Chapter 730 The Truth
Chapter 730 The Truth
"Chu Yun, the human race here, if nothing unexpected happens, should be of the same origin as you Daxia people."
"Their customs and civilization are exactly the same as your Great Xia country..."
Quetzalcoatl turned her head and looked at Chu Yun, and the expression on her face became a little complicated.
"In fact, I am a little curious about who are the bold enough to keep the Daxia people in this desolate star field near the territory of the Daxia God System."
"Indeed, there are cases of missing persons on the outer front from time to time."
"It's not like it's some obscure secret."
"Just like in the mortal world, millions of people go missing every year for unknown reasons, and then their relatives can never find them no matter how hard they try."
"Except for some of these people who had accidents, most of them were abducted, deceived, and forced to go to ZP and MY while still alive by humans of the same race."
"Before they die, their fate is even worse. Their organs will be harvested and they will become 'commodities' sold around the world through certain special channels."
"But in the world of gods, the fate of mortals will be even worse than this."
"Just like what you are seeing now, they are destined to become slaves of certain gods and demons from the moment they are born, and they will act according to the rules set by certain gods and demons throughout their lives..."
At this point, Quetzalcoatl frowned slightly.
There was also a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"But this kind of thing is no longer a secret in the world of gods."
"But I really didn't expect who would be so bold as to do such things near the Great Xia God System."
Quetzalcoatl narrowed his eyes, and an unconcealable murderous intent emerged in his eyes.
Although she is not a god of Daxia, she has a good relationship with Chu Yun after all.
Moreover, Quetzalcoatl had already made up his mind that he would be tied to Chu Yun's chariot for the rest of his life.
In a sense, she and Chu Yun are of the same kind.
Regardless of her background, at least in terms of her stance, she would stand on the same front as Chu Yun.
And Chu Yun is from Daxia.
Now that I see my compatriots suffering such hardships, I naturally feel bad.
"How audacious."
Chu Yun murmured.
He hesitated to speak.
In fact, Chu Yun thought of a truth that he was reluctant to believe...
And just as the two of them were whispering.
The whispering crowd in the magnificent building in front of them suddenly quieted down.
No matter they were rich or poor, without exception, they all shut their mouths and subconsciously straightened their chests.
Everyone's spirit and energy suddenly changed at this moment.
Everyone's eyes were full of embarrassment.
They all gathered towards a statue inside the building.
Chu Yun and Quetzalcoatl also looked over.
The two did not show up immediately because Chu Yun still had some doubts that he wanted to find answers to.
Then it is better to wait and see how things develop to confirm your guess.
In my sight, I saw a man with luxurious clothes and a big belly walking out of the crowd.
The man looked to be around forty or fifty years old.
His hair was slightly gray, but his legs were very nimble and he walked quickly to the bottom of the statue.
Then he slowly turned around.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the man.
Everyone was holding their breath, and many of them could not hide the excitement on their faces, as if they were looking forward to something.
The man looked solemn and took out a roll of gold paper from his arms.
The gold-dyed paper was painted with intricate patterns of the gods, and looked quite sacred and solemn.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, the man respectfully held up the gold paper in both hands and muttered something.
"There is a fluctuation of mana!"
It was at this moment that Chu Yun's heart moved slightly.
The long-lost feeling of magical power fluctuation appeared again.
At this moment, Chu Yun finally found the source of his magic power.
However, the source of this fluctuation of magical power was not this man, but the statue behind him!
That's right!
A magical scene then unfolds.
Then he saw a man muttering something, as if he was whispering some mantras or hymns. The roll of gold paper he held high in his hands suddenly started to burn without any warning.
The golden paper emitted dazzling and magnificent golden fireworks.
As the flames leaped.
Wisps of green smoke floated and gradually filled the surroundings.
At the same time, the huge statue behind the man seemed to come alive, and its originally empty eyes seemed to blink!
At this moment, all the people in the hall, without exception, quickly lit the incense they had brought.
Everyone had a look of piety and reverence, muttering to themselves.
The smell of the burning incense became heavier and heavier, blurring people's vision in the haze and making everything in the hall seem even more mysterious.
The fragrance of incense also filled the air at this moment.
As the voices gathered, the statue suddenly moved.
The huge statue seemed to be alive.
The golden, gilded statue slowly opened its eyes.
In the hazy incense that was like a mist, it was difficult to see his eyes clearly.
And his huge arms, which were as thick as buckets, suddenly made grabbing movements to the left and right.
He opened his mouth wide and made a swallowing gesture. The scent of incense that filled the air was like a returning stream from the sea, quickly converging towards him.
This statue is absorbing the aroma of incense!
After seeing this scene, Chu Yun suddenly realized.
No wonder he could feel a little fluctuation of magic power!
Just because the statue in front of him is taking an alternative path of practice.
You know, the Daxia pantheon has a long history, and during that long period of time, all kinds of cultivation methods naturally emerged.
And there are people like Chu Yun who prove their truth through strength, or who have inherited the tradition of Jiejiao and practice the orthodox methods of Xuanmen, cultivating both strength and magic.
Naturally, there will be some alternative approaches.
For example, the statue in front of us uses a method of using incense to prove the truth.
This method of cultivation, in modern terms, is about devouring the power of faith of all living beings!
The more faith you have, the stronger you will be!
It is similar to the cultivation methods of some gods on the ancestral planet.
"No wonder there is a fluctuation in mana."
"So this is the way to prove the truth through burning incense."
Chu Yun figured it all out.
Indeed, only the method of burning incense and attaining enlightenment can provide a glimmer of hope for transcendence in this world where spiritual energy is exhausted and the path to cultivation is completely cut off.
After all, the way to prove your truth through burning incense and becoming stronger depends on the number of people who believe in you.
The powerful immortals and gods of Daxia usually use both methods.
We have the power of faith in incense, but we also don't forget to cultivate ourselves.
But in the current environment, it is obvious that practicing Buddhism through burning incense and attaining enlightenment is the only way out.
This is why, even though this world lacks spiritual energy from heaven and earth and even the rules of nature are in chaos, there are still practicing creatures.
Of course, Chu Yun didn’t think that this alternative statue in front of him had achieved the truth through incense and burning candles through his own inexplicable enlightenment.
Because even if one wants to attain enlightenment through burning incense, there must first be practicing living beings so that they can sense some mysterious energies between heaven and earth.
For example, the power of faith is something that ordinary people or inanimate objects cannot possibly notice before they practice and stimulate their potential.
At most, it's the so-called sixth sense.
For example, when I went out today, I suddenly felt that I was going to have good luck.
Or maybe you wake up in the morning and feel inexplicably flustered, vaguely feeling that you are going to have bad luck today.
These can all be collectively referred to as some of the mysteries between heaven and earth.
Even if ordinary people occasionally have such a strange feeling, it is impossible for them to grasp it accurately, let alone apply it to themselves.
Only after one has embarked on the path of spiritual practice, and as one's cultivation level improves and one undergoes constant transformation, can one discover the mysteries of the world.
Including the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
This is something that only practitioners can truly feel.
Therefore, it is impossible for this alternative statue in front of us to realize the method of attaining enlightenment through burning incense in this world.
This is not a question of which came first, the chicken or the egg.
The answer to this question is obvious. There must have been a method of proving the truth through burning incense first, so this statue has been worshipped and enshrined by countless people in this world.
Then, who was it that bestowed this statue with the power to allow it the possibility of transcendence?
Thinking of this, Chu Yun narrowed his eyes slightly.
At the same time, the statue devoured the incense smell all around.
The smell of fireworks that blurred everyone's vision was also rapidly decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this moment, the true appearance of the statue was revealed.
His gilded clay face looked like a real living creature at this moment.
He actually looked intoxicated, greedily inhaling the little remaining scent of incense.
Until the statue has "eaten" all the incense.
The man in gorgeous clothes, who had been silent under the statue, moved again.
The man smiled widely and bowed 90 degrees toward the statue, performing a standard salute.
"Respected Messenger of God, I am deeply humbled and terrified to have awakened you today."
"It's not that I want to disturb your peace on purpose, it's because the annual God-given ceremony has arrived."
"I hope the envoy of God will not blame me."
The man said in a loud and respectful voice.
"hehe."
As soon as the man finished speaking, the statue looked down at the man with a slightly playful smile.
"Sun Xing, if you hadn't said that, I would have almost forgotten that today is the day of the God-given ceremony."
When the man named Sun Xing heard this, he seemed to hear the dissatisfaction in the statue's words.
Sun Xing couldn't help but tremble subconsciously, and hurriedly said again: "I dare not, how dare I remind the envoy of God."
"Don't worry, envoy. After the God-granted ceremony is over, I will treat you with all my heart and present you with a great gift to make up for our mistake of waking you up rashly."
Sun Xing slowly raised his head, forced a smile on his face, and looked like he was trying to please others.
Hearing this, the statue's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Oh? There's a big gift."
"Haha, since there is such a great gift, why bother hiding it, and there is no need to wait until the God-given ceremony is over."
"You all know that the God-granted ritual takes a lot of toll on me."
"How about this, for this year's God-given ceremony, you offer me one hundred pairs of boys and girls, plus ten young virgins, and a hundred strong young men. This way, it can barely make up for the consumption of this God."
Ok? !
After these words were spoken, everyone in the hall was stunned and looked at the statue in surprise.
Even the man called Sun Xing couldn't help but tense up subconsciously.
His pupils suddenly contracted and his expression changed slightly.
A hint of ferocity flashed across Sun Xing's eyes.
Before everyone could react, Sun Xing had already come to his senses. He quickly bowed to the statue again.
"The envoy is right. That's right."
"I am a villain and I am rude."
"Don't worry, envoy. I will do my best to meet all your requirements!"
As he spoke, Sun Xing turned around.
When Sun Xing turned around, the flattering smile on his face had disappeared.
Instead, there was coldness and indifference.
He glanced expressionlessly at the dark crowd in front of him.
Then he said loudly: "Okay, everyone, the God-given ceremony will begin as usual."
"But you all have heard that if you want to be a lucky person and be blessed by God, you naturally need to pay a price."
“Don’t forget, everyone. All families blessed by God can enjoy the protection of God. They will also have the opportunity to leave the city and go to the sacred place of dreams, to contribute to God, live forever, be shrouded in the glory of God, and enjoy eternal life and boundless happiness.”
"This benefit is so great, I don't need to say more, right?"
"As the city lord, I feel that now is the time to test our faith."
Sun Xing said righteously.
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent.
However, Sun Xing did not notice Chu Yun and Quetzalcoatl in the crowd.
Not to mention Sun Xing, even the statue in the temple had no ability to see Chu Yun and Quetzalcoatl before they voluntarily revealed their whereabouts.
"Enjoy eternal life? Enjoy endless happiness?"
“The sacred place of dreams?”
"Is it the life of those generations who were reduced to coolies, and spent their whole lives moving stones and building those statues of unknown meaning?"
"What kind of eternal life is this..."
After hearing what Sun Xing said, Chu Yun frowned slightly.
Obviously, Chu Yun and Quetzalcoatl knew exactly what the truth of this so-called God-given ritual was.
What the hell is eternal life and happiness.
It's all a bunch of false and empty bullshit that is trying to mislead people!
The truth is often more cruel.
The Daxia people living here will probably never know until their death that their greatest dream in life is actually to send themselves and their descendants to the most cruel hell.
"call."
Thinking of this, Chu Yun couldn't help but let out a breath of foul air.
"Chu Yun, shall we take action?"
Quetzalcoatl glanced at Chu Yun.
Chu Yun shook his head: "Wait a moment."
Quetzalcoatl pursed his lips, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
"You... you should have guessed it, right?"
"The one who can master this set of dregs of Daxia civilization is probably not a foreign god."
"Whether it is the one who arranged these compatriots of yours in this desolate star region or the one who taught this statue the incense and the way of enlightenment, I'm afraid they are not outsiders."
"But...but it's one of our own people in your Daxia pantheon."
Quetzalcoatl smiled bitterly.
That’s right! Only our own people!
Such a hidden danger actually appeared in the Daxia pantheon!
Quetzalcoatl was of course well aware of Chu Yun’s purpose of coming to the outer front.
Moreover, Chu Yun’s identity is not simple. He inherited the fortune of the Emperor of Daxia. He also has the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven and the Underworld.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is closely related to the Daxia civilization, and that they prosper and suffer together.
If there were gods or demons in the Daxia pantheon who were so cruel to their own people.
Then these gods and demons are also obstacles for Chu Yun on the front line outside the sky.
After all, Chu Yun’s goal is to unite the Great Xia God System. Only by truly gathering together can the most terrifying power of the Great Xia God System be unleashed.
This will not only allow them to fight against the evil demons from outer space, but will also allow the Daxia pantheon to become extraordinary in one fell swoop!
But before these goals are achieved, if some unstable factors appear within the country, especially gods and demons who dare to attack their own people.
If things go wrong, it will cause huge trouble to Chu Yun.
After all, there is a high probability that these restless gods and demons lurking in the Daxia pantheon will surrender to the enemy.
Being able to be ruthless to your own people today and sell out your own people tomorrow, isn't that simple and there is no psychological barrier.
Not to mention, Chu Yun himself is from Da Xia.
All these reasons combined made Quetzalcoatl very sure that Chu Yun would never allow such a hidden danger to exist.
