Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

Feng Lixi agreed not only because she guessed that He Li and the others really had something extremely important to do, but also because of the help from the evil messenger earlier.

After all, he is the Lord of the Underworld!

He is a top-tier power on par with the Heavenly Emperor.

Then look at He Li... In Feng Lixi's eyes, He Li is at most a somewhat special mortal.

Yet, this very person was invited as a distinguished guest by one of the world's top experts, which alone is enough to demonstrate He Li's importance and value.

And what is the matter that He Li wants to ask...?

Judging from this incident, Feng Lixi could guess that its importance was probably far greater than she had imagined.

That's why she didn't hesitate too much.

After all, even if she made a mistake, at most she would only pay a small price or be slightly punished by Nuwa, or perhaps Nuwa wouldn't punish her at all.

But if she refuses to help, and something serious happens as a result, she will not be able to escape responsibility.

However, although I agreed.

But Feng Lixi still said, "Although I can try to help you communicate with the Goddess Nuwa..."

"But will Nuwa be willing to respond to you...?"

"That's not something I can control."

"Furthermore, helping you communicate with the goddess Nuwa is not something I can do casually. You must offer appropriate compensation after this matter is resolved."

"Finally, if communication goes smoothly, you'd better not do anything disrespectful to the goddess Nuwa."

"Otherwise... you'll have to bear the consequences!"

Hearing this, He Li nodded.

"We know what we're doing, and as for your reward... you'll certainly get your share after it's done."

Upon hearing this, Feng Lixi said nothing more. She simply leaped up lightly, like a gentle breeze, and instantly floated to the giant rock on the mountaintop. Then she waved to signal the others around her to step back a little.

After everyone had retreated some distance...

jingle!!!

Suddenly, a clear, tinkling sound rang out.

The sound was like the thud of some small metal object falling to the ground, followed by a mysterious drumbeat that grew louder and louder as it approached from afar.

Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!

Listen to those crisp sounds and drumbeats, listen to them sometimes intertwined and sometimes separate, sometimes intermittent...

He Li subconsciously looked around, only to find that the sound seemed to come from the heavens and earth and could not be traced, while Feng Lixi suddenly radiated a gentle and beautiful glow.

On her body, ribbons and robes that seemed to be woven from spiritual energy appeared...

She began to dance around the boulder.

However, that dance was completely different from the entertainment dances of later generations. Instead, it seemed to be a dance performed during certain religious ceremonies or ancient rituals.

What surprised He Li even more was...

As the music began and he danced with the wind, he discovered that the world had changed because of the wind.

That kind of change cannot be observed with the naked eye.

That was the change of Qi, an invisible force, as if the heavens and earth were dancing around Feng Lixi, and the surrounding spiritual Qi had become incredibly active...

At the same time, He Li noticed that Feng Lixi's dance seemed to have some resemblance to Nuo dance.

"Nuo dance? Could this be...?"

He Li muttered to himself subconsciously.

His voice, however, was captured by the Underworld's Envoy of Good and Evil.

"Nuo dance?" The evil messenger spoke up. He turned to look at He Li and then shook his head, saying, "This is the Heaven Worship Ceremony. It was originally performed by all living beings when they worshipped Heaven and Earth."

"It's just that the way we danced was different back then."

"Later, as things developed, various deities gradually formed their own followers..."

"Thus, the practice of worshipping Heaven began to evolve and change, giving rise to many different types, such as those specifically for worshipping gods or those for worshipping Heaven to inquire about one's fate..."

In short, there are many kinds.

"The dance performed by Feng Lixi is a modified version of the ritual performed by the followers of the goddess Nuwa in the Heaven Worship Ceremony."

"Although these movements look simple, ordinary people wouldn't react even if they learned them and practiced them. It's only when she practices them that she reacts."

Is it a form of worshipping Heaven? A form of worshipping the gods? Is it a form of praying to Heaven for guidance?

Staring at the dancing Feng Lixi, He Li recalled the Celestial Style he had once tried to learn...

It also contains the content of "The Great Nuo Rhapsody"!

Some of the elements in these two pieces are indeed somewhat similar to what Feng Lixi danced, which made He Li realize that perhaps he hadn't been able to master the Celestial Style before...

It's because he hasn't seen it with his own eyes, and he doesn't know the essence of it, even though someone has skipped a similar ritual.

Now that we've seen Furihi jump out...

He had a vague realization.

At the same time, he also realized that perhaps the Nuo dance of later generations was an auxiliary ritual he created based on the worship of heaven when he created Fangxiangshi and suppressed the collective of evil thoughts.

After all, such a ritual can truly draw upon the power of heaven and earth, and it must certainly have some effect.

Thinking about this, He Li observed even more carefully.

No one else said anything more.

Meanwhile, on Furihi's side...

As she danced, the variety of pleasant sounds in the world increased, and everyone felt extremely comfortable with the music and the active spiritual energy around them.

It felt as if my body was relaxed and my soul was soothed, giving me an indescribable feeling of comfort.

Meanwhile, the giant rock on the mountaintop...

It also began to tremble slightly at this moment!

hum! ! !

A moment later, as Feng Lixi stopped moving, her face turning slightly pale, a rainbow of light suddenly shone through the vegetation on the boulder.

The rosy light shifted in the void, eventually forming a huge, half-body phantom that was hundreds of feet tall.

The phantom figure possessed him...

Everyone felt their scalps tingle, as if an irresistible, terrifying pressure descended from the sky, and they felt as if they were being watched by an unknown, terrifying force, their bodies turning ice-cold.

They stood frozen in place, unable to even lift their heads.

Even the messengers of good and evil in the underworld were frozen in place, no longer displaying their previous relaxed and composed demeanor.

Fortunately, this oppressive feeling didn't last long.

In just two or three seconds...

With the oppressive feeling gone and the people regaining their freedom, they were finally able to look up and see the phantom figure clearly...

The illusory figure was actually a being dressed in blue and white robes, with long, jet-black hair flowing like a waterfall, eyes closed, multicolored patterns shimmering on its forehead, and a multicolored giant wheel appearing behind it...

Only the upper body of this being is visible.

And she was a semi-transparent, ethereal figure. She was leaning over, her pale, slender hand supporting her cheek, looking at them with the languid air of a giant gazing at tiny figures on a sand table...

"A soul from a future life? Interesting!"

The sound rang out just as everyone was watching.

The voice was soft and pleasant. Although it was certain that it came from the person in front of them, He Li and the others did not see the other party speak. However, such a being had far too many tricks up its sleeve.

It's not surprising that there are methods of transmitting sound.

After she spoke, He Li quickly reacted, suppressing the various emotions in his heart, and said, "Goddess Nuwa, this junior has come here because of the changes in the world and the rise and fall of civilizations..."

"I have many questions about this!"

"May I ask the goddess Nuwa... to enlighten me?"

He asked somewhat nervously.

"Yes!" The soft, pleasant voice rang out again.

Upon hearing this voice, both He Li and everyone else present breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, judging from Wa's response and what she just said, it's not hard to see that Wa herself knows they are people from the future, and Wa may also care about their affairs.

That's why she agreed to ask He Li the question.

He Li, of course, seized the time and this rare opportunity to ask a question...

"May I ask, Goddess Nuwa, do you know the reason for the decline in spiritual energy and resources in this world?"

"It seems these things wouldn't decrease before."

What could be the reason for this sudden decrease?

"And is it related to flourishing and decay?"

He Li spoke directly, posing the most important question that all powerful figures, both in this era and in later generations, were exploring. Wa shook her head slightly upon hearing this question.

"I don't know!" she replied.

Just as He Li was feeling somewhat disappointed, she added, "But... it is indeed related to the cycle of growth and decay."

"How so?" He Li asked hurriedly.

"Because all the changes in heaven and earth originated from him!"

"Before this, there was no such change in the world."

Nuwa fell silent at this point.

Seeing this, He Li was about to ask Nuwa more questions or directly raise other issues when he suddenly heard Nuwa say something that no one had expected...

"You guys... are a bit strange."

"Especially you!"

"I see my death in you."

"Hmm... I should consult the Heavenly Dao!"

She seemed to be talking to herself, but He Li's eyelids twitched violently as he suddenly realized something...

Could it be that Nuwa has glimpsed the truth of the world...?

Then he died in despair...

It was because he came to ask her that she discovered she would die in the future. Out of curiosity, she went to communicate with the Heavenly Dao and learned that desperate secret.

No way, really?
