Chen Feng and the others headed to the airport after they left the Kunlun Mystic Realm.

When they arrived at the airport, Finn Ernest was already waiting for them over there.

When he saw Chen Feng and the others, he immediately walked ahead to welcome them.

Chen Feng and the others bowed when they saw Finn Ernest.

“Everyone is finally here.” Finn Ernest smiled as he greeted Chen Feng, Chen Yu, Sakurai Longzi, Park Yunmo, and Blake.

“Brother Chen, thank you again for saving my life in the Kunlun Mystic Realm,” Finn said with a smile.

After that, Finn said, “Since you're heading to Mount Olympus right after arriving at the airport, let's take my private jet there. I have some information and legends about Mount Olympus that I can share with you.”

After hearing Finn's words, Chen Feng smiled and said, “Mr. Finn, you're way too humble. We have also received your help in the Kunlun Mystic Realm.”

“Haha, it's all thanks to you guys. Otherwise, I might not have had the chance to walk out of the Kunlun Mystic Realm alive.” Finn Ernest smiled and added, “There's no need for you guys to be so courteous. I still have a lot of interesting news to tell you.”

“Is that so? Mr. Finn, tell us what you know about Mount Olympus. We can come up with a corresponding plan if you have any informaiton,” Chen Feng said curiously.

Finn Ernest looked at Chen Feng and said, “I know something about Mount Olympus.”

“This time, we are going to the northernmost Hell Canyon in Mount Olympus, which is where Pandora's box appeared. This place is extremely dangerous, and it is said that there are many ferocious beasts hidden there.”

“Once we're there, you must not lower your guard. Once someone gets trapped, there will only one outcome, and that is to be devoured by those monsters.”

“Are there any ferocious monsters in Hell Canyon?” Blake asked in shock.

“Yes. Not only are there many ferocious monsters in Hell Canyon, but there are also some extremely terrifying barbarians.”

“Those barbarians are much stronger than regular monsters. Besides, they possess many special weapons and are skilled in using curses. Therefore, it would be extremely difficult for you to escape once they set their eyes on you.”

“My suggestion for you guys is to be especially careful. In particular, don't pick a fight with those barbarians.”

“Those barbarians are very strong fighters,” Finn Ernest said. “You might be easily killed by them.”

“Oh,” Blake replied.

Blake feared Hell Canyon after hearing what he said. His heart wavered slightly.

“Okay, I've told you about the most important thing. Let's get on the plane and talk about it slowly,” Finn Ernest told everyone.

After that, Finn Ernest led the way into the airport.

They boarded Finn Ernest's private jet and took off to Mount Olympus.

Then, the five of them each received a detailed report on Mount Olympus.

Mount Olympus (also known as the Olympus Mountains) is located in northern Greece (there is a mountain with the same name on Mars). It was formed by the compression of tectonic plates between the continent of Africa and Eurasia. The mountain stands at an altitude of 2917 meters, and it is located near Thessaloniki Gulf, and the northeastern region of the mountain is

a distance away from the northern Greek city of Thessaloniki. Its Greek name means “glowing,” but it may also come from the Caucasus term for “mountain”.

The mountain is a watershed between the Cesare Area and Macedonia. Mitikas Peak, which stands at 2917 meters, is the highest peak in Greece. It is also known as the “Upper Olympus Mountain” to differentiate it from the “Lower Olympus Mountain” located in the south.

Greece's highest peak (2,917 meters (9570 feet]).

Mount Olympus is located near the Thermaic Gulf near the Aegean Sea. It spans Macedonia, and stands at an altitude of (5210 feet).

The peak of the mountain is covered in snow all year round, and shrouded in clouds and mist. It has long been regarded as the gods' dwelling place.

There are also other hills, villages, and mythical creatures known as “Olympus” in Greece and Asia Minor.

The ancient Greeks called it the “sacred mountain”. They believed that Mount Olympus was located in the center of Greece, which was the center of the world. Therefore, Mount Olympus was the center of the Earth. They believed that the gods who ruled the world and dominated mankind lived on this mountain.

The ancient Greeks believed in many gods. This included Zeus, the King of the Gods, Hera, the Heavenly Queen, Poseidon, the God of the Sea, Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom, Helios, the Sun God, Artemis, the Goddess of the Moon and the Hunt, Demeter, the Goddess of Grains, Hephaestus, the God of Fire, Ares, the God of War, Aphrodite, the God of Love and Beauty, Hermes, the God of Messengers and the Undead, Hestia, the Goddess of the Home and Kitchen, and Hercules, the God of Strength. Later on, Hestia gave her position as one of the 12 main gods to Dionysus, the God of Wine.

Ancient Greeks believed that these gods lived in the majestic Mount Olympus, where they held feasts and dominated the earth.

The King of the Gods, Zeus, resided at the top of the steep and treacherous mountain known as the Steffani Peak. He could summon wind and the rain, cast thunder and lightning, descend calamity and bestow blessings upon the world. He does as he pleases. Not only was he the ruler of mankind, but he was

also the ruler of the gods. Meanwhile, the goddess, Muse, lived on Mount Herakon.

Mount Olympus was shrouded in clouds and mist all year round since it towered into the clouds. It was covered in snow for two-thirds of the year, and its highest peak pierced the clouds.

The hillsides were lush with oaks, chestnut trees, beech trees, sycamore trees, and pine forests, and it had beautiful scenery. This was also one of the reasons why the ancient Greeks made this wonderful place the dwelling place of the gods.

However, the Greeks then changed their minds. Since Mount Olympus was covered in ice and snow and surrounded by clouds, it was not an ideal place for the gods to live.

Based on their seafaring experience, they learned that Greece was not the center of the world, and Mount Olympus was not the center of the world either. Therefore, it was impossible for the gods to live on Mount Olympus.

When the Greeks ascended Mount Olympus, they thought that it was rather inauspicious to think that the gods were within their reach and could be seen at any time.

Hence, they gradually changed their minds. They began to think that the Mount Olympus of their imaginations was far away, and the gods lived in that distant place that could only be seen but not visited. That way, Mount Olympus had more of a sacred charm to it.

Nevertheless, Mount Olympus was still a beautiful mountain in the Greeks' eyes.
