Night looked at Lin Nai suspiciously: "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing." Lin Nai pondered for a moment, then shook her head. "Let's go inside."
Enter the Temple of the Sun.
Actually, it doesn't really look like a temple here. It's more like a courtyard in the style of the Han Dynasty, decorated with a distinctly ancient charm.
Linnaeus and Yewan walked into the courtyard and saw an old man dressed in coarse cloth clothes watering the flowers and plants in the courtyard with a watering can.
"Hello," Lin Nai said politely, "You must be Elder Wei?"
Upon hearing the voice, Old Wei slowly turned his head and looked at Lin Nai and Ye Wan'er.
His hair was gray, but his face did not look old; he had a healthy complexion and gray eyes that seemed to possess a strange charm.
"It's been a long time, Lord Carlos," Elder Wei said calmly.
Linnaeus's pupils contracted slightly.
Even the night beside her showed a surprised expression.
The air seemed to freeze for a moment. Lin Nai frowned slightly, a flurry of guesses flashing through her mind. Old Wei turned around and continued watering the flowers with the watering can in his hand: "You don't need to be too surprised, because my situation is probably the same as yours. Although you have disguised yourself, I can probably smell the scent of divine power on you."
"...You." Lin Nai narrowed his eyes: "You're not Elder Wei, you're the last sun god before the destruction of the civilization of gods—Kuiyang?"
“It’s me,” Elder Wei said slowly. “The real Elder Wei had already exhausted his lifespan three years ago. He gave his last bit of life force to me, allowing me to use his body and move freely in this plane. Simply put, my spirit possessed this body.”
Linnaeus remained silent and pondered.
Another person has mistaken me for Carlos.
So, the divine power you just felt also came from Elder Wei?
"Having been in the human plane for so long, I never expected to meet you here. It is truly an honor and a pleasant surprise, Lord Carlos."
“There’s no need to call me that.” Lin Nai waved his hand and said, “Long before the destruction of the civilization of gods, I was already labeled a traitor by the Black Lord. Moreover, even among the gods, you are older than me in terms of age.”
Old Wei smiled faintly.
"So, the rest of the farmers probably don't know that the real Elder Wei is dead?" Lin Nai asked.
“Yes,” Old Wei said. “Like you, I need to conceal my identity when traveling in the human realm. Of course, I also helped Old Wei fulfill his last wish; at least I helped him take care of the last remaining embers of the Farm Company.”
Lin Nai thought to herself, "I'm not like you..."
"But I was still quite surprised to see you," said Old Wei. "The news reports said you were sucked into a dimensional rift, and I thought you had completely disappeared... So what exactly happened to you?"
"It's nothing, um... I just encountered a minor accident after entering the void world, and after a series of twists and turns, I survived." Lin Nai looked at Elder Wei: "By the way, there's something I need your help with."
"I think I already know," Elder Wei said. "It's about making a serum to eliminate demonic energy contamination, isn't it?"
Linna: "?? How did you know?"
Old Wei: "The goddess of fate has already told me that I should wait here and an old friend will come. I just didn't expect that this old friend would be you."
"The Goddess of Fate..." In Carlos's memories that Linna possessed, she was a goddess with the ability to foresee the future: "You still have contact with the Goddess of Fate?"
"Yes, but it's just communication on a spiritual level, and she can only communicate with me unilaterally. I haven't received any messages from her for a long time, and I don't know where she is now," Old Wei said. "If you want to make the serum, I can help you with all the other rare and precious materials, but you have to find the sap of the Demon Tree yourself."
Do you know exactly where the Demon Tree grows?
"I have absolutely no idea," Old Wei shook his head.
"Is that so..." Lin Nai was somewhat disappointed.
But thinking about it, the result is already very good.
At least, apart from the sap of the demon tree, the sun god helped with all the other materials.
It would normally take much longer.
"Never mind, it's alright," Linna said. "I'll find the Demon Tree myself, but I'll have to leave the rest to you."
“No problem.” Old Wei put down the watering can. “Please come with me.”
Linna and Ye Wan'er followed Old Wei to another backyard. There was a completely empty patch of red clay soil. Old Wei opened his palms, scattered a handful of seeds, then clasped his hands together, closed his eyes, and unleashed his divine power: "Divine Art—Holy Sun Shines Everywhere!"
A small red sun slowly rose, and then it shone with dazzling sunlight.
The light was so bright that Linnai and Yewan could only barely open half of their eyes.
Soon, they could see the seeds in the red soil sprout rapidly, and hundreds of colorful spiritual plants grew out of the red soil, quickly maturing, flowering, and bearing fruit!
Lin Nai's eyes lit up: "No wonder, your divine power alone can fill this barrier with life, it's really amazing."
Old Wei wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Actually, if the God of Nature were here, it would be faster. Moreover, my human body can only use 4% of my divine power at present. For some spiritual plants with weaker vitality, I will need to spend more time."
