Mountain God Li opened his mouth and pecked the elder up. He raised his head and swallowed him. Then, he flapped his wings and transformed into a red light to escape into the distance.
Qin Mu was stunned. He saw the two of them chatting and thought that there was really a rule of people serving the heavenly gods when they reached old age. He couldn't stop them in time.
He followed that Mountain God Li, who flew for several thousand miles. When he came to a divine mountain, he retracted his wings and landed. He suddenly turned his head back and only then did he see Qin Mu. He hurriedly said, "This senior brother, greetings!"
Qin Mu gently nodded and said, "Mountain God Li, I saw you eating someone just now, but that person was chatting happily with you. What's the reason for that?"
Mountain God Li smiled and said, "Senior Brother, are you from outside? No wonder you don't know the rules here. The southern heavens are a land of civilization and etiquette, a place where Celestial Venerable Huo teaches. The gods of the southern heavens live in harmony with the races of the world. The people of this world need us for good weather and a bountiful harvest. We also need to eat. Thus, there's a rule. Any normal person who reaches 60 years old is considered a dead person and has to go to the temple to worship the gods. "
Qin Mu asked, "Celestial Venerable Huo made this rule?"
Mountain God Li said, "Yes. Southern Heaven is a land of civilization. It's not as vulgar and barbaric as Western Heaven and Northern Heaven. It's much better than Eastern Heaven. "
Qin Mu asked again, "What about divine arts practitioners? The oldest divine arts practitioners of the human race can live up to eight hundred years old. "
"If divine arts practitioners can't become gods at 700 years old, they have to enter the temple to worship the gods."
Mountain God Li smiled and said, "If they become gods, they will be on the same level as us and call each other senior brothers. However, there aren't many divine arts practitioners in the territory under my jurisdiction, so I can only eat once every year. Senior Brother, you came at a bad time. There aren't any divine arts practitioners at 700 years old recently. Otherwise, I would have invited you. "
Qin Mu frowned and said, "The whole of Southern Heaven has this rule?"
Mountain God Li said, "It's all the same. Look at Southern Heaven, it's peaceful. Humans and gods live in harmony. Half-gods and lifeforms after the beginning don't kill each other. Isn't it a pure land? "
Qin Mu smiled faintly and said, "How can the Pure Land eat people? By doing this, Celestial Venerable Huo is eating people without spitting out their bones, making them willingly die. "
Mountain God Li said seriously, "Senior apprentice-brother, you are wrong. It is reasonable for us to eat people. Let me ask, can I eat you? Then we'll eat. "
Qin Mu asked, "What if that person says no? Are you going to stop eating? "
Mountain God Li laughed and said, "Senior martial brother, you are so naive and cute! We're just asking out of courtesy. If we're rejected, we'll still have to eat. "
Dragon Unicorn couldn't help but ask, "What about the gods of the human race? Will the human god tolerate you eating his people? "
Mountain God Li smiled and said, "Senior martial brother, the gods of the human race are not humans! How high level were the gods? Wouldn't it be a joke if word got out that he still regarded himself as a human after becoming a god? Divine arts practitioners train hard their entire lives, refining their qi, and cultivating diligently to become gods that are high above! If you tell the gods of the human race that you are still humans, they will be angered to death and scold you for not being a nun! "
Qin Mu's murderous intent rose, but it soon dissipated.
The whole of Southern Heaven was like this, so killing Mountain God Li didn't make a difference.
Killing Mountain God Li would only cause more disasters to befall the place that Mountain God Li was guarding. More people would die.
"The Pure Land created by Celestial Venerable Huo, hehe …"
He left with Dragon Unicorn and Yan 'er. Mountain God Li watched him leave and frowned. "What a weird person, he doesn't know any manners! Barbarian from another place! "
Qin Mu traveled around Southern Heaven and saw that it was an orderly primitive society. People slashed and burned, and divine arts practitioners lived in seclusion deep in the mountains. They didn't help ordinary people.
The gods of the human race were high above, and they called the half-gods brothers. They thought that after becoming gods, they were no longer of the same race as humans. If they were asked to fight for the human race and die for the mortals, they would only laugh at their stupidity.
They would not do such a thing. They wore bright and beautiful clothes, rode in gorgeous carriages, and rushed to attend a banquet with the gods among the demigods. The people they socialized with were also gods. They talked and laughed, and they followed the almost rigid etiquette.
Southern Heaven was a place of etiquette.
Qin Mu traveled there and saw many sects. They were sects built by the gods of Southern Heaven, and they were almost the same as Yankang back in the day.
However, back in the day, Yankang had many sects, and they controlled the lives and fates of mortals. They controlled the countries of the mortal world to conquer and seize land.
The sects of Southern Heaven, on the other hand, respected each other and didn't offend each other.
It was peaceful here, so peaceful that it was like a pool of stagnant water.
Ordinary people could only be ordinary people for the rest of their lives, and their descendants could only be ordinary people. They would never have the chance to become outstanding!
What ambitions? What ideals? What studying Dao skills and divine arts to benefit the people? All of that was just a dream!
Furthermore, no one thought that way, and no one did that.
It was a world that was so peaceful that it was suffocating.
