After receiving Zhang Yu's orders, Yi Shen went to the depths of the interdimensional layer to hunt down the remnants of the Gods Restoration Society. This trip took more than twenty days. Because he didn't have Xuntian Dao Zhang and couldn't use Yuandu Xuantu to contact him, no one knew what the situation was like.
Until one day, not far from Shouzheng's base in Dongting Prefecture's Southern Continent, a magnificent golden light descended from the sky, and Yi Shen's figure appeared. This time, he returned with the long worm that the Gods Restoration Society relied on to maintain itself. It stopped there, almost as big as a mountain range, occupying almost all the flat land in front of the base.
This time, the remnants of the Gods Revival Society had indeed hidden themselves too deeply. After noticing that he was pursuing them, they went deeper into hiding. He had no choice but to follow them. He almost thought that he would not be able to come back. Fortunately, Daoist Zhan Kong received the support of Xuanting's Clear Sky Aura and was able to bring him out.
But it was only by a little bit. If he had gone a little deeper and had no connection with the Modern Realm, he might not have been able to make contact with them.
The old man from the Gods Restoration Society was also captured by him this time. The mask on his face had long been thrown away, revealing an old native face with grey hair and grey eyes. He asked, "Where is Your Eminence taking me?"
Yi Shen gestured to the front. "Can't you see? This is Tianxia's base. Of course, I'm bringing you to Tianxia."
The old man said agitatedly, "Your Eminence is His Eminence's guard, why are you colluding with those Tianxia people?"
Yi Shen puffed out his chest. "What are you talking about? I'm one of Tianxia's people. What do you mean by colluding with Tianxia people? Isn't it natural for me to help myself? What guard? That's all in the past. "
The old man looked at him with a complicated expression, then hesitated for a moment. "Can I also be one of Tianxia's people?"
Yi Shen was also taken aback. "Your faith isn't devout enough," he said in a playful tone.
However, the old man said matter-of-factly, "If one's faith is too devout, it's easy to lose the ability to judge. We need to be devout, but we can't allow God to endlessly demand from us. We need to have a good grasp of the scale, or else we won't be able to do anything. Ma … Sir, you should understand."
Two days ago, he felt that his communication with the Oracle had failed. Coupled with the fact that Goddess Yi had personally come to capture him, he already had a guess. However, he did not dare to say it out loud, nor did he dare to ask. Besides, doing so would only show his sincerity.
Yi Shen chuckled. "I have no say in your affairs."
The old man hurriedly said, "I know many things. Including many secrets of the Mochi Divine Clan, Tianxia will definitely be interested in them. "
Yi Shen asked curiously, "I've always been curious. There are some things that I didn't know before. Where did you find them?"
The old man hesitated. Yi Shen waved his hand. "Forget it, this has nothing to do with me. I'll enjoy myself. I'm too lazy to ask about your affairs."
At this moment, Jin Zhixing and Ai Bogao noticed the commotion outside the encampment and rushed out. Jin Zhixing brought the old man over to explain the situation to the two of them, and then reported the matter through the two of them. Not long after, they were ordered to wait for further orders.
Not long after, a ray of starlight shone on the platform in the base. Jin Zhixing and Ai Bogao saw the figure in the light and saluted, "This subordinate greets Ting Zhi." Yi Shen also saluted Tianxia.
Zhang Yu walked out of the light and nodded to the two and Yi Shen. At this time, the old man from the God Restoration Assembly kneeled down and said loudly, "This lowly one, Pareu, greets the Venerable One."
Zhang Yu's gaze fell on him. "You're the leader of the God Restoration Assembly in the Eastern Court? You're a native? "
The old man quickly replied, "Yes, this lowly one is one of the leaders of the God Restoration Assembly in the Southern Court. This lowly one was born in the Eastern Court and was originally a priest in a tribe."
Zhang Yu asked, "Can you elaborate?"
He didn't forcefully ask for the old man's memories because some spirituality wasn't just stored in the memories. Instead, it was used to communicate with certain spirituality through sacrifices.
The spirituality could be anywhere in the world or somewhere else. Especially if the spirituality didn't decline, it was very likely that the old man would receive some inspiration that he didn't know about before.
It would be best if the old man was willing to explain himself.
The old man nodded and honestly told Yi Shen about his origin, the things he received, and the things he did.
Zhang Yu listened calmly and didn't interrupt him.
According to this person, he was born in the middle of the previous era, which was when the Ipar Gods were at their peak. Originally, he was a priest who had a little spiritual power and received the teachings of the priests of the past. However, there was one time when his people were migrating. After kowtowing to a divine tree on the way, he inexplicably received many revelations. He also received an oracle that told him to go to a certain place.
He was very respectful towards the gods and didn't dare to disobey them. Thus, he handed over the priest's duties to an apprentice and went to that place alone. He found a ruin left behind by the gods in a valley surrounded by plains.
When he got there, he found out that he wasn't the only one who received the oracle. There were eleven other people who had the same experience as him and they all rushed to the ruin.
These people had once again received an oracle here. They were waiting for the right time to cooperate with the prophecy to welcome the return of the gods. They were also given many rewards. On one hand, their spirituality was greatly improved, and on the other hand, they received a lot of knowledge.
Although the twelve of them all worshipped the gods, only a small portion of them thought that knowledge was more important. Most of them thought that worshipping the gods was about piety and that knowledge was only a tool. As long as you were pious enough, the gods would give you more.
Thus, they split into two factions. One was the Northern God Restoration Society, while the other was the Southern God Restoration Society led by the old man.
However, the two factions didn't completely separate and they still supported each other for a long time. After the end of the Ipar's rule, the gods of the previous era were all over Dong Ting. The Northern God Restoration Society had been planning for the return of the Mochi race and was waiting for the right time.
However, the Southern God Restoration Society was different. Although they were also preparing for the return of the gods, they were much more passive. Through the oracle, he excavated various ruins left behind by the Mochi race, including the stone wall where the four gods were attached to. He relied on the knowledge he obtained and developed his own set of things. Their Bug Boat was based on one of the records of the Mochi race.
Zhang Yu looked at the inside of the Bug Boat. There was a cabin that looked like a bug egg. Inside it were humanoid creatures that grew on their own. They mainly relied on the Bug Boat to provide spiritual energy and nurture various kinds of people for their own use. This was also the main source of manpower for the God Restoration Society.
Although most of these people weren't very intelligent, they could carry out some simple tasks. After all, this was a relatively advanced skill. He suspected that part of the method of transforming mystical creatures in the Age of Dao might have come from here.
The old man said, "Actually, this lowly one doesn't really want the Mochi clan to come back, but the other two leaders insisted, so this lowly one can only pretend to be sincere. This lowly one actually doesn't want to go against Tianxia …"
His words were not false. With the return of the Moqi clan, they would be able to obtain a steady stream of new knowledge from them. Furthermore, they would not be bound by any restrictions. How wonderful would that be? Perhaps they would also be able to become gods in the end. Even if they could not become the ruler of the epoch, they would still be able to dominate the land. Unfortunately, the people of the Northern Continent were unwilling to listen to them and insisted on opposing Tianxia.
Zhang Yu didn't care about what he thought. He asked, "I have another question. Did the Mochi race have any records of the previous ruler of the era?"
The Mochi race definitely knew about this, but they were in a surprise attack this time and didn't have time to spare during the battle. Although they could communicate with Mochi, this person had an oath. No one knew what kind of oath he would make in advance, so it was not good to ask too much.
The EsGod that the Mochi race manifested had nothing other than emotions, so it was impossible for him to provide more information. Of course, the person in front of him was just a believer and might not know about this. He was just trying to ask, so it was fine if he didn't get an answer.
When the old man heard this question, he was even more certain that the Mochi race was finished. He thought for a while with respect and said, "Supreme Venerable One, I don't know what happened to the Mochi race before, but there are still some stone slabs that were found in some ruins of the Mochi race. The records on them might be related to what Supreme Venerable One heard."
Zhang Yu flicked his finger, and a ray of light fell, reflecting everything in the insect boat. He said, "Point it out."
The old man nodded. He identified it and pointed at a mural formed by twelve stone walls, saying, "This is it."
Zhang Yu directly pulled the mural in front of him. The people and things on it were very blurry, but as his gaze fell on it, scenes and scenes appeared in front of him.
Even without any explanation, he could feel that this was a first-person perspective recording of the Mochi race from the first time they appeared on the Underground Continent.
Some powerful races on the Underground Continent came from the Void, and some were the descendants of the Evil God. However, the Mochi race was not like that. They were natives, but one day, they inexplicably obtained power, and the level of their power was very high from the beginning.
When they came to the Underground Continent, there were still many remnants of the previous era. However, the races that created these civilizations seemed to have been cleansed, leaving nothing behind. They easily dominated the entire Underground Continent and then carried out the transformation of the various races.
Zhang Yu looked down and thought, 'No force can appear out of nowhere. Tianxia's power also developed slowly over a long period of time. The Mochi race's power can't be obtained for no reason. There must be a force or individual guiding them.' He thought of this generation's self-proclaimed supreme opponent. Where did this concept come from?
Also, Shen Mo's reaction when he saw him for the first time was also worth pondering.
The old man saw that he didn't speak, so he took out a metal plate from his robe and presented it with both hands. He said, "Supreme Venerable One, this is the map of the eastern court that I have drawn for an era. Today, I am willing to present it to Supreme Venerable One."
