Apotheosis

There were six great caves lying five thousand feet

below the ground of the Jade Pure Realm's northwest side.

Each cave was about three thousand feet in diameter.

Each cave's outer layer was covered with meat in the state of constant shrinking, which made the entire cave look like a beating heart.

While the cave was merely three thousand feet high, the inner space was far larger than this.

Each and every cave had its own world.

In the lowest cave stood the Mysterious Yellow Tower.

At the very bottom of the tower was a man holding a bronze mirror in the shape of Eight Diagrams.

He was clad in a cyan robe and looked rather wise and remarkable. His aura was impressive.

"What a sharp insight!

The channel has been broken!

This person's control over the Source World has risen to a new level..."

Grabbing the bronze mirror, he flew up to the top of the tower.

Carved on the surface at the top were densely packed scriptures, all of which were written in Sanskrit.

"Cutting and sharpening..."

the immortal-like old man muttered on top of the tower.

Each time he chanted, a circle of golden light spread out from his body.

The golden light swept right past the scriptures, making them rotate chaotically. An extremely solemn aura was emitted, making the old man's aura grow noble and grand.

Anyone who faced the suppression of the golden light couldn't help but fall to their knees.

But once the young man was swept by the light, he merely frowned and shouted, "Old man, the channel you've built so painstakingly has been destroyed! You deceived me again. Didn't you tell me that the channel wouldn't ever be discovered?"

Then, he threw the bronze mirror right in front of the other man.

The latter merely continued muttering.

And the golden light continued circling the Sanskrit words.

Before such a solemn scene, the young man's behavior seemed rather inappropriate.

A few minutes later, the old man's eyes shot open.

Buzz...

The golden light completely dissipated, and the Sanskrit words stopped circling as well, returning to their original form.

Hearing that the channel had been destroyed, the old man showed no sign of discontent on his face. Instead, he smiled and said, "As I expected, the young man wouldn't die under the Maximized En

e warrior made a breakthrough, they could obtain a physical body that carried the Other Shore Token from the higher floor. By then, they could ring the bell once again.

The more they cultivated, the more difficult it was to strengthen their bodies, making it harder to ring the bell again.

In the previous month, after the young man who carried a sword on his back rang the bell, he took away the Other Shore Token on the thirtieth floor.

Again, reaching the thirty-first floor from the thirtieth floor was by no means an easy feat.

For some, they could spend thousands of years trying to get there but to no avail.

But only a month later, the man managed to ring the bell again—in just a single month, his physical strength had increased drastically. It was completely astonishing.

In the Ruin Graveyard

At the very core of the Divine Bell City lay a huge bronze bell.

It was considered the Ruin Graveyard's most holy treasure—the object all the creatures there relied on.

Each warrior who had reached the Other Shore Realm would visit to ring the bell and obtain their token.

"Dong!"

A long ringing resounded across the Divine Bell City.

The entire place boiled with excitement.

The sound of the bell belonged to the thirty-first floor. Very few people in the Ruin Graveyard could ever make it.

Sitting cross-legged under the huge bell, Rocher had already entered the Mysterious Yellow Tower.

According to the rules, he had to choose the most suitable Other Shore Token before the bell chime stopped.
