Chapter 143: The Gate! The Gate of the Abyss!
Etheric plane.

Xiao En was much more relaxed when he entered the Ether Plane again. Last time he was still a small fry, and if he wasn't careful he would be blown half to death by the wind of chaos. Now he couldn't be said to be a big boss, but at least he was a well-known figure. A high-level wizard would still have a good reputation even in the outer plane. In some other worlds with low magic civilizations, high-level wizards were also well-known figures in the entire continent, and warriors above the extraordinary level 10 could become city lords.

A light gray mist covered the front of the sight. When the wind of chaos blew, pairs of eyes could be seen emerging from the nothingness.

Eye of the Void.

One of the sleeping Old Ones in the Etheric Plane, it is a dark energy body with thousands of eyes on its surface, part of its body is in the Etheric Plane, and the other part is wandering in the Astral Plane. Many powerful bodies of the Old Ones are not in one plane, they transcend the boundaries of the plane space, and their huge bodies appear in multiple levels at the same time in an indescribable posture.

The deep voice of Seal No. 1 sounded: "Master, prepare to be summoned."

“It will come to you.”

Xiao En slowly closed his eyes, and as he spread his palms, a strange silver door key mark appeared in his palms, with a black eyeball like a bubble in the center. This is a mark without substance, the embodiment of the door key's authority, and also the law of the door way.

The fog in front of me began to surge, as if some huge monster was about to cross the space and land here.

next second.

The rolling mist in the void spread and surged like a tide. In front of Xiao En's sight, the void gradually turned into reality. The change between the virtual and the real was the extraordinary power of [changing reality]. At present, he was not qualified to get involved. The minimum threshold for mastering extraordinary power was the demigod level. A magnificent black fortress emerged in the mist. It had a black shell like glazed light, and the surface was a diamond-shaped polyhedron. It was smooth and there was no entrance or exit. It was suddenly teleported in front of Xiao En.

It was still that familiar, unusually bright hall.

The light ball of Sealed Artifact No. 0 - the Heart of All Things appeared in front of Xiao En, and its voice was slightly surprised: "You have become the owner of Sealed Artifact No. 1?"

Xiao En nodded slightly and said, "Yes."

Sealed Artifact No. 0: “…”

“Do you want to inherit the artificial godhood?... With your current strength, it is a little difficult to master the artificial godhood!... I suggest you come back after you are promoted to the Legend of Destiny!..."

Xiao En slowly shook his head and said, "I don't need an artificial godhead."

"The only price I can pay for becoming the master of Seal No. 1 is that I won't format it."

The light ball of Seal No. 0 was flickering, and it asked in surprise, "Are you going to give up your artificial godhood?"

Xiao En nodded and said, "To me, the Mechanical Brain and the Heart of All Things are more valuable. If we only rely on an artificial godhead, at most a false god will be born."

Sealed Artifact No. 0: “…”

"So what brought you here for?"

As long as there is a being with self-awareness, it will have a desire to survive. The same is true for Sealed Object No. 0 - The Heart of All Things. Although it is willing to accept the formatted fate, being able to survive is undoubtedly a better choice. A hint of joy unconsciously emerges in its mechanical sound.

——Sealed Artifact No. 0 - Heart of All Things [Elemental Construct] [Energy Body] (Challenge Level 30)? !

Xiao En was not ready to let Seal No. 0 recognize its master now. Anyone who was not a fool could feel that it was more powerful than Seal No. 1. Its fully energized form was beyond the limits of ordinary things. The natives could trap Seal No. 1 and lock it up, but they could not find Seal No. 0. Strictly speaking, Seal No. 0 was no weaker than other demigods.

Xiao En said calmly, "I want to take the key."

Sealed Object No. 0 remained silent for a long time, then slowly said, "Amon still doesn't plan to give up?"

"He will die!"

Although it has never left the etheric plane, Seal No. 0 knows many things about the real world because it has the ability to see through all planes and can directly see everything in other planes as an "observer". It has extremely powerful prophetic abilities. When the offspring of the Moth Mother came, it predicted the future.

Xiao En said calmly: "No one can convince him."

"If he really died because of this, it was the fate he chose himself."

Amon will die.

More than once, someone predicted Amon's death. Lady Hecate and the seal No. 0 in front of him - the Heart of All Things, they all predicted that Amon would fall after forcibly opening the laws of the doorway.

But Eamon was determined to do so, and Sean couldn't stop him.

The light ball of Seal No. 0 flickered, and it said in a cold mechanical voice: "You can take the key with you."

"But you must pass the test first."

"are you ready?"

Xiao En took a deep breath and said, "What is the test?"

Seal No. 0 shook his head and said, "I don't know. The demigods left a reflection of history. It could be a difficult battle, or it could be a simple question."

"No one knows what the final authority of the Portkey requires?"

"But your life will not be in danger."

Xiao En nodded silently and said, "Then send me in."

A curtain of light slowly opened.

The cold voice of Seal No. 0 said: "If you can't pass, you can return here."

Xiao En nodded slightly and stepped resolutely into the light curtain.

next second.

His figure emerged in the void, and before him appeared a series of ladders. They were invisible stairs in the void, leading to the end of the sky. All around him were changing shadows, including prosperous towns, cities of the Enlightenment, ancient villages, and many scenes that seemed like reflections of history.

In this shadow, there are wandering black giants!
"A reflection of human history?"

Xiao En's expression was extremely shocked. In the void on his left and right, almost all miniatures of human history from the Stone Age to modern times emerged. In each miniature of history, there was a shadow of a black giant wandering around. There was extremely enormous power and laws contained in it, but he currently had no way to understand it.

Non-human races such as elves, dwarves, orcs, halflings, etc., all had gods (creator) first and then their civilization, but humans are different. Humans had civilization first and then the human pantheon was born.

Elves can hug the thighs of Corellon, dwarves can hug the thighs of Moradin, orcs have their main god Gruumsh, halflings have the kind-hearted Yondalla, and so on.

But humans can only rely on themselves.

Humans are the only race that has worked hard to give birth to many gods that constitute the human pantheon, and this pantheon has also attracted many ancient gods to join.

As a result, humans became the leader of the ethnic groups with destiny.

"The [Human] realm?"

Xiao En walked up the invisible stairs. He could see that there were 5,000 steps in total. This number touched him inexplicably. Each step was about three meters apart. This was not for ordinary people, but for giants. The top of the stairs was about 15,000 meters high.

As Xiao En moved forward, he felt an inexplicable pressure, and the magic power in his body seemed to stagnate. Some unique law restricted the energy here.

Reflections of history continue to emerge on both sides.

An unknown amount of time had passed before Xiao En finally reached the end of the endless ladder. After five thousand steps, the ladder became an illusory reflection and did not really exist.

"That's the future!..." Xiao En suddenly had an epiphany.

For an instant.

He felt dizzy and when he came to his senses again, he found himself in a majestic golden palace. It looked a little dilapidated, as if part of it had collapsed in a great battle.

An ancient sigh echoed.

"You finally came."

Xiao En looked up and saw a row of ancient and magnificent bronze thrones. In the center were twelve chairs, all over ten meters high. The dome of the palace was a rotating silver starry sky, and on both sides were empty and deep purple light. The figure who was speaking had his back to him, looking like a withered giant.

Xiao En whispered, "Where is this place?"

The withered giant said calmly, "The Pantheon of Holy Terra."

“Everyone who has ever ascended to godhood on this planet has been here.”

Xiao En slowly walked to the opposite side of the bronze throne. In front of him was a dried-up giant, whose skin and flesh had withered, leaving only a little skeleton and gray flesh. The fire of the soul was jumping in his empty eye sockets. He stared at Xiao En in front of him and sighed, "We have been waiting for you for a thousand years."

Xiao En looked at the dried giant in front of him with a complicated look. The other party was not even a physical existence, because He was between reality and illusion, like a reflection of time.

He whispered, "Who are you?"

The withered giant on the throne shook his head slightly and said, "I don't remember. I am just a reflection of the history they left behind. If you like, you can also call me a nobody or a political commissar."

"This is the code name used by the last demigod who fell into eternal madness."

"This body of mine is a reflection of him."

Xiao En looked at the dried-up giant with holes all over his body and fell silent.

After a moment, he looked up at the withered giant in front of him and whispered, "I want to take the third portkey."

The withered giant nodded slightly and said, "I know."

"But before that, I have some questions for you, which are also the questions that they left behind."

Xiao En nodded silently and said, "Ask."

The withered giant on the throne smiled, looked down at Xiao En in front of him, and said slowly: "Which year are you from?"

Xiao En said calmly, "2024." The withered giant's expression showed a hint of surprise, and he murmured, "Has it been so long?"

"You are not from the same era as us."

The soul fire in the withered giant's pupils was shining, and he seemed to be somewhat excited. He stared at Xiao En and said, "First question."

"Has the Chernobyl nuclear leak been resolved?"

Xiao En was silent for a moment after hearing this, then nodded slightly and said, "It's solved safely."

The withered giant didn't seem surprised by this. He just wanted to get a definite answer from Xiao En. After a while, he asked in another firm voice, as if whispering, "It's been decades."

"Did we win?"

"Has mankind entered a peaceful and beautiful new era? Has your generation begun interstellar travel and exploring the universe?"

The withered giant's increasingly excited voice echoed heavily in the palace.

This does not seem to be a problem with the same person, because they also come from different eras, separated by several decades. In the Dark Age, there were several groups of outsiders from Earth, but until the gray fog completely enveloped the entire planet, no outsider souls entered Holy Terra anymore.

Xiao En didn't know how to answer for a moment.

The withered giant stared at him for a long, long time, and finally let out a deep sigh: "We failed?"

Xiao En shook his head firmly and said, "No."

“The Soviet Union collapsed. But the red flag lives on in the East.”

"Humanity has not entered a new era. In my last memory, the world is still devastated by war, resources are increasingly scarce, climate change is becoming more and more serious, and the starry sky and the universe are still an unattainable dream for us!..."

The withered giant on the bronze throne remained silent. He seemed to be a little sad, and murmured, "What about you? Young man..."

Xiao En looked up at the withered giant in front of him and said calmly: "We still remember the inheritance."

“Although I am powerless to change anything, there are still many people who remember it.”

The withered giant smiled, and his figure began to dissipate with the wind. He seemed to be relieved and calmly accepted his own demise. He slowly said: "Don't give up hope... Don't give up even if you fail..."

"Go."

"The third Portkey is right there."

Wisps of grey dust fell into the palace. The reflection of history returned to history. In a certain historical projection of the Endless Ladder, a majestic giant slowly stood up from the ruins of history.

He looked in the direction of Sean and slowly turned around. Under his majestic reflection, countless children were running happily and many young people were fighting and struggling heroically. The giant let out a faint sigh and gradually merged into the dust of history.

In this magnificent palace, there is no longer any trace of the demigod’s aura, and the last bit of its reflection has also merged into human history, becoming a trace of time.

An extremely majestic black giant was projected and descended in the weird kingdom.

He slowly stood up from the ruins of history, standing on the ancient battlefield of the Dark Ages, gazing at the starry sky at the end of the universe, as if he was looking at something and hoping for something.

As the last traces of them fade, the most powerful reflection of the Titans ever to appear in human history descends upon the Weird Realm.

But He just looked at the endless starry sky calmly and fell into long contemplation.

Abyss City.

Amon's figure appeared in the sky. His expression was a little complicated. He stared at the black giant reflected in the distance and murmured, "The reflection left by the last demigod of Earth has also disappeared."

A mottled emblem of wheat ears dotted with stars appeared in Amon's palm.

He stared at the emblem on his palm for a long time, and wisps of bloody fire from the bottomless abyss emerged. The bloody flames melted the star emblem in his hand, and finally turned into a little dust, which fell on the devastated land of the weird country.

The last devil's pact that bound Him had been broken.

Amon stared at the giant who reflected history and said calmly, "I have fulfilled the promise of the Fire Thief."

"You failed."

"It is impossible for humans to always be united!"

Wisps of bloody fire ignited on Amon's body, and his grey robe turned to ashes. A gorgeous red and black robe engraved with endless magic patterns emerged. A pair of curved horns grew on Amon's forehead, and the ruby ​​scepter in his hand shook the laws of the material plane. His figure became taller and taller, and in an instant he turned into a majestic giant dozens of meters tall.

The nameless people completely became history, and the last bit of glory of the Dark Ages disappeared.

He is now Nameless.

Aamon raised the ruby ​​scepter in his hand towards the sky. Amidst a burst of lightning and thunder, the rumbling thunder covered the sky. His hair and skin seemed to be mottled and faded, turning into a deep dark color. The flames of purgatory burned in his scarlet pupils. Along with the extraordinary divine laws that changed reality, a dark purple light curtain was torn across the sky above the entire continent, as if it was an aurora passing across the planet.

Xiao En's figure slowly emerged, with an ancient eye-shaped door key floating in his palm.

Huge blood-red beams of light shot straight into the sky!
Above the Abyss City, the wizard towers gathered enormous amounts of energy. Amon opened his arms and controlled the vast earth energy of the entire Abyss City. As the power of the three door keys gathered together, the sky of the entire weird kingdom was completely torn apart. The endless gray fog that enveloped the planet dissipated, and a huge, majestic, and ancient gate appeared in the atmosphere.

The door is engraved with ancient tree-like patterns, and countless mysterious symbolic carvings emerge one after another.

Eamon looked back at Sean.

He smiled.

Then, He resolutely grasped the ruby ​​scepter in His hand and slowly pushed open the door of truth that represented the law of the door path. It was the authority that came from the One from whom all things are united.

Everything around was being decomposed, including the air, and the breath of turbulent space and time emerged.

The law is dissociating all matter!
Behind the space where the door opened, Sean seemed to see endless light flying by. Amon's figure was dismembered bit by bit, and the ruby ​​scepter in his hand gradually dissipated and turned into dust. He stretched his palm into the void behind the door, and first the skin was decomposed, then the flesh and blood were decomposed, and finally only a pale skeleton was left.

But Amon still did not stop. His flesh and blood kept regenerating and decomposing, and his whole body seemed to be dismembered by slow slicing. While his life energy kept regenerating his flesh and blood, he was slowly decomposed into a skeleton by the turbulence of time and space.

In that pale skull, there was only the blazing fire of the soul!
That is the fire of purgatory that comes from endless bloody battles.

Behind the passage of the door, the ever-changing stream of light began to freeze, and Xiao En felt a huge and chaotic will. The picture froze in the deep purple darkness, and he saw a series of dark wells, which were very close to the bottomless abyss in the records.

at the same time.

A torn portal seemed like a pair of deep purple-black pupils appearing on a certain layer of the bottomless abyss.

If it were somewhere else, this might cause great panic, but this is the bottomless abyss. The moment the portal appeared, lines of demons approached the portal that appeared in the sky. The demons did not need to know what was behind the portal, they would go in and take a look themselves.

Amon's figure continued to decompose, his body had become half human and half skeleton. He used three door keys to lock the present, past and future, anchoring time and space. Eventually, the laws of the doorway began to converge, and a gradually stable portal was slowly opening.

This is a door leading to the bottomless abyss!
Amon will die.

Sean looked at Aamon who used his body to hold open the portal, and thought of the prophecies of Lady Hecate and the Heart of All Things. The laws of the portal were decomposing his body. Even though the demigod had completely energized his body, he was still being disintegrated into dust bit by bit.

That is the turbulence of time and space, equivalent to the legendary great disintegration technique that is effective all the time.

The bottomless abyss, the well of darkness.

The door that Amon used three portkeys to forcibly open manifested the laws of the path in the bottomless abyss. The authority of the Lord of the Abyss anchored this level and also alarmed the enormous chaotic consciousness, which was the will of the abyss. It felt the portal opened by Amon, and above the Well of Darkness, a torn space crack seemed like a slowly opening deep eye.

In an instant.

The gods who inhabited the entire Abyss were alarmed, and the incarnation of their will descended here. But no one dared to act rashly, because there was a being who had arrived at the portal.

Weird country.

In front of Sean's sight, he suddenly saw a huge hand extending from nothingness. This hand, which was completely composed of death energy, directly opened the laws of the door path, grabbed Amon who was almost completely decomposed, and sent him into the void-like darkness.

——Change reality [supernatural power]!
——Change space [supernatural power]!
——Change time [supernatural power]!
The power of the gate was stabilized by a law from another universe. A dark portal tore through the sky and appeared directly above the entire planet. Then there were the screams and roars of demons, and high-level demons poured in through the portal.

boom! boom! boom!
It was like an exploding firework of flesh and blood. High-level demons were completely blown up by the erosion of the gray fog, but some of them survived. The laws within them were transforming and assimilating the distorted and crazy laws of the grotesque country.

This is the real devil!
They have a greater ability to adapt than any other living thing.

This portal to other universes lasted for twelve minutes, and thousands of demons poured into the weird kingdom. As the portal slowly closed, the laws of the portal path also returned, and the three keys turned into brilliant streams of light across the sky.

Sean saw the projections of the demigods. The figure of Lady Hecate appeared in the sky above the Abyss City and instantly chased after one of the portkeys that turned into streams of light.

But soon all the demigods of the Path of Death stopped with horror on their faces.

Because they suddenly discovered that their power over death had been taken away!
The world's law of death fell silent.

It was not until the laws of the gate path completely dissipated that they were surprised to feel the return of the laws of the power of death.

"Eamon is gone."

Xiao En slowly turned around and walked down the astronomical platform of the tower.

Amon leaves.

From today on, he is the only Amon. The Weird Kingdom also welcomed a large number of visitors from other Crystal Wall universes. If Amon succeeds in the end, Sigil City will be completely connected to the distant universe, the City of Ten Thousand Doors, with portals to all known spaces.
