Old days in the box

Chapter 391 Who then, close the door!

In the lightless passage, Zhou Xiao fell silently.

Countless pairs of huge golden eyes went all the way down this spinning passage, as if countless giants were approaching his face, all silently watching his fall.

Zhou Xiao didn't like the gaze of these eyes, but this was the only thing he could see here.

After an unknown amount of time of endless falling, even his own consciousness began to become a little blurry. This feeling was worse than drowning in the sea - at least he could still feel the touch of water in the sea, but in the Here, there is nothing.

He was like a lone weightless voyager in deep space, surrounded by nothingness and almost unable to feel anything.

If it weren't for these golden eyes that were comparable to the Easter Island Colossus, constantly passing around him, he wouldn't even be sure whether he was falling.

But no matter how long the road is, it always ends.

From an unknown moment, he finally escaped from this lightless passage, left the huge golden pupils arranged vertically, and fell to the bottom of this passage.

Without the Golden Eyes as a reference, Zhou Xiao suddenly lost his sense of scale in the surrounding space. When he looked back, those huge eyes were quickly leaving behind him, and there seemed to be a wider space below.

Sure enough, it is the existence that truly knows everything, sees everything, and is omnipresent.

Everyone who has been favored by the box is trying to reach this end and usher in their grand ending. Only a handful of them have successfully reached it, and now, it is his turn.

The weak fluorescence gradually lit up around him, lighting up huge pictures one after another in a clockwise direction from left to right, depicting the lens perspectives of countless worlds in a downward spiral.

To be precise, it was more like a crack, but the size was very huge; reality shattered here, creating a huge crack nearly fifty meters long, from which an invisible shimmer of light overflowed, sending out another dimension. call.

Zhou Xiao had imagined countless ways of what this box would look like. No matter how grand or stunning it was, it was no surprise, but he never expected that the inside of the box would be such a weird and absurd scene.

That is the terminal door that can penetrate the two realms, from reality to the nine realms.

But even so, this does not change the fact that this is an exile.

Zhou Xiao looked around and saw that these pictures all lead to various realms of the Nine Realms. The all-out invasion of the Kingdom of Giants, the overwhelming invasion of the Kingdom of Elves, and the fierce battle in the Divine Realm all appeared here at the same time.

It's unreasonable, indescribable, yet terrifying.

Zhou Xiao no longer looked at the big screens surrounding him, but focused on the door of light towards which he was falling.

After passing through this door, his not-so-long journey officially ended.

He will be exiled to the world that he could only observe through the window, and become the supreme god who controls the wind and rain in it.

Zhou Xiao looked down the spiral screen. At the end where all the screens were closed, the door was right there.

As a reward for reaching the end, he can continue to own all the creations he has dragged in before, and then continue to rule the atrium for a thousand years, two thousand years, or maybe more.

It was like countless huge screens lit up around him at the same time, forming a complete spiral screen, wrapping him in the middle, playing live broadcasts from every realm to him.

All these screens connected together can clearly see all living beings in the nine realms, as if it is just a performance that can be fast-forwarded or rewinded at any time.

Zhou Xiao continued to fall in this empty space, until an abnormal feeling suddenly came -

If there really is such a door that can penetrate the nine realms and the real world, then this door can only exist in one place - and that is the body of this box.

There is no gorgeous divine light, no magnificent miracles, no exquisite spectacles. The only thing they have are these huge screens that resemble old-style TVs, blinking with pale fluorescent light.

He knew that he had reached the depths of the box.

He felt his fall slowing down.

This feeling was not obvious at first, but as the light faded, he soon discovered that the dimensional crack directly below suddenly stopped expanding, and even started to slowly shrink.

And between him and the crack, a figure appeared. That's...a person?

This is the forbidden passage where box users are banished to the nine realms. It is the terminal door hidden deep in the box itself. Logically speaking, it is impossible for anyone except the current box user to appear in this place.

However, that was not an illusion. Countless rays of light from space were converging from this indescribable passage, outlining the outline of a golden sun, like a planetary halo rising in front of a black hole.

The person who appeared in front of this door turned out to be the God of Door Keys, Sun Hao!

Zhou Xiao was so shocked by what he saw that he didn't even realize why He appeared here; but Sun Hao, who was floating in front of the door, had already turned his arms, causing the entire space to start rotating and translating.

This vertical passage that was supposed to go straight downwards rotated ninety degrees under His swing, and turned into a flat and forward parallel passage in the blink of an eye!

Zhou Xiao changed from floating in the air to falling to the ground, and walked forward along this dark parallel avenue until he saw clearly the God of Door Keys blocking the door.

But at this time, the God of Door Keys was no longer the one Zhou Xiao was familiar with.

He did not wear any fancy clothes—because He no longer had much concrete body to speak of.

The wheel of time and space imprinted with runes rotated in his body, driving a large number of body fragments that had become two-dimensional and flowing into a strange fluid structure, seeming to be trying its best to maintain the outline of a human form.

Zhou Xiao recognized it as the Rainbow Bridge in the God's Domain, one of the many miraculous creations dedicated to the gods by the dwarf country Svartalfheim. During his decisive battle with the sea gods Niord and Egil, the guardian sea Mdahl used this creation to open a passage, allowing the gods to overlook the battle in the atrium.

But at this time the creation was returned to its original owner.

"...Why?" Zhou Xiao couldn't help but ask.

"Don't be so surprised. This is not the first time you have seen this, isn't it." Sun Hao smiled and looked down at his strange flowing body.

Broken limbs, flowing and stitched fragments, continue to pile up around the Rainbow Bridge to form the outline of a person.

This is indeed not the first time Zhou Xiao has seen a scene like this.

When he had the final battle with Shenmu Qianhua, she completely integrated into the tree of the ancestor of foreign creation at the cost of sacrificing herself, using the only chance of 100% simulation. The Shenmu Qianhua at that time was exactly the same as Sun Hao at this time. .

They all took advantage of that taboo opportunity and obtained the complete liberation of God's authority at the cost of sacrificing themselves. They no longer had to be bound by the laws of equal exchange.

Folding, twisting, transferring, transmitting, all concepts about space were deconstructed in his hands, and he gained complete control of the "door".

This is the true posture of the "Key to the Starry Sky" and the God of Door Keys.

"If I didn't use this method, I wouldn't be able to enter this space... But I am the god of door keys in charge of all doors. How can there be a door in this world that I can't enter?"

Sun Hao laughed. Behind him, the terminal door leading to the Nine Realms seemed to be under some invisible pressure. It was constantly slowing down its expansion and shrinking inward.

Of course Zhou Xiao didn't believe the ridiculous reason he told, but he couldn't imagine why Sun Hao appeared here at all.

His mind was in chaos at this time, and he had no time to react; this should obviously be the destined moment for him to be exiled to the Nine Realms. He was even mentally prepared to face this fact, but Sun Hao's sudden appearance disrupted everything.

Logically speaking, this place does not belong to any of the nine realms. It is a transit place between the two worlds. No one should be able to set foot here without the permission of the box.

But Sun Hao happens to be a god who holds the power of "door" and controls all concepts related to "space" and "door". His appearance seems to be unexpectedly reasonable to a certain extent.

Zhou Xiao has always known that the box cannot completely override the nine realms. Sun Hao's previous ability to use his power to break the restrictions of the window and create a channel for dialogue between the two of them is an obscure example.

But he never expected that the authority of the "Gate" could penetrate to such an extent.

"...I don't understand, what are you doing here?" Zhou Xiao's mind went blank.

"Of course I'm going to help you close this damn door." Sun Hao had a smile on his face and looked back at the huge door to the end.
