Not long after, Carolina's graceful figure appeared at the top of a mountain.
Looking around from the mountain peak, the clouds floated beneath her feet. It was a vast expanse of whiteness. Due to the high altitude, the snow here had never melted.
Her Royal Highness was still wearing a dark red close-fitting robe. Faint blue light flashed around her body. That was a magical shield used to stabilize the elements.
Although dragons were not afraid of the cold and heat, as a spellcaster, it was necessary to maintain the stability of the elements around her at all times.
The shield blocked the cold air outside. Carolina looked a little anxious as if she was worried about something.
After leaving the Dragon Territory, Carolina didn't go to Oditore to search for many things as she had promised. Instead, she crossed the entire Roslorian continent and arrived at the extreme north in order to search for one thing.
Evelyn Carolina, the leader of the Red Dragon race and the mother of Lexstrasza Carolina, told the Tenth Grade Superior Red Dragon a shocking truth.
Nairíos's corpse was scattered all over the continent!
As the guardian of the elements, the supra champion Evelyn discovered that Nairíos's aura was scattered all over the continent. This was the feedback from the entire Red Dragon race and the remaining Dark Dragons.
Nairíos's dragon crystal was found in the Holy Land of Ciaran. His head was near Sirius, and his dragon claws were found in Karo. What about the rest?
Evelyn could only sigh at Nairíos's death. The death of a genius was a huge loss to the Dark Dragon race. However, Carolina told her that there was a human who had Nairíos's aura and could absorb the dragon skeleton!
What did this mean?
Was it really as Carolina had guessed, that Nairíos did not die, but was reborn in a new body on this continent?
After all, the aura of a dragon was like a fingerprint. Every one of them was unique. Many auras could not belong to others. Carolina could swear on her life.
So what was the cause of all this?
Evelyn did not understand. There had never been such a thing in the history of the Dragon race. As the Elemental Lord, she was very interested in what happened to Dark Dragon Nairíos.
Carolina came here under her mother's command because Nairíos's aura had appeared here before.
Half a year ago, Evelyn suddenly felt this aura appear all over the continent. However, it was only for a fleeting moment. She thought that it was Nairíos trying something again and did not take it to heart.
Nerios was also a powerhouse who had surpassed level 10, and his achievements had even surpassed his father's. He controlled the power of the world's laws, which was different from the elements. This power was more mysterious and powerful, and it was a power that ordinary people could not understand.
Changing the order and laws was something that ordinary people could not even imagine.
Everything had its own path. The purpose of the existence of the Dark Dragon race was to use this power to pull things that were off track back to their path. Evelyn was not surprised that Nairíos's aura suddenly appeared all over the continent. However, she did not expect that Nairíos would suddenly become like this!
Following the direction that her mother pointed, Carolina arrived at the huge mountain that pierced through the clouds.
It had to be said that for a super champion like Evelyn, her ability to control and distinguish the elements was already at the peak of this world. The characteristics of Nairíos's aura were very obvious. To the red dragon chief who was on the other side of the continent, Nairíos's aura was like a lighthouse in the dark.
Dragons were very sensitive to each other's aura. Evelyn remembered the approximate location of Nairíos's aura clearly.
Therefore, Carolina followed her mother's request to search for the specific location of the dragon's skeleton. Her mother only mentioned the name of a mountain. To Carolina, it was not difficult to find this place. The difficult part was how to find the dragon's skeleton that was like a drop in the ocean in this vast snowy mountain.
As this was the peak, a bone-chilling snowstorm was wreaking havoc. The snow and ice seemed to be drifting horizontally. The conditions were very harsh.
Carolina seemed to be rooted in this snowstorm as she walked step by step.
She was carefully sensing the magical waves in the surroundings, and a pair of red pupils were flickering with a faint light.
As she slowly walked down from the peak, the thick snow did not reach Carolina's delicate ankles. Instead, every step she took left a faint footprint on the snow. After she walked, the footprints disappeared with the strong wind.
Carolina's fiery red hair hung straight on both sides. Her dragon horns were still elegantly tucked behind her back. She held a badge in her hand. Between her slender fingers, one could vaguely see the rose and the thin symbol of a gun barrel on the badge. This was the badge that many mercenary groups gave out when they were established. Now, it had become the hope that she held in her hand when she missed it.
While in the air, Carolina felt a faint fluctuation coming towards her. It was almost the same as the location her mother had mentioned. However, Carolina decided to be cautious and decided to walk there.
Dragons were not the only powerful creatures on the continent. Although there were very few species that could compete with dragons, it did not mean that they did not exist.
Therefore, when entering this unfamiliar place, Carolina did not use her huge dragon body. Instead, she carefully sensed the surrounding environment and the waves and walked towards the location that she sensed.
The strong sunlight softened as the sun gradually sank into the distant horizon. Karolina's footsteps came to a halt, but she frowned and looked around.
She originally thought that she would be able to find her target soon after walking down from the peak. However, she did not expect that the wave was faintly discernible and gradually became erratic as time passed.
This situation made Carolina feel very strange.
Because now, she was sure that what was scattered around the continent by Nairíos were only his remains. It was impossible for his remains to be able to walk on their own, right?
Could it be that someone is moving?
Carolina faintly felt a bad premonition in her heart. She immediately raised her hand and made a casting gesture. Her body gently floated up and her speed increased a little.
However, as she continued to walk down the mountain, Carolina found that the aura seemed to be getting weaker and weaker.
She stopped and tried to identify it carefully, but she found that the faint wave seemed to be deliberately playing tricks on her. There was no way to locate it at all!
Karolina's mood became slightly impatient.
The sky had turned completely dark, and the moonlight shone on the snow-white ground, casting sparkling reflections. Carolina began to search horizontally around the mountain in an attempt to identify the origin of the aura. However, she gave up after flying a small circle.
That was because Carolina realized that she seemed to have entered a misunderstanding.
She was not stupid. She quickly thought of a possibility — could it be that the mountain was hollow?
Was Nairíos's dragon skeleton in this mountain?
The structure of the Dragon Territory made it not difficult for her to think of this possibility. However, she was a little discouraged — this was not the Dragon Territory. She did not know where the entrance was at all!
Stopping in her tracks, Carolina increasingly felt that there was something fishy about this matter.
The cold night wind whistled past, but it was still blocked by the magic shield. Carolina stood on the edge of a dangerous cliff and looked at the towering mountain in front of her.
Because the angle of the cliff was almost vertical, there was not much snow on it. She could see the greyish-black mountain. Carolina took a few light steps, squinted her eyes, and placed her hand on the mountain.
No.
Carolina's frown deepened. She looked up at the towering mountain and shook her head in disbelief. "It's impossible …"
She turned around and looked at the bottomless cliff behind her, then turned to look at the mountain in front of her. She then gently raised her right hand.
A soft pale yellow light suddenly appeared in her palm. Carolina gently pushed it forward, and the light enveloped the mountain in front of her.
However, after the light disappeared, the sturdy mountain did not react at all.
"A top-tier illusion?"
Carolina couldn't help but exclaim — this was not a real mountain!
It was an illusion cast by someone!
What kind of power was this?
How could it turn the entire mountain into an illusion?!
This was definitely not something that an ordinary strong person could do!
Carolina almost immediately took a few steps back, then suddenly jumped down the cliff. Her body flew into the air, and in a beam of light, she turned into a huge dragon!
The huge dragon wings suddenly flapped, and Carolina quickly flew to the periphery of the mountain!
After flying for more than ten minutes, Carolina suddenly dived down and landed in a flat area.
This place was already out of the range of the mountain, and the surrounding area was a barren plain. Occasionally, there were a few short trees, and the place seemed quiet under the moonlight.
Carolina calmed her somewhat anxious heart, gritted her teeth, and decided to continue exploring.
To be able to cast an illusion that even she could not recognize, there was no doubt about the level of the caster. However, Carolina would not give up just like that. Ordinary people could not understand how important Nairíos' remains were to her.
Carolina walked step by step towards the mountain. If she wanted to know where the boundary of the illusion was, she could only explore bit by bit. There was no other way.
With the strength of a tenth rank, when faced with a higher level illusion, she could only clumsily look for flaws.
Time passed slowly. Carolina concentrated and tried hard to find the trace of undetectable fluctuation in the air. She tightly pursed her lips and stretched out her hands slightly, as if she was touching the erratic elemental aura in the air.
Suddenly, Karolina's footsteps stopped as she looked ahead.
The moonlight was still quietly shining on the ground, reflecting a faint silver-white light. The grass and trees on the ground were clearly visible, but there was nothing out of the ordinary.
Carolina did not take a step forward. Instead, she gently pointed to the sky and began chanting an incantation. Then, snowflakes fluttered down with a blue luster. The range of these snowflakes gradually increased, and finally enveloped an area of a few hundred square meters.
As if being blocked by something, the faintly glowing snowflakes stuck to a huge "air wall" that could not be seen by the naked eye. When the entire incantation was completed, the faint blue luster had clearly revealed the boundary in front of Carolina.
The release of the incantation made Carolina slightly tired. However, this seventh rank "Dust of Truth" spell was indeed effective.
A barrier flickering with a faint blue light appeared in front of her. This was the edge of the illusory wall.
Logically, illusory spells generally existed in the form of a hemispherical boundary. However, at this moment, the small part of the illusory wall that she saw was like a tall, flat wall. There was not the slightest curve. This was enough to let people imagine the scope of the boundary, and how astonishing it was!
Breaking an illusory spell was a very difficult thing to do. Especially for this kind of boundary that was cast by a person of a higher rank than oneself.
Being able to make it appear had already proved Carolina's attainments in magic. However, what she needed to find inside the boundary was what she needed to explore.
Carolina hesitated for a moment. In fact, in the face of this kind of boundary released by a person of a higher rank, she needed to be careful no matter what. In her heart, she was considering whether she should seek help from her mother.
However, years of self-confidence and eagerness to find the skeleton won out. Carolina pursed her lips and decided to face this boundary by herself.
The function of an illusory boundary was to make people unable to distinguish what was inside the boundary. When people accidentally walked into the boundary, what they saw, touched, heard, and even smelled was all an illusion.
It could be said that the moment one entered the boundary, the person who was affected by the illusion had entered another space!
The more advanced the illusory spell was, the more difficult it was to distinguish where the boundary of the boundary was.
As a direct superior elemental dragon, Carolina's sensitivity to the elements in the air could be said to be beyond the ability of this level. Thus, she could accurately find the boundary of the boundary.
A faint fluorescent light flickered. Carolina frowned and thought about how to enter the boundary.
What was inside the boundary?
Was there anything else besides the dragon skeleton?
Carolina's heart was also filled with curiosity. However, after so many years of battle and growth, she had become more cautious. She slowly walked to the front of the barrier and quietly looked at it, thinking of a countermeasure.
After a long while, Carolina gently raised her hand, and a blazing flame instantly burned around her palm. However, this flame was abnormally quiet and did not move at all. It quietly burned like a ring of fire.
Then, the brightness of the ring of fire gradually increased, from the initial orange color to a blazing white!
The temperature instantly melted the surrounding ice and snow, and the air distorted because of the high temperature.
However, there seemed to be an invisible shield around Carolina's body, and she was not affected by the high temperature at all. When the ring of fire in her hand turned into a dazzling pure white, she gently pushed it forward, causing the ring of fire to directly attach to the surface of the boundary.
This was no longer a simple fire magic. When any kind of element was used to the extreme, it would have unimaginable power and effect.
The moment the ring of fire touched the boundary, it flickered slightly, and then suddenly melted like ice that was poured with boiling water!
The boundary was actually destroyed so easily!
The ring of fire gradually grew in Carolina's hand, and the edge of the melted boundary expanded into a circle as tall as a person.
The faint flame flickered slightly. Carolina frowned, feeling that this boundary should not have been broken on the first try. However, the reality placed in front of her made her believe that she had really broken this super grade illusion boundary!
The moonlight still shone on the snow-white ground, but a strange scene appeared in front of her.
In this wilderness, in front of a woman in red, there was a "mirror" that flashed with light, but the scene in the mirror was very different from the surroundings!
The surroundings were snow-white, and a cold wind blew. A bleak atmosphere filled the air. However, inside the boundary, it was a scene of spring!
Yes, inside the boundary that was broken like a mirror, there was a scene of green grass and blooming flowers!
When the wind blew, the flowers swayed gently, and even dew drops could be seen gently sliding down.
Carolina raised her head and looked at the huge barrier. She hesitated for a moment, but still walked in.
What appeared in front of her seemed to be another world. The cold winter and snow mountain scenery outside the boundary did not exist here at all. A gust of wind blew, and it was actually warm. The ground was full of green flowers and trees, and occasionally one or two flowers dotted it, it was extremely beautiful under the moonlight!
Carolina was also stunned by the scene in front of her. She raised her head in surprise, and found that the sky inside and outside the boundary seemed to be the same, but the season was reversed — or rather, the environment was reversed!
