'It seems that the higher I climb up, the stronger the Other Shore Tokens are at the other end of the light, ' Geoffrey thought.
Then again, he had long confirmed such a theory.
However, a distinct boundary between the steps formed by the pages did not previously exist. He only knew that the Other Shore Tokens were always better in the next page.
Now that there was a distinct boundary, his interest naturally increased a lot.
He squatted on the side of the page and pointed towards the red light.
The moment he touched the red light, he saw a long, simple sword.
A layer of white cloth wrapped around the hilt of the sword, and it appeared worn down.
It also had a rough and dented blade with thin cracks.
Despite the sword's flaws, surprisingly, it emitted great energy all the time!
"Where is this sword located? It appears to be inside a tower…"
Then, he moved his fingers back and forth along the red light so he could adjust the angle of sight.
The inside of the tower was quite empty, but many Other Shore Tokens were neatly hung up on the wall.
"Is this a cultivation tower of some civilization?"
He had noticed before that there were some Other Shore Tokens placed with the other tokens in an orderly fashion.
Generally speaking, some civilizations and forces collected the Other Shore Tokens for their disciples to use.
This tower was no exception.
But compared to what he had observed before, there was more variety of Other Shore Tokens in this place.
While he observed the tower, the old man at the top of the tower suddenly saw something strange. At that moment, he dashed and went inside the tower.
Since he was connected to the Mysterious Yellow Tower, he could notice everything happening inside the tower as soon as it occurred.
For instance, he sensed that someone was observing the situation inside the tower just now.
The old man's movement also caught the attention of the young man in cyan robes. In the blink of an eye, the young man in cyan also rushed to the old man's side.
"What's wrong? Did anything happen?" the young man in cyan asked.
The old man looked around and said in a grave voice, "Someone is observing the Mysterious Yellow Tower."
The young man in cyan also followed the old man's gaze and smiled, "Did you have an illusion? Today is not the day to ring the bell. Why... "
"Shut up!" the old man scolded sternly.
The old man was usually quite amiable, while the young man was rather rude in front of him. However, the old man rarely scolded him in such a harsh tone.
The young man knew that something was wrong, so he shut his mouth.
Meanwhile, the old man proceeded to go around the thirty-first and thirty-second floors of the Mysterious Yellow Tower. Finally, he stopped in the middle of the thirty-third floor and looked at the sword inside it.
It was the Lone Sword.
It was an Other Shore Token with little information, so it was hard to evaluate its grade.
Furthermore, no one knew who had used it.
Neither did anyone know what kind of abilities it had.
The only thing that was clear about it was that one could merge with it with the Truth of Eternal Sword Intent.
Unfortunately, no one knew how to use it after the merge.
For example, the old man had fused with the sword with his unique talent, but he still could not use it. It seemed that it was just an ordinary sword.
Still, the old man did not believe that it was.
In the end, he placed the Lone Sword in the Mysterious Yellow Tower and waited for someone who could make use of it.
After a while of silence, his voice filled the floor.
"Here!" he said in a trembling voice.
On the other hand, the mysterious observer just stared at the sword shamelessly without even bothering to hide his gaze.
The young man in cyan robes looked at the Lone Sword for a while.
He had also tried to use the weapon, but like the old man, he had failed.
"Could it be that there is something in the sword? Maybe there is a soul trapped inside? Or even a Treacherous Being!"
The young man in cyan robes carefully examined the sword and even sniffed it a little, but he did not sense anything strange.
"No…" the old man muttered. "The mysterious presence came from the other side of the Other Shore Token!" he explained.
The young man's eyes narrowed in doubt at the old man's words. "That seems odd…
Are you sure?" he asked. "Yes!" said the old man.
