Bali and Meow began to look around the bronze statue's face.
Gu Qing Shan just stood there blankly.
There were so many thoughts in his mind that he couldn't calm down.
For some reason, just looking at the bronze statue reminded him of that giant corpse.
The corpse was trapped in a sealed world by the bronze pillar, unable to escape.
Perhaps that bronze pillar was also a creation of the Old Gods?
If I go there again, I'll definitely ask that giant corpse what it was.
What's even stranger was that monster.
It ate the giant corpse's flesh.
It even called my name and tried to kill me.
Fortunately, after being frozen by the Armor of God, I and the Earth sword managed to kill that monster with everything we had.
It said that I'm pitiful.
Pitiful …
Gu Qing Shan had so many questions.
At the time, I was too weak, the Armor of God could only buy me a few breaths' worth of time, and the Earth sword could only attack once.
Besides killing that monster, I had no other way to capture it and slowly ask it a few things.
Now everything is a mystery.
With the information that I have, Gu Qing Shan couldn't come up with anything.
This is a bit depressing!
Gu Qing Shan lowered her gaze and silently sighed.
Meow finally noticed that Gu Qing Shan's expression wasn't right.
She jumped onto the bronze statue's nose and carefully observed Gu Qing Shan.
"Gu Qing Shan, what's wrong?"
She asked.
"It's nothing" Gu Qing Shan forced a smile, "I just think that the key to opening the world tomb might lie in the statue's eye"
"Ah? So you've been standing there without moving just now because you were thinking of something "
Meow was surprised.
Bali also heard what Gu Qing Shan said.
He couldn't find anything from the bronze statue's mouth, so he stood up and asked: "You think it's the eye?"
He leapt towards the statue's eye.
"The left eye" Gu Qing Shan reminded him.
Bali nodded and landed on the edge of the bronze statue's left eye.
He squatted down and placed his hand on the surface of the bronze eye to feel it.
After a while, Bali said loudly, "There really is a problem."
"What's going on?" Meow asked from afar.
"This eye is loose, it can move."
As Bali spoke, he pressed down forcefully.
The eyes of the bronze face gradually sank, leaving only two black holes on the surface of the bronze statue.
There was a moment of silence.
Suddenly, two brilliant rays of light appeared in the statue's eyes.
With these two Eyes of Light, the entire statue immediately came to life.
The bronze statue opened its mouth and let out a long sigh.
It stared at Bali, then at Meow, then at Gu Qing Shan.
"Were you the ones who awakened me?" the bronze statue asked.
"Yes, it's us," Bali replied.
「 You did very well 」 the bronze statue praised, 「 This place is a relatively unique world tomb that the Old Gods set up before they left 」
「 To open it, one thing must be done: to fuse the scattered Samsara into a single world 」
「 The river of time has flowed for far too long, until today, when someone finally managed to fuse the Human, Asura, Heaven, Huang Quan, Hungry Wraith, and Animal worlds together 」
「 Although we have already left, we will still find out about this and feel gratified 」
Bali and Meow exchanged surprised glances.
They were both heroes who had gone through so much, so they could naturally tell what the bronze face was trying to say.
"Esteemed Old Gods, why did you wish for the Samsara worlds to be fused into one?" Meow asked.
「 Because this was one of our conjectures, and we were just about to complete it, but due to some unforeseen circumstances, we were unable to do so in time 」 the bronze face answered.
Bali and Meow were both confused, unable to understand what the other party was talking about.
There's something that the Old Gods couldn't do?
Gu Qing Shan, on the other hand, was shaken.
He suddenly felt enlightened.
— — -so after the Old Gods created the Samsara worlds, they wanted to fuse the six worlds into one.
For some reason, their actions were discovered by the enemy.
The Samsara worlds were destroyed!
That's why the Old Gods couldn't do it!
"Why didn't you have time to do it?" Gu Qing Shan tried asking.
The bronze face paused.
「 This isn't something you should know 」 the bronze face answered.
Gu Qing Shan immediately asked: "Very well, then please tell me, what will happen after the Samsara worlds are fused?"
The bronze face paused again.
It sighed deeply and spoke: 「 The fusion of the Samsara represents a certain possibility, but this isn't something you should know 」
The bronze face didn't answer any more questions and simply said: 「 And now, this unique world tomb will be awakened 」
Bali asked in a low voice: "What does awakening mean? I remember that world tombs are all hidden spaces within the void of space, all you need to do is enter"
At this point, he also felt that something wasn't right.
「 This is a unique world tomb 」 the bronze face replied.
The three of them exchanged glances.
They couldn't help but recall the people from God Institute at the same time.
They came to this world in order to find a unique world tomb for their God.
At this point, the bronze face continued: 「 You have fused the Samsara worlds — — although it is only the tiniest bit, it is still an unprecedented improvement for living beings, so the Tower of Reality that we have hidden here will be awakened 」
Following its words, the entire world began to tremble.
"Look!" Meow called out.
A few dozen meters away from the bronze face, a tall tower that gave off a cold metallic glow shot up to the sky.
— — -this was a tower made entirely of bronze!
It came out from the ground and shot straight up to the sky, only slowing down after reaching the clouds.
Rumble rumble!
As the world trembled, the tall tower stood firmly between the heavens and the earth.
It was so grand and majestic that anyone who looked at it would feel a sense of reverence and worship.
Meow exclaimed in shock: "Isn't this the Spire Keeper Association's Tower of Knowledge?"
The bronze face replied: 「 No, this is not the Tower of Knowledge, this is the Tower of Infinite Worlds that the Old Gods created 」
"The Tower of Infinite Worlds?"
"Indeed, in the Tower of Knowledge, living beings can use various methods to obtain knowledge of the infinite worlds, but in this Tower of Infinite Worlds, all the Laws of the infinite worlds are present, living beings can complete all kinds of tests and become stronger through it"
「 Each person who enters this tower will face a different trial, each time they complete a trial, they will be able to advance to the next floor 」
「 The higher the floor, the more generous the rewards 」
"What kind of rewards are there?" Bali asked.
「 Secret techniques to advance, crucial items for evolution, Skills, weapons, treasures, equipment, unique Professions, etc …
「 Living beings can climb this tower to continuously evolve and become stronger 」
「 This is the method that the Old Gods left for living beings to save themselves! 」
Bali and Meow silently listened, then couldn't help but look back at the bronze tower that reached all the way to the sky.
"That's incredible …" Meow couldn't help but exclaim.
Bali sighed: "The Old Gods truly are compassionate, to be able to create such a thing, all for the sake of making living beings stronger"
The bronze face smiled: 「 The Old Gods love living beings, the Old Gods have compassion for living beings, the growth and existence of every living being would bring joy and comfort to the Old Gods 」
Bali and Meow couldn't help but nod.
The Old Gods of creation left such a tower for the living beings of the infinite worlds.
Other than feeling compassion for living beings and hoping for them to live a better life, there was no other reason for this.
Gu Qing Shan silently listened without saying anything.
He knew more, so his heart was already cold.
Why would the Old Gods do everything in their power to make living beings stronger?
They simply wanted the living beings to form a barrier that would be able to stop them for a bit longer!
This was clearly a despicable act, yet the Old Gods made it sound so noble.
Gu Qing Shan slowly became angry.
But how could the living beings of the infinite worlds give up on becoming stronger?
The ones facing the true danger were the living beings of the infinite worlds who were being pushed by the Old Gods.
They had to become stronger in order to have a sliver of hope to survive.
— — -perhaps not even that sliver of hope.
Without a sliver of hope to survive, they had to become stronger to stop the enemies for the Old Gods.
What a tragic truth this was.
Could it be that the living beings of the infinite worlds didn't have a way to survive?
Could it be that the living beings of the infinite worlds could only be used as a defensive tool by the Old Gods?
Gu Qing Shan gritted his teeth.
Intense unwillingness boiled in his chest. He had to do everything in his power to suppress the despair and rage in his heart.
No!
My fate, as well as the fate of the living beings of the infinite worlds, shouldn't be just this!!!
There must be … a way …
Gu Qing Shan forced himself to calm down, focused his mind, and seriously pondered.
He suddenly recalled what happened before.
That was the last thing the Eternal Shadow said before it dissipated.
「 The Old Gods had created many things that were more powerful than themselves, so before the infinite worlds are completely destroyed, no one can say for sure that nothing unexpected would happen 」
The words were still fresh in his mind and ears.
Gu Qing Shan kept mulling over the other party's words over and over again.
At a certain moment, an unprecedented thought suddenly popped up in his mind.
Indeed, just like the Old Gods' wish, the living beings of the infinite worlds should continue to grow stronger.
But this wasn't to become a better defensive tool for the Old Gods.
Because — — -
The living beings were created by the Old Gods, but who could say that the living beings couldn't surpass the Old Gods?
Only by becoming stronger than the Old Gods would they be able to forge a path out of despair and reach true hope!
Only by surpassing the Old Gods would they be able to overcome all difficulties!
This was the path that the living beings should take!!!
Gu Qing Shan clenched his fist tightly.
