Chapter 3609

The underground tunnel that Xia De and his party walked through on Friday connects the normal world with that star boundary fragment, and the junction of reality and the starry sky is located behind the tomb, so the tomb still exists today.

Elder Haralder and the others planned to find a free time to go to that underground tomb to take a look together, at least to pay homage to the ancestors buried there.

And Claire set her sights on the star-light ores located behind the tomb. She and Vanessa both knew the value of those ores, although they were not as good as the "star fragments" left after the main body of the Star-Falling Beast perished, they were still supernatural materials rarely seen in the current era.

And since the ore vein is located behind the ancestor's tomb, Claire believed that this is something owned by the Fatuman people.

Of course, excavating those ore veins is not something that should be done now. The most important thing today is still Stella's ceremony.

When Xia De and Miss Ai Si Bo Ge arrived in the town, Claire and the others were just about to set off for the mountain. The ceremony would certainly not be held in the town.

In addition to Claire, Stella, Elder Haralder, and Elder Ursa, there were also several priestesses in the town and Claire's followers following. After Xia De and the three ladies of the Choir joined the team, Xia De found that Fu Luo La was also in the team with Miss Bell.

"Xivi and the others have their own things to do. I have nothing to deal with for the time being, so I followed to help, and it is also considered to be sketching on the mountain."

The artist lady explained it this way.

The ceremony needs to be held in a cold pool in the snow mountain. Cold pool does not refer to the lower spring or middle spring, but refers to the natural water pool naturally formed in the snow mountain.

Every time a similar ceremony is held, the corresponding cold pool cannot hold a second ceremony within a hundred years. But fortunately, the Fatumengster Snow Mountain is large enough, and there are not so many objects for the Fatuman people to hold ceremonies for.

The cold pool Claire chose for her apprentice this time is located high up the mountain. She quietly told Xia De:

"The higher the position of the cold pool, the better the effect of the ceremony."

"Claire, have you held this ceremony?"

Fu Luo La asked curiously, while Miss Bell followed her wearing a very thick white-furred hat. The pale girl is actually not afraid of cold at all, or rather, she is actually more afraid of heat.

When Xia De looked at her, he thought that if there was nothing to do today, he could play a few games of Rhodes cards with her according to the promise of last year.

"I don't need this kind of ceremony to improve my talent."

The platinum-haired witch said slightly proudly. Fu Luo La just smiled on the side and didn't comment, while Xia De looked at Stella and the other girls holding a pile of ritual supplies:

"I thought you would bring Little Liana and Ellie out. They can help carry some things."

"Xia De, don't treat unicorns as horses for pulling goods. Those cute and beautiful creatures are not responsible for this."

Claire said to Xia De again. Today Ellie and Little Liana are resting in the unicorn nest. After experiencing that big battle on Friday, Ellie's consumption is also very large.

That stone piano was also brought out together, carried by Stella, to test the effect after the ceremony. Xia De found that the piano seemed to have become smaller, and Claire patted Stella's shoulder somewhat proudly:

"When Stella touched this piano on Saturday morning, a lot of stone chips fell off the surface of the piano."

Miss Ai Si Bo Ge said with a smile:

"This shows that she is already very close to the requirements for using this piano. It seems that Friday's adventure has brought considerable gains to Larson."

Seeing everyone talking about herself, the white-haired girl explained to Xia De softly:

"When facing the Star-Falling Beast on Friday, I felt that I could mobilize part of the power of the 'Brand of Frozen Punishment'."

"Hmm... is it the influence of pink perfume?"

Xia De asked with some worry. He didn't want anyone to have anything to do with that mermaid, but fortunately Stella shook her head quickly:

"No, it's that I figured out some things myself."

She clenched her right fist and placed it on her left chest, but because she was wearing thick gloves, it looked very interesting.

"I used to regard the power of ice and snow as eternal loneliness and indifference, but after seeing various stories on the island, during that big battle on Friday, I realized that perhaps the power suitable for me is not the unmelting solid ice, but the flying snowflakes."

She was a little embarrassed to look at Xia De:

"Past beautiful memories and warm feelings melted the coldness in my chest, plus the power of the sun I already possessed, finally turned the unmelting ice into flying snow, so I could mobilize that power."

"That's why I said Stella has always been very talented, but she is still too young, and her life experience is insufficient, making it difficult for her to figure out some simple things."

Claire continued to praise her apprentice, but in fact, Claire's application of ice and snow power is more biased towards "ice". But she would not let power affect herself. The great witch of the sun seat will always have a hot heart. She, like existence using sun power such as Little Mia and Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, can actively radiate warmth.

In this regard, her talent far exceeds her apprentice.

"We also brought that stone slab."

Claire said, and handed the only thing she was carrying to Xia De. That was the stone slab found in the secret room of the tomb.

The stars fell three times on Friday. The first time was completely blocked by Stella, the second time was intercepted by Emilia for a few seconds, and the third time was the continuation of the second time. The star entered the material world and was shattered by Yin Yi Yi Lu Na's shot.

The first time, while Stella erupted with power, this stone slab also flew in front of her. Yesterday when Xia De was not there, Claire also took the stone slab to ask the great elders, but no one knew what this was.

The stone slab has no change at this time, it is still engraved with a circle on one side, and the letters left by the ancient Fatuman people on the other side.

"This should not be a divine art item related to the Lord."

This is Miss Ai Si Bo Ge's judgment, and Xia De guessed:

"Could this be the Ring of Destiny related to ice and snow?"

Others have had such thoughts, but the stone slab cannot be opened now. Even if it is really destiny inside, obviously destiny has not yet reached the moment it should manifest.

After leaving the town area, the group flew to the high place of the snow mountain against the blizzard. Stella doesn't need others to assist in flying this time. After the fourth act of the story ended, she gained new power again. Flying with snowflakes is just one of them.

Even Miss Bell doesn't need others to assist in flying. Although her transformation spell is not as exquisite as Fu Luo La's, turning into a bird is no problem.

But the problem is that the blizzard is really too big. The gray pigeon that Miss Bell turned into was almost blown away by the howling wind while flying, so Xia De, who was closest to her, grabbed the pigeon and stuffed it into his arms.

Fu Luo La was originally following Xia De in human form. Seeing him do this, she turned into a white owl and bumped into Xia De's arms.

Claire on the side felt that her colleague was very childish, but in fact, she was also a little envious in her heart.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the group arrived at the destination against the wind and snow. There are some very strange cold pools that will not be frozen in the Fatumengster Snow Mountain, so it is very easy to notice it in the snow.

Everyone camped nearby first, and then arranged the ceremony. Stella will jump into that cold pool in a while, and needs to stay for a long time. The two elders estimated that everyone would not go back until the afternoon.

Xia De didn't know the specific situation of the ceremony, so when others were preparing for the ceremony, except for trying the new miracle 【Lost Curtain】 obtained from 【Witch Echo · Violet】 to cover the camp location, he didn't do anything else.

When everyone was busy, he focused on building the bonfire. The bonfire in the snow really makes people feel better. Miss Ai Si Bo Ge didn't actually go to help prepare for the ceremony. After all, she was just a guest who came to watch the ceremony.

So while others were not there, she also sat by Xia De's side, this time not discussing business:

"You and Dan Dac Nisi Te, what is your relationship now?"

She thought this was not that she wanted to pry into her friend's privacy, just caring about her old friend. Xia De looked up to confirm that no one was listening to the conversation here, and then said softly:

"It's the kind of relationship you think."

"Is it a relatively traditional apprentice relationship, or a relatively simple... emotional relationship?"

She tried hard not to let herself look too curious, and Xia De thought for a while before understanding the difference between these two statements.

"Emotional relationship, Dan Dac Nisi Te did not use power for personal gain."

Miss Ai Si Bo Ge then raised her eyebrows at Xia De:

"So, actually, you took the initiative? How did you do it? No, don't answer me. If you tell me, Dan Dac Nisi Te will come to trouble me afterwards. I knew her when she was still studying at St. Byrons. I am too familiar with this person."

Xia De originally wanted to explain the relationship between the two, but suddenly realized one thing:

"Miss Ai Si Bo Ge, so you also know Miss Helena Carter, right?"

"Of course, 'Moon Spellcaster' can be considered the first thirteen-ring sorceress I came into contact with."

She was not surprised that Xia De knew this name:

"However, Miss Carter disappeared many years ago. Dan Dac Nisi Te has been looking for her. She said she had some gains before the Year-End Festival last year, but so many years have passed, I hope she won't be too disappointed when the time comes."

She was implicitly expressing her lack of hope, and Xia De asked again:

"Dan Dac Nisi Te told me that she found the traces left by the Sage of the Moon in the material world before leaving before Miss Carter disappeared. Did Miss Carter talk to you about similar topics?"

The female sorceress in a dark blue dress recalled carefully:

"No, I didn't have the power I have now when that lady left, and no one would talk to me about topics related to Old Gods at that time. But if Miss Carter really disappeared in the process of pursuing the Old God, then this should be considered a kind of glory."

The two chatted for half an hour. During this period, the ceremony arranged around the cold pool was basically prepared. The "Winter Fragment" brought from the underground tomb was finally put into the cold pool. Suddenly, a stream of extreme cold frost swept across the snow surface, and even with Xia De's protection, it almost extinguished the bonfire in front of him.
