Chapter 299 Choosing the Land of Faith
"It must have been due to some special reason that the true spirit dissipated prematurely."
After scanning the entire process with the "This Life" divine technique, Jiang Yan sighed slightly.
This is the strongest divine technique created by the third emperor. He doesn't believe there's any way to escape its observation.
So, although the result was somewhat strange, after ruling out all the impossibilities, the parents did indeed perish normally during that expedition.
"I never imagined that I, the dignified Lord of Reincarnation, who governs both the Holy Light and the Undead pantheons, would be unable to even resurrect my own parents."
Jiang Yan's feelings were somewhat complicated.
"My Lord, it's a pity that my strength is insufficient. I can only recreate the reversed images, but I cannot truly reverse time and space."
Ainart shook his head and said, "I've heard that if the Time God were to exert all his power, he could interfere with the past and perhaps even resurrect your parents."
"Even the true spirits have vanished, so the God of Time might not be able to help... but it is indeed a hope."
Jiang Yan seemed to be deep in thought; it seemed there was yet another reason why he had to reclaim the divine authority over time.
Since the highest-level Time God is not enough, perhaps he can reverse time and space once he breaks through to the highest level and combines it with the laws of time.
"Never mind, let's go."
Jiang Yan glanced at the starry sky again, shook his head, and communicated with all the realms in his heart.
The original purpose of returning to the real world was to resurrect my parents, but now that that has failed, there's no point in staying any longer. It's time to use my priority to choose a place of faith.
"Teleport to the 90th floor of the Abyss."
......
Three months later, in the City of Freedom.
A beam of teleportation dissipated.
"Why did it take so long to teleport this time?" Jiang Yan asked in surprise.
"There has been a minor mishap in the high-dimensional folding passage. Lord Jiang Yan, please proceed to the 90th floor as soon as possible to make your choice. The gods are waiting for your arrival."
Without making a sound, everyone changed the subject.
"Too."
Jiang Yan nodded slightly, no longer dwelling on these unimportant matters. He waved his hand, tearing open space and stepping into the ninetieth floor.
Instantly, the two divine towers, Holy Light and Undead, which had been calm, began to shine with dazzling light, reflecting their vast divine power.
The laws of heaven and earth automatically condensed into a majestic voice, resounding in everyone's ears:
"Welcome the Supreme God Lord Jiang Yan."
In an instant, all the beings from all realms on the 90th floor looked up, their eyes filled with either reverence or envy.
Jiang Yan could even clearly sense that a small portion of the believers had become more devout.
"This is a great treatment? Not bad. When competing with other pantheons in the future, we can gain an advantage from the start."
Swish, swish, swish!
At this moment, a series of whooshing sounds rang out, and hundreds of gods from various systems descended almost simultaneously.
"Welcome back, Lord Jiang..."
"Master Jiang truly deserves to be our role model..."
"I am ashamed to say that I was just about to go to provide assistance when I did not expect that the Alliance Leader had already single-handedly defeated the two great calamities. The title of the First Pantheon is truly well-deserved..."
What's going on?
Jiang Yan was slightly taken aback upon seeing this.
He didn't expect that the gods would not complain about his lateness, but instead would be incredibly enthusiastic.
He immediately laughed and said, "Not at all, it's just my duty as a deity. I thank you all for your generous help."
"Of course," the gods laughed.
In their view, it was a great deal to exchange a mere amount of resources for the other side to fight desperately against the powerful insect plague and the omnic plague.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Jiang Yan said seriously, "We've been delayed long enough. Now that everyone's here, let's begin."
"That's how it should be."
As the gods nodded, the light from hundreds of divine towers converged, and the power of all realms descended simultaneously.
[All pantheons have agreed. The first phase of the main quest rewards will now be awarded: the right to choose an additional Faith Land.]
A vast projection of a starry sea appeared before the gods, with hundreds of stars floating and sinking within it.
“Each of these stars is a great world, formed by merging the most outstanding planes from each era selected by various realms, and preserved from the abyss at a great cost.”
“Every world is teeming with life and has a rare and abundant reserve of resources.”
“Even in the most barren of these worlds, if the average faith can be raised to above fanaticism, it would be enough to unleash the full power of three ordinary true gods. If the average faith can be raised to above piety, it would be enough to unleash the full power of a supreme being.”
"And the richest of these worlds is more than ten times less resource-rich than the poorest."
"Of course, there is one thing I must tell you. Once these worlds are unsealed, they will also be observed by the Abyss. And the more prosperous a world is, the more attention it will attract from the Abyss."
"You must, while resisting the abyss, build up the land of faith and accumulate enough strength to prepare for a full-scale war with the abyss in the future."
"Next, please welcome the first and second place winners of the Sequence Competition, Jiang Yan, the Lord of the Holy Light and the Undead Pantheon, to choose their place of faith first."
Listening to the accounts from all realms, Jiang Yan quickly scanned each star with his divine sense, and brief pieces of information appeared in his mind.
"Number 1, unnamed. Diameter: 930 billion light-years. A magical world, with approximately 3.6 billion highly intelligent beings."
"Number Two, Unnamed. Diameter: 163.2 billion light-years. Technological world, with approximately 990,000 highly intelligent beings."
"Number Three..."
The largest of these civilizations has a diameter of nearly one trillion light-years, while the smallest is less than 90 billion light-years, encompassing almost all types of civilizations.
Jiang Yan hesitated for a moment, then chose the largest and fourth largest of them.
The reason is simple: one of these worlds is a fantasy world, which is similar to the mainstream of the worlds today and is the easiest to accept faith in.
One is a world primarily focused on the biological aspect, teeming with the most living beings. He glanced at it briefly and found it to be a world of survival of the fittest, teeming with various monstrous beasts that primarily devour others. Undoubtedly, it would be ideal for the undead to wreak havoc and replenish and modify their forces.
The second and third worlds are primarily technologically advanced. In these environments, the beings are much more difficult to achieve devout faith, just like in the real world.
The other is a rare and bizarre side world. Although the world is vast, the number of living beings is actually less than ten.
"I choose number one and number four," Jiang Yan said.
"Do you confirm your choice, Lord Jiang Yan?"
"confirm."
"Your choice is complete. You now have the right to enter and name both worlds."
A powerful surge of energy coursed through the space, and two sealed star maps materialized, gently falling into Jiang Yan's hands.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the coordinates of the two worlds were recorded, and their locations seemed to lie on another unknown dimension.
"Naming them... 'The World of Holy Light' and 'The World of the Dead'? Wouldn't that be a bit too ordinary..."
Jiang Yan was caught in a dilemma.
