Chapter 3720 Chain Bridge

Light streamed out from the window of the cabin.

However, despite that the cabin was illuminated by the candlelight, one couldn't see anything through the window with just their naked eyes.

As the chain bridge came down from the opposite side of the soul pillars, the opportunity of exploring the secret in the cabin that remained unknown for over a thousand chaotic eras finally presented itself.

"Go ahead, Zen," the Primeval Lord of Heaven coaxed. "Perhaps you have obtained a chance to face them."

Staring at the chain bridge before him, Zen hesitated.

To be honest, the only reason why he was exploring the Soul City was to reach the Holy Soul Realm. Now that he had achieved his goal, he had a chance to turn back.

Yet, something tugged at him from the back of his mind. He carried the book of the human race, after all. He was the only hope of the human race.

In a sense, he didn't have the right to give up the opportunity to explore the secret.

"Who are 'they'?" Zen asked.

"The civilization that built the Soul City," the Primeval Lord of Heaven answered.

Zen's heart skipped a beat. "Is this the civilization that never existed?"

"Never existed? Who told you that?" The Primeval Lord of Heaven raised his eyebrow slightly, feeling a bit stunned.

"Snake Goddess," Zen replied. "Actually, to be precise, the avatar of her."

The Primeval Lord of Heaven smiled faintly. "Snake Goddess thought too highly of herself. The Soul City, the Land of Bone Tribulation, and the Eternal Scroll Painting are the proofs of the existence of the Instant Civilization. No matter how powerful the Element Spirit race is, it's impossible for them to create these things. In fact, they would try every way to destroy them first if they have the chance!"

If the Soul City and the Land of Bone Tribulation were completely destroyed, no one else would be able to enter the Eternal Realm. As the forerunners, the Element Spirit race could have prevented others from becoming stronger than them by simply destroying the Soul City and the Land of Bone Tribulation. Obviously, they had every reason wanting to destroy them.

Unfortunately, they hadn't succeeded. Despite trying more than once, they couldn't seem to completely destroy them. Helplessly, they had no choice but to watch as the Other Shore creatures and the Souls of Light came and went through the Soul City freely.

"Then... Are you saying there are remnants of the Instant Civilization ins

ime, space, truth, Godly Ways, and any laws--these were all designed by the Instant Civilization, a magical race that never made mistakes.

Zen nodded. Then, he proceeded to cross the chain bridge with ease.

The orange petals of light did no harm to Zen. On the contrary, they nourished his soul like a warm embrace. As Zen walked through the dense cloud of orange petals, he raised his arms to let his Soul of Light absorb them.

The chain bridge was only a few thousand feet long. It wasn't long before Zen arrived at the end of the bridge. Taking a deep breath, he stepped off the bridge and onto the path that led to the cabin with a spire.

It was only then he realized that the buildings in the Soul City were built quite strangely. The entrances were quite narrow. If the creatures of the Instant Civilization had forms, they must've been very thin...

However, after a few more steps, the path gradually widened.

Carvings decorated the sides of the steps, but they were of neither beasts nor scenery. The carvings were quite abstract, showing only shapes from squares to circles to triangles, and so on.

There seemed to be rich notes around these shapes. Upon a closer look, Zen realized these were fist-sized Sanskrit words that seemed to be explaining the connection between these shapes.

Zen surveyed his surroundings. However, he couldn't decipher the Sanskrit words. He was about to keep moving forward when the Primeval Lord of Heaven suddenly stopped him.

"Zen, wait for a moment. I want to study these intricate carvings..." The Primeval Lord of Heaven was extremely interested in these carvings and Sanskrit words.
