A torch.
The torch shone amid the dark ruins.
An illusory path came from afar, quietly emerging beneath the torchlight and extending all the way to Shen Ye.
-It had happened after Shen Ye gave up that survival trait just now.
The Faint Glowing Text still lingered in midair:
"You have awakened the dormant species mission, 'Poem of Eternity.'" "The 'Blessed Seal of Heavenly Mandate' illuminates the darkness. A path to guide your way will be born within the torchlight." "This is humanity's road to freedom, and it is also your choice." "Go and fulfill your mission."
Shen Ye looked thoughtful.
Indeed.
In history, the Human Race had once traveled this road.
-But they had failed.
Was it my turn to walk it now?
Even all those powerful mission cards hadn't been enough. What confidence could I have?
But if I wanted to escape others' control and grow stronger, I had to make it through this road!
Shen Ye lowered his head and looked at his hands.
A torch in one hand, a dagger in the other.
Through the torch, he could learn everything the Messenger had experienced.
The laws on the dagger were unrestricted.
It was dangerous.
But it was also an opportunity.
"Gate."
Shen Ye spoke the word.
The Spirit-Communicating Gate quietly appeared.
"Set the obstacle as the length of the path."
He pushed the gate open.
He stepped through.
Light and shadow shifted around him.
In an instant.
Shen Ye arrived at an Underground Square.
Xiatelai casually summoned two Azure Dragons, which unleashed Dragon Breath at the monster in the distance.
Su Su and Seventh Uncle stood guard on either side of her.
"Finished your business?"
Xiatelai asked.
Her tone had changed somewhat.
-The ability "Summon Divine Beast" belonged to her first personality, "Lanci."
