Chapter 400: The Titans
Within the Capital of God, Lu Zhiyu was still contemplating the last god and the details of how he could have perfected the Divine Kingdom after the world ascended. Suddenly, he realized that his Creator's Space, the space between the creations that he had left behind in the Starsoul World, had been discovered.
That was the second Creator's Space that Lu Zhiyu had created, but compared to the previous dimensional castle, it was much larger and more perfect. It was like a small world, but in other aspects, Lu Zhiyu hadn't left behind many things in that space. Especially after the completion of the world's ecological environment and the editing and creation of its life, the entire Creator's Space was basically emptied.
Lu Zhiyu had only left one thing in that space—the space mythical alchemy tower that he had tried to create. When Lu Zhiyu was studying and exploring the knowledge and technology of space storage and portals, that alchemy tower had been a masterpiece. He hadn't given it a name but treated it as a temporary laboratory and residence. Later, when the life system of the Starsoul World was perfected, Lu Zhiyu completely abandoned that space, especially as he knew that it would be discovered in a few years' time. It could have been a thousand years, or it could have been tens of thousands of years.
Among the few things left behind by Lu Zhiyu, there were also the mythical templates and inheritance of Starsoul World's three indigenous creatures—dwarfs, goblins, and trolls. Other than all those, there was nothing there.
It was impossible to receive the entire inheritance from the Creator in that world just like Wendy had. Although it was as large as a small world, and its rules and ecological environment were near perfection, compared to the importance and value, it was inferior to the Creator's Space of Maria's World. Lu Zhiyu had hidden most of his fundamental secret, which was also the most important secret of the world, inside that.
"It's already been discovered? Did the space exploration era develop too quickly?
"Or was it an accident? It's only by full mastery and exploration of the mysteries of the entire bitwall that it would be possible to discover the Creator's Space that I've left behind."
Lu Zhiyu felt a little puzzled, as he didn't assume a transmission failure had led to a special soul entering his Creator's Space.

Mientte Ambrose stood at the foot of the Tower of Heaven and looked up to see its swirling clouds, as well as the horseshoe-shaped bridges and pillars above them. It was a giant tower that truly spanned up to the heavens. But in the legend of the Starsoul World, the name of the Tower of Heaven had other interpretations. It was a giant tower leading to the throne of the God of Titan. Whoever could find the Tower of Heaven could inherit the bequest of the Creator, the God of Titan.
"This isn't an ordinary alchemy tower; it's a mythical alchemy tower!
"This mythical alchemy tower even has an impossible to achieve creature template that's been embedded with a spatial attribute!
"It's a huge space mythical alchemy life; it's alive and probably has its own will!"
Mientte Ambrose was in great shock as he flew up the huge stairway only to find that the stairway led to the gate of the Tower of Heaven, as if it was an endless route. No matter how far he traveled, the distance between him and the Tower of Heaven was never closer.
"It's no use; no one can get close to it without the permission of the God of Titan!" The troll, Colin, was standing at the Tower of Heaven and spoke with his husky voice. His soul had become very scant, its vitality gradually lost. Without special witchcraft or territory to protect it, it was possible for him to lose all his memories and vitality at any time, and he could eventually become a wandering soul.
"Maybe we can use space witchcraft to crack it down!" Mientte Ambrose was eager to try.
"Then it'll activate the defenses of the mythical alchemy tower. This is the control hub of the entire half bitwall, and it's likely that the entire half bitwall will be destroyed in the process!" Wendy, who was dressed in a white robe, stared at the steps that resembled a giant's stairway.
At the end of her sentence, Wendy stepped on the steps. She gently leaped, constantly jumping up. It was as if she was crossing various mountain tops. She darted up and finally reached the door of the Tower of Heaven.
Mientte Ambrose's jaw dropped, as he hadn't expected anyone to reach the top just by walking. The soul of the troll, Colin, wasn't expecting that either. As long as one didn't fly up, instead walking there slowly, one could reach the door.
"Lord Wendy, how did you know you could reach the door just by walking?"
"This is incredible. I've been here so long but I didn't know this. Her Majesty, you've figured it out when you only took a glance at it!"
Wendy stood under the Tower of Heaven, looked at Mientte Ambrose, and said, "You know what? On the steps below the Wizard Tower, the first step has a line written in ancient words. It says that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step!
"We can walk up to the door a step by step, but absolutely never reach the top when you choose to fly!"
"How could I have never heard of it? Is it a secret among wizards?" said Mientte Ambrose, who was in doubt.
Wendy immediately replied, "Of course you haven't heard of it! It was a tower of the past!"
"It was all the little tricks he likes to play when he was young!"
There were two spooky human faces on the bronze gate. They wriggled and said, "Welcome, little guys of the Starsoul World. You've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for a long time!
"I'm Manfred! I'm the master of this tower in front of you, and you need to answer a question from me to get in!" The weird face revealed a malicious smile.
"Go ahead!"
"What is the fairest principle but one which is impossible to fulfill in the world?"
Mientte immediately frowned. "This question has no standard answer. Any answer will do, since the world doesn't have any fairest principle. You can say no to any answers we've mentioned, but there's no standard answer in your system."
"I'm sorry, but there's a standard answer in my system! People who can't answer must accept their punishment! Even if both of you are mythical, this is my world! In this world, it's my call!"
Manfred seemed very excited. As one who had been silent for two or three thousand years, he wasn't aware of his own past and future. He only knew the mission that had been given to him by the man who built the tower. When he saw those who could move freely and pursue their wants, he couldn't help but be immensely jealous of them.
"Exchange of equal values!"
"Now, can you open the door, Manfred, the tower spirit of the Tower of Heaven?!" Wendy blurted out her answer, as if the question wasn't the least bit difficult, and she was convinced that it was the right answer. Moreover, she even correctly pinpointed Manfred's identity.
"How could it be? How do you know the right answer, and who I am?!" Manfred, who had pretended to be philosophical at the beginning, showed a look of surprise and alarm.
"How do you know who I am?
"Who are you?" Manfred shouted. His jealous gaze and begrudging voice echoed in front of the gate, but he had involuntarily opened the door and accepted the two. "This is my tower, and I'm the master of this world, you thieves, robbers! Get out of my tower!"
When Wendy walked in, she looked back at Manfred and said, "You're merely left here to watch over the gate. You don't even know who your Creator is! How dare you pretend to be the master of the bitwall? Ridiculous!"
Two humans and the soul of troll walked in the Tower of Heaven. The interior was empty, there was nothing, and it was like the ruins of an old tower that had been forgotten by time. It was as if no one had ever lived there, since there was no vitality.
The greatest feeling evoked in them was that the place was incredibly big; the building didn't look like it was designed for ordinary-sized life forms. Secondly, it was empty. When they walked all the way up, there was nothing to see.
Next, the space there was very strange. They were clearly going up, but they reached the bottom. When they were clearly walking down, they ended up at the top. It was a maze deep in the bitwall whereby one couldn't find a way out.
Fortunately, they had the Space Magic Master, Mientte Ambrose, with them. Eventually, they spent several days exploring the routes and methods, and at last, they reached the top and saw a statue.
It was a giant statue, thousands of feet tall, and it had a rough body shape. One could see its body swept with the flame and magma. If viewed from afar, one could feel the momentum of a surge of a volcano. Underneath the giant statue were the statues of a dwarf, goblin, and troll, that looked as though they were worshipping him.
Mientte and Wendy were focused on the control station and the hub beneath the Titan Colossus—it was the heart of that mythical alchemy tower.
Colin looked as if he had lost his mind, and he went forward and claimed, "I've finally seen it, Titan, the great Titan!' And as if it had felt the presence of Colin, a fire-red crystal along with a strong flame dropped down from the Titan Colossus. It went through Colin's body like a meteor.
Colin, who had already died, was reborn with a new body in the flames. His new body was taller, more powerful, and impervious to fire. It was as if he was born to be an ally of fire, one who was born extraordinary.
Colin reached out and saw a blazing flame flowing out from his body. He had transformed into a giant made from fire. He had received the Titan's inheritance and ichor. As long as he could smoothly advance, he, who already possessed a mythical template, could easily become a Titan. He would be the first from the trolls to advance as a mythical being.
Colin looked at Mientte and Wendy and immediately said, "I'll never forget your help and kindness. The trolls will always be part of the Arcane Kingdom. This is my promise to Her Majesty, Wendy!
"A troll's word of honor will never falter!"
