Before them lay a lush green grassland, dotted with clusters of vibrant red and yellow flowers. Crystal-clear streams meandered through, revealing smooth pebbles at the bottom. Among the aquatic plants, small fish leisurely roamed. By the edge of the short bushes, a young deer chewing on tender green leaves stared at Ji Chen with innocent eyes, showing a hint of surprise.

“What place is this?”

Ji Chen surveyed the surroundings but found nothing else, so he walked through the grassland with his hands behind his back.

Deer grazing on the grass, groundhogs poking half their bodies out of burrows, and eagles with sharp eyes scanning the ground from the sky.

The air was fresh with a hint of fishiness, and Ji Chen’s shoes tread on the damp grass, rustling the bushes as the wind blew.

Everything he felt and saw seemed almost real, as if he had entered another world.

Ji Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks, gazing at a slender figure sitting quietly on the grassland ahead.

The figure had six arms of emerald green jade, each in a different pose, resembling the image of Guanyin. Vines entwined around the wrists, and the figure wore a silk robe in wheat color, with a robe of auspicious patterns on the golden crystal floating antlers. The skin was engraved with intricate green divine patterns, mysterious and boundless.

As if sensing Ji Chen’s approach, the figure slowly opened its eyes, revealing deep and unfathomable eyes.

Looking at Ji Chen, as if comprehending something, it spoke with a mouthful of divine laws.

…It seems that the Natural Divine Lineage has indeed perished.”

“But here, it seems to have given us a glimmer of hope for revival.”

Ji Chen remained silent, beginning to form some understanding of this unknown existence.

Perhaps this was the main god who ruled the entire Natural Divine Lineage, the upper god of nature and abundance—Moriah Aulis.

But didn’t the gods of nature and abundance fall in the divine battle hundreds of thousands of years ago? How could they exist here?

Seemingly seeing Ji Chen’s confusion, the neutral voice with boundless divinity lightly laughed.

“It seems you are somewhat puzzled by my appearance here?”

Ji Chen paused for a moment, then spoke frankly.

“Aren’t you already fallen?”

“Yes, indeed, I have fallen. I was besieged by a dozen dark gods, isolated and helpless. Feeling hopeless to retreat, I secretly divided and merged my soul into the authority, letting my divine soul hide in it, allowing my divine allies to take it back to the divine realm.

This body now only relies on a strand of soul left by the authority, waiting for someone with destiny to discover it. Unfortunately, the other gods of the Divine Lineage were all in awe of me and dared not attempt to control this authority…”

Moriah Aulis sighed faintly, seeming to regret deeply.

If at that time the other gods of the Natural Divine Lineage had controlled this natural authority after her “fall”, it might have given birth to another upper god, preventing the rapid decline of the Natural Divine Lineage until Ji Chen’s sudden arrival, which made him realize that the Natural Divine Lineage had already perished.

But Ji Chen suddenly realized and understood. Moriah Aulis should be one of the two last divine spirits of the Natural Divine Lineage, and this is just a remnant soul left by the last two natural spirits.

Is this considered fallen or not fallen?

But he didn’t dwell on this issue and asked.

“Where is this place?”

This place is a special space I created in the authority before my fall. It feels and touches no different from the outside world. This is also a precautionary measure that allowed me to survive until now with the state of a broken soul.” “I can only exist here. The only downside is not being able to feel the passage of time. Human, could you tell me what has happened in the outside world and how long it has been since the Divine War ended?”

Ji Chen replied, “Roughly over four hundred thousand years have passed since it ended.”

The gods of Nature and Abundance displayed a look of astonishment. Ji Chen pursed his lips and briefly recounted the events of the past hundreds of thousands of years and what was happening now.

The expressions of the gods of Nature and Abundance were somewhat bewildered. For her, who had remained here since the remnants of the Divine War fell, the last war had ended, and now there was a new one, it was like a World War I veteran who had crash-landed and waited for rescue on an unnamed island, only to be told after a long wait that World War I had already ended, and it was now World War II, but the feeling of confusion was the same when the war was launched by the same country.

Absurdity, skepticism,…

“After the last defeat of the Dark Deity and being suppressed, it has once again initiated the Divine War?” Moriah Aulis lightly snorted, “These evil deities are indeed persistent… But compared to the dimensional crisis you mentioned, it’s nothing.”

“So, human, have you come here seeking power to deal with the impending crisis?”

“Indeed, that’s the case. My subordinates have probably already mastered the powers left by those two natural deities.” Ji Chen spoke frankly, “And I intend to control these natural powers.”

“You’re quite candid… But do you have the qualifications for that?” Moriah Aulis didn’t get angry. Just like her gentle face, she was like the mother of all things, accommodating everything, accepting everything.

She chuckled. “I can see that you have already embarked on the path to godhood, and you control more than one power, and you can come before me… Moreover, you have a great destiny.”

I think, human, perhaps your arrival here was already destined. That being the case, take it.”

Moriah Aulis noticed Ji Chen’s hesitation and said, “There’s no need to worry. I am just a fragmented soul, incomplete, incapable of any means of possession. I can only rely on the power of authority to maintain the status quo.”

Ji Chen fell silent for a moment. “Why are you willing to entrust the power of nature to me, Moriah Aulis?”

“I’ve already said it. You have a great destiny. Perhaps you can reignite a spark in the already silent natural divine lineage.”

Although she was just a remnant soul, Moriah Aulis looked divine, and it was also the first time Ji Chen had seen a god.

“…If I control the power of nature, will you, Moriah Aulis, disappear?”

“As long as the power doesn’t disappear, this space won’t collapse, and I won’t disappear.” Moriah Aulis joked, “As long as you, human, don’t burn bridges after crossing the river and destroying the power, I can continue to exist.” After a moment’s pause, Ji Chen no longer hesitated and nodded. “In that case, let’s begin.”

Moriah Aulis didn’t say much either. Two jade stone arms above her formed a cradling posture, and a dazzling green light suddenly flashed, illuminating the entire world in a fluorescent green.

Ji Chen’s eyes gradually changed, reaching out to receive it.

Boom –

The realm of the Nature God suddenly trembled violently. Countless beings panicked and fled, even the towering giant trees swayed incessantly, shedding leaves and branches. This disturbance alarmed countless hidden natural realm armies.

The army of insect-like clouds soared into the sky, all looking towards the Ocean Crown army, these unwelcome guests.

The faces of the heroes changed slightly.

“Prepare for battle.. We must not let them disturb the Lord!”
