"The Golden Fruit Tree isn't the endpoint," Tracing said.
"That's strange. Since the Golden Fruit Tree isn't the endpoint, why did the Rubik's Cube automatically end the battle after plucking the Golden Apple?" Zhou Wen asked.
"What do you think that place is? It's not a trashy dimensional zone like in your Earth's universe, but a dimensional zone of another dimension. " Tracing continued disdainfully, "There's no teleportation array in the Lake of Oblivion. The only way to leave is to pluck the Golden Fruit. You ignorant humans, do you really think that the dimension only has those on the rankings? In fact, those fellows are nothing but unimportant people in the dimension. There are too many experts who can pluck the Golden Fruit. The reason why there are still Golden Fruits is because they are left to be used when truly exploring the Lake of Oblivion. However, they have all been plucked by ignorant humans like you. Now, unless you can truly clear the level, there's no way to leave the Lake of Oblivion. "
"It sounds like the dimension doesn't know much about the Lake of Oblivion. The dimension only learned of what you said not long ago, right?" Zhou Wen said indifferently.
Tracing didn't deny it. All he did was curl his lips and say, "Even in the dimension, the Lake of Oblivion is a famous existence. Many people know of it, but not many people dare to explore it."
"Why?" Zhou Wen asked curiously.
"Because that's where the Tomb of the Fallen God is," Tracing said.
"I never expected the dimension to have gods," Zhou Wen said with a smile.
The creatures of the dimension were no different from gods to humans. Furthermore, many of the races in the dimension had races like Ghost Immortals.
Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised that there was the concept of God in a place like theirs.
"Humph, the gods of the dimension and the gods of you humans are two completely different concepts. To you humans, gods are just a form of spiritual belief and not a real existence. In the dimension, gods are only a race, not the ethereal things you humans imagine." Ever since Tracing became Zhou Wen's disciple, he felt uncomfortable looking at him. His words were even more biting than before.
"Then, the Tomb of the Fallen God is where the Celestials bury their clansmen? In that case, the Celestials must know that place very well. Why don't they clear it themselves? "Zhou Wen voiced his doubts.
"If the Protoss aren't extinct, why would that place be called the Tomb of the Fallen Gods?" Trace briefly explained what had happened.
The Celestials were originally a very powerful race in the dimension. They were existences that could match the Immortals. The two races fought for supremacy in the dimension and were evenly matched for a long time.
But suddenly, one day, the birthplace of the God Race was suddenly destroyed. The God Race also died out. Now, almost no God Race survived.
As for how the God Race was destroyed, there was still no accurate explanation to this day.
The most accepted explanation was that they were destroyed by the Immortals, but the Immortals had never admitted to this, so no one could be certain of the truth.
Many races in the dimension knew that it used to be an extremely majestic divine mountain. The divine mountain was almost comparable to a world. It could accommodate all living things and there were countless magical items inside.
However, during that night, the Divine Mountain disappeared without a trace. The place where the Divine Mountain used to be became a lake of unfathomable depth. Later, many experts from various races entered the lake, wanting to find out the secret behind the Divine Race's annihilation. In the end, none of them returned. Not a single creature was able to return.
The Land of Oblivion referred to the land where the divine mountain had sunk. It also meant that all living things would sink. No creature dared to enter it.
If not for the Magic Cube activating the battle in the Land of Oblivion, the experts of the dimension probably wouldn't have dared to enter it.
The understanding of the Land of Oblivion wasn't much better than that of humans. They had only realized that the Golden Fruit was only a tool to leave the Land of Oblivion after analyzing the challenge. It wasn't the true key to the Land of Oblivion.
Even experts at the Apocalypse stage weren't willing to risk entering the Land of Oblivion. Otherwise, how could humans have the chance to pluck the Golden Fruit?
"Now that you know the true secret of the Land of Oblivion, do you still dare challenge it?" Trace provoked Zhou Wen.
"Now that you say that, I really don't dare," Zhou Wen said with a smile.
"Humph." Trace was a little infuriated, but he also knew that it was indeed forcing Zhou Wen to challenge the trial now.
Even the big shots of the dimension didn't dare take the risk. If a human like Zhou Wen were to challenge the trial while facing certain death, as long as there was nothing wrong with his brain, he definitely wouldn't choose to do it now.
"Do you dare?" Zhou Wen returned with a question.
"So what if I don't dare? It's not like I'm his teacher," Trace snapped.
"That's perfect. As your teacher, I'll teach you something today," Zhou Wen said.
"You want to challenge the Land of Oblivion now?" Trace stared at Zhou Wen with widened eyes as though he was looking at a fool.
"That's right. To be your teacher, I naturally have to teach you things you don't know. Otherwise, how can I be your teacher?" Zhou Wen said with a smile.
Of course, he didn't really want to teach Trace anything, nor would he risk his life for it. The reason he chose to challenge the trial now was because he had seen something in the Land of Oblivion.
Previously, Zhou Wen hadn't paid much attention to the Land of Oblivion, but this time, when Ming Xiu and company challenged the trial, Zhou Wen watched very seriously. Especially when Ming Xiu challenged the trial, Zhou Wen was somewhat worried.
Although he had already taught Ming Xiu and company the method to pluck the golden apple, he still had some qualms even if he was 100% confident.
Therefore, Zhou Wen watched very seriously. It was also because of this that he saw something that he originally believed couldn't exist in the dimension.
It was a tiny palm symbol on the golden fruit tree. It was the symbol of the cell phone's download dungeon. It was somewhat surprising that the dimension would have a tiny palm symbol.
The origins of the cell phone were more mysterious than Zhou Wen imagined. Even the dimension had its symbol, so Zhou Wen couldn't imagine what kind of existence the person who created the cell phone was.
After Qin Zhen cleared the trial, Zhou Wen had wanted to take a picture of the tiny palm symbol, but Zhong Ziya and Liu Yun had beaten him to it.
However, it didn't matter. As long as he downloaded the tiny palm symbol and attempted the trial in-game, he could still come out unscathed with experience.
Of course, there was a more important reason why Zhou Wen was so confident. He realized that the Sigh of the King was more powerful than he had imagined. This was also his confidence and guarantee.
"I don't know if I should call you ignorant or fearless. If you wish to die, I won't stop you. Don't blame me if you die. I didn't force you." From Trace's point of view, Zhou Wen was basically sending himself to his death if he really went.
