“The person the god feels most guilty for?”
“That’s right!”
Atlas explained calmly.
“Truthfully, not only did I hope for you to reach the 36th floor, I also pray you defeat the god of wisdom.”
“Why would you want that? Also, why was I brought here by Lust?”
Fike asked, getting more confused by the second.
“I’ll answer your questions slowly.”
Atlas said.
“Regarding why you arrived here, I think it’s because Lust simply saw me as another Exotic Beast.”
“Haven’t you seen each other before?”
“No, we haven’t.”
Atlas went on to explain.
“The seven souls of the god of wisdom each believe that they are the true form, and they don’t know each other at all.
“I was sealed here by the god of wisdom before he was defeated by the god of creation, Ogallas.
“In order to become stronger, the god of wisdom sealed every positive emotion in his heart, leaving only the evil ones.
“After he did this, ridding herself of pure emotions, the evil elements in his body surged wildly.
“I think Lust mistook me for one of her kind, one of the evil ones, before she was wiped out. She intended on using my hands to kill you.”
Hearing this, Fike sighed in relief.
“I didn’t expect that so many things would have happened to you in the past. I didn’t expect the evil god to have had a kind side, either.”
Atlas continued.
“Human, you are very lucky indeed. You had been almost about to die when the soul of lust was reduced to ashes.”
Fike asked again.
“Why are there black-robed people here? What do they do?”
Atlas answered.
“Those people are from an organization called the Evil God’s Headquarters. They are the most loyal followers of the god of wisdom.
“Their goal is to resurrect him.”
Fike asked, “Then why are they here?”
“I think there were two reasons for them to come here.
“First, they sensed your arrival, and wanted to stop you from coming to me.
“Second, they wanted to prevent you from finding the Time Mirror.”
“Time Mirror?”
“That’s right, the Time Mirror. This is a divine artifact created by the god of wisdom before he was corrupted into the evil god.
“The Time Mirror can slow down the flow of time in the surrounding area, and it also has another extremely powerful effect.”
“What’s that?”
Fike looked at Atlas as he asked.
“That is, it can bring you back to the past, back to the primordial era, or even earlier!”
Hearing this, Fike pondered.
“So if I used the time mirror to travel back to the primordial era, killing the evil god, can I stop his revival now?”
Atlas smiled as he replied.
“Of course not. What you would be doing if you went through the Time Mirror is only exploring a parallel space-time of the past.
“The things that happen in every parallel space-time must remain the same.
“You cannot change anything that was supposed to happen. If you violate this rule, then you will also disappear. Do you understand?”
Fike completely understood the implications, so he continued.
“If I can’t change anything, then why are the people from the Evil God’s Headquarters so afraid that I will get the Time Mirror?”
Atlas laughed.
“Although you cannot change the past, you can change the present by obtaining knowledge from the past!”
Fike immediately understood what he was implying.
Atlas continued.
“You could use the Time Mirror to travel back to the primordial era, and find the original god before the god of wisdom turned into the evil god. You may be able to find the location of the six divine pillars that would be used to seal the evil god.
“This way, after returning to the present, you will know where to look for them to restore the seal once again.”
Fike looked at Atlas.
“How much time do I have to complete this task?”
Atlas smiled as he replied.
“In the real world, you only have seven days from now, but after transmigrating to the primordial era in the Time Mirror, you will have seven years to complete your task!”
“Seven years? That long?”
Fike sighed.
“Human, don’t assume that seven years is a long time. If you don’t return to the present within those seven years, then you will forever remain in the primordial era.”
Atlas warned.
“Then before that, do I need to make any preparations?”
Fike asked again.
“There’s no need for any preparations. In a while, I will pass you the Time Mirror. I wish you the best of luck in finding the original god as soon as possible.
“Before that, though, you’d better contact your companions!”
Atlas noted.
Fike nodded and placed the Infinite Ring on his forehead as he spoke in his spiritual world.
“Lan XI, Lan Xi, can you hear me?”
On Lan Xi’s side, she was ecstatic as she heard Fike’s voice in her mind.
“Fike!” She replied quickly.
“Fike! I can hear you. Are you okay? Where are you now?”
“I’m on the 36th floor of the tower. I’ve already met the Demon Overlord.”
“What? It didn’t hurt you, right? Are you okay now…”
Fike interrupted immediately through her incoherent ramblings.
“Don’t worry. Listen to me. The Demon Overlord isn’t the Exotic Beast you think he is.
“He’s actually on the side of justice. He’s the embodiment of empathy from the evil god’s soul, so don’t worry. He didn’t hurt me!”
“That’s great!”
Lan Xi responded excitedly.
“Lan Xi, listen. I’m going to use the Time Mirror to go back to the primordial era, so I may be gone for a while. I’ll be back in seven days at most.
“You guys can slowly make your way to the 36th floor for now. Because the Demon Overlord was actually imprisoned here by the evil god, we can’t go down to look for you directly.”
“Okay, I got it! You must come back safely!”
“Alright, Lan Xi, that’s all I have to say. Time is tight, I’ll be setting off!”
“Yes, yes! I’ll be waiting for you!”
Once the call ended, Atlas spoke to Fike again.
“Oh right, human, there’s one more thing I have to tell you. All the weapons and equipment you’ve gathered in Miracle will lose their effects in the primordial era. Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
“Unless…”
“Unless what?”
Fike urged him on.
“Unless those weapons or equipment are products from the primordial era.”
