The Ancient Gods were innately supernatural. When the 'world' was first formed, when it was empty and lonely, they could only be born inexplicably due to mysterious reasons.
He was born with unlimited power. He was an extraordinary existence that was naturally achieved. He was different from those who used secret techniques to raise their abilities to the limits of mortals and transformed by luck.
There were also ordinary gods who inherited supernatural powers by chance, and then established their own sects, bewitching all living beings to absorb the power of faith to maintain themselves and improve their abilities. While they appeared to be two completely different creatures, as if mortals were ignorant enough to put them together, the truth was that the two were intimately connected at their roots.
In ancient times, those who had the opportunity to obtain faith power were all descendants of the ancient gods.
In the name of their ancestors, they herded tens of thousands of people, and because extraordinary bloodlines were born a hundred times stronger than ordinary people, the lucky ones would naturally evolve into gods. Therefore, the original ordinary gods were born from the bloodline of the ancient gods.
Later on, the world changed drastically. The ancient gods and their descendants fell one after another and fell into eternal slumber. However, heroes emerged from the ordinary humans and led their people to fight against fate.
On the bumpy road filled with thorns, mortals moved forward with great difficulty. Despite suffering, they also evolved to become wiser and more valiant. Finally, there were also outstanding ones who stood out and obtained extraordinary power, becoming a new god or opening up a different 'path' to become a different kind of powerful existence. The Daoist immortals and Buddhism Buddhas on Earth were examples.
Putting aside the method to become an 'Other Existence', there were two most important aspects to a god's metamorphosis. The first was to gather sufficient power of faith.
The second was the understanding of oneself in the deepest part of one's heart.
Due to the reason that the modern witchcraft cultivation no longer had the step of absorbing the power of faith, Zhang Lisheng's initial cultivation was essentially a different way to obtain extraordinary power.
It was only until he inadvertently spread his faith in the foreign world that he truly embarked on the path of becoming a god as a descendant of the ancient gods. In the end, he went through many difficulties and narrowly escaped death to obtain the abilities of Nuwa and the Hellfire God. The process was so tortuous, but the ending was almost perfect. One could not say that he was unlucky.
However, because the young man's initial purpose of cultivation was to trace his bloodline, he had always subconsciously believed that his power originated from the Ancestor God. Although this thought was not wrong, the power of the gods came from faith. Before he truly became an ancient god and had no taboo, if he did not even have a clear foundation of power, it would be equivalent to putting a heavy shackle on himself.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that the past had passed and that he was not a 'copy' of any god, but a new god who had inherited and merged the power of two ancient gods. Most importantly, he was a new god who had developed and evolved a unique ability. At once, Zhang Lisheng could not help but feel enlightened. Stretching his soul to its limit, he suddenly heard a murmur of praise and prayers resonating in the air.
The young man involuntarily reached out his hand to grab in the direction of the sound. He felt that his hands seemed to have grabbed an extremely tough curtain. After a moment of astonishment, an idea flashed in his mind. When he was about to tear it apart forcefully, the corner of his eyes suddenly caught sight of the faith stones floating out of the backpack beside him, with brilliance flowing on the surface.
His body froze. After pondering for a while, the young man retracted his hand and laughed out loud as he muttered, "I've made a breakthrough in my state of mind, but I've only obtained the power that I should have obtained long ago. I'm still one step away from becoming a real god.
At this time, I'm experimenting with tearing the void and traversing the 'world.' Once I get lost, I'll be better off dead than alive. Not to mention, it's not a good habit to waste either … "Then, he put the faith stones back into his backpack. Right at this moment, a melodious' ding ding ding 'sound resonated from outside the door.
Looking at the messy living room that had turned into a mess, Zhang Lisheng waved his hand casually. The mud that was scattered everywhere immediately rolled from the gorgeous and soft cashmere carpet, the simple but elegant leather sofa, and the bright and pleasant wallpaper into several dozens of 20-centimeter-tall clay figurines. They walked shakily to the small garden by the wall.
In just a few seconds, those little clay figurines lifted the fallen green plants and beautiful flowers up one by one. In just a blink of an eye, they turned into moist soil, restoring the scene of exuberance to the flowerbed.
Looking around and seeing that everything had become clean and tidy, the young man smiled in satisfaction and slowly jumped down from the sofa. He strolled to the door and asked despite knowing the answer, "Is there anything? I don't remember ordering room service."
"Please forgive me, sir. I heard a loud noise in the corridor just now. Is there anything you need?" A middle-aged man in a black suit outside the door asked politely.
The top suite of the Noble Hotel was very soundproof, so it was unusual for there to be noise coming from inside. However, as the exclusive butler of the royal suite, the middle-aged man's words were quite tactful, and his attitude was always respectful.
"Oh, in that case, I'm the one who should be asking for forgiveness," Zhang Lisheng shrugged and lied. "I was singing just now, so did I disturb the other guests? If so, please apologize to them on my behalf."
"You were singing …" The excuse that was too absurd made the middle-aged man's eyes widen right away.
"Yes, I was singing. Is there a problem?" The young man frowned and asked.
In front of a five-star hotel's service staff, of course, the guest who was willing to pay 12,000 dollars for a night's rest would always be right. The middle-aged man snapped back to reality and bowed to apologize. "Of course not, sir. It's a beautiful song.
There were no complaints from other guests. I only knocked on the door to ask if you need anything. You know, there's only one suite on the top floor, so you can sing to your heart's content. I'm sorry to disturb you. "
"It's alright." The young man shrugged and closed the door. After turning around, he walked to the bedroom with his mouth wide open. At this moment, it was also late at night in the Wizard Li Archipelago, but many of his devout believers suddenly woke up from their sleep.
Stretching out their legs, each and every one of them had a strong body and mastered the power of spellcasting, thinking that it was their duty to fight the gods.
Some of them had a soft physique, but they were talented and could make armor and sharp weapons.
Some of them were ordinary and had a low status, quietly contributing their labor to the tribe.
Some of them were quite talented and could lead the 'separation' or even the entire island. Sitting on the wooden bed, the hollow eyes hidden in the darkness flashed with a faint mottled brilliance as they unconsciously chanted a hoarse incantation of 'pst shh …'.
As the obscure and strange incantation converged and drifted in the night sky of the islands, the insects and beasts in the vast jungle of millions of kilometers began to shriek and wail as they fled in horror from the place where the Wizard Li tribe dwelled. The birth of the Wizard Li tribe's new supernatural power, the god high priests, had already displayed an appallingly powerful deterrent force when they were born.
Zhang Lisheng did not know that after his soul was liberated, not only did he take a big step forward on the path of the gods, but he had also brought a profound impact to his hundreds of millions of believers and even the Colossal World in the future.
Listening to the faint prayers, the young man fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up, the sky was already bright.
"I actually slept for more than ten hours? This is too exaggerated …" Pulling the bedroom curtain, Zhang Lisheng looked at the city that had long woken up and muttered. However, he did not notice that his face that had turned pale because he used mud to create the strange insects last night had already regained its rosy color.
After freshening up, he took the hotel limousine to Manhattan 12th Street.
After getting off the limousine at the Chinese Consulate General in New York, the young man walked up the stairs and saw that the consulate's door was closed. There was also a young and tall black man in a blue uniform guarding outside the door. Knowing that it might be affected by the incident last night, he said to the guard, "Please help me look for Miss Guo Caiying."
"The consulate is not working today. Miss Guo has already gone out in the morning, sir." The guard, who had short hair sticking close to his scalp and a height of more than 190 centimeters, sized up Zhang Lisheng and hesitated for a while before shrugging and replying with a blank expression.
According to the usual practice, if there was no special situation in the diplomatic consulate, the internal security would be taken care of by the military officer stationed abroad while the external security would be handed over to the local 'security consulting company.' This black guard was obviously a foreign employee.
"Oh buddy, it's true that Miss Guo has the habit of running in the morning but she'll never stay on the streets of New York to breathe in car exhaust after 10 o 'clock in the morning. Not only that, but I'm afraid she's not in the mood to shop today.
I know she's in the consulate. Please inform her that her junior is looking for her. "Zhang Lisheng smiled and took out 50 dollars before quietly shoving it into the guard's hand.
Naturally, the foreign security guards who served the consulate had received special training. However, if it was just a simple passing of a message, it would not violate the discipline no matter what angle he stood at. The black guard was stunned for a moment before lowering his voice cleverly. "Oh sir, this is not about the money …"
"Oh sir, no matter whether this is about the money or not, I've shown great sincerity." The young man interrupted the guard's words with a smile. The dollar bill in his hand turned into two.
"This is indeed a great sincerity." The sturdy guard licked his lips and quietly took the bill. He said by instinct, "Looks like you're a very generous person. Girls like this kind of man now. No wonder it would cause hostility from others."
"What are you talking about, Mr. Guard?"
"Oh, nothing. I'll go inform Miss Guo. She should be back by now." The young black man chuckled and shook his head. At this moment, the guard who was on duty with him just happened to run out of the consulate in a hurry. He shrugged at the man and said, "Paul, you're really unlucky.
Alright, it's my turn to go to the bathroom now. I'll wait here. "He strode into the consulate and left his baffled colleague behind.
A few minutes later, a beautiful Chinese girl wearing a coffee-colored suit rushed out of the consulate with light footsteps. When she saw Zhang Lisheng's smiling face, she ran up to the young man in surprise and said loudly, "Y-You're out, Lisheng! This is great …"
"Hey, Senior Sister, calm down. I'm not going to prison and the Atlanteans are not cannibals either. Don't you think your reaction is too exaggerated?"
"Calm down? Ha, haven't you heard how terrifying those Atlanteans were during the 'winter riots'? They're not much different from demons.
Four sergeants coming to 'invite' you is almost equivalent to a death sentence, "Guo Caiying said disapprovingly. Guo Caiying said disapprovingly, but in fact, she had calmed down. She seemed to have realized her gaffe.
