Chapter 1532: Chapter 834. Divine Prison?
Chapter 834
Afterward, one will ascend from the Divine Continent to the Divine World. In fact, the Divine World isn’t much different from the Human World! Even gods must continue cultivating and strengthening themselves; otherwise, they could be exterminated by other gods. In the Divine World, it is also a survival-of-the-fittest realm where the strong rule. The Divine World has forces distributed across its expanse, along with fierce competition over resources. If a god in the Divine World commits an error, they may be captured and punished or even executed by powerful forces such as the Divine Mansion. When gods of more influential and powerful forces commit a mistake, they might bring about collective pursuit and extermination by other gods…” Xiaolei shared everything he knew with Mo Jiuli in one enthusiastic breath.
Only then did Mo Jiuli come to understand that the Dark World that Little Lingling mentioned was, in fact, just the Divine Prison. Could it be that her dad and mom were gods? Were they gods who had committed mistakes? Mo Jiuli couldn’t help but feel a pang of doubt in her heart…
“Xiaolei, if those gods make an error and are imprisoned in the Dark World, can they still live freely there?” Mo Jiuli asked, looking at Xiaolei.
“I heard from our Boss that all gods banished to the Forbidden Land lose their memories and their physical bodies. To be precise, their actual physical bodies are destroyed by chaotic spatial flows while en route to the Forbidden Land. Only their souls are cast into the Forbidden Land. Once their souls enter, all their memories are wiped away, and they completely forget who they are. Everything must start anew! The overseer of the Forbidden Land is a patriarch who serves as the Lord of Light in the Light World, alongside his clan. The Lord of Light is actually the little brother-in-law of the Divine Light God’s wife in the Divine World! Thus, how those gods fare in the Forbidden Land is something only the forces associated with the Light God might know. Outsiders can never find out!” Xiaolei explained in a dramatic, gossipy tone.
Mo Jiuli fell silent upon hearing this, but an inexplicable sense of disgust toward the Light God arose in her heart.
“Goddess, are you really planning to go to the Dark World?” Xiaolei asked with some concern.
“Yes, I must go!” Mo Jiuli said resolutely.
No matter what, she had to go—for Little Lingling, and for her dad and mom…
“Goddess… Take this with you. If you encounter danger, crush it!” Xiaolei thought for a moment, then spat out a pitch-black pearl that gleamed like ink and handed it to Mo Jiuli.
Mo Jiuli accepted the pearl, feeling a cool sensation in her hand. Yet she could also sense an immense power sealed within it. She frowned and asked, “Xiaolei, what is this?”
“Goddess, this is something I picked up by accident; it’s a treasure. If you run into any peril, crush it—it might be able to help you. Remember that!” Xiaolei said purposefully.
Then, with a gesture, Mo Jiuli was startled to find that the pearl had been pressed directly into the back of her hand by Xiaolei, leaving a small black dot where it had been applied…
Mo Jiuli didn’t overthink it and nodded. “Alright, I understand! You should hurry back. If I can return from the Dark World, I’ll come see you again!”
“Alright, Goddess, I’ll be waiting for you! Take care of yourself and Baobao!” Xiaolei said.
“Okay, Xiaolei, you too!” Mo Jiuli replied before jumping off the clouds.
Xiaolei, while steering his own Dark Clouds away, glanced wistfully back at Mo Jiuli. “Goddess, you have to take care of yourself; I’ll be protecting you…”
What he gave Mo Jiuli wasn’t an ordinary pearl but his most precious Essence of Thunder.
