The Tower of Souls remains silent.
Ulrich, a formidable warrior who survived until the end of the last era, is still a top-tier force even in this era.
Yet, the Tower of Souls does not truly fear this power, it simply... fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Just as the forces of the last era cannot exist for long in the current era, the power they project here from the depths of the World Sea will not last long either.
Moreover, after missing this opportunity, they cannot replicate their current power for a century.
After a period of silence, creak~
The shadowy doors of the Tower of Souls slowly open a crack, and a pair of jet black eyes, exuding a rich aura of death, stare at Baiyi through countless times and spaces.
"I underestimated you, never thought an ant could wield the power of a Saint."
A hoarse, aged voice sounded, full of deep resentment.
"I have a question for you," Baiyi smiled, "A long time ago, you shouldn’t have existed... So why do you still live?"
The Tower of Souls fell silent again, listening to the young query, the eyes full of madness.
For a long time, the eyes emitting a dense aura of death seemed to show a trace of reminiscing, but they did not answer Baiyi’s question: "You possess Ulrich’s power, and indeed, we cannot harm you this time, but..."
"We will meet soon, truly meet, a Saint ought to exist, but it’s not you...."
[You are subjected to long-term gaze from the Eye of Direct Death, triggering instant death effect, your soul is about to be annihilated.]
[You used the Power of Saint, immune to the instant death effect.]
Boom!
The Tower of Souls is crushed by a powerful force, beginning to shatter inch by inch.
The pair of eyes exuding death were full of unwillingness, sweeping through the sky, the voice with penetrating power carried far: "His power has been exhausted, no more divine power....."
Buzz~
The Tower of Souls shatters.
Turning into a handful of star fragments, disappearing before Baiyi’s eyes.
Baiyi did not find the backstab from the Tower of Souls strange.
Firstly, he couldn’t squash that demigod with a slap mainly because the Power of Saint was too little; he needed to reserve enough power to annihilate this tower, or he might have been killed directly by this shadow, as the panel prompt mentioned earlier.
As for the demigod... now if not dying, it’s heavily injured.
Baiyi might not be able to win against a High-Tier Legendary or a demigod, but fighting a heavily injured one posed not much problem.
And in the brief conversation, Baiyi learned a lot, the presence in the Tower of Souls... are Saints!
Saints from several eras ago.
The line of Saints wasn’t severed, but rather all huddled inside that tower. Baiyi didn’t know what these Saints intended, but he could guess a bit.
He was obstructing them, and the only way for him as a weak Saint to be obstructive is... legacy!
They want to monopolize the legacy of the Saints, or some aspects of the Saints, thus they didn’t wish for new Saints to discover this.
They undoubtedly stand on the opposite side of the Saints....
The reasons are unclear, but the information gathered is enough!
Feeling the presence of prying gazes, seemingly due to the words from the Tower of Souls, these moved away gazes probe this ant unscrupulously again.
Numerous gazes are on him, and all those who pay attention to him now are... Gods!
Baiyi still did not rise from the Mechanical Throne, he did not block the gaze of these prying eyes, lightly tapping a magnetic mechanism with his fingertips.
Smiling, he said, "Greetings, Your Excellencies."
He looked up, in the distance, the Netherworld resumed its turmoil, those purely Legendary gazes watching here in trepidation, still not recovered from the shock of the power of a Saint from moments ago.
"That thing just now was called the Tower of Souls, if accounted properly, it probably predates you, Your Excellencies."
Baiyi said calmly, it’s about revealing dark pasts, who couldn’t do that?
"No one knows from how distant a past the bizarreness of dimensional turbulence originates, likewise, this Tower of Souls is the same, perhaps Your Excellencies might wonder, why would I, a mere Gold, know something unknown to the Divine?"
"This actually isn’t some big secret." Baiyi’s fingertips continuously emitted a ringing sound, he paused slightly as if in thought.
Looking at the current World Legend Level soaring to 40, he said quite seriously: "My spiritual power is strong because I obtained some remnants of the legacy from the Tower of Souls."
"This legacy is incomparably powerful, enabling me to possess the potential to enter top-tier taboos."
"As for why I’m saying this now...."
Baiyi thought for a moment and smiled: "The purpose of that tower just now, you saw it, it wanted me dead, seemingly not wanting others to know of its existence."
"Although it seems I and it are using Your Excellencies, but..."
Baiyi spread his hands: "Between a weak Gold in Xia you temporarily cannot touch, and a divine-level influence secretly hiding behind the Gods yet findable by Your Excellencies, I’d say Your Excellencies should be more interested in the latter."
Boom!
In front, the weak demigod’s qi suddenly erupted, looking at Baiyi with extreme trepidation, numerous Legendary Ghosts rushed towards, viridian mist spreading madly.
"Tsk... Your Excellencies... farewell..."
Buzz~
"Using me.... requires a price, even if I allowed you to use it."
Suddenly, a strong sense of confinement erupted in the surrounding space, the rules of space around quickly deepened, it seemed some god cast part of the rules of space from another world upon Xia.
