"And why do you think she didn't take any precautions?"
"well?"
Ji Dong was stunned as soon as these words came out. Why do you think she didn't take preventive measures? The forest demon clan was almost wiped out. How could there be any preventive measures?
However, before Ji Dong could say this, Xu Xingyu continued to speak on his own, "Jidong, you have to understand that even things left by gods in the world will lose energy over time."
"You have a relatively good relationship with the Forest Demon Clan. When you were communicating with them, did they ever mention that they had suffered any disasters before? You must know that they hold the source of life, a heaven-defying healing medicine. Why?
Maybe you are getting into trouble just now?"
"This..." As soon as Xu Xingyu said Ji Dong, he began to think about it carefully. It turned out that the elder of the forest demon had indeed said that before being deceived by the Golden Eagle Chamber of Commerce, they had never suffered such a terrifying attack.
The forest demons do not need to rely on hunting for a living. They simply rely on fruits and vegetables, nature's creations, to maintain their survival. Therefore, they are rarely troubled by monsters and the like.
It is strange that it has not been attacked by humans before. It is necessary to know that the news about the source of life was released before the establishment of the Holy Evil Island, that is, about thousands of years ago.
Although the forest they are currently in cannot be called a must-pass route, there are still many magicians who come here to hunt monsters and obtain crystal cores.
Are these forest demons so lucky that their technology of brewing the source of life has never been discovered by others while staying in this forest?
"Could it be that?" Ji Dong has begun to see part of the truth clearly.
When Xu Xingyu saw this, he nodded, "As you might think, the goddess of nature left a part of her consciousness to protect the forest demon clan before she ascended to the divine realm. It is precisely because of that level of consciousness that she has been able to protect the forest demon clan for thousands of years.
Not disturbed by humans.”
"But the energy of divine consciousness is not omnipotent. If it is not replenished by the gods, it will dissipate sooner or later. If it is not used frequently, I estimate that it will be fine for tens of thousands of years, but if it is used continuously for hundreds of years, it will be completely exhausted."
"But the backup left by the goddess of nature has been able to protect the forest demon clan for thousands of years under normal circumstances. This can be regarded as the importance that the goddess of nature places on her followers."
"So that's it." Ji Dong scratched his head and said, "The reason why the goddess of nature's backhand was not activated in this attack is because the forest demon clan that has been protecting it all year round has long been exhausted, and the gods cannot go down to the lower world.
The laws make the goddess of nature can only watch in the God Realm when faced with this situation."
"Alas, aren't the rules of the God Realm a little too strict? Can't you be a little more flexible and let the goddess of nature replenish energy for the consciousness every once in a while?"
Xu Xingyu shook his head and said: "On the contrary, the disaster suffered by the forest demon this time is one of the reasons why the God Realm has laid down such a law."
"What does this mean?" Ji Dong looked at Xu Xingyu in confusion, "Isn't it said that this law is customized mainly because the gods are too powerful and will cause damage to the plane? Is there any other reason?"
"Yes." Xu Xingyu said calmly: "That is, I hope that the lower world will not rely too much on God."
"If a race relies too much on the protection of a god, that race will either develop far beyond the normal speed and affect the surface, or it will become too lazy and lose its enterprising spirit."
"What happened to the forest demon clan is the biggest example. The goddess of nature gave them shelter in order to buy the forest demon clan time to become stronger. However, under the protection of the goddess of nature, the forest demons gained an overly peaceful life. They only think about it every day.
Living their own small lives, few people in the entire race have the determination to become stronger."
"So when the shelter provided by the goddess of nature is exhausted, once they are exposed to people who spy on the source of their life, they will only be hunted. If during the period of shelter, they take the opportunity to become strong enough,
Then there won’t be any war like before.”
"Whether it is this plane or another plane, only the strong have the final say. If you don't want to be bullied by others, or even sit on the same level as others, then you have to make yourself so strong that no one can.
To the point of neglecting you.”
"............"
Ji Dong fell into silence completely. Recalling that when he learned that the goddess he had a crush on was a real god in the inner earth world, he actually felt that he was not worthy of Lie Yan, so he had been practicing hard since then.
Hope that one day he can catch up with the person he loves.
In this war with the Extinction Legion, he was lucky enough to meet Xu Xingyu, the heir to the gods who was hailed by Lie Yan as being able to tie with him. He also knew that once he became a god, he could do anything.
But after listening to Xu Xingyu's explanation, he also realized that the existence of God has great limitations, a bit like a famous movie quote he heard in Blue Star, the greater the power, the greater the responsibility.
Although this sentence is a bit suspected of moral kidnapping from a certain perspective, it also has its own truth. God has many things that need to be taken into consideration, and he is by no means the kind of existence that can do whatever he wants.
On the contrary, if a god does whatever he wants and interferes with the plane whenever he wants, then this will not only hinder the growth of the creatures on the plane, but also bring disaster to the plane.
But to be honest, this has nothing to do with Ji Dong now. There is only one thing he wants to know, "Then I want to know if I become a god, will I be able to protect Lie Yan?"
Xu Xingyu responded silently: "If you want to help the Flame Queen, you have the only way to become a god, and even then it is not 100% possible. Whether you can succeed or not depends on yourself.
Already."
"That's enough." Ji Dong felt relieved after receiving the reply, and once again strengthened his desire to become a god.
After learning that Lie Yan was a god-level powerhouse in the true sense, Ji Dong did not have any distance from Lie Yan in his heart. Instead, he longed for Lie Yan even more and wanted to stand with her and become a lover.
And if he wants to achieve this goal, he must become a god, then he will go on the road to becoming a god! Even if becoming a god comes with heavy responsibilities, he will have no regrets as long as he can be with Lie Yan!!!
At this moment, Xu Xingyu suddenly said: "I have forgotten all that I have said. I have some things I want to ask you to do. After all, I will leave this plane in a few days. Don't worry, I won't let your help go in vain.
."
"Oh, no problem...wait? What do you mean you want to leave this plane?"
