Chapter 257: Astana and the Goddess of Light
After Zhou Wan and the five people gathered, the sky was bright, and the stars like flowers shone in the sky, and the two complemented each other, which was extremely strange.
In the northwest direction, a ruined sun temple hung there crookedly, and black gas could be faintly seen coming out, which looked hazy and not very real.
"I'd like to try to go up and have a look, what do you think?"
Standing by the window of the building, Chen Ji asked for their opinions, and warmed the little lady and Xiao Zhouwan again.
"Temple of the Sun......
Astana stood behind him, looking up at the Heavenly Temple, her eyes revealing an inexplicably complicated look.
Da Zhou Wan had met her once before, and Astana had been invited by Chen Ji to go to the apocalyptic world and purify the black petals that fell from the sun.
So, she took the initiative to ask the goddess, "Miss Astana, in your world, is that temple equivalent to the sun?" ”
Several people watched it together.
A smile appeared on Astana's holy and beautiful face: "Yes, according to some ancient books, there is no sunlight in the world, and the magic plant radiates light on the ground, and later, the goddess of light awakened, and the sun and moon were created by the mother goddess of all things, and the world has day and night. ”
Several people were amazed to hear that this was not a myth of creation, but a true record of creation.
Xia Shumin's eyes lit up when she heard this, she really wanted to ask more questions and know more about these things in other worlds.
Unfortunately, now is not the time.
"Creation?"
Mu Xiaoxiao is very interested in creation, and if he can meet that primordial, it will be even more worthwhile to go to the Divine Grace Continent.
Astana also recounted the fall of the Temple of the Sun after it was polluted, and how she created a new sun under the guidance of the gods and crashed into the Temple of the Sun.
Several people looked at Chen Ji together.
He is the true creator of the Divine Grace Continent, and he is worshiped by the surviving people, and his words are more powerful than the Holy Decree.
"Ahem, let's not talk about the past, since you all have no opinions, then let's go and take a look!"
Chen Ji hugged the little lady with one hand, and then hugged Xiao Zhouwan with the other.
In front of Da Zhou Wan, Mu Xiaoxiao, and Astana, he hugged the two beauties.
"Childe!"
Xia Shumin blushed with shyness, but he knew what he meant and didn't struggle.
Xiao Zhou Wan was very calm.
But Da Zhou Wan, who has a heart with her, knows very well that her cheeks have also become hot.
"Someone's coming."
Just as Chen Ji wanted to take them to the sky, Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly turned around and looked at the building.
Her perception is the most powerful, and she has the most combat experience, and she can't hide any abnormal movements.
Chen Ji waited, didn't see anyone come out, and after thinking for a while, he shouted into the building: "The people inside, you can come out here!" ”
"Brother Chen?!"
"Huh?"
It was the voice of the crown prince Lu Huai that surprised Xia Shumin.
After a while, Lu Huai and several of his guards found Chen Ji, his face was obviously relieved, and he said with a smile: "This is indeed a strange and inexplicable underworld, such a strange and sturdy pavilion, we have heard of it." ”
Chen Ji couldn't cry or laugh, and waved his hand at him: "We are going to do some things, you can stay here, or you can walk around, and the others will come back here later, you can ask them to understand." ”
Chen Ji was about to fly into the sky with the two of them in his arms.
Lu Huai noticed several beautiful women beside Chen Ji, and was stunned for a while.
"Oh yes, cousin!"
Xia Shumin, who was hugged by Chen Ji, suddenly wanted something, and hurriedly said to him: "Later, if my cousin sees a person with a head downstairs, don't attack her, cousin, you can't beat her!" ”
"Huh?"
Lu Huai, who was still in amazement, watched Chen Ji fly into the sky with his cousin in his arms and another beautiful and cold woman.
The other three also followed, like immortals who had left the world, making him feel so sad.
……
Chen Ji five people soared into the sky alone.
The sky at the intersection of the four realms was not high, and it came to an end all at once.
Suspended in the air, Mu Xiaoxiao looked up at the sky above and said, "The last time I made a move, I only felt that all the power was lost in the sea, and I couldn't have any impact on the upper realm. ”
The ruined Temple of the Sun seemed to be close at hand, but the barrier in the middle was comparable to that of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
Xiao Zhou Wan was hugged by Chen Ji's powerful arms, her eyes were withdrawn from the Sun Temple, and she looked at him: "Let's use power together?" ”
Gathering the power of the Four Realms, and perhaps adding a Mayien, it is possible to break the boundaries of this small world.
"Give it a try."
Chen Ji called Mayien out again, she had gathered the power of the Four Realms last time and knew what to do.
"Master."
The white-haired and red-eyed girl stared fixedly at the Heavenly Temple, her slender body glowing slightly, and after a moment, she shook her head and said, "It refuses to accept it." ”
"Refuse to accept?"
Chen Ji was stunned.
Mayien connected to the consciousness of the new life of the small world? Or did the world itself reject her?
No, no, the consciousness of the new world cannot be treated as a "human", it may be an instinctive rejection that does not allow any foreign objects to enter the origin of the world.
Things are at an impasse again.
"Every world is not allowed to reach the edge of the world?"
Mu Xiaoxiao was very depressed.
No matter how strong it is within the world, it will not help the existence outside the world.
"God."
Astana speculated, "The world is protecting the ruined Temple of the Sun, maybe it's guarding something. ”
"Guard?!"
Chen Ji looked at her: "Astana, how can you tell that it is guarding, not imprisoning?" ”
Mu Xiaoxiao reacted at this time.
In the Nine Domains, foreign objects from other worlds were thrown to the other side, and a small space was created to be imprisoned and restricted.
This goddess of starlight said that the sun temple with black gas was guarded by this world?
"God." Astana looked innocent, "Didn't you tell me?" The oracle delivered to me......"
Her voice grew smaller, as if she had finally realized that the voice in her head was not from God.
But......
"I'm ...... here"
Astana rubbed her forehead with a trembling hand, and her face was a little pale.
Several people looked at her.
"Astana, don't move yet!"
Chen Ji let go of the hand that was holding the little lady and the two girls, supported them with immortal power, and walked towards Astana.
When he touched her forehead, the goddess of divine descent who had prayed in the basement of the church for decades and had been corrupted by the power of the evil gods for many years revealed the evil eyes on her forehead again.
"Ahh Xia Shumin let out a small exclamation.
Astana's three eyes were closed, her body was constantly trembling, and there was a faint evil aura emanating from her body, but it was already very weak.
She seems to be fighting evil within her soul.
Chen Ji stretched out his hand and carefully brushed the outline of the closed eyes on her forehead with four forces, causing her eyes to vibrate violently, and the closed eyes bulged and moved from side to side, as if there was an incomparably terrifying monster living inside.
It's chilling.
"God ......"
Astana, with her eyes closed, muttered a prayer, and the divine power of the order of the stars reflected a bright starry sky, slowly surrounding her.
She had lost the ability to think, suspended in the air, stars surrounding her.
Chen Ji's finger pointed at Astana's evil eye, making it freeze.
Ma Yien, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly stretched out her hand and put it on Chen Ji's arm.
Mu Xiaoxiao also stretched out his hand.
Everyone else saw it, and reached out together, grabbed Chen Ji's hand, and "gathered" their strength together.
Finally.
On Astana's forehead, the sarcoma-like evil eyes slowly opened.
Xia Shumin was so frightened that she couldn't speak, she didn't know what it was, but she could also see that that eye was not the heavenly eye of Erlang God, but a terrifying monster.
Isn't it ...... when you open your eyes
A phantom of the goddess who was entwined with black flower branches, with a long body and kneeling weakly, appeared above Astana's forehead, and in an incredible way, appeared in front of Chen Ji and the others.
Chen Ji hadn't guessed who she was, as if Astana was in a daze, she had already muttered her identity:
"Goddess ......"
The goddess of light, a symbol of life and wisdom.
Her phantom appeared on Astana's forehead, her body was wrapped in black flower branches, kneeling on the ground, as if she was holding someone, the phantom was too small and too faint to see the specific appearance.
"She's a goddess?"
Xiao Zhouwan couldn't help but ask.
Chen Ji suddenly felt something, and looked at the Sun Temple in the distance again, but saw that a person's phantom appeared in front of the gate of the temple and waved his hand here.
In an instant, a pulling force appeared, pulling Chen Ji and the others towards the Sun Temple.
Xia Shumin was so frightened that she hugged Mu Xiaoxiao beside her, things happened too fast, and as soon as she saw a flower, she had already fallen in front of a ruined wall.
As soon as the toes stepped on the ground, the black ominous aura that permeated the surroundings was like a receding tide, dissipating most of it, revealing the original appearance of this place.
"This is the Temple of the Sun?"
Chen Ji noticed that most of the temple not far away had collapsed, and many black flower branches were wrapped around the pillars of the temple, collapsing along with the temple.
The place where he was standing now should be the original garden of the temple.
Huge garden.
There are plenty of fountain pools, beautiful stone sculptures, withered trees, and many dead corpses that have been corrupted by the Dead Mother Hive and the Shadows of Chaos.
There were not only Templar knights, but also priests, bishops, and priests.
There is not just one, but many.
"Followers of the goddess have been here!"
Astana had woken up, the evil eyes on her forehead disappeared, and her eyes were full of light, she should have known that the phantom of the goddess had appeared, and after seeing so many corpses, she couldn't help but be sad, and said:
"God, Astana just felt the will of the goddess of light, and although she couldn't say much, she only told me that she wasn't quite back to the beginning, and occasionally gave me guidance."
Chen Ji nodded, "This is a good thing, you should also call her a goddess." ”
Astana always hovers between the two titles of "goddess" and "goddess of light", she will subconsciously call the goddess, but when she notices, she will immediately change her name to the goddess of light to show the difference.
No wonder she can't purify the evil in her body, it turns out that the goddess of light still has a little consciousness left, and it seems to be entangled in Astana's soul.
"She's the same shadow that appeared earlier?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked impatiently.
In the Nine Domains, she had encountered this kind of black phantom that she couldn't tell who it was, very similar to the phantom that had just appeared in the temple.
If it's from the Divine Grace Continent, then everything makes sense:
The souls from the Divine Grace Continent are not recognized by the Nine Domains, and the Nine Domains themselves can't identify where these souls come from, and they can't even know what exactly is on it.
Because it is the soul of another world.
Astana shook her head and looked at Chen Ji gratefully: "The goddess is too weak and has lost her original strength, so she can only guide me from time to time...... The last time the power of the goddess was revealed, when I created the sun with the power of the gods, the goddess threw the lock of the gods. ”
Chen Ji's face was strange, the nascent sun couldn't burn at that time, so the goddess of light threw the lock of the gods into the nuclear fusion sun to burn with her own understanding?
No, the Divine Lock is not only burning, but also gives the newborn sun the unique divinity of the Divine Grace Continent, and the newborn sun does not have nuclear fusion on Earth.
"The puzzles were solved a lot at once."
Mu Xiaoxiao, who looked at the temple, narrowed his eyes, although there were still many puzzles, but at least he had the direction of guessing, so that he didn't understand what the black shadow was like before.
Da Zhou Wan looked at Astana and asked her, "Isn't this the Sun Temple?" Is the goddess of light also the goddess of the sun? ”
"The sun was created by the Mother Goddess of all things."
Astana explained, "But the Temple of the Sun was the last to fall to the kingdom of God, and we no longer had any news about the kingdom of God.
After seeing these corpses, I realized that the goddess had finally left in the Temple of the Sun. ”
Chen Ji walked towards the corpses, remembered something, and said to Xia Shumin and Xiao Zhouwan: "If you are afraid, close your eyes and don't look at it." ”
Xia Shumin quickly followed him and whispered that he was not afraid.
Quan Dang came to the battlefield.
It's just that this battlefield is tragic and weird.
Withered black branches, entangled in corpses that had been dead for years, none of them were corrupted, not even air-dried, and the remnants of the temple's power kept them almost as if they had not been dead for a long time.
Zhou Wan, who had never experienced the end of the world, was indeed a little afraid, it was the first time she had seen so many corpses.
However, her mental capacity is not so strong that she will have a shadow in her heart when she sees a corpse.
"May you all return to your original bosom."
After giving them a simple requiem ritual, Astana explained: "Among them are the Temple of the Sun, the Temple of the Moon, the followers of the Mother of All Things and the God of the Sky, and it should be the goddess who brought them to the Temple of the Sun and held on to the end." ”
The Temple of the Sun hangs high in the sky, and if it falls, it will have a huge impact, so the goddess of light came here and kept it until the end.
The original sun god may have long since returned to the beginning.
"In other words, there is still a remnant of the goddess's soul in the temple?"
Chen Ji looked at the temple.
Could it be that what this small world really wants to protect is a wisp of the remnant soul of the goddess of light in the Divine Grace Continent?
