Chapter 388: The Land of the Damned
The goddess in white glanced at the embarrassed Cheng Yue, and said lightly: "Fortunately, I came back in time, otherwise you might really be crushed underneath." ”
Cheng Yue waved his hand: "Don't mention it, my sword has fallen, if I can't pick it up, I will lose a lot." ”
A smile appeared on the face of the goddess in white: "Taiah, I can't imagine that after so many years, I can still see it." ”
Hearing this, Cheng Yue was surprised: "In your time, did Tai'a already exist?"
Cheng Yue had heard from Wang Xiaona before that the god corpse mound under the Wolf Mountain had existed long before the God Emperor created people, and that was at least a million years ago, the goddess in white was the aggregate of the remnant souls and power of the ancient gods, she said that she had seen Tai'a, which means that as early as a million years ago, Tai'a already existed, and it was very famous!
The white-clothed goddess said with a deep gaze: "Of course, the sword of the Son of Heaven exists in any era. ”
Cheng Yue was a little unsure of the meaning of this sentence, and just when he wanted to continue asking, the goddess in white suddenly frowned: "There are more than a dozen earth immortals approaching here, are they your companions?"
Hearing this, Cheng Yue looked strange, it was certain that when the Divine Corpse Devourer was not dead before, these earth immortals were indeed counted as his companions, because they had a common enemy. But now that the Devourer of Divine Corpses is dead, their common enemy has disappeared, and these Earth Immortals are not considered to be his companions, that is a question worth playing, especially when I think of the crazy words of the Devourer of Divine Corpses before he died......
"Looks like you don't want to see them?" asked the white-clothed goddess with a smile.
Cheng Yuehao nodded without hesitation: "Can you please take me away?"
"No problem. The white-clothed goddess readily agreed, "I've already said it before, right? There are still some things to tell you about the Cursed Land, let's go there, presumably those earth immortals don't dare to chase after them." ”
After that, the goddess in white reached out and grabbed Cheng Yue's arm, and the white light flashed and disappeared with him.
When they reappeared, Cheng Yue and the goddess in white had already come to the side of a big river with rough waves, crossed this river, and then went west, there was an endless wilderness and mountains and forests.
Cheng Yue looked at his feet and found that the land here was all black, looking fertile and vibrant, it was conceivable that if this place was really reclaimed, it would be a first-class fertile land, and it would not be a problem to feed at least hundreds of thousands of people.
Cheng Yue squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil on the ground, rubbed it in his hand, and looked regretful: "It's a pity that such a fertile land is cursed." ”
The goddess in white was a little surprised: "I thought you would worry about your own safety first, after all, this is a cursed place." ”
Cheng Yue smiled bitterly: "I have a lot of divine power in my body, and a god like you is by my side, how can I be afraid of a curse?"
The goddess in white laughed: "Young man, you are very smart. ”
Cheng Yue stood up, arched his hand towards the goddess, and said with a wink: "See you and laugh." ”
No matter how you look at Cheng Yue's style, it means that she will open a dyeing workshop with a little color, which makes the goddess in white a little annoyed: "It seems that I can't praise you often in the future." ”
"Don't. ”
Cheng Yue immediately made a bitter face, the conscience of heaven and earth, he didn't mean to behave like this, but the temperament and clothes of the goddess in white were too similar to his sister-in-law Xiao Ran, which made him feel close, and he couldn't help but act and speak casually.
The goddess in white shook her head slightly, she really couldn't love Cheng Yue's slippery temperament, she had no interest in wasting any more time, so she waved her long sleeves and used her mana to build a bridge over the river in front of her, and walked over first.
Seeing this, Cheng Yue hurriedly followed: "Where are you going to take me?"
The goddess in white did not hide from him: "Go to that legendary entrance to heaven." ”
Cheng Yue was taken aback, during this time, the cursed land was too hot, and all kinds of secrets were dug up by people, so he heard a lot of it, and knew that in the oldest legend of the Xijon people, there was a passage to "heaven" in the cursed land, but a long, long time ago, for some reason, the heaven on the other end of the passage "deteriorated" and became a place full of curses, and the curse of the cursed land spread through this passage. It can be said that the so-called "heaven" is the culprit of the curse!
Cheng Yue pondered for a moment and asked, "Can we seal that passage?"
His meaning was very simple, since the curses were all transmitted from the heaven on the other side of the passage, then sealing this passage was tantamount to cutting off the source of the curse. In this way, the remnants of the curse of the Cursed Land will become a rootless tree, and as long as humans persevere in purifying it, they will not worry about the day when the curse will be completely destroyed.
The goddess in white smiled: "The idea is very good, but it is impossible to do. ”
Cheng Yue was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Why is this?"
The white-clothed goddess sighed: "Because that passage was opened up by a god-emperor level existence, even if you rely on the power of the gods, you can't do anything about it." ”
"God Emperor Level...... Existence?" Cheng Yue couldn't help but speak, this was the first time he had heard this term in his life.
"Yes, even among the gods, there is still a great existence that can still be called the emperor, compared to this existence, our so-called 'gods' are at most just pawns, but we have no self-knowledge, we have to fight for something that is destined to be impossible to get, to fight, now that I think about it, we are really stupid and cute!" The goddess in white smiled poignantly, and the topic of the god emperor seemed to evoke some sad memories of her past.
Cheng Yue rationally didn't continue the topic, and instead asked, "What is the place opposite that passage? Is it really heaven?"
Faced with this question, the goddess asked rhetorically, "What is heaven?"
Cheng Yue pondered for a while, and said tentatively: "Where all good wishes can be realized, there is no nobility, no oppression, everyone can be respected, and there are inexhaustible resources, and so on." ”
A smile appeared on the goddess's face and she said bluntly, "There is no such paradise. ”
Cheng Yue was deeply shocked, and asked a little unwillingly: "Even an existence like the God Emperor can't build such a world?"
The goddess shook her head: "It's not that it can't be done, it's just that selfishness is too heavy, the so-called gods, in fact, are no different from people, chasing fame and fortune and power, and you can do whatever it takes to do this, it's really ironic." ”
Cheng Yue was silent. For the first time in his heart, he had the idea of denying "gods", if all the gods were as the goddess in white said, then they were not "gods", at most they were just "supermen" with great power.
The goddess in white glanced at Cheng Yue, who bowed her head and pondered, sighed faintly, and said silently: "The obsession is so heavy, I hope it won't hurt others and myself in the end." ”
Cheng Yue didn't hear this, and along the way, he has been thinking about his future path, and now he is already at the peak of the Mystic Law Realm, and he will soon be able to reach the Creation Law Realm and become a generation of grandmasters-like figures, so he may be very small in front of the gods, but he is undoubtedly a powerful existence in the human realm, especially since he has the Dragon Bone Sky Light Armor, which can increase the cultivation of a major realm, so that he has the ability to fight across the border.
Strength and responsibility are linked, with such a powerful power, Cheng Yue began to question himself: what can he do for the world, what can he do to make him different from those selfish immortals and human powers?
The final answer is: overturn the old order of this world!
If the original order of this world is ugly and stale, then crush it and build a new and even better order! This new order may not be perfect, but as long as it is better than the old order, this is the point!
Cheng Yue's eyes lit up, he had only been secretly arranging all along, and finally decided to take this crucial step!
Although, how to do this step, he has not yet figured out ......
The goddess in white knew what he was thinking, and her expression was a little unbearable, but she still didn't say anything.
Cheng Yue and the goddess in white seemed to be strolling leisurely, but in fact, the speed was not slow at all, and after a few hours, they came to the front of the "Heavenly Passage".
The Heavenly Passage is on the main peak of a high mountain, this main peak is not higher than Tianji Mountain, only a few hundred zhang, but the steep road and mountain terrain are very effective in eliminating most of the possibility of ordinary people reaching here.
The passage is rudimentary in shape, made of three rectangular stones – two on the ground to form the door frame, and a third on top of their heads.
Looking at such a simple passage, if it weren't for the existence of a layer of dark purple light curtain in the stone door, Cheng Yue would almost not recognize that this was a spatial passage.
The goddess instructed him: "Don't try to do anything out of the ordinary here, this place is guarded by a god-emperor level magic circle, and if you don't get it right, you will be wiped out!"
Cheng Yue frowned: "Isn't it okay to teleport with space spells?"
The goddess shook her head: "That kind of behavior will be judged disrespectful by the circle, although the crime is a little less serious than trying to destroy, but it will also be punished extremely severely." ”
Cheng Yue shrunk his neck and instantly transformed into a good baby.
