Chapter 790: Summit of the Gods, Tower of the World_2
"If everything goes smoothly... After completing the Tri-element Structure, I will face a long period of bottleneck, as I didn't think too much about it at first."
"You should be roughly the same as me."
"Yes." Sonia nodded, Roger thought for a moment, feeling that speaking honestly now might make him seem like a madman to the two.
Not to mention the Third Ring, even speaking of the Tri-element Structure would make Tersko's eyes bulge, so he hesitated for a moment and nodded along.
"Hmm... then let's go broaden our horizons together."
Tersko patted his chest, "Although this is only my second time participating, there's not just one person backing me. As long as you stay by my side and don't cause trouble yourself, no one will dare to make things difficult for you!"
"Got it." He looked serious.
"This time we're just here to watch the show!"
"In the future, you best find a place that suits you, just like here!"
As he spoke, he looked around.
"The real world is too barren, and the number of Transcendents it can nurture is limited. I've heard you're still developing in reality." Tersko shook his head.
"That's not acceptable. Already a Fifth Tier Transcendent, not having a proper place would be laughed at."
Sonia seemed to want to speak but was interrupted by Tersko, "I know what you want to say."
"Everworld, right?"
"Let's not mention that it belongs to the Oriental Transcendent World, on top of that, the power attribute there is incompatible with you, and the growth limit there is too low, truly lacking prospects."
Upon hearing this, Sonia sighed. She knew that although Tersko's words weren't pleasant, they were indeed facts.
"Some Fifth Tier individuals are keen on maintaining contact with the real world, like those guys from Europe and Armenia. But there are also some who couldn't care less about the real world."
"Yet, they command terrifying forces within their worlds."
"If... if you really have nowhere to go, I can try to share out..."
"Thank you for your offer." Sonia spoke up.
"We'll find a way to resolve it."
In the ordinary world, not to mention practicing, even maintaining a normal stance is a bit difficult for a normal Fifth Tier individual, always being careful not to disrupt the low-energy world.
Therefore, having an independent world of one's own is essential.
Even in the Everworld, Sonia can't make big moves, if this continues, her power will only stagnate.
Just now, Tersko extended an invitation, he was likely planning to allocate part of his space to Roger and the others.
However, doing so would also impact him, so Sonia, not waiting for him to speak, rejected without hesitation.
Knowing Tersko, once he speaks, he wouldn't allow his designated friends to refuse.
"Rest assured, we've already had some ideas." Roger chimed in.
"Haha, that's good!"
Tersko believed Roger's words, "Don't underestimate my wooden house earlier, it's not an ordinary place, it can fully carry my power. When we return, I'll take you to have a look, it might serve as some reference."
"On this issue, every Fifth Tier has their preference, there's wooden houses, caves, swamps, and some guys are even wrapped in billions of bugs."
Roger nodded, he had only glanced at it from afar earlier, he thought Tersko yearned for a mundane life, hence disguised himself and lived in an ordinary wooden house.
But now it seems those places... evidently have a deeper role for them, a thought suddenly popped into his mind.
If the assimilation function were used in Tersko's room.
What... would happen?
Just thinking about it felt intriguing.
"We've arrived."
With those words, the trio passed through a barrier into a canyon, at the end of their view stood a giant metal door.
The edges of the door seemed to blend with the surrounding space, and a statue of a white bear stood at one side of the entrance.
"Go!" Tersko commanded, the Ice Bear, like a small mountain, ran forward with heavy steps. It reached the other side of the statue, stopped, and struck a matching pose.
Crack!
Hard ice covered its body, quickly transforming into a statue.
At this moment, the metal door rippled with waves.
"Stay close to me."
A hint of chill enveloped Roger and Sonia, as Tersko stood at the door, spitting out obscure language.
"This place connects to the Summit of the Gods, and what Tersko is chanting is the Path Opening Language, besides requiring the token in his hand."
Sonia explained, and at this moment, Roger also saw Tersko raise his hand.
"Is it Shadow's Power?" Roger felt a bit strange, but the next moment, a beam of light engulfed the three of them.
It felt as if they traversed multiple space barriers and underwent several transfers, and Sonia and Tersko beside him had already closed their eyes.
But Roger could easily capture the changes in the surrounding space.
"Perhaps Tersko's speculation is not far from the truth; there seems to be a special connection among the fragmented World Fragments, and these links can converge together."
"A long time ago, they merged to form a complete world."
Swish!
Crossing the last barrier, a battered yet incredibly majestic city appeared before Roger's eyes.
It was a peak whose height was beyond description.
They were now located in the middle of the peak, and it was evident that an unknown force had snapped the entire mountain in half.
The entire lower half of the mountain pierced into the void, where perhaps the chaotic currents of time and space connected. Above this were countless buildings nestled against the mountain.
The years had left mottled marks on the mountain's body, and the majesty and desolation hit them head-on, causing even Roger to fall into a brief moment of distraction.
The sensation felt as if he was not facing a mountain or buildings but the corpse of a formidable entity.
In ancient times, this mountain may have been alive.
"Quite awe-inspiring, isn't it?" Tersko spoke.
"I felt the same way my first time here as well."
"Welcome to the Summit of the Gods, where entering this city means standing at the end of all life!"
Roger looked up, but even with his vision, he couldn't see the limit of the peak in front of him.
"This mountain..." Roger frowned.
"Seems to span across multiple worlds!"
"You can actually tell, it seems you have a strong understanding of space!" Tersko looked surprised.
"Spanning worlds?" Sonia asked, a bit puzzled.
Roger nodded.
"Although it's right before our eyes, what we are seeing is just an illusion." As he spoke, he flicked his fingers.
"It's actually easy to comprehend. If you compare a Transcendent World to sheets of white paper of varying sizes, this mountain before us pierces through all the sheets, layer by layer."
Thus, the energy Roger flicked out formed a pattern in front of Sonia, with the peak standing tall, isolating the different sheets of white paper, which represent worlds.
"He's not wrong." Tersko agreed, "We are at one of the entrances, and above this, there are entrances to other worlds."
"And the summit is where this gathering is being held." Tersko shrugged helplessly.
Sonia began to look up at that moment.
"How many entrances are above?"
"Seven."
"Is that all?" Sonia questioned further.
"Haha, of course not. Your reaction is the same as mine was initially, but anyone who has been here will know that the worlds connected to the Summit of the World have high energy levels, which is also why everyone fights for it."
"However, this isn't something you can consider now. The closer you get to the summit, the nearer you are to the original limits, but the competition is also fiercer."
"At that time, you'll need not only your strength but also to receive... recognition, or rather, only by getting its recognition can you possibly enter the top few worlds."
"And this is also his capital to rule."
"This is the Summit of the Gods, and also the Tower of the World!"
Tersko explained and then stepped forward, "Let's go up."
Sonia hurriedly followed, but Roger stood in place, looking far into the distance, seemingly observing the scenery at the peak.
"Hurry up, Roger!" Sonia urged.
Roger nodded and withdrew his gaze.
But no one knew, at that moment, in a room at the peak of the mountain, an old man suddenly opened his eyes.
