Facing David’s questions and extreme anger, the Guardian of Order remained calm and collected, showing neither panic in his attempts to defend himself, nor embarrassment at having been exposed.
“I never lie.”
He spoke slowly, his voice still mechanical and cold, but now carrying the weight of ancient vicissitudes of fate: “That black vortex is indeed an ancient gap between the heavens and the outer void.”
This was an ancient scar that had existed in the world before the thirty-six layers of heaven had fully formed.
“What you see as the predation of living beings and the taking of their essence is not my wanton slaughter of all living beings, but rather the helpless atonement that uses the lives of all souls to continue the existence of heaven.”
David’s pupils narrowed slightly, and his aura weakened.
Explain clearly.
The Guardian of Order’s figure slowly turned, his gaze fixed on the dark and hazy gap in the deepest part of the prison, and slowly revealed the greatest secret that was buried forever and forgotten by all living creatures.
“The Thirty-Six Heavens are not naturally formed heaven and earth, but rather a series of heavens constructed by the ancient gods themselves.”
“You can imagine the entire heavenly realm as a towering tower suspended in the endless void beyond that realm.”
The thirty-six heavens were the thirty-six levels of this tower, each interconnected and governed by the same laws, forming countless heavens on which all living things depended.
Beyond the tower lay an endless, chaotic, and dangerous void.
There is no law, no order, no basis for survival; the place was filled with strangeness, savagery, and endless destructive power.
“In order to protect the billions of living beings in the heavens, the ancient gods mobilized their supreme divine power and laid down an endless and impenetrable ultimate barrier around the entire thirty-six heavens, isolating them completely from external invasion and protecting the heavens so that they could live in peace for endless years.”
“However, as countless times passed, the barrier was not eternal. Ten thousand years ago, a supreme being from beyond the realm intervened and forcefully exploded a terrifying crack and penetrated the sky barrier.”
“This crack is extremely deep and long, stretching from top to bottom through all fourteen layers of the heavenly barrier, tearing and spreading from the 36th heaven to the current 22nd heaven.”
“If the cracks are not removed, the aura of the outer void will continue to permeate and erode the laws of the heavens, weaken the defense of the barrier, and attract countless demons and foreign powers from the outer realms to spy into the heavens.”
If this continued, the entire divine tower would gradually erode, crumble, and collapse, wiping out countless creatures in the sky, with no survivors.
