Chapter 461 No Longer Protecting the World
The day of departure to the spirit world is approaching.
Lu Chaochao stayed with his parents all day long. His parents didn't know what they were busy with and often came home at night.
The sky on earth was dark, and crows were circling in the sky from time to time.
Although all countries have kept a tight lid on the situation, ordinary people have also noticed something unusual at sea.
A door that is about to open is suspended above the sea. Even from a distance, one could still hear the ghosts howling and the inexplicable prying.
A turbulent and terrifying whirlpool formed under the gate of the barrier, and countless marine creatures avoided it like snakes and scorpions, not daring to get close at all.
Lou Jintang led his men to guard the edge of the barrier, but some little monsters still took the opportunity to sneak in.
The fishermen dared not go out to sea again and could only sigh in despair.
The people were in panic.
Countless people began to pursue faith and ask for God's protection. There is a faint scent of incense and candles in the air.
They offered the things they were reluctant to eat to the gods.
"God, please save the world. The world needs you..."
"The evil is rampant, and we can't survive."
"Please ask the gods to punish the evil and bring peace back to the world!" People knelt on both sides of the road and prayed devoutly.
There were even people who knelt for three days and three nights, but there was still no movement. Their expectant eyes gradually became dim.
Lord Ming stood by the street with a sullen face and his fists slightly clenched, as if he was suppressing something.
He looked at the sky indifferently, and a tear fell.
General Lou, wearing armor and holding a long sword, whispered, "You sensed something, didn't you?"
Lord Ming said nothing.
"There is no breath of God. Can you feel it? There is no breath of God in this world!" Lord Ming held his throat, his eyes red and tears welling up in his eyes.
"During the years when we couldn't summon the gods, we could still feel the breath of gods and Buddhas in the sky! But now, there is not even a trace of sensation! Do you know what this means?" Lord Ming's voice was trembling and his whole body was shaking.
General Lou took a deep breath and said, "God has given up on us!"
"They've given up on us! They no longer accept our prayers!"
Lord Ming's smile was uglier than crying, he lowered his eyes and saw countless people hoping for protection. I was offering incense devoutly, but I didn't know...
I have been abandoned.
"They will notice it soon." As more and more evil spirits pass through the barrier, they will soon realize that something is wrong.
"The world will be in chaos before the barrier is opened."
General Lou said calmly: "Although I am a mortal, I also have the heart to protect the world. Even if I die on the battlefield, I have no fear and no regrets!"
Lord Ming paused, the confusion in his eyes disappeared, and there was a hint of determination.
"Yes! The Ming family will also defend the human world to the death!"
Within three days, people in the mortal world began to sense that something was wrong. The first to notice the abnormality were the priests in the palace.
They suddenly realized that the magic lamp could no longer be lit.
The magic lamp represents the will of God. He protects the human world and pays attention to every ounce of consciousness in the human world.
But now...
The little priest in a white robe knelt in front of the temple and lit the lamp countless times, but the magic lamp still did not respond.
"Is it because they are not pious enough? Perhaps, the incense is not enough and we need to kill pigs and sheep?" The little priest muttered softly, but the incense in the South Country is already the most prosperous.
Just as he was about to invite the imperial teacher, he suddenly saw the priests in the main sacrificial hall kneeling on the ground in fear, kowtowed like crazy, and their heads were bleeding.
"Something happened! Go and ask His Majesty and the Imperial Master for help. Something big has happened!" The high priest had never been seen so panicked.
"All the statues enshrined in the temple were broken into pieces."
"And the flowers offered to the gods have all withered... The koi in the pond in front of the temple have turned upside down. And... the divine paintings have lost their brilliance and become dim." The little priest started to cry as he spoke. He, he didn't dare to think...
The flowers offered before the gods are divine.
Divinity is given by God.
Now, the sacred flower has withered.
He shuddered, as if everything about God in this world was gradually disappearing.
When the imperial preceptor arrived with all the civil and military officials in the court, even the carved murals in the temple had lost their colors.
Everything is withered, without a trace of divinity. Everything in front of me has lost its original brilliance.
The Imperial Master's face turned pale, and he could barely hold the stone mirror in his hand. How is it possible? There is not a trace of divine aura in the temple.
It was as if God had abandoned them.
"Master, what's going on? Why... why is there such a bleak scene? This is a temple, could the evil spirit dare to cause trouble here?" The court officials only thought that the evil spirit had passed through the barrier and brought disaster to the world.
The Imperial Master said nothing, his face looking extremely heavy.
Lu Chaochao already had some guesses in his mind.
The evil energy in the world is getting heavier, as if all the turbid air between heaven and earth is coming towards the human world.
The divine world is giving up on the human world.
"Something happened outside the palace." The eunuch was sweating profusely from running. Seeing that the atmosphere in the palace was solemn, he had no choice but to go in.
"Your Majesty, there is commotion outside the palace."
"At this moment, many people are gathering in the streets. They are smashing the idols they worship at home. The people are in chaos."
"It all started today when an old blind fortune teller spread rumors on the street, saying that... God wanted to sacrifice tens of thousands of lives in order to restore peace to the three realms."
"It just so happened that the gods withdrew from the human world, and the mortals noticed it and started a commotion."
Lu Chaochao walked out of the palace and stood on the city wall.
There seems to be confusion.
Fortunately, they seem to still have a last glimmer of hope. Maybe, you just can't believe it?
However, the people are uneasy and the country is in turmoil.
Lu Chaochao paused, and immediately ordered someone to send her out of the palace to meet the old blind man outside the palace.
The old blind man was surrounded by angry people: "Stop talking nonsense! Don't spread rumors to confuse people!"
"The demon, it must be the demon that brings disaster to the world!"
"God is absolutely fair and loves the world. He will never harm innocent lives. What's more, there are countless living beings in the world. If God is like this, is he still a God? He is a devil!" It's more than just a devil! Even the devil dares not to destroy all living things in the world!
Countless rotten cabbages and rotten eggs were thrown at the demon.
However, when Lu Chaochao appeared, he suddenly paused.
He turned to face Lu Chaochao. Although his eye sockets were dark and there were no eyeballs, he seemed to be able to see her.
Blood was already gushing out of his mouth.
It seemed like it was a punishment for him revealing his secrets.
"In the mortal world, we must work together to overcome the crisis."
“Together…”
"Qi Xin..." As he spoke, his eyes widened and he fell to the ground, turning into a pool of blood.
Everyone retreated in horror, seemingly terrified.
Lu Chaozhao frowned slightly and touched the bloodstain on the ground. There was a breath of God...
However, it dissipated in an instant, and no trace of it could be found.
Lu Chaochao suddenly pursed her lips.
Today, Hanchuan is the leader of the God Realm. He overpowers all the gods and controls the God Realm. In the divine world, he controls absolute power and force.
But in the divine world, there are also righteous gods who are dedicated to practicing Taoism and protecting the human world.
They each separated a wisp of their soul and came to the human world to warn people.
