Meng Chao knew that Ice Storm was right.

Because the information she possesses is almost the same as that of her father and "Jackal" Canus.

If there really is any shortcut, the Wolf King must have taken advantage of it first.

After all, they were still half a step behind the Wolf King.

It is never easy to overtake in a curve.

"According to your estimate, how long will it take us to reach the 'Scarlet Peak'?" Meng Chao asked.

"If you are willing to take the risk and pass through the main battlefield of the Holy Mountain War three thousand years ago, the space marked as the 'Angel Cemetery' in the memory crystal, you can still travel from a more than ten miles long road in half an hour.

At the bottom of the suspended mountain range, if you hold on to the vines and tree roots and climb all the way like a gibbon, you can seize the opportunity to change the space."

Ice Storm concentrated on his calculations for a while, "In this case, we can reach the 'Scarlet Peak' in about twenty moments."

"Twenty quarters, nearly two days?"

Meng Chao frowned, "No, it's too slow. Canus the Jackal will never leave us for such a long time. The Lion King's exploration team will soon run into his ambush.

"If we had to wait two days to arrive at the 'Scarlet Peak', I'm afraid the Lion King would have been wiped out, and the Wolf King and Tiger King would have finished cleaning up the battlefield and headed to the top of the Holy Mountain!

"Not to mention stopping them, we don't even know how to find the entrance to the Holy Mountain Temple from the top of the Holy Mountain!

"Is there any other route, a faster route? We must reach the 'Scarlet Peak' within one day, preferably within half a day!"

Ice Storm hesitated.

"Basically, no."

The female snow leopard warrior shook her head.

"You hesitated, why?"

Meng Chao stared at her, "Also, what does 'basically no' mean? Does it mean yes or no?"

"There is definitely no conventional and safe route; there is no shortcut that takes great risks and has a half chance of awakening the remains of the evil puppet; however, there seems to be a 'suicide passage' that will lead to a narrow escape."

Ice Storm thought for a while and said, "Let's put it this way, we imagine the space deep in the Holy Mountain of Turan as hundreds of small boats tied together by chains, floating in the vast ocean.

"This is a very fragile chain that can easily be torn apart by wind and waves.

“And on this vast sea, rough waves will roll up from time to time, causing the fleet of small boats to easily fall apart, and each small boat will drift with the current and scatter everywhere.

"However, this is a chain made of magnets and has strong suction power.

"When the wind and waves gradually subside, the broken chains will automatically find the nearest companions and connect the boats together again. However, the arrangement and combination of the fleet will become completely different from just now. The two boats that were closely adjacent just now will

The small boats are likely to be scattered on both sides of the huge fleet, with dozens or hundreds of small boats in between.

"There is another rule. Generally speaking, people can only walk between the boats when the sea is calm and the boats are tied up with iron chains to form a fleet. But often before people can pass through three or five boats, the waves will become rough again.

Get up and disrupt the arrangement of the boats again."

Meng Chao nodded: "It's a very vivid metaphor, so what should we do to reach this small boat called 'Scarlet Peak' in the shortest time?"

"It is absolutely impossible when the sea is calm and the fleet is stable."

Ice Storm said, "Because this small boat named 'Scarlet Peak' has drifted very far away now. In the next few 'calm sea' conditions, it will be on the other side of the huge fleet, and

We are separated by dozens or hundreds of small boats.

"However, if a stormy sea strikes and the fleet is torn apart, and every small boat is either on the cusp of the storm or sinks into the deepest part of the whirlpool, I do know that in such a short blink of an eye, you have one ten thousandth chance.

Opportunity, from a small boat that was swept up on the wave, jump directly into the 'Scarlet Peak' that was dragged into the depths of the whirlpool."

Meng Chao blinked his eyes quickly.

I don't understand what Ice Storm means.

"I once witnessed the death of a human soldier in the memory crystal copy."

Ice Storm explained, "During the Holy Mountain War three thousand years ago, this soldier was responsible for exploring a space labeled 'Thousand Blades Peak' because he was good at climbing and jumping.

"When he finally climbed to the highest point of Thousand Blades Peak after going through hardships and dangers, mist suddenly surged around him, and the surrounding peaks like swords, spears, and halberds disappeared one after another, like an invisible bloody mouth.

Devoured one by one.

"Obviously, the space in the Holy Mountain of Turan has once again twisted, torn and reorganized, and some kind of force that is a hundred times more terrifying than the power of the totem has turned into a turbulent wave and struck.

"Even if this soldier tried his best and inserted ten fingers and ten toes deeply into the cracks of the mountain rock, when this huge wave of space hit his face, he still felt that his flesh, flesh and bones were about to tremble.

Torn and blown from the soul.

"And the peak he was clinging to, which stood like a giant pillar among the mountains, also rotated at high speed like a top along with the entire space.

"The huge force of rotation quickly threw him away.

"He was like a dead leaf in a hurricane, dancing in the air.

"And in all directions there is a snarling fog, like layers of gray waves.

"Suddenly, directly below him, a gap opened in the mist.

"It was as if two huge gray waves collided with each other, creating an area where there were no waves and was temporarily calm.

"So, the soldier saw the 'Scarlet Peak' through the gap between the two huge gray waves.

"Because the ridge curve of the 'Scarlet Peak' and the shapes of several peaks are very unique. Other peaks are often cone-shaped. Only the 'Scarlet Peak' is rhombus-shaped, like the back bone plate of some giant beast. Moreover,

There is also a scarlet shining waterfall on the left, like a dragon's throat being cut open by a giant blade and blood gushing out.

"So, it left a very deep impression on this soldier.

"Let him know that during a very special space change, one can jump directly from the 'Thousand Blades Peak' to the 'Scarlet Peak'."

"I see!"

Meng Chao was overjoyed, "How far is the Thousand Blades Peak from here?"

"not too far."

Ice Storm said, "If you go all out, within six seconds, you will have a chance to climb to the highest point of Thousand Blades Peak and reach the place where the soldier fell from the cliff."

"Then what are we waiting for?"

Meng Chao said impatiently, "Just jump over from the Thousand Blades Peak!"

Ice Storm looked at him silently.

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes: "Why, what's the problem? By the way, you haven't told me the fate of this soldier yet. Did he successfully jump to the 'Scarlet Peak'?"

"No."

Ice Storm said, "I told you that the memory crystal will only store the memories of believers in the Holy Light before they die.

"The soldier was squeezed by the gap in space during the fall.

"The last sound he heard was the 'click-click' sound of his bones, including his skull, being squeezed into powder.

“The last scene I saw was that blood all over my body was squeezed out of my eyeballs, dyeing the whole world scarlet.

"And in this scarlet world, two huge gray waves collided violently again, sealing the space gap tightly again. Naturally, he could no longer see the existence of the 'Scarlet Mountain Peak'."

Meng Chao's expression suddenly froze.

The fire of hope that had just surged in his eyes was hit head-on by the stormy waves.

"So, I didn't say that this route existed at first because it wasn't really a traversable route at all."

Ice Storm stretched out his hands, one high and one low, crossing each other quickly, simulating the scene of two small boats crossing each other rapidly in the stormy waves, "Look, the top is the 'Thousand Blades Peak', and the bottom is the 'Scarlet Mountains', between each other, and

There are no chains connected or clinging together. They just passed each other up and down the huge waves in the blink of an eye.

"You want to take advantage of the mist and the drastic changes in space to jump from the 'Thousand Blades Peak' to the 'Scarlet Mountains', just like jumping from the waves when the wind is strong on the sea, the rain is pouring, and the huge waves are rolling like huge waves.

A boat on the tip, another boat jumping into the bottom of the waves.

"Do you really think that this is something that a human, even a human with black hair and black eyes, can do?"

Meng Chao leaned against the mandala tree and slowly sat down.

He crossed his fingers, pressed his forehead, and fell into long thought.

In the gaps between the ten fingers, the fire of hope was about to be extinguished, but it kept jumping in the form of sparks, as if billions of rays of light were condensed into one point, making it even more dazzling than before.

"Do you remember how long it took for this soldier to fall from the Thousand Blades Peak until he was squeezed into a meat pie by the gap in space?"

After thinking for a long time, Meng Chao raised his head, and the sparks in the depths of his pupils had spread along the bloodshot eyes. "And how long has passed since he saw the 'Scarlet Peak' until the 'Scarlet Peak' was shrouded in fog again?"

"this……"

Ice Storm recalled, "About eighteen breaths passed between his fall and his death, and in about one or two breaths before his death, the scarlet peaks in the mist were no longer visible.

'Yes."

"Whose eighteen breaths are they?"

Meng Chao asked, "Is it the eighteen breaths of an ordinary rat citizen, or the eighteen breaths of an elephant warrior? Is it the eighteen breaths of a calm state, or is it the eighteen breaths of a panicked person with a beating heart?"

Eighteen breaths?”

"It's my eighteen breaths."

Ice Storm said, "These are my eighteen breaths in a calm state."

"That's about fifty-eight seconds of falling, and the window period during which the space gap penetrates the 'Thousand Blades Peak' and the 'Crimson Peak' is about fifty-two to fifty-four seconds."

Meng Chao quickly calculated in his mind, but after thinking about it, he felt something was wrong, "Wait a minute, you can be so precise and know the time of this soldier's fall? He was dancing in mid-air at that time, shouldn't he be panicked or even out of his mind?"

"Because these are his near-death memories."

Ice Storm explained, "You know, when a person, whether it is a Holy Light human or a Turan orc, the moment before death, he will always feel that time passes very slowly, and he can clearly perceive everything around him, as if the entire

The world has been slowed down ten times.

"If an arrow were to hit him, he would feel that the arrow was like an insect slowly squirming in mid-air, but he lacked enough strength to push the insect away.
