Su Deng suddenly realized that this instance was her final showdown with the God Lord, so the God Lord couldn't possibly not participate.
Everything Linglong said might actually be true.
However, it is controlled by a divine program, not by a real Linglong.
But regardless of whether it's true or not, she can only win this game.
We can't lose!
Su Deng was wary, but she didn't show it on her face and continued to listen to Linglong.
Linglong led her around and gave her a tour.
It tells the story of Guixu, the Lord of Guixu, the Underworld, the Merfolk, and the souls that come here.
The Lord of Guixu lived in seclusion in the Underworld for hundreds of years as Meng Po, before disappearing without a trace. However, Linglong and Zhou Xuanzhi both believe that one day she will return.
When Ling disappeared, the deal with Meng Po was not completed. Therefore, Zhou Xuanzhi replaced Ling as the new Meng Po, guarding the Yellow Springs and waiting for her to return.
After Ling left, Hades felt that the realm of destiny was too rigid and boring, so he learned from the human world and made reforms.
Even the Meng Po soup that makes ghosts forget their past lives no longer needs to be cooked by humans. After it was made technologically advanced, Zhou Xuanzhi sealed himself in Meng Po Village, and even the eight hundred miles of other shore flowers withered.
Until Su Deng appeared.
Su Deng thought that it was because she or Yuechan wanted to save the King of the Underworld that they disturbed Meng Po who had been awakened.
But at this moment, she suddenly realized that what had awakened Meng Po, that is, Zhou Xuanzhi, from the seal was not the King of the Underworld being imprisoned, but herself.
It's her face.
It was her resemblance to Ling, the Lord of Guixu, or their shared origins, that led Meng Po to break the seal and bring out the Mirror of Reincarnation to help save the King of the Underworld.
Otherwise, knowing that Hades and the King of Hell had made a deal, and knowing that Hades would not be imprisoned so easily, he would naturally not have come out to participate.
"Cough—"
Just then, a loud shout came from the palace in the distance.
It looks like a whale.
Linglong turned around and said, "Master is awake. I'll take you to see her."
The palace looks dreamlike and magnificent from the outside, and even more luxurious inside.
Everywhere you look, there are seashells, pearls, and various jade ornaments.
It dazzles the eye.
Deep inside the palace, in the bedroom, there were no beds or other furnishings, but rather a huge seashell bed.
A woman with black hair and bright eyes, and an incomparably beautiful face, sat there, wearing a flowing light blue gauze dress, and adorned with jewelry made entirely of pearls and seashells.
Beautiful and ethereal, with a cool and aloof air like a fairy.
That face made Su Deng feel as if she were looking in a mirror.
"We meet again."
Ling looked at her and spoke first, smiling elegantly and gently, "Should I call you [Deng], or Su Deng?"
Su Deng said, "I am just Su Deng."
Ling paused for a moment, then laughed, "You are indeed just Su Deng."
She stood up, walked to Su Deng, looked at the face that was exactly the same as her own, and said in a clear voice, "You must be very curious as to why I look like you, and whether I am one of the fragments of [Deng], right?"
“I am not,” she said. “I am not one with [the lamp], and we have no connection whatsoever. From birth, I have inherited the title of Lord of the Ruins, and I am one of the oldest gods in the world.”
Ling looked at Su Deng and said clearly, word by word, "[Deng]'s face is stolen from me."
“Actually, it’s not really stealing.” Ling chuckled and said leisurely, “[Lamp] has no gender or appearance. When the gods shaped the lamp into a human, in order to control the balance, they learned from the male and female genders of humans, the yin and yang balance, and shaped the lamp and the cup into a male and a female. And they originally had no appearance.”
"It doesn't even have a soul."
"After all, a lamp is an object. Even if it has a spirit following the Creator, it will not have a soul after being shaped into a human. It is an empty shell. In order to make them better supervise each other's existence, God took two souls from me, two clean souls that were shaped."
These two souls are the foundation for shaping the [lamp].
“So… the two figures sculpted from the lamp were pieced together…” Su Deng’s gaze was deep.
Ling said, "Yes, but your core flame is still a lamp, which will shatter. But as long as the core flame doesn't go out, you won't die."
They won't die, but they'll keep looping in the game world.
Even this pretty face was stolen by [the light]...
Su Deng asked, "What about Yan Sizhan?"
"The original appearance of the lamp and the cup was created by the god who shaped them. The god intended for them to counterbalance each other, and only distinguished their genders, without regard to their appearances. However, both of them have very obvious imprints of lamp flame patterns on their skin and faces."
"Because the lamp absorbed too much of humanity's desires, good and evil, love and hate, two pure souls were born with their own thoughts and aesthetic sense, beyond what God had shaped them..."
To put it bluntly, the initial form of the lamps was like that of intelligent AI, but unlike AI, they had a body and soul fire, but no real soul. Their actions were all programmed by the gods.
Only after a soul is formed can thoughts arise and changes occur.
“At that time, I met the lamp once. The lamp imprinted my appearance as its own and sculpted a face for the lamp that she thought was as handsome and flawless as a god.”
"It is true that the Kingdom of Guixu was destroyed by Yan Sizhan, but at that time, he had not yet developed his own thoughts, nor was he called Yan Sizhan."
"Actually, you just need to know about these things; you don't need to think about them or do anything else."
Ling said, "It's just a face; it doesn't matter who looks like that. But you and Yan Sizhan were split off from the [Lamp] itself. The only connection you share is the undying soul fire within your bodies."
