Chapter 985: I'd Like to Ask You a Question
I have been in the myriad realms for some time now.
But this was the first time Gu Heng had seen what the real "myriad worlds" looked like.
Within the territories of countless civilizations, everything was not much different from the lower-level Origin Realm. After all, the masses were more familiar with everything from the past. But in the myriad realms, it was difficult to distinguish between the sun and moon, or day and night.
The number of stars floating in the sky is indescribable, and the sea of stars itself is not dark, but rather appears bizarre and surreal.
"so big……"
Gu Heng muttered to himself.
This was the first time he had directly understood the true nature of all the heavens and myriad worlds.
This macroscopic visual impact filled Gu Heng with a strange feeling.
Moreover, this is only the view outside the passage. As for what the entire universe looks like, Gu Heng felt that he would probably never have the chance to see it.
Gu Heng looked down at his feet and saw that same sea of stars.
He didn't even know how to tell directions, since in this kind of place, it seemed that all ways of giving directions were meaningless.
There are places to go in all directions.
Of course, his vision wasn't limited to stars and points of light.
The sea of stars contains everything.
A silver river, resembling veins, stretched across the landscape. It was a real "river," not an illusion formed by starlight gathering together. Further away, Gu Heng could see a golden tree, but it was so far away that it was almost blurry in his eyes.
"Are there still golden trees in all these heavens and myriad worlds?"
Gu Heng looked at Gu Xitong.
“That is not a ‘tree,’ but a manifestation of the fortune of the Buddhist civilization, which the Buddhist civilization calls the ‘Tree of Enlightenment on the Other Shore.’”
What, then, is the embodiment of fortune?
"That is the epitome of the will of all beings in an entire civilization. The embodiment of the fortune of the Buddha civilization is the tree of enlightenment on the other shore. Other civilizations are naturally different."
"For example, the embodiment of the fortune of a technological civilization is a series of constantly changing numbers, while that of the dragon civilization is a real dragon with a body shape resembling a jiao."
Gu Xitong's explanation was simple, and Gu Heng quickly understood it.
"Is this manifestation of destiny... real?"
Whether it is true or not is irrelevant; it is merely a kind of reliance for civilized people. It has no meaning in itself, but if civilized people think it has meaning, then it has meaning.
Gu Xitong spoke calmly.
Hear the words.
Gu Heng wasn't too surprised.
This is actually a very simple principle, and he should be able to understand it.
Anyway, everyone brainstormed together, and then it actually happened; that's roughly how it went.
"Wait, if something as invisible and intangible as luck actually exists, then I'm very curious, how does technological civilization explain the existence of this thing?"
Gu Heng stared at Gu Xitong: "I feel that science cannot explain this."
"Yes."
"The form and essence of the manifestation of Qi (vital energy) are illogical, and technological civilization cannot provide a precise concept or explanation for it."
“But that doesn’t prevent technological civilization from accepting its existence,” Gu Xitong said.
"..."
Gu Heng had no choice but to accept this answer.
Technological civilization has brazenly accepted the existence of things that science cannot explain; one would say that it is highly adaptable.
Since even the system couldn't explain it, there was no need to think about it too much, and he had figured it out.
The point isn't where this so-called embodiment of fortune comes from; the important thing is to know that it truly exists.
Anyway, Gu Heng felt that none of this mattered much.
In that vast and bizarre starry sea, he was nothing more than a tiny ant.
For now, let's maintain this state and move towards the direction of the Imperial Court civilization.
It will arrive in seventeen days.
...If one can see the chaotic primordial light in the sea of stars, it means that one has approached the territory of the immortal civilization.
The Immortal Path civilization has always been the most bustling place.
now.
The Purple Sun Division within the Jade Emperor Palace territory, one of the six outer heavens of the Immortal Dao Civilization.
Lingxuzi, the head of the department, had just seen off an old friend who had come from afar.
He pondered for a long time before finally making up his mind.
Lingxuzi flicked his whisk and waited respectfully in the courtyard.
soon.
The person he had been waiting for arrived.
"Palm."
Ling Xuzi opened his eyes and saw that Qin Yiyao was already standing in front of him.
"Alright, you've arrived." He only casually sensed the power emanating from Qin Yiyao before he couldn't help but laugh so hard his eyebrows and beard trembled.
"Yi Yao, you have only been in my Jade Emperor Palace for a little over ten years, yet you have already crossed the World Realm and touched the Path of Creation. I dare say that since the Jade Emperor Palace was established, we have never taken in such a monstrous genius as you!"
"This really brings honor to my Jade Emperor Palace!"
Lingxuzi never hesitated to praise others.
He wasn't just making things up out of thin air.
Qin Yiyao has only been a member of the Jade Emperor Palace for a little over ten years. In terms of seniority, she is the least experienced. However, in terms of strength and talent, Qin Yiyao is no longer a big name that a small place like the Purple Sun Department can afford.
Now, even the Jade Emperor Palace Master, who is also the Lord of Zixiao Heaven, has taken notice of this rapidly rising star.
Even those beings who are high above, only a step away from being gods, have already cast their gaze down upon her. Ling Xuzi could already foresee that he would probably not be able to keep her in the future.
"You flatter me, Minister."
Qin Yiyao simply replied with one sentence, which was always the same when faced with praise from Ling Xuzi or others.
I will say no more, nor will I reveal any more emotions.
"Hehe, I won't say much. Your talent is so terrifying, you have a bright future ahead of you. Even the Palace Master has already noticed you."
"My Purple Sun Tribe is merely a small temple for you to rest in."
Lingxuzi sighed.
"..."
Qin Yiyao frowned slightly, naturally understanding the implied meaning in Ling Xuzi's words.
She had been deliberately suppressing her progress, but unexpectedly, she still caught the eye of a powerful figure in the Jade Emperor's Palace.
There's no way around it. Even if you want to keep a low profile, there's a limit.
Actually, it was because her master had laid such a good foundation for her, and he fed her top-notch elixirs and medicines. This accumulated strength was beyond her control. Even though Qin Yiyao had tried to suppress it, she couldn't withstand this irresistible force.
Qin Yiyao always remembered what Enlai Ke had told her.
She wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible.
So far, everything she has done has been within reasonable limits. Even though she has suppressed herself to the extreme, she has inevitably become a top genius in comparison.
What to do next is something she'll have to figure out for herself...
"By the way, I asked you to come here because there's something I'd like you to do for me."
Ling Xuzi sighed and got to the point.
"This is a personal request of mine. If you don't want to do it, I won't force you." Qin Yiyao raised an eyebrow.
"Please speak, Minister."
Ling Xuzi took out a precious jade, which shimmered with a warm light that flickered between light and shadow.
"This is my disciple's life-soul jade..."
"It lit up."
