After a brief moment of silence, Shifeng heard a deep and rueful voice.
"You've all seen these things for yourselves. What exactly happened back then? What caused the deaths of so many contemporary powerhouses? Even Gods?
"It's best if you don't ask or think about anything. You absolutely must not explore these questions.
"Otherwise, heaven-blessed individuals like you won't be able to bear the consequences. In fact, it's not impossible for you to lose your minds over this matter."
When the old man saw the doubt in the hearts of Shifeng and the others, he immediately advised them. His tone seemed to be announcing the consequences of Shifeng and the others' actions.
Although the old man's tone did not carry any mental pressure or pressure, even Shifeng and the others shuddered at his words.
Although Lifeless Thorn and the others revealed fearful expressions, they were also filled with curiosity about this secret. It was obvious that they did not take the old man's words seriously.
After all, this matter was related to Gods.
For players who had just entered God's Domain, Gods were, at most, just a noun. They thought of Gods as powerful monsters. However, after truly exploring God's Domain and visiting the libraries of the various kingdoms and empires, one would discover that Gods weren't just powerful existences. They also represented a kind of pinnacle, a path that led to the apex of God's Domain.
Anything related to the Gods was a great opportunity for the players.
This was especially true for Tier 3 players like themselves. They knew full well that their path forward had been cut off. If they wished to find a way forward, they could only tread on the footsteps of their predecessors. Among them, the Gods' footsteps were the best.
"Don't look into this matter, at least not now," Shifeng suddenly said as he looked at Lifeless Thorn and the others.
He knew full well how attractive Gods were to Third Order God's Domain. Even if they had to take a huge risk, they would most likely give it a try. After all, the path of promotion was simply too difficult. The further one progressed, the more difficult it would become.
Normally, just the ruins left behind by Tier 5 existences could help a player improve by leaps and bounds, not to mention Tier 6 Gods.
However, Shi Feng was also aware that some of the peak experts and apex experts that had disappeared in the past were most likely related to Tier 6 Gods. With just Tier 3 and Tier 4 players, they'd most likely die before they could even cause a ripple in the ocean.
If they were lucky, their accounts would be destroyed and they would have to start all over again. If they were unlucky, they might end up like those experts that had disappeared.
When Lifeless Thorn and the others heard the old man's words, they looked at Xiang Shifeng in surprise. They never thought that Shifeng would take the initiative to stop them.
"It seems you know your limits, kid." The old man then looked at Xiang Shifeng with narrowed eyes as if he admired Shifeng. "Indeed. Only those who know their limits and know their strength can live longer.....................................
As the old man spoke, Lifeless Thorn and the others snapped out of their daze.
"Thank you, Commander. I never thought that I would be so tempted by the benefits before me," Lifeless Thorn said, a hint of fear lingering in his voice as he thanked the old man.
God's Domain had always emphasized balance. There were gains and losses. If one didn't have the strength to take things by force, only death would await them. They hadn't even reached Tier 4 yet, yet they still wanted to explore the secrets of Tier 6 existences.
"It's normal. After all, very few people in God's Domain can remain calm when it comes to Gods." Shifeng shook his head. If he hadn't experienced so much, he would've most likely gone even crazier than Lifeless Thorn.
In this era where Gods had yet to appear, a clue leading to a Tier 6 God was definitely enough to drive God's Domain's various superpowers crazy. Even Tier 5 NPCs that stood at the apex of God's Domain would risk everything to obtain the clue.
"That's enough." When the old man saw that Shifeng and the others had calmed down, he beckoned to them and said, "Come over. What you should be waiting for is the moment you should be waiting for. It is also the final fortune and treasure that person left for heaven-blessed individuals like you."
"Treasure left behind by the God Slayer?" Shifeng grew excited when he heard the old man's words.
The God Slayer was a mythical figure in God's Domain, a true human. Although they didn't know whether the God Slayer had become a God or not, even Gods feared the God Slayer. In fact, more than ten Gods had died at the God Slayer's hands. However, for some unknown reason, the God Slayer had vanished from God's Domain's history, leaving behind very few clues.
Most of these clues came from ancient ruins, and the various kingdoms and empires' libraries barely had any records of the God Slayer. It was as if the God Slayer was a taboo existence that had been erased from history.
There were even plenty of negative comments about the God Slayer. Some people said that the God Slayer was a great sinner in God's Domain's history, while others said that the God Slayer was the culprit behind the Twilight of the Gods.
A short moment later, the old man led Shifeng's group of five to the center of the cavern, where the dozen or so ice sculptures of Gods stood.
There was a faint space-time tear in the center of the cavern. This space-time tear was extremely small, only about the size of a fingernail. It was impossible to detect from a distance. Only when one was within 30 yards of the tear would they barely notice it.
Meanwhile, underneath this space-time tear was an incomparably complex magic array. It was so complex that even Shifeng, an expert in the magic array, felt dizzy.
"This is the treasure?" Solitary Nine was stupefied as he looked at the tiny space-time tear.
For a moment, he even thought that the old man had toyed with him.
What was the point of a fingernail-sized space-time tear?
Even if this space-time tear led to somewhere else, players couldn't possibly enter such a small space.
"That's right. This is the treasure," the old man said, chuckling. "You might think that a space-time tear isn't a big deal, but what if I told you that this space-time tear can connect to the past?"
"Connect to the past?" Solitary Nine was similarly stunned.
Traveling through timelines was simply impossible. Even in a virtual reality game like God's Domain, such a thing was absolutely impossible.
"Esteemed Elder, are you saying that this space-time tear can connect us to another Otherworld?" Lifeless Thorn asked, assuming that the old man simply didn't understand what a connection was.
In reality, let alone Lifeless Thorn, even Shi Feng, who stood beside Lifeless Thorn, believed that the old man's true intention was to explore an alternate space. There were plenty of alternate spaces in God's Domain, after all. There were even plenty of Otherworlds.
"No! This is a true connection. It doesn't lead to an Otherworld or Otherworld, "the old man said, shaking his head. He could tell what Shifeng and the others were thinking. "I know you don't believe me, and you can't believe me. After all, not even the Ancient Gods are capable of such a thing. However, this is the truth.
"Moreover, I can tell you with certainty that this space-time tear connects to an ancient God's Domain!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, everyone present was stunned.
"A connection to an ancient God's Domain?" Shifeng felt as if his worldview had been set ablaze. The shock he felt was indescribable. "Could this be the Earthfall Secret Land's true secret?"
What was the ancient era?
It was an era when God's Domain flourished. Various supercivilizations intertwined with one another, and even Gods still existed. Since the Twilight of the Gods hadn't occurred, God's Domain had been ridiculously rich. The current God's Domain simply couldn't compare.
"I won't waste your breath. This is your first time here, so you can enter without paying any price. However, you can only stay for a limited time. The stronger you are, the greater the impact you'll cause upon entering the ancient era. God's Domain will also notice and expel you. As for what you can obtain inside, that will depend on your own abilities," the old man said. "However, I have to remind you of one thing. That era isn't as beautiful as you imagine it to be! If you're not careful, you'll die permanently! "
However, before Shifeng and the others could ask any questions, the old man waved his hand.
Immediately, Shifeng and the others transformed into streaks of light and entered the space-time tear, disappearing from the cavern …
