Chapter 3056: The Opportunity to Travel to Other Planes of the Holy City

————It will be a bit later~~

————

The main hall is the tallest building within the Great Temple and even the entire Holy City; it is in no way inferior to the skyscrapers of Xia Duo's hometown, yet it is even more magnificent.

A beam of Holy Light descended from the direction of the sun at the zenith, landing straight in the center of the main hall. At first, when outside, Xia Duo simply assumed it was a lighting effect.

But upon entering the main hall, he realized that the beam of Holy Light actually penetrated the architecture, landing in the center of the main hall and converging upon a statue with a blurred face.

The reason it was blurred was mainly because the statue was shrouded in Holy Light, and Xia Duo dared not look directly at it, only vaguely perceiving the other's indistinct face.

He followed behind Divine Envoy Richi to pay respects to the statue, after which Richi continued to introduce: "The history of this statue can be traced back to the very beginning of the birth of the Kingdom of Radiance; it was established by the first batch of our Lord's believers who reincarnated here."

"Fortunately, our Lord showed mercy and bestowed protection, and subsequently, more and more believers and followers gathered, which is how the current Kingdom of Radiance came to be."

So the Holy City was actually the initial starting point of the Kingdom of Radiance, and the Kingdom of Radiance was not originally established by the Lord of Radiance, but by believers who reincarnated here after death.

It is almost exactly the same as the development history of the Daxia Divine Kingdom!

The Soul-Binding Spell was proven ineffective, and there were even more punishments.

Listening to Richi speak of the history of the Kingdom of Radiance, Xia Duo felt as if he were seeing the Daxia Divine Kingdom of tomorrow, standing alone in the Outer Planes, providing shelter for souls with compatible natures.

And the Library, which should actually be called the Archives, preserves all the documents and materials of the Kingdom of Radiance; it is not just books, and only the parts open to the outside are considered a library.

……

"Then how can one obtain full Permission Level?"

Because Xia Duo provided relevant data on the Soul-Binding Spell, although it had not yet been verified and approved by the Holy City, this act itself was already enough to earn him access to the Library.

The so-called Rainbow Bridge is actually a Portal, manifesting as a rainbow that shoots straight into the sky, and no matter from which direction one looks at it, the arrangement of colors is the same.

However, Richi did not explain immediately, but instead said, "Let's go! I will take you to see the Rainbow Bridge, and you will likely be able to guess it."

"There is indeed a significant discrepancy between rumors and the actual situation. As I just said, the entire Great Temple exists simultaneously within the Multi-layered Holy City. In such a situation, do you really think there is a need for a specialized passage?"

However, wanting to commit fraud in the Holy City is not an easy matter; Radiant Priests in the Mortal Plane have Divine Magic like the Domain of Lying to distinguish lies, and the Divine Envoys of the Holy City go without saying.

It is not just that their strength is terrifying; being under the gaze of a Divine Envoy at all times is even more terrifying.

Just as Xia Shao thought Richi was about to begin his explanation, the other party actually bowed to that angel Statue: "Lord Musi, I am taking this mortal Mage to visit the Rainbow Bridge; please forgive the intrusion!"

At present, he had only obtained one Holy Seal. Unlike the Blessing Holy Seal that Divine Envoy Taide had given him before, the Holy Seal obtained this time was called the "Radiant Seal."

Fortunately, Xia Shao had never thought of causing trouble in the Kingdom of Radiance, otherwise, he would be busy thinking about how to run away right now, rather than standing calmly in place waiting for the following tour and explanation.

No wonder no one had ever been able to sneak across the Rainbow Bridge without permission! With a high-ranking Divine Envoy staring there twenty-four hours a day, where would there be an opportunity to sneak across?

Xia Shao looked at Richi curiously; he knew that since Richi had brought up this topic, he must be willing to reveal some information.

The Library and the Rainbow Bridge are not in the same area of the Great Temple, but visiting other places along the way does not take much time to get there directly.

"Your phrasing is a bit strange, but the meaning is correct. The main function of the Rainbow Bridge is not to travel through the Multi-layered Holy City, but to deploy personnel to or withdraw them from the Eternal Night Battlefield."

"Of course, it is to come into contact with other Planes of the Holy City, and the corresponding Permission Level will naturally be possessed."

Bypassing the angel Statue, one arrives at the plaza where the Rainbow Bridge is located.

After seeing the main hall, Xia Duo, under Richi's guidance, visited the Tribunal and the Library in succession; the former is the highest power organ of the Holy City, and currently, Richi works in the Holy City Management Department under the Tribunal.

"Could the Rainbow Bridge also exist simultaneously in the Multi-layered Holy City? Judging by Divine Envoy Richi's words, it seems he wants to tell me that the rumors about the Rainbow Bridge are not true?"

"Then the Rainbow Bridge is—"

Very quickly, Xia Shao, under the guidance of Divine Envoy Richi, arrived in front of a small plaza and stopped before a tall angel Statue holding a sword with both hands.

Xia Shao was startled, not because he was frightened by the scene of the statue speaking, but because he remembered that there were countless similar statues in the Holy City; if every one of them represented a high-ranking Divine Envoy, that would be a bit terrifying!

Just as Xia Shao wanted to say he didn't know, a squad of Divine Envoys full of battle scars walked out from the rainbow. Seeing Richi on the side, they only nodded without speaking, and only stopped to bow when passing the Statue of Divine Envoy Musi.

The next moment, the angel Statue actually emitted a crisp metallic sound—"Granted!"

Most Divine Envoys do not need any Divine Magic or Spells to distinguish lies and see through disguises; using Divine Magic makes them even stronger, and trying to be deceitful in front of them is very difficult.

……

Speaking of this, Divine Envoy Richi's expression turned solemn as he looked at the angel Statue not far away, "If the function of the Rainbow Bridge were merely to travel through the Multi-layered Holy City, how could it be possible for a Seraph Divine Envoy to guard it long-term!"

Although the Holy City has a record of Xia Shao's identity, if someone obtained this Holy Seal and then impersonated Xia Shao to come to the Holy City, the Holy City would not care, unless Xia Shao himself came to expose the fraud.

"Mage Xia Shao must have heard the rumors of the Multi-layered Holy City. That rumor is true; this library, or rather the entire Great Temple, exists simultaneously within the Multi-layered Holy City. Your reading Permission Level only allows you to see the books collected in the Primary Holy City."

It was not until that squad of Divine Envoys left that Xia Shao reacted, suddenly realizing and saying: "So the Rainbow Bridge is the rapid troop deployment system of the Kingdom of Radiance!"

After all, the identity corresponding to the Holy Seal is Xia Shao; a fake is ultimately a fake.

"This is the Rainbow Bridge, Mage Xia Shao. What have you thought of?"

……

Seeing that Xia Shao was interested in the Multi-layered Holy City, Richi added more fuel to the fire, "The next place we are going to visit is the Rainbow Bridge, which rumors in the Li Jie say can travel through the Multi-layered Holy City."

In Xia Shao's understanding, it is actually an identity card for residents of the Kingdom of Radiance, but he is an outsider after all, and a living person from the Material Plane, so this Holy Seal can be kept separately, similar to an unregistered identity document.

Thinking back to this time, the Daxia Territory of the Main Plane must also be developing very prosperously!
