"Dad, do you think the White Bone Spirit is one of them?" Little Beastie asked.
Lu Chen said indifferently, "It's very simple. I just told Bone Spirit to come out now. If she's really from the Temple of Heaven, we should be able to meet them as soon as we go out."
Little Beastie frowned. It turned out that Dad hadn't been blinded by women. However, it seemed that with Dad's character, women couldn't deceive him …
If she didn't ask for anything, she naturally couldn't deceive him!
Just in case, Lu Chen called Little Beastie and the others back for the time being.
Sure enough, Lu Chen didn't meet anyone from the Temple of Heaven even after he left the Holy Land.
It had been five months since the people from the Temple of Heaven came to look for Lu Chen. They couldn't find the island in the lake, so they wouldn't stay here forever.
Not long after, they saw Gu Mei walking toward them in a hurry.
"Solipsistic, come with me."
When they reached a place with fewer people, Bone Spirit stopped and took out a transmission talisman. "I don't know if the people from the Temple of Heaven have left. Let's leave this place first and go to the world of my faith."
Lu Chen nodded and followed Bone Spirit through the transmission.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Chen had already arrived in a strange world.
There was a village in the distance with smoke rising in spirals, but a large area of land was still occupied by cemeteries. The range was far larger than those bustling houses.
"This, this is …"
Bone Spirit smiled slightly. "This is the world of the dead. This cemetery is the cradle of the dead. Look at those living people. Aren't they similar to you humans?"
Lu Chen nodded. Judging from the figures working in the fields, they were indeed very similar to humans.
"However, their lifespan is only forty years. When they reach the prime of their life, most of them will … In your words, 'die'. However, in the world of the dead, it is called 'new life'."
Lu Chen frowned. It seemed that these humans were indeed not of the same race as his own.
"Thirty percent of our Undead Race came from such Undead Worlds. As for the other seventy percent, after the Ten Thousand Races died, they were taken over by the souls of the Undead Races, and became known as the Undead Race."
"They have the flesh and bones of ten thousand races, but they are still pure Undead." Bone Demon's detailed introduction of the clansmen was an eye-opener for Lu Chen.
"Come, I'll take you to where I live here." Bone Phantom pulled Lu Chen's hand. With a thought, they arrived at the peak of a snowy mountain.
Lu Chen froze for a moment. He thought the Bone Demon's residence was a tomb or something like that. He did not expect it to be a small wooden house on top of a snowy mountain.
"Are you coming in?" Bone Demon smiled at Lu Chen, patiently waiting for Lu Chen's response.
Lu Chen nodded and entered the cabin.
There was a fireplace in the house with a burning flame, making the small room exceptionally warm.
"You live here?"
Bone Demon smiled. "The Undead Race is rather special. Because we don't need to cut off our ties with the mortal world, no matter how high our cultivation is, we want to experience the life of ordinary people.
"In comparison, before we were reborn, we were more like walking corpses."
Sure enough, there were all kinds of strange things in the Boundless World. Lu Chen had seen another interesting race.
"Solipsistic, you … Are you going to participate in the battle of the gods? I'm worried that someone is plotting to lure you over. "
Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "The God Demon Fate Reversal is very important to me. I have to go and take a look."
"But you're a mortal after all. As the name suggests, the participants of the battle of the gods are all gods. In the past battles of the gods, no matter which Divine Territory it was in, it was always a Five-star Lower God who won in the end!" Bone Demon said, "Gods are not like Immortal Supremes. For mortals, each level of advancement is the result of hundreds or thousands of years of cultivation. Advancing by one star makes a huge difference in strength.
"You're a mortal. When you're affected by the Heavenly Path Divine Power, it'll be difficult for you to fight against the gods."
Lu Chen smiled slightly. "Thank you for the reminder. However, although I'm a mortal, I'm not afraid of the gods!"
A glimmer of light flashed in Bone Demon's eyes. Perhaps she had heard so many stories about Solipsistic, but it was precisely this point about Solipsistic that made her see him in a new light.
"Miss Bone Demon, the competition will start in a month. Can I participate?" Lu Chen asked.
"Sure. As long as you're not a Five-star Lower God, you can participate."
Lu Chen asked again, "If I win, will the prize be given to me?"
"If you win, they'll have to give you a prize instead. The eight Divine Territories are governed by the eight Supreme Core Gods. This competition is also organized by the God System of the eight Supreme Core Gods. The purpose is to attract more gods into their own God System.
"Once they break their promise, who would want to join a God System that doesn't keep its promises? By then, even the Power of Faith that should belong to them might be taken away. "
Lu Chen nodded and asked again, "Who are the eight Supreme Core Gods?"
"It's inconvenient for me to mention their names, but you have to remember that the eight Supreme Core Gods are in charge of the God System. They are divided into the God System, Demon System, Taoist System, Buddha System, Demon System, Spirit System, Life System, and Death System.
"They also control eight types of nature-defying powers. They control the Three Realms and coordinate thousands of races."
Lu Chen could not help but ask, "Which system do you belong to?"
"Me? I'm not qualified to join the God System yet. The minimum requirements for each God System are slightly different, but basically, you have to be a Five-star Lower God or above. Only such gods have their own Belief Worlds and are qualified to join the system and share the Belief Worlds with others.
"Moreover, I might not join the system. I have no intention of fighting for anything. It's not bad to be a carefree and happy god."
Lu Chen was indeed a little confused about the world of gods.
Bone Demon seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, "By the way, Solipsistic, during the Battle of the Gods, you must remember one thing."
"What is it?"
"Theoretically, the Battle of the Gods is a free-for-all. However, because the strongest Five-star Lower Gods are almost all members of the Eight Great God System, the battle will often evolve into a contest between the Eight Great God Systems.
"When they eliminate the gods of the other systems, there will be internal competition in the end … As for you, it seems that you won't be recognized by any of the systems. It's very likely that you'll fight to the end alone."
Lu Chen silently remembered Bone Demon's advice.
"I'll let you stay here for now. If you need anything, you can call me using the Voice Transmission Talisman at any time." Bone Demon stole a glance at Lu Chen's reaction. Seeing that Lu Chen did not object, Bone Demon was a little disappointed …
…
There was still more than half a month before the Battle of the Gods in Zi Zhou's God Territory. Lu Chen still had some time to cultivate.
He no longer needed to practice actual combat. He could only absorb the Life and Death Spirit Qi in this world where life and death were reversed …
Twenty days later. On this day, Bone Demon arrived in this world.
In the snow, the white-haired man opened his eyes slightly. He saw that other than Bone Demon, two other people had come together.
"Solipsistic!" Netherworld arrived in front of Lu Chen without touching the ground. "You, you really want to participate in the Battle of the Gods as a mortal?"
Withered Claw also arrived in front of Lu Chen. "Brother Du Kuang, in the Battle of the Gods, I'm afraid that you'll become the target of everyone. You, you have to think twice! Why don't you hunt with us in the Holy Land and slowly raise your cultivation … "
Lu Chen took a deep breath. He knew that today was the day of the Battle of the Gods.
He slowly stood up, his white hair dancing in the wind and snow. He looked at his palms.
"Thank you for your concern, but …"
"I'm the Human Emperor of the Gods and Demons. Why would I be afraid of being targeted? Even if it's a Battle of the Gods, even if it's a trap set by someone, I still want to participate! "
