"How long has it been?"

Lin Qiye glanced at the sky which was gradually turning dim, then turned around and asked.

"Half an hour." An Qingyu replied.

"Half an hour..." Lin Qiye frowned slightly, "Did something unexpected happen to Brother Zha?"

Logically speaking, with Shen Qingzhu's temperament, it should not be difficult for him to put aside distracting thoughts and enter the pure land of mind. He hasn't come in after half an hour. Either something unexpected happened on the boat, or the distracting thoughts in his mind are very complicated... Based on Lin Qiye's understanding of Shen Qingzhu, he is more inclined to the former.

"No accident happened. He just had too many distracting thoughts in his mind, so he couldn't get in." Michael glanced at the void and spoke lightly.

Lin Qiye and the other two were stunned at the same time.

Does Brother Zha have too many distracting thoughts?

How is this possible?

That's a cool guy who risked his life all the way and struggled between life and death!

If you ask who has the most mature character in the entire team, everyone will choose Shen Qingzhu first. Lin Qiye really can't think of what kind of distracting thoughts can restrain this man who doesn't care about life and death.

Lin Qiye and An Qingyu looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes. Only Jiang Er was floating quietly in the air, as if he had thought of something and was in a daze.

"We don't have much time. He can't come in. I'll have him wait on the ship. After you get the [Ark of the Covenant], you can go and join him."

Michael casually sketched a string of characters in the air, which turned into a golden light and disappeared into nothingness.

After doing all this, he lightly flapped his wings, and a golden light surged out like a tide, enveloping Lin Qiye and the other two behind him, and then flew towards the center of the clouds under the dim sunlight.

…

Above the sea.

In the endless darkness and fog, the exploration ship swayed with the rolling waves. Inside the silent cabin, a figure still stubbornly sat cross-legged on the ground, the dim candlelight illuminated his cheeks, and beads of sweat the size of beans dripped onto the ground.

Shen Qingzhu frowned, his face slightly pale due to excessive mental exhaustion. As the ship shook violently, the candle on the table burned out and went out in an instant, and endless darkness enveloped the entire cabin.

Heavy breathing echoed in the cabin. After a moment, Shen Qingzhu slowly opened his eyes, with unprecedented fatigue appearing on his face.

He took two deep breaths, looked at the time in the center of the cabin, clenched his fists, and was about to try to enter heaven again. At this moment, a golden light shot out from the void and hovered in front of Shen Qingzhu.

It was a string of characters that Shen Qingzhu did not recognize, but the moment it appeared, a thought was transmitted into his mind.

"No need to try again, just wait here."

Shen Qingzhu stood there in a daze.

cluster--!

The golden character burned out in the air, the golden light disappeared, and Shen Qingzhu's pale and stunned face sank into darkness again.

The creaking sound of the hull echoed in the dark cabin. Shen Qingzhu stood there like a sculpture. After a long time, he smiled at himself, leaned against the door, and sat weakly on the ground.

He took out a cigarette from his bosom, lit it, and exhaled the smoke with ease, but his left fist clenched unconsciously.

He looked up at the swirling mist astern and fell silent.

Boom!

I don't know how long it took,

The dull sound of a fist hitting the deck echoed in the dead silence of the cabin.

…

Heaven.

A golden light flashed in the sky and rushed towards the depths of heaven.

Michael's speed was so fast that Lin Qiye and others who were shrouded in golden light could only see countless blurry afterimages flying below him, and then they came to a flat and desolate open space.

Lin Qiye stepped on the clouds and looked around. He saw white clouds surrounding the open space, like a slowly rotating white round tower. The clouds under his feet connected to the dim sky. The open space wrapped in white clouds was nearly 100 kilometers wide, like a city.

"Is this heaven?" An Qingyu asked in surprise.

"This is the residence of the Holy Lord. The circle outside the clouds is the real heaven for the dead souls." Michael explained calmly.

Lin Qiye was stunned.

Such a large area is just the residence of Yeland? How big is the entire kingdom of heaven?

Thinking of the afterimage that just flew past his eyes, Lin Qiye's brows raised slightly. Even at the speed of a Seraph, it took so long to fly... The scale of this heaven is probably far beyond their imagination.

"Heaven is not material, so size and area, which are physical quantities used to measure objects, are meaningless here. From a spiritual perspective, heaven itself is infinite." Michael flapped his wings and flew towards the center of the open space, his eyes scanning the surroundings, as if he was really looking for something.

It's really mysterious.

Lin Qiye sighed again in his heart, and the figure walking out of the sixth ward appeared in his mind, and his heart moved slightly:

"Ye Lan...where is the Holy Lord of your Western Holy Church?"

Michael paused for a moment, "He left."

"leave?"

Hearing these two words, Lin Qiye didn't know how to understand them for a moment.

Michael stopped, looked up at the sky, stretched out his hand, and gently pointed upwards:

"He's there."

Lin Qiye and the other two looked in the direction “He” was pointing. There was nothing but the boundless sky. They were startled at first, then seemed to have thought of something and said in unison:

"moon?!"

Michael nodded slightly, "A long time ago, when the gods of Cthulhu had just descended on Earth, some of the Supreme Gods on Earth discovered something and joined forces to try to wipe them out, but their power was too strange, so the gods could only change their methods and try to expel or seal them.

Finally, several supreme beings managed to lead the Cthulhu gods to the moon. After a great battle, the Holy Lord shattered the moon, and at the cost of himself and the origin of heaven, he transformed into a crescent moon and forcibly sealed the Cthulhu gods.

Since then, the Kingdom of Heaven has fallen, and I have followed the orders of the Holy Lord and have been stationed on the moon to prevent the gods of the Cthulhu system from breaking the seal and endangering the earth. "

After hearing what Michael said, Lin Qiye and the others were shocked and their mouths opened uncontrollably...

"The seal on the moon was left by your Holy Lord?!" Lin Qiye's eyes were full of disbelief.
