Chapter 12: The Gate of Life

  Under the stone tower, the storm is still roaring.

  On the seventh floor of the tower, Aaron is facing the most bizarre test since he awakened.

  It is a space composed entirely of words, with countless three-dimensional characters streaking across the sky like meteors, constantly reorganizing, breaking, and regenerating. In this silent space, every thought may trigger a rune storm and distort reality.

  And now, Aaron must construct his own "Oath Core" in this nameless context.

  "The heart core of the oath-taker is the essential statement constructed by the soul and language." The voice of the shadow mentor echoed in his ears.

  "Only by constructing a complete, stable "Oath Language" that can cross the boundaries of cognition can you truly embark on the path of the soul speaker."

  Aaron stood in the virtual sea of ??characters, his eyes calm but sharp.

  He understood that this was the key to the second stage of the "Soul Interference" - the Gate of Life.

  If the construction fails, not only will he be expelled from the memorial tower, but he will also become a "mute soul" due to the collapse of his heart core, and will never be able to touch any rune system again.

  "I must... construct my own oath."

  Aaron closed his eyes, and his mind flashed with the bits and pieces of his journey.

  He was ostracized in the apprentice area when he first awakened his soul;

  He activated the ancient coin for the first time and embarked on a fate intertwined with blood and runes;

  Faced with three choices of fate, he chose the loneliest, most dangerous, and closest to the soul - becoming a "soul sacrificer".

  He opened his mouth and whispered softly:

  "My name is Aaron Brecht"

  In the character void, thousands of words began to tremble.

  "I am not born to inherit the old laws,

  My soul is not bound by the theorem;

  My ambition is in the form of language."

  Boom!

  The entire character space suddenly shrank, and those wandering runes seemed to have found an anchor point and gathered into Aaron's body.

  A "core of the oath" interwoven with gold and silver condensed in his chest, slowly blending into the wheel of life and soul, becoming the fourth ring of the seal.

  If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

  The name of the seal is:

  "The oath of the heart: the immortal truth."

  When he opened his eyes again, he was already at the top of the tower.

  The sky was clear, and the ancient astronomical ritual was slowly rotating. It was the "rune celestial instrument" of the old era, which was only opened by those who were truly recorded by fate.

  Jing Chang stood aside, with a rare look of relief in his eyes: "You are the first beginner to build the oath core without any mentor's help."

  "Do you know what this means?"

  Aaron replied calmly: "I know, I can't turn back."

  "To be more precise," Jing Chang said slowly, "you have become a new 'language node' in the soul agreement chain."

  "From now on, your every move may be absorbed, inverted, and derived by the entire system, and finally feed back to the entire soul world."

  Aaron understood the weight of this sentence.

  This not only means responsibility, but also means that he has become part of the "language origin structure". His destiny is to build a new generation of soul language logic.

  At this moment, an old man in a feather-patterned robe quietly appeared.

  "This is the whisper messenger of the 'Constructor Council'." Jing Chang introduced, "They represent the high-level soul system and hope to meet you."

  The old man's eyes were gentle, but with an irresistible majesty: "Aaron Brecht, from today on, your name will be recorded in the 'New Oath Record' and you will become the only one - the soul oath reconstruction."

  "And you will also be qualified to enter the soul core library and access the 'forbidden oath page'."

  Aaron's heart was shocked.

  Forbidden oath page - that is the fragment of an ancient book that only the fifth-level soul controller is qualified to read. It is said that it records the failed experiment records of the earliest generation of "language gods".

  "Why me?" He couldn't help asking.

  "Because the language structure in your body does not belong to the current system." The whisperer said in a deep voice, "It evolved independently."

  This sentence made Aaron's back cold.

  This means that -

  He has been an "outlier" in the entire soul system from the beginning.

  It may even be that he is not "selected", but "chosen a language branch that should not exist".

  "If you continue to go on, you will gradually break away from the existing rules and become another form of language."

  Aaron looked down at the runes on his palm, and after a moment of silence, he said:

  "I was not born to obey."

  Three days later, the academy held a special "Oath Induction Ceremony" for Aaron.

  It was an extremely rare ritual, exclusive to "language reconstructors".

  The ceremony was held in the "Silent Court" - it was the most mysterious forbidden field in the soul world. The entire ceremony could not make any sound, and everything was carried out by the language will constructed in the soul.

  When Aaron stepped into the "Silent Court", the three-layer oath floating bridge in the void unfolded one by one, and he had to rely on the power of "Oath of Life" to step over them one by one.

  And every step was a test of his "consistency of language and soul".

  In the first stage, he awakened the soul inscription wheel with the "Oath of the Heart of Language" and successfully entered the first level.

  In the second stage, he mobilized the assistance of the "Old Scroll Relics" to weave the fragments of ancient language into a pass language symbol and stepped into the middle level.

  And in the third stage, there was an unexpected variable-

  When he took that step, a figure appeared in the void:

  It was a shadow he had never seen before, but was extremely familiar with.

  The other party also had the same "Oath Core" as him, and even the soul seal was exactly the same.

  "Who are you?" Aaron asked in a low voice.

  The figure did not speak, but just stretched out his hand coldly and spoke word by word:

  "I am another version of the 'real language'."

  Boom-

  The void collapsed, the oath floating bridge turned into countless broken symbols, and Aaron was pulled into the abyss.

  This is the final test of the "Gate of Life Oath".

  He must fight with another self.

  Only by winning can he leave his true position in the "language chain".
