In a cold and profound void, the power of all realms guided the group through folded spaces.
The raging void currents collided wildly all around, and even through layers of protection, one could feel their chilling aura.
It wasn't until three days later that the various forces gradually subsided.
A magnificent and incredible place came into view.
The endless world is constantly rolled up and folded, transforming from incomprehensible high dimensions into three dimensions visible to the naked eye, and finally into a plane as thin as paper.
It was as if an invisible hand had closed them like a book.
A city that defies description stands atop it, like a staple connecting all the worlds.
No matter which angle you look at it from.
The city’s iconic welcoming building always faces the visitors.
The transit point of all the heavens—the City of Freedom.
"No matter how many times I watch it, I am always amazed."
Jiang Yan stood at the entrance to the divine kingdom, his expression filled with emotion.
With his current strength, without the interference of the suppression rules of the various realms, destroying a small planet would be a trivial matter.
But to have the entire universe at your fingertips is something I wouldn't even dare to dream of, let alone do.
"Could you have done this in your prime?" Jiang Yan asked the archangel behind him curiously.
"It is only theoretically possible."
Loshia pondered for a moment, then shook her head and said, "The current worlds are a combination of the wills of all the eras that were defeated by the Abyss in the past, and their strength has reached an unimaginable level."
"Never won even once?" Jiang Yan was slightly taken aback.
"At least not in the annals of Heaven. All the endings are that the defenses are breached by the Abyss, and each plane is completely eroded and becomes part of the Abyss."
"Only a few powerful pantheons were able to survive that period of cataclysm by relying on their divine kingdoms."
"When the new era arrives, the abyss will be suppressed by some kind of rule, unable to immediately invade the newly born plane, and will gain a relatively peaceful period, just like now."
"I see."
Jiang Yan's heart sank.
Although I had heard from another archangel long ago that this era was the only chance to defeat the abyss.
But he didn't expect that he had never won even once before.
This is truly...desperate news.
etc!
Jiang Yan suddenly looked up at the sky.
The nebulae drifted by, the clouds were calm and the breeze gentle, showing no sign of anger.
The various realms actually let Losia say such a shameful thing without any reaction.
He vividly remembered that the Grim Reaper had only said, "The realms failed to protect the third emperor from the Lord of the Abyss," before he was targeted.
"Losia, are there no restrictions on what the other realms can say to you?" Jiang Yan couldn't help but ask.
"limit?"
After a moment of recollection, Losia suddenly realized, "For a period of time, it seemed like lightning would strike me frequently, the longest stretch lasting for more than three years. However, apart from injuring me at the beginning, it couldn't break through my defenses afterward. It got bored and gave up striking me."
"I see."
Jiang Yan was speechless for a moment.
It turns out that all realms are also bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong.
At that moment, the notification sound from all realms suddenly rang out without warning.
[Ding! Her Majesty Loshia is a vital force in the fight against the Abyss. The various realms do not wish to truly harm her, not because they lack the ability. Please adjust your attitude towards this system.]
[Furthermore, Lord Jiang Yan kindly reminds you: please do not pry into secrets that are beyond your control when you are weak.]
"Well..."
Jiang Yan paused, his breath catching in his throat as he watched the two lines of small text flash across the notification panel.
Is this... a sign of panic?
However, the second statement is correct: secrets are often accompanied by danger.
If someone else had said those words, they would probably have been wiped out by all the realms.
For a moment, Jiang Yan also gave up the idea of continuing to investigate the secrets.
"Let's go into town."
As the group approached, a soft light shone from the city, drawing them to a special temporary space.
It is about 50 square meters in size and decorated in a modern and minimalist style, which is somewhat similar to the dormitory assigned to him by the federal government.
It is said to enter the mind through causal magic and automatically generate the most comfortable environment for the person.
"Hello, I am your guide into the city, employee number L01178."
A slightly overweight, very approachable man appeared.
"I wonder if you gentlemen are satisfied with my image? Please feel free to make any requests."
He waved his hand lightly as he spoke, his figure shifting rapidly. A stunningly beautiful woman with a lithe figure, a purebred country dog, a robot with a metallic sheen...
"Hello, the initial appearance is fine." Jiang Yan nodded and smiled.
Based on my general understanding from my previous life and the fifth world I passed away from, most of these guides were professionals with low combat abilities who took on part-time jobs.
To earn one point, you need to be employed continuously for more than a month with zero negative reviews.
"Your taste is admirable."
The man returned to his original form and smiled, "Is this your first time visiting the City of Freedom? Would you like me to give you a basic introduction?"
"This is my first time here, but no introduction is needed. Let's go through the entry procedures."
Jiang Yan refused.
"As you wish, please stand over here."
The man took out a prop that looked like a digital camera, aimed it at Jiang Yan, and gently pressed the shutter.
This is a manifestation directly linked to the central hub of the City of Freedom, capable of automatically scanning and generating all information about the life within the frame.
A white crystal card fell out.
"Okay, please check if the information is correct."
Jiang Yan took the white crystal card and looked at it.
Name: Jiang Yan.
Rank: Lower God.
Affiliation: Seventh Universe, Star Region 079, Origin Star Federation.
Abyss level: 0.
Points: 0.
Access level: Level 1.
"no problem."
Jiang Yan glanced at it and nodded.
In the City of Freedom, white is the lowest rank, and all privileges and statuses must be earned through points.
Upon hearing this, the man took out a scroll and tore it open on the crystal card.
"With all realms as witnesses, entry is permitted."
A special law imprint landed on the white crystal card, generating a unique code.
"Alright, from now on you can be teleported to the City of Freedom by activating the crystal card."
The man then took out a metal box-like object and handed it over, saying, "This is the Encyclopedia of Freedom City. Think of your question, hold it, and you'll get the answer."
"Thanks."
"It was a pleasure to serve you. Goodbye." The man smiled and bowed.
The surrounding scenery disappeared.
Jiang Yan grasped the crystal card, channeled his divine power into it, and a virtual star map appeared before his eyes.
Currently accessible locations:
1. Free port.
2.079 Star Cluster Point.
"Holy Lord, where are we going?"
"Let's go to the gathering place in the star field first," Jiang Yan decided after a moment of contemplation.
As far as he knew, the Sixth Universe, which had suffered a major blow after the Fifteenth Abyss Trial, had been eyeing them covetously.
I should go and ask the seniors in the Federation for some information before making a decision.
With a flash of light, the group disappeared from their spot.
