In the midst of desolation, a thin woman knelt before the shrine, her eyes pleading as she kowtowed over and over again: "Lord God, please look upon the suffering of mankind, bestow your grace, and save mankind from this disaster..."
As expected, this time, the gods still did not respond.
But despite this, the woman did not give up.
"Lian, give up. We are as humble as ants. The gods will not even look at us." The man, who was lying beside the shrine and had no strength to move, used all his strength and left only one piece of advice to the woman in front of the shrine.
Lian paused for a moment and buried her last companion in silence.
She knelt in front of the shrine again and continued to plead numbly.
Lian listened to the man's advice, but all she could do was pray to the gods. Apart from that, she could do nothing in the face of natural disasters, including protecting herself.
Lian hit her head in front of the shrine, and her blood soaked into the soil and was eventually absorbed by the shrine.
Before Lian was about to faint from excessive blood loss, she heard a sigh.
"Humanity should be exterminated by this natural disaster. If you wish, I can spare you the pain and let you die in your dreams."
In her conscious dream, Lian heard herself say, "Lord God, of all living things in the world, why are humans the only ones to be wiped out in this natural disaster? You are omniscient and omnipotent, and have been worshipped by humans for thousands of years. Why can't you give humans a glimmer of hope?"
"Humans are inherently evil, and taking over the living space of other creatures is unacceptable to heaven and earth."
Lian: "But what humans do is no different from other races. From ancient times to the present, humans have always coexisted with other creatures. Other creatures still exist on the land where humans live! Humans do not harm other creatures. Please guide the direction of life for humans!"
The Lord God was silent for a long time. What He said came from the future, and using the future to punish the ignorant humans of the present was really unfair to humans.
He was not convinced by Lian, but after being worshipped by humans for thousands of years, he was willing to give humans another chance.
"In that case, I will give humanity a chance. From now on, humanity's survival will be decided by you."
The God used himself to resolve the natural disasters faced by mankind, and Lian, who obtained the power of God, began to use the power of God to help mankind survive and develop.
One year, one hundred years, one thousand years...
After a long time, Lian finally realized that the god who gave her power was the world consciousness of this world.
As He became the world consciousness, He watched as humans launched wars all over the world, killing each other, seizing territory, and plundering the lives of other creatures.
He finally realized that the judgment of the Lord God was correct and that humans should have been exterminated in that natural disaster.
Lian regretted it and wanted to do something to correct his mistake. At this time, he discovered a world called Xuanlingjie.
The monsters in the Xuanling Realm were consistent with his understanding of the ruler of the new world, so Lian decided that he would merge the two worlds, correct past mistakes, make humans extinct, and let the monsters become the rulers of the new world and the darlings of world consciousness.
Shen Yijin discovered that she had seen the past of the world consciousness, and she finally understood why the world consciousness insisted on the extinction of mankind.
"But the problem is not the human race at all!" Shen Yijin sighed.
The outbreak of war is never due to race, but to interests and greed. The monsters are powerful but do not cause harm to the world because they are restrained and restricted by humans and other races. If they are really allowed to dominate the world, war will break out sooner or later.
Shen Yijin can understand Lian's mental journey, but cannot understand Lian's choice, which is undoubtedly a step from one mistake to another.
Moreover, after experiencing the war, human beings have now realized their mistakes and are making up for the damage they have caused to the world.
The things that the previous world consciousness was worried about have long passed. If Lian wants to exterminate mankind, it should be before the end of the war!
There are so many complaints that Shen Yijin doesn’t know how to describe Lian Hao.
However, after watching Lian's terrible past, Shen Yijin finally knew how to solve the current troubles of mankind.
Lian is now afraid of ropes after being bitten by a snake once. As a world consciousness, he is now unfair. What keeps him going so crazy is his fear and panic of human beings destroying the world, and his regret for praying to God in the past.
As long as He realizes that the existence of humans will not destroy the world, His power will be weakened by Himself.
Their chances of winning will increase.
But these are not things that Shen Yijin can do alone. Relying solely on the power of faith of the Jiuxuan Sect is definitely not enough.
After thinking this through, Shen Yijin calmed down the power he had just gained but had not yet fully mastered, then stood up and walked out of the room.
"Sir." Sensing the change in the Lord of the Underworld, the ghost officials had already been waiting outside the door, waiting for Shen Yijin to come out and issue new instructions to them.
Shen Yijin paused for a moment as she was about to leave, then strode off: "Everything can be left as usual. I'm not here. If there's anything important in the underworld, please let it pass it on."
The female ghost was taken out of Shen Yijin's pocket and thrown casually on the ground. Before she could react to the situation around her, she was surrounded by ghost officials.
The female ghost retreated in panic and looked back for Shen Yijin, but Shen Yijin had already returned to the human world.
Nan Mingcheng saw Chen Yijin coming back, and his tense nerves relaxed: "You are finally back. If you don't come back, I will go down to find you."
Shen Yijin had been away for five days, and he was very worried that Shen Yijin had been besieged by the world consciousness in the underworld.
"I've been away for so long?" Shen Yijin's eyes widened in disbelief when he heard Nan Mingcheng say that he had been in the underworld for five days.
Clearly in her perception, she had only been in the underworld for two hours!
Nan Mingcheng nodded. He held Shen Yijin in his arms with some anxiety, and only then did he notice her abnormality.
Nan Mingcheng frowned: "Yijin, you have become... the underworld..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Shen Yijin nod, and the rest of the words were immediately choked in his throat and could no longer be said.
It seems that during the five days he was away, Shen Yijin caused a big stir in the underworld.
"How has the Jiuxuan Sect been doing during the five days I was away?" Compared to the changes in herself, Shen Yijin wanted to know how much her disciples had increased the Jiuxuan Sect's popularity.
“Uh…” Seeing Nan Mingcheng’s bad expression, Shen Yijin knew the answer. It seemed that the situation was not good.
Nan Mingcheng organized his words before saying, "Now the whole world knows about the Jiuxuan Sect, but not in a positive way. Foreign tourists come to the Jiuxuan Sect and spread the story of the ghosts there all over the world..."
Chen Yijin:?
