"I know what you're saying." Ye Xingchen nodded slightly. "And then?"
“Every so often, they need to inhabit a new body because their powerful souls and divinity can transform that body, giving it special abilities and powers,” Jess said.
"They need time to transfer their divinity and power to their newborn bodies, and then they will molt like cicadas and regain a long life."
"However, their arrival requires an extremely powerful body; otherwise, the place where they arrive will not be able to withstand their powerful divine essence, and they will explode and die."
"So, they need to find someone with an extremely high bloodline, right?" Ye Xingchen seemed to understand.
Yes, the people with the purest bloodline, Jiu Li and Weina, as well as everyone on the island where they appeared, all belong to the purest bloodline. Such a bloodline is extremely rare, even among millions of people.
The fact that Augustus was able to gather more than a dozen people with extremely pure bloodlines together shows that he is still very powerful.
“Yes, those with extremely pure bloodlines.” Jess couldn’t help but give Ye Xingchen a deep look: “I didn’t expect you to have actually heard of those with extremely pure bloodlines?”
“Yes, I’ve heard of it. And there are two girls with extremely pure bloodlines around me. Their memories have been removed, and they have inherited a portion of the power of the gods, which is divine arts.” Ye Xingchen nodded slightly.
"Oh my god, do you really know someone like that?" Jess exclaimed in surprise, jumping to his feet with extreme excitement. "Augustus succeeded? He really succeeded?"
"I don't know, but those girls lost their memories. One of them has healing magic, able to draw power from flowers, plants and trees to repair her injured body, allowing people to quickly regain their strength," Ye Xingchen said. "As for the other one, she possesses extremely strong divine power and is very powerful."
"But they all have one thing in common: they have lost their memories before the age of twelve. They don't know where they came from, let alone where they are going," Ye Xingchen said.
“Oh, hehe, that’s because when they were receiving the divine descent, the divine magic erased their memories, making their bodies like transparent shells. Only a pure and untainted consciousness is worthy of the descent of a god,” Jess said. “That’s probably it.”
"What exactly is going on?" Ye Xingchen was somewhat confused, as he didn't know what kind of situation this was.
"The specific situation is that, about a hundred years ago, Augustus heard a divine revelation that some of the sleeping gods would descend to this world," Jess said. "So he instructed his followers to find people who were in accordance with the gods' descent."
"These people are the ones with extremely pure bloodlines, right?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“That’s right, they are people with top-tier bloodlines.” Jess nodded slowly. “So at that time, the Pope devoted all his resources to the plan of the Descendants.”
"The so-called 'descendants' are the incarnations of gods, and this plan is very long, spanning a hundred years or even longer. Augustus was the executor of this plan."
"I see. So, Augustus will go around the world to find those with the most refined bloodlines and then plan to bring down the gods, right?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“Yes, at that time, a miracle was discovered on an island. The power of many legendary but fallen gods was found there. That island was called Revelation Island, in the ocean.” Jess said, “And Augustus was the executor of this plan.”
"Okay, I understand." Ye Xingchen nodded. Weina and Jiuli were both part of this plan. They had each received the descent of different divine powers, which caused their memory loss.
"After all these years, have they succeeded? But it doesn't seem so. Those two girls beside you, they're not real gods, are they?" Jess asked.
"No, that's not it." Ye Xingchen shook his head: "They think like ordinary people, the only difference is that they possess divine power."
“But their emotions and desires are just like those of ordinary people, not like those of gods who are high and mighty,” Ye Xingchen said.
"Hehe, that can't be considered a success. They inherited the power of the gods, but they didn't bring down the minds of those gods." Jess chuckled. "However, give them some more time, and they'll definitely succeed."
"They... I'm afraid they don't have time," Ye Xingchen sighed.
"You... what did you say? They don't have time?" Jess was taken aback. He looked at Ye Xingchen in confusion: "Why do you say that? Did something happen?"
"Because I learned from those two girls that Augustus was listed as an apostate by the Pope, and he was being hunted down by the Pope's men. His fate is currently unknown," Ye Xingchen said. "I don't know what happened in the middle, but this plan has obviously been shelved."
Jess remained silent for a long time, seemingly still reeling from the shock. After a long while, he finally let out a long sigh: "It seems the plan has failed. Augustus... must have gleaned something from this and received other insights, which is why he did this."
"I don't know." Ye Xingchen slowly shook his head. "The mystery behind this will probably require a thorough investigation to unravel."
Jess closed his eyes, pondered for a long time, then sighed, slowly shook his head and said, "Augustus was a prophet; what he saw was something we could never understand."
"Perhaps... there are some changes in the Book of Revelation, or perhaps... this is just a hoax."
Jess's expression shifted rapidly as he muttered to himself, "But no matter what, this isn't a good thing, because I think how things will develop will exceed all of our expectations."
"Even you can't figure out why?" Ye Xingchen said, "Do you have any other information about the Descendants? Tell me anything that can reveal a clue, and I'll think about what the reason is."
Jess lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't think of that, because the plan for the Advent was a very grand plan for the Pope at the time."
“A plan that is launched with all the power of the Pope can be said to transcend time and space. Everything the Pope has to give way to this plan.” Jess shook his head and said, “If you are not part of the plan or an executor, you will not be able to learn anything from it.”
