Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

Geoffrey took a few steps forward, carefully studying the relief sculpture on the platform.

The relief of the Snake Spirit King was extremely intricate, but something caught Geoffrey's eyes.

It seemed some parts of the carving were smelted, as though someone had tried to burn them.

Did someone climb to the top of the pillar to destroy the relief before?

The pillar was undoubtedly very solid. Geoffrey wouldn't have been able to damage it, even if he tried.

Back when he was at the foot of the pillar, he had asked Ziya to give it a try, but even Ziya couldn't leave a mark on the pillar.

Except for these strangely burnt parts, there was nothing exquisite about the relief.

Geoffrey frowned in disappointment.

It hadn't been easy for him to climb all this way, yet the journey seemed fruitless.

At the very least, he had helped the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord connect the sword to the eleventh stair.

An Other Shore Token on the eleventh stair was supposedly quite decent; however it was still connected to a red light beam like before. This meant it was surely inferior compared to the Other Shore Tokens on the last ten stairs.

'If I drill a square hole here and insert the black stone in it, will it work?"

Geoffrey's eyes flashed excitedly as he came up with this bold idea.

But he dismissed the idea just as quickly as he hatched it.

The pillar was too solid. There was no possible way he'd be able to dig a hole in it!

'What if I asked Ziya for help...'

It had taken him several months to climb to the top of the pillar, which meant it'd take several more months to go down. Thus, it would take him nearly a year to make a round trip.

As he pondered over this, he inadvertently walked to the center of the platform, where the Snake Spirit King's eyes lay.

Without even looking where he was going, Geoffrey accidentally stepped right on the Snake Spirit King's eyes. Then, the sky began to stir, as though it was unsettled.

Initially, the sky of the main world was as dark as a moonless night.

Whenever he looked up, the sky was always pitch black.

But the instant Geoffrey stepped on the Snake Spirit King's eyes, he noticed a huge courtyard floating nearby.
