Chapter 802: This, is [Birth]
This, is 【Birth】
Before long, those eyes reappeared above the clown's head.
The returning Him didn't speak either, just watching Cheng Shi while holding back laughter, motionless, making Cheng Shi's scalp tingle.
【Birth】's 【Divine Pillar】, seeing that the other party was thick-skinned and refused to leave, stopped paying attention to this annoying thing, looked at Cheng Shi again, and asked:
"Do—you—still—have—matters—"
Cheng Shi just wanted to open his mouth, but suddenly thought of something. With quick eyes and fast hands, he pinched his mouth shut. He was terrified that at this time, the Lips of Foolish Play would give him another backstab, making him lose face in front of two gods.
Although he didn't have much face left anyway.
However, he didn't speak, but his patron spoke for him.
"I say, Boss, the clown said it very clearly; he wants to know who 【Origin】 is. How can you pretend not to hear?"
"To tell the truth, I am also very curious. After all, you are the first seed planted by 【*Him】 personally, and the first True God named by 【*Him】 personally. You know much more than us younger brothers and sisters who have only heard the sound but never seen the face. So, enlighten me too, how about it?"
!!!
Just hearing these words from the God of Fun, Cheng Shi felt that today's embarrassment was worth it.
But just this bit of news from the fingernail gap definitely couldn't satisfy the clown's curiosity, so he looked up suddenly at the 【Divine Pillar】, putting on an extremely sincere expression of thirst for knowledge. This time, the clown's expression had no acting component; it was 100% longing and expectation.
【Birth】... was silent for a moment, and then the 【Divine Pillar】's movements gradually slowed down.
"You—since—you—do—not—like—
Why—do—you—want—to—know—"
"Hee~
That's a way of putting it. What if I repent after you say it, wouldn't I 'like' it then?"
"......"
【Birth】 was silent again. This silence lasted even longer, so long that when Cheng Shi felt the scene was about to fall into a stalemate, He moved.
He saw that the incomparably huge 【Divine Pillar】 suddenly disintegrated, exploding above Cheng Shi's head into countless life templates, arranged row upon row in the void.
Cheng Shi's eyes widened suddenly. This was the first time he knew that this 【Divine Pillar】 could actually be disassembled!
But this wasn't over. He saw those neatly arranged life templates suddenly start to rotate rapidly. In the blink of an eye, they were flying and turning like a wheel in the void, just like a revolving lantern.
At the same time, the languages of ten thousand races and billions of lives sang in this wheel of life like whispers, and then gathered into a song in the void, mixing with the extremely rich aura of 【Life】 and starting to disperse in all directions.
Cheng Shi only heard one syllable in the melody and smelled a wisp of air in the tide, and his entire consciousness became dazed. He only felt that his field of vision was rising infinitely, until it transcended the God of Fun, stripped away the void, pierced through nihility, and then arrived at......
A pitch-black wasteland.
He opened his eyes and saw a gas cloud that looked exactly like a seed floating in this endless darkness. Not long after, that "seed" started to sprout, grow, diffuse, and spread. It was just that none of the various forms above were a normal seed sprouting branches and buds, but countless strange life populations were using their lives to "measure" this space-time, one after another, at a geometric growth rate.
These life forms that sprouted from the "seed" were one stranger than the next, but they all had one common characteristic: almost every individual had countless "tentacles," because only in this way could they recognize this world faster and explore the unknown outside more effectively.
Not only that, with the flow of "time," these populations started to gradually appear with civilization—no, it couldn't be called civilization, because they didn't seem to have produced culture, but only produced... twisted faith.
They started to worship certain totems, symbols, and icons, but because the objects of worship were different among countless ethnic groups, it was hard to say they had absolutely identical faith.
But what was certain was that no matter which ethnic group, what they worshipped were spiritual sustenance objects that allowed them to reproduce rapidly.
And these totems, symbols, and icons—the clown hadn't seen most of them, but the few he had seen had all appeared in that 【Divine Pillar】 of 【Birth】 just now!
Seeing this, Cheng Shi's heart shook, and he suddenly realized.
The God of Fun had once said that 【Path】 was related to the development of life and civilization, so this scene right now was highly likely the unknown history at the beginning of 【Life】, the moment when 【Birth】's "people" were just born.
He seemed to be using this method to trace back to that time that was hard for mortals to look back on!
So, this was the reason He was hailed as the prelude to 【Life】!?
He represented the beginning of the universe?
Cheng Shi was stunned. He held his breath, fearing he would miss any detail, but everything in front of him was like pressing the fast-forward button, faster and faster, more and more blurred, until a few breaths later, these life populations densely covered the entire space.
It looked like 【Prosperity】 was coming.
But just at this time, the picture darkened, and Cheng Shi's vision returned to silence.
"?"
Why was it gone?
Cheng Shi's brows furrowed. He didn't dare to ask casually. He narrowed his eyes, exhausting his vision to confirm whether the darkness in front of him was not true darkness, but that he hadn't seen the development of the population clearly.
But just at this time, just as he was looking around, a voice he had never heard before sounded in his mind.
That voice was both close and distant. Every syllable seemed to be trembling with his soul, and every turn sounded like his consciousness, which was about to collapse, was shifting. His vision also started to become colorful along with this voice, like stars rising together, and also like the universe perishing. If the sound rose, it was brilliant; if the sound died, it was dim......
For a time, Cheng Shi wasn't sure if he had heard the sound, or if he had produced synesthesia because he saw the changes in the universe.
But soon, he determined that it wasn't synesthesia, but sound, because he clearly heard a sentence:
"This, is 【Birth】, the prelude to life, the... origin of all things."
At this moment, thunder exploded in Cheng Shi's brain, and ten thousand thoughts roared.
His brain was blank, and it didn't calm down for a long time.
Soon he was pulled out by a great force and returned to the void. And when he stood firm in the void again, looking at the pair of equally solemn eyes in front of him, Cheng Shi was covered in cold sweat from head to toe, his heart beating like a drum.
【Origin】!!!
The source of that voice just now was absolutely 【Origin】!
【Birth】 seemed to have skipped the last two stages of the 【Life】 process and directly displayed the curtain falling on the first era in front of Cheng Shi.
But 【*He】......
Actually used just such a sentence to name a True God?
So casual, so childish, and could "point" the gathering of a faith into a god? Could that god still be called a god, or rather, only 【*He】 was the true god!?
Just as Cheng Shi was terrified, the pair of eyes above his head emitted a light laugh.
"So that's how it is. It turns out you haven't seen 【*Him】 either, Boss."
"Seen—or—not—seen—
What—difference—does—it—make—"
"That difference is huge. If even you haven't seen Him......
Hee~"
The God of Fun's eye corners tilted higher and higher, and his tone became more and more playful.
"Who knows if 【*He】 truly......
exists?" ===== CHAPTER 803 =====
