This race, living in a cold age, during the period of extinction, finally found the well.
Even before this, they had high-dimensional perception and could use various source powers, but it was only the most basic application.
Except for the alienated ones, basically no one can survive this severe cold.
Everyone began to study the well vigorously.
In the following records, Bai Wu learned the brief history of the previous civilization.
The well is not far from this city.
To be precise, a well is not a specific place but an entrance.
It is unpredictable and changes rapidly.
Clearly under its influence, the surroundings had begun to become distorted and the space began to piece together irregularly, but the well could not be seen.
Fortunately, with the help of Alpha, the first group of people from the previous civilization, about 14,000 people... entered the Well World.
Bai Wu originally thought that he would see a lot of history next.
But the content that follows is actually very obscure, and all this history is omitted.
It was only briefly mentioned that "the thing that makes the well work is not at the bottom at the beginning, but at the top. This is what we were thankful for and crazy about at that time, but it is also what we fear and despair about later."
From this passage, Bai Wu only vaguely guessed that what made the well work was the well water.
The Lord of the Tower did not then describe how his people conducted their research in the well.
Instead, it shows a very magical development process.
"We are becoming more powerful. The power of each faction has reached an incredible level. We are confident that with this power, we are actually enough to sweep away everything."
"Even the most terrible natural disasters cannot kill us. They cannot even hurt us in the slightest. We are no longer bound by rules, and we can even trample on them."
"We have completely abandoned the exploration of science. The power brought by the distortion has made us lose ourselves."
"But at this moment, no one can refuse. We can transcend time and space, see through cause and effect, reverse life and death, live forever, and make this world idealistic."
"Those powerful powers that were once out of reach and could only be seen in the legends of our ancestors have been discarded by us because we have surpassed those legends among our ancestors."
"We found that once the well was opened, it seemed that as long as one survived outside, one would be able to gain strength."
"Even in our minds, we can choose to increase the corresponding power."
Companion force
Seeing this, Bai Wu was almost certain that this was the original form of the companion force.
"Everything is moving in a good direction, but all the collapse has also sown the seeds."
"Outsider, I think you understand one thing very well. Each of us is born with different initial abilities, but order ensures that even if our abilities are uneven, they are always within a certain range."
"Just like what I've seen, in your civilization, some people are very strong, some can run very fast, and some can jump very high, but... no one can destroy a city with one punch, no one can verify the theory of relativity with their own speed, and humans will never be able to break out of the atmosphere with just their legs."
"This is order. The inability to obtain extraordinary powers weakens the strength of individuals, forcing us to learn to unite and explore."
"But now it's different. After entering the Distortion Era, some powerful individuals began to mutate... All order is gone. All rules have collapsed. There is no law to anything."
"Indeed, each of us becomes stronger under distortion, but this strength is very irregular."
"Because there are always some individuals who are extremely powerful. This kind of abnormal strength is reflected in the fact that even if all the people are added together, they are far from being able to compete with him."
"My tribesman, the Lord of Distortion, is such a person. There are several similar beings among them."
"And because the differences between each individual are so great, unity... has
There is no meaning anymore.”
"When faced with a person who is ten thousand times stronger than you, you would not choose to seek out a person who is a thousand times stronger than you as an ally. Even if you do, the other party will not consider you."
"A complete force becomes distorted because of too many distorted individuals. My people have lost their respect for order because they have gained too much power. This respect is also reflected in the ethical principles."
"The rules of the world are broken, and the rules within people are beginning to break down as well."
“I have seen countless tribesmen who were as powerful as gods, but I have also seen their demise.”
"The well water gave me great power, and I realized I had to do something."
The film omitted the process of exploring the well, skipped a lot of content, and directly showed the changes in the tribesmen.
Bai Wu guessed that the experience at that time could not be replicated, so there was no point in mentioning it to himself.
Moreover, the world has once returned to normal, and human civilization has developed normally for thousands of years.
This shows that the Lord of the Tower has indeed done something.
White Mist opens a new page:
"In just a few decades, the well that was completely opened and continuously developed has brought about earth-shaking changes in the world. Perhaps in the historical records of your civilization, various myths will be used to explain some things. Some traces of the distortions that were once left behind."
"Civil wars broke out among the tribesmen. They became more and more arrogant and inflated."
"But what they didn't notice was that the rules of the world were becoming increasingly cruel and distorted."
"Many of our tribesmen have begun to mutate, which is what your civilization later called evil degeneration."
"There are fewer and fewer tribesmen who can truly remain clear-minded, and those who have mutated have become outright monsters."
"Their negative emotions are becoming more and more serious and intense. Their distortion and corruption of the world are becoming more and more exaggerated."
“Only a very small number of powerful individuals that evolve irregularly can survive under increasingly cruel rules.”
"A catastrophe that is countless times more terrifying than the bitter cold of winter and comparable to destruction has arrived. Such catastrophes are everywhere..."
"The arrogant tribesmen finally realized a fact - they despised order, but were born in order. They thought they could fight against the rules, but the distortion of the rules was far more terrifying than their own distortion."
"My people are finally facing extinction. In this extremely difficult living environment, I once again feel the power of the rules and my own insignificance. But this time, there is no redemption."
"Everyone despises rules, despises order, and obeys distortion, but in the face of unpredictable distortion, their life and death are also unpredictable..."
"I cannot accept this result. I think at this time, we can try to close the well..."
"In this distortion, I took 71 of my tribesmen and my followers and decided to go to the deepest part of the well to find a way to close it."
"This is naturally contrary to the Lord of Distortion's ideas."
"My followers and I are constantly searching for the truth. I believe we are breaking the balance, but the Lord of Distortion believes that the concept of balance is not tolerated in a distorted world."
"In the following time, I had a long duel with him."
Part of it was hidden in the notes, but Bai Wu was able to guess it.
After the Lord of Distortion opened the well, many individuals of this civilization became incredibly powerful.
Although the Lord of the Tower said that some individuals are too powerful and frightening, and even stronger than the sum of the strength of other ethnic groups.
But the Lord of the Tower was able to defeat Alpha, which shows that in this barbaric evolution, the Lord of the Tower was the one who grew the most terrifyingly.
It even has the strength to compete with Alpha, the first person to touch the well.
It is for this reason that it was able to regain a group of followers in such a chaotic and distorted era.
The genius and the madman once reversed their positions at the beginning of the distortion.
Today, the genius has proven his title of genius and is once again on an equal footing with the Lord of Distortion.
But Bai Wu noticed a number - seventy-one.
The Lord of the Tower, along with his seventy-one followers, began to go deeper into the well, looking for the deepest layer of the well
It was hard for Bai Wu not to think of another place.
In the fifth level of the tower, there were originally seventy-two rulers.
He suddenly shook his head and laughed mockingly.
"You have calculated so many causes and effects, but you overlooked a key point..."
Now everything can be explained.
Bai Wu originally thought that the fourth floor of the well world, the fifth floor of this reverse tower... There are so many spherical buildings here because there are many competitors for the well water.
But now it seems that everything went wrong.
These people are not competitors, they all have one goal. The Lord of the Tower brings his believers to try to comprehend the rules here.
Let's try to find a way to crack the distorted era together here.
Find a way to get things back on track.
After the Lord of the Tower created the Tower and suppressed Alpha, he saw that humans would also face distortion in the future.
Although that was thousands of years later, he still couldn't bear it.
Then he recalled everything he had experienced in the well, in this reverse tower.
It was here that the Lord of the Tower once lived, leading his people to think together, work together, and slowly restore order to the world.
Make those broken rules work again.
He saw that distorted future and thought about leaving such an opportunity for mankind.
On the fifth floor of the tower, there were originally seventy-two rulers, each with his own residence.
But human nature... sometimes doesn't need to be distorted.
Because human nature is sometimes distorted.
So the Tower has no ruler.
The Lord of the Tower hopes that there will be seventy-two "Pioneers" who can work together to find a way to deal with the distortion.
But the seventy-two pioneers obviously did not realize this, or perhaps it was because the guardians of the tower did not take this into consideration
The forerunners fought each other and eventually became eight tower rulers.
After the eight tower rulers took control of the tower, on the one hand they needed to go out of the tower to find resources for survival, and on the other hand they were afraid of humans leaving the tower because they would become stronger if they went out of the tower, and powerful humans would be out of control.
That’s why we have Gu Hailin, Nie Chongshan and other tragic heroes of the Survey Corps, and why there are repeated “purges”.
This notebook does not describe their explorations of the first-level Pure Well World, the second-level Well City, and the third-level resource competition area.
Since the outsider has come to the fourth floor, there is no value in elaborating on the previous part.
The Lord of the Tower begins to talk about the most important things later:
"Outsider, you probably already know the history of our tribe."
"If I really want to talk about this, I can fill up an entire library. But I guess you'd rather know how to completely shut down the well."
"Unfortunately, there is no way to completely shut down the well. My followers and I thought of many ways at the time, but we eventually found out in simulations that none of them were feasible."
"The well cannot be sealed, but it can sleep. When distortion comes, it actually wakes up. At that time, even if you hold the fragment of apocalypse, you can't close the well."
"And the only way to stop the distortion is to let the well fall asleep again, hide it, and select a guardian. Anyone who tries to approach the well and wake it up will be destroyed."
History Bai Wu probably understood.
He briefly sorted it out in his mind.
The Apocalypse Fragment is the piece of the Doomsday puzzle that Jing Er once had. It can open the Well for a short time, or it can make the Well fall into a deep sleep.
However, using Apocalypse Fragments carries great risks in itself.
Because the well is most likely not something that can be controlled by a single fragment, and once it is awakened by the Apocalypse Fragment, it may not be able to fall back into sleep.
Of course, this is not the only way to awaken the well.
It is also possible that the well will awaken naturally.
Seven hundred years ago, the well awakened naturally. It was also at that time that Sheng Kingdom was shrouded in black fog and lost contact with the rest of the world.
Jingyi originally thought that he could save the Lord of Distortion in one go.
But at that time, there were too many unpredictable factors.
Well Four went mad, and his strength was so overwhelming that even the other Wells combined could not contend with him.
The third brother had his memory erased and imprisoned himself in the cycle of reincarnation.
Jing Liu has ulterior motives and is difficult to predict.
The several people who appeared on the farm seemed to have received revelations from the Lord of the Tower.
The most important thing is that the "weapon" with mental power strong enough to distort reality was stolen by Bai Yuan.
All factors erupted at the same time, the concentration of distortion in Sheng quickly increased, the tower appeared, and mankind was saved, but until the tower disappeared -
Jing Yi was never absolutely sure.
At that time, Alpha's body was not yet strong enough to be awakened.
In the following seven hundred years, Jing Yi began to slowly lay out his plans, burying various chess pieces outside the fog.
It is for the day when Jing wakes up again and distortion spreads from Shengguo to the whole world, he will no longer be restricted by various things.
As the black fog spreads, the concentration of distortion will temporarily decrease, meeting the criteria for the tower to reappear.
Now, seven hundred years later, Jingyi has indeed seized the opportunity.
Bai Wu continued to read the contents of the notes, and only the last few paragraphs were left.
"The Well's slumber is also divided into stages. In one stage, the distortion does not dissipate, but spreads at an extremely slow pace. This is also the stage you have experienced after the tower appeared."
"The second stage is absolute sleep. The distortion will completely disappear. Although the well still exists, it will no longer have any impact on the world. Any impact it has caused will also slowly reverse."
"Even if a former friend becomes a monster, he will slowly turn back into a human being after the well falls into absolute sleep."
Bai Wu already knew what he had to do.
Two pieces in total -
First, seal Alpha. Second, let the well fall into an absolute sleep, and never let anyone touch the well.
Alpha has not yet completely awakened the well because Alpha is still afraid of something.
For example, Jing Si. He was afraid that in the Absolute Distortion Era, Jing Si would show even more terrifying growth, and that Jing Si would be another master of the tower.
Jing Si's strength actually surpasses Alpha's before he was sealed.
But during this long sealing process, Alpha also realized a lot of things.
He created replicas of the Seven Sins who had once defeated him.
I also comprehended another kind of power—sequence.
Despite Alpha's enlightenment, he still lacks two primers - Sequence 100,000 Dharmakaya and Sequence 12:00 return.
But even without these two things, perhaps Alpha's control over the two forces of distortion and order has reached an incredible level.
If all the bodies were really gathered together, Alpha's strength would definitely far exceed his strength when fighting against the Lord of the Tower.
The final critical point has arrived, and there is only one page of notes left.
The notes tell Bai Wu what to do, and at the end, also give Bai Wu hints on how to do these things.
Why Alpha is so powerful and how to defeat Alpha.
This is the end of the note, and the last few paragraphs are recorded as follows:
"After our efforts and what we found on the fourth floor, we concluded that the Doomsday puzzle pieces and the Seven Sins weapons are the key to putting the well to sleep."
"Let the well sleep again, and the distortion will slowly melt away."
"But the prerequisite is that someone has to defeat the one who covets the well. That person is my tribe... the Lord of Distortion."
“I can’t kill him completely. He took a different route. But he gained the power of the Order Route that even I can’t completely defeat—Sequence 3: Immortality.”
"He cannot be killed, but he can be suppressed. He can be sealed."
"But this is not something you need to do."
"I have already revealed the method of sealing him to a certain chosen person. Unfortunately, the cause and effect of that child is very complicated, and I cannot predict the final outcome, but because of this, I believe he can complete the task."
"As for you outsiders, what you have to do is to make the well fall into a deep sleep. An absolute deep sleep."
"The Seven Sins weapons and the Doomsday puzzle pieces are made of the same material. They all come from what you saw in the levels above."
"It's just that the Seven Deadly Sins can be created, but once an evil spirit occupies an area, the pieces of the Doomsday puzzle may be automatically generated."
"You need to do two things, create the Seven Sins, and find the Fragment of Doom. Then at the bottom... you will find a way to put the Well to sleep."
In fact, the notes end here.
But then, Bai Wu saw a small piece of paper mixed in it.
This small piece of paper was written in sequential characters, no longer in Shengguo language.
After Bai Wu asked the Tyrant to translate it, he found that it was not written to him, but more like a complaint, more like the self-regret of the Lord of the Tower before the decisive battle:
"The well cannot be destroyed, and the monster cannot be killed. I am not satisfied with this ending. I found a way to make the well fall asleep, and I found a way to seal the Lord of Distortion."
"But in this world... is there really no way to make the well disappear completely and make the Lord of Distortion die completely?"
"Those two most ultimate sequences... We only saw their names on the sequence slabs in the deep layer, but whether they really exist or are as we think is unknown."

(This book will participate in an annual title selection from this month to the middle of next month. This is also a huge exposure opportunity. I know that you don’t like to read the foreshadowing chapters, but if these things are not completed, the book will not be complete. I have tried my best to speed up the pace of this book. In fact, many places have been skipped and glossed over. I hope everyone will be patient. Finally, I beg for monthly tickets. I really only ask for this month. The title will be selected next month. I occupy the main text for a while, and I also hope that readers from various channels can see it. I hope you can contribute to next month’s tickets!)
