Within the cave in the snow mountain, a giant's violet ice sculpture lay without any movement, but there seemed to be a faint violet glow pulsing over this giant's head like a heartbeat.
Suddenly, the violet pulse vanished, and the violet ice around his body started to tremble before cracks appeared all over it. The next moment, 'boom,' with a blast, the ice shattered like glass, and the person within was freed!
Jacob's breathing was rigid, and faint blue ice breath was coming out of his mouth and nose. 'That was extremely dangerous!'
He thought with a lingering fear as he almost felt like he was going to freeze to death, and the reason for it was his own carelessness. But he never expected that by touching that exotic plant with his soul force would have such a reaction.
Not only was his entire body frozen, and even his mind nearly went blank, but he quickly reacted by accelerating his blood and somehow preserving thought in that torturous coldness.
Furthermore, once he was in equilibrium with that iciness, he found that his soul force started to increase, and many things he didn't understand from the blood glyph becclear to him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was an extremely strange state, and if he had another choice, he might do the sthing. But he knew that the exotic plant might be one of its kind and that he might never find it again.
Just now, he was finally able to regain his senses and break free from that strange state. Instead of feeling tired or having a strangely light head, except for the empty stomach because of the use of fluid acceleration, he was completely fine, even better.
Jacob quickly crawled out of the small cave. When he looked around, he was surprised to find that his vision was no longer obstructed or limited by that strange fog; in fact, he could see everything clearly!
This was evident in the increase in his soul force, which is reflected in his vision.
'What an unexpected gain. I wonder how my soul force is now compared to that of a real Fable Legendary State expert. I will be able to stay longer in the immortal chapter now, and the telekinesis also seems to have becmore powerful.
'I was only able to lift around fifty kg of weight before; I wonder what my new limit is. Nonetheless, I better recover that key first. Furthermore, I can't be careless in this place, after all. With this kind of treasure, those two beyond unique rank magic beasts, and lastly, that thing in the sky, this place is not to be underestimated!
'And I can't use my soul force to pick things that I don't understand anymore. I'd rather use my hands since the soul is a person's core, and if I accidentally pick up something poisonous, I won't have my life to regret it.'
Jacob still felt lingering fear about the incident, so he vowed not to use his soul force just to protect his body. The telekinesis, after all, wasn't what he was expecting. This ability was directly connected with his soul, and he didn't dare take a risk with his soul.
Afterward, he took out a frozen wolf belonging to the giant white wolf faction, directly melted the ice with his fire and then skinned the peak unique rank beast, and then roosted the entire eight-meter beast and ate it, including bones!
It took him only ten minutes to complete all this, and then he was finally full. Then, using the flying disc, he again began to descend the mountain carefully.
'This rare rank disc is too slow fornow; it's only useful for this kind of thing now. Although I had managed to deduct its materials and even make it, I couldn't seem to find the optimal materials to make a unique rank disc. I can't find a good replacement for the rare rank soft aluminum used in its base. Then there's another strange material that even Nyx can't analyze yet; my knowledge is not enough.
'I wonder if that mysterious assassin organization is really part of the ATLAS since I never heard or found any clues about them again…' Jacob mused as he remembered those faceless assassins he encountered in the rare plains.
Thereupon, Jacob soon reached the base of the mountain, and the fog was extremely thin. However, he was astounded when he found that a tree forest surrounded the mountain.
Those trees were completely white, and the leaves on them were sky blue, just like translucent crystals, and extremely beautiful.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJacob didn't stay to admire the beauty of this place; even from this distance, he could see different shades of particles rising within this forest, which was filled with magic beasts.
So, he decided to stop using the flying disc because its slow speed and stealth form were easily detectable. He confirmed the direction on the map, which was still around eight hundred miles away from his position, and he quickly darted towards it while avoiding the magic beasts.
Soon, Jacob noticed the sky of this place was filled with fog that he saw on the mountain, and when the sun started to rise, the light passed thought that the fog was extremely dim.
Furthermore, the white tree forest stretched for several hundred miles, and when he exited it, he found himself on a barren rocky plain covered with frost. Far away, he could see a wall of dense gray mist that was completely out of place.
Jacob frowned because the location of the legendary key was somewhere in that mist wall and mused, 'Just how did Free Sword enter this place with all those vicious beasts more powerful than them wandering around? Or since I arrived with the flying ship, I ended up in the core area, and the key is hidden in the outskirts? If I had used the water pathway instead, maybe I would've arrived here from the other side…'
This was the only explanation he could think of, so he didn't stop and continued towards the mist wall. The rocky plain seemed empty, and if someone saw them from the sky, it would look like a line between the forest and the mist wall.
When he reached the mist wall, Jacob didn't find any particles in the mist, so he was less worried. The path ahead was the sas the rocky plain, so he entered without hesitation.
But when he was a few miles inside this dense mist, he stopped because in front of him appeared a vast frozen river, and not too far away was a frozen waterfall!
However, what made Jacob stop was the sense of danger suddenly arousing upon reaching this place!
