The old man guarding the temple had a look of astonishment on his face, and then he said with a vigilant expression, "Boy, there is no one you are looking for here. Don't make trouble here, otherwise the guards of Crescent Island will not be vegetarians!"
The old man had a sullen face. He thought Zheng Dong was someone who came to the Temple of Truth to cause trouble.
No wonder the old man was vigilant. During his career guarding the Temple of Truth, there were indeed some monks who would choose to cause trouble after receiving blessings from the temple.
The reason for the commotion is that the blessing spell of the Temple of Truth does not work.
Ryan swore that as the guardian of the temple, he knew very well whether the temple's blessing magic was useful.
Among the vast group of young monks who came to explore the Sea of Storms, the blessing technique was known as a miraculous effect.
Those who made trouble were nothing more than villains who wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail a sum of money.
Zheng Dong looked at the wary old man, shook his head, and walked forward.
Suddenly.
The entire Crescent Island fell into a state where time stood still, and everyone's consciousness fell into chaos.
Only in front of this dilapidated Temple of Truth, the flow of time is still normal, and it is a completely different world from the outside world.
...
The backyard of the Temple of Truth.
Two figures were sitting and standing.
The one sitting there is wearing a white divine robe, with golden patterns engraved on the white divine robe.
However, it can be seen from her pointed ears that she is not a human, but an elf.
Standing in front of her was a little girl about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a nun's uniform.
Judging from her impatient expression, the little girl seemed unwilling to become a nun in the Temple of Truth.
"Your Majesty Elise,"
The little girl raised her head and looked at the woman in front of her. She mustered up her courage and said, "How about we close this Temple of Truth? You have said so yourself. Then the God of Truth has not responded to you for almost a thousand years."
You are an elf, but elves also have a life limit, don’t you want to take a good look at the world in your last days?”
When Elise heard this, she fell silent.
After a long time, she turned her head, looked at the coastline in the distance, and said softly: "No, Leah, you don't understand."
"What don't I understand? Your Majesty Elise, the Temple of Truth should have disappeared long ago. Now this place is called Canglan Realm, and the Knight Continent was also named thousands of years ago!
Besides, the Extraordinary Association is so powerful, even if there really is a God of Truth, he wouldn’t dare to come here to preach!”
Obviously, the Extraordinary Association's status in the Canglan world has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people over the past thousand years.
Even the little girl from the Temple of Truth had an expression of reverence when she talked about the Extraordinary Association.
When Elise heard the words "Supernatural Association", the expression on her face was very complicated.
The last order she received from the gods was to cooperate with the Extraordinary Association and capture the Knight Continent.
After that, the gods never responded to her again.
She abandoned the central temple of Andaya and came to Crescent Island, where she built a new temple.
At first, there were some temple knights who followed her and stationed in this temple.
But as time goes by, the Extraordinary Association develops this world more and more deeply, and the footprints of monks are everywhere in the Canglan world.
Some of these monks are from the ancient continent, some are from other star worlds, and some are local monks from the Canglan Realm.
In a thousand years, the paths of extraordinary knights and blood knights that were originally popular in the Knight Continent have all disappeared. As for the path of spellcasters, there is no trace at all.
In the current world of Canglan, there is only one way of cultivation, the Immortal Way.
It can be said that someone like Elise who has lived for thousands of years and practiced the path of temple sacrifice is unique.
The knights who followed her to the Crescent Island Temple back then have all died of old age.
Of all the believers, she is the only one left.
Although during this long period of time, she wanted to regain the glory of the God of truth and preach to the world.
But unfortunately, the power of the Extraordinary Association is too huge. Every time she wants to preach, she is blocked by invisible forces.
After trying countless times, Elise's heart became cold.
Silently staying alone in the Temple of Truth, quietly waiting for himself to grow old and die.
I just don’t know if I will see you again after death, my lord!
Elise thought silently.
When the little girl saw that the saintly lady who had adopted her since childhood was silent, she tried to speak but stopped talking.
Finally, it all turned into a sigh.
"Your Majesty Elise, I will take my leave now."
She was most afraid of seeing the saint's expression. Every time she showed this expression, she would quietly look at the seaside without speaking.
Elise's favorite direction to look is the south of Crescent Island.
It was once the home of the Temple of Truth.
There used to be a small city built by believers and a large plantation of elixirs there, but after a thousand years, everything disappeared.
What's left is only a scaled claw that exists in her memory.
Until I walked to the door, I bumped into a young man wearing a white robe with a "Ouch" sound.
"Who are you?"
When Leah saw a stranger coming here, she immediately became vigilant.
This is the backyard of the Temple of Truth and is not open to the public.
When Elise consecrates people with blessings, it is also in the front hall, not here.
Zheng Dong didn't answer, but passed her and walked towards Elise.
The moment he passed Leah, the time behind him stopped again.
Leah remained alert and motionless, her consciousness falling into chaos.
"Ta!" "Ta!" "Ta!"
Zheng Dong approached step by step.
The steps became heavier.
He knew that the woman in front of him was Elise, the bishop he had appointed in the Knight Continent.
At that time, the Knight Continent merged into the primitive world.
Zheng Dong only took Allen away. As for the other people in the Temple of Truth, Zheng Dong did not pay much attention to them, including Elise.
Zheng Dong did not know that although he had given up on the people in the Temple of Truth, none of the temple knights in the Temple of Truth had abandoned him.
They held on to their beliefs until the moment of death.
And Elise is the last believer.
Elise belongs to the elves, and is a royal family among the elves, a moon elf. Her lifespan is much longer than that of ordinary people, more than a thousand years.
But now, she is coming to the end of her life.
Zheng Dong looked at her back. The green hair that used to be all turned into silvery white.
I don't know if she felt something in her heart, but Elise's delicate body sitting on the stone bench trembled slightly.
She turned around slowly, and when she saw Zheng Dong, tears were streaming down her face.
Thousands of years of perseverance, thousands of years of waiting, and countless words finally turned into just one sentence.
"You are finally here!"
Zheng Dong looked at the pale Elise, and Gujing Wubo's heart couldn't help but tremble.
"Sorry, Elise."
"There is no need to apologize to me. It is my choice to believe in you!"
Elise raised her head, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on her face, adding a touch of rosy color to her pale face.
