– Volume 16, Chapter 3
378. 78th Floor Library of All Things (3)
What is an immortal? What is a transcendental person? How do people’s beliefs come about?
There was also information about him in the library of all things.
Most of the information was no different from what the ghosts had heard, but the ghosts couldn’t fully acquire the information here.
This was because the ghost was not very interested in faith or the transcendent
.
The ghost’s interest was always the sword and the salvation of the destroyed world.
So, among the information the ghost knew, there were some uncertainties.
“Hmm.”
Taesan closed the book.
I searched the library and read the books written about faith and transcendence.
This allowed him to double check what he knew or fill in the blanks.
And more detailed information could be obtained.
“Immortality and Transcendence. A look at the two realms.”
It was a book filled with very complex yet dense information.
[A transcendental person is a person who has gained his own divine name and has his own domain. They are sometimes called gods.]
[In contrast, immortals are those who do not have their own god name. They do not have an area of jurisdiction.
It can be said that he is free enough to rise to the position of an immortal with only his own strength, but from the perspective of the universe,
it does not have a great influence.] . Even in the entire universe, there are not many cases where an immortal gains his or her domain and becomes a perfect transcendent
. It was what the ghost had said.
But after that, it was the first time I had heard of it.
[It is also possible to escape the realm of mortality by gathering people’s faith. However, it is unstable and limited.]
Taesan also experienced this.
He was worshiped by all and surpassed mortal status.
Depending on the quality and quantity of worship, it may also be possible to ascend to the level of a transcendental being. In a way, the world you rule is also a kind of domain.
“It could be the path the Green Witch was looking for.”
The green witch wanted to become a transcendentalist.
people’s faith.
This could be one of the ways she wishes.
The moment I thought that, a voice rang in my head.
[That’s not it. Hey.]
A soft and gentle voice.
After a moment of hesitation, Taesan realized who the owner of the voice was.
“You green witch.”
[You remember.]
Laughter was heard.
Taesan returned her gaze to the book.
“Were you able to speak?”
[A simple conversation is possible. Originally, I was only going to watch it, but it seemed like it was necessary to correct your thoughts, so I started talking to you.]
The witch continued her conversation softly.
[What you think is the correct answer. If you receive more than a certain level of faith, you will surely be able to ascend to the level of transcendence, even temporarily. but hey Haven’t you experienced it too? It is very precarious to be
seated like that .]
“I know.”
When Taesan said he was leaving, people despaired.
And the moment that emotion burst out, Taesan took a strong load.
It was to the extent that Taesan’s rank shook, at least momentarily.
[It is possible to ascend to the transcendental position by faith, but it cannot be regarded as an exclusive position. All humans die and disappear. The same goes for faith. As generations pass, faith gradually weakens and eventually loses its power
. That’s not what I want.]
The witch said quietly. There was heat in his voice.
[A place where no one can interfere, where no one can interfere, where you can be unshakable under any circumstances, where you can shine forever, refusing even the influence of time… I want that kind of place.] “Is that so
. ”
Come to think of it, as an immortal, there was no way she didn’t know about faith.
What she wanted
was a place higher than the precarious seat created by her faith.
“It is unfortunate.”
[No. But now, unlike before, there is hope.”
The witch said in an excited voice.
[You are truly amazing. Although it is temporary, it has reached the same level as me. Even in such a short time.]
It wasn’t long before the witch met Taesan.
Taesan had meanwhile reached the borderline
and transcended mortality. It was an inexplicable rate of growth. Most of the strong people
spent their entire lives unable to cross the boundary.
The reason why the emperor went crazy over the idea of divine blood and resorted to trickery was because it was so difficult to cross the boundary.
[If it’s you, maybe…]
Of course, it’s still a long way off.
Since it was a position he had risen through faith,
he was not a perfect immortal, and the position of transcendence
was even farther away.
But there were plenty of possibilities.
[I will continue to watch. let me cheer you on Cheer up.]
After that voice, the green witch disappeared.
The ghost let out a belated breath.
[Whoa. It’s hard.]
“What’s wrong?”
[Because the presence of an immortal is not something that can be easily overcome? You’re weird.]
grumbled the ghost.
It seemed that he used all his leeway to protect himself
under the pressure of the green witch’s presence .
Taishan continued to read information about gods and gods.
Overall, it was not much different from what the Transcendentalists told Taesan.
Seeing him calmly accumulating knowledge, the ghost muttered with a tired face.
[Are you not dizzy? I can’t read it because I’m having a hard time.]
There were some things the ghost wasn’t interested in, but there were also things it couldn’t read.
Every time I read books about old gods and gods, my mind was burdened as if I wasn’t qualified to accept any more information than this.
But Taesan didn’t show any signs of that.
“There is no such thing.”
I didn’t feel any strain on my mind.
Taesan calmly read the book, and the ghost clucked his tongue.
As soon as he was about to organize things, a phrase came into Taesan’s eyes.
[A transcendental person governs a realm worthy of his/her divine name, and no one can intervene in that realm.]
As written in this book, a transcendental person who has a domain is not affected by anything.
Even Tae-san, who returned to the past by turning back time, could not escape the gaze of the gods.
But what was really interesting was what followed.
[However, it is almost impossible for even these gods to interfere with time and influence the flow. The time
they can intervene is local and limited.]
‘Is it impossible to interfere with time?’
However, Urboros’s bezoar sent Taesan back to the past.
‘How did you get something like this?’
Lee Tae-yeon also hid information about the stone.
So even Taesan didn’t know how she got it.
I was curious about it, but it was impossible unless I prayed for God’s help.
Taesan got up from his seat.
[what. Are you done with business already?]
“No way.”
There were still many questions.
However, since Han did not exist, there was no need to rush into gaining knowledge.
First of all, I was thinking of organizing the floors first.
Taishan knew quite a bit about the 78th floor.
‘Dear Goddess. Where Levinenov settled.’
Did Einzhar really find his goddess?
Chances are high, but I wasn’t sure.
It was because of the location of the goddess.
The place where Levinenov settled is the twenty-fourth secret room.
In other words, this meant that there were over twenty-four secret rooms.
‘A floor with so many secret rooms.’
Taesan
returned to where Jorge was.
Jorge opened his mouth without taking his eyes off the book.
“Did you find the book?”
“Here it is.”
Taesan handed me a book.
It was a book that I roughly picked up on my way back.
Jorge glanced over and then returned to the book.
“This is a book I read. Bring me another book.”
“okay.”
Taesan moved his body.
But it didn’t go far.
He rummaged through the nearby bookcases and fidgeted with the books.
Jorge frowned and said, as if that appearance was annoying.
“Tell me just in case. I have read all the books around here. It’s not the layer that aims for a change of thinking, so stop thinking nonsense.”
Jorge must have read most of the books in the library.
However, there were many cases where the lamp was dark,
and a nearby book was brought.
As the labyrinth requires a lot of ability, there were those who demanded a change of thinking, but Jorge denied that possibility.
It was no use looking around any longer, but Taesan continued to circle around Jorge.
Jorge clicked his tongue and cut off his interest.
Taesan, who was browsing the bookshelf for a while, asked Jorge.
“There is a lot of information here, but
there is no specific information about gods and ancient gods.”
There are descriptions of realms and powers, but detailed descriptions of the gods. In other words, what kind of place is the drinking god? What kind of power does Mary, the god of choice, wield? What kind of existence is the gosin? There was no such thing as a detailed explanation.
This is the library of all things. All the information the God of Knowledge knows is here.
However, it was one of two things that I couldn’t see.
Taesan couldn’t find it.
Or, it meant that it was sealed somewhere deep here.
“Is that the information you are curious about?”
Jorge frowned.
“There is a lot of knowledge here… but there is also knowledge that people without qualifications cannot acquire.”
One of them was the information about gods and ancient gods that Taesan wanted.
And that’s why there are books that even Jorge can’t access. “If you wish
, prove your qualifications for that knowledge .
And find out for yourself. That is Metis-sama’s will.”
If you want knowledge, show the ability to match it.
Taesan thought so.
“found.”
Taesan murmured softly and put the book deep into the bookcase.
Kurleung!
The bookshelf shook.
With a loud sound, the bookshelf began to move slowly.
The bookshelf moved like that created an empty space.
[Huh?]
“…What?”
Both the Ghost and Jorge looked away in surprise.
A passage was visible beyond the space.
[You found the first secret room.]
[Initial discovery bonus]
[Health + 500]
[Mana + 300]
[Magic + 50]
[What? Was there a secret room on this floor?]
“Didn’t you know?”
[Of course I didn’t know. I thought it wasn’t there because even scouting didn’t come up with anything…]
The ghost didn’t know that there was a secret room on the 78th floor.
As such, his shock was great.
[How on earth…]
“Because I heard something.”
Lee Tae-yeon stayed on the 78th floor for a long time
.
In the meantime, she had told me a lot of trivial, trivial things that didn’t even make me curious.
How did Taesan, who was in Easy Mode in the first place, know that the room with Levinenov was the 24th secret room? The reason was simple.
It was because while staying in the library of all things, Lee Tae-yeon discovered more than 24 secret rooms and shared the information with the community.
