Poseidon?

Ye Bai was certain that the sea god before him was his true form descending.

So... this old guy escaped from the Temple of Eternity?

As Ye Bai sized up the other party, the Sea God was also sizing him up.

Inside the Eternal Tower, the two sides fought several rounds of magic from a distance, with the Sea God giving Ye Bai a lot of wool.

The Sea God played a part in Ye Bai's previous job change to obtain the Void Fire element.

The sea god spoke once more, his voice booming and resounding throughout the entire thirty-fourth floor.

"Shura, there is no need for life and death between us."

"oh?"

Ye Bai hadn't expected this opening line.

Since the other party showed goodwill, Ye Bai wasn't confident he could kill them, so he decided to hold off for the time being.

Ye Bai pondered for a moment,

"If you're really sincere, shrink down to a normal size first. Talking to you like this is too hard on my neck."

"My divine body has shrunk to this extent; it is already at its smallest size."

Poseidon shook his head and offered his own solution.

His enormous divine body sat cross-legged on the ground and no longer spoke.

at the same time,

A figure emerged from the waves, a projection created by the sea god using his divine power, a perfect replica of the sea god.

"Shura, as I said before, I have no ill intentions."

The Poseidon projection was remarkably straightforward, getting straight to the point.

"Even if I disregard the eternal rules, I would not dare to lay a hand on you, much less kill you."

The power possessed by gods is already on another level.

Even if Ye Bai is inside the Eternal Tower, the gods still have ways to kill him directly.

Therefore, the Poseidon projection did not use 'cannot,' but rather 'dare not.'

"That's interesting."

Ye Bai closed his eyes slightly, his mind racing.

Prior to this meeting, he had dealt with Poseidon more than once.

Based on past experience, the Sea God is not afraid of offending Ye Bai, and is even willing to make things difficult for Ye Bai as much as possible within the limits of the rules.

The other party's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees.

Ye Bai couldn't help but be surprised.

The sea god spoke again, slowly saying...

"Haven't you always been curious about the origins of the Eternal Temple? I can tell you some valuable information."

"Wait a minute, the free stuff is the most expensive."

Ye Bai interrupted the Sea God.

"Besides, how do I know you might be withholding important information to mislead me?"

"That's easy."

Poseidon grinned and said casually,

"Just think of it as me telling a story."

As for whether the story is true or false...

You're smart enough to make your own judgment.

Poseidon was determined to speak, and Ye Bai couldn't stop him from talking.

Ye Bai nodded. The Sea God makes sense!

Before the Sea God began speaking, Ye Bai took out two bottles of wine from his storage space.

One bottle is made of Ye Bai, and the other bottle is also made of Ye Bai.

He had no intention of giving any to the sea god.

Poseidon:.......

After composing himself, the sea god spoke again.

In ancient times, all races lived together in the same world.

Powerful figures from various races emerged one after another, and wars raged on; it was an era of chaos, disorder, barbarity, and violence.

Ye Bai nodded slightly, agreeing with the Sea God's statement.

Poseidon continued.

"Back then, the most powerful beings had many titles: God of all gods, Venerable One, Supreme God... also what you humans call the strongest beings."

Ye Bai raised an eyebrow slightly and asked,

"So, in ancient times, the strongest beings were only level 1000?"

If the power ceiling is level 1000, then where does the supreme demon god come from?

"right."

Poseidon confirmed Ye Bai's guess and said in a deep voice,

“I personally experienced that chaotic period when I was very weak and God was a high and mighty being to me.”

Many races have a supreme seed that attempts to reach the supreme position.

Some seeds succeed, while others fail. The strongest seeds that fail usually die, or suffer a fate worse than death.

Ye Bai also knew this information.

The most famous example is when Blood Ancestor attempted to reach level 1000, which directly attracted the allied forces of the five races, who wanted to stop him!

The Blood Ancestor ultimately failed, causing the Blood River to run rampant and severely damaging the entire Blood Clan, relegating them to the lowest of the three clans, from which they have yet to recover.

But Ye Bai already knew all this information, so why did the Sea God bring it up?

"The Eternal Tower exists to solve this problem."

Poseidon succinctly refuted Ye Bai's doubts, stating directly,

"In ancient times, if a supreme seed were to attempt to reach level 1000, it would often attract a pack of wolves, who would then gang up on it and kill it."

Even if one successfully reaches level 1000 and becomes the strongest, one is destined to die young. One will either die at the hands of other strongest individuals, or for some other strange reason, or simply disappear without a trace.

Over the long span of ten thousand years, no supreme being of any race has lived longer than 1,000 years; this is the origin of the curse that the strongest must die.

Hearing this, Ye Bai became engrossed, not missing a single detail.

Ye Bai was hearing all of this information from Poseidon for the first time!

There must be relevant records within the human race.

but,

The nature of the matter has subtly changed due to the existence of the historical inventor, Shadow Nine.

Information from other sources is for reference only.

The information provided by Yingjiu is intended to mislead.

Regardless, Ye Bai was already quite satisfied to have gotten this information for free from the Sea God.

If Ye Bai really has to kill the Sea God later, he might consider going easy on him.
