Elizabeth had always been careful ever since she set foot on the upper ice field, but now she was finally feeling a little bit radical.
“Co on! Let's go over there and have a look!” she excitedly said to the other two.
At this mont, however, Zen beca extrely cautious and wary. “Wait a mont. There are still so ice blocks that haven't fallen off. It's not a joke when you get hit by these ice blocks.”
As soon as he finished speaking, another large chunk of hard transparent ice fell from above. With a clash, it created a massive hole in the ice field.
The three of them waited at a distance for so more ti. They didn't continue their slow approach until there was a clear sign that there would no longer be any solid ice falling.
The door outlined by the light was still closed like before.
Fearing that the tal box would be too cold to touch, Elizabeth imdiately released a divine fla of the Sun Crow race.
The divine fla was burning the surface of the tal box, but it did not extinguish quickly. It was like any ordinary fla, burning for a while before it quietly dwindled.
“There is no problem with the tal box, but how can we get in?” Elizabeth asked as she shook her head.
“Look! It seems that the center of the door is sowhat sunken,” said Libby, who was by their side.
Zen and Elizabeth shifted their eyes to the center of the door at the sa ti. It was not until Libby pointed out that they noticed that the center of the black tal door was indeed sunken.
“I wonder, what can be put in this sunken area?” Elizabeth asked. She looked really confused.
However, Zen's heart skipped a beat at that sa mont.
Judging from the size and shape of the sunken area, it was completely the sa with the size and shape of the Civilization Artifact of the Heavenly Obsession Civilization. It seed that the movent of this huge tal box had sothing to do with the Civilization Artifact under his control.
“I think I may know,” Zen said with a smirk.
Elizabeth and Libby curiously looked at Zen at the sa ti. Of course, the two girls hadn't imagined that all of this had been caused by Zen.
“Buzz...”
It was still a little troubleso to take out an Other Shore Token that had already been carried before.
After Zen prepared for a little while, a tal cubic box appeared in his hand.
“This box...”
“It seems to be just the right size!”
Libby's and Elizabeth's eyes abruptly lit up with excitent.
Zen pushed the Civilization Artifact into the sunken area. The Civilization Artifact perfectly fitted and matched with the sunken area.
“Buzz!”
Then, the red light around the door beca brighter. With a click, the Civilization Artifact bounced out, and the black door automatically opened.
“It's open...”
Elizabeth said in disbelief.
Things went on almost unimaginably smoothly.
It was as if the path of the upper ice field was made specifically for Zen.
After absorbing the Civilization Artifact into his inner world, Zen was cautious enough to not rush into the tal box imdiately. Like Elizabeth, he released a fire column first to test the temperature inside the tal box.
After the fire column went inside, the temperature did not change that much. Only then did Zen enter with the shield for caution.
The inside of the tal box was pitch black as if it was an unending void. Rays of green light could be seen, which made the inside of the tal box look like there were little snakes wandering along the wall.
Libby looked around and asked curiously, “This tal box is not a temple. It's simply an empty house. What's the use of an empty house like this?”
Elizabeth shook her head as if she was saying that she didn't know the answer to Libby's question. She had also never encountered a thing like this before.
Zen was quietly observing the faint light that was flowing on the wall. At the sa ti, he was also paying close attention to the Civilization Artifact in his inner world.
“You have completed the task of entering the core of Heavenly Obsession Civilization, and your reward for this is the activation of the core of Heavenly Obsession Civilization.”
“Buzz...”
When the Civilization Artifact made this sound, the number of rays of green light on the wall greatly increased. As thousands of rays of green light flowed on the wall, the entire tal box was imdiately reflecting in an eerie green glow.
Elizabeth and Libby warily looked around as they squeezed beside Zen with nervous expressions on their faces. If there was a trap, then they would all be dood.
Not to ntion other things but even if a Cold Prison covered them, they would all be frozen to their core.
“Don't, don't be afraid...”
Being squeezed by the two girls, Zen was at a loss for words. He could only say, “It's who activated the light.”
“You?” Elizabeth was stunned by what Zen said.
“Yes, this place is called the core of Heavenly Obsession Civilization. It was left behind by the Heavenly Obsession Civilization,” said Zen.
“So, what's the use of this place then?” Elizabeth inquired again.
Zen just shook his head and said, “I haven't figured out that part either.”
Just as the two of them were discussing, a ray of light suddenly shot out from a wall right in front of them.
The light swept across Elizabeth, Zen, and Libby. Then a green shadow slowly appeared on the wall in front of them. Judging from the curvaceous silhouette, it should be a shadow of a human woman. Its size and form were actually remarkably similar to that of Elizabeth.
When Zen looked at the green figure from head to toe, it suddenly spoke in a tuneful voice.
“Hello...”
This voice was incredibly special. It was neither a voice of a woman nor a man, neither a voice of a child nor an elder. It sounded as if there were multiple people—males and females, young and old—speaking at the sa ti. Judging by the sound ray alone, it was terribly like the Civilization Artifact of the Heavenly Obsession Civilization.
“Who are you?” Zen asked gently.
“?” The green figure was deep in thought for a mont. “I'm a consciousness created by the Heavenly Obsession Civilization.”
“A consciousness that was created? Are you a soul fragnt?” Zen asked curiously.
The Prival Lord of Heaven, who was listening in Zen's inner world, also had a strange look on his face.
With the theurgies on the Other Shore, all sorts of things could be created. However, a consciousness could never be created.
Just like what Zen thought, he also thought that the green figure was a soul fragnt.
“No, I am not a soul fragnt. I am not attached to anyone. I am an independent individual and I was created,” the green figure replied affirmatively. Obviously, it understood what a soul fragnt was, but it didn't think it was a soul fragnt.
Zen was still a little confused at what the green figure was saying. He could only make it clear if he asked it from another perspective, “So you are not a living creature but a puppet?”
“I am not a puppet either. Give a mont to think about how I can explain it to you more clearly...”
The light that ford the green figure flickered and then suddenly disappeared.
All the rays of green light in front of them lined up, forming a protective green curtain.
A mont later, the green curtain began to emit other colors. Then, a picture appeared in front of them. It was a picture of three people in another completely different world.
When the three of them saw this scene, shock and disbelief appeared on their faces.
“What is this? Isn't this an illusion?” Elizabeth excitedly exclaid in astonishnt.
“I am not sure but it seems to be a scene ford by scrolling pictures,” Libby said.
Zen nodded his head, then said, “All of the scenes are made up by constantly changing the light. I've never heard of this ans before...”
All kinds of illusions and magic arrays in chaos were very ordinary theurgies.
Now, countless rays of light constantly changed to reflect complicated scenes. In the eyes of Zen, Elizabeth, and Libby, it was a difficult and thankless thing to see. Even if it could be done, it was aningless to do so.
“The ans may seem very difficult for you to do, but it's extrely simple for us,” the green figure said.
At this mont, a primitive land appeared on the curtain, and many small insects were born on that land. At the sa ti, the green figure spoke again with its eerie voice. “The Heavenly Obsession Civilization was actually the second chaotic era we have experienced. The experiences in that round of chaos have been annihilated in history. But I think you must have heard of the first chaotic era we have experienced. That was the Calculation Civilization.”
