The Growth of a God

Chapter 22: Daughter of Quetzalcoatl

In the real world, Li Hao’s apartment.

When Li Hao ended his dream in another world and woke up again, it was already dawn.

The rising sun in the east and the setting moon in the west exist in the sky at the same time, giving people a feeling of ignorance and laziness.

"Just... a dream?"

Looking at the familiar ceiling above his head, Li Hao's thoughts were still immersed in the wonderful experience of another world.

After taming the big snake, Li Hao did not wake up immediately.

Instead, he continued to travel in that world for a long time as "Ah Xin".

It is no longer a God's perspective in the dark, but a true feeling of every flower, tree, blade of grass and tree in that world.

During this process, Li Hao not only gained a real sense of the existence of that world, but also learned many secrets about the true world from the big snake.

For example, the long steps to the gods...

For example, the legend of Quetzalcoatl...

For example, the truth of the real universe...

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

From the previous description of the dragon head, Li Hao learned that the world was actually divided into two parts.

One is the [Ascension Zone] where the gods are located.

It is the kingdom of gods and the origin of the birth of most life and civilization.

The other is the lifeless [Sinking Zone].

It is the tomb of the gods and the end of the extinction of all things. It is a place that all living beings in the heavens and the world avoid.

To be honest, Li Hao had never had any real sense of this division before, and simply regarded it as something like a "game partition".

However, from the big snake's description, Li Hao learned a shocking fact.

That is, the [Sinking Zone] is actually not far away from him.

Because the real universe where he is now is the "Sinking Zone" that all gods are afraid to enter.

Strict and dense rules limit the power of each god, and the vast and boundless galaxy is enough to accommodate every fallen world.

Every time a star is born and appears in the universe, it means the fall of a kingdom of God in the ascension zone.

Look up at the endless starry sky, each of those shining stars was once a kingdom or world ruled by gods.

[However, not all worlds can be preserved intact. ]

[Compared to the stars that are still shining in the universe, most of the worlds have already fallen apart before being dragged into the sinking zone.]

[And the world that once gave birth to me is one of those worlds that are falling apart. ]

These are the affectionate and sad words of the Great Snake, and are also the ultimate fate of most of the world of the Kingdom of God.

——Gods cannot be eternal, and neither can the kingdom of God.

The world where the big snake lives is called "Kandalst", which can be translated into a name that Li Hao can understand as "Quetzalcoatl Realm".

Unlike the Mountain and Sea Realm, the Quetzalcoatl Realm is a small world created by the Quetzalcoatl God Kukulkan alone.

This is an ancient god who was once active in the heavens and all worlds.

At his peak, he had followers in hundreds of worlds, and was once regarded as the god-king with the greatest potential to become the "fourteenth father-level god."

However, at the peak of his power, Kukulkan was coveted by the war god Huitzilopochtli, the dark god Disctripoca and the demon god Tlaquejupan. After a series of battles among the gods, Kukulkan finally chose to give in.

Since then, the legends about the feathered serpent god Kukulkan were rarely heard in the heavens and all worlds, until the small world he opened up was finally dragged into the [Sinking Zone].

The original big snake was a god born in this small world.

A deifier, as the name suggests, is a mortal who intends to become a god.

Different from demigods who are born with divinity and divine power.

Those who ascend to the gods are genuine mortals, so the first step they have to take is to shed their mortal bodies and ascend to the ranks of demigods.

In different worlds, different civilizations, and different species, the means of shedding the mortal body are also different.

The common practice in the Quetzalcoatl world is to use the original "source power" between heaven and earth to sublimate their souls and eventually become spirits that can exist independently of the physical body.

Sky, earth, ocean, strong wind, sun, moon, thunder and lightning...

All phenomena and things that exist in nature can be considered a kind of "source force", the only difference is the difficulty of using it.

After completing this step, the deifier can be said to have opened the long steps to deification and taken the first step on the long road to becoming a god.

Due to its importance, the creatures of the Quetzalcoatl world call this step "Heaven's Gate".

It means that only by completing this step can the door to heaven be officially opened.

In the entire Quetzalcoatl world, there are not many who can open the "Gate of Heaven" and become gods.

Throughout history, there have been only a handful of people who have been able to successfully complete the long steps to godhood and ascend to the throne of god.

The big snake is both lucky and unlucky.

Fortunately, the Great Snake completed all the steps to become a god and became one of the few gods in the Quetzalcoatl world.

Unfortunately, the Great Snake was the last being to complete the long step to godhood.

Before she even had the chance to obtain her own exclusive title after ascending to the throne of God, the Quetzalcoatl Realm met its ultimate fate of falling into the [Sinking Zone].

At the last moment before his own destruction, the great and benevolent Quetzalcoatl god Kukulkan chose to send the few remaining gods in the Quetzalcoatl world out of it.

Even if there is a high probability that they will become wandering gods, it is better than being buried with the Quetzalcoatl.

Only the big snake, because its power is too weak, has no chance of passing through the world barrier and reaching the other side safely.

In desperation, the feathered serpent god Kukulkan had to protect her last bit of soul, and then fell into the [Sinking Zone] at his fate.

So, when the big snake woke up again and regained consciousness, the feathered serpent god Kukulkan had already died.

The giant snake wanders the earth alone, facing the danger of losing its sanity at any time.

Just like those ancient gods who also wandered the earth, whose minds had long since disappeared but whose obsessions were still lingering.

This is the fate of all gods who fell into the [Sinking Zone].

It is also the inevitable fate of powerful gods like Quetzalcoatl Kukulkan.

If nothing unexpected happens, after losing the protection of Quetzalcoatl Kukulkan, the Great Snake will also become one of those ancient gods who are obsessed with something.

But the reason why an accident is an accident is that it comes so unexpectedly.

Just as his sanity was about to fade, the snake unexpectedly found a mortal who could hear his voice.

She was an ordinary little girl, but she had the bloodline of an ancient god.

Her name is Mengyao!
