311: The tacit understanding and actions of the true gods
Chapter 311: The True Gods' Tacit Understanding and Actions
Once his personal Disciple left, Wu Xian felt a sense of emptiness.
After all, Xu Cunxin was not only his Disciple but also a key general under his command.
All sectors of society were filled with curiosity about the [New Hero Tower].
However, currently, apart from the Alliance Headquarters, the Hero Tower data for the provincial branches had not yet been updated. They could only wait for the top players at the Alliance Headquarters' Hero Tower to experience it and share some information.
“Alright, everyone, get back to what you were doing. It’s still the same as before.”
Wu Xian waved his hand, signaling the Club members to return to their workstations.
No matter how the world changed, life had to go on, didn't it?
But Wu Xian could also clearly feel that this series of events today had completely pushed the entire world into a new chapter.
If the appearance of the Three Gods before was just a warm-up for a new version, then the appearance of this fourth True God today, along with the reform of the Alliance's Hero Tower, could be considered as completely opening the door to a new era.
Previously, Wu Xian had no interest in challenging the Hero Tower's floors.
Now, it would be necessary to go to the Hero Tower and experience it thoroughly.
It was already late, but Wu Xian did not disrupt his rhythm.
After chatting and discussing with Shifu Jie for a bit, he rushed overnight to the Pansi Cave outpost in the Insect World.
“Not bad~ How is it that you’ve already reached four and a half stars in just a few days?”
At the Pansi Cave outpost, under the efforts of Kun Youniang and Zhou Qi, their Rank had improved very quickly.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi had also increased significantly compared to before.
Compared to the chaotic, desolate landscape of the surrounding Insect World, it had a touch of an otherworldly paradise.
Zhou Qi, on his end, had already begun the exploration and research of Vicious Beasts.
Upon learning that Wu Xian was interested in his concept of a vicious creature, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Of course, Wu Xian wouldn't let him suffer a loss and directly shared with him a scroll idea based on the Vicious Beasts from the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
The moment he saw this idea, Zhou Qi's eyes lit up, captivated.
He immediately shared the core concept of his vicious creature with Wu Xian.
It must be said that Zhou Qi's core concept for this type of vicious creature indeed had something to it, especially the aspect of ignoring rules, which had great development potential.
While pondering the vicious creature concept, he arrived at Pansi Cave.
Kun Youniang here was clearly also startled by the Azure Tree King's ascension to Dao.
Fortunately, compared to the human world, the birth of an otherworldly demon god had little impact on them, the otherworldly beings. At most, it would only deepen the erosion and infiltration of the corresponding alternate dimension.
“Has there been any activity at the outpost recently?” Wu Xian inquired.
“Nothing much, just some great demon insects eyeing this territory of mine, but I’ve driven them all away.”
A hint of arrogance showed in Kun Youniang’s brows. These days, with the scroll ideas of Great Immortal of Pan Silk Cave and the blessings of Pansi Cave, her Realm and strength had advanced by leaps and bounds.
Those great demon insects in the vicinity were no longer her match.
Wu Xian chuckled, then discussed the changes in the otherworldly True Gods and the human world with Kun Youniang.
Upon learning that the Three Gods had incorporated their Dao fields into the Hero Tower system, Kun Youniang was also greatly astonished.
“It really seems possible,” Kun Youniang analyzed seriously: “Especially after comprehending your scroll concept recently, this feeling has become increasingly obvious.
Perhaps after we attain Dao and become gods, it’s truly possible to achieve the same goal through different paths as your human Scroll Masters.”
Hearing this, Wu Xian couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
After otherworldly great demons become gods, they transform into existences similar to “Scroll Masters,” which undoubtedly proves the correctness of the Scroll Master’s Dao.
At least the Upper Realm side must have gone astray.
It's just that he didn't know what specific path the otherworldly True God Scroll Masters took?
It should be different from human Scroll Masters, right?
“Xiao Dizi, weren’t you Abyssal Demon Lord’s subordinate before? Tell me about it.” Wu Xian couldn’t help but think of Xiao Dizi.
But Xiao Dizi said resentfully, “Don’t ask me. The moment I pledged allegiance to Abyssal Demon Lord, you killed me right after. I only saw Abyssal Demon Lord once in total.”
“Alright,” Wu Xian said, exasperated, “Then what did Abyssal Demon Lord look like?”
“Very handsome.”
“And then?”
“I was a small lord; I didn’t even dare to look directly at him, how could I observe him closely?” Xiao Dizi pouted.
Wu Xian's forehead darkened, and he no longer paid attention to Xiao Dizi. “By the way, Second Sister-in-law, what do you think about the intercity spatial lines in the human world? Why does Emperor Spirit of the Void specifically target this point?”
Kun Youniang pondered, “If I’m not mistaken, the True Gods should all be using their own methods to target and undermine the Upper Realm, but I don’t know what exactly they are targeting.”
“Targeting the Upper Realm? Undermining the Upper Realm’s power?”
Wu Xian fell into deep thought.
Emperor Spirit of the Void’s actions were the most obvious; it didn’t target other spatial equipment, only the intercity spatial lines.
This meant that intercity spatial lines had some special function for the Upper Realm’s existence.
Abyssal Demon Lord didn't have any obvious actions, but upon closer thought, the “Undying Spirit” characteristic should be the key.
Yes, it must be the Undying Spirit point!
Wu Xian suddenly thought of the wandering human souls that appeared in the city after the City God Temple was established.
Then he shivered with fear.
All this time, where did the souls of ordinary people go after they died?
At least from the current number of human souls in Yaoyang City, they were clearly all recently generated souls.
So the question was, where did the human souls of Yaoyang City go in the past?
In a trance, Wu Xian seemed to understand something.
Were the intercity spatial lines perhaps transport pipelines for collecting human souls from various cities?
Because of the blockade of the spatial lines, the recent human souls in Yaoyang City had accumulated?
And the “Undying Spirit” characteristic might be to restrict the Upper Realm from some kind of refinement and utilization of human souls?
Thus, everything became clear.
“That makes sense!”
Kun Youniang agreed with this line of thought.
Currently, only the actions of the ancient sea god of the Endless Sea, Tooth of the Azure Sea, were unclear.
Later, he could go to the Endless Sea and coastal cities to observe and look for clues.
Emperor Spirit of the Void and Abyssal Demon Lord cooperated so tacitly; Tooth of the Azure Sea certainly wouldn't be idle either.
Subsequently, the newly ascended Azure Tree King would definitely also take action.
It seems that the saying was true: The world has suffered under the Upper Realm for too long!
Currently, at least in the matter of resisting the Upper Realm, the otherworldly True Gods were not enemies.
But one thing was one thing; in the future struggle for Godhood and the Dao, everyone would still be competitors.
“By the way, Second Sister-in-law, where is that plant dimension infiltration zone you mentioned before? I’m preparing to go check it out.” Wu Xian asked.
Kun Youniang’s expression was strange. “Going now, wouldn’t that be inappropriate?”
“Is there a problem?”
“I forgot to tell you, that plant dimension infiltration zone corresponds to the Azure Tree King’s Green Desert.”
“With a True God’s stature, he shouldn’t stoop to bullying small fries like us, right?” Wu Xian’s expression was strange.
“It’s fine if you go, but the meaning of me going is different,” Kun Youniang explained helplessly: “Dimensional convergence zones are inherently places of conflict between two worlds. Azure Tree King just attained Dao, and if I go there to fight and kill, isn’t that clearly a provocation?”
“Alright,” Wu Xian shook his head in realization, “You just need to send me over.”
