Suddenly, Ryan stopped speaking and frowned.
Even the atmosphere between the two of them began to become somewhat stiff and tense.
A long time.
Raine spoke up: "The Ancient One and Odin, the God-King, reached some kind of agreement, didn't they?"
The Ancient One did not deny it, but nodded and said, "Yes, the World Tree is still growing, and taking its branches and leaves requires a sufficient price."
"Of course, for Your Majesty, that might not be considered a price, but rather an opportunity."
Raine frowned even more deeply and said, "Ancient One, whether it's a price or an opportunity."
"I need to know what that deal actually is."
"It feels bad to be kept in the dark."
"Furthermore, I believe that as a party involved, I have the right to know the truth, don't I?"
“Of course!” Gu Yi nodded and said, “Back then, in order to pluck the branches of the World Tree, I had a brief encounter with Odin. In Asgard, I was powerless against Odin, the God-King.”
"Similarly, Odin, the God-King, held a certain advantage in Asgard, but he was also unable to keep me here."
"So, I made a deal with Odin."
"Odin, the God-King, gave up the branches of the World Tree and the Eternal Flame, while we on Earth need to ensure the safety of Odin's three children during Ragnarok."
To be precise, Odin used the World Tree and the Eternal Flame to obtain the help of either Ragnaros or the Ancient One.
A very reasonable deal.
But Renn still had a slight doubt and said, "Ancient One, if I'm not mistaken, neither you nor Odin are at the level of the Heavenly Father, are you?"
“I think if Odin the God-King needs it, he can go and save his children himself.”
"In fact, Odin, the God-King, should have been able to stop Ragnarok, right?"
Seeing Raine's confusion.
The Ancient One nodded and said, "That's right. Both I and Odin have reached the peak of the single-universe level and could step into the multiverse level at any time."
"But this is not a good thing. The entire multicultural world today is facing a great problem."
“All the magnificent beings at multiple levels have disappeared.”
"Neither the Vishanti nor the ancestors of the Aesir left any information, which is extremely frightening."
At this point, even someone as powerful as the Ancient One was clearly somewhat downcast.
Actually this is normal.
Both the Ancient One and Odin, the God-King, had powerful backgrounds in the past. As long as they followed the established path, they could have easily become towering beings at the multiverse level.
But suddenly, all the magnificent and diverse existences in the entire world vanished.
It's as if the future and path of the Ancient One, Odin, and others have suddenly become pitch black and unknown.
Originally, according to the established route.
In the near future.
Odin will transcend the multiverse, thus faking his death and heading to Valhalla.
The Ancient One also faked her death to follow the Eternal God.
Whether it's Ragnarok or Thanos's attack, it was all within Odin and the Ancient One's expectations and was considered a manageable risk.
But now, nobody knows what they will encounter when they break through to the multi-level.
There is even a very high possibility that breaking through will mean death.
The Ancient One was somewhat better off. As an ordinary Sorcerer Supreme, she was able to control the growth of her cultivation and prevent her situation from deteriorating.
Odin, however, possessed the divine bloodline that allowed him to increase his cultivation even without eating or drinking, or simply by idling.
In this way, Ragnarok in Asgard became uncontrollable.
That's why Odin, while still alive, tried his best to maintain the established trajectories of many key figures in the river of fate, in order to ensure that Ragnarok would proceed according to its original course.
Only then would Odin be willing to part with the World Tree and the Eternal Flame, showing a sense of human kindness.
The World Tree branches and leaves are a gift to the Ancient One.
The Eternal Flame was an extra investment made for Rennes as a favor.
Especially given how quickly Renn's cultivation and combat power have improved, Odin deliberately waited for Renn in the River of Fate and invited him to Asgard once again.
After understanding the schemes of the Ancient One and Odin.
Renn's mind was also much calmer.
Then, with a slightly tentative tone, Raine spoke again: "Ancient One, regarding those suddenly vanished multiverse beings and majestic beings, is there not even the slightest clue in Kamar-Taj and Asgard?"
Chapter 184 The Truth Behind the Disappearance of Multiverse-Level Powerhouses
Rein had some guesses about the disappearance of those multiverse-level powerhouses in this world, and even those as great as the five gods.
Dimensional ascension and leap at the level of the vast universe.
In the depths of his being, Renn could even sense the yearning emanating from the will of the world.
The world is yearning for the emergence of more power systems.
Various conservative and rigid multi-faceted powerful figures are banned, while various unexpected superheroes and supervillains are born.
These are the kinds of diversity that the world's will demands.
Only through sufficiently diverse changes and developments can there be a glimmer of hope to break through the limits of the world.
But Ryan couldn't guarantee that his deduction was correct.
If this multiverse has ever experienced a dimensional ascension, then powerful and established factions like Kamar-Taj and Asgard should have some records of it.
Hearing what Renne said.
The Ancient One paused for a moment, then exchanged a meaningful glance with Raine.
Raine gave an awkward laugh and said, "Ancient One, I know I'm handsome and easily attract women's attention."
"But, I prefer long, flowing hair, at least someone has hair..."
Rennes's intention was to ease the tension.
But before Renn could finish speaking, a portal suddenly appeared beneath his feet.
The Kamar-Taj torture of freefall was inflicted on Raine on the spot.
A short while later.
Looking somewhat disheveled, Raine used the Five Ghosts Soaring Through the Sky Technique to emerge from the layered, slicing gaps in space, his clothes torn to shreds by the spatial blades.
After a flash of white bone and jade light, he regained his proper appearance.
Raine glanced at the Ancient One speechlessly, then silently sipped his tea.
They even said you have to use a slingshot to open a portal, what a load of rubbish!
When the Ancient One launched her sneak attack, I didn't see her make any move. It was a one-thought casting, a typical instantaneous spell. The other party was hiding too well.
And then he saw Renn's depressed look.
A smile flashed across Gu Yi's eyes, but he remained perfectly calm and said, "Your Majesty Rein, it seems you have some thoughts about the disappearance of the multiverse's great beings?"
Renn silently uttered four words: "World Dimension Ascension!"
Click.
The moment Raine finished speaking.
Finally, the Ancient One lost her composure, her hand trembled, and she knocked over the teacup in front of her.
Then, a slight silence fell over the room.
After a full ten minutes.
The Ancient One, looking somewhat somber, asked, "What is the basis for Your Majesty's speculation?"
“Intuition!” Raine took a sip of tea and said, “I wonder if the Ancient One has ever heard of the connection between heaven and man?”
"The cultivation of immortality emphasizes understanding the will of Heaven and benefiting all people, practicing the Way to achieve truth and transcend the mortal realm."
"I have a method called the Five Emperors Great Demonic Power."
“By cultivating the Five Emperors and establishing a Dao Palace, one can sense the existence of the world's will in the darkness. It seeks more changes, while those diverse and magnificent beings are obstacles.”
The Ancient One neither confirmed nor denied Raine's speculation.
After a few breaths of silence.
The Ancient One then spoke, saying, "I don't know if your speculation is correct."
"However, there are some records about the ascension of the world in the legacy texts left by Vishanti."
"In the very beginning, the world was a single universe with a flat sky and a long timeline. When it reached its peak, an all-powerful first firmament was born."
"There must have been a world-level ascension in that era, but an unexpected war between the gods broke out."
