In Han Jin's mustard seed space, the atmosphere was particularly quiet. Han Jin held Sunier in his arms and sat silently on the top of the mountain, while Yalina sat beside him.
"But …" Yalina said hesitantly. Although she didn't know if Han Jin was right or wrong, she instinctively stood on Sunier's side when she saw Sunier's heartbroken look. "The Goddess of Liberty hasn't appeared for thousands of years. Maybe she will never come back. If that's the case, you don't have to move the Ancient Tree of Elves, right?"
Hearing Yalina's words, Sunier's eyelashes fluttered a few times. Of course, she didn't really faint, but she didn't know how to face Han Jin. On one hand, she was angry that Han Jin wanted the Ancient Tree of Elves, and on the other hand, she was full of guilt for accidentally injuring Han Jin. Han Jin's words from the bottom of his heart moved her, but how could her long-held belief be so easily subverted? Seeing that Yalina had asked the question she was concerned about, Sunier couldn't help but secretly prick up her ears to see how Han Jin would answer.
Sunier's subtle reaction naturally couldn't escape Han Jin's eyes. To be honest, Han Jin had expected that Sunier might not agree, but he really didn't expect that Sunier would have such a violent reaction. But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be normal. The attitude of the people here was far more devout than in the other world.
For example, in the Holy Crown City, if you rushed in and beat up the priest, you might only be punished accordingly. But if you burned down the entire church, the angry believers wouldn't let you go. They might even do something extreme, and even the mild-tempered Jeddis might do it.
Therefore, Han Jin could understand Sunier's previous reaction. As for the wound on his neck, he didn't care about it at all. The only thing he was worried about was how to convince Sunier. If he couldn't convince Sunier, then the rest of the elves could forget about it. If he wanted to move the Ancient Tree of Life peacefully, he would first have to obtain Gao Bin's approval. Then, he would have to let Gao Bin persuade the elves. Only then would he be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort. He needed Sunier's help.
Han Jin was so lost in thought that he forgot to answer Yalina's question. He only reacted when Yalina asked him a second time. After pondering for a while, he said, "Yalina, you said … What is a god?"
Yalina opened her mouth. She was stumped by Han Jin's question. She knew what a god was, but it was difficult for her to define it in words.
"Actually, they're not as unfathomable as you think." Han Jin smiled. "They're just a life form that's a little more powerful than us."
Yalina was stunned by Han Jin's bold words. Her small mouth opened into a cute shape. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say.
"Actually …" Han Jin sighed. "The totem pole of the Orc Race, the Demon Pool of the Abyss, your Ancient Tree of Elves, and the Gate of Heaven are actually the beacons left by the gods in this world. The reason why they look so mysterious is just a means for the gods to hide their true purpose."
"What makes you think that the Goddess of Liberty will do us harm? Everyone on the continent knows that the Goddess of Liberty is the only peace-loving god! " Sunier couldn't bear it anymore. She couldn't believe Han Jin's theory of crisis. Afraid of the return of the Goddess of Liberty? Why should they be afraid? All the elves had been waiting for the return of the Goddess of Liberty for countless years. How could it be that Han Jin was a danger that they had to eradicate?
"Peace-Loving?" Han Jin shrugged.
Sunier said word by word, "Also, Raphael, how can you … compare the gods with us? This is intolerable blasphemy. If this really spreads, everyone will reject you! "
"Why can't it be compared? We are all living beings, and it's not necessarily that we are nobler than each other … "Han Jin paused. After a moment, he finally admitted defeat under Sunier's angry gaze." Well, I'll change my way of saying it. You should understand what a god is. "
Han Jin's gaze fell on the towering mountain peak not far away. "It's a bit too spacious up there. Think about what you should add?"
Sunier and Yalina looked at each other at the same time, then looked at Han Jin in confusion. They didn't understand the meaning of Han Jin's words.
"In human legends, the God of Light created the whole world. He said there was light, so there was light. Everything in the world was created by the God of Light …"
"That's a historical fact that you humans deliberately fabricated. In our elven legends, it was the Goddess of Liberty who created the ocean and the forest," Sunier angrily interrupted Han Jin.
"You see, legends are legends, and it's inevitable that there will be times when they aren't true. Since there are elements of falsehood in the human legends, what reason do you have to believe that the elven legends are all true?" Han Jin looked at the speechless Sunier with a smile. He didn't dwell on this issue and changed the topic. "Whether it was the God of Light who created the world or the Goddess of Liberty who created the forest, in short, in all legends, the gods have the ability to create, right?"
Yalina nodded in agreement, but Sunier was still angry and turned her head away, ignoring Han Jin.
Han Jin smiled and continued, "Actually, when it comes to creation, it's not only the gods who can do it. I can do it too."
"You?!" The two of them stared at Han Jin in disbelief.
"Yalina, what do you want it to look like?" Han Jin smiled.
"Anything?" Yalina was eager to try. Although Sunier tried to keep a straight face, the shock in her eyes had already exposed her thoughts.
"Anything, as long as you can think of it," Han Jin said with a smile.
"Well … I want a palace, a very, very big one!" Yalina said expectantly.
Sunier said indifferently, "It's good enough that he can make you a thatched cottage, let alone a palace …"
Han Jin didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in Sunier's words. He still had a calm smile on his face. "What do you want? Tell me. What if I can really do it?"
Sunier pursed her lips and thought for a while, then said, "I like water. If it's really possible, let's make that mountain have another waterfall." She was the one who had stabbed Han Jin, but Han Jin acted as if nothing had happened. She really couldn't bear to continue arguing with him. In fact, saying what she wanted at this time was also a temporary concession.
"As you wish." Han Jin turned around with a smile. He raised his hand and pointed into the distance. Suddenly, a deafening rumble came from the mountain, and strange changes began to take place under Sunier and Yalina's incredulous gazes.
The mountain, which had a radius of dozens of miles, seemed to have been cut down by an invisible giant blade. Then, it seemed to have been hit by a huge force and suddenly shattered into countless large and small stones.
The gravel first flew into the air and then fell back down. It was a scene that Sunier and Yalina would never forget for the rest of their lives. It was as if there were countless invisible hands manipulating the countless stones. Every piece of gravel, no matter how big or small, fell in the place where it should be. First, a huge palace base appeared in front of them. Then, as the stones continued to fall, huge pillars, walls, and houses appeared from nothing, gradually forming a towering giant palace. All of this took only a few minutes.
This was a palace that exuded an ancient and simple aura. Every stone that made up the palace showed an irregular shape. No two stones were exactly the same, but they seemed to have been precisely calculated and fit together. Not a single stone was superfluous, and there was no gap in any place.
Sunier and Yalina were completely stunned. What was happening in front of them was simply indescribable. There was only one thought in their minds at this moment, and that was, how is this possible?!
"Oh, I almost forgot. There's also a waterfall." As Han Jin spoke, he waved his hand, and a hole several miles wide suddenly appeared in the mountain below the palace. A violent stream of water gushed out from it, shooting out dozens of meters before it lost its momentum and fell down. Countless splashing water droplets hit the rocks and made a rumbling sound. Even from a distance, Sunier and Yalina could feel the fresh water vapor blowing against their faces.
Fortunately, compared to the palace that had been built out of thin air, this waterfall was not as shocking. Sunier and Yalina quickly recovered and looked at Han Jin without blinking.
"What? You don't believe me? " Han Jin was very satisfied with their reactions. He did not do anything, but Sunier and Yalina felt their vision blur. When they looked again, they were already standing outside the palace.
Both of them were startled, but neither of them had time to blame Han Jin for his recklessness. Yalina rushed directly to the palace, while Sunier ran to the waterfall.
Standing in front of the Holy Crown City, Yalina realized how huge the palace was. The stone pillars, which were hundreds of meters high and dozens of meters thick, pierced straight into the sky like sharp swords. Even the gate of the palace was much higher than the city wall of the Holy Crown City. How could this be a palace? At this moment, Yalina suddenly felt that she had become an extremely small existence.
Yalina bit her lips and carefully stretched out a finger toward the stone pillar in front of her, for fear that if she used too much strength, she would destroy this spectacular scene that she had never seen before.
"Ah … it's real!" Yalina exclaimed excitedly. The cold and heavy feeling from her fingertips told her that everything in front of her was not an illusion.
"Of course it's real," Han Jin laughed involuntarily, "and it's very sturdy. You can't break it even with magic."
"What?" Yalina wrinkled her little nose. He was obviously looking down on her!
When Sunier came back with a strange expression, she saw Yalina continuously releasing ice blades, fireballs, thunderbolts, and all kinds of magic on the stone pillar. However, the stone pillar remained intact under Yalina's fierce bombardment. Even with her strength as a great magus, she could not even leave a trace on the stone pillar!
"Don't waste your strength. You can't break it." Han Jin smiled and stopped Yalina.
Although Yalina stopped her attack, she looked at Han Jin with eyes that clearly showed that she would not let him off easily if he did not explain clearly. In fact, Yalina could not be blamed for being angry. As a great magus, it would be a big joke if she could not even deal with a few stones.
"Because I didn't let you break it just now. You can try again now." Han Jin looked at Yalina's indignant little face and really wanted to laugh, but he had no choice but to hold it in. The matter with Sunier had not been settled yet, and he did not want to offend another one.
Yalina looked at Han Jin suspiciously, then turned around and tried to release a small fireball. A miracle happened. The small fireball went straight through the center of the stone pillar, leaving a bowl-sized hole. The stone pillar, which had stood firm under so many magic spells, suddenly became extremely fragile. It could not even withstand the lowest level of fireball.
Not only Sunier, but even Yalina was shocked. No matter how she looked, the stone pillar in front of her was no different from before. How did it suddenly become like this?
"You should understand now, right?" Han Jin stopped smiling and said slowly, "In this space, or rather in this world, I represent the law! If I say there are mountains, then there are mountains. If I say there is water, then there is water. According to your logic, what am I? "
"You …" Sunier and Yalina were tongue-tied and did not know what to say.
"Haha … Don't think so much. You just need to know that in front of you, I am just a man named Raphael, a man who is willing to live with you and never be separated." Han Jin said softly and took both of them into his arms. "In fact, I just want to prove to you that God is not an unattainable existence. What they can do, I can do too."
Sensing that Sunier was struggling to say something, Han Jin tightened his grip and pressed her down forcefully. "Okay, now you should carefully experience the wonders of this world." After saying this, Han Jin suddenly raised his hand and threw Sunier and Yalina out.
Yalina was the first to scream and immediately cast a levitation spell. The strange thing was that she could release all kinds of magic at will just now, but now she could not feel the fluctuation of elements. She could only scream and fall continuously. Finally, with a splash, she fell into the pool that had just formed under the waterfall.
Sunier's reaction was obviously calmer than Yalina's. She flipped her body lightly in mid-air and dove straight into the pool with her head down and feet up.
In a few breaths' time, Sunier had already floated up from the bottom of the pool, dragging a panic-stricken Yalina. She was so angry that her eyebrows were furrowed. Just as she was about to shout something, Han Jin stretched out his finger again. The ground suddenly separated, and the pool turned into a surging river, rolling and flowing into the distance.
