Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 1276 - 822: Cosmic Reincarnation
The towering temple appeared grand and weathered, each brick seeming to tell the tale of time’s passage.
Eve carefully examined the familiar "Pantheon" before her and slowly nodded.
Ulinos was right.
This was indeed not the Pantheon.
Although it looked exactly like the Pantheon, its aura was even more ancient...
That comparison wasn’t against the reassembled Pantheon of the Segis World.
But against the true Pantheon that existed in Eve’s memories from the World Tree’s legacy.
Perhaps... this was the prototype of the Pantheon.
Gazing at the temple before her, a hint of understanding flashed through Eve’s heart as she speculated a bit about the origin of the Pantheon’s design.
Following Ulinos, the two demigods approached the front of this ancient temple.
Ulinos raised the purple light orb in his hand, and the light illuminated the ancient stone door of the temple.
At the same time, Eve sensed a faint pulse from the blue orb deep within her divine soul, the True Divine Artifact stored in the inter-dimensional space, and the World Tree’s body in the Segis World that was faintly linked to her incarnation...
The next instant, the entire temple radiated a soft glow, and the doors slowly opened.
Simultaneously, an emotionless voice echoed on the temple’s platform:
"Verification... successful, welcome back... Supreme... Master..."
It was an unknown language, but Eve could understand it.
Moreover, this language was not unfamiliar to Eve.
Before she awoke as the World Tree, she had heard it and always thought it was the voice of the gold finger system...
But now it seemed, it wasn’t the system that the transmigrator brought along at all.
Welcoming back? Supreme Master?
Eve couldn’t help but glance at Ulinos beside her, but found no change in the other, as if he hadn’t heard the voice.
"Master Ulinos, did you hear anything just now?"
Eve couldn’t help but ask.
"Hear what?"
Ulinos was slightly stunned.
He turned his head back, looking at Eve with confusion:
"What are you talking about?"
Seeing the unfeigned confusion on Ulinos’ face, Eve fell silent.
"No, maybe I’m just too nervous."
She said.
Ulinos hadn’t heard the voice, which meant the mysterious language was only directed at Eve.
Before figuring everything out, Eve instinctively felt she should keep this matter to herself...
Though barely suppressing her astonishment, Eve was puzzled as to why only she could hear that voice, and who the welcome was for... Ulinos’ key, or was it for herself?
Eve was not that narcissistic.
She didn’t believe her transmigrated soul had any connection with what was so supreme and high.
If there was a reason, it must be related to her identity as the World Tree.
But then again, if this temple was older than the Pantheon, then it should have existed long before the World Tree descended upon the Segis Universe...
Can’t make sense of it.
Eve slightly frowned, feeling that the puzzle she hadn’t solved yet had turned into another enigma.
Ulinos, observing Eve’s slightly furrowed brows, gently shook his head:
"Your Eminence Eve, you don’t need to worry, the road ahead is safe."
"But... you must also be mentally prepared because what we’re about to see might strongly challenge your worldview and your future..."
"Anos was like this; he endured the pollution of the abyss but went mad after seeing the things within the Land of Origin."
Ulinos sighed, seemingly somewhat ruefully.
Things within the Land of Origin?
Eve felt a stir in her heart, retracting her thoughts, and looked at the deep doors of the temple.
Though the door was open now, it was pitch dark inside, nothing was visible.
It was like a giant maw waiting for its prey.
"Let’s go."
Ulinos stepped in first.
The movement was adept, seemingly accustomed.
Eve hesitated for a few seconds, then followed suit.
Upon stepping through the temple doors, the scenery abruptly changed.
Eve found herself in a starry sky.
No, it was not a starry sky.
It seemed to be a broken universe.
Deadly silent, cold, as if time stood still here.
Eve was shocked to find countless ruined planes floating around her, densely packed, too numerous to count.
However, these planes were very small, the largest being only as big as a palm, and the smallest like sesame seeds...
With Eve’s True God-level powerful vision, she could see through the shattered pocket crystal walls to the scenes within the planes.
They were broken, dead worlds, some still showing traces of civilizations long extinct.
These ruins weren’t of Segis style but had an eerie and grotesque feeling, rough and sinister.
Among the ruins, she could see some grotesque remains, looking like dead insects...
"This is..."
Eve frowned slightly.
"Magnificent, isn’t it? This is a once-destroyed universe."
Ulinos said.
A once?
Eve keenly grasped a certain keyword in the other’s words.
At this moment, steps gradually appeared beneath the feet of the two True Gods, leading into the depths of the miniature cosmos.
The steps were similarly white, almost identical to the ones the two myths traversed before entering the Land of Origin, both in color and design.
Ulinos stepped forward, ascending the stairs towards the depths, speaking as He walked:
"This time the universe is called the Poseidon World, ruled by an intelligent species known as the Curich. They developed a splendid civilization and have achieved great mastery in the realm of psychic power..."
As He spoke, He glanced at Eve:
"When it comes to psychic power, perhaps you find it unfamiliar, but if I use a different term, I believe you should be quite familiar with it."
"What is it?"
Eve asked.
"Faith power."
Ulinos replied ruefully.
After speaking, He sighed deeply:
"Yet, just as their civilization reached its peak, an apocalyptic disaster struck. Endless swarms appeared in the universe, devouring all energy, destroying everything."
Eve was already shocked by Ulinos’s words.
After a moment of silence, He couldn’t help but ask:
"These things... how do you know about them?"
Ulinos paused and said:
"Of course, I’ve seen it in the records."
Then, He looked at Eve:
"You can see it too."
Eve was slightly taken aback, about to continue questioning, when He found the steps had reached the end.
At the end of the steps was a platform that seemed familiar.
It was identical to the platform at the entrance to the Land of Origin, and behind the platform stood a temple just like the Pantheon, except before the temple, a tall stele stood.
The stele was inscribed with densely packed text, text that Eve had never seen before. It seemed to carry traces of Elven language, Dragon language, Titan language, and the ancient god languages once prevalent among ancient gods.
Upon seeing the text, Eve was startled to find that even though He had never seen these words, He could understand their meaning...
"Quite surprising, isn’t it? We have never seen this text before, but we can understand it. I call it the Origin Text..."
"This text possesses strange powers, perhaps not evident here, but upon arriving in the Segis World, you’ll discover its uniqueness... it possesses Magic Power."
"Incidentally, Dragon language is what I created based on the text here."
Ulinos said.
Perhaps... Elven language is the same.
Looking at the text, Eve’s gaze was a bit complex.
The text was densely packed, covering the entire stele.
The content it recorded was the history of this universe...
From the birth of life, to evolution, to the development of civilization, to eventual destruction...
At the end of the stele, a section of text was listed separately —
The Poseidon World lasted for 530 million years, originating 34,000 Original Law instances, successfully collecting 32,000 instances for my master.
Reading this piece of text, Eve fell into silence.
"What does this mean?"
He looked at Ulinos.
A vague guess emerged in His heart, and His expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
"Literal meaning."
Ulinos was very calm.
"Let’s go, to the next one."
He raised the light sphere in His hand again, and the luminous glow enveloped the temple doors behind the platform.
The doors gradually opened, and Eve’s ears once again heard that lifeless and consistent voice.
Yet, standing before the door, Eve felt unable to take that step.
He felt He already knew what lay beyond the door.
"Come in."
Ulinos said calmly.
After speaking, He walked in first.
Eve took a deep breath and stepped through the door once more.
His vision suddenly changed, arriving again in a starry sky.
No...
This is yet another shattered universe.
Once again, numerous broken realms float in the void, lifeless and ruined.
In those broken realms, traces of life activity could still be seen.
However, as Eve peered through the shattered crystal wall system and saw the densely packed remains on the miniature land, His expression changed slightly.
He couldn’t help but glance at Ulinos beside Him, yet Ulinos’s expression remained calm.
"Extraterrestrial... is that what it means?"
Eve asked, somewhat incredulously. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Ulinos was silent for a moment, then slowly sighed:
"I don’t know... From the moment I descended into the Segis World, I lost the memories of the past."
Eve was speechless.
After several seconds, He slowly withdrew His gaze from that broken realm.
The remnants on that realm were none other than.
They were dragons.
Dragons identical to Ulinos’s true form, revered by all creatures in the Segis World as Primordial Giant Dragons!
This is a universe belonging to dragons.
