The Growth of a God

Chapter 10: Mythic Civilization (1/3)


Mountain and Sea Realm, the Divine Concealment Land of the Central Plains.

"Oh, look who it is, isn't this Duo Mu?"

"Haha! Looks like you have your day too!"

"Quick, quick, call everyone over and see what our Duo Mu has turned into now!"

...

When Celestial Monarch Yan brought the one-eyed Duo Mu here, he was immediately noticed by the Immortals present.

The gloating Immortals didn't even care about Celestial Monarch Yan's presence; instead, they crowded around to mock the single eye left on Duo Mu.

[Shut up! I'm back this time for serious business!]

Trying to widen his eye as much as possible, Duo Mu now regretted following Celestial Monarch Yan here.

Although even if Duo Mu hadn't wanted to come, Celestial Monarch Yan definitely wouldn't have let him go.

But seeing those companions laughing at him, the originally proud Duo Mu just wanted to find a crack to crawl into.

"Haha! Listen to that, so rare!"

"Our Duo Mu actually has serious business?"

"Serious business? Isn't his serious business just courting death?"

...

Ignoring Duo Mu's "protests" entirely, the number of spectators among the Immortals continued to grow visibly.

This left Celestial Monarch Yan somewhat speechless.

Because she never expected that Duo Mu would be so "famous" among the Immortals.

Clearly, even among a bunch of odd Immortals, Duo Mu was a particularly unconventional type.

Fortunately, although they were watching, the Immortals did not delay Celestial Monarch Yan's serious business.

It didn't take long for Celestial Monarch Yan to reach the vicinity of the Creator Altar in the Divine Concealment Land.

Due to the relationship with Yao Xin, the Celestial Monarchs of the Netherworld were not considered "outsiders" to the Immortals.

Therefore, with just a simple explanation of her purpose, the Immortal responsible for guarding the Creator Altar opted to let them through.

[So, are you really sure that the Reincarnator escaped to other worlds?]

It was rare for the usually carefree Duo Mu to show such uneasy expression, causing Celestial Monarch Yan to lower her head.

"Are you that afraid of returning to the Brilliant Realm?"

Her words carrying a hint of curiosity, this was the first time Celestial Monarch Yan saw such an expression on Duo Mu.

[Not really afraid, it's just that Balian is so nagging.]

Complaining with some helplessness, Duo Mu had been nagged by Balian for thousands of years to the point of forming a psychological shadow.

"There's no other way, the Brilliant Realm is the only gateway from the Mountain and Sea Realm to the outside world."

"To continue tracking that Reincarnator, we must pass through the Brilliant Realm."

Hearing Celestial Monarch Yan say this, Duo Mu couldn't help but sigh again.

[So even Celestial Monarch Erosion didn't count you as derelict, truly he was lenient!]

.........................................................

An hour later, in the Brilliant Realm.

The current Brilliant Realm was no longer the desolate scene it once was.

Aside from endless stars and brilliance, peculiar and magnificent buildings rose from the ground.

In line with the Immortals' style, there were still no cities or districts here, only isolated groups of buildings.

These constructions had no uniform style, and their locations and forms could be described as unique.

If the Brilliant Realm had anything resembling a uniform style, it would be those towering and radiant Sun Towers.

Those Sun Towers were made entirely of Sun Stone.

Like miniature suns, they radiated in all directions, providing ample energy for the Immortals.

Unlike the Mountain and Sea Civilization that promoted individual progress collectively.

The civilization displayed by the Immortals was another kind of nearly "mythological" stance.

Supported by the Sun Towers, the Immortals living in the Brilliant Realm had no need to worry about consumption.

Freely bestowing spirituality, freely summoning elves...

Here, whether sunshine or breeze, or even the ground beneath, everything was "alive".

The sunshine would occasionally turn into embodied spirits, curiously observing Celestial Monarch Yan, the foreigner.

The breeze would occasionally swirl, surrounding Celestial Monarch Yan.

What shocked Celestial Monarch Yan the most was that the towers and buildings she saw would quietly open their eyes when she passed by, seemingly observing this foreigner's appearance.

"What a wondrous world!"

As the incarnation of the Long-Eyed God, an Old God existing between life and death — Celestial Monarch Yan considered herself well-versed in many things.

However, a world as "alive" as the Brilliant Realm, she was seeing for the first time.

Yes, from Celestial Monarch Yan's perspective, in the Brilliant Realm, not only the natural phenomena and man-made things were alive.

The Brilliant Realm itself was a living "Ghost God", an existence infinitely close to the Gods.

Without exaggeration, the Immortals had essentially created a small version of a Creator in the Brilliant Realm — a "puppet creator" that only executed the Immortals' commands.

"After all, this is the 'frontier station' from the Mountain and Sea Realm to the outside; it's always better to be more prepared."

At this moment, Balian, who had somehow quietly appeared behind Celestial Monarch Yan, explained with a smile.

However, while saying this, Balian intentionally or unintentionally set his gaze on the eye — Duo Mu — held by Celestial Monarch Yan.

"That is the greatness and mercy of the Creator!"

"Otherwise, your actions would have long been subject to divine punishment!"

Having once been one of the Mentors of the Gods, Celestial Monarch Yan was naturally aware of the divine limits.

Of course, the understanding of the Gods by the Netherworld Celestial Monarchs had been broken by Li Hao more than once.

So although she said it with her mouth, Celestial Monarch Yan's demeanor was quite calm.

To define someone like Li Hao, an unconventional Creator, by ordinary divine standards was itself a form of blasphemy against him.

"Primordial Prophet, I came here to find someone who went to the Marz World...a fugitive."

Slowly turning around, Celestial Monarch Yan pondered for a moment before deciding to refer to the Reincarnator as a "fugitive".

"A fugitive?"

Withdrawing his focus from Duo Mu, Balian unusually furrowed his brow.

A fugitive who could be pursued by a Netherworld Celestial Monarch personally was a troublesome existence from every angle.

"What are its characteristics? Where has it gone now?"

In response to Balian's question, Celestial Monarch Yan calmly answered.

"Its previous form was a Nine-tailed Fox; it's currently unclear what species it transformed into."

"The only certainty is that it was born with a powerful soul and high intelligence, and has now passed through the Brilliant Realm to the World of Fallen Gods."

"I would trouble the Prophet to tally individuals who have left the Mountain and Sea Realm and haven't returned; I will inspect them one by one."
