317. Transcendence (3)
Devil.
One of the ancient deities encountered in the giant tree labyrinth, and one who reigns as the first lord of the underworld.
There was a monster out there that had spent countless hours as an ancient deity, even being said to have existed since the beginning of ti.
[ …. ]
Even if they reach the level of the sa ancient deity, their levels cannot be placed on the sa line.
‘…Perhaps it can’t be compared to the ancient deity, the Demon God.’
It was worth it.
Even if you have accumulated until you have exceeded the percentage of the 2nd Ascension with the myth < Possibility of Transcendence >, that doesn’t an you can surpass the ancient deities.
I just got the minimum level to beco an ancient deity.
Of course, this is by no ans a low achievent.
‘Still, I’m not too far behind the ancient godhead.’
In fact, having reached the beginning of the ancient deities, I have been able to exert overwhelming power against the deities of lower ranks.
‘I’ve definitely gotten stronger.’
Not even that.
‘And above all, I have achieved true immortality now.’
The stage of conceptualization achieved by becoming an ancient deity.
Now I am like the very concept of divinity < transcendence > and divinity < death >.
Therefore, there is almost no chance of death, and even if one suffers great suffering from divine authority, it is only a temporary exhaustion of divine power.
[ …nothing to worry about. ]
At that, I shook my head and brushed off any hesitation.
Assuming the worst situation, even if I beco hostile to the Demon God, I have the confidence to survive.
And as soon as I finished thinking like that, I opened the black stone door right at the end of the eting room.
coogu palace.
As soon as my hand touched the black stone gate, a majestic sound resounded and the scenery beyond it unfolded.
[ …. ]
The old-fashioned decorations that decorate the long red carpet, the air that takes your breath away, etc…. A
space that seems to have been created for the purpose of eting the monarch itself.
At the end of each place that exudes a different antiquity, a person sitting on a black throne caught my eye.
He smiled as if he was very satisfied with that.
[Have you reached this point in the end? ]
And I knew right away who he was.
[Congratulations, challenger. ]
Exactly…
[You deserve to hear the truth of the tower. ]
One of the ancient deities and the first lord of the Demon Realm, the Demon God, was there.
***
The mont I finished saying that I deserve to hear the truth of the world.
[Really…]
The devil laughed lightly and said, not matching his sharp eyes.
[It’s better than I imagined…! ]
He tapped the armrests of the throne with his fingers and continued as if humming.
[I never thought I would kill my apostles and beco an ancient deity! ]
As if the situation was genuinely enjoyable.
[ These apostles were carefully selected from among the 72 demons, but if they were used to help a monster like you grow, there would be nothing to regret! ]
And I watched him with bated breath.
‘…but there’s no hostility for now.’
I thought maybe I would kill the demon right away after learning that it had beco an ancient deity, but…
did I worry too much?
Even though he had risen to the level of an ancient god, the Demon God did not show a very negative reaction.
At this point, I can be sure that the Demon God does not have any hostile feelings toward .
That’s why I watched him quietly, and then I made up my mind and asked him a question.
[ …Aren’t you worried that I’ve beco an ancient deity? ]
[ Why do you think so? ]
[ …the purpose of the tower is to kill all deities, isn’t it? So if I beca an ancient deity, you’d be worried. ]
[ That’s a boring question. ]
Only then did the demon lower his excited voice and frivolous atmosphere.
[Becoming an ancient deity, you would have noticed if you were subordinate to the concept. ]
His voice was so low that he even thought it was chilly now.
[Becoming an ancient deity is not a very good thing. ]
But I couldn’t make out what it ant.
[ …. ]
Being an ancient deity isn’t very nice…
I couldn’t understand it.
Isn’t it already a transcendental state to enter the true aning of immortality with the status of divinity?
But what is not good about achieving such a state?
When I questioned him, the Demon God frowned and said,
[ hmm. Is it because of the shortcut to becoming an ancient deity? It seems that the understanding of divinity itself is definitely falling. ]
He seed to be thinking about how to explain for a while, but then he moved his lips and continued.
[Isn’t the ancient deity bound to be immortal because it was subordinated to the concept? ]
[What is that… ]
[An ancient deity discarded the vessel called the body and beca a kind of spiritual body. It is a form close to a certain concept having a will rather than a life. so it won’t die. ]
[ …. ]
Only then did I understand.
[You’re saying that even the tower can’t overco the immortality of the ancient deity? ]
That the tower could not remove the immortality of the ancient deities.
[ okay. After all, even a tower cannot annihilate an ancient deity. As an ancient deity, I can’t achieve it even if I wish for it, so the tower is no different. ]
[ …. ]
[ Death? It disappeared at the point where it was already subordinated to the concept. If there are demons sowhere in this universe, I will have no choice but to be immortal. ]
[That’s… ]
[And isn’t that the sa for you? ]
The Demon God said with a cool smile.
[Unless the concept of death disappears in the universe, it is immortal. ]
That too, pointing out the core of immortality achieved through conceptualization.
[Even if you want to disappear yourself, you can’t do that. ]
[ …. ]
[ So don’t worry even if the tower raised an ancient deity. ]
[ Is that so? ]
However, contrary to what the demon said, the light on his face changed to cold.
[However, if even an ancient deity could be eliminated, it would be a transcendental being. ]
[ Transcendence…? ]
[Yes. transcendent. The story will be different only if there is a transcendental being who surpasses everything… who can eliminate the very concept of an ancient god. ]
[ Eliminating the concept itself. That can’t be possible…]
The mont I tried to deny the demon’s words, frowning at him.
[It’s possible. ]
And.
[At least, the possibility itself is undeniable. ]
At that, the demon quietly and casually opened his mouth as if he were talking about common sense.
[That’s why the tower was created by fusing the ancient deities. ]
…what?
***
In the blink of an eye, my head turned white.
‘What is this again…’
It was just like that.
‘The Tower of Trials was created by combining ancient deities?’
Tower.
The utopia it hopes for is for all of the nurous divinities to disappear without falling out.
Therefore, the Tower of Trials was to nurture challengers, identify candidates among them, and temper them into weapons capable of eliminating deities.
[ …. ]
However, according to the story of the demon, the purpose of the tower becos incomprehensible.
[ …Ah, could it be that it was sudden to say this all of a sudden? ]
In fact, the Demon God tilted his head as if he knew that.
[But now you have no choice but to know. That this is the truth that the tower has been hiding. ]
However, I couldn’t deny the demon’s words just because I couldn’t understand them.
[ …at least I don’t think it’s a lie. ]
That’s what he should be…
[The skill ‘Fire Dragon’s Eye’ sees through that there is no lie in the opponent’s words.]
Before he knew it, the power of the skill found out that there was no lie in his words.
Didn’t the skills even grow to the level where even an ancient deity could be used by the transcendence myth < Spirit Tuning >?
Since the identity of the tower was directly told by an ancient deity, it cannot be dismissed as a lie.
But even so, it wasn’t very neat to pass through the incomprehensible realm casually.
[But that doesn’t an I can fully understand it. ]
[ Why? ]
[If you think about it that way, the tower is also a type of deity called an ancient deity. ]
[ Whoa. ]
[ Isn’t that a contradiction? ]
If the Tower of Trials was really a mixture of ancient deities, it seed like a contradiction to exclude all deities in the universe.
In the first place, you could say that the Tower of Trials itself is a type of godhead.
If so, it was impossible not to know that the origin of the tower was contradictory, so the Demon God who heard that nodded his head as if he noticed right away.
[In a nutshell, if you look closely at the tower, it’s a kind of deity, so you an you want to know why you want to exclude the deities? ]
[ Yes. ]
[But I don’t think you can answer that question. ]
[ Why? ]
[ That’s why. ]
Then the demon god slightly raised a finger, and a small flash of light flashed there.
Pajijik…!!
‘This.’
And it wasn’t that hard to figure out what it was.
[Causal law…]
Before I knew it, the tower was blocking the devil’s mouth.
Chii-.
And the Demon God who showed it shook off the constraints of the law of causality rising from his fingers and went crazy as if he knew it.
[ okay. causal rate. The restrictions that the Tower placed on deities all over the universe. Until this heavenly sentence disappears, I cannot give you the answer you desire. ]
Even the application of the law of causality has not been completed yet.
[So far, I have used my apostles and the causal rate obtained through the qualification test, but even that seems to have reached its limit now. ]
At the point of having already defeated the Demon God’s apostles, the law of causality must have been manageable to so extent.
I just used up most of that causality by hearing the truth about the tower.
Perhaps, as long as the law of cause and effect allows,
I think I have already obtained all the information.
[That doesn’t an there’s no way at all, is it? ]
Even if you step back like this anyway, what will happen after that is the tower’s thorough control.
[The law of causation is to satisfy the cause that will cause the result in the first place. ]
Then, it is the right choice to hear the whole truth from the demon here.
[If so, isn’t there a price to satisfy the law of causality? ]
Even if it had the risk of bringing about its own destruction.
[The price is fixed…. Is that what I think is right? ]
The mont he smiled as if he knew roughly what he drank.
[Perhaps. ]
As it was, I barely pulled the corners of my mouth in a cold sweat.
[ …I just need to prove that I can hear the answer from the demon god through pure power. ]
The aning of the word to satisfy the law of cause and effect through a duel between ancient deities was simple.
[I will push until I can hear the answer. ]
In a word, he was going to deal with the demon seriously.
[Kuh…]
But.
[Keuheob keuheu keuhuh ha! It’s fun, it’s fun…! Is that how you’ve grown? How wild! ]
Nevertheless, the Demon God gave off a fishy smile as if it was unreasonable.
[But it’s nonsense that you’ve just achieved immortality. ]
It deserved it.
[Honestly, it’s slightly better than a high-ranking deity, so I don’t think it’s very likely to be an opponent. ]
Even if they are the sa ancient deity, aren’t demons monsters that have accumulated power since the beginning of ti?
[You’d better get rid of the trivial jokes…]
So there was no need to convince him.
[What the hell is that? ]
[ ? ]
[ You’re kidding. ]
[ …huh? ]
[ I think you’re misunderstanding sothing. [

After all, if anyone were on that level, they would feel that superior.
[I seriously intend to fight.]
…until I woke up after being beaten.
