Chapter 242 God’s Domain 1
In the beginning of all things, chaos was divided into two energies: the pure energy rose to become the heavens, and the turbid energy sank to become the earth. Then all things differentiated, and the ancient goddess Nuwa created all living beings.
Through various evolutions, all living beings gradually differentiated into several major species and factions. Political power was about to emerge, and the distinction between different species was clear, leading to conflict.
As the ancient gods gradually disappeared, the divine clans, born in response to the will of the ancient gods, gradually emerged, with Brahma being the representative figure of their clan.
Brahma inherited the wisdom of the ancient gods from birth, and has traveled through countless worlds for millions of years, witnessing too many beings killing each other.
He realized that only a supreme ruler could end this chaotic era, so he united with a group of divine clans to establish the divine realm and began working to restore order to all worlds.
However, there are countless beings in the myriad worlds, which have further diversified into countless species, and each species has a different degree of intelligence and evolution, and none of them submits to the others.
Since words and arguments are useless, the only option left is to use force to suppress them. The Shenzhi clan has been able to inherit a portion of the power of the ancient gods since its birth, it's just a matter of how much or how little they can inherit. Therefore, the Shenzhi clan is inherently stronger than other races.
Since suppressing this method by force was feasible, Brahma led the gods to open up a new path. From then on, if they encountered anyone who did not submit, they would beat them until they submitted.
As the divine realm gradually gained power, there were always those who were envious or resentful of the powerful. Therefore, it was not long before divisions emerged within the divine realm and intensified.
The war of the gods became inevitable.
The order of all worlds had just begun to take shape when it was destroyed by this great war.
After the great war of the gods, the divine realm was severely damaged, and Brahma was also greatly weakened. Not long after, he fled to heaven, and the myriad realms returned to a state of chaos.
As the old gods who inherited the will of the ancient gods gradually disappeared, the divine realm also welcomed its first new god who was not born in accordance with the will of heaven, but was born from the essence of heaven and earth.
(ps: It can be understood that the old gods were formed from light condensed in the void, and were also reborn from the ancient gods, while the new gods were formed by gathering energy, and were more like being conceived from all the worlds.)
……
The first person Xingye saw when she opened her eyes at the moment of her birth was Fenglan God Venerable Yanzhi, and her consciousness told her that she liked this person.
But what does it mean to like?
Xingye stared blankly at the person in front of her, while Yanzhi simply reached out his hand to her, and Xingye naturally took it.
Yan Zhi led her down from the Fire-Bathed Platform, where gods had been born since ancient times.
No sooner had they left than another deity appeared on the Fire Platform: Zhouyang.
The newly born god has no memory, no origin, and only remembers his own name.
Like a newborn, but with the body of an adult, it retains the same appearance at birth and until death.
However, he was divinely wise and quick-witted, able to learn anything with ease, and was born with compassion and extremely strong perception. However, he had never experienced the seven emotions and six desires, and while he was compassionate, he was also indifferent.
Born at the same time as Xingye and Zhouyang, and being a new god in the divine realm, he was naturally well cared for and treated with great care by the old gods.
As the first new god to be born, Starry Night is naturally exceptional.
At the moment of its birth, a four-petaled orchid suddenly grew in all parts of the divine realm, forming vast fields that were quite beautiful. Even the ancient gods did not have such a spectacle when they were born, and it was regarded as an auspicious sign. Later, this flower was given the name Flowing Leaf Star Orchid, which matched the starry night.
Over the next ten thousand years, more than a dozen new gods emerged, and the divine realm slowly recovered, but it was still far from the glory before the Great War of the Gods. Moreover, their current situation was not optimistic, as the world outside the divine realm remained in chaos.
"Those who offend my divine realm, shall be killed!"
This is the sentence she said most often.
Compared to the "humans" in the myriad worlds who have lived for hundreds of thousands of years or even lived almost as long as heaven and earth, Xingye is probably still very young. She was only born a little over ten thousand years ago, and to these "humans" she is no different from a baby.
However, she possesses exceptional talent. Whether in martial arts or the application of magic, she surpasses even these ancient gods in skill despite lacking the inheritance of the ancient gods. She can even comprehend many self-created techniques and develop them into a complete system.
Gods reach adulthood at 20,000 years old, while she is only about 10,000 years old. Yet, she can kill those who invade the divine realm as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.
She was like a god born from the collective consciousness of all realms, destined to end this chaotic world, terrifyingly powerful.
Perhaps she really could complete the path that Brahma didn't have time to walk, and that's exactly what happened.
In a span of 100,000 years, she traversed the path that Brahma had been trying to walk for hundreds of thousands of years.
All realms are settled, only the realm of gods remains unique.
As Xingye, who was sitting cross-legged and resting, slowly opened her eyes, what jumped into her eyes was Zhouyang, who was wearing a red and gold dress and staring at her with his hands supporting his chin.
Seeing her open her eyes, Zhou Yang immediately perked up and leaned closer with a grin: "Xing'er, you're awake?"
This scene has happened countless times. Every time she rests, Zhou Yang always stays by her side and never disturbs her.
"What's the matter?"
Seeing his mysterious expression, Xingye felt no emotion whatsoever.
They have been together for 100,000 years and know each other inside and out. Every time he does this, it's either because he brings Xingye something that he thinks is new and interesting, or he has prepared some "surprise" and insists on taking her to see it.
He was a god born on the same day as her, so why did he always act like those people from beyond the realm, expressing his emotions and desires so intensely? There was no god in the entire divine realm like him, was there?
Oh, it seems he's only like this in front of her. He always acts very serious with other gods. Otherwise, there wouldn't be rumors in the realm that the two gods are hard to get along with.
"Go to the Water Mirror, there's something for you to see."
Xingye remained silent for a while, then stood up, a hint of helplessness showing on her face, despite her unchanging expression.
"Let's go."
The Divine Realm was built in the void and chaos, where only the shimmering stars could be seen year-round, with no distinction between day and night. The Water Realm was a space carved out on the western side of the Divine Realm, with a teleportation gate connecting the two places.
Like some places outside the realm, the area within the water realm is vast, with mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, and the sun and moon are clearly distinguished. Some deities who dislike the indistinguishable day and night in the realm also move here to live.
Although the scenery in the region is beautiful, it can get boring to look at the same thing for thousands of years. It's nice to change things up once in a while.
As gods of all realms, they can't be deprived of even these basic hobbies. Now that a new god is in charge, he's not some closed-off mortal.
Upon entering the watery realm, Xingye followed Zhouyang to the meadow where they often rested. There was another person waiting for them ahead.
Before the man could turn around, Xingye recognized him; she never mistook his aura.
"Master, why are you here as well?"
Yan Zhi turned around and looked at the two of them with a warm expression: "I heard that Zhou Yang found some rare things from beyond the realm. He insisted that I come here. I knew that he would definitely come to find you as well. We've been waiting until it's dark."
"Now that you're all here, you can speak now."
Zhou Yang smiled and said mysteriously, "Xing'er, God, please wait a moment."
Then he pointed to the horizon and said, "Look."
The two men turned their gaze to the direction he was pointing, and then a beam of light rose from the bottom to the sky and suddenly exploded, filling the entire night sky with brilliant flames. Then, more lights rose and exploded.
Clusters upon clusters, imprinted against the dark night sky, so beautiful they seem unreal.
"So, the outer realms have become so wonderful. We've missed out on so much..."
The three of them stood side by side watching the magnificent fireworks, and none of them uttered another word.
After the world was at peace, the gods rarely left the divine realm.
Everything has its order, and they are merely the ones maintaining that order. They have no need to concern themselves with the petty squabbles from beyond the borders.
Over time, apart from the necessary foreign affairs, they really didn't know much about developments outside their own territory, or rather, they didn't need to know.
They were born as gods, and they do not receive offerings from outside the realm. Maintaining the stability of all worlds is out of a sense of responsibility and the will of their ancestors. As long as it does not threaten the divine realm, they will not interfere.
Even after the fireworks had burned out, the three of them did not leave, but instead sat down on the spot.
Zhou Yang asked first, "How is this thing?"
Yan Zhi nodded and replied, "It shines beautifully against the night sky."
"I originally intended to use magic instead, but it's nowhere near as beautiful as what they made themselves. Xing'er, are you satisfied with today's gift?"
The sun looked expectantly at the starry night.
A few smiles appeared on Xingye's face: "Hmm, you put a lot of thought into this, didn't you?"
Zhou Yang smiled shyly: "I'm glad Xing'er likes it."
