Chapter 708: Pray to the Divinity
There were already a hundred fifty marks on the wall now. It had already been five entire months. Most of the trees had died from the intense sunlight.
There were only two stone pots of water left in the cavern. Ning Shu wiped her face. She was starting to feel despair.
In the face of nature, humans were truly insignificant and weak.
What exactly was going on with this world?
Zhi said to Ning Shu, “Cao, can you pray to the Divinity? Has the Divinity abandoned us?”
Ning Shu: …
How was she supposed to pray?
The fudge would she pray about? She didn’t even know who that Divinity was.
However, since Zhi was staring at her hopefully, she grabbed the myriad world stone and started mumbling random nonsense. Li Wen lifted his brows as he watched Ning Shu.
He clearly didn’t really believe in the existence of a Divinity.
Ning Shu didn’t know if it was her imagination, but the myriad world stone felt a little hot. It started growing increasingly hot until it flew out of her palm towards the sky.
Following that, a large shadowy hand appeared in the sky and took the stone.
The f*ck!? Ning Shu almost wet her pants. She swore with all sincerity that she was just touching it a little. She hadn’t been thinking about trying to steal the myriad world stone at all!
The shadowy hand paused in the sky, then crushed two suns with quick pinches before vanishing.
Ning Shu: …
“W-what was that?” Li Wen’s voice was trembling. Li Wen, who was capable of not blinking an eye at the collapse of a mountain, was currently utterly dumbfounded.
Ning Shu swallowed hard. F*ck! Her heart was physically trembling.
“That’s our Divinity,” said Ning Shu as she puffed up her chest.
“Woohoo! Wooo!” All the beastmen started cheering happily.
With two less suns, the world became significantly more dim and the light wasn’t as eye-piercing anymore.
Ning Shu clenched her chest. It felt like she was about to have a heart attack.
Li Wen’s pupils were trembling slightly. It was clear that he was astonished by the enormous power that large shadowy hand possessed.
An ant had suddenly discovered that there was a stronger existence in this world. Li Wen, with his personality, would definitely pursue this kind of power.
He originally thought that he had already been lucky to obtain the little thing he was currently carrying. He never imagined that he would one day witness a power like this.
Li Wen was an emperor and had never believed in the supernatural, but he had witnessed this enormous power with his own eyes just now.
Due to there being two less suns, the weather instantly cooled down significantly. The disparity between the scorching heat and the normal light of one sun even made things feel a little cold.
It was easy for clouds to condense when it got hot and cold so suddenly, so after two days, it finally rained. It had been nearly half a year; it was finally raining!
All the beastmen jumped and cried out happily in the rain as they opened their mouths wide to catch the rainwater. The female beastmen carried out the stone pots to collect the rainwater.
Ning Shu tilted her head back to allow the large droplets of rain to hit her face. It hurt a little and also tickled a little, but her heart was filled with indescribable joy.
At the same time, she was also very shaken. That existence was so powerful it controlled the fate of an entire world. When would she become strong enough to be able to control her own fate so that her life wasn’t in the hands of someone else anymore?
After the rain, the grass started growing again and some of the withered trees started sending up new sprouts. The world was filled with the scent of new life.
Regardless of who that Divinity was, Ning Shu was very grateful to him. Although this might’ve just been a casual gesture to him, it had saved a lot of people and allowed her not to fail her task.
Amitabha Buddha. Good people would have a good peaceful life. There would come a day where she’d also become a powerful existence, but before that, she would work hard to live.
Ning Shu saw that Li Wen remained silent without speaking. His eyes were very bright. They were ignited with scorching light.
The current Li Wen was different from the past Li Wen. If it was said that in the past, Li Wen defined himself through his desire to be a wise emperor, the current Li Wen no longer gave off this feeling.
He seemed to have gained a new goal so his entire way of thinking seemed to have been elevated.
“Your Divinity seems very strong?” Li Wen suddenly spoke. “Does someone like this really exist in the world?”
Ning Shu nodded. “The Divinity is omnipotent. It was the Divinity that created this world, so it’s natural that his power is unfathomable.”
After the gray furball woke up from eating the spirit essence crystal, it first jumped onto Ning Shu’s shoulder and squeaked at her a couple times before jumping right back into Li Wen’s arms.
Ning Shu kind of wanted to roll her eyes. She had clearly been the one that fed this guy something this good, but it was still so indifferent towards her.
This little thing only cared about Li Wen.
