Chapter 343 Above the Ninth Level!
"The dream world is a world that is almost vast and boundless."
The busy streets were bustling with people coming and going.
The silver-white owl led the way and said, "But the dream world also has its own center."
"That is the five towers built with the emblem of the Dream Siming family as the symbol, and the tower located in the center, built by the Dream Siming, is also called the 'Clock Tower' because of the dream clock on its top."
The conversations of the group were all controlled within a certain range and did not spread out.
"In other words, we are going to sneak directly into the Dream Siming's lair?" Ryan said with a smile.
"...That's actually true." The silver-white owl nodded: "This is why I chose to execute the plan today."
"When the Dream Rising Ceremony begins, the Dream Chief Sima and the five Sima will appear at the ceremony."
"At this time, the defenses of the five towers and the clock tower must be the weakest."
"As long as we move fast enough, even if they notice us, we can quickly evacuate after we succeed."
"However, even if the Chief Sima is not in the clock tower, the defense of the clock tower cannot be underestimated. This is why I invited Mr. Zifeng to help."
Ryan nodded and said, "After listening to you for so long, I still don't know what the 'relic' we are looking for in this operation is?"
"An item? Or something else?"
Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment appeared in the eyes of the silver-white owl: "In fact, we are not sure."
"When the train conductor entrusted us with this matter, he only said the word 'relic'."
"Of course, after my exploration, I roughly guessed that it should be something."
"As for what it is, we will know it after approaching a certain range."
Ryan was also a little speechless.
He felt that he was sometimes quite "reckless", but he didn't expect that these people in the wireless train group were more "reckless" than him.
But this is more interesting, isn't it...
After warming up with [Gray Squirrel] before, Ryan had a relatively accurate positioning of his own strength.
After upgrading again, it is hard to say whether he can match the peak ninth level, but fighting the initial ninth level is like playing.
Of course, because of the existence of the "World Clothes", although he was weak when he first entered the ninth level, he could still withstand one or two of his attacks.
If five Sima jumped out as shields when he was dealing with the chief Sima, it would be quite disgusting.
Therefore, one of his goals when entering the dream world this time was to test first to see what kind of combat power a Sima like [Gray Mouse] could exert in a special place like the dream world.
It would be best to deal with a few Sima first.
Even if the travel clone has reached the current level, defeating the ninth-level existence can still increase a lot of experience points.
The silver-white owl on the side naturally didn't know what Ryan was thinking. Seeing that Ryan stopped talking, he took it as his acquiescence and led the way seriously.
"There is still about an hour and a half before the Dream Rising Ceremony begins."
"And the moment the ceremony begins is when we are transmitted to the clock tower."
The silver-white owl seemed to have explored the way in advance and was quite familiar with this place. After a while, the group came to a super-giant tower that was 10,000 meters high.
That is to say, in the dream world, such a magnificent building can appear.
In reality, it is difficult to find materials that can bear such a load. Even if there are materials, it is not worth the loss to use them to build houses.
A layer of faint silver light surrounded Ryan and the other four people, making it impossible for outside inspectors to discover their existence.
During the waiting time, April said curiously: "Uncle Eagle, by the way, have you seen this first passenger?"
"No." The silver-white owl shook his head: "I just boarded the train a few years earlier than you, and the first passenger has been there for a thousand years."
"Is that so." April suddenly realized.
"By the way, what does your infinite train group do?" Ryan also participated in the conversation when he had nothing to do.
As for the first passenger, he said that he was not interested, which was a lie.
After all, this person is likely to be his "fellow villager".
"How should I put it." The silver-white owl pondered for a moment and said: "Mr. Zifeng, do you know the 'spiritual god'?"
Ryan shook his head.
This is the first time he has heard of this title.
Seeing this, the silver-white owl did not keep the secret and said bluntly: "The long river of spirituality runs through thousands of worlds."
"How long has it existed, no one knows."
"And in the distant years, at that time, there was no unfallen world on the long river of spirituality, but there was a shining 'sun'."
"Each shining sun is a supreme existence. If converted into a career ladder, you can understand it as above the ninth level."
"They have a form, but in essence, they are no longer living beings, but have become a symbol of a certain rule and authority."
"And such existence is respected by people as spiritual gods."
Ryan's heart was shaken.
This was the first time he heard about the existence of those above the ninth level.
No.
Maybe not the first time.
Ryan remembered the word "master" he had shouted when he fought against the Abyss Lord·Dead Bones in the world of gods.
It should be unlikely that the ninth-level Abyss Lord·Dead Bones could be so respected by the same level.
In other words
Is the status of the Lord of the Abyss equivalent to that of a spiritual god?
"I boast that I have been to several worlds, and my knowledge is not short-sighted, but why have I never seen or felt the traces of spiritual gods?"
After the shock, Ryan took the opportunity to ask his question.
This "Uncle Eagle" from Infinite Train Group knows more secret information than he imagined.
What is it, or rather, his identity?
"It's normal that I haven't heard of it." The silver-white owl said with emotion: "Because after thousands of years of a great war that I don't know whether it existed, all the spiritual gods fell."
"The Spiritual God has fallen?"
Will someone above the ninth level also fall?
Ryan was surprised inside.
"Yes, they all fell without exception." The words of the silver-white owl were extremely certain: "The existence of the spiritual god is a symbol of rules and the end of life."
"If they exist, the living creatures themselves will respond."
"Until now, in the thousands of worlds that the spiritual river runs through, no 'spiritual god' has been born."
Ryan frowned: "I heard that there are several unfallen worlds suspended above the spiritual river."
"The scale of these non-falling worlds is far greater than that of the big world. Could it be that the strongest people in these non-falling worlds have not reached the level of 'spiritual gods'?"
"Indeed not." The silver-white owl shook his head: "The three masters of the unfallen world are indeed very strong. They stand at the top of the spiritual river, but they have not yet reached the realm of 'spiritual gods'."
"Perhaps, after the battle thousands of years ago, the road between the ninth and tenth levels was completely cut off."
"Otherwise, with the unparalleled talents of those three people, how could they stop before the Spiritual God?"
Ryan was silent.
In all the spiritual worlds, there is no "spiritual god"...
But on the other side of the abyss, it seems that the "Master" has appeared!
No wonder, no wonder.
Suddenly, it dawned on Ryan.
No wonder the abyss is eroding the spiritual world more and more intensely, but the spiritual world is unable to form a good resistance.
Including not falling into the world, but also just hanging high, choosing to preserve oneself, regardless of the life and death of other small worlds and the big world.
It’s not that they don’t want to, but there is nothing they can do!
Without the "Spiritual God" to fight against the "Lord of the Abyss", no matter how hard you fight, there will only be a failure in the end.
After thinking about this, Ryan's heart became extremely heavy.
The erosion of the abyss in so many worlds, including the world where his body is located, is not just an accident.
As time goes by, the erosion of the spiritual world by the abyss will only intensify.
Until, all the worlds are eroded, and the abyss covers the spiritual river.
"call……"
Taking a deep breath, Ryan shook his head.
It’s useless to think too much. What should happen has already happened.
Now he only needs to do one thing.
That is to become as powerful as possible before the abyss drowns everything.
During the chat, time gradually passed, and soon, the pointer pointed to the number nine.
"Boom——"
On the bell tower, the bells sounded melodiously, and at the same time, the other five towers emitted bright light.
This represents the beginning of the second grand event held once every five hundred years since the establishment of the Mechanical Fantasy Star.
The main venue of the Dream Ceremony is dozens of kilometers away from the clock tower and five towers.
This also means that once something happens, the Chief Commander of Dreams and the five commanders will not be able to arrive at the scene immediately.
"Now, let's go!"
The silver-white owl perked up and waved its wings, signaling for Ryan and others to follow.
Along the way, the strict guards could not detect their presence.
The Silver Owl's ability is by no means as simple as the "door" it calls.
In other words, "door" is just one of its abilities.
Outside the tower, the silver-white owl's eyes shone brightly, and black threads spread from its body. In a very short period of time, a door was built into the bell tower.
And this move did not even trigger the alarm of the clock tower's defense mechanism.
"Walk!"
The silver owl took the lead, and three people and one owl rushed directly into the bell tower.
"I feel it!" Miss April suddenly let out a low cry: "There seems to be something calling me in the distance above my head."
"I feel it too." Zero said from the side.
"That should be the 'legacy' of the original passengers. Our previous speculation was correct." The silver-white owl looked excited.
"Walk!"
The black lines in its eyes filled the air again, forming a "door" leading to the top of the tower.
Everyone entered it.
The top floor of the bell tower is a dome supported by thick stone pillars around it. In the center, a huge copper bell hangs.
The first time they arrived here, the silver-white owl, April and Zero all turned their gazes behind the bronze bell at the same time.
There, there was a figure sitting on an armchair with his back to them.
"He is the 'remnant' of the final passenger?"
This thought came to Ryan's mind.
On the other hand, April, whose eyes lit up, was ready to run over.
But before she could take action, the silver-white owl was already standing in front of her, its eyes extremely serious.
"Tap tap, tap tap..."
Crisp applause suddenly sounded.
Behind the huge bronze bell, a figure floated out.
He wears a green snake mask, has a thin and slender figure, and a pair of eyes that give people an extremely cold feeling.
"I didn't expect that a mouse actually came."
"Hey, hey, hey, [Green Snake], you can scold them, but why are you talking about rats?" A figure wearing a gray rat mask appeared beside him.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you, that guy with a big sword on his back is not simple."
"Oh, he was the one who blew up your body?" [Green Snake] laughed: "It doesn't matter, it's not surprising that you, a shame of the ninth level, lost."
"You!" [Gray Rat] was angry, but after a while, it was difficult to refute.
He did use special means to advance to the ninth level, which also led to his weaker combat power among the ninth level.
Although he didn't become a "shame of the ninth level", he was indeed the weakest among the five dream deities.
"This is a bit troublesome." The silver-white owl looked solemn.
It thought that the dream deity might leave behind powerful guards, but it didn't expect that at such a grand event as the Dream Rising Ceremony, the dream deity actually left two deities here to guard.
What exactly was the "remaining" of the first passengers that was worth his strict defense?
In addition, he chose to leave two Si Ming guards, indicating that the chief Si Ming might have known about his arrival.
No!
The silver-white owl's eyes changed.
It remembered the invitation letter received by the Infinite Train Group.
Perhaps this invitation letter was sent by the chief Si Ming himself?
"Haha, I won't talk too much."
"Will you surrender, or wait for me to beat you one by one before admitting defeat?"
[Green Snake] stepped forward with full aura.
The terrifying pressure made the silver-white owl's body sink, and April and Zero, who were only at the seventh level, were even paler.
This was under the protection of the silver-white owl.
If the two women were allowed to bear the pressure of the ninth level alone, they would explode and die in an instant.
"Interesting." [Green Snake]'s eyes lingered on the silver-white owl for a moment: "Mr. White Eagle of the Infinite Train Group."
"If you come to visit properly, my Mechanical Festival Star will welcome you politely."
"What a pity, you chose this way now."
The silver-white owl ignored [Green Snake], but looked at the young man beside him, and asked worriedly: "Can you handle it? If not, we will retreat."
"It should be, it's not a big problem."
Ryan smiled, raised his hand, and grasped the hilt of the greatsword behind him.
In an instant, the pressure that enveloped this place was shattered.
[Green Snake]'s eyes changed slightly.
He felt something different: "You, Gray Rat, may be right this time."
"This guy is a monster."
The Gray Rat walked to the side of the Green Snake and walked with Him.
Although they met and belittled each other in words, when they met the enemy, they were both the dream god, so they should help each other.
Ryan pulled out the rusty greatsword behind him little by little, and the corners of his mouth grinned with excitement.
"It's okay, you can come together."
"It's a good opportunity for me to experience the beauty of dreams!"
