Chapter 2280: Blood tells (1)
The closer that I came to the center, the more confused that I was about this place.
After all, I already had an idea of what the rules of the divine realm was and how the landscape in this place was created.
It was all based on the god that was living in that area.
Their background was what gave the basis of how the landscape would turn out.
It also gave a general idea of what kind of god lived in that place.
But for this place to be completely empty, it normally would have meant that there was no god living in this place. However, I could feel the flow of the divine energy all around me that told me this wasn’t the case.
The only other explanation was that whatever god lived here just didn’t have anything that influenced this area.
For a god to not have anything that influenced the area, it would mean that they were completely on the inside. This didn’t seem possible since all gods were supposed to represent something to begin with.
That one thing that they represented was the source of their faith and power.
If there really wasn’t anything that a god represented, then it would be even more dangerous.
"Destruction or Creation...huh?" I muttered to myself while thinking about this.
In the end, I tossed that thought aside as I charged even faster towards the center of this place.
I had no idea what would be waiting for me at the end, but it was already too late to turn back at this point. I had to see just what it was that would be waiting for me.
However, there was a point where I found that I wasn’t able to move any further in.
It wasn’t as if there was anything physical that stopped me from moving further, it seemed like there was something invisible that was right in front of me.
Since I had been moving quite fast, there was quite a bit of impact that came when I slammed into this invisible thing.
After landing, I reached my hand out towards what I had just hit and it didn’t take long for me to find it.
It was as if there was this invisible wall that was there in front of me.
It didn’t seem like this was a normal kind of barrier since I couldn’t feel anything from it other than what I could touch. With the way that it felt to the touch, it was like a barrier that was made of some kind of invisible glass.
But as far as I could tell, there shouldn’t be a material like this in the world. freёwebnoѵel.com
So it was hard to tell just where this invisible wall came from and what it was made of.
The only thing that I knew was that this thing was blocking my way.
Which was why I started looking around to see if there was some opening in this invisible wall in front of me.
No matter what I did, I wasn’t able to find the opening that I was looking for. Even when I tried using my divine energy against this thing, it didn’t seem like it had any effect at all.
In fact, I could feel that there was something strange that happened to the divine energy that was used against this barrier.
It felt like there was something that absorbed this divine energy.
I lost all connection to that divine energy, almost as if it had been stolen from me.
Feeling this, I couldn’t help becoming wary of this barrier since there’s no telling what it would do if it could absorb divine energy like this.
Only it turned out that absorbing the divine energy actually activated this barrier.
Once the divine energy was absorbed, it seemed like there was something that was triggered with the barrier as words started forming in the air in front of me.
"Blood will tell all truths and reveal the path forward."
"Blood..." I couldn’t help muttering to myself when I saw this.
The more that I thought about it, the more confused I was since I had no idea what this message meant by blood.
Only the fact remained that this barrier was blocking the way forward and without figuring out a way to get past it, it wasn’t as if there was anything I could do.
Which was why I came to the simplest solution that I could think of.
"If blood is needed to open the way, then I’ll give it blood."
It wasn’t hard for me to draw blood from my finger, it only took a single thought to draw this drop of blood out.
Then wrapping it with divine energy to keep it from dispersing, I sent it forward towards the barrier.
The moment that drop of blood made contact with the barrier, I could sense that everything was absorbed by it. Not just the blood, the divine energy was also absorbed without a single trace of resistance.
But when it was over, I could tell that there was something that had changed in front of me.
It wasn’t as if I could see the change that happened, but I reached out to touch the barrier. When I reached out like that, I found that there was nothing in front of me even though I knew that there was a barrier that was there before.
When I moved my hand to the side, I found that there was this door that had been created in the barrier.
The barrier still existed in the space around me, but it had disappeared right in front of me. The shape of it was a kind of doorway as if it was giving me access to whatever was behind this barrier.
"So what’s so special about my blood?" I had to ask this since I knew that it definitely was related to this.
Otherwise, the other gods wouldn’t have been so unwilling to come with me.
This barrier had to be one of the things that prevented them from entering this space with me.
"What else is left?" I couldn’t help asking as I looked forward.
