Chapter 374 A Beautiful Woman, the Goddess of Life in the Secret Realm
The sun was shining brightly, and the surroundings were full of life, with birds singing and flowers blooming.
In an instant, the world transformed from the dark, putrid, and cold "corpse world" into a bright, warm, and vibrant place.
Jiang Chen and Situ Yu both felt a little uncomfortable; the light was blinding, and the atmosphere suddenly changed from deathly silence.
The Scepter of Creation appeared in Jiang Chen's hand, emitting a shimmering light, seemingly guiding them.
The Scepter of Creation cast a beam of vibrant white light, guiding the way forward.
Jiang Chen gradually adjusted to the light, while Situ Yu found it somewhat blinding. Situ Yu couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Where is this place?"
Jiang Chen looked around; the flowers and plants made it look like a garden.
A small sun in the sky provides energy to the garden.
He scanned it with his detection technique, and the result showed "Creation Secret Realm".
Jiang Chen pondered the connection between the three: the Lightning of Creation, the Scepter of Creation, and the Secret Realm of Creation.
All of this aroused his intense curiosity.
Situ Yu also learned to use the detection technique and learned that this place was called the "Creation Secret Realm".
Jiang Chen wanted to fly forward, but found that flying was prohibited in the air.
Since we can't fly, let's move forward on foot.
Stepping onto the soft grass and breathing in the fresh air, Situ Yu showed a look of enjoyment.
"The air here is so fresh, so much better than in the 'Corpse Realm'." The air in the 'Corpse Realm' is like a garbage dump that's been sitting around for years, smelly and acidic, and of course it can't compare to this place.
Small insects were crawling in the garden, making very faint sounds.
The sound of water could be heard ahead; there was a pond behind the garden.
The pond water was clear, and fish were swimming in it.
Birds were flying overhead.
Here, everything is full of vitality.
Guided by the Scepter of Creation, the two passed through a garden, then through a grove of trees, and finally came to a manor.
The manor is nestled in the forest, surrounded by streams and bridges, like a paradise on earth.
It is different from the secluded paradise of Yixuan.
The Mysterious Realm of Yi is more down-to-earth, with a touch of everyday life.
This place doesn't look like a place where people live.
For some reason, Jiang Chen just had this feeling. The manor was surrounded by flowing water, making it like an independent island connected to the outside world by a small bridge.
"oops!"
Situ Yu suddenly cried out in pain.
Jiang Chen turned his head and saw that a thin, transparent barrier had appeared behind him at some point.
Situ Yu was caught off guard and bumped his head into the transparent barrier.
"Strange, when did this barrier appear?"
Jiang Chen found it strange, as there was clearly no barrier just now.
He took two steps back and passed through the barrier smoothly.
He then moved forward and successfully entered the barrier again.
The barrier had no effect on him whatsoever.
But Situ Yu, she just couldn't get in.
Jiang Chen thought of the Creation Scepter; the difference between the two was the Creation Scepter. When he handed the Creation Scepter to Situ Yu, Situ Yu couldn't accept it no matter what he did.
For Situ Yu, the Scepter of Creation was like an illusion, something he couldn't even touch.
It can be seen but not touched, like a phantom.
After trying a few times, Situ Yu sighed, "If you can't get in, I'll just wait outside."
Jiang Chen did not hesitate and released a legion of undead to protect Situ Yu before going inside himself.
He passed through the barrier smoothly, crossed the small bridge, and arrived at the gate of the manor.
Jiang Chen paused when he saw the manor gate.
A scepter is carved on the gate.
The scepter is exactly the same in shape as the Scepter of Creation, or more accurately, the shaft is exactly the same.
A hexagonal gem had appeared on the Scepter of Creation above the door. Jiang Chen knew that this was the life core that the Scepter of Creation had been missing.
Only by obtaining the life core can the Scepter of Creation become complete.
Jiang Chen gently pushed the door open, and the manor gate opened automatically. He walked in.
After he went inside, the manor gates closed automatically.
The furnishings in the manor were very simple; it was just a small garden, without even a single room.
There are no flowers now, only grass.
In the center of the garden stands a statue, its hands clasped loosely as if holding something.
Jiang Chen looked around the garden several times, but nothing seemed amiss, so he finally came to the statue.
The statue is in the shape of a woman; it is exquisite and lifelike.
The woman in the statue was beautiful. Jiang Chen couldn't discern anything, and even his detection spells didn't register anything.
In this world, detection techniques will always provide some feedback, more or less.
Even just a name.
There aren't many things that even detection techniques don't detect.
This is enough to prove that this statue is unusual.
Jiang Chen examined it for a while, and finally his gaze fell on the statue's clenched fist gesture.
Jiang Chen took out the Creation Scepter and placed it on the surface.
The Creation Scepter, which Situ Yu could not touch, landed safely in the statue's hand.
The Scepter of Creation shone brightly, making the entire statue sparkle.
Jiang Chen took two steps back. Although he didn't feel any threat, he remained vigilant. In the dazzling light, the statue transformed into a woman.
She looks no different from a human woman.
A woman so beautiful and pure that words cannot describe her.
Her beauty was unique, noble, and sacred, as if she didn't exist in this world.
The woman held the Scepter of Creation, her gaze gentle, her voice soft, "Hello, human."
Jiang Chen asked, "May I ask who you are?"
The woman said softly, "I was once the Goddess of Life."
Jiang Chen felt a shiver run through his body, and a chill ran up from the soles of his feet.
He had various speculations about the Scepter of Creation.
The most likely possibility is that it is a mythical weapon.
After all, the monarch's scepter he possessed was a mythical weapon.
I never imagined that this would lead me to an encounter with a deity. Wait…
Jiang Chen heard a different meaning in her words.
She said that once...
A hint of sadness appeared in the beautiful eyes of the Goddess of Life, and at that moment, a deep sorrow welled up uncontrollably in Jiang Chen's heart.
The Domain Stone spun spontaneously, releasing a burst of killing intent that jolted Jiang Chen awake.
Jiang Chen felt a wave of fear. The other party hadn't said or done anything; they had only expressed a little bit of emotion, yet he had been affected.
Are gods really that terrifying?
The God of Life said with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry, I couldn't control my emotions for a moment."
She walked slowly to a place where flowers should have been planted.
With a gentle wave of the Creation Scepter in his hand, countless flowers sprouted from the ground, quickly growing and blooming.
She then went to several other places and did the same thing.
......
Soon, the garden was filled with flowers of all colors.
The air is filled with the fragrance of flowers, and the garden is full of color.
Jiang Chen was numb. Was this some kind of divine intervention?
Could the god of life truly control life?
The woman gracefully returned to Jiang Chen's side. "It's been a long time since I've seen those scenes. This may be the last time I see them."
"Humans, did you know? The outside world isn't called the 'Realm of Corpses'."
Jiang Chen said, "In our human race's records, the 'Realm of Corpses' evolved from a great war and an extremely terrifying skill."
The God of Life sighed, "The one who wielded that skill was also a god. He destroyed my world and turned it into a dead land."
“He killed all three clans, killed me, and killed himself in the process.”
"This skill is powerful, but the price is too high."
Jiang Chen was horrified.
Isn't this supposed to be a war between three races? How come even the gods are involved?
Furthermore, they used a skill that could lead to mutual destruction.
This skill can even kill gods; it is truly terrifying.
Jiang Chen thought for a moment and finally asked the question he had always wanted to know, "Respected God of Life, may I ask what kind of existence gods are?"
The God of Life chuckled, "Little human, the secrets of the gods cannot be revealed. You will learn them in time."
Clearly, she wasn't going to answer Jiang Chen's question. Undeterred, Jiang Chen pressed on, "Who is stronger, the gods or our human race's god-level experts?"
The God of Life chuckled, seemingly finding Jiang Chen's question amusing.
"Human gods, demon kings of the abyss, dragon kings of the dragon race, and our gods are all on the same level."
"As for who is stronger, that depends on who goes further at this level."
This answer is not much different from what Li Xueru once said.
Ultimately, strength or weakness depends on oneself.
Jiang Chen felt somewhat relieved. So, it seemed that the gods weren't as powerful as he had imagined.
"And what about you...?"
Jiang Chen then asked his second question.
