Chapter 193 The Deception of the Gods
Moreover, everything He just did could be seen clearly by Mona in this body.
This is the physique of a goddess. Even if it has been diluted for who knows how many generations, it is still a goddess.
What is a goddess?
Born with divine bones, even if one cannot cultivate to become a god, he is the best vehicle for gods to descend to the mortal world.
If it weren't for the divine bone in her body, Yang Xiangwei wouldn't have been able to cross regions and descend so easily.
To give an example, for Yang Xiangwei, the domain is a network world with network lines laid out. Her consciousness can reach any place along the network cables, and can also obtain signals from any place through the network cables.
But if there is no place to lay network cables, it means there is no network signal, and it is difficult for Yang Xiangwei to reach her destination. But if a goddess appeared at this time, she would be equivalent to a movable signal tower. Once she sent a signal to Yang Xiangwei, Yang Xiangwei would not only be able to receive it, but also respond.
So whenever Mona prayed to Him, Yang Xiangwei would receive it immediately and give a response.
He chose to "descend" because he sensed that Mona was in critical condition.
It’s a pity that the quality of Mona’s divine bone is too poor and it is almost diluted to nothing. Yang Xiangwei almost couldn't come over, so he had no choice but to make his spiritual sense more focused and cast a shadow over to avoid hurting her.
The quality of the divine bones in the goddess' body determines how much divine power she can carry.
Mengna's body cannot bear too much of Yang Xiangwei's body, but it doesn't matter, "She" has incense value, so...
"She won't die? Really? You didn't lie to me, she really won't die?"
"……Won't!"
Mengna's mother cried with joy. She told Yang Xiangwei that her ancestors left behind a myth that said that women from the Meng family could "summon" gods.
But outsiders don’t know that the so-called “summoning” comes at a price. The power of gods is too strong, how can mortal bodies bear it?
So, every time a summon is made, one person dies.
She is really scared!
Her daughter is her only relative. If her daughter dies, she doesn’t know what is the meaning of living alone in this world.
Yang Xiangwei looked at her and sighed, then told her again that her daughter would be fine. Although the arrival of gods will indeed affect the human bodies that carry them, as long as they are properly controlled and not too many gods are cast, this kind of damage can be avoided as much as possible.
In the myths and legends left by the ancestors of the Meng family, the reason why "one person dies every time a summoning occurs" is because the gods cast too much divine power.
To put it bluntly, the god invited by the ancestor of the Meng family did not care about the life or death of the carrier at all, and the divine power cast exceeded the carrying capacity of that body, so that body collapsed.
Mona's mother was shocked.
So, in fact, "summoning" the gods does not require death, but the gods don't care, so they have to pay the price with their lives? !
Why? !
Why would God do that to them? !
Even though the gods had fallen for so many years, their family had not betrayed the gods. They were just trapped in the hardships of reality and had to hide in the city under an assumed name.
They also worry that after their family members die, their sacred bones will be "used" by evil people, so they hold "cremation" after the death of every relative in order to leave the gods with the last bit of dignity.
But now the mountain god told her...
"Why?"
Tears rolled down Mona's mother's eyes, she was in great pain.
Yang Xiangwei was a little embarrassed. He was not the god their family had worshipped before, so how did He know?
If there weren't indeed divine bones in Mona's body, Yang Xiangwei almost thought that gods had never appeared in this world. So, now God appeared once, but then disappeared?
When did it disappear?
How did it disappear?
Why is it that even Ming Qi, who has the memories of his previous life, knows nothing about it?
"Aqiu..."
Ming Qi sneezed and thought that the fire was too small and he had caught a cold, so he added a few more pieces of firewood.
He also pulled the fox closer to himself to make it warmer.
Fox looked impatient, but did not refuse.
…
"I don't know, maybe you should ask the gods your family worshipped before!"
"But aren't you all gods? Can't you answer me?"
Yang Xiangwei could feel the pain and hesitation in Mona's mother's heart, as if some belief had collapsed.
Yang Xiangwei said, "No! I am not the god of this world. I accidentally stepped into this world after falling asleep. To me, this world is a completely unfamiliar world. After I came to this world, I found that there are no gods in this world. If it weren't for the appearance of your daughter, I would not have known that gods had been born in this world."
"You are a god from another world?! When you came to this world, there were no gods in this world?! Are you saying that the original gods of this world... have really all fallen?! But..." Mona's mother said in shock, "No wonder our family has failed to summon the gods so many times. Over and over again, for hundreds of years, we have been trying to summon the gods and want to awaken the gods... So, did my ancestors die in vain?"
"For the past few hundred years, you have been trying to summon... gods?" Don't tell Him that they have been trying to summon a god.
God is dead, so even if you offer countless sacrifices, He will not be able to respond.
"Yes, we have been trying to summon the gods! At first, we believed in Artemis, the moon goddess. She was a very beautiful goddess. More than a dozen people sacrificed their lives, but we still couldn't summon her. Later, our ancestors became desperate and began to summon other gods... Athena, the goddess of wisdom, war and art, Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, Ares, the god of war, Hephaestus, the god of fire and craftsmen..."
They had tried almost all of the Old Gods.
But no god responded to them.
It’s not that no one has doubted the fall of gods, but some people ask: “That’s a god, how could a god fall?”
ah!
But such an idea is too disrespectful. That is the omnipotent God. How could a God fall?
As soon as I asked the question, I was scolded.
They would rather believe that they have been "abandoned" by God than believe that God has "fallen."
If it is the former, as long as they don't give up, they will be able to welcome the gods back one day.
But if it's the latter...
What Mona’s mother was crying about was the “latter”, the most terrifying and most unwilling to believe truth.
"So, are you the new god who came to take over this world? Why did you come only now…?"
Yang Xiangwei was silent for a while, and he sighed softly: "I don't know, when I woke up, I was already in this world. Moreover, my power is limited, and I can only move in the sacred mountain. If it weren't for the villagers who accidentally broke into the sacred mountain, knew of my existence, and were willing to believe in me, I'm afraid... I wouldn't be able to leave the sacred mountain until now, let alone be summoned here by your daughter. Summoning gods requires a price!"
"But... didn't you just say that my daughter wouldn't die?! Why... do I have to pay the price again?! Are you lying to me?"
Yang Xiangwei shook her head: "I didn't lie to you, I just paid the price for your daughter. I just said that someone had to believe in me first before I could be summoned here by your daughter... That is to say, I have to accumulate enough faith to use this faith to pay the price for your daughter to summon me.
Just like you humans have to spend money to buy things, you spend money, but I spend faith. Do you understand what I mean? ”
