Translator: 549690339

“Teacher…”

Xuanji had that dream again.

In the dream, he saw a piece of primal chaos. Purple light filled the air. A new universe had yet to be born within the thick primal chaos.

Someone was walking towards him from the depths of the primal chaos. Behind that person was the magnificent scene of the birth of the universe. At this moment, he was a mass of primal chaos energy without a body.

“Teacher.”That figure approached him and called out to him.

However, he was unable to wake him up.

He heard this voice and wanted to open his eyes to see the person’s face clearly. However, he did not have a physical body at the moment. He was just a mass of energy.

In the end, the light of the life creation tribulation came from behind that person and drowned him.

Xuanji woke up from his sweat and panted heavily.

He had unknowingly fallen asleep leaning against the tree again. His forehead, chest, back, and palms were all covered in cold sweat, and the whip had fallen to the ground at some point in time.

The bleating of a yellow sheep could be heard from above his head. Xuanji picked up the whip and stood up, looking up at the tree.

This tree was unbelievably big. The roots that were exposed on the ground were like a continuous mountain range. There were mountains and seas on the tree, and the veins of the tree were mountains and rivers. The dew accumulated in the leaves was the sea, and on the leaves was the continent, there were rivers and forests. Large and small countries, cities, and villages were built on this tree.

This tree supported many worlds in the heavens.

The world class on the tree was strict. The higher the race lived on the tree, the higher their status was. They had the protection of the gods and were God’s people.

The race that lived at the bottom of the world tree had a lower status and was abandoned by the gods.

Xuanji’s race was at the bottom of the vast world tree. The people at the bottom were the servants of the upper class. Servants had no status, including their names and lives. They did not belong to them.

Xuanji gathered the two-legged yellow sheep and counted them. There was no loss. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.

The yellow sheep were very mischievous. These two-legged sheep were very agile in the world tree and could climb the steep land of the world tree. However, if they came to the ground from the tree, they would be like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, they would be easily captured by the ferocious beasts on the ground.

Xuanji’s task was to keep an eye on these yellow sheep and prevent them from sneaking to the ground.

There was a yellow sheep jumping around. From time to time, it planned to go around him and play under the tree.

Xuanji narrowed his eyes and felt the breeze with some satisfaction. He thought of the dream again.

This strange dream had been with him since he was born. The same dream kept repeating itself. Xuanji did not know what this dream meant.

Every time he recalled that strange dream, he could not help but hear the loud sound of the world being split apart. With that sound, everything in the world seemed to become unusually bright and colorful in his eyes.

He had been different from others since he was young.

He looked at the surrounding scenery greedily, and suddenly, he had a mysterious and wonderful feeling in his heart.

He could “See”the flow of wind and water, “See”the migration of energy in different things, and “See”all kinds of wonderful principles quietly dominating everything in the world, even life, and even gods!

This was not what his wisdom eye saw, but what he felt in his heart.

He sensed this mysterious and magical feeling.

This wonderful feeling made him feel a great joy in his heart, and it made his eyes fill with tears.

“That wonderful thing is flowing in the World Tree!”An excited shout came from his heart.

He lay on the ground and felt that wonderful thing. It seemed to contain boundless energy and endless knowledge, making him immersed and intoxicated.

He “Heard”the information contained in everything in the world. Everything in the world seemed to be talking to him and telling him the knowledge contained in them.

He became excited. He studied the soil, studied the flowers and plants, studied the trees, studied the branches and leaves, studied the dewdrops. From these seemingly ordinary things, he learned a lot of knowledge that he had never noticed before.

He felt that magical and mysterious thing. This knowledge was only an interpretation of that mysterious thing.

Whether it was the rocks, the trees, flowers, even the dewdrops, or even any living creature, they all contained an almost endless amount of knowledge. And this knowledge was the interpretation of that mysterious thing!

He called it “Dao”.

Studying the dao contained in all things, this action he called “Gewu”.

Knowing from Gewu, one could attain Dao.

This was his greatest discovery!

Moreover, he also had another wonderful discovery, which was that the world tree was a vessel of Dao.

The World tree was filled with various interpretations of Dao. He was keenly aware that different interpretations were divided into different branches and different roots of the world tree.

If he could use the world tree to sense the dao, he might be able to find out the source of the Dao, obtain the Dao, and master the Dao.

The youth became excited. At this moment, the camel bell rang. Xuanji looked towards the sound and saw a group of green camels walking towards him from the foothills formed by the bark of the world tree under the guidance of the black-robed men.

On the backs of those green camels were young girls dressed in bright clothes.

“They are wizards from the Upper World.”Xuanji recognized the black-robed men and quickly dispersed the yellow sheep to make way for them.

The black-robed wizards had solemn expressions as they led the green camels past him. The young girls on the green camels’backs were wearing red veils, and their faces could not be seen.

These well-dressed girls looked like brides, but the strange thing was, why were there so many brides?

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from a green camel, “Ah Xuan.”

Xuan Ji was stunned. He looked up and saw the face of a girl under the hood. It was the girl he liked. She lived in the next village, and her name was Su Su.

“Today is the day to worship the god. The villagers offered me to the god.”

The girl on the green camel said to him, “Today, I’m going to marry the god.”

Xuan Ji’s mind buzzed. Marry a god?

Didn’t they already say that they were going to marry me?

The Wizard urged the girl on the green camel to put down the veil. The camel bell rang and they walked toward the world tree.

“Su Su, do you still remember those vows?”He said loudly.

“Yes –”

The girl turned her head, but she didn’t take off the veil. “What can you do? I’m a woman of God.”

I Am the Woman of God.

Xuanji was muddle-headed as he watched the green camel carry his beloved girl away. He looked down the tree and saw an incomparably majestic God sitting there.

Looking from the height of Xuanji, the incomparably majestic God was still extremely huge. The people around the God who were building the palace were as tiny as ants.

This god was bigger and more majestic than the gods on the world tree.

Tens of thousands of people shouted slogans, transporting huge rocks, mining huge trees, and mining divine gold. They worked hard around this majestic God, carving huge rocks into bricks, and planing huge trees into beams, smelting divine gold into glue, filling up the gaps in the walls.

The supervisors waved long whips, whipping the exhausted people. These people were the slaves of the rulers on the trees. With high-intensity labor, the slaves basically did not live past 30 years old.

The status of the slaves was lower than that of the slaves. The lives and names of the slaves were not their own. The slaves were livestock and did not deserve names.

The corpse carrier carried a few dead bodies of the slaves and drove to the mass graves in the distance. There, the wild dogs that ate the bodies were already hungry and howling.

The rulers and gods on the top level of the world tree would choose some beautiful girls every year to offer to the gods in order to please the God who sat under the world tree.

These girls were called goddesses by people.

The women of the god.

The girls who were chosen as goddesses could only live in the palace that the ruler built for the god. They were the private property of the god.

However, the dignified God never paid any attention to these goddesses. Some of the girls were sent to the palace as 11 or 12-year-old girls in their prime. However, in their whole lives, the god never looked at them.

For the rulers on the world tree, offering these beautiful girls to the god could maintain the legitimacy of their rule. It would make the Wizards announce to the outside world that the god had accepted their gifts, and the God had acquiesced to their rule.

How could the stupid people dare to resist?

However, for the god under the world tree, he probably did not care about this at all.

The goddesses died one after another, and the God never asked.

But the ruler of the upper world cared, the Wizards cared, and the God of the upper world also cared.

The ruler of the upper world called this god sitting under the world tree as Milo,

milo was broad, big, and far-reaching. This god was vast, deep, and unfathomable.

The gods in the upper world called him Tai Yi.

In the kingdom formed by the upper-class people on the world tree, gods of all sizes were worshipped. These gods protected the upper-class people in those kingdoms. The rulers and wizards were the descendants of the gods.

And Tai Yi was rumored to be the first God in the world, the oldest and most powerful god.

There were five ancestral gods in the world, and Tai Yi was one of them. He was also the supreme of the five ancestral gods.

He did not live in the upper world of the World Tree. Instead, he lived under the world tree.

The various countries on the world tree had been building palaces for supreme-being Milo for two to three thousand years.

During these two to three thousand years, Milo’s palace had only been built to the waist of Milo. Milo was sitting on the ground.

Even so, this Milo Palace was already tens of thousands of feet tall. This was the most magnificent man-made wonder, but it could not compare to Milo’s.

The rulers living on the top of the world tree planned to build a huge palace around the motionless God and put the majestic God in the palace they built.

This made Xuanji think of the god statue in the temple.

What a ridiculous and arrogant idea.

He thought to himself.

Which God would be willing to tolerate being put in a small brick box by a mortal?

The rulers who lived on the top of the world tree did not think so. They stubbornly wanted to build the Mino Palace and put the Free Mino into the Mino Palace.

Two to three thousand years had passed, and the rulers had died one generation after another. Generation after generation, the idea of putting the Mino into a “Box”had never changed.

Xuanji had never hated Mino before. He even felt some sympathy for him. However, now that his lover was about to become Mino’s bride, he somewhat hated Mino.

However, what he hated even more was the rulers of the upper world.

Milo did not do anything. He just sat under the tree. It was the rulers of the upper world who broke them up in order to please Milo!

Suddenly, Xuanji jumped up and jumped onto the back of the yellow goat. He rode the yellow goat and rushed towards the group of green camels.

“Susu, Milo Won’t care about you!”

He shouted loudly, “Milo has too many women! But I care about you.”

He said loudly to the girl, “I care about you! I like you, I want to sleep with you! I want to marry you, I want to have children with you, I want to have many, many children!”

Susu’s face was red with embarrassment. The girl on the Green Camel’s back had nowhere to hide.

This youth that she longed for day and night had an unspeakable straightforwardness and charm. He directly expressed his thoughts, without the slightest bit of euphemism, without the slightest bit of roundabout.

She also had the same thoughts.

But she never dared to say it directly. She could only beat around the bush and probe. Every time she beat around the bush, every time she probed, it caused her to be flustered. The nervousness and joy in her heart were like a pigeon that had come out of its cage, it was going to fly out with a crash.

But Xuanji did not beat around the bush and did not probe.

If the youth liked it, he liked it. If he loved it, he loved it.

The yellow sheep caught up with the green camel. Xuanji stretched out his hand to her. “We’ll Leave Now! We’ll elope!”

“How dare you!”

The Wizards leading the team were furious. They turned around and said, “When a goddess holds hands with a mortal, she is unclean. She must be purified by the Holy Fire…”

Xuanji carried Su Su with all his strength. The yellow sheep jumped over the wizards’heads. Su Su took off the veil and threw it at the Wizards’faces. She giggled and said, “Go back and tell God that I’m not going to marry!”
