“She is perfectly capable of participating in this selection process and has a good chance of becoming the winner.”
"There seems to be some incredible power hidden within her body. Let her try it out; perhaps this is the time for us to reconcile with the ancient times."
"I agree!"
"No, you're all crazy! We haven't even figured out her background yet, why are you making such a hasty decision!"
“Crick, you know, we’ve waited too long. If we don’t get confirmation from those ancient beings this time, they will disappear.”
"After they disappear, we will never be able to explore the mysteries of the ancient times again."
"No, we absolutely cannot let them disappear. Even if they do, we must make them reconcile with us and tell them where our ultimate destination lies."
“Crick, we’re getting old. What we couldn’t do back then, this generation has to do, and this girl is our hope.”
"She doesn't seem to have any major advantages other than strong mental power."
"Yes, she looks so frail, delicate, and silly. I suggest we hold this selection on Sin Island."
Hua*frail and delicate*slow and silly*Rong: _(:3」∠)_
So what have you been whispering about for so long?
"Gentlemen, now you can tell me what you're talking about? What is this selection process you're referring to? As someone directly involved, I think I have the right to know."
At this moment, an old man, who appeared to be the leader of these elders, said, "Of course, my lovely girl, do you know this? This world is vast. You may not know that there are countless worlds in this world, perhaps because you come from a small world. So how exactly were they formed? Do you want to know?"
Hua Rong shook her head: "I don't want to."
Anyway, she already knows.
It was simply something that only someone who was powerful enough could achieve.
The old man choked for a moment, then said, “No, young lady, that’s what you’re thinking. In short, we need to select some people with strong spiritual power and sufficient wisdom to go to the ancient times. That’s right, the ancient times. At that time, countless gods lived high in the heavens, looking down on the world. Countless races vied for glory. It was a glorious era.”
"But now, it's completely different. Now we need to rely on all kinds of machines and external forces to reach that level."
"However, as you know, even so, our era is still not as prosperous as it used to be."
Hua Rong's gaze remained unchanged as he said, "It was indeed that prosperous, but that era is still a thing of the past. The course of history is irreversible; it is a necessary price for biological evolution. Why dwell on the past? Wouldn't it be better to look to the future?"
The old man choked again, and the others objected.
"Do you, a girl, understand what the spirit of research is? We need to know the origin of the world and find all the great things of the past. This is our mission. Don't you want humanity to be better?"
"Humans are already good enough," Hua Rong thought. Now that everything is under human feet, what more could be wrong?
"It's alright, isn't it? In this vast and bustling world, we are but a drop in the ocean. Those worlds are merely branches created out of the mercy of that great being."
"That kind of power, I yearn for it, but it has long been lost in the long river of history. We need to pay a very high price to go back to the past every hundred years and have a dialogue with those beings."
"However, as you just heard, we have not yet gained their approval. They think we are unqualified, so we still don't know those secret techniques, or the reason why they are so powerful."
"And this time, it's the last time, so if we can't reconcile with them and get those things from them, we will lose that history forever."
“When those of us who know the truth die, that history will be completely covered up. If you think knowledge can be passed down, then you are sorely mistaken.”
"Without witnessing it firsthand, there's no way to truly understand the greatness of that era. Even if it's just a verbal transmission, it's still a complete annihilation of a glorious past."
Hua Rong remained silent. The thing these people were talking about sounded so much like the primordial era.
A place she had never been before.
Pangu, who separated heaven and earth; Nuwa, who is said to have created humankind; and various other beings that could destroy the world.
"I agree to join the selection. So, what reward will I receive if I successfully become your choice? And what reward will I receive if I successfully reconcile with those beings in the end?"
She spoke directly, making it clear that these people needed her powerful mental strength.
Therefore, she can also rightfully demand a return.
"Judging from your expression, little girl, it seems you want something,"
Hua Rong nodded, touching the seemingly ordinary necklace around her neck.
"I want to know if there are gods in this world? Do they have tombs?"
Her words silenced everyone; they probably never imagined that Hua Rong would ask such a question right away.
Soon, the old man said, "Young lady, this is indeed a perplexing problem. All I know is that at the end of the universe, there is indeed a burial ground known as the strongest forbidden area in the myriad worlds. If you successfully return, perhaps we will try our best to send you there to see it."
Although he didn't know why the girl in front of him was concerned about this issue, he still chose to tell her the truth.
