Chapter 178: Stepping on the Clouds

readx;? Ian didn't know how many times he had been shocked by the girl beside him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Divine Fire was naturally the most terrifying flame in the world, and he had already guessed what the girl wanted to do at that time.

She wanted to cut off the godhead and start a divine fire. Sacrifice yourself and burn the scourge!

"You ...... later Burned Morbius?"

Ian asked in an uncertain tone. He instinctively felt that the godhead could not be cut so easily, and the natural disaster would not be killed so easily, and the girl next to him was even more here, not burned to ashes four years ago.

"Nope. Fei'er replied in an inexplicable tone, "Things turned out differently than I imagined. ”

"Because the Godhead has been staying in my body, it has gradually partially merged with my body, becoming an existence between the unreal and the real. Instead of damaging it, my sword intent stabbed it with ease, taking my own consciousness with me. ”

"In there, I saw a wonderful world. ”

"World?" Ian's eyes widened slightly.

Is there a world in Godhead?

"Well, an illusory world. ”

The girl's eyes were misty.

"In that world, I emerged from the murky bottom of the sea. Then he walked out of the sea and stepped on a vast field. I walked through the wilderness, and in the middle of the land I saw a majestic snow-capped mountain. I headed in the direction of the snow-capped mountain, and at the foot of the mountain I saw a path that circled upward. There were seventy-seven thousand seven hundred and seventy-seven steps on the path, and when I stepped through all these steps and reached the top of the mountain, I saw there a huge silver-white gate that connected the heavens and the earth and depicted countless mysterious patterns......"

"In that moment, I knew what it was. The girl paused slightly, and then exclaimed, "That is the Gate of the Sage." ”

Then I pushed the door open. And just as I was about to walk through the door, I had to stop because of the sight behind the door. ”

"What do you see?" Ian muttered. All mortal powerhouses eventually stop at the Gate of the Sage, so there are too many people who want to know the path behind the Gate. It symbolizes the possibility of mortals going further, and symbolizes the hope that mortals can take control of their own destiny.

This time, however, Phil was silent for a long time, and after a long silence, she finally told Ian the desperate truth.

"Cliffs. ”

"Behind the door is a cliff, and anyone who tries to step forward will fall off the cliff. Below the cliff is a bottomless abyss, and on the other side of the cliff, there is nothing in the white expanse. ”

"How is this possible?" said Ian, in disbelief, unable to accept the fact that behind the Sage's Gate was a cliff, almost a sign of ......

"This is the end of the path of mortals. ”

The girl spoke Ian's heart in her hoarse voice: "The Sage is the end of mortals. ”

"Is there really no way ahead?"

Ian couldn't imagine anything like this in this world. Even the miracle of the mind has appeared, but the path of mortals must stop there. This almost means that it is impossible for mortals to catch up with the capable at all.

The most terrible thing in the world is not the gap between oneself and others, but the fact that there is no way to bridge the gap when you know that there is a gap.

Others are still able to move on, but they have come to the end and have no way to go.

What a hopelessness it is.

"At that point, I thought there was no way out. The girl let out a noncommittal sigh: "Because man is a creature that needs to have a goal to be able to move forward, but there is a bottomless abyss under his feet, and there is a white mist in front of him, and those who have lost their goal naturally have no way forward." ”

"But...... In fact, the goal exists. It's just that even if they know the goal, mortals don't know how to get there. ”

"The goal exists?"

"Hmm" The girl opened her eyes and looked at the crystal lamp above her head, "It's not in front of us, it's on our heads." ”

"Almost everyone who walked to the door did not realize that what we expected on the other side was the clouds floating above our heads. ”

"Clouds. Ian's eyes lit up inexplicably, and he vaguely guessed something. It's just that this inspiration is unpredictable and flickering, and he can't pronounce it.

"Yes, if it weren't for the Godhead in me, if it hadn't told me in the dark that I should go in this direction, then I wouldn't have discovered this secret. Phil let out an emotional sigh before confiding in Ian the secret he was seeking.

"This is where the path of mortals ends, but the path of the gods begins here. ”

"I turned my sword into a staircase and walked up to the clouds. ”

"I felt what kind of power I would get when I walked up to the clouds. However, this path is not easy to follow, because my sword intent is not enough to support me to reach the end, and even so, I can only walk half of it. So in the end, it was the Godhead within me who paved the way for me with fire. ”

"I don't know what the price of stepping on the divine fire is to move forward, I just know that I really need the power to protect everything, and I don't want to give up halfway, I don't want to lose the opportunity to get that power. So I stepped into the flames and eventually into the clouds. ”

"And because of that, you lost all your expressions, didn't you?" asked Ian.

"Hmm. The girl admitted with great indifference, as if losing all her expression was just a trivial matter.

Ian frowned.

He knew that in addition to losing her expression, the girl's lifespan had actually been reduced. And her hoarse voice that does not match her age is afraid that it is also the traces left at that time.

This is by no means a trivial price.

She made a very great sacrifice.

Moreover, the strongest person who has achieved it with external force is probably the same as him, a sword master who has been "smuggled into", that is, he cannot have complete power, and when he uses his power, he is afraid that he will have to pay an additional price.

Sure enough, Phil's next sentence confirmed Ian's suspicions.

"With the strength of the Strongest, I barely repelled Morbius. But thanks to external forces, after that, I fell from the clouds again. ”

"Fall?" Ian was stunned.

"Because I didn't rely on my true strength to step on the clouds, I would fall from this realm after using the power of the strongest. Phil turned her head and looked at Ian, "And the after-effects after that are what I am now." (To be continued.) )
