Chapter 36 The Priestess

Jing Jiu did not rush over and observed it carefully for a while.

The protective cover is above the atmospheric troposphere, so it cannot cover the rain and naturally cannot block the wind.

He stretched out his finger and felt the wind speed, and quickly calculated that with the wind and rain erosion here, the surface of the building should be more severely damaged.

The traces of war in this grassland are so obvious, which shows that when the Dark Sea invaded that year, it was the most intense main battlefield. Why did that building still remain?

The lines on those stone pillars are not rune lines, nor are there formation fluctuations.

He overturned his former vision, and it seemed that the priestess' inheritance had nothing to do with the Ascension.

The dunes gradually flowed, flooding his insteps, and then continued upwards, eventually swallowing his body.

After a moment, the sand stopped rolling, as if nothing had happened.

A faint light appeared in the depths of this severely desertified grassland.

The light gave people an extremely sharp feeling, and nothing could stop it from moving forward.

With a buzzing sound, the light disappeared.

...

...

The magnificent building is the main sacrificial hall of the Star Gate Planet. It is indeed very similar to the fire towers in various cities, but the regulations are hundreds of times larger.

Perhaps because the priestess lives here, the building does not have much modern civilization. Of course, it does not mean that it is very primitive. It’s just that those high-tech devices are hidden in huge stones, such as those military-level gravitational field generating devices, from the outside, are just several stone sculptures.

On the east side of the sacrificial hall are seven meditation rooms, and there is also a Zen garden surrounded by four walls. It is very small in area, with an ancient well inside, and several clusters of green bamboos planted in the corner, facing the sky light falling from the sky, which is indescribable.

With a buzzing sound, the well water moved slightly, and a figure flew out, landing among the green bamboos, and the bamboo branches suddenly became more energetic.

Looking at the clusters of green bamboos, thinking about the bamboos in the small mountain village, the bamboos at the entrance of the Tianguang Peak Bairujing Cave, the bamboos that were moved to Sanqian Hospital by the child...

Jing Jiu also became more energetic.

With sword energy protecting his body, even though he had traveled two hundred kilometers underground, the blue sweatshirt on his body was not damaged, but the strap hanging from the black backpack was worn out. He reached out and kneaded the broken strap into a wisp of blue smoke, walked to the well and looked down, looked at the water that was gradually quieting down for a while, turned around and left.

...

...

The main hall of the sacrificial hall is unimaginable. The dome is about 300 meters high. The wall painted with ancient civilizations and murals seems to be invisible.

After all, there is an end, even the universe.

At the end of the hall is a gray curtain, which hangs from the dome to the ground. I don’t know what material it is made of. The surface is extremely smooth, without a trace of wrinkle.

If this is the concreteness of the sky, no one can object.

On the other side of the gray curtain is a quiet and clear stone chamber, with fire candles lit on both sides of the stone steps, and the sky light is shining from nowhere.

There is a futon on the bluestone floor, and the edges are severely worn.

A black-haired woman sat on a futon, wearing a white sacred suit, and a golden lace tied around her waist that represents a noble identity.

The golden strap is as smooth as a curtain, without any wrinkles.

The black hair scattered like a waterfall, but it was so regular, extremely neat, as if each hair had its own position and would never be surpassed.

The woman's expression was gentle, her eyebrows were gentle, and her whole body exuded a feeling of being indifferent to the world and being silent.

She is the most noble and highest-ranking priestess on this planet.

The priestess was of unknown age, and for some reason, there were traces of excessive thoughts between his eyebrows and eyes.

A gray curtain like the sky is in front of it, and this room seems to have no dome, which can lead directly to the sea of ​​stars in the universe.

She sat here quietly, as if she had been sitting for countless years.

There was no incense burning in the room, and the burning flames did not have any odor.

There is no gorgeous decoration here, but a small bowl made of celadon is placed in front of her.

The celadon bowl was filled with clear water, and three pink petals floated on the water surface, which were still motionless, as if they were fake.

A breeze came from somewhere.

The wind was extremely faint, unable to move her hair, her clothes, and could not even sense it.

The petals on the water surface of the celadon bowl slowly fluttered.

The priestess looked up at the gray curtain ahead, and there was a faint feeling of excitement in his quiet vision, as if he wanted to see the truth of history from this sky.

There was no truth on the other side of the gray curtain, but a figure appeared.

“Do you believe in the existence of God?”

The priestess asked softly as he looked at the figure on the curtain.

"No." said the man.

The priestess thought about the conversation between the other party and the bishop in the city of Samuji, and smiled and said, "Then why did you come here today?"

"I want to ask you something."

The person outside the sky curtain was naturally Jing Jiu, and his voice had no emotional fluctuations.

The priestess knew that he would not come in, so he did not directly answer his question, saying, "The ancient civilization and the sea of ​​dark things died together, but arranged their own resurrection and prepared countless means. In this way, he could know everything and count the existence of everything. Isn't it a god?"

Jing Jiu said: "That person does exist?"

The priestess said: "God does not need to prove his existence, but he has indeed left his footprints in the world. From the Lord Star to every colonial star we have recovered, including the one you stand, there are His footprints."

Jing Jiu thought of the mecha buried in the soil in the museum warehouse and said, "That mecha is very backward."

The priestess was not surprised that he could find the footprints left by the gods, and said with a smile: "Look, this is what is called connection."

Jing Jiu said: "How did you know me?"

He was very sure that there was no outlier in the laboratory's information. Even if the Ascensioner noticed himself through "The Great Way to the Sky" and Uzumaki Company, he should not let the priestess come to that conclusion that he is a new god.

The priestess whispered: "We have been looking for or waiting for you in the world for many years, so it is natural that we will notice some traces more easily."

As for the military's most secret information... it is not difficult for the priestesses at the top of the faith chain of the Galaxy Alliance.

"When did you start to notice me?" Jing Jiu asked.

The priestess said, "From the moment you came to the lab."

Jing Jiu thought it was really early and asked, "How did you find me after I left?"

The priestess smiled and said, "A rumor suddenly appeared in a certain underground neighborhood... It was said that a game hall was haunted. You know, we are the best at pretending to be a ghost, so we are naturally very careful about these things..."

Jing Jiu did not continue the topic and asked: "What is the priestess?"

The priestess said softly: "We are responsible for inheriting ancient civilizations. At first, humans did not believe what we said, and even persecuted and killed us like witches. Until the civilization gradually revived, many relics of ancient civilizations were discovered on each planet through archaeology, and the existence of gods was accepted."

Jing Jiu said: "How to pass on the inheritance?"

The priestess said, "No words are left, and every generation of priests passes through word and mouth, and then reads it in his mind every day, so as not to forget any words."

This sounds simple, but it is actually very difficult.

Human memory will decline, and what is even more troublesome is that as time goes by, many long-lasting memories will naturally disappear.

Even after he turned his sword and reborn, he forgot many scenes in the palace back then, let alone these ordinary female humans.

If these priestesses want to remember the knowledge passed down to themselves by their predecessors, they must repeat the memory every day. Such hardship is unimaginable.

Jing Jiu understood why the priest election valued so much literature and history knowledge, and probably understood the meaning of the word "jing".

"All the legacy of ancient civilizations is in your memory?"

"We are just ordinary humans, but we can endure loneliness more than others. We are not omniscient and omnipotent gods. How can we remember all the details in such a vast civilization?"

The priestess patiently explained: "At the beginning, there were 3,000 priestesses, and now there are more than 700 left. Each priestess inherited only needs to remember their part."

Jing Jiu said: "What are you responsible for remembering?"

The priestess whispered: "Except for the history and general knowledge that all priestesses must remember, the content I am responsible for is the most useless...it is the artistic aspect."

Jing Jiu thought of the famous art gallery in Mōji City and agreed to her self-worthy words, which was really useless.

As for that period of history, it must be a dark era when ancient civilization and the sea of ​​dark objects died together. What about general knowledge?

Jing Jiu asked, "What does the new god mean?"

This is what he is going to do today when he comes here.

He read the bishop's consciousness and knew that the priestess was looking for a new god. Why is the question?

There is no need to think about this kind of thing. Since you are about to come to the surface once, then come to her to ask him.

As for the priestess' transcendent status and identity on this planet, it is not his consideration.

This is a secret that only the priestesses and their most trusted confidants knew. At this time, he told them in one word. The priestess was not surprised, but was even more respectful and bowed to the figure outside the curtain.

The gods know everything and can do everything.

"The last will left by the gods before leaving is to ask humans to wait for the new gods to appear."

She lay on the ground and said, "I have been waiting for many years until you show up."

Jing Jiu said, "Why me?"

The priestess said, "Because you can do everything, and you come from another world."
