I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 237 Listening to the Voice of All Things (13)

"Alright, let's talk about your current situation!"

With her gaze returning to Li Boyang, Xi Luo rarely brought up a serious topic.

"You can hear more and more sounds now..."

"This is your process of advancing from a primordial deity to a god."

"However, most gods are only able to hear the voices of their followers and priests after they have become gods."

After a slight pause, Xi Luo continued, seemingly gloating.

“Only you had a considerable number of believers before you became a god, including some innate saints who were qualified to become priests.”

"This means that you are now practically a god..."

"Next, just find a mountain peak or a water vein to settle down, and I believe you will soon be able to smoothly advance to become a god."

"This is an opportunity that countless innate saints and gods would rather die than obtain, so what is there to worry about?"

Li Boyang naturally sensed the gloating in Xi Luo's words, and could only roll his eyes helplessly.

"I think Feilai Peak is quite nice. Why don't you let me be your mountain god?"

The two bantered skillfully, leaving Lu Huaijin, who was standing nearby, looking completely bewildered.

On the contrary, Li Jingshu was already used to this and just watched it all with a smile.

In Lu Huaijin's eyes, Xi Luo was the ruler of Feilai Peak and even the entire Yunmengze.

Li Boyang is the son of the mountain god and a born sage.

But in Li Jingshu's eyes, the two had a relationship that was closer than family.

They've not only argued, but they've also quarreled and even fought before, so Li Jingshu is used to it.

Although in most cases, it was Xiluo who was throwing a tantrum.

This was the most memorable time for Li Jingshu.

This occurred after the reconstruction of Feilai Peak, before the floods swept across hundreds of mountains.

Neither Li Boyang nor Xi Luo mentioned what exactly happened during that time, so Li Jingshu was not very clear about it either.

The only thing she knew was that Xi Luo was really angry during that time, and even forbade Li Boyang from setting foot on Feilai Peak again.

It wasn't until Li Boyang took the initiative to capture the ghosts and spirits that had already escaped from Feilai Peak.

The relationship between the two sides gradually eased, which led to the creation of Yunmengze.

"Ha, if you really want to be a god..."

"Isn't Yunmeng Marsh just missing a ready-made god?"

She jumped directly onto the altar, found a suitable spot to lie down again, and then said lazily.

"Today, Yunmeng Marsh is the convergence point of the water veins of hundreds of regions, and the central hub connecting the dragon veins of hundreds of regions..."

“It’s quite simple to raise a powerful god.”

"What's more, you yourself have figured out the secret to 'becoming a god'."

Upon hearing Xi Luo's words, Li Boyang immediately thought of the culprit that had caused him so much trouble.

"It's all Chiyu's fault. I only asked her to deliver the Hetu Luoshu to the people suffering along the way."

"Who would have thought that those human-faced fish would all be so honest and simple-minded..."

"Not only did they expose the Red Carp, but they also emphasized the existence of the 'Fate Master'."

"As a result, now almost every village and state with the Hetu Luoshu has erected statues of me and Chiyu."

Upon hearing this, Xi Luo immediately burst out laughing, and didn't forget to add insult to injury.

"Yes, and it's a statue erected in the image of a 'human-faced fish'."

"I recently took some time to visit the Kingdom of Baling..."

"That tall, three-eyed, red-faced fish did indeed look exceptionally majestic."

The statue of Li Boyang was sculpted as a human-faced fish because the Hetu and Luoshu were delivered by a human-faced fish.

In this world where the innate sacred truly exists.

Those humans who benefited from his grace naturally regarded "Siming" as a deity of the human-faced fish. This is in conjunction with the various characteristics of "Siming" inadvertently revealed by the human-faced fish.

A red, human-faced fish with three eyes naturally became the image of Li Boyang in people's minds.

"Stop talking, the image of Baling Kingdom is actually quite good..."

"At the very least, they really did see the human-faced fish, but they just modified its appearance slightly."

Covering half his face in pain, Li Boyang sighed deeply.

"But those humans who have never seen the human-faced fish and have only obtained a copy of the Hetu Luoshu have a very different understanding of 'Siming'."

"The better ones will be sculpted in a human form, at most a half-human, half-fish shape..."

"But those ignorant guys who love to daydream, you simply can't believe how outrageous their creativity can be."

Without Xi Luo and the others even needing to ask, Li Boyang couldn't hold back any longer and started complaining.

"Today I heard from a villager that they want to create an image of my deity based on the Hetu and Luoshu diagrams..."

"If it were just that, it would be fine, but they like to add all sorts of features that they hear and imagine."

"And the result was a book with three eyes, sharp teeth, and a completely crimson body?"

When he mentioned the word "book", Li Boyang hesitated for a moment.

Because "book" was just what the villagers called it, he didn't acknowledge that the square, indescribable object was a "book".

However, these statues have all sorts of strange shapes.

But the voices that reached Li Boyang's ears constantly reminded him that those strange statues were indeed himself.

Unlike the "telepathy" that Li Boyang developed himself.

These voices from all living beings were forced into Li Boyang's ears, regardless of his wishes.

According to Xi Luo, this is the necessary path to becoming a god.

The only difference is that most gods do not have so many steadfast believers.

Some wild and uncivilized gods have no followers at all, let alone listen to their voices.

—Listen to the voice of all things.

This is what most gods call this ability.

But only the gods who have accomplished great deeds can truly hear the voices of all things.

"It's strange, but ordinary gods can easily block out those sounds."

"For example, I basically only listen to what I want to hear, and I don't listen to what I don't want to hear."

Just then, Xi Luo licked her paws and continued speaking.

"Being able to hear the voices of believers is only one of the abilities of a deity, but it is not a necessary condition for becoming a god."

"But something is clearly wrong with your current situation. Perhaps it's related to the fact that you haven't become a god yet?"

"Why don't you try becoming a god first, and see if you can block out those voices after you become a god?"

Hearing Xi Luo speak so casually, anyone who didn't know better would think that becoming a god was such a simple thing.

Fortunately, Li Boyang was already used to Xi Luo's nonsense, and instead showed a thoughtful expression.

"Wait...you don't actually want to become a god, do you?"

Noticing the expression on Li Boyang's face, Xi Luo, who had been teasing him, widened her eyes.

"Do you intend to abandon your path of heaven and man?"

Li Boyang shrugged slightly and smiled noncommittally.

"That's not necessarily true. Perhaps these two paths don't conflict at all?"

As he said this, Li Boyang gazed into the distance, looking beyond the mountains of Baidi.

"Perhaps someone can give me a possible answer..."
