Chapter 722 You are right
"I didn't actually see many of the things that happened in the tombstone dream clearly."

"I can't remember exactly how many of the high-ranking deities eventually fell into the abyss along with that world."

"I can't even remember how many people are still alive."

"It feels like... I've never actually seen the Golden Tree in person?"

"I did feel the curse from the Golden Tree, but it didn't quite match my impression of the Golden Tree as a benevolent and compassionate tree... Or perhaps, the impression it left on me has always been stuck in that time in the unseen land..."

"Then what is gushing out this time?"

"It's definitely vines, but there's something strange inside..."

...

……

"What are you muttering about? Aren't we going to run away?"

Freya watched Milo standing alone on the edge of the cliff, talking to himself for quite a while.

She felt that the little cutie she had taken in might have some mental issues.

But it's said that even ordinary creatures have a high chance of having their minds affected if they consume too much of the milk of the Higanbana. Could it be that he also...?

"Ok?"

Just as Freya was giving full play to her peculiar thought process...

Suddenly, they noticed that Milo had bent over at the edge of the cliff.

"Feed carefully!"

She was about to remind Milo not to do such a dangerous thing.

Then Milo straightened up again and twisted his hips from side to side; he was actually doing stretching exercises...

"..."

He interlaced his fingers, raised his hands high above his head, and then pressed them down, resembling the posture of an old man doing morning exercises in a park, but in reality, his movements were not very standard.

Freya, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it any longer. She slung the package over her back and reached out to pull Milo away to escape in the opposite direction.

Because the vines below, like a surging wave, had already approached within a hundred meters, the almost ninety-degree cliff could not stop their forward momentum at all.

...

Komilo ignored Freya.

He repeated the action, pressing his raised hands down to the ground.

This time, however, it seemed that he used all his strength to smash his fists into the cliff face, and both hands were deeply embedded in the cold rock.

hum...

After the muffled thud.

A chilling, more biting and harsh atmosphere than the cold wind at the summit of the Cold Plains began to rise from the depths of the earth.

...

The ground began to shake.

The flames, representing sin and evil, along with the chilling "dark side," began to spread and erode across the entire cold plain.

Buzz! ! ! !

The spiraling flames of sin, centered on Milo's location, swirled and spread outwards, surging forth from every crevice deep within the earth's crust, intertwining and merging to form even more turbulent whirlpools and waves, crashing down upon the sea of ​​vines.

...

The warm country that the crybaby longed for did not become a reality.

In the end, what made a magnificent appearance on this cold, desolate mountain peak was not the gentle side of the flame, but the black flame carrying original sin, interpreting the dark side of fire with death, and venting it wantonly on this lifeless plateau.

The black flames roared between the mountains, and the moment they came into contact with the vines bearing the golden totem, the flames reached an unprecedented intensity.

...

You can almost hear the agonizing howls of the devoured, scorched vines, pleading for something from the gloomy sky, but the sound is fleeting.

The vines struggled and twisted like long snakes, while the black flames displayed their violent side to the fullest extent.

The outcome of the clash between these two special forces was actually predetermined.

The reason why the fire of sin is listed as taboo is precisely because the power it represents violates the order of the birth of the gods; in other words, it can kill gods.

...

……

Freya stared at the "little guy" who had turned the entire mountain range upside down. For a full minute, her only action was blinking...

Then she began to feel a strange sense of excitement.

It was as if I had been thrown into an ice cave; all my weariness vanished in an instant.

In stark contrast to the fatigue I felt when I first entered the cemetery.

...

She even heard Milo's arrogant laughter, but the "wailing" of the surrounding vines was too jarring for her to be sure.

But the fact is, most of the ferocious vines that surged up were burned, and the terrifying black flames showed no signs of abating.

Even though Milo had kept the flames at a great distance, Freya still felt an extreme sense of pressure and crisis.

So is this the true power of the little cutie after she goes crazy?
I think I've picked up a devil...

His fire might actually burn down the web that the giant spider has spun...

...

Where is everyone?
As Freya was lost in her fantasies, she suddenly noticed that Milo had suddenly knelt on the ground and was convulsing violently.

"What’s wrong with you?!"

She helped Milo up and found that his complexion was frighteningly poor. His whole body seemed to have been drained of moisture, and even his eye sockets were deeply sunken, making his eyeballs invisible. He was almost no different from a dried-up corpse.

"I miscalculated. I underestimated how quickly the Flames of Sin consume fear... cough cough!"

The mummified corpse Milo coughed twice, and what came out between his teeth were two miniature spirals of black flame. The truth was, he had overestimated himself.

The fear he had previously extracted from Joan Byrne was far from enough to sustain his extravagant spending across the mountains and fields.

Especially considering that Milo previously possessed almost limitless energy from his Holy Communion physique, making every fight a battle of abundance, he hadn't yet adjusted his mindset.

So the fire of sin burned until it had nothing left to burn, and almost burned Milo as firewood.

This is the well-worn topic of "backlash".

...

The good news is that only some of the water in his body was evaporated, and some blood and flesh were burned away; the fire of sin still spared his life.

The bad news is that after the flames on the cold plains died down, even more vines surged up from beneath the ground, and new thorns sprouted from the places where the vines had been burned and broken, their sharp edges fully exposed.

...

Worse news.

In addition to the twisted golden vines, the family of another victim who died at Milo's hands also rushed to the scene.

From the crevices closer to the cliff where Milo was than the vines, countless long snakes began to emerge. The smallest of them were as thick as a bowl. In an instant, they covered the entire cliff, wrapping everything up like a net, which was terrifying.

Vines and pythons.

The will of the Golden Law and the Serpent People is directed at Jon Byrne and Hughes Iger, respectively.

Two distinct chanting voices rose from between the mountains.

That melodious hymn symbolizing the Golden Law.

And the low, somber prayers of the Serpent People.

They intertwined with each other without any confrontation or biting. These long, twisted objects entangled themselves in this taboo way, engulfing the entire cold plain.

This frigid plateau, known as the untouchable plateau of the Northern Continent, now seems to have become a breeding ground for the collusion of these two twisted wills.

……

"Don't be afraid! Nothing can stop us."

Freya helped Milo up.

She then began to remove her leather armor, something she seemed to have done before when she was trapped by the hunter Monquia's fog wall.

"What do you mean, it can't possibly fly away..." the dying, desiccated corpse Milo asked in a hoarse voice.

"Close your eyes!" Freya snapped.

"Do I look like I have eyes?" Milo pointed to his slightly empty eye sockets.

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt some soft, slightly warm clothing being thrown onto his face.

"What do you mean?"

Before he could react, he heard Freya's voice say, "You guessed right, it's flying out!"

The next second, Milo felt a dizzying sensation as the world spun around him.

He heard an extremely deep and terrifying roar.

"Roar!!!!!!"

The roar, like that of some kind of giant beast, came from beside him—no, from beneath his feet.

The terrifying roar shook the entire surrounding space, and Milo felt as if his body could be "shattered" by the intense sound waves at any moment.

...

Then he heard the howling of the wind, followed by an incredibly strong feeling of gravity, and the surrounding air became increasingly thin... which meant that something was carrying him at an extremely fast speed into the sky...

...

"Freya?"

Milo tried calling out.

But no response was received.

He reached out and touched something solid, like rocks or tiles, or more precisely, scales.

At this moment, he was not clear about what exactly he was riding, but it was obvious that it was a living creature that could fly.

And it even grew horns...

Milo reached forward and touched a thick horn, as thick as a stone pillar...

The intense feeling of weightlessness pressed Milo's body against the warm scales.

He clung tightly to any structure he could grasp, trying to prevent the gale from sweeping him away.

The sound of something cutting through the air grew increasingly piercing.

Occasionally, it is accompanied by thunderous roars.

"Roar!!!!!"

Soon, Milo could no longer hear the hymns of the Golden Law or the whispers of the serpents…

……

...

What happened in Lengyuan that night later became a taboo subject that few people were willing to talk about.

Of course, the main reason is that most of the truth is sealed off by the walls of Inganok. Almost no one has successfully crossed that cold city-state and left the Cold Plains. It is said that some belated scavengers sneaked into Inganok, only to be eaten by the city's insect-like inhabitants...

Some say that the hunters killed everyone, including the temple apostles and the wandering spirit seers.

There are also rumors that it was the sealed ancient priest king who did all of this.

All the temples involved remained silent.

Among the many different versions circulating among the people, the most outrageous one is that someone claimed to have witnessed an ancient dragon with four wings flying over the mountain peaks of the Cold Plains and disappearing into the Twilight Ocean to the east...
