【Entering Era - Divine Age! Converting...】
As the prompt in his mind finished, everything before Luo Chen began to change. The sky reversed, and his whole being vanished from the room, merging into an unknown place.
This wasn't his first time, he was already accustomed to this change.
As the transformation continued, Luo Chen could feel himself elevate to a god-like perspective. Before his eyes gradually appeared an endless expanse of yellow sand, ancient energy washing over his body.
In an instant, he arrived in a completely different world.
【First Day, you appear in a desert. This is a desolate, ancient land. There are no living beings as far as the eye can see.】
【You walk through this expanse of yellow sand, searching for any humans you might encounter, to understand the era and location you're in.】
Of course. Although it's the Divine Age, it's been such a long period, from the Age of the Ritual Caps to the Demon God War, all of which could be categorized as the Divine Age. Not being sure would be a hassle.
【For days on end, you find no living beings besides yourself. You don't give up, and finally...】
【Seventh Day, you suddenly encounter a strange, humanoid group struggling to survive in the desert. They have tails and beast ears. Almost all are ragged and destitute, their lips cracked and bodies thin, perpetually teetering on the edge of death.】
Beast ear girls? Beast-kin?
【Upon seeing them, you instinctively feel a sense of compassion and lend them a hand, allowing them to temporarily escape the threat of death.】
【Your simulation progress has increased.】
Randomly overflowing with love?
Demon Gods love mankind, that's how it is. This is the reason for the Lawful Good faction, and it aligns with the actions of a divine being.
【You ask them many questions, but they can't answer any. They only know this is a land called Yáng Lù, and you don't blame them for their anxiety.】
【Eighth Day, the surviving humanoid group kneels before you, begging you to become their god, to protect their innocent children.】
【Touched by their divinity, you feel compassion. Though you don't immediately agree, you promise to find them an oasis where they can survive for a long time, free from the shadow of death.】
【Receiving your answer, they kneel before you, weeping, praying, praising, like lost lambs finding their shepherd, willing to offer you everything, even their pure souls.】
【One month passes, you lead the original humanoid group on a journey to find an oasis, but you find nothing.】
【The only gain is that the group following you grows increasingly larger, from a few hundred, to a thousand... like water droplets merging into a river.】
【Hard work pays off, half a year passes, and you finally lead a humanoid group that has grown to three thousand in number, reaching a paradise-like oasis.】
【Ah, what a beautiful sight it is.】
【Clear springs flow like honey to both banks, merging into endless streams. Then, the streams irrigate green gardens, growing night-blue water lilies.】
【Sweeter than nectar, more beautiful than nurseries, purer than water lilies, are the elves who live among them.】
【Their figures are graceful, untouched by the dust of the world, their magnificent and noble bodies encapsulate all the beauty of the world.】
【This dreamlike land, like a magical dream, leaves all who see it stunned, unable to believe that such a fairyland exists in this land of yellow sand.】
【Seeing the outsiders arrive, the beautiful beings who call themselves "Zhèn Líng" welcome the lord of this place. It is a noble goddess.】
【Soon, the golden-haired goddess greets you. She calls herself "The Great Owner of Flowers."】
Wait, The Great Owner of Flowers? Yáng Lù land?
Could this be ancient Xú Mí, or before the era of the three ancient gods?
Could this be the legendary "Flower God"? Nà Bù Mā Lí Kǎ Tǎ? !
But it seems that she hasn't become friends with Chì Wáng Ā Hé Mā'ěr and Dà Cí Shù Wáng yet.
The timeline seems a bit early right now.
【The Great Owner of Flowers, seeing you, a being of her own kind, states that she has no intention of claiming the divine authority of this land. She invites you into this seemingly eternal oasis.】
Eternal Oasis!
Surrounded by honeyed springs and moonlit purple flowers, Luo Chen sits opposite the Flower Goddess, who possesses sun-bright golden hair.
"Unknown deity, what is your purpose in coming here?"
Gazing at the divine being before her, who radiates an undeniable and massive presence, the Great Owner of Flowers speaks in a clear, dreamlike voice.
Luo Chen also examines the Flower God. He remembers that she belongs to the Xiān Líng race. Once abandoned by the sky, her noble body was shattered, her people punished, losing their minds.
Until, wandering the earth for seventy-two nights, the blood that she shed from her feet became a spring, forming this garden that nurtures water lilies.
And Zhèn Líng, are the race born from the water lilies.
Due to the retention of the innocent Zhèn Líng, the exiled deity remained in this garden where flowers bloom.
Where she stopped, countless flowers bloomed with the stars – their name is Pà Tí Shā Lán.
Faced with the question, Luo Chen quickly responds: "I am a god who understands wisdom. I have fallen into this world, accompanied by human children. I fulfill their wishes, searching for a place where they can thrive and multiply."
Hearing this, the Great Owner of Flowers glances towards the outside of the garden, at the human group, cleansed and enjoying the nectar under the guidance of the Zhèn Líng. The vitality radiating from them anew under the divine protection brings a sense of comfort.
Not questioning his good intentions, as if it were a matter of course, the Great Owner of Flowers nods slightly.
【Afterwards, the Great Owner of Flowers promises to allow the human children to live here and asks about your purpose. Do you intend to claim the divine authority of this land?】
Divine authority?
If I'm not mistaken, this is probably the Seven Governors' "Divine Heart" of the mortal world.
【Knowing that you can't permanently stay in this era, you tell her that you have no intention of seizing divine authority.】
【For some unknown reason, she seems to become more amicable.】
【Afterwards, you and the Great Owner of Flowers discuss Tao for seventy-seven days. She greatly admires your profound wisdom, which encompasses the universe. You become friends.】
【After your discussions end, another seventy-seven days pass. Because this is someone else's territory, you intend to leave.】
【However, the original human children who came with you all kneel before you, weeping and begging you not to abandon them. Without the protection of a god, even if they find an oasis, they won't stay there. If you must go, take them with you and migrate together.】
【Pair after pair of pure and clear eyes, filled with hope, and a purity of faith that's unparalleled. In just half a year, they've seen you as the pillar upon which their survival rests. This deeply moves your heart.】
【The Zhèn Líng silently watch this scene, whispering to each other, seemingly drawing parallels to themselves.】
【Finally, the Great Owner of Flowers speaks, taking the initiative to keep you.】
【You ponder for a long time. Due to the lack of conflict over divine authority, and the nature of simulated life, you need to do things that align with the identity of a god to maintain your progress and unlock the final rewards.】
【Therefore】
【You agree to the Great Owner of Flowers' request.】
【You stay.】
【Your simulation progress increases significantly again.】
