Chapter 239 The Previous Generation's Number One

"What are you going to the Holy Mountain for?" Mo Baichan asked.

Gu Guanqi looked up at the sky and said, "Just now, when I was killing Duanmu Xian, I heard her say that this world is fake, just a book."

Everything we see, hear, and experience has been written down by others; even our thoughts and ideas are written down by others. And the one who holds the pen is the deity, the Eternal Heaven worshipped by you Xianbei. Therefore, I want to see the lineage of the deity.

Mo Baichan was slightly taken aback and said, "How is that possible? If that's the case, then everything is fake."

Gu Guanqi nodded slightly and said, "So, I'm also a little confused right now."

Mo Baichan tilted her head slightly to look at Gu Guanqi. Seeing Gu Guanqi's blank expression, she didn't know why, but her heart tightened inexplicably.

She had only known Gu Guanqi for a short time, a full day and night, and she didn't know what kind of personality Gu Guanqi had.

However, she just felt that Gu Guanqi shouldn't be like this.

"He was born confident; he should be radiant and carefree. He shouldn't be so lost!"

Mo Baichan moved forward a little and said, "Brother Gu, I have never practiced martial arts, and I do not have your level of skill."

I can't understand how you feel right now.

But when I was little, my mother told me that if someone was unhappy and I wanted to comfort them but didn't know how, I could give them a hug. "If you're unhappy right now, you can hug me!"

Gu Guanqi looked at Mo Baichan, smiled slightly, and said, "It's nothing. I just have some doubts in my mind that I want to resolve. If one day I really find out that this world is fake, then I will find a way to make it real."

Mo Baichan stared at Gu Guanqi, a smile spreading across her face, and said, "Brother Gu, you were born to be this confident. You should shine as brightly as the sun!"

Gu Guanqi smiled and said, "You still haven't said whether I can go to the Holy Mountain?"

"Of course you can," Mo Baichan said. "The Holy Mountain is just an ordinary place, just a mountain. Anyone can go there. You can observe the divine bloodline if you want, but can you promise me you won't harm the person who awakens the divine bloodline?"

Gu Guanqi nodded slightly and said, "I won't hurt anyone without a reason."

"Alright," Mo Baichan said, "However, we need to take care of things here in Hu City. I'll take you to the Holy Mountain later, and I can also have the new Holy Maiden ask the Eternal Heaven about your doubts."

"Hmm." Gu Guanqi asked, "By the way, Miss Mo Bai, could you describe in detail what the Eternal Heaven you saw was specifically like?"

Mo Baichan said, "Just like I said yesterday, it's very blurry. When I thought He was a person, I saw..."

When I felt that He was a mountain, what I saw was a mountain.

He was both gentle and majestic. I cannot describe it, but the moment I saw Him, I knew He was God, just as the moment I saw you, I knew you must be the most handsome man in the world.

Gu Guanqi asked, "When you met Him, did you gain any amazing knowledge?"

"Knowledge?" Mo Baichan was slightly taken aback and asked, "What kind of knowledge?"

Gu Guanqi said, "It's about cognition. After seeing Him, did you suddenly understand something you didn't understand before?"

"Oh, yes!" Mo Baichan said, "However, it's not like what you just said, seeing everything in the human world as a book. At that time, I suddenly had the Xianbei territory deeply engraved in my mind."

Gu Guanqi quickly asked, "What exactly do you mean?"

Mo Baichan explained, "I've lived on the sacred mountain since I was a child and have rarely come down from it. Even when I did come down, it was always to the vicinity of the sacred mountain. I don't know how big the Xianbei are or what places they have."

But ever since I saw the Eternal Heaven, I suddenly had a concept of the entire Xianbei, as if someone had stuffed the entire map of the Xianbei into my brain.

Moreover, it's the kind of thing where, if I want to know about a place, I can instantly visualize the mountains and rivers of that place, even pinpointing the exact location of every village.

Gu Guanqi raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "God's perspective!"

Mo Baichan asked in confusion, "What is a God's-eye view?"

Gu Guanqi said, "It's as if you've become infinitely large, overlooking all the mountains and rivers. A distance of tens of millions of miles is nothing more than a small space in your eyes."

"Yes, that's it." Mo Baichan said, "It's the God's-eye view you mentioned. So, although I've never been to any of the Xianbei places, I know the directions and structures of each place like the back of my hand."

Therefore, in all these years, in my efforts to produce trees and grains that can be cultivated on a large scale by the Xianbei, I have always been able to pinpoint the locations I need to investigate, because I am so familiar with the Xianbei, as if I have walked through this land a thousand times over.

Gu Guanqi was somewhat moved. This was simply a natural-born warrior, capable of knowing the structure of a region like the back of his hand. On a large-scale battlefield, he was practically a god.

Gu Guanqi then asked, "Was it only the Xianbei? Were there any other states?"

"No," Mo Baichan said, "all I can think of are maps of the Xianbei."

Gu Guanqi frowned slightly, his doubts growing stronger.

"Then, is there any other knowledge?"

Mo Baichan shook her head and said, "No, I haven't seen the Eternal Heaven since then. However, during sacrifices, I can get a response from the Eternal Heaven. For example, in years of severe drought, when I pray to the Eternal Heaven for rain, He will tell me what offerings and locations are needed to pray for rain."

"Always ready to grant your request?" Gu Guanqi asked.

"I suppose so," Mo Baichan said. "However, I only asked about important matters concerning the Xianbei, such as praying for rain and curing the plague. I didn't ask about personal matters, so I don't know if the Eternal Heaven would respond if I asked about personal matters."

Gu Guanqi said, "Can we give it a try?"

"This—" Mo Baichan said, "I no longer have divine bloodline and can no longer contact the Eternal Heaven. As for the next Holy Maiden, I'm not sure if she'll be willing to help, but I can talk to her about it when the time comes."

"Okay." Gu Guanqi nodded. "Thank you!"

"You're welcome," Mo Baichan said, "I'd really like to be able to help Brother Gu too!"

Gu Guanqi smiled and said, "Then I'll take you to meet the other tribal leaders now so we can elect a new Xianbei king. It just so happens that all the tribal leaders are gathered in Hu City right now, which will make things easier."

"it is good."

Immediately, Gu Guanqi grabbed Mo Baichan by the shoulder and flew away into the distance.

Today, Hu City is a gathering place for the leaders of all the Xianbei tribes. This is because Tan Shixuan had previously summoned the various tribes under the name of Tianfeng, the Black Bird under the throne of Changshengtian, with the intention of unifying them by force and then marching south to attack the Qian Kingdom.

The conference was scheduled to be held in the next few days, but Gu Guanqi's intervention has shattered his plans.

At that time, outside Hu City, people from various tribes witnessed Gu Guanqi single-handedly slaughtering 20,000 cavalrymen of Tan Shixuan.

Immediately, many people from the tribes wanted to flee.

However, their speed was naturally no match for Gu Guanqi's.

Gu Guanqi, accompanied by Mo Baichan, visited each tribal chieftain's home. The chieftains were terrified, fearing that Gu Guanqi was there to kill them.

However, with Mo Baichan there, the matter was quickly quelled.

After all, although Mo Baichan has lost her divine bloodline, she is still recognized as a saint by everyone in Xianbei.

Afterwards, Mo Baichan summoned the leaders of various tribes outside Hu City to begin organizing a new Xianbei king election conference.

However, electing a new king will naturally not be a simple matter.

After several days of investigation, Gu Guanqi finally selected a tribal leader after learning about the information of the various tribes. The leader of the tribe to which Qiu Muxi belonged was the new Xianbei king.

There were two reasons for choosing that tribe. First, Gu Guanqi had contact with that tribe, and that tribe held a friendly attitude towards the Central Plains. Second, that tribe was relatively weak overall.

A weak overall strength means that the other side will only obtain the empty title of Xianbei King, without the strength to command the various tribes. The tribes will not take the new Xianbei King seriously, each with their own agenda, making it difficult to unify.

In this situation, the forces of the various Xianbei tribes would be difficult to integrate, remaining highly fragmented and posing little threat to the Central Plains. Unless, one day, a powerful leader emerges from one of the Xianbei tribes, but that leader lacks righteousness and can only unify the Xianbei through war, this would plunge the Xianbei into internal strife and further weaken their power.

If the other side truly achieves unification, Gu Guanqi wouldn't mind killing another Xianbei king.

After the new Xianbei king was appointed, Gu Guanqi took Mo Baichan to the sacred mountain.

The sacred mountain, just as Mo Baichan said, is a rather ordinary-looking mountain. In the Central Plains, it wouldn't even be considered a high mountain, but it is still quite large and stretches a great distance.

This sacred mountain was the first mountain Gu Guanqi had ever seen since arriving in Xianbei, covered entirely with trees. Although other mountains also had trees, they were not lush and few in number.

But this sacred mountain is different; it is covered with trees and looks almost the same as the mountains in the Central Plains.

On this day, in the dense forest.

Mo Baichan led Gu Guanqi through the crowd; she was in a good mood, clearly experiencing the joy of returning home.

"Brother Gu," Mo Baichan turned her head to look at Gu Guanqi and said, "The Sacred Mountain is the most beautiful mountain among our Xianbei people. However, I've heard people say before that mountains like this are very common in your Central Plains. Is that true?"

Gu Guanqi shook his head slightly and said, "It's not exactly common, after all, your Sacred Mountain is quite large. But there are indeed many mountains of this size in the Qian Kingdom, however, the environment is different. The Sacred Mountain is in a plain region like the Xianbei, where it stands proudly above all other mountains!"

Mo Baichan's eyes were full of anticipation as she said, "If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely go to the Central Plains to take a look."

Gu Guanqi said, "That's fine. If you go to the Central Plains, I'll be your tour guide."

"it is good."

Mo Baichan nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Brother Gu, I feel like you haven't been in a good mood these past few days. Are you still thinking about whether that world is real or not?"

Gu Guanqi nodded slightly and said, "That's true, but it's nothing serious."

The smooth election of a new Xianbei king effectively eliminated a powerful enemy of the Qian Kingdom. However, Gu Guanqi felt increasingly heavy-hearted, as he found the whole situation increasingly illogical.

Throughout history, the Hu people have been a huge threat to the Central Plains, and almost every emperor has been plagued by them.

In reality, over the past thousand years, the most outstanding masters have mainly come from the Qian Kingdom, but it seems that no one has ever used his method to directly have the top masters take action and cripple the core of the Hu people, thus eliminating the threat.

For example, right now, there's a prophecy that "Heaven's mandate is with the barbarians, and bloodshed will ensue in the Central Plains."

However, more than 60% of the most powerful masters in the world are in the Qian Kingdom, and the number of hidden masters in the Hu people's territories combined cannot possibly exceed that of the Qian Kingdom.

In a context where a single top expert can influence a large-scale battle, national strength, population, and weaponry seem to be less important.

In a normal war, many top experts might be unwilling to take action. However, in a situation like the bloodshed in the Central Plains, very few experts would be able to remain calm. There are very few people in this world who are truly without attachments. If all the top experts of the Qian Kingdom were to launch an assassination, they would crush the Hu army in just a few days.

For over a thousand years, many dynasties have been overwhelmed by the Hu people, but none of them have done this. For example, in the first few decades after the founding of the Qian Kingdom, a large portion of the country's top experts served the court.

At that time, the Qian Kingdom was still frequently harassed by the Hu people. It had organized several large-scale foreign wars, but no expert had ever directly killed the Hu royal family, not even once.

In Gu Guanqi's previous life, in a world without supernatural powers, people would find ways to have assassins kill key figures to quell wars. But in this world with supernatural powers, no one uses this method.

Gu Guanqi felt as if some mysterious force was preventing this thought from happening.

This made him increasingly ponder the words that Duanmu Xian and Tan Shixuan said before they died.

"I think I should find Ye Wudi and Jun Ziyou to get some information," Gu Guanqi thought to himself. "They are definitely capable of killing an emperor single-handedly, especially Ye Wudi. He even led troops in battle when he was young. Why didn't he ever think about killing the emperor of an enemy country?"

At this moment, in the forest of the sacred mountain.

Gu Guanqi continued forward with Mo Baichan.

Upon hearing Gu Guanqi's words, Mo Baichan said, "Brother Gu, we'll be at my house soon. I'll go ask if the new Holy Maiden has appeared yet. If she has, I'll ask her to help you observe the divine bloodline."

Before long, Gu Guanqi and Mo Baichan arrived at a hilltop on the sacred mountain. Below was a flat area where a village was nestled.

This village is completely different from the common Xianbei villages. Here, there are wooden houses everywhere, not tents. Smoke rises from the chimneys, and there are roosters crowing and dogs barking, much like the villages in the Central Plains. Although there are many herds of cattle and sheep on the mountain, crops are planted everywhere, including rice paddies filled with rice. Now, the fields are golden, and it's almost harvest time.

"Brother Gu, are you surprised?" Mo Baichan said with a slight smile, "Doesn't our Mo Bai tribe resemble the Central Plains?"

Gu Guanqi nodded and said, "It is indeed very similar."

Mo Baichan said, "That's why I've always believed that there's a way to enable the Xianbei to grow food and trees."

In the past, our Mobai tribe was the same, mainly relying on raising cattle and sheep, constantly migrating throughout the year, with a small number of people staying on the sacred mountain. Later, after I became the Holy Maiden, I gradually cultivated grain seeds suitable for the climate of the sacred mountain, including rice from your Central Plains, based on the environment of the sacred mountain.

"Now that we can cultivate grain on a large scale, we will naturally no longer need to migrate. I also consulted with the Central Plains people who came to the Xianbei and learned how to build stoves and houses. I want to spread this method throughout the Xianbei and all the grasslands, so that trees and grains can be planted everywhere, and no one will suffer from hunger or cold anymore. Then there will be no more war in the world!"

Gu Guanqi was somewhat impressed; Mo Baichan's initiative was truly remarkable.

"Holy Maiden, Holy Maiden!"

Just then, an old man from the village rushed out, shouting as he ran towards Gu Guanqi and Mo Baichan.

The old man had a full head of white hair and a face full of wrinkles; he was at least seventy or eighty years old, but he ran very fast.

Mo Baichan said, "That is our tribe's Great Shaman, Mo Baisi. He is the most knowledgeable and skilled martial artist in our tribe."

Seeing Mo Baisi rushing over, Mo Baichan quickly went to greet him.

"Great Shaman, why are you in such a hurry? Has something happened in the tribe?" Mo Baichan asked.

Mo Baisi, with one hand over his stomach, bowed respectfully and said, "Holy Maiden, recently many young people in the tribe seem to have shown signs of bloodline awakening. The people in the tribe are wondering if something bad has happened to you! But if you are alright, how come so many young people in the tribe are showing signs of bloodline awakening?"

Mo Baichan explained, "Great Shaman, it's normal for someone to show signs of bloodline awakening. I did indeed encounter a crisis outside. The former Xianbei king, Tan Shixuan, joined forces with an evil cultivator who impersonated a Xuan Bird under the Changsheng Heaven, intending to launch a war."

I tried to stop him, but that evil cultivator stripped the divine bloodline from my body. Now that I no longer have divine blood, it is natural for a new saintess to be born.

The high shaman asked anxiously, "How are you feeling?"

"It's alright," Mo Baichan said.

"Tan Shixuan actually dared to let someone impersonate the name of the Eternal Heaven—"

Mo Baichan said, "Don't worry, things have been taken care of. In a while, the new Xianbei king will come to the sacred mountain to offer sacrifices." After saying that, she introduced Gu Guanqi and said, "Great Shaman, this is Brother Gu from the Central Plains. His name is Gu Guanqi. He is the one who helped me deal with Tan Shixuan and that evil cultivator. He is currently facing some trouble and needs to stay in our tribe for a while."

Mo Baisi looked at Gu Guanqi, a hint of shock flashing in his dim, yellowed eyes, and said, "Gu—Gu Guanqi? You're the Sword Immortal of Qian Kingdom?"

Gu Guanqi cupped his hands and said, "Great Shaman, have you heard of me?"

Mo Baisi nodded and said, "We grassland kingdoms have always paid close attention to the Central Plains. Sword Immortal Gu Guanqi is the most famous and powerful person in Qian Kingdom. We have naturally heard of him. Everyone says that you are the most handsome man in the world, just like an immortal, and very easy to recognize."

Gu Guanqi asked, "Then, Great Shaman, may I stay for a while?"

Mo Baisi quickly replied, "It is an honor for our Mo Bai tribe to have you visit. However, we are just ordinary people who have never seen much of the world. If there is anything offensive, please forgive us!"

"The Great Shaman is overthinking it," Gu Guanqi said. "I also really hope that the people of the Mo Bai tribe can treat me like an ordinary person."

"That's easy to say," Mobais said. "Although you are very famous, the common people in our border region know very little about you. In our tribe, apart from the Holy Maiden, only a few shamans know about you. I'll go and instruct them not to tell anyone."

"good!"

Mo Baisi quickly said, "Please."

Immediately, Gu Guanqi, Mo Baichan, and Mo Baisi entered the Mo Bai tribe.

Although the Mo Bai tribe is a tribe, it is not large in scale, just a village. The village's structure is completely modeled after the villages of the Qian Kingdom. Except for the different clothing and appearance of the people here, everything else is very similar, which makes Gu Guanqi feel somewhat familiar.

However, Gu Guanqi, dressed in Han Chinese attire, stood out among the crowd and attracted a lot of attention.

Before long, the group arrived at a small courtyard in the village. It wasn't a large, walled compound, but rather a small house surrounded by a fence.

There are several small bamboo houses in the courtyard.

Mo Baisi said, "Holy Maiden, please take Mr. Gu inside and settle him in first. Then come to the Hall of Longevity. I will summon the other shamans to discuss the matter of the new Holy Maiden."

"Okay, I'll be there in a bit."

After saying that, Mo Baichan pushed open the small door and said, "Brother Gu, please come in. This is my home. My parents passed away a long time ago, and I live alone."

Gu Guanqi followed him inside.

Mo Baisi stood at the door for a while, then turned and left.

Mo Baichan's courtyard was very clean, and the furnishings were very much in the style of the Central Plains, with almost no trace of the Xianbei people.

Mo Baichan went to the kitchen to start a fire, boiled a pot of water for Gu Guanqi, and then made up a bed for Gu Guanqi.

It's been almost half an hour since I finished this task.

"Brother Gu, you can rest for a while, or you can go for a stroll in the tribe. I'm going to the Hall of Longevity; there are some things about the handover of the Holy Maiden that need to be clarified. I'll come back and cook for you in a bit," Mo Baichan said.

Gu Guanqi nodded slightly.

Mo Baichan immediately went out the door.

Gu Guanqi didn't go out for a stroll; instead, he went into his room to meditate.

The Hall of Longevity sounds imposing, but in reality, it's just a relatively large wooden house in the Mo Bai tribe, where the statue of the God of Longevity is enshrined.

When Mo Baichan entered the Hall of Longevity, there were already four old men and two old women sitting inside, who were the six shamans of the Mo Bai tribe.

Mo Baichan first knelt before the statue of the deity and worshipped it very devoutly before slowly getting up and sitting in the main seat.

All six shamans rose and bowed.

Mo Baichan waved for the group to sit down and said, "Tan Shixuan has been corrupted by power and has betrayed the Eternal Heaven. He was already planning to kill me when I came down the mountain this time—"

Then, Mo Baichan recounted her experiences, her encounter with Gu Guanqi, and the election of the new Xianbei king.

After listening, all six shamans looked solemn.

Mo Baisi said in a deep voice, "Holy Maiden, are you saying that Gu Guanqi, single-handedly, not only killed that incredibly powerful evil cultivator, but also immediately slaughtered 20,000 royal knights?"

Mo Baichan sighed and said, "Brother Gu's actions were too bloodthirsty, but I had neither the ability nor the right to stop him."

Mo Baisi swallowed hard and said, "This isn't a question of stopping them or not. Can a person be this powerful?"

Mo Baichan said, "Just treat him like a god!"

"We can only consider him a god," Mobai sighed. "No—he is a god!"

Another shaman said, "Forget it, our Mobai tribe has never interfered in the affairs of the royal court. Now that the royal court has encountered this change, perhaps it is also the arrangement of the Eternal Heaven."

Another shaman said, "Yes, let's talk about the upcoming sacrifice at the Holy Mountain by the new Holy Maiden and the new King."

Immediately afterwards, Mo Baichan began to discuss with several shamans.

About an hour later, the basic matters were settled, and everyone got up and left the Hall of Longevity, then went their separate ways.

"Great Shaman!"

Mo Baichan called out to Mo Baisi, who was about to leave, and said, "I have some questions for you."

Mobais stopped and asked, "What is it, Holy Maiden?"

Mo Baichan said, "You are the most knowledgeable person in our Mo Bai tribe, and even in the entire Xianbei. I would like to ask, how can one recover from a loss of mental well-being?"

Mobes said, "That's too broad. Which aspect specifically? Are you, Saintess?"

"It wasn't me," Mo Baichan said. "It was Brother Gu. He heard some ideas and now he's starting to doubt that this world is real. He suspects that this world is just a book, and all living things are just a few strokes in that book."

Mo Baisi pondered for a moment and said, "This is because his cultivation level is too high. The higher the cultivation level, the easier it is for a cultivator to become immersed in the Dao, and they will often become more and more obsessed and delusional."

"Is there any way to help him get through this?" Mo Baichan said, "He's very unhappy, and I want to make him happy."

"Holy Maiden," Mo Baisi raised his head, looked at Mo Baichan, and said, "Gu Guanqi is immersed in the Dao, and you—you are probably immersed in Gu Guanqi. However, you and he are not from the same world, and this will cause you harm."

Mo Baichan chuckled and said, "That's not important. It's my business if I like him, and it's also my business if I get hurt. But I love this world, and any hurt won't feel so heavy in the face of loving this world."

Mo Baisi thought for a moment and said, "Since you've already thought it through, then it doesn't matter. Regarding Gu Guanqi's problem, we need to approach it from two aspects: first, by seeing that book, and second, by getting him out of his shell and embracing the world."

Mo Baichan said, "I understand the second point, but what does the first point mean? Is it possible to see that book?"

Mo Bais hesitated for a moment before saying, "Actually, there really is."

"Hmm?" Mo Baichan asked in confusion, "Great Shaman, I may not have explained it clearly enough. The book that Brother Gu mentioned was written by a cultivator who refined my divine bloodline. It was refined, not awakened."

Then she said she saw the Eternal Heaven, and discovered that the world was all contained in a book called Destiny in the hands of the Eternal Heaven, and everything was written down in the Book of Destiny by the Eternal Heaven.

Mo Baisi nodded slightly and said, "Actually, the moment you told me that Mr. Gu thought this world was fake, I already knew that you were talking about the Book of Destiny."

Mo Baichan asked in surprise, "Great Shaman, you know about the Book of Destiny?"

"I not only know about it, I've also seen it," Mo Baisi said. "However, my cultivation level isn't high enough to know if it's true or not, but logically speaking, it should be true."

Mo Baichan quickly asked, "Where have you seen me before?"

"It's on the Holy Mountain," Mobes said.

Mo Baichan asked in confusion, "How come I've never heard of our Holy Mountain having a Book of Destiny?"

Mo Baisi shook his head and said, "It wasn't from our Holy Mountain, it was a strange man. That was about fifty years ago, when I was still very young."

One day, a crazy, uninvited guest came to the holy mountain. He shouted that the world was fake, everything was fake, and talked about gods and fate. He was holding a piece of paper in his hand, or rather, something that looked like paper.

That madman was terrifying. With just one shout, he knocked everyone in our tribe unconscious, except for me and the Holy Maiden Mo Baiqi.

Mo Baichan quickly pressed, "And then?"

Mo Baisi took a deep breath and said, "Fortunately, that madman didn't intend to kill anyone. After stunning everyone, he ran madly into the depths of the Holy Mountain."

But this person posed too great a threat, and the Holy Maiden Qi was extremely worried. She pursued him alone into the depths of the sacred mountain, a journey that lasted three months. Later, when the Holy Maiden returned, she told me that the madman was actually Wang Jingtian.

"Who is Wang Jingtian?" Mo Baichan asked.

Mo Baisi said, "Fifty years ago, the world's number one martial artist was just like Mr. Gu today, whose martial arts were ridiculously powerful. However, unlike Mr. Gu, Wang Jingtian was a martial arts fanatic."

After he became famous, he challenged all the masters in the world. In just a few years, he challenged all the top masters in the world without a single defeat. Therefore, he became the recognized number one in the world.

After he disappeared, fifty years have passed, and no new number one in the world has appeared until recently, when the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion compiled a list of gods, and a new number one in the world was identified, namely Fuke Gyatso, the living Buddha of the ancient kingdom of Tan Yue.

But Wang Jingtian back then was far superior to Fuke Gyatso. Many people today question Fuke Gyatso, and even those in the top five of the current divine rankings are often called the greatest in the world. Yet, back then, no one questioned Wang Jingtian.

Mo Baichan asked, "So what happened after that?"

Mo Baisi said, "Back then, after the Holy Maiden Qi returned, she told me Wang Jingtian's identity. She said that Wang Jingtian had been appeased by her, but he couldn't do without her. If she left Wang Jingtian for too long, he might lose control."

So she severed her divine bloodline herself, allowing the Eternal Heaven to choose a new Holy Maiden, while she went deep into the Holy Mountain and never came out again.

Before leaving, she told me that Wang Jingtian went mad because his cultivation was too high, so high that he broke through the limitations of the world and saw the truth of the world. The truth was that everything in this world was written by the gods in a book called Destiny.

"They came down."

Mo Baichan's heart tightened, and she said, "Isn't this exactly what Brother Gu said?"

Mo Baisi continued, "But Wang Jingtian was too strong. He saw a god, challenged a god, and tore a page of the Book of Destiny from the god's hand!"
