In the dense and dark forest, Athos was the first to wake up.
He looked at the nearby palace and the cracked walls, and thin beads of sweat broke out on Athos's body.
He had just entered the illusion dominated by the illusion and saw the true God.
In my mind is His vague figure and His gentle voice:
"Athos, I have known about your betrayal and your ambition for a long time, but this is normal. I would rather be betrayed by you than become another god."
"My child, don't follow my old path, give up everything here, give up all my serial talents, go to the earth, and achieve the status of god there."
"Or, die on the Earth Star."
"Never become a god on Earth. Even if you are a demigod, there are risks."
Athos stared blankly at a colorful eyeball in his hand. It was like a glass bead, quietly emitting a gentle halo, and was cold to the touch.
Several fragments flashed through Athos' memory.
I vaguely remember that I was so high-spirited that I united with the other four gods to attack the master of the illusion.
I vaguely remember that something big happened in the end. The sky cracked and the earth roared. It seemed like a war between gods. The Harvest Mother Goddess, the God of Death, and the Natural Disaster Talisman Demon came hand in hand.
Then, he couldn't remember anything.
Athos was silent and closed his eyes, his eyes flickering.
He stepped forward, picked up a stone, and put it in his pocket.
"Hmph, you hypocritical god, no wonder the first one died." Athos put his hands in his pockets, and then he saw the others slowly waking up.
The face under the mask of Pluto was frowning. She had just encountered an illusion. In the illusion, it seemed that ten years had passed. Even if she knew it was an illusion, she still could not escape.
Constantly fighting against the aberrations, constantly getting injured, constantly recovering, and the cycle starts over and over again.
The moment she came out, she almost couldn't control her breath.
"This is?"
"The Lord's illusion has the ability to turn into reality. I estimate that the Lord has created a condition for you to enter the Ancient Saint. Everything you experience in it is the ceremony for you to enter the Ancient Saint."
"When you go back and digest this illusion, you will be able to enter the stage of the Ancient Saint. He will use his final power to leave the mark of God on you, which will allow you to smoothly enter Sequence 4."
Athos explained coldly.
Pluto nodded slightly.
"Ah? What's wrong! Why did I enter Sequence 7 after just sleeping?" At this time, Zhu Dalong and others also woke up.
Not only him, but also Shen Xinghai entered Sequence 6 after experiencing an illusion.
"Let's go. He will sleep here forever. We don't want to be disturbed by outsiders. We have already got what we want." Athos sighed.
He always felt that there was a conspiracy of the gods hidden during this period, but with his current strength, he was simply unable to uncover it.
He remembered the cursed note in his arms, remembered the coordinates, and thought about it. After he became a demigod, he would go explore it.
"Lord Pluto, Li Wan has melted!" Zhu Dalong was still immersed in the joy of advancing. When he glanced around, he saw that Li Wan collapsed like a melted candle and turned into a pile of mud.
Pluto ducked over and stared blankly at the muddy water. After a while, he murmured:
"Don't worry."
"I know who he is."
"I have seen this method decades ago."
Chen! Du! Kang!
…
Xu Ye woke up from a deep sleep.
The sky turned pale, and unconsciously, the positions of the two moons were replaced by the two suns.
The sunrise in the east is golden, and the sunrise in the west is pale gold. They complement each other. The light dispels the darkness at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The dazzling but not blazing sunshine fell on this strange island and on Xu Ye's body.
"I'm back...what is this..."
Xu Ye lowered his head and discovered that there was a black and white bead on his palm, showing the pattern of Tai Chi.
Before he could recover, a message came from the beads, making him understand everything.
"This turns out to be the sixth eye of the Lord of Illusions. It possesses the power of truth and falsehood. It can turn everything real into false and false into real."
"It's a pity that with only three chances, the divine power contained in this eye will completely disappear."
"Is this specially given to me by the Master of Illusion?"
"It seems that Dr. Chen must have reached some agreement with the Master of Illusion, which is why he arranged for me to come there by such a 'coincidence'."
In the blink of an eye, he had a new idea:
I am here now as a result of the manipulations of the Sons of Scourge.
Does the Son of Natural Disaster want to harm me? The Lord of Illusions has known about this for a long time, so he buried his hand and quietly gave me his eyes.
The Son of Natural Disaster is a demigod, and his strength has not been reduced at all. Only the power of a true god can rival him.
No, that's not certain.
I still know too little.
But at least, having this god's eye undoubtedly provides me with three chances to save my life.
"Aye, there were strange fluctuations in your body just now. What happened?" Alice asked in confusion as she watched Xu Ye sometimes frown and sometimes tense his facial muscles.
Xu Ye told Alice and the gangster what had just happened.
"No wonder, let me tell you, why did Li Wan's mark disappear? It was actually used by that abominable Dr. Chen. Damn it, that pervert couldn't have used the mark to peek at my cat bathing." Alice covered her face.
Covered the chest.
Alice, isn't that the point?
The bandit said in a deep voice: "This is indeed a big problem. Why are the people on earth also looking for a new world and looking for the earth star? I suspect that they are bewitched by gods."
"Does their belief in the Dark Goddess mean that her power has penetrated into the earth?"
Xu Ye calmly analyzed: "The master of illusion seems to be able to connect the earth and the stars. At least the appearance of the girl is proof."
"Her name is Chen Tiantian, and she lives in Yunchuan."
"And here..."
"It has allowed even Huang Junxiang to travel through it. It seems that the connection between the Earth and the Earth has become closer and closer."
Xu Ye stood up. At this time, all the aberrant species had come ashore. Following at the end of the team was a jellyfish.
On the jellyfish's head, a familiar face stared at Xu Ye - Fang Xiang.
He felt slightly chilled.
I always feel that this world is full of weird things.
"Let's follow." Xu Ye waved.
After taking a short rest, everyone had regained their energy and cautiously followed the aberrations, slowly moving towards the depths of the forest.
…
Earth.
Daxia, Southwest.
A valley filled with shadows and no sunlight.
Chen Tiantian stood by the river, with red eyes, looking at the seven or eight-year-old boy floating on the bamboo raft. The boy's eyebrows were three-thirds like hers.
The little boy is Chen Tiantian's younger brother. He has just awakened naturally and became an awakened person.
At this time, the little boy was pale and lying on the bamboo raft. His carotid artery was cut, and blood spurted out like a pillar, falling into the river and spreading everywhere in an instant.
The river water gurgled and boiled.
The villagers standing on the shore held torches, and the beautiful red color illuminated the tired and pale faces.
Silence or numbness.
Chen Tiantian sobbed silently, her shoulders shaking more and more, and then she burst into tears.
"No no no!"
She dropped the torch in her hand and wanted to throw herself into the river to rescue her brother, but was stopped by the villagers.
"Tiantian, don't be impulsive!"
"Your brother has been chosen by the Emperor of Light for sacrifice. If you save him, we will never see the light. The sun will disappear from this land forever, and darkness will cover the crops, plants, animals, and us.
Die in batches."
"And your brother's death will bring us ten days of light."
The middle-aged man holding a torch and speaking narrowed his eyes slightly in pain. He is the head of Chenjia Village, and he is just an ordinary person.
In fact, all the people in the village are ordinary people.
Every once in a while, people in the village will have a naturally awakened person, who will then be sacrificed to the Emperor of Light.
"Goddess of Darkness, please save my brother, please save us!"
Chen Tiantian knelt on the ground helplessly, grabbing the ground with her head.
"Goddess, we can no longer hear our prayers."
"We have completely cut off contact with the outside world." The village chief murmured, "Outside the mountain, there is a lot of nuclear radiation and mutated animals. If we go out, we will definitely die."
"We can only wait for rescue from above, hoping someone can find us."
The girl's cheeks are a little pale and her cheeks are slightly sunken.
She watched her biological brother sink into the river little by little.
She watched the darkness, little by little, fade away in the sky.
A bright sun appeared above everyone's heads.
After experiencing darkness for half a month, the villagers of Chenjia Village finally bathed in the sunshine. They threw down their torches and knelt on the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
Chen Tiantian moved numbly and painfully.
She still held the torch, unwilling to enjoy the light and warmth she had gained in exchange for her brother's death.
Step by step, she walked towards the mountains.
More than ten years ago, the village chief dug out a portrait of the Dark Goddess from the mountains. That night, the villagers had the same dream.
Deep in the mountains, where the sun cannot shine, there is a road leading to the new world.
And today, Chen Tiantian embarks on this road again.
She still remembered that the figure of a young man appeared on the opposite side of the barrier last time, but since then, the boy has not appeared for a long time, and even the barrier may not have appeared for a long time.
She buried her head and stepped into the dividing line between light and darkness.
She held a torch and walked, feeling lost.
Suddenly, her pupils shrank.
A hundred meters away from her, on another layer of the cliff, the barrier formed by the wind and sand appeared again.
