One ought to know that the Eastern and Western Continents had not been in contact for many years. The earliest record was a few hundred thousand years ago of experts crossing the ocean to reach the Western Continent. However, in this era, before gene unlocking cultivation methods appeared, the strongest experts were at the condensed pearl realm. How could someone at that realm cross the ocean?
He had lived for over 5,000 years, already halfway through his life. If he still couldn't find a divine country and become a god, he would die.
Becoming a god wasn't a powerful thing. Rather, it was because of the eternal existence of faith. Gods were protected by the divinity of the godhead. Without external factors, they wouldn't die.
Since Zhong Bing arrived at the Western Continent, the godhead in his hand had become brighter.
Zhong Bing guessed that this was because the godhead wasn't too far away from a divine country.
In the Era of Gods, there were also new demigods who became true gods, only to be killed and robbed of their godheads. There were too many such cases.
The godhead in Zhong Bing's hand was the godhead of a new true god. Perhaps the new god had used the godhead to block an enemy's attack when he knew he would die or when he was fighting. The godhead was shattered, but before the true god died, he wouldn't let the enemy steal his godhead and throw it into a spatial crack. Finally, after an unknown number of years, the godhead reappeared in the world. However, by the time the godhead reappeared, there were no more gods.
Generally speaking, new true gods were all backed by a faction. As such, they were treated well. As for new true gods without a backer, they weren't treated so well. It was common for them to be killed.
In fact, when Liu Yu was fusing the numerous divine countries, he had discovered no less than 100 divine countries. Those divine countries were only tens of thousands of meters in diameter to tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter. Such divine countries were simply not worth mentioning in front of divine countries with diameters of millions of kilometers. As such, Liu Yu hadn't fused them at all.
The other reason was to leave behind some of these planes to increase the foundation of the cultivation world, such as the blessed lands.
Most of the divine realms would collapse over time if they didn't have the power of faith to replenish their divine realms.
As for Zhong Bing, it was impossible for tens of thousands of tier 3 genetic warriors to come to the Western Continent without being discovered.
As the spy of the Great Dragon Kingdom, Xu Li was also the king's eyes. He was the person in charge of the King's Eye organization in the Northwest.
There were beggars, civilians, peddlers, soldiers, and low-level officials in the King's Eye organization. There was nothing you couldn't think of that did not exist.
Zhong Bing's fleet of more than a hundred ships had come to the coast from the sea, so they were naturally discovered. Although the warships were then hidden, this matter had already been reported to the central command of the kingdom.
However, the kingdom had yet to figure out the purpose of this group of people, which was why they had yet to take action. The main reason was because these tens of thousands of people were extremely powerful. The weakest among them was a rank 3 genetic warrior. Even an army of several million would not be able to take them down.
As such, the Great Dragon Kingdom had already gathered all their genetic warriors and secretly rushed to Lin Province.
Lin City was near the sea, and it was also where Zhong Bing and the others were hiding.
After several months of investigation, Xu Li still couldn't find out what the goal of this group of people was. The main reason was that he couldn't get close to their camp. He could only infer their purpose based on the goods they went out to purchase, and then ask the peddlers if they had heard anything.
Most of the information they gathered was about what these people were looking for. Firstly, they did not ask about the kingdom's military, the city's defenses, or the stability of the kingdom. Thirdly, they did not ask about the kingdom's stability. What they did most of the time was to collect folklore and folklore, as well as where there were strange places.
This caused Xu Li to be at a loss. They were tens of thousands of rank 3 genetic warriors!
They did not mobilize such a powerful force to invade. Instead, they were searching for ancient folklore and asking about the kingdom's mountains and rivers.
What were they looking for?
Or were they looking for cultivation methods from the ancient era?
Those cultivation methods were useless now. In this world where spiritual energy was scarce, they were not very useful.
One reason was that they were looking for treasures.
It was said that treasures had always existed in the Western Continent, but they had never been found.
Another reason was that they were looking for some ruins.
A lot of ruins had been discovered in the Great Dragon Kingdom. Among them, there were many precious metals and ancient items. After these items were replicated, they were all business opportunities. Therefore, the Great Dragon Kingdom placed great importance on the search for ruins. For this reason, they even established the official position of archaeologist.
In the end, Xu Li guessed that one of them was looking for treasures, the other was looking for some precious ruins. Otherwise, they wouldn't have mobilized such a huge force. The last possibility was that they were looking for some unknown secret.
Afterward, Xu Li sent the information he had gathered and his own speculations to the Great Dragon Kingdom's capital.
Regardless of what they were looking for, those tens of thousands of rank 3 genetic warriors were an unforgettable threat. Even if they weren't invading the Great Dragon Kingdom, they still had to be on guard.
Maintaining the stability of the kingdom was the bottom line. Any threat to the stability of the kingdom had to be dealt with in advance.
"How's the investigation going?" Zhong Bing asked.
Your Majesty, according to the information we gathered from the folklore of the Great Dragon Kingdom and the folklore of the Eastern Continent, the stories are basically the same.
The legends of God have always been circulating in the Western Continent.
According to the folklore of the Western Continent, two million years ago, the gods attacked the heavens. As for the Eastern Continent, it was a war between the gods, but there was no such thing.
However, we can be sure of one thing. Two million years ago, there was a group of powerful cultivators. They called themselves God. One can imagine how powerful they were during that era.
The era of God was, after all, too distant. Relics of God and items related to the era of God were very rare, let alone understanding the era of God.
Two million years of changes in the world was enough to erase a lot of things.
That was two million years. Even God's bones would be turned into coal.
In fact, there was another kind of object that had always existed between the heavens and the earth, and that was the statue of God. The statue of God not only looked like the founder, but more importantly, the statue was protected by the heavens and the earth. No matter how the heavens and the earth changed, Liu Yu's statue could be seen everywhere in the world.
However, no one in the world believed that it was an ancient statue of God.
In a spacious space, there was a towering tree. Its trunk was incomparably huge, and its top reached the clouds and then connected to the void. If one looked at it from the outside, the whole space was covered by the tree's roots.
The originally quiet towering tree suddenly shook. Then, a voice came from the trunk. "It's been two million years. The godhood of the Divine Kingdom still exists in the world?"
