Chapter 59
59 Bad News, God’s Resurrection Vessel, Liu Xiangxiang
“What did you say?”
Lin Sen’s breathing paused for a moment. In the next moment, his eyes stared fixedly at Yagyu Ichiken. His voice was like sandpaper rubbing against each other as he squeezed it out from between his teeth.
“God of Fish?
“Resurrect?
“Are you planning to… use my only relative as a sacrifice to the gods?”
A chill suddenly rose in the quiet air.
Lin Sen’s killing intent seemed tangible. The indestructible branches of the Kabbalah Tree of Life poked out from the void in all directions.
Under the silver moonlight, like thousands of sharp swords with their tips pointed at Yagyu Ichiken.
Lin Sen could handle everything calmly.
Only when it concerned Liu Xiangxiang, he would never allow anyone to covet her, not in the slightest!
A cool breeze blew through Yagyu Ichiken’s long hair, as it fluttered gently under the moonlight.
The smile on his lips did not change.
His eyes were clearly blindfolded, but gave people the feeling that he had seen a harmless little mouse with its hair standing on end, and was now revealing a look of interest.
This person was definitely not as approachable as he appeared to be!
Lin Sen felt a chill in his heart.
He was already prepared to return to the God-level Farm at any time to avoid this person’s pursuit.
“Mr. Lin, there’s no need to be so nervous.
“Listen to what I have to say before you consider whether or not to become my enemy.”
At this moment,
Yagyu Ichiken smiled and spoke.
He ignored Lin Sen’s hostile aura and spoke in a polite and soft voice, as if all of this was as laughable and harmless as a child’s toy.
“Hunting and resurrecting the God of Fish from Miss Liu Xiangxiang’s body was a mission that I was determined to succeed in, but we are only playing the role of a silly hunter guarding the crude and stupid trap.”
Lin Sen’s expression did not change. He slightly retracted the branches of the Kabbalah Tree of Life that were emitting a cold light and listened to Yagyu Ichiken’s introduction.
“You might not know.
“The so-called gods live in high-dimensional worlds, possessing infinite power and looking down on everything in our world. In their eyes, we might just be a book, a comic, a character that can’t be any shorter.
“But the gods are not out of reach!
The corners of Yagyu Ichiken’s mouth gradually cracked open. In Lin Sen’s vigilant gaze, a strange smile appeared.
“Like there’s no eternal kingship,
the gods fight each other, devour, destroy, and be reborn.
“The winner gets everything, the loser loses everything.
“Gods are not sacred. They are just another group of creatures driven by desire.
“They will also die, they will also age, and they will also reach the end of their rope.”
He paused.
Yagyu Ichiken retracted his smile and regained his warm temperament as a gentleman. He calmly faced Lin Sen with an interesting look.
“Now that you have calmed down, I think you should be clear about what happens next.
“You, who have the power of the beast god, should know this.
“When the gods die, they will not fall directly. Instead, they will gradually be reborn from the bodies of believers and blood descendants, replacing their souls bit by bit until they descend into the world again in the manner of ‘saints’ and go on their divine path again.
“I’m sorry to share that ten years ago, the God of Fish was proven to have been devoured by the Beast God. His believers and descendants were all slaughtered by the beasts under the Beast God’s command.
“Miss Liu Xiangxiang is the blood descendant of the God of Fish. She is also the only blood descendant right now.
“And my purpose in coming to Xia Country is to bring Miss Liu Xiangxiang back to Sakura Country and find an opportunity to completely wipe out this resurrected god.”
Yagyu Ichiken smiled,
“Of course, the reason why we are going to so much trouble is naturally because of the remnant divine power of the God of Fish.”
Yagyu Ichiken spoke very softly and simply, as if this was an insignificant matter.
But Lin Sen, who was opposite him, did not think so.
“Fish beasts, merfolk, the God of Fish!”
Lin Sen was gritting his teeth so hard he was about to crush them.
He knew that after the gods died, they would be reborn from their own believers and descendants.
He also knew that Liu Xiangxiang was a merfolk and a carrier of the royal bloodline of the Fish Beast’s emperor.
However, he never expected this.
There was actually a god in the clan, and this god had coincidentally died.
What was even more coincidental was that the only descendants and believers of the God of Fish, the merfolk and the Fish Beasts, were all dead. Only Liu Xiangxiang was qualified to be the resurrection medium of the God of Fish.
The villainous heavens are playing with me, huh?
“Will this hurt my sister?”
Taking a deep breath, Lin Sen stared at Yagyu Ichiken and asked.
“Sigh.”
Yagyu Ichiken sighed and put on a troubled expression.
“The resurrection ritual of the gods is an even more fantastical method.
“Their will and imprints will appear in the resurrection vessel bit by bit. At first, the vessel will only find it strange, but it won’t cause much of a change.
“However, as time passes, the memories and imprints of the god will increase. The memories that are hundreds of millions of years old will drown the memories of the host soul that are less than a hundred years old.
“Until one day, the vessel completely inherits all the memories and imprints of the gods, abandoning the insignificant memories of a human and completely becomes the resurrected god that we speak of.”
“F*ck!”
Lin Sen cursed.
“In other words, when the God of Fish descends, my sister would technically have been killed by it?”
Through injecting countless years of memories, crush and discard the memories of the vessel that were less than a hundred years old.
Even if she doesn’t carry the mark of a god, would Liu Xiangxiang who would no longer see him as her younger brother as if she had been possessed, still really be his sister?
Yagyu Ichiken nodded slowly. A faint smile appeared on his face as he agreed with Lin Sen’s words.
“Then…”
Lin Sen’s handsome face looked a little hateful because of his ferocious expression.
He stared straight at Yagyu Ichiken’s eyes that were covered by the cloth and said word by word,
“Is there any way you can stop this?
“Let the God of Fish die completely and protect my sister from any harm!!”
“I’m sorry…”
Yagyu Ichiken put on an apologetic expression that appeared very hypocritical in Lin Sen’s eyes. His voice was calm.
“As for the knowledge of gods, the only thing that humans have grasped so far is the size of a grain of sand in the vast Milky Way.
“Even the organization closest to the power of the gods on our entire planet can’t stop the resurrection of the gods.
“They can’t even pause or slow down the process.”
Lin Sen closed his eyes.
His good mood during the day was shattered.
Gods.
The highest existence in this world.
The difference between them and humans was perhaps even greater than the difference between humans and bacteria.
Liu Xiangxiang was regarded as a vessel for resurrection by such an existence. This was like a mountain that could fall at any moment, even breathing seemed extravagant to him.
“Since you people are absolutely useless, there’s no need for me to lend you my sister.”
Lin Sen suppressed the worry in his heart and his tone gradually turned cold.
“Please go back.”
When Yagyu Ichiken heard this, he seemed to be stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately revealed a very nasty smile.
