Chapter 1663 - 1001: Bronze Restored
In the small secret chamber, a large Bronze Gate silently opened.An ancient aura not of this world spread out like a gust blowing away thick dust.
Baili An smelled the heavy sense of history.
His Divine Sense penetrated deeper through the crack of the half-open door.
Baili An once again felt the formidable and wondrous power of the six Divine Talismans; the spiritual power needed to open the Bronze Gate was immense.
Yet after opening the Bronze Gate, the six maps within the ignited Fanghai World extinguished only two.
The remaining spiritual power was enough to let him traverse the world beyond the gate, and personify Divine Thought with a spiritual power avatar.
As he entered the world beyond the gate, first to meet his eyes was the gigantic bronze tree stretching between heaven and earth, and beneath that giant tree...
The floating waves of the Azure Sea sang, white whales surfacing.
During the Bronze Gate incident, Ning Feiyan, while still an enemy, had used the Boundary Sea Rain Technique and Nine Nethers Witch Worm to deeply corrode the bronze tree.
This tree nearly collapsed into the sea, almost causing a catastrophe.
But as time passed, the massive tree that tilted and collapsed, nearly half submerged in the world’s sea, had thus far righted itself.
The tree peak points obliquely towards the sky, resembling a bronze ladder to heaven.
Dozens of divine lights converged from the horizon, led by Xuaxu, several Ancient Gods arrived in body.
As primordial deities inside the Bronze Gate, they were especially familiar with Baili An’s presence.
Almost at the moment Baili An’s Divine Thought entered the Bronze Gate world, they arrived in body.
"We greet the Master!"
"We greet the Master!"
Xuaxu and others had an uncontrollable look of joy and anticipation on their faces, since the closing of the Bronze Gate, this was Baili An’s first divine arrival to the Bronze world.
They naturally understood the difficulty in opening the Bronze Gate, and the fact that he could open it again.
Even if it was just a wisp of Divine Thought, without his true form arriving, it was still a miracle.
It showed that the Master’s power had greatly advanced, beyond what it once was.
Baili An nodded in salutation, but couldn’t help but glance at the bronze tree above the sea.
He sighed softly, "Four years ago when I left, the bronze tree was nearly withered and sunk into the sea. It is remarkable now; you all have truly worked hard."
The bronze tree is the pillar between heaven and earth in the bronze world; if it falls into the sea, the heavens and sea collapse, the Bronze Gate would cease to exist.
Xuaxu was stunned momentarily, then laughed, "The Master misunderstood, our power alone cannot move the foundation of the bronze world tree.
The bronze tree’s decay and rebirth are due to the Master’s aura."
Baili An’s expression was confused.
Xuaxu continued explaining, "Since the day the Master became the Bronze Lord, everything inside the Bronze Gate is closely connected to the Master’s aura.
From three years ago, the Bronze Gate sank into boundless darkness, and we were unable to continue.
It was anticipated that the Master was experiencing a tremendous death crisis in the Mortal World, and thus the bronze tree sank to the bottom of the ten thousand Abyss Sea.
Until recently, the Bronze world showed signs of returning light, the great darkness of the Cambrian receded, and we woke one after another, even the bronze tree planted itself upright."
Hearing this, Baili An was shocked, not expecting his life and death to directly affect the fate of the Bronze Gate.
He looked up at the sky, and indeed the darkness that once covered this world was denser than when he first observed it at the Bronze Gate.
The light power in this world is gradually unable to resist the darkness converging from all directions.
The areas where these Ancient Gods’ remnants live are much narrower.
Even the sun in the sky seemed like a pale sun in winter, lacking vigor.
Baili An had not thought that life inside the Bronze Gate world was so difficult, a moment of guilt burdened his heart.
Since he awoke, the bronze tree rose, but the world within the Bronze Gate still appeared bleak.
Xuaxu said the Bronze Gate world was intimately connected to his aura...
Since he merged with the black bones of the Venerable Immortal, the Karma Barriers were hard to dispel; perhaps this indirectly impacted this world.
Baili An remained silent, his spiritual power unfolded like seabed water.
His heart followed as he raised his palm lightly.
An immense pressure of heaven and earth rested upon his palm.
The bronze world’s heavens were open wide, the sky no longer heavy and oppressive, the clouds scattered and dispersed.
Under his spiritual thought control, the bronze tree bit by bit was righted and returned to position.
Under the shocked gaze of Xuaxu and others, Baili An flicked his sleeve lightly, the sky, once under a black haze, suddenly cleared.
That thought was like the wind scattering thick fog, exposing the corner of the world shrouded in darkness.
Beneath that world, Ancient Gods and Dao Demons lay asleep, suspended and frozen between heaven and earth.
As the dark clouds dispersed, the brilliance of the sun suddenly brightened, the frozen bodies of the Ancient Gods and Dao Demons melted into golden liquid, flowing into the sea.
The ice-encased slumbering Ancient Gods and Dao Demons awoke in succession, their eyes reflecting the daze of first awakening, and seeing each other’s faces before any enmity could arise, they sensed Baili An’s presence.
In the bronze world, they dared not act recklessly, suppressing the battle intent accumulated over millennia, looking upon Baili An with respect.
Once Baili An ’named’ them one by one, that respectful gaze turned thoroughly into submission.
Roughly tallying through the past and present, compared to the first time when Baili An named two Ancient Gods, today twelve were named in total.
