After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 526 Dreaming Back to the Divine Peak

However, his gaze did not enter the vibrant Wood God's Court before him, but went to a secluded corner near the cliff at the edge of the God's Court, to a nursery.

The environment there is extremely special. Half of it is bathed in the most abundant vitality of the spiritual spring, while the other half, due to its proximity to mountain fissures, is permeated with a trace of yin energy from the depths of the earth all year round.

Just as yin and yang fields influence this nursery together.

A strange seedling took root at the intersection of vitality and yin energy. Its stem was slender and fragile, yet it exuded a strange, subtly unsettling vibration.

The seedling has only two tender leaves, one as red as fire and the other as blue as ice, and its slender golden stem exudes a mysterious and chaotic aura.

"As expected!" Shen Xu's gaze sharpened; the goddess was indeed connected to the Love Flower.

Shen Xu could also sense that the owner of the memory felt a sudden, inexplicable tremor in her heart the moment she saw the seedling.

……

As time went on, Shen Xu became almost certain that his perspective was that of the goddess's memories.

Although he could see mostly vague fragments of the goddess's memories, he had never seen anyone else in this blessed land.

The goddess is lonely.

Her only companions were the flower spirits and creatures, but those creatures could not understand her loneliness.

Aside from patrolling the mountain, her only interest was visiting the seedling that evoked special feelings in her every day.

The goddess gently nourished it with her purest life essence, and the seedling grew quickly, but it always only had two leaves.

This displeased the goddess, who did not believe there was any plant in the world that she could not cultivate.

She began to cultivate the seedling using various methods.

As she observed the seedling more closely, she discovered that it was extremely sensitive to her emotions—it grew slowly when she was calm and peaceful.

When she experiences emotional fluctuations due to the joys and sorrows of the creatures in the mountains, the seedlings absorb these emotional fluctuations and grow faster.

Countless years have passed, and the goddess continues to repeat her daily routine, while the seedling still only has two leaves.

The goddess gradually gave up cultivating the seedling, but often stayed by its side, sometimes for a long time.

The goddess grew tired of this kind of life at some point.

That day, a group of strange creatures came to the foot of Goddess Peak. They cut down and burned the trees at the foot of the mountain and built extremely ugly buildings, which made her very angry.

“Enemy…” The goddess, who had never spoken for thousands of years, suddenly uttered this syllable.

Instead of attacking the creatures at the foot of the mountain, she used a special type of tree to create a barrier at the foot of the mountain to block enemies who attempted to enter Goddess Peak.

The goddess longed for change, even if it came from enemies.

After she erected the barrier, those enemies, as weak as ants, did not continue to invade her territory.

And she could do one more thing: observe the lives of those insignificant enemies.

She discovered that her enemies had very short lifespans; sometimes, the person she had last seen would be gone the next morning.

Moreover, they were really weak. She felt that even if she didn't block Goddess Peak, they wouldn't be able to enter Goddess Peak. The monsters along the way could tear them to shreds.

She didn't understand why these weak people would be her enemies.

So much time has passed, and their numbers are still very small. Sometimes she even doubts whether they can survive on Goddess Peak.

Are these people really a threat to her?

But she also had to admit that the people down the mountain gave her an unprecedented experience.

Although their lives are not much different from those of the animals in the mountains, they are also born, grow up, mate, have children, and finally face their destined death.

But they did possess remarkable wisdom, just like her, and wisdom means creation, and creation means change. She did feel that life was no longer as boring as before.

In observing them, she also discovered the complexity of human nature.

They are greedy, envious, lazy, stubborn, conformist, and snobbish...

But they are also kind, upright, and tolerant...

This feeling of not being able to understand the nature of a creature made her feel vaguely uneasy.

But one thing she could sense was that she didn't want these 'enemies' to disappear from her world.

No one knows how much time has passed, but those people at the foot of the mountain are still struggling on the brink of death.

Meanwhile, the goddess found a boy in the mountains who was on the verge of death, bitten by a monster.

Ultimately, she did not choose to let the boy die on Goddess Peak.

Once you've done it the first time, you can do it countless times.

Her legends began to circulate among the people at the foot of the mountain, and they called her the 'Goddess'.

She didn't care about that. She wasn't their god. All she did was want them to live longer, just like wanting her favorite flowers to bloom longer.

But to her delight, the seedling that had remained unchanged gradually sprouted branches, grew a third pale golden leaf, and began to show intricate and mysterious natural patterns on its flower stem, patterns that seemed to stir the soul.

This made her believe she had made the right choice.

As time passed, with her unseen help, the people at the foot of the mountain gradually gained a foothold and a city began to take shape.

As external threats gradually disappeared, their lives became increasingly interesting, but their greed also began to surface.

At some point, some people who could use primordial energy appeared in the city below. They often crossed the barrier of Goddess Peak to enter Goddess Peak and pick items that belonged only to her.

Her long period of observation taught her that humans are creatures that take an inch and then a mile.

If she doesn't stop it, her Goddess Peak will be trampled on little by little.

So she took action, letting the people below know that their 'god' was not a 'benevolent god'.

The result satisfied her greatly, and for a long time afterward, no one among the people below dared to step inside the barrier.

But people are both forgetful and curious, so her method only addresses the symptoms, not the root cause.

As long as Goddess Peak remains in front of them, they will not stop their desire to explore it, but she is powerless to stop them.

She now understands somewhat why those people are her 'enemies'.

Her existence will eventually be discovered by an even more powerful enemy.

Finally, one day, several streaks of rainbow light rushed in from the outside.

The goddess stood atop the peak. She could sense that the strength of the people within the rainbow light was fundamentally different from that of those below the mountain, but to her, they were equally weak as ants.

Without her intervention, the vine demons knocked down the rainbow light, and their corpses became nourishment for Goddess Peak.

But there was one exception. He used some unknown ability to suddenly appear in her palace and enter her carefully hidden nursery.

Just as she was about to completely remove the insect from her nursery, she was surprised to find that a tiny flower bud, possessing an indescribable allure, was beginning to develop within the plant.

She gazed at the strange flower bud, feeling its increasingly intense and resonant aura.

This filled her heart with boundless anticipation for the beauty of the unknown. She poured her heart and soul into nurturing it for so many years, and finally, this day arrived.

But she also vaguely sensed a hint of excitement and danger lurking within that small flower bud that she couldn't control.

But she didn't care; she just wanted to see it bloom.

All of this is related to the human race in front of her; she can sense that the flower bud has already formed an indelible relationship with the human race before her.

"You stay and tend to my flowers." The goddess's voice was indifferent and devoid of any emotion.

Suddenly, Shen Xu felt a refreshing sensation in his soul, and the Crystal Lotus kept shimmering within it.

His consciousness returned quickly, but the scene before him rapidly blurred.

Through the haze, the man's face became clearer and clearer until it was completely visible to Shen Xu.

"Song Han!"
