Lin Yi continued to delve deeper.
This cave was larger than Lin Yi had imagined.
Lin Yi also felt increasingly warm.
Reaching the depths of the cave, his eyes suddenly brightened.
Rolling heat waves assaulted him!
Lin Yi saw a vast pool of magma.
Above the magma pool, there was a massive bronze cauldron spanning several kilometers.
Countless bones of desolate gods were scattered around the cauldron.
Lin Yi floated into the air, looking into the cauldron.
In the cauldron, numerous desolate god bones had actually been simmered into a kind of bluish-gray material.
Passing over the great cauldron.
Lin Yi saw those already processed bluish-gray materials similarly piled into mountains.
It seems these people hunt desolate gods, on one hand to forge weapons from the bones, on the other hand to use their bones to create some material.
And what are these materials used to build?
With this question in mind, Lin Yi reached the end of the cave.
Everything came into view.
He arrived at the cave's rear opening.
Beyond the mountain, there was a boundless desert of yellow sand.
And Lin Yi was at the horizon's end.
He saw the answer to his question.
It was a gate.
A gigantic bluish-gray gate, tens of thousands of meters wide and hundreds of thousands of meters high!
The enormous primordial structure stood at the world's end.
Lin Yi could only feel an unprecedented shock enveloping him.
This is the answer!
These ancient humans hunt desolate gods.
Solely to create a heavenly gate!
This wall is the most exaggerated human construction Lin Yi has ever seen.
In front of it, other miracles pale in comparison.
But why?
Why build this gate?
And what's behind the gate?
Lin Yi was already somewhat impatient.
Light wings spread behind him, Light Wing Blessing at light stage eight!
Then, he swiftly rose into the air, heading towards the enormous gate at the horizon's end.
However, a few minutes later.
Lin Yi received an alert within the Sky Tower.
[You have entered the boundary of this layer, unable to proceed further!]
[Please enter the next layer soon!]
Lin Yi looked at the gigantic heavenly gate at the horizon's end, seeming no closer at all, and temporarily gave up.
But Lin Yi was certain that as long as he continued deeper to the tower's base.
He would definitely be able to reach the primordial heavenly gate in front.
Lin Yi's figure disappeared.
Choosing to enter the next layer.
The monsters on the fifth level had already been cleared by the explosion from Lin Yi's Wind God's Throne earlier.
The entire layer had no monsters.
But Lin Yi immediately noticed that the enormous heavenly gate far in the distance at the horizon's end was a bit closer.
Without halting, he entered the next layer.
Surely with constant advance.
Lin Yi found himself getting increasingly closer to the primordial heavenly gate.
Besides.
Signs of houses and settlements appeared on the ground.
The traces of smelting desolate god bones also increased.
Until entering the second layer.
Lin Yi's vision went dark.
Once again subdued by the majestic grandeur of the primordial heavenly gate.
Now, he was about ten thousand miles away from the heavenly gate.
But the heavenly gate, towering, already shadowed the sky's light.
Except for the sky above, everything in sight was occupied by the heavenly gate.
Approaching closer, Lin Yi discovered more details.
This heavenly gate, not only high, the thickness should be extremely exaggerated too.
Lin Yi took a deep breath.
This was already the second layer.
Ahead was the journey's endpoint in this climb up the tower.
Entering the first layer.
Vision went dark.
Opening his eyes again, a spectacular scene that left Lin Yi shell-shocked appeared before him.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
The first sight was naturally the enormous primordial heavenly gate.
At this moment, Lin Yi stood close to the gate.
Only a few kilometers apart.
On the gate, one could see huge holes deep as hundreds to thousands of meters.
Lin Yi even saw traces of repairs.
Under the heavenly gate, stood gigantic desolate gods, each a hundred meters tall.
These desolate gods had chains around their necks and feet.
Only wielding war hammers, pounding on equally giant war drums.
The thunderous drum sound echoed beside Lin Yi's ears.
Lin Yi felt his entire bloodstream heated to boiling point.
Looking up, countless god-patterned warriors had voices of battle cries soaring into the heavens.
They stood in formation in front of the heavenly gate, weapons sharp, divine patterns gleaming brightly.
Lin Yi glanced at the god-patterns engraved on those at the front.
That look made Lin Yi shiver.
People with two god-patterns filled the sky!
There were also quite a few with three god-patterns!
As for those strong with four or five engraved god-patterns, their aura and pressure left Lin Yi no choice but to treat them seriously.
It seems the gun-wielding strong man encountered on the seventh layer was merely a lower-tier weakling of this age...
His gaze passed over the rough estimation of tens of thousands of god-patterned warriors, and what he saw left Lin Yi astonished once more.
"Roar—"
An ethereal dragon's roar emanated from a dragon flying in the air.
With it, eight other dragons of varied colors and forms raced together.
Behind the nine true dragons, a chariot flying in the sky was dragged.
On either side of the chariot, large red and yellow banners hung.
In the center of the chariot stood a person of regal posture, unparalleled charm.
Simultaneously, below also stood a massive battle formation of people wielding various weapons, their divine patterns shimmering brightly.
The fierce wind howled, banners fluttered.
The written characters on the banner were ancient symbols.
Lin Yi couldn't understand.
But he knew that person should be the true emperor of the entire ancient human race!
While thinking, Lin Yi saw that person on the Nine Dragon Chariot actually looking towards him.
That gaze seemed to penetrate through billions of years.
Completely seeing through him.
"Future man, tell me, why have you come here."
The emperor on the Nine Dragon Chariot spoke softly.
But heard in Lin Yi's ears like a grand bell.
At that moment, Lin Yi's thoughts raced, considering many answers.
Ultimately, he chose the simplest one.
In front of such a figure, a lie might instead provoke him.
"For power."
"For legacy."
Lin Yi was of course here for the martial soul.
The second phrase, for legacy, naturally admitted his desire for the god-pattern system on these ancient humans.
Wishing to gain that legacy.
"If you want it, then come forth."
"As long as you can come within a hundred yards of me, you pass."
Along with his words came.
The alert of this layer.
[You have entered the 1st layer!]
[Current Reminiscence: Grand Ancient Primordial Times]
[Layer Target: Enter within 100 yards of ??]
[Layer Monster: Ancient Divine Rune Human Race Elite, over 100,000]
"Stop him!"
"A mere child, how can he be worthy of meeting our race's supreme emperor!"
"Go back to your world!"
Instantly, Lin Yi felt all those already arrayed god-patterned warriors angered by his actions.
The surfacing killing intent of a hundred thousand overwhelmed Lin Yi, feeling a bit breathless.
Regarding these god-patterned elites' taunts, Lin Yi, in fact, felt relieved instead.
The final test was breaking through this elite blockade, not directly facing a legendary figure like the primordial human emperor.
This was winnable.
