The Growth of a God

Chapter 158: Mentor of the Gods: Long-Eyed God (13)

There is no way to verify what the real name of the Vertical-eyed God is.

Ever since he lost his family and was no longer believed in by living beings, he became a lost god wandering in the heavens and all worlds.

For faith, for survival...

The Long-Eyed God has stolen sacred artifacts, sold civilizations, and is regarded as an evil god by some large pantheons.

But no god denied the power of the Long-Eyed God, just as no one denied His ancient origin.

The only thing that is certain is that this ancient god has begun to spread his totem - the vertical-eyed statue - throughout the heavens and all realms since long ago.

In fact, this is a very common means of collecting faith among the community of lost gods.

For these outsiders, local gods often regard them as evil gods and demons, and strictly forbid the creatures under their jurisdiction to believe in those unknown beings.

From the perspective of local gods, there is actually nothing wrong with this approach.

After all, those lost gods will do anything to gain faith, and there is no essential difference between them and real demons.

Recycling?

Sustainable development?
Help indigenous civilization progress?

That is not within the consideration of the Lost Gods. All they have to do is to gain the most faith in the shortest time.

In addition, the fact that they have become lost gods means that these gods themselves are unqualified and have no idea how to maintain faith for a long time.

The combination of these two naturally led to the lost gods becoming the most unwelcome existence among the gods in the heavens and worlds, second only to the evil gods.

However, in this regard, the Vertical-Eyed God is an exception.

He was born in eternity, has rich experience in cultivating races and civilizations, and knows how to gain faith correctly.

It is rare for the Long-Eyed God to lead a civilization or a race completely astray for the sake of short-term interests, as happened to other lost gods.

If the Long-Eyed God had not always refused to join the pantheon, he would definitely not be just a wandering lost god.

As for the reason why Zongmu God refused to join the pantheon?

Rumor has it that it was because he came from a prosperous and glorious pantheon, and after the collapse of that pantheon, he no longer wanted to join any other pantheon.

There are also rumors that it is because the Longitudinal Eyed God has lived for too long and has already been on the verge of death, and may fall into the [Sinking Zone] at any time.

Under such circumstances, no pantheon would dare to take in this ancient god who was in danger of falling.

Of course, if that were all, Zongmu Shen wouldn’t actually be that famous.

There are dozens of similar ancient gods in the universe, if not a hundred, and the Vertical-Eyed God is not particularly prominent among them.

What really made the Long-Eyed God famous was his unique technology in making totems.

Generally speaking, gods often create things like statues and totems to accept and transfer the faith from all living beings.

But the problem is that creating a totem statue itself requires a lot of divine power and faith.

Even the main god of a large pantheon would not be so extravagant as to mass-produce his own totem statues.

However, on the body of the Long-Eyed God who had already lost his faith, a large number of totems appeared and spread throughout the heavens and all realms.

The most important thing is that these totems from the Vertical-Eyed God are different from ordinary totems.

Not only can they act independently from gods, but they also rarely create large-scale civilization disasters simply to gather faith.

In the world of some newborn gods, the totem of the Long-Eyed God even plays the role of "guide" to a certain extent, teaching them how to cultivate correct beliefs.

"Teacher of the gods?"

He opened his mouth in surprise.

Li Hao never expected that there was such a complicated reason behind this bronze mask. Especially the existence of the vertical-eyed god, it completely refreshed his understanding of the gods.

"No wonder I couldn't find any information about Him in any of the major sections of the 'Civilization Game'."

"The existence of the Vertical Eyed God is probably a secret even among the gods, right?"

Hearing Li Hao's sigh, the Faceless Man maintained his usual smile and nodded in response.

"Yes, the Long-Eyed God can indeed be called the 'Teacher of the Gods'."

"Many gods received his guidance and grace in the early stages."

After a brief pause, the Faceless Man continued.

"So, you don't have to worry about the Vertical Eyed Divine Totem causing you any unnecessary trouble."

"As far as I know, the Long-Eyed God will not even recycle the power of faith in the totem."

After hearing this, Li Hao immediately understood.

Because he discovered that the purpose of the Long-Eyed God releasing the totem was actually similar to his own.

Both are aimed at exploring the world beyond their own cognition and exploring the infinite possibilities of the universe.

In comparison, a mere bit of faith and divine power is not worth taking seriously.

"You just said that the Long-Eyed God is a contradictory guy. Did He do anything else out of the ordinary?"

It is certainly unusual to release totems into the territory of other gods.

But from Li Hao's point of view, he absolutely cannot bear the Faceless Man's evaluation of being "contradictory".

"You are right. For ordinary gods, the God of Vertical Eyes is indeed a qualified mentor."

“However, for those ancient gods that have existed since time immemorial, the behavior of the Long-Eyed God is more like a temptation.”

“Although we don’t know what the Longitudinal Eye God is trying to test, a considerable number of main gods and even the Supreme God have expressed obvious disgust and rejection of this behavior.”

"Especially considering that the God of Vertical Eyes has a history of causing the 'Catastrophe of the Gods', no god dares to be careless."

When the Faceless Man said this, he sighed with deep emotion.

"This world is simply too vast. Even the Supreme God has times when he is unable to cope with it."

After hearing the Faceless Man's sigh, although Li Hao didn't hold much hope, he still couldn't help but ask a question.

"If I want to find this Long-Eyed God, do you have any ideas?"

The emotion on his face instantly turned into an unfathomable smile.

The Faceless Man did not answer Li Hao's question immediately, but asked back with great expectation.

"Are you really looking for the God of Vertical Eyes?"

Nodding decisively, Li Hao made no secret of his interest and intention.

"If you really want to do this, I can ask my Lord to use a certain artifact to help you locate the source of this totem."

"However, you must reach a contract with my Lord under the witness of the 'Scales of Truth'."

As if afraid that Li Hao would misunderstand his intentions, the Faceless Man immediately added another sentence after saying this.

"Don't worry, my Lord has no intention of snatching the spoils from you."

"My Lord just wants to know the secrets and truths that have long been buried in the long river of history."
