Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 541: God's Body

"The body of God?" The uneasiness Lu Mingfei felt was indeed correct.

After the death of the Dragon King, he will leave behind a dragon bone cross that retains his power and authority. After the Archangels are destroyed, they will separate the Archangel Core that represents their power and personality.

The extraordinary creatures in the two worlds were so similar that it made people doubt their origins. Would the Dragon Emperor, who had disappeared in ancient times, and the gods who were suspected to be dead, also leave something behind after their death like them?

Odin once tried to find such a thing. He wanted to occupy the only position in the sky, so inheriting the legacy left by the previous one would undoubtedly make things much easier for him.

But he failed, he found nothing.

God didn't seem to have left anything behind, not even the remains of the Kingdom of Heaven. The prosperous city that once stood in the sky, even the wind angel that was combined with it, didn't know where it fell to, it seemed to have completely collapsed.

But he probably never thought that God did leave something behind...his own body. It was hidden by the King of Ocean and Water, who he had confirmed was dead, until now, when Constance, who was attracted by him, stepped into this swamp.

Lu Mingfei also understood why Constance was so anxious to enter Guixu. She had the same problem. She also urgently needed something to solve her sister Ruo's problem of sleeping and waking up at random.

There is probably nothing more suitable than the Creator to resolve the anomalies that occur in His creations.

So she resolutely stepped into Guixu, and there was no reaction for a month. Until Guixu, which should have stopped, became violent again, and Yunmeng Lake became abnormal.

Lu Mingfei looked at the witches and asked, "How did you know that the body of the god was under the Ruins?"

The King of Ocean and Water chose this place as a cemetery in order to hide the bodies of Gods. He did not even tell the dragon servants who were guarding his tomb, let alone tell these priestesses.

The mirage dragon lowered its head and stared at the leader of the witches. The witches had told him that they came here because of the instructions of the "god". The so-called god asked them to guard this great swamp.

The mirage dragon originally did not trust humans, but strangely, the witches used magical means to possess dragon blood and successfully communicate with him using dragon language.

Since then, the witches have used their power in the secular world to guard the king's tomb. Mirage Dragon gradually let down his guard. The witches had the same goal as him, and they all didn't want the king's tomb to be discovered by outsiders.

To this end, they can even disobey the will of the emperor of this human country.

However, they have never told themselves what their "God" is like and how it communicates with them.
"Please forgive us for hiding this secret." Xing Jian bowed to the Mirage Dragon and apologized sincerely, "The things hidden by the Dragon God are so important that even she herself needs to use her own life to protect this secret."

She looked up at Shenlong and said, "It's not that we don't trust you, but people's hearts will change as time goes by."

Xing Jian continued, "We cannot guarantee that humans with a lifespan of only a hundred years will change their minds after learning about this and try to take out the things in Guixu. We also cannot bet that you, who have lived for thousands of years, will change your mind after knowing what is in there."

She walked to the edge of the island, looked down at the slowly spinning whirlpool, and sighed, "Westerners once discovered a relic from the Age of Gods, and used the appearance of the Age of Gods soldiers as a prototype to create iron golems."

"However, the ruins they found are actually just a part of the civilization of the Age of Gods." Xing Jian turned his head and looked at the silent Lu Mingfei. "Before God died, the largest piece of debris after the sky collapsed, and His body fell to the east."

"The Messianic Church uses scriptures to tell the world that God loves the world, especially Westerners, and spreads civilization from the West to the whole world." At this point, Xingjian paused, "But the truth is, God's body is buried in the East, and we may be the ones He loves."

“…So, the priestesses’ duty is to guard the relics from the Age of Gods?” Lu Mingfei said.

Xingjian looked at him and nodded: "That's right."

"Why do we have to seal off these ruins?" The person who spoke was Chu Shunhua. "If we had that kind of technology, the Papal States wouldn't have used iron golems to show off their power for a hundred years."

Xingjian turned her gaze to him, who had a blank expression on his face. He did not show much respect for her because she was Xingjian. It was more like he was here to accuse her of something.

In fact, Chu Shunhua does have the qualifications and reasons to ask for punishment. With his means, if he had the "God" technology earlier, then the Westerners would have been deeply afraid of the East again.

Xing Jian shook his head and said softly, "Because not every relic is as 'safe' as the sleeping soldiers of the Kingdom of God. The technology of God is not something that modern people can control. The unlocking of that technology may lead to the disappearance of existing civilization."

"Especially, down here." She looked at the waters under the floating island again. "Whether in the East or the West, there is a legend that a flood destroyed the world and then reshaped it. In fact, it is not just a legend."

She looked at Chu Shunhua, her tone extremely heavy: "And the things below will cause even more serious consequences than that. So serious that it will even cause the existing human civilization, whether in the East or the West, to disappear, completely."

The atmosphere became very solemn and everyone was surprised, especially Lucrecia and Chu Yuzhi.

After coming to this world for a month, they already had a certain understanding of this world. Although there were things like mobile armor, the overall civilization seemed to be several hundred years behind their world.

Now, they were told that the humans in this world... or rather, the witches in the East, were actually guarding a weapon that could wipe out all existing civilizations. The most powerful weapon controlled by the people in another world could not guarantee that it could completely destroy civilization.

Xing Jian sighed again and said to Chu Shunhua: "This is why we have to hide it from you. If you knew that we actually have the power to destroy the Papal State in an instant, then you would probably use it without hesitation."

Chu Shunhua remained silent. If he really had such a thing, the Papal State would definitely be the first target... but it would not be the last one.

Hoshimi was right to be wary of him, because he really was as dangerous as most people in the world said.

Lucrecia sighed. "I can't think of anything else that could have caused this kind of outcome, except the Great Judgment. But after all, you don't seem to know what it is, do you?"

Xing Jian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I really don't know. In fact, there is a corpse of God under Guixu. This is something that only each Xing Jian will be told when inheriting. But what exactly God is like, and what kind of existence is that may destroy all existing civilizations, these are all unknown." Only Xing Jian, the leader of the witches, knows everything about God. But there are very few things. Apart from the truth that God died, which made every new Xing Jian stunned for a while, the rest of the shocking thing to their cognition may be that the God believed by the witches is the same God described by the Messiah Holy Church.

But this does not mean that the priestesses are more "orthodox" than the priests of the Messiah Church. In fact, to some extent, they did inherit something from "God".

However, all this happened without the knowledge of "God".

"Let's end the small talk here." Lu Mingfei interrupted everyone's conversation and said, "Something is happening in Guixu. I must go in immediately."

The whirlpool that was originally rotating slowly on the water surface suddenly accelerated, and the waves it raised almost reached the sky, almost submerging the floating island. The sudden change scared everyone. This scene was very similar to what Xingjian had just said, the legend that God destroyed the earth with a flood.

"Please wait a moment, there will be someone who will become Taiyi in the future." Xingjian walked in front of him and motioned the maids behind him to come forward. They were holding a large box in their hands.

Lu Mingfei reached out to take it, opened it and took a look. It was a spear covered in rust and even a little damaged. Its original appearance could no longer be seen.

"What is this?" he asked with some confusion.

Xing Jian shook his head gently: "I don't know. The otherworldly deity who entered Guixu asked me to give it to you. She said that only you can use this thing."

Constance... or Ruoton? Lu Mingfei thought it should be the latter. He looked at the spear carefully. No matter the material or the style, it was just an ordinary spear. With his eyesight, he couldn't see anything unusual.

But since it was found by Ruoton and he asked the witches to hand it over to him, it must be something important.

"I have another question." Lu Mingfei looked at the witches and asked, "What is 'Taiyi'?"

Xingjian paused for a moment and said softly, "A god who will come at some point in the future."

This is the biggest difference between the East and the West. In the West, there is only one God. Perhaps in some ancient countries, there may be plural gods, but after the emergence of the Messianic Church, there can only be one.

But in the East, no matter how the West corrects it, there is only one God, and gods are gods, and their number will not decrease because of anyone's words.

……

Lu Mingfei held the rusty spear and jumped down from the floating island, sinking into the swirling whirlpool. To his surprise, when he said goodbye to the girls, they did not show the same persistence as before.

It was as if he had already understood that only he could solve this incident.

No longer thinking about the things above, Lu Mingfei looked into the water. It was indeed very dangerous under the water. The water that should have been gentle and bright was turbid and turbid, like a crusher, tearing apart everything that fell into the water.

This is the ultimate word spirit belonging to the king of ocean and water. Once you are involved, there is no possibility of escape.

...However, such a current was obviously not enough to threaten Lu Mingfei. The King of Ocean and Water was already dead, and no matter how the witches had communicated with her, they could not change the fact that she was already dead.

Today's Guixu is unable to reach its complete size, and it does not pose that much of a threat to beings of the same level, that is, other Dragon Kings.

So, where is Constance now?
Legend has it that Guixu is the place where water from all over the world gathers. This can be seen from the description that when Yunmeng Lake was first regenerated, water from all over the world gathered here.

The amount of water in Yunmeng Lake is far more than what it looks like on land. Over thousands of years, the flowing water has washed out a huge underground water system here. Lu Mingfei is now in the deepest underwater cave. This cave goes straight down. He has been swimming for an unknown amount of time, but still can't see any sign of the bottom.

It can be seen that the King of Ocean and Water seems to be very afraid that the body of the God will be discovered. This caution does not seem to be directed specifically at Odin, but at all creatures in this world.

This is consistent with Xingjian's description. The things under Guixu must never be unsealed.

Boundless darkness enveloped Lu Mingfei. Guixu was boundless only in legends, and he had now reached the bottom of this underwater cave. However, there was nothing here except flat rocks washed by flowing water.

It seems to be another layer of insurance. The fog covers the Yunmeng Lake, and under the Yunmeng Lake there is an underwater area that no creature, including extraordinary creatures like dragons and Omegas, can reach. There is also an impenetrable rock wall as a barrier.

Lu Mingfei could feel that there seemed to be some kind of alchemy set up here, and the way back had changed. According to the way he had just come down, there was no way to return to the surface of the water.

Such protection seemed to be telling of the determination of the King of Ocean and Water to completely seal the body of God.

There is a dead end under Guixu. All the creatures who are determined to jump into Guixu and end up in such a deadly place must be desperate and die alone here when they find themselves in such a dead end and unable to return, right?
But Lu Mingfei did not intend to stay here alone. He closed his eyes and stretched out his huge spirit to search for clues under the water.

He didn't know much about alchemy, and Izanami, whose spirit he had devoured, was not good at alchemy. After all, for the latter who could simulate taboos with her spirit, her own spirit was her greatest reliance.

Lu Mingfei can now also work miracles like her, but he is worried about the impact his rough cracking will have on this place, so he carefully looks for traces of the previous Dragon King who cracked the alchemy after entering here.

Constance is the queen of metal and fire, and alchemy is almost an instinct for her.

The blue light shone through the red light, guiding Lu Mingfei in the spiritual world. The darkness suddenly disappeared, and Lu Mingfei opened his eyes again, stunned by the city in front of him that seemed to be at the end of the sky.

What surprised him even more was the girl who was standing at the top of the city, in the most conspicuous place, with her eyes closed, seemingly taking a rest. She was so perfect that he was speechless, and so bright that she seemed to be standing in the sky.
