Chapter 551: Tide Surge (II)
The snow disappears from the top of a nameless mountain that is revered as a 'sacred mountain' by the people of the Eagle Principality.
Even though there is direct sunlight every day, it is the first time in hundreds or thousands of years that the mountains above the halfway point have not been fully exposed to the air for many years.
The snow and ice had faded, revealing a black mountain, and at Grush's feet was a black stone, a wide plane on the top of the mountain, and the rest of the place was revealed after the snow melted.
Steep rocks are scattered all over the mountaintop, and some of the rocks are so 'far away' that ordinary people would not have been able to climb to the top of this high mountain if it weren't for a being of extraordinary power like Grush.
The joy of reaching the summit did not stop in the paladin's heart for long, and Grush, who had been washed away in his heart, lowered his head and looked at a certain position halfway up the mountain.
Just now, when he presented the [Legendary Posture] to the world, he seemed to feel that something was calling to him halfway up the mountain.
It wasn't the direction he was walking in, it was the other side, but at this moment, he suddenly became curious about the feeling, and wanted to see what was calling to him.
When the snow melts, it turns into a trickle and flows downward, and the water flows over the mountain, and the long stream of water with warmth melts the snow off the road and flows slowly towards the ground.
The warmth carried by the water didn't melt much of the snow, so Grush wasn't worried about a 'flood', and after being curious about something somewhere halfway up the mountain, he walked slowly towards it.
It was on the south side of the mountain, and he came from the north, and the wind and snow along the way could not hide his footprints, which would remain for at least a few months before slowly disappearing.
Grush is not a saint, he is not a demigod, he is just a legend, but this is the power of 'legend'.
Along the way, he was brewing his strength, and after reaching the top, he released it all, like the sun shining on the earth, and the power exploded in all directions in an instant, shattering the clouds and mist, and breaking the wind.
The thin air on the top of the mountain would not have prevented him from exerting all his strength, and if it weren't for the extreme environment of the 'Lava Lake', he would not be affected now.
Now he can even catch the mage's [Fireball Technique] with his bare hands, which is the power of 'Legend'.
Before, he was just a weak man with legendary power, but now he has really mastered this power, and this power is constantly affecting his body and soul, and only when the body and soul finally become a whole will he be a complete 'legend'.
The call was gone in a flash, and if it had been Grush before, he might not have been able to notice, but now it was different.
Walking barefoot on the somewhat wet snow, the warmth welled up from the soles of his feet, and the gurgling water reflected the sunlight, as if paving a glorious path for him.
Grush didn't walk fast, it was like a walk, not in a hurry or slow.
It took him three days and three nights to reach the summit, but it only took him half a day, and by the time the sun was deflecting from the top of his head to the west, he was already halfway up the mountain.
Stepping on the ground, Grush looked left and right in confusion.
"Nothing?"
After muttering to himself, the paladin raised his hand to summon a ray of holy light, and then the call came again, and this time in the direction of his feet, in the mountain!
Grush looked down, his face full of confusion, "What the hell is it......
In this high mountain, which the people of the Eagle Principality call 'Sacred Mountain', there is something hidden that can react with the holy light released by him?
It stands to reason that this high mountain has also been climbed by a large number of monks, and it is even famous far and wide, and many holy warriors from outside the Burning Eagle Plateau will also come here to look at this high mountain.
But why didn't they find out, but they did?
Grush was a little confused, but this was something that could react with the Light, and it shouldn't be something evil.
This mountain is just a spiritual symbol of the Eagle Man, in fact, the Arcanists of the Arcane Empire have also explored it on the ground, there is nothing magical here, and it does not possess great magical power, it is just a simple mountain.
After standing there and thinking for a moment, Grush put his backpack aside and used his own hands to dig into the mountain, which had been somewhat hard from the perennial freezing.
A little rubble could not cut through the paladin's skin, so when he was hungry, he ate a few bites of the jerky he had bought from the herders along the way, and when he was thirsty, he picked up a handful of snow and nibbled on a few bites.
It was night, the stars were shining, the gentle moonlight was blowing through Grush's body, there was no wind or snow tonight, and he sat on the edge of the hole he had dug out, and his backpack had been placed inside.
It was already close, and after summoning the light again, he confirmed the distance between himself and the thing.
Following the moonlight, Grush's gaze was cast into the depths of the cavern, which he could not have imagined before that he had spent an afternoon and an evening digging out.
It was about thirty feet deep from the entrance to the end and nearly seven feet high, and he did some simple consolidation work to keep the cave from collapsing.
It wasn't too difficult for him, but it filled his mind with doubts.
It was because his current position was not far from where the thing was that he stopped, not daring to continue digging deeper.
How long has the thing buried in the mountain been in this high mountain, why is it that only he senses it, only he hears the call, and no one else has it.
Sensing that something was not quite right, Grush stopped digging and sat down to think slowly.
What happened to him? Why did he stop when he heard that call, instead of spreading his 'way of justice' and not helping the weak, he was wasting his time here?
The Holy Warrior knew that he was not yet a complete 'legend', he had been directly promoted, and compared to other legends, he had gone a lot less and experienced many setbacks.
It's not just that his will is not strong enough, his martial arts and spirit have not been sharpened to the extreme, so he is not a complete legend now.
However, after going through that ascetic journey, he washed away the lead and strengthened his faith, and even the divine power left by the god of justice could not affect his spirit, but ...... Why? Why is he sitting in the mouth of this cave that he dug out of himself?
All of this was not normal, but now that thing, that thing's call to him was getting stronger and stronger, and after the last time he summoned the Holy Light to confirm his distance from that thing, even if he didn't do anything, he could hear a faint 'call' in his ears.
Was he misjudged? It wasn't actually a 'harmless' thing, but an evil thing?
If it was really righteous and could echo the Light, how could there be such a practice that would only be used by evil gods?
Perhaps it was just a delusion on his part to respond to the Light and call out, and that it might just be 'tricking' him.
However, this is the sacred mountain of the Eagle Man......
Picking up his sword and justice, Grush turned and walked towards the end of the cavern.
If it is something evil, it is his fault to destroy it, and if it is left unchecked, others may be harmed.
Not everyone has the power of a 'legend', it's only halfway up the mountain, and although not everyone can climb it, there are quite a few people who can climb it.
"It's ......"
Pushing back the dirt, a sword hilt hidden in the mountain was revealed, and appeared in front of Grush's eyes.
Even if it was only a sword hilt exposed, the blazing divine aura on it had already taken Grushh by surprise.
Grush put his sword back into its sheath, then grasped the hilt of it with his right hand and pulled out the sword hidden in the sacred mountain. ()
