"This is?" Zhu Minglang realized that the mysterious melody in the zither hall had disappeared.
Li Yunzi took down the zither string and combined it with the silver sword in her hand before disappearing into her sleeve. It was as though the string did not exist, but Li Yunzi's body exuded a hint of immortal charm. Her already peerless beauty seemed to be dyed with a mysterious color. She did not seem like an otherworldly transcendence that the mortal world should have.
There seemed to be ripples in her eyes. They were bright and beautiful. Even though she was in this city-state and on this bloody battlefield, it was still difficult to hide her temperament that did not fit in with the mortal world.
It was as if everything she had done was just a trial in the mortal world. Whether it was hardship, pain, anger, or loss, once the opportunity came, she would shed this mortal body and ascend to become an immortal.
At that moment, Zhu Minglang felt that Li Yunzi's temperament was ethereal. She was clearly close, but it was like a star in the night sky. This reminded Zhu Minglang of what Zhu Xuehen had said to him.
Could it be that she really was a fairy that had descended to the mortal world?
"This is the foundation of my Life Soul. When I was born, it was like a silk rope wrapped around my wrist … but I no longer remember what it is or what it's used for. My grandmother told me that I had to find this thing. It was hidden in Mother's zither string, "said Li Yunzi.
"So, the reason God's Grace appeared in this Mountain Range City-State is because of it?" Zhu Minglang asked.
The city-state was a group of heretical cultivators. What did they do to obtain the grace of God that was born in the Dragon Gate? In other words, the grace of God was bestowed on Li Yunzi.
"Perhaps Mother was once a God who was reluctant to part with the mortal world. She used her zither string to nourish the foundation of my Life Soul. This way, it's equivalent to her passing on her strength to me …" said Li Yunzi.
Ancestral Dragon Shenji. So she was a descendant of a true God. For some reason, Zhu Minglang felt a little excited.
"Does that mean that in the future, our children won't have to cultivate so hard to transcend the tribulations and will be born with a demigod Life Providence?" Zhu Minglang said in all seriousness.
"…" Li Yunzi suddenly didn't want to chat with Zhu Minglang anymore.
His skin was getting thicker and thicker!
"By the way, are there really other gods in the Polar Court Continent?" After Zhu Minglang finished his joke, he immediately changed the topic. It did not affect his glorious image in front of Li Yunzi at all.
"There is, but at our level, it's still hard to come into contact with them. The world's metamorphosis is most likely the will of our gods, "said Li Yunzi.
Li Yunzi did not know much. She was also trying to figure it out.
Now that she had regained the source of her Life Spirit, her cultivation path would be smoother.
There were many things that her grandmother did not explain clearly. In fact, Li Yunzi was not completely sure if her mother was a god.
Li Yunzi had a lot of doubts about her background. She felt that there was a mystery shrouding her, but it also seemed to be related to the Dragon Gate …
Who had opened the World Dragon Gate?
An old grandmother?
Or someone from Li Chuan?
Was this person also a god?
Li Yunzi told Zhu Minglang about her confusion.
Zhu Minglang had also wondered why the Dragon Gate had coincidentally appeared in Li Chuan.
And in this Barren Mountain City-State, there was such an ancient ruin. Apart from the Stone Temple and the Zither Temple, there were many other ancient temples. Each of them seemed to have a very long history, and each of them seemed to have a period of glory. What exactly did they represent?
The Wu Clan of the Hill City-State was a group of traitors.
They had obviously taken the ancient ruin for themselves and built the city-state around it. The Hill City-State had probably been built in the past 20 years. Its history was far less than that of the Ancestral Dragon City-State.
They had used the afterglow of the God of the Past to gradually strengthen themselves. They had been waiting for the Dragon Gate to arrive, preparing to turn the tables and become the overlord of the Polar Court Continent.
The power that the Hill City-State had displayed was close to that of a major power.
Every major power in the Polar Court Continent had accumulated over a long period of time. Most of them had existed for thousands of years and had never declined.
The small Hill City-State had caught up to them in a short period of time. The speed of their improvement and the extent of their expansion were truly frightening. If they were given a few more years, they would be unstoppable!
…
The sky gradually darkened. Zhu Minglang and Li Yunzi walked around the ancient ruin casually.
They had come and gone in a hurry. Zhu Minglang had only seen the guqin hall, the stone corridor, and the ground garden. He had not been to any other places. The ancient ruin was actually very big. Although most of it had signs of decay, one could still see its former glory. It was as if this was a garden of all the gods. Countless people had come here to worship …
As they walked, Zhu Minglang saw a red temple. There was a statue of a god in the temple. He looked gentle and calm as he stood there. His expression was serene. However, there was a person prostrating at his feet. That person was humbly kissing the instep of the god's foot.
This kind of kneeling was rare. Zhu Minglang did not understand why this worshipper of the god was willing to kiss him. It was not as if he was a goddess of war with perfect feet like Li Yunzi.
"There are some ancient words written here." Li Yunzi pointed at a clear stream in front of them.
The stream flowed past a stone platform that would not fade. There were rows of words written on the stone platform. The ripples of the clear stream seemed to give these words a special glow. They twisted mysteriously in the ripples of the water.
"Can you understand them?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"Aren't these the words that we use?" Li Yunzi raised her delicate eyebrows and said.
"Oh, oh. I thought they were some godly writings or something that mortals could not understand on purpose. Our ancient gods do not like to play games." Zhu Minglang walked closer to take a look. He realized that the words were indeed very similar. It was just that the handwriting was a little strange.
"It says that every star in the sky represents a god. The brighter the star, the stronger the god." Li Yunzi softly read the words written on the stone platform. Her beautiful face was gradually filled with astonishment.
"Billions of spirit cultivators flow like a river. In the end, they all flow into one place. That place is the Dragon Gate."
"The Dragon Gate selects gods from the strong spirit cultivators from all over the world. Every time a new god is added to the continent, its spirit civilization will increase by a level. Every newly conferred god will also have their divine light reflected in the sky …"
After reading this sentence, Li Yunzi could not help but look at Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Minglang also looked at her.
Then, the two of them looked at the night sky almost at the same time.
The sky was cold, clear, and clean. The stars were like gems of different colors quietly spread out in the long night sky. They were magnificent and varied. There were countless of them. Some of their radiance was weak, while others were dazzling and eye-catching …
Every god's radiance would be reflected in the sky???
Zhu Minglang had never seen a god. He had also once suspected that there were no gods in the world.
But what he did not expect was that every night in the night sky that he could see when he looked up, every shining star represented a god!
Each star represented a god????
How many gods were there in this world?!
