Chapter 3771

Although the stone door blocked the rear, the wind and sand still blew out from the back through that stone, as if the stone door were just an illusion. And on the stone door was carved a snake mark, which was not the Ouroboros mark of "Mr. Ring," but a strange black two-headed snake mark. Xia De guessed this was the emblem of "Mr. Snake" himself.

The power permeating from the area behind the door was already completely at the level of "Before the End." Now that he had not yet obtained the second Ring of Destiny and the 【Night Watchman】 was not in his hands, Xia De would certainly not rush in like this.

He stared at the stone door at the end of the passage, imagining what the scene behind the door might be like. At this time, the light ball illuminated the walls on both sides of this dark corridor, and some murals severely corroded by the wind and sand came into view.

The corridor belonged to the area that originally existed in the temple, and what was painted in the corridor was the scenery of the place where these believers of destiny gathered in the past. These sceneries dissipated at the end of the First Era, but the Outsider standing in the current era of the Sixth Era could still glimpse the style of that initial era from them.

"Did the last diviner who left here also look back here? What is different about what he or she saw from what I see?"

The Outsider thought at this moment, took two steps into the corridor blowing with yellow sand, and then saw the spring described on the mural. The gurgling water flowing down from the rock wall formed a small pool under the rock wall. Although the colors of the mural had peeled off, Xia De understood that this was the place where Stella and the others were currently searching.

Ten minutes ago, in the northern part of the summit ruins, below the side of the cliff with the 【Oracle Plaza】 and the 【Saint's Cliff】.

The cliff was almost at a right angle, and years of snow and ice covered the rock wall, making it almost impossible to distinguish the original color of the rock wall. There was nothing here at first glance, but Aili, who was happily carrying Little Mia, came straight toward here.

Following behind her were Little Liana and Flora in unicorn form, while Stella, Dorothy, and Princess Lei Qianya were behind the unicorns.

However, after arriving under the cliff, Aili did not make any further moves, but stopped suspiciously to observe left and right, then came under the cliff and poked her head to sniff around. That appearance—

"It really looks like Little Mia."

Princess Lei Qianya said, and Dorothy also nodded on the side. The princess and the writer were dressed similarly tonight, except that one's scarf was red and the other's was yellow.

Little Liana then followed Aili's side, learning her movements and sniffing around, while the only one of the three unicorns that looked like an adult turned back into Flora's appearance in the light.

At the same time as Flora reappeared, the Ring of Destiny behind Aili appeared automatically, and then the Miracle Spirit Rune - 【Self】 appeared on the 5th-tier Ring of Destiny. This was clearly the power obtained by establishing a connection with Flora.

Flora had heard on the ship that Aili was already a sorcerer, so she was not surprised by this. She mentioned another thing:

"Unicorns have the characteristic of convergent racial evolution."

She explained to Dorothy, Princess Lei Qianya, and Stella:

"Specifically, unicorns living in the same group often possess the same power. For example, once the first unicorn with the power of the moon appears in the group, soon most of the unicorns in the entire group will master this power. This characteristic of convergent racial evolution cannot be explained by theory; it belongs to the bloodline power of unicorns.

Aili can now connect with existences related to herself and obtain power through destiny. Her personal talent plus the racial talent of unicorns makes it easier for her to establish a connection with me, who has transformed into a unicorn."

"Aili is really a 5th-tier sorcerer now... If Aili lives with the unicorn group of Saint Byron in the future, will Saint Byron welcome a large number of humanoid unicorns in the next ten years?"

Dorothy guessed on the side, snow falling one after another, dyeing their blonde and red hair white.

Flora thought this was quite possible, but these were all things for later.

She asked Stella again:

"Can you feel anything here?"

Stella, who was carrying 【Frost Mourning】, nodded:

"The Upper Spring should be here. After getting close to this area, I can also sense something calling me here. I'll go help Aili find it."

Saying this, she also walked to the cliff wall to investigate. Seeing Stella with her back to them, Flora whispered to Princess Lei Qianya and Dorothy on the side again:

"You saw it just now, right? Xiwei also became a 13th-tier? How did she ascend? Did you see it?"

Flora went from the ship to the summit to support. When she arrived, Xiwei was already a 13th-tier Great Witch. And Princess Lei Qianya and Dorothy could certainly guess why Xiwei ascended, but there was no need to explain this matter clearly.

The two didn't need to look at each other to understand each other's thoughts. Princess Lei Qianya said vaguely:

"It probably has something to do with Xia De. You can ask him yourself later. I don't know if Xia De has arrived at the summit now... Aili seems to have found it."

The pure white little beast sniffing around knocked a few times on the rock wall covered with ice and snow with her horn, then let out an "Ang~" sound, letting Little Liana and Stella step back.

She also stepped back a few steps, and after a run-up, a fierce charge made her whole body overflow with silver moonlight. While her body gradually became transparent, her four hooves stepped on the air and leaped lightly into the air, then hit the position about ten meters above the cliff wall with her head.

With a "Bang~" sound, Aili was bounced back after the impact. However, before falling to the ground, she turned back into a human form and was caught by Flora below, while the cat jumped onto Dorothy's head quite nimbly, then jumped again, and landed on Little Liana's soft back while she shivered suddenly.

Aili, held by the witch, looked at the cliff wall with her pale silver-gray eyes. Although the cliff wall was not shattered by her, the impact still left a dent on the cliff wall.

At this moment, gurgling clear water flowed down from the depression, and the cracks on the cliff wall became larger and larger. After just half a minute, clear water flowed down from the cliff wall like a waterfall.

This water even carried some temperature. After landing, it melted the snow on the ground and gradually formed a small pool of steaming water on the ground.

"Is this the Upper Spring?"

Dorothy asked. Humanoid Aili immediately shook her head, jumped from Flora's arms to the snow, ran forward barefoot on the snow, and disappeared after crossing the "waterfall."

Little Liana, Stella, Flora, Princess Lei Qianya, and Dorothy followed together. Behind the "waterfall" looked like a solid cliff wall, but after truly passing through, they found that the back of the waterfall had become a cave at this moment.

Along the cave entrance inward was a tunnel dug by hand. The tunnel was not long, and a row of rotten short wooden stakes were inserted on both sides, and the wooden stakes were tied with faded red silk cloth.

After the tunnel extended for more than 20 meters, the space suddenly opened up. The clear spring emitting a soft light was at the end of the tunnel. Although its area could not be counted as a lake, it was at least much larger than the hot spring of the "Moon Sanctuary."

The four corners of the spring each had a golden Ouroboros relief, and the spring water flowed out from the center of the curled Ouroboros, falling into the pool below with a splash. Although the liquid in the pool was clear, it had a pearlescent luster, and the rippling waves floating on it were reflected on the top of the cave above the pool.

Although there was no stone tablet marking the name of the place here, seeing the tunnel and the pool, the girls understood that this was the Upper Spring.

"If Aili and I arrive there, the seventh act is officially over, right?"

Stella asked. Flora nodded, and then thinking that Stella's teacher Claire was not there, she reached out and hugged the white-haired girl:

"Go, you and Aili go together. We don't know what will happen next, but remember, condensing the Ring of Destiny that belongs to you is the most important thing."

At this time, the hissing sound had already come from the area outside the waterfall. Aili shattered the rock wall to make the hidden Upper Spring reappear, but it also attracted some bad things:

"We are here, you can go with peace of mind."

Princess Lei Qianya also said. Stella knew that this matter was of great importance, so she didn't say anything more, reached out and took Aili's little hand, and walked toward the spring at the end of the tunnel with her.

"Little Liana, you also take Little Mia to the Upper Spring."

The girls didn't want the little unicorn to participate in the next battle, but Little Liana didn't leave, but stood firmly by Flora's side.

And Little Mia jumped down from her back, then followed Stella and Aili.

Flora then gently touched Little Liana, and together with Princess Lei Qianya and Dorothy, passed through the waterfall and returned to the outdoors of the ruins. Dense snakes were crawling out from under the snow at this moment, including both infinite snakes and ordinary poisonous snakes, both small snakes the size of a thumb and giant snakes over a hundred meters long.

Mr. Snake clearly didn't think he could stop the candidates from reaching the Upper Spring, but he didn't want more people to condense destiny here, which was why he let these snakes appear at this time.

After the first candidate obtained the Ring of Destiny at the Upper Spring, his true form could finally appear. The time wouldn't be too long, so the snakes here were enough.

So the witch, the writer, and the princess started a battle with the huge snake group. At this time, red butterflies fluttered in the snow, and Grace and Helen, who were instructed by Xia De to come and look after them, appeared in the snowy night. They could feel that Xia De had also arrived near the summit.

As for the inside of the cave behind the waterfall, Stella and Aili, who were walking forward, arrived at the edge of the pool.

Just when Stella was curious about what to do next, Aili actually walked into the water directly, and then disappeared with the cat as if melting into the water.

The white-haired witch apprentice was not very surprised by this, she just sighed like this:

"The relationship between Aili and Little Mia is really good."

Then she carefully tried the water temperature, and then entered the water directly wearing clothes and shoes.
