The scene was quite bizarre at one point.
Fang Xiu, the true god, hadn't figured out the situation yet, so he didn't speak. Seeing that the true god was right in front of them and hadn't said a word, the people of the divine kingdom dared not speak either. Who knew what kind of temper the true god had? If they said the wrong word and angered the true god, then in the vast Southern Yue and even the entire Yunzhou, they probably couldn't find a single person who would dare to avenge them.
The group stared at each other blankly as time ticked by.
Under the watchful eye of the true God, no one dared to leave, and no one wanted to stay.
This atmosphere made Fang Xiu frown slightly. He had never expected this situation. In his mind, even if he really found the Divine Kingdom, there were only two possibilities: either he would be completely inconspicuous, or he would be discovered to have come from the Land Forsaken by the Gods and might even be targeted because of the strange aura he carried.
After all, the people in the divine kingdom should all be practicing visualization techniques. This is easy to deduce. Suppose that Fang Xiu becomes a god one day and turns the Xia Kingdom into his own divine kingdom, then he will inevitably promote his own visualization techniques in the Xia Kingdom and ask the people of the Xia Kingdom to provide him with faith. You can't expect the true god to bless you, and then you won't even give your faith, can you?
Seeing the True God frown, everyone's hearts tightened. Damn it! Did any of you do something that displeased the True God? If you want to die, don't drag us down with you!
Suddenly, Fang Xiu spoke.
Who are you?
His voice wasn't loud, but in the quiet room, it was loud enough for everyone to hear.
The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, and finally, a seventh-rank man dressed in a fiery red Daoist robe braced himself and replied, "Junior Huo Yunting Xiao Huo greets... Senior."
Xiao Huo pondered for a long time before finally addressing Fang Xiu as "senior." The main reason was that he had never met a true god and didn't know how to address him respectfully. However, in Kyushu, strength was paramount, and it wouldn't be taboo to call a true god "senior" in person.
senior?
This form of address made Fang Xiu frown again. Was this the rule of the Divine Kingdom? A seventh-rank cultivator calling a fifth-rank cultivator a senior? Was this some kind of friendly treatment towards the weak?
He certainly wouldn't think that way; there must be some misunderstanding.
I am a person of the present world who accidentally entered the special space of the Divine Ruins while venturing into the other shore. Then, I was transferred to the Divine Kingdom through the Divine Ruins. The fact that these people respect me so much cannot be because of my present world. If it were because of my present world, then, in a sense, I should be the junior of the people of the Divine Kingdom.
After all, the people of the divine kingdom are all ancient people who were taken away by the ancient gods and immortals.
Therefore, the only reason why everyone is so respectful is because of the Divine Ruins.
In a short while, Fang Xiu figured out the cause and effect.
Xiao Huo had no idea what Fang Xiu was thinking. He only knew that after he announced his name, the True God frowned. Could it be that Huo Yunting's ancestors had a grudge against the True God?
I can't be this unlucky! My damned ancestors, what happened to my ancestors has nothing to do with me!
"Where is this place?" Fang Xiu asked again. Although he had followed the guidance of Jiang Mengyue's jade pendant and should have arrived in Yunzhou, he himself was not sure where he was, so he needed to confirm.
"Replying to Senior, this is Yunzhou territory, specifically the southernmost part of Yunzhou, the Nanyue lands." Xiao Huo's expression was slightly strange. How could a True God not even know the location?
What are you doing here?
“Every ten years, the Divine Ruins erupt with malevolent energy, at which time fragments of immortal artifacts and magical treasures are spewed out, and we collect these fragments here.”
As Xiao Huo spoke, he took out a palm-sized fragment of a celestial artifact and respectfully displayed it.
This answer was truly unexpected for Fang Xiu. Wasn't this just someone who came to pick up trash?
He recalled the broken immortal artifacts he had taken from the skeletons in the Divine Ruins. He took those broken artifacts so that he could use the power of time reversal to restore them to their perfect state in the future. What were these people doing with the fragments of immortal artifacts?
"It's so badly damaged, do you perhaps have a way to restore it?"
Looking at the fragment in Xiao Huo's hand, it was so damaged that it was impossible to tell what it originally was from its appearance. It was so broken that even turning back time would take a lot of effort.
Xiao Huo felt increasingly strange, but he still patiently explained, "It is impossible to restore it completely, but some ancient laws remain inside. I can use the fragments to comprehend them."
Seeing Xiao Huo chatting so enthusiastically with the True God, the others felt that Fang Xiu didn't seem like the kind of person who would kill someone at the slightest disagreement, and they all mustered their courage.
The master of Fairy Miaoyin fully utilized the advantages of being a female cultivator, smiling radiantly. Her smile was neither obsequious nor seductive, yet it exuded charm that made it difficult for anyone to feel any ill will towards her, as if it had been rehearsed.
She stepped forward and bowed: "Junior An Linglong of Xuyue Palace greets True God. You have just been born, and the outside world has probably changed drastically. Xuyue Palace still has some influence in Nanyue. If True God does not abandon us, you may give Xuyue Palace any instructions you may have."
Upon hearing the title "true god," Fang Xiu finally understood why everyone was behaving so strangely; they had mistaken him for a deity.
However, he saw no need to explain this to the group.
Seeing An Linglong take the lead, the other major forces couldn't sit still any longer and expressed their willingness to serve the True God. After all, who wouldn't want to befriend a True God? If they could invite a True God to their own force, word would spread and the whole Yunzhou would take notice.
In the future, any hostile forces that want to attack will have to think twice.
When a person's influence reaches a certain level, their every word and action can affect the overall situation of the world.
For example, if a True God visits a certain power and casually remarks that their tea is quite good, within three days, the name of that tea will spread throughout Yunzhou, even attracting countless cultivators to scramble to buy it, just to taste the same tea as the True God.
