Chapter 771: The Star of Destiny is the Key
The memory crystal disappeared, and Zhongli looked at Gu Sanqiu quietly.
"Now, have you got the answer you wanted?"
"Becoming a god actually has such a development. I really didn't expect it."
Gu Sanqiu grinned: "However, Mond's Vanessa left behind the wind-blown tree, so what did the Gushen Patriarch leave behind?"
"If we are talking about real objects, apart from the magic weapons passed down in your family, only this set of holy relics still exists in the world."
Zhongli shook his head: "The golden light you saw in your last memory was just the little god throwing his weapon back. It was an obvious threat, and its biggest effect was to make other enemies dare not make any moves."
Gu Sanqiu didn't believe it: "He's gone, but he still has this kind of deterrent power?"
Zhongli smiled and said, “During the Demon God War, other people thought the same thing, but they didn’t expect that the little god could come back in that way.”
"Times are constantly changing, and the war between demons and gods is still unpredictable. No one knows what will happen next, but the only thing that remains unchanged is that under the demon god, I will still beat others to death by pressing their heads."
"As a person with a criminal record, it is only natural for other forces to be on guard. If they take this opportunity to test Liyue, they would be crazy."
Seems to make some sense?
No matter what decision Gu Shen made back then, few people knew the inside story.
In the eyes of an insider like Zhongli, extending one's life is simply selling one's life for money. A thousand years of protection and companionship is what Gu Shen bought with his future and life.
But others don't think so.
To put it simply, perhaps the enemies are much more confident than Gu Shen himself about the possibility that this madman will explode again.
Who knows if the "plot" of Gu Shen's roar this time is another pig-killing scheme, specifically waiting for other guys with ill intentions to rush into Liyue, and before they can take any action, Liyue will block the world and kill them directly.
Morax, the immovable black stone, is powerful yet kind , killing yet protecting life.
But in the eyes of hostile demons, he is simply a super scheming king. Excluding some demons who are born eccentrics, Morax may be ranked first in the list of "Demons with the most ideas".
It's not that he is incapable of doing something like killing pigs.
Thus, this simple, even extremely crude empty city plan was successful.
Zhongli thought about it carefully and said, "Vanessa left behind the big tree where the wind rises. According to legend, the tree seems to be able to communicate with the sky. As to whether it is Vanessa or something else, I am not sure."
"Perhaps you can ask that drunkard poet about this question. He should know something about it. After all, it is something in his territory."
Zhongli said: "I remember now, the little god did not leave nothing behind. He said at the time that he wanted to open a way out for all living beings in the world."
Gu Sanqiu was stunned for a moment: "Didn't the ancestor succeed? In the end, he did meet the Heavenly Justice Maintainer."
"No, that person is just a 'result'. The so-called road is the 'process' before I met that person. That is the road he created ."
Zhongli frowned slightly: "But that road seems to require real humans to sense it. The problem is where the road is and how to get there. The little god didn't leave any information."
Gu Sanqiu had a headache: "Will it also be classified as 'need to be forgotten'? In this case, what's the difference between keeping it and not keeping it?"
Zhongli tapped the stone table lightly with his index finger. "I asked the little god about this matter at that time, but his answer to me was that the road is there, and you can walk if you can. If you can't walk, you will never be able to do it in your whole life."
"From a universal perspective, now that I think about it, it seems to have something to do with strength and character."
"During the Demon God War, in addition to Xiao, Xiaoshen and the others, the Qianyan Group also maintained a high level of combat effectiveness, which is why they were able to shout out the slogan of pacifying demons and eliminating evil."
"But now, most people have lost this potential, and those who are powerful are basically bound to..."
Zhongli said slowly: "If my judgment is correct, this should involve something deep-seated. The problem and the solution are not in the human body, but in the spirit and soul."
"Teyvat has its own unique laws. I have kept them secret from you. This is likely related to Teyvat's original laws and other existences, or even in conflict with them."
"If he told me, would there be any bad changes? That's why he used such an awkward statement to fool me."
Things that happened before the sun and the moon!
Considering the relationship between Gu Shen and his father, there is only one possibility for him not to say such things, that is, the information obtained by Gu Shen was too terrifying, and he did not want to harm the people around him.
The Son of Man paves the way for all beings, and his dreams and spirit carry him forward. The probability of seeing something is huge!
No, I can’t go on. With my dad’s intelligence, it’s not difficult for him to figure out this problem!
Gu Sanqiu's heart trembled, and he immediately rushed over and pressed Zhongli's shoulder.
"Okay, dad, you must be thirsty after talking so much. Come on, let me pour you a cup of tea to moisten your throat. Let's change the subject."
"……Can."
Zhongli took a sip of tea and said, "When you appeared that year, we were all very surprised, even delighted. We thought that the little god had successfully reincarnated through some method."
"But in the end, I discovered that you don't have the ability of a little god. Even though your temperament is exactly the same, you and he are completely different beings after all."
Gu Sanqiu was not convinced: "Dad, you said that times have changed. It's normal that I can't compare to him in terms of fighting."
"Forget it. There's no benefit in dwelling on this."
Gu Sanqiu pondered for a moment and said, "Dad, do you know what you need to do after becoming a god? Besides the seven rulers of the mortal world, is there any other place that needs gods to do things?"
It can't be some kind of weird human medicine plot.
Vanessa's free spirit and lion's pride.
Gu Shen's unparalleled fighting spirit and murderous intention.
Judging purely from this aspect, it does seem to have some kind of high-purity nutritional value?
"When you reach perfection and take steps towards the forbidden stage, you will know this. You are still too weak now."
Zhongli tapped Gu Sanqiu's head gently.
"It's already come to this point, and you still haven't succeeded in outlining your constellation. You're too greedy. Don't be like that crazy girl Xiaosheng."
"Back then, she regarded the First Constellation as the most important foundation and wanted to design a door on the Constellation, a 'Gate of Truth' that could contain knowledge."
Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched: "Isn't that the work of the World Tree and the Earth Vein?"
"She was as greedy as you, but she had to find another way in the end."
"The destiny star is the core foundation, and the destiny constellation is just the icing on the cake."
Zhongli shook his head: "The so-called fate is just an opportunity for you to gradually comprehend the law. It is a key to open the door, but it does not represent your final strength."
"You fought with my phantom in the sea, and you used the power of the Fate Star to control the rock elemental force to counterattack the opponent. This is a very obvious proof."
"If it was the real me attacking you, you would never be able to control the rock element. Even your wind and fire would be restricted by me."
