In the quiet courtyard, two figures faced each other and just stared at each other.
Chen Heng just sat there, staring at Shi Long with his dark golden eyes.
To be honest, being stared at by him like this would give people a tremendous amount of pressure.
That kind of pressure was unprecedentedly strong. If it was just an ordinary person, perhaps just standing there would make them feel like their soul was collapsing.
Under this sort of gaze, Shi Long felt quite terrible. He could feel a terrifying pressure, making him feel as if he was going to suffocate.
Sensing this feeling, he deeply breathed in and finally said, "That's right, the opportunity to become a god …
"In the past eras, our world once underwent a huge change …"
"During that upheaval, something unexpected happened to our world …"
"Unexpected?"
Chen Heng asked.
"That's right, a very serious accident …"
Shi Long nodded and continued, "In the records of the Druidic Order, there are records of that upheaval."
"It's said that on that day, another world attacked from the void and fused with the World of Gods …
"That was a very large and powerful world, and the experts there were not inferior to gods at all …
"That world was the Abyss …"
As Shi Long spoke, Chen Heng felt quite startled.
There were indeed records of the Abyss in the World of Gods.
At the start, he had not been too surprised.
After all, a powerful world like the World of Gods would have many different worlds and small secret realms.
Those secret realms could be seen as small worlds that revolved around the World of Gods and relied on the World of Gods to exist.
These secret planes could be seen as small worlds that revolved around the World of Gods and relied on it to exist.
Chen Heng had thought that the Abyss would be one of them.
However, from what Shi Long had said, it seemed that the Abyss was not a small world from the World of Gods but an outsider.
However, from what Shi Long had said, the so-called Abyss was not a minor world of the World of Gods, but a complete outsider.
In fact, its strength far surpassed what he had expected, and it could be compared to the World of Gods.
This greatly surpassed Chen Heng's expectations.
However, at the same time, Chen Heng recalled some memories.
When he had first entered the World of Gods from the void, he seemed to have seen such a scene.
It was a unique and terrifying scene.
In the void, two sun-like stars intertwined with each other, and more than half of their bodies fused together.
The two worlds had become one and were about to fuse.
From the looks of it, those two worlds should be the World of Gods and the Abyss World.
From Shi Long's words, the reason why the gods of this world had fallen silent seemed to be related to the fusion of the two worlds.
In that moment, many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind.
Meanwhile, Shi Long was still speaking, recounting what had happened back then.
"At that time, a world called the Abyss descended into the World of Gods, and then the mutation happened …" Leylin sighed.
He stood there and looked at Chen Heng as he said, "Within the Abyssal World, there are many demons, and the most powerful ones are called the Demon Rulers. They are the most powerful demons.
"The power of the Fiend Sovereign is not inferior to that of the gods. His strength has reached a terrifying level."
"Following this, the two worlds started to go to war.
"After fighting for countless years, the ground started to shatter and all life was lost. Even the two worlds were on the verge of collapse …
"The Origins of the two worlds were damaged, which then caused a deep impact, causing the heavily injured gods to fall into a deep slumber …"
"After that, after countless years, the world slowly recovered and returned to the state it is now …"
"Now, because of the world's recovery, the originally dormant gods will return once more, once again returning to this world."
Shi Long stood there and looked at Chen Heng as he spoke.
"That sounds quite good …"
Sitting in his seat, Chen Heng listened to Shi Long's words and nodded, "However, what does this have to do with the opportunity you were talking about?"
"Of course it does …"
Shi Long nodded and smiled as he said, "In this world, not everything can be done in a short period of time …
"The same goes for the return of the gods.
"Even though the world has returned and the gods have returned, the returning gods will no longer be the powerful existences they once were.
"After returning, their power will fall to the bottom, reaching an extremely weak level …"
"If I can take this opportunity to obtain the divinity left behind by the gods, I will have a new chance to become a member of the gods in the future and become a new god …"
"This is the opportunity I was talking about …"
Hearing this, Chen Heng fell silent for a moment and sank into his thoughts.
It had to be said that everything Shi Long had said was a secret.
Moreover, it seemed to be somewhat believable.
He thought for a moment before continuing, "What can I obtain by working together with you?
"What do you want?"
What we want is actually quite simple … "
Standing there, hearing Chen Heng's words, Shi Long let out a sigh of relief.
Within the quiet courtyard, the two of them continued to talk.
Only after a long time did Shi Long walk out of the courtyard and hurriedly leave.
When he left, even though he hid it very well, it was still possible to see the joy on his face.
From the looks of it, he had gained a lot from today's meeting.
Within the manor, watching Shi Long leave, Chen Heng sat there by himself and thought to himself.
The information that Shi Long had just told him was still reverberating in his mind.
"The God of Nature …"
Thinking back to those words, he could not help but smile.
As expected.
Just like the Dusk Church, the reason why the Church of Nature had been so active and had even taken the initiative to meet with Chen Heng was because they had a goal.
Their goal was none other than the God they believed in, the legendary God of Nature who had fallen into eternal silence a long time ago.
For the Druidic Order, their highest goal was to awaken the slumbering God of Nature and allow him to descend upon this world once more.
Honestly speaking, this goal was quite difficult.
After all, compared to the other churches, the Church of Nature was quite weak and could not provide enough power to awaken the Nature God.
On the other hand, the Nature God's condition was much worse than that of the other gods.
Even though he had also fallen into slumber, the other gods could still maintain their instincts and give their believers divine power.
However, the Nature God's instincts had almost completely disappeared, and it was difficult for even his believers to sense him.
Under such circumstances, it would be much more difficult for the Nature God to awaken than for the other gods, and he would need even more power.
It was because of this that the Church of Nature had taken the initiative to find Chen Heng, hoping to cooperate with him.
Perhaps after discovering the battle between Chen Heng and the Dusk Church, they had already made up their minds.
Of course, Chen Heng did not mind.
It was just that they each took what they needed.
It just so happened that the Church of Nature had what he needed.
As for the Church of Nature's promises, including the promise that after the Nature God awakened, they would help him obtain a Divinity, Chen Heng did not care much.
This was something that was not even close to being true.
The Nature God had not awakened yet, and the Church of Nature still needed Chen Heng's help, so they naturally made all the promises they could.
However, once the Nature God awakened, the situation would be different.
When that time came, whether or not the revived Nature God would acknowledge their promise was a big question.
Moreover, Chen Heng still strongly doubted what they said about obtaining a god's Divinity and becoming a new god was.
From Chen Heng's understanding, a god's Divinity was the result of the god's own cultivation, and it was the condensation of their blood and sweat.
Could such a thing really be inherited by others?
Moreover, even if it could be inherited, could it be guaranteed that one would not be affected by the god and become a clone of that god?
Chen Heng felt very doubtful.
From the very start, he had not been interested in this.
However, even though he was not interested in these promises, he was interested in the others.
Even though they had long since declined, the Church of Nature was still a true god's church, and there were many good things within them.
Some of them just so happened to be things that Chen Heng needed.
For example, the records that the Church of Nature had accumulated over the years, as well as the various treasures within them.
There was also the extraordinary legacy that Chen Heng valued the most, which was for those with Two Rings and above.
A long time ago, Chen Heng had surpassed this world's Two Rings and reached an even higher level.
It was just that his power did not come from his own cultivation but from the nourishment of his divine power and his divinity.
Due to the stimulation and nourishment of the divine power, his own life level was gradually increasing. Hence, changes were slowly taking place and he was continuously improving.
This kind of power came very quickly and easily, and the speed at which he rose was something that the past Chen Heng could not even imagine.
However, it was because of this speed that Chen Heng was currently in such a difficult situation.
Even though he was powerful, let alone someone with a Third Ring or Fourth Ring in the World of Gods, even someone at a higher level could not compare to him.
However, he did not know anything about his current level or situation.
This was the flaw of not having a system.
Without the legacy of extraordinary power, Chen Heng did not know where he should go, which was why he was in such an awkward situation.
Now, the Church of Nature had taken the initiative to get close to him, giving Chen Heng an opportunity.
Compared to the other churches in this world, even though the Church of Nature had long since declined, it was still a church with a true god.
In the past, it had been glorious, and it was not inferior to those powerful churches.
In a church like this, there would definitely be a legacy of the past.
These legacies could make up for Chen Heng's system and give him a clear understanding of his current situation.
This was good news.
Compared to these things, even though the other things in the Church of Nature were also quite important, to Chen Heng, they were not that important.
After all, at his current level, those ordinary treasures did not have much value.
Not to mention that his doppelganger had found a secret realm left behind by a god at the moment.
Within that secret realm, there were traces and treasures left behind by many experts.
They were much more valuable than the things in the Church of Nature.
With these things, Chen Heng naturally did not care too much about the things in the Church of Nature.
While Chen Heng was thinking to himself, Shi Long had already left Chen Heng's manor and returned to the Church of Nature's base in Kachi.
After walking into the Church of Nature, everything within gradually appeared before his eyes.
Even though the Church of Nature took up a lot of space, the buildings were quite old, and they looked quite simple and unadorned, giving off a unique sense of history.
Around it, ancient statues of gods stood erect.
When Shi Long arrived here, he ignored the others and walked straight into the depths of the church.
Soon, he came to the depths of the church and saw the others.
Within the church, the core members of the Church of Nature were already waiting. It seemed that they were waiting for news from Shi Long.
Looking at Shi Long's figure walking in from the outside world, they hurriedly turned around and walked forward, arriving before Shi Long.
"What's the situation like?"
A tall middle-aged man spoke first, looking at Shi Long with a look of concern on his face.
Of course, everyone else was the same. They all stared at Shi Long, wanting to know more from him.
Under their gazes, Shi Long took a deep breath and said, "It's done."
His Highness Eckart has agreed to our request and allied with us. "
He took in a deep breath and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence.
Only after a while did voices ring out.
Hearing Shi Long's words, everyone let out sighs of relief, feeling as if a large stone had been lifted from their hearts.
"That's good, that's good …"
The other elder let out a sigh of relief and said, "With His Highness Eckart's help, there shouldn't be any problems with our plan …"
"Now that we have awakened the Lord, we will have more confidence …"
Everyone let out sighs of relief.
"Just what is going on with His Highness Eckart?"
After standing on the spot and confirming this piece of news, another person spoke up, looked at Shi Long, and asked, "Is he the incarnation of a certain god, or is he merely a drop of divine blood?"
Hearing this, everyone turned their attention back to Shi Long.
Apart from cooperating with him, there was another reason why Shi Long wanted to meet with Chen Heng, which was to find out just who he was.
Was he the clone of a god, or was he someone else?
They had all seen the battle between the Dusk Church and Chen Heng.
At that moment, the power and aura that Chen Heng had displayed did not seem like that of an ordinary Awakened with Divine Blood.
As Priests, they knew the power of an Awakened with Divine Blood very well.
To them, the power that Chen Heng had displayed was not something that an ordinary Awakened could display.
The divinity that he had given off was incredibly powerful, and the divine aura was incredibly resplendent. It could even compare to a god item.
To be able to do this, if he was just an Awakened with Divine Blood, it would be quite strange.
The most special thing was the human figure that appeared afterwards. That huge divine shadow incarnation undoubtedly belonged to the power of the gods.
It was because of this that they had been so proactive in trying to form a relationship with Chen Heng.
After all, in the following generations, if they did not have god-level power to support them, they would definitely fall behind.
The Druidic Church's strength could not compare to those powerful churches, and if they did not think of ways to fight for an opportunity, they would most likely be eliminated.
Under everyone's gazes, Shi Long fell silent for a moment as if he was thinking to himself.
The others around him did not disturb him. They just stared at him, waiting for his reply.
After a moment, Shi Long raised his head and finally spoke.
"That feeling … is very unique …"
He recalled what he had felt earlier and said, "The God's blood in His Highness Ekado's body is so powerful that I have never seen it before."
"Before, I tried to use my Nature's Eye to see more, but I was unable to see what was within his body.
"The Nature's Eye's power was blocked by a formless energy, making it so that I was unable to see the source of his power."
"So it's like that …"
Hearing Shi Long's words, all of the Priests' expressions fell.
The Nature's Eye was a god item that the Nature God had left behind for the Druidic Church. According to legends, it was a god item formed from one of the Nature God's eyes, and it had the power to see through all illusions.
No matter what existence it was, the Nature's Eye would be able to see its source.
This was the case even for a god item.
Before this, they had used the Nature's Eye to see the battle between Chen Heng and the Dusk Church, allowing them to understand what had happened.
And now, even a god item like the Nature's Eye was unable to see through His Highness Ector?
This was truly a horrifying thing to behold.
After all, it was clear that ordinary things could not stop the Nature's Eye from seeing through.
Only existences above the Nature's Eye could stop the Nature's Eye from seeing through.
