Chapter 384

Calm your thoughts, calm your thoughts... Klein kept muttering, using this method to concentrate his attention.

"Mr. World is actually reminding himself in such a way like a child, it's a bit cute..."

"Ah... no! I didn't think that!" Miss Justice's face turned awkward and flushed red, losing her composure as a lady.

"Hahaha!" Leonard laughed until he was numb.

"Hahaha!" Chumen was also laughing.

Such a classic scene naturally had to be screenshotted.

"You knew this would happen, and you were happy to see it?" Adam asked from the side.

"I remember you haven't been to this hall." Adam remembered something else.

"... Aren't you tired of being a 'Spectator' every day?" Chumen's laughter stopped abruptly, and he looked at Adam's probing gaze, speechless.

"This is my nature," Adam replied, though he did not press further and instead looked at the murals in the hall.

The three of them, Klein included, subconsciously felt fear, yet they couldn't help but approach, finally seeing a downward, pitch-black passage there.

Above that gate, countless indescribable symbols were densely packed, like chains extending to the back, as if sealing something, intuitively giving people a sense of heaviness and mystery.

Klein had never experienced danger of this magnitude; with just a thought, he expanded his own spirit body, wrapping both "Justice" and "The Star" within it, and detached from this world.

"The murals here..."

At this moment, Klein, whose inner thoughts had been called out, was somewhat ashamed and angry, but could only forcibly calm his thoughts with the help of his own Spirituality.

Leonard's inner thoughts, however, kept flying, and it took some effort for him to stop them.

Thousands of years ago, a true Ancient God had been entrenched here, eyes looking toward today, thousands of years later.

And it was also at this time that they discovered the throne of the "Dragon of Imagination" was a dark color that was out of place with the Honesty Hall.

All three couldn't help but look at the passage, seeing a pair of ancient Bronze Gates.

Thump!

Klein heard his own heartbeat, his Spirituality screamed violently, rioting in an unprecedented manner.

"Hurry up, we are going in." Klein stiffly brushed past the scene of his embarrassment, gave a reminder, and walked forward on his own.

Danger!

Klein had clearly seen the contents of the travelogue, starting from the Giants of the Second Epoch, passing through Elves, Ascetics, Nobles, Soldiers, and others, but all the stories came to an abrupt end after he obtained the travelogue.

"Fortunately, the great power of the 'Dragon of Imagination' also has its limits..." Klein felt a sense of relief for no reason.

Afterward, they walked toward the "throne" of the Ancient God in the deepest part.

"I can't see anything, if only there were light..." Miss Justice's thought was realized, and pure light illuminated that passage.

Likewise, "Justice" and "The Star" also had stiff bodies and were unable to move, feeling as if their own spirit bodies were developing a will and betraying them.

"Mm-hmm!" Justice's face was slightly rosy, but she quickly adjusted herself thanks to the strong control a "Dream Walker" has over their own emotions.

And in the deep darkness they did not see, an eye opened, the pupil deep black and covered with faint blue cracks, and subsequently, one after another, identical eyes appeared.

"It really is Him." Chumen and Adam stood outside the Bronze Gate.

Adam looked at the darkness under the Bronze Gate with a slightly complex expression.

The "Him" here was no longer the "Dragon of Imagination," but the will of "God" from the "Chaos Sea."

This was a backup plan the "Dragon of Imagination" left for itself in the Second Epoch, but in the following epochs, the landscape of Earth changed again and again, and this backup had already been replaced by the higher-level "God."

"I didn't experience that period of time, so what happened back then?" Chumen looked at Adam.

"At that time, I had also just walked out from underground and had not yet established the Creator's Divine Kingdom; I only knew that these Ancient Gods were going mad, preparing to resolve the Corruption underground." Adam frowned as he looked at the Bronze Gate, then told Chumen everything about the early Second Epoch.

That was probably not long after the darkness and ignorance faded, when the Ancient God races began to rule the entire world.

The Ancient God races at that time had already begun to come into contact with the underground Corruption and had made certain responses.

Among them, as far as Chumen knew, the "Dragon of Imagination" had truly taken action.

"Angerweed and the Dragon Race were the most deeply involved in the exploration of the underground; besides wanting to resolve the Corruption, the 'Dragon of Imagination' also wanted to control the 'Chaos Sea'."

"But the result was not very good." Chumen also knew the result; all races had the same outcome, and in the end, they could only seal those leaking points of Corruption.

Adam nodded slightly, "Angerweed had truly entered the underground and seen a certain shadow left by Him."

"'God's Shadow'?" Chumen thought of the final battle of the Second Epoch, where Angerweed and the Ancient Sun God fought in the Collective Subconscious Ocean, during which Angerweed had once manifested the shadow of "God."

"Angerweed was corrupted and had this place." Adam picked up the silver crucifix and walked toward the Bronze Gate.

Click, click!

The Bronze Gate slowly swung open, revealing the deep darkness within.

Chumen also followed into the Bronze Gate.

The feeling here was very strange; the further one traveled inside, the more one could feel that they were moving underground, heading toward a deeper place.

And this place was essentially the Collective Subconscious Sea.

So they arrived at the deepest part of the Collective Subconscious Ocean.

Analogous to the Abyss of the Phantom Realm, this was the condensation of the darkest and most terrifying thoughts in this book.

Chumen and Adam had calm expressions, but in reality, a will with a level comparable to the universe itself had already descended upon them.

That will silently watched their progress as they arrived at the very bottom of the Collective Subconscious Ocean.

Here was a gray-dark ocean.

The deep, dark seawater seemed to contain all colors, blooming at the edge of this space, possessing a beauty that transcended cognition.

The aura on Chumen's body clashed with this seawater involuntarily, and wisps of Dream Phosphor radiated out, constructing a dream space completely isolated from the outside world in this dim ocean.

"Fake." Chumen took one look at this dim seawater and made a judgment.

This was very similar to the real Chaos Sea hidden underground, but it was fake after all; its essence was the materialization of the "Dragon of Imagination's" shadows and fears regarding the underground.

It was just that these things had merged with the Corruption from the Chaos Sea, becoming something capable of carrying the will of "God."

"If it were real, how would you dare to appear before me?" A voice other than Chumen and Adam's rang out in this eerie space.
