Endless Debt Chapter 1349 - 107: Dual Helix_3
Previously on Endless Debt...
In a daze, Aimou felt an inexplicable illusion, as if she were floating in the starry sky or deep in the ocean, surrounded by countless glowing plankton.
The entire space was shrouded in a mysterious and eerie atmosphere, the light circle in Aimou’s eyes slightly contracted, and this magnificent scene momentarily made her forget the danger she had just faced.
Aimou carried Bologue, stepping onto the double spiral staircase, and suddenly she heard the sound of trickling water. Looking down, she noticed that on the long double helix staircase, golden liquid was flowing down step by step like a waterfall.
"Ether?"
With just a glance, Aimou recognized this sacred golden liquid, which was pure enough to be liquefied Ether.
Looking towards the end of the double spiral staircase again, as Aimou ascended slowly, she could clearly feel the concentration of Ether around her multiplying. It was so intense that it caused the Alchemy Matrix on her body to resonate, and Bologue’s shattered body began to heal past the charred burns at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Aimou was about to reach the end of the double spiral staircase, but just as she was about to step into that unknown space, her foot hovered in the air, reluctant to step down.
The Ether concentration here was too high. Aimou searched through her memories and recalled only feeling such a dense Ether once during Bologue’s promotion to Negative Power User at the promotion ceremony.
At that time, the terrifying Ether concentration lasted only for a moment, but here it seemed to have existed since the creation of the Golden Palace.
A sudden sense of panic welled up in Aimou’s heart. She felt like she was crossing the boundary of the material world, reaching into another world.
A world filled with Ether.
It felt as if someone gently pushed Aimou from behind. Her body leaned forward involuntarily, and her suspended foot stepped down. Aimou completely ascended the end of the double spiral staircase, and there she saw the dazzling starry sky.
"So beautiful..."
Aimou laid down Bologue’s body, letting it roll a few times on the ground.
In her pupils was reflected countless stars, the core of which was a radiant white day. Surrounding the white day, stellar orbits arranged variously sized celestial bodies, rotating slowly in a certain order, playing out the wonders of the heavens.
"So great, King Solomon."
Aimou understood everything at that moment, and couldn’t help but marvel.
The facts won’t lie. The overwhelmingly abundant Ether here declared an undeniable truth: Aimou’s guess was correct. This place was indeed the Ethereal Realm, or rather, the overlapping place of the Ethereal Realm and Material Realm.
A Gate of Origin concealed by King Solomon.
"You transformed the Golden Palace into a massive Alchemy Armament, extracting boundless Ether from the Ethereal Realm, using it as fuel to enable light to burn eternally."
Talking to herself, Aimou’s body couldn’t help but tremble with excitement and astonishment. She didn’t know how to describe her feelings, wanting to share this ecstasy, but Bologue was still in a state of death, unresponsive.
At this moment, distant footsteps came from the front, causing Aimou to become alert immediately. She also heard faint voices of conversation.
Apart from herself and Bologue, someone else had intruded into the Golden Palace, and Aimou’s heart was completely on edge. She knew very well that she didn’t have much combat ability—should she put up a desperate fight, or... hide inside Bologue’s body?
In her random thoughts, a terrifying conjecture suddenly emerged.
Why were the footsteps coming from in front and not from behind? It must be known that behind Aimou was the Material Realm, while in front... was the Ethereal Realm.
"I told you, I know a secret passage that leads directly here, and you didn’t believe me."
The conversation became clearer, and along with it, the blurry outlines of two figures became distinct.
Aimou saw the two people walking towards her. One was covered with scars and burns, with flames flickering beneath cracking skin, while the other wore a bulky and strange diving suit, continuously cracking mundane jokes.
They both noticed Aimou, and also the body of Bologue at her feet.
"Oh, I remember you."
Leviathan pointed with a finger, directing it at Aimou.
"Aimou Yazhede."
