The Shadow of Immortality Chapter 29: Do you believe in gravity? There is a way to rea

... Soone close the window, the sun is blinding!"

Clark sat up with a terrified face, bewildered by his surroundings. He wasn’t here before; he was in the Imperial square!

He glanced at his body and found himself wearing pajamas and covered in bandages. He looked around the room again; he felt this wasn’t any of the rooms in the Imperial Palace.

But the strangest thing for him was the woman clinging to his arm, fast asleep!

He quickly realized it was that Maria, but why was she attached to him like this?!

She soon opened her eyes and said:

·"So, you’re awake!"

·"Yes, I’m awake! Where exactly am I?"

·"You’re in the Blood Clan Tower, at the tri-border!!"

Clark raised his voice, shocked:

·"What?! The border? How long was I unconscious???"

·"Two full days, unlike the other guy who woke up after ten hours!"

·"What? Explain everything in detail! What’s the story with this place? And why were you sleeping next to ? Are you that bold?!"

·"Fine, I’ll answer you. First, we are a clan of assassins, or more precisely, we’ve beco one, and I aid to kill the Emperor that night. Second, you were shivering violently in your sleep, so I ward your body myself. Because I... well, let’s just say the reason I brought you here is a private matter you’ll learn later!"

·"Oh, I see! So why did you want to kill the Emperor?"

Clark didn’t ask about her hidden secrets, preferring an indirect approach because he didn’t care. It was actually good that he was near the border.

·"My reason is that he was the cause of my family’s and my clan’s annihilation, including my little brother. No one remained but . His vile, habitual practice was to hire soone else to do all his dirty work. That was his way. So I wanted revenge desperately. But when I moved to act, I found him already dead! I was shocked and furious. That’s when I encountered that Jin fellow and we fought!"

·"Oh, I see... Then why am I here?"

·"Because there’s soone who wants you present!"

·"Who is this person?!"

·"Don’t worry, you’ll know soon enough!"

He quickly grabbed her by the shoulders, pressing hard:

·"Woman! I’m not playing riddle gas with you! Don’t hide anything from !!!"

A bloody, transcendent Qi suddenly erupted from her. This was a stage that surpassed the King Stage! She surpassed him by a full stage! The aura of those at the Enlightennt Stage!

Clark quickly retreated, saying:

·"So you’re stronger than and Jin combined! Yet you chose to watch us fight it out, waiting for us to weaken each other instead of bothering to intervene! Isn’t my analysis correct?!"

·"You’re smart, you know when to retreat! Yes, you’re right about that. I watched you two fight and waited for you to collapse from exhaustion!"

·"Hahahahaha! A woman’s heart is truly a terrifying mystery!"

·"Well then! The person who wants you told to give you a ssage, Clark: Do you believe in gravity? There is a way to reach the higher world!"

Clark was shocked, his face pale:

·"What do you an?!"

·"Truthfully, I don’t know what he ant! But you’ll find your answer in the library. It’s the best library in the world! The Blood Tower’s library is even better than Dranglik’s own!"

·"What do you want from ? And why should I do this?"

·"You want to know?! You ask too many questions! You lack foundation! Why don’t you build a foundation instead of asking pointless questions with no purpose?!"

Clark grew intensely angry. He truly wanted to smash this woman’s skull because of her arrogance, which infuriated him. But questions flooded his mind: What did she an by gravity?

He suddenly rembered sothing important: In one of the texts from the Secrets of Heaven and Earth, there was a strange passage he thought was a poetic line written by the Venerable ’Great Love’. He sat on the bed, folding his arms, recalling the text. It was:

"Heaven and Earth brace between weights... The Earth is held by a colossal weight, Heaven is held by a colossal weight, but what if a phenonon occurs that disrupts this balance? Gravity is what holds humans down so they don’t ascend to Heaven!!"

Clark suddenly laughed, saying to Maria:

·"Truly interesting! You know many things, you say soone wants , and that I’ll find answers in the library! Well, well!"

Clark left, following a servant to the library. He asked the librarian for a map of the continent and a large number of books on physics and astronomy.

Clark read voraciously for two weeks, until his wounds had healed, devouring books until he concluded sothing:

The universe balances on gravity! Ti only stops due to a physical disruption in spatial force, and spatial force is only disrupted if gravity is disrupted! Ti and space all fall within the frawork of gravity! There is a cosmic force system, but it’s all just theories; the only certainty is gravity!

But indeed, there is a way to reach sothing greater: The immortal world, Heaven!!!

Let’s start with simple things: 1 1=2, basic axioms. But if we look closer, certain numbers hold stronger anings, like 1, 3, 6, 9, and finally 0! Many rumors say these numbers represent sothing greater! Nothing exists without a reason, this is basic and known.

But if one creates a matrix with Runic magic...

Clark got a book and kept reading: "Runic magic, its magical circles utilize Runic numbers which are 1, 3, 6, 9! These numbers used to generate miraculous matrices. But no one uses Runic magic like that anymore, ever since the group called the Lunar Trinity was wiped out for discovering a secret; no one knows who killed them!"

Clark kept thinking, questions arising in his mind: There are cosmic black holes that swallow everything! So what if we create a cosmic phenonon that generates a supernatural field that doesn’t swallow but expels sothing?! A gateway to a new world!!!

That’s what Clark said, but then he added: "But there’s sothing powerful about gravity! It’s written in books that compasses work in the nation of Lyon Heart but not in the nation of Qin! So there are repelling fields! There’s a mystery in the universe!"

And Clark rembered sothing! He quickly read about Perfect Relativity. Clark said: "It’s perfect! But what if we create sothing complete?! The matrix must be generated! A Zero man, aning he is both the engine and the reactant! If we produce that, it will succeed! But there must be a weak polar field, with sowhat weak gravity! A grand phenonon that only occurs in one place!"

"Let’s simplify: Normally, an ordinary human can jump one to two ters! But what if there’s a place where, due to a weak gravitational field, you could jump an extra ter and a half beyond your normal leap?! And that’s a great secret!" Clark laughed. "Also, the flow of ti would be stronger there if we activate the matrix!"

"There are forces in this universe described as infinite! If sunlight were reflected directly, a strange phenonon would occur, generating a great cosmic light! It would generate imnse power, like engines! aning: if the Sun is at the opposing point and the Moon at the other point, it creates a powerful magnetic field that could strip away gravity itself and weights! And likely, day and night would alternate at trendous speed, but this light generates infinite power, power that can overturn the balance and achieve the impossible!"

"But one thing I need to know: Which nation sees the dawn first? And which nation sees the dusk first? It’s the Gothic Nation! That’s where the grand phenonon will occur!!!"

"But if we calculate everything, the grand phenonon will appear in five years! Yet one question troubles : What if I can artificially create the grand event?! What if I manufacture everything myself? Would I accelerate everything and reach that state of completion that no one, not even the Venerables, has achieved?!"

"Then of course I don’t need the Great Tree, or whatever its na is! You can stick it where the sun doesn’t shine, you and your Great Tree! Keke ke!"

Suddenly, the voice of a strange man echoed, erging from the shadows, saying:

·"You have reached a great point! But you are still far from absolute knowledge!!! Humans have always hated knowledge..."
