Chapter 275: Birth of the New Moon God

"The moon... has risen."

Just as Rhodes rushed back to the altar.

In the endless void, pairs of eyes slowly opened and looked towards the direction of the dream forest.

Each of them exudes a vast and boundless aura, just like the heaven and earth.

"Unfortunately, it's too late."

"If it was the Moon Goddess back then, maybe we still have a chance, but now..."

A sigh came from afar, echoing in the void.

After the incident three hundred years ago, the Moon God gave the major divine kingdoms a chance to catch their breath, allowing them to resist that force and leave the last spark.

But now.

Three hundred years have passed.

Even if the Moon Goddess fully recovered, nothing could be changed and she could only stay in this plane.

"Does the glimmer of hope that Moon Goddess mentioned really exist?"

Another voice echoed in the void.

The major divine kingdoms have been guarding outside for three hundred years and have experienced countless wars.

Under "their" relentless pressure, the plane barriers that were originally established are gradually shrinking. If it weren't for the support of the Sun God, the remaining planes would probably have collapsed completely.

"Just wait, he should be coming from the back soon, although it is a little late."

"I don't know if I can successfully condense the Godhood."

"maybe……"

As soon as the words fell, the void fell into silence again.

Although they usually don't pay much attention to things happening in the rear, they have received a lot of news about the Dream Forest and vaguely guessed the Moon Goddess's plan.

But I don't hold out much hope for this, after all, the time is really too short.

To be able to condense the status of a god in such a short period of time is almost a fantasy. Who among them didn't go through tens of thousands of years of enlightenment to reach their current position?

All I can say is there is hope, but not much.

……

the other side.

In the dream forest.

After returning to the altar, Rhodes quickly summoned Augla and the others and told them the truth he learned after his advancement and his next plans.

When they learned that the Moon God was actually the God of Death and what happened three hundred years ago, the entire altar was in an uproar.

"Lord Rhodes, are you telling the truth?!"

"The Moon God is the God of Death?"

"How can this be!"

“So many things happened back then…”

"No wonder Lord Moon God hasn't shown up yet. I didn't expect it to be like this!"

After hearing the truth, Augla and the others were all in deep shock, and couldn't even digest it completely for a while.

When the incident happened in the Dream Forest, they had various speculations, but they never thought that the result would be like this, and so many things would happen.

Especially when they learned that the Moon Goddess was sleeping in the Abyss of Death and that the Black Moon was the passage leading there, Augla and Alpha could not help but raise their heads and look towards the location of the Black Moon.

original.

The Moon Goddess had always been so close to them.

No wonder the druids were so sure that the black moon contained the breath of the Moon Goddess.

Now the truth is finally revealed!
"I plan to go into the passage and take a look. Remember to protect the safety of the forest."

When they gradually came back to their senses, Rhodes spoke.

"Isn't this too dangerous? How about we go with you?" Augla said quickly.

"Need not."

Rhodes shook his head: "I can sense that not everyone can enter that place, and if you come with us, there will be no one to look after the woods."

"But……"

Alpha wanted to persuade him again, but Rod interrupted him: "No need to say more, I can go by myself."

Seeing that he was so determined, they didn't know what to say anymore and could only tell him to be careful.

finally.

After explaining everything.

Rhodes' figure flashed and appeared high in the sky.

This is an ability he gained after being promoted to the seventh level and inheriting the forest. He can go anywhere he wants as long as it is within the range of the dream forest.

however.

When he approached the entrance, he found that Xiaobai had appeared in front of him at some point and actually possessed the ability to cross space.

"Are you going over there too?"

Rhodes stopped and looked helpless.

"Shasha~"

Xiaobai raised his two front legs and pointed at the black entrance. His meaning was obvious.

Considering that it was the descendant of Dream Weaver and the memory of the last quarrel between Dream Weaver and Moon Goddess, Rhodes finally nodded.

"Okay, then you come along."

"rustle!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaobai immediately jumped happily onto his branch. It was unknown whether he had inherited the Weaver's memory or simply wanted to follow.

soon.

A tree and a spider came to the outside of the entrance and no longer felt the strong repulsion as before.

"It's time to go!"

Rhodes took a deep breath, put on layers of shields on himself, and then dived into the mouth.

In an instant, the surroundings became pitch black, and a powerful suction force pulled them forward.

And under his gaze, the Dream Forest slowly changed from a vast world into a huge bubble.

Then more and more bubbles appeared, each of which was connected to a black silk thread, converging in the same direction like swimming tentacles.

Rhodes even saw the orc dimension he had visited before.

"So the Death Storm and the Wind of Resurrection were caused by the Moon God?"

At this moment, Rhodes finally understood why those planes had been corroded by death but still had a glimmer of life.

It's like a dream forest.

Even though it has become like that, there are still many sparks left.

Endless life.

Perhaps this is the true meaning of life.

As if in response to his guess, a strong wind suddenly blew in the dark passage.

The horrifying breath of death swept over him, like a sharp blade, constantly cutting through the shield on his body.

Most of the original one hundred-layer shield was shattered in an instant, forcing him to mobilize his magic power to continue replenishing the shield on his body.

Xiaobai huddled in the branches, his bright eyes fixed straight ahead, as if something was calling him.

Just like this, I kept moving forward while resisting the death energy.

After an unknown amount of time, when Rhodes felt that his magic power was almost exhausted, the death storm finally passed.

Instead, a strong vitality filled the entire passage in a blink of an eye, making people feel like spring breeze, and their magic power began to recover rapidly.

The changes back and forth are like breathing.

This made Rhodes look strange. These black channels might be the ventilator tubes inserted into the Moon Goddess to prolong his life while he was sleeping.

One breath can cause turmoil in all the planes. The Moon Goddess must have a body tens of millions of feet tall and can crush a plane with ease.

"rustle!"

Just as I was thinking about it, Xiaobai's voice suddenly rang out.

A dazzling white light gradually appeared in front of the originally dark passage.

Swish!
There was a flash of light. The darkness before their eyes finally dissipated, and in its place was a lush and green... courtyard?
That's right!

What appeared before Rhodes was not the abyss of death filled with undead, but a courtyard full of plants!

Why is this different from what he imagined?
Rhodes walked down to earth in the courtyard.

The surrounding plants and flowers are not of many varieties, but they are well cared for, and it can be seen that a lot of care is taken.

Just when he was wondering, a voice suddenly sounded.

"You came."

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure slowly stood up from behind the flower bed in the distance, holding a small shovel in his hand, as if he was planting something.

But what Rhodes cared more about was the man's appearance.

"You are...the Moon God?!"

Rhodes was startled and looked at the face that was exactly the same as his previous life, and instantly recognized the other person's identity.

Didn’t they say that the Moon Goddess fell into a deep sleep?
How come this doesn't look like the eyes are sealed at all?
And where is this place?
Rhodes looked around in confusion.

He had thought that he might encounter danger or obstacles, but he did not expect to meet the other party in such a peaceful way.

"Don't be confused, this is my spiritual world."

As if she knew what Rhodes was thinking, the Moon Goddess smiled and squatted down to take care of the plants in the flowerbed.

Rhodes hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and slowly approached the flower bed.

However, the other party's next sentence made him terrified.

"In the words of your world, this should be considered a high-dimensional space."

The Moon Goddess seemed to be narrating something insignificant and continued to work hard.

"you know?"

Rhodes finally couldn't suppress the many doubts in his heart and asked.

And the little white on his head also jumped to the ground, kicked its legs wildly to run to the side of the Moon Goddess, and rubbed his body affectionately.

"You are Xiao Meng's descendant, right?"

The Moon Goddess reached out and touched Xiaobai's head, with sadness and nostalgia in her eyes, as well as a strong sense of guilt.

"I'm sorry, I broke my promise and I couldn't go back in the end. Xiao Meng must hate me, right?"

He seemed to be talking to Xiaobai, but also seemed to be talking to Rhodes.

"No, she was waiting for you until the end."

Rhodes was silent for a moment, and finally spoke slowly.

He seemed to know why Xiaobai followed him.

Perhaps that strong obsession has already penetrated deeply into the Dream Weaver's heritage.

"Still waiting... She's still as stupid as before."

An imperceptible sigh came from the Moon Goddess's mouth.

As if he was reminiscing or expressing his feelings, he spoke slowly while tending the flower garden:
"Xiao Meng and I met in the Spider Demon Plane. At that time, she was just a little spider that had just transformed."

"We traveled together, through various planes, and met all kinds of life forms and races."

"There is a plane that impressed me the most. There is no magic or powerful force there. There is only something called "technology."

"At first I thought that the level of that plane was too low and couldn't breed power, but later I found out that I was wrong."

"It's not that that plane cannot breed power, but because... it is the origin of all power. It contains the rules of thousands of planes and is also the place where the World Tree was born."

"Unfortunately, I discovered it too late. By the time I wanted to comprehend the rules, the world had already decayed. In the end, I had to separate the two forces and place them in that plane to nurture, hoping to find a way to nurture the World Tree."

"..."

Listening to the Moon Goddess's rambling words, Rhodes fell into a long silence.

Although I had guessed it in my mind, when I heard the other party's last sentence, my heart was still stirred.

I am the Moon Goddess.

What an incredible yet unsurprising truth.

He had always regarded himself as the acting Moon Goddess, and now it became true in the blink of an eye. His mood was extremely complicated.

but.

He quickly came to his senses.

Asked the question that I had always wanted to ask.

“What is the source of the pollution?”

As if she had known that he would ask this question, the Moon Goddess slowly stood up and brushed the dust off her body.

"You'll know just by looking at it."

After saying that, he waved his hand and the surrounding courtyard disappeared instantly.

Instead, there is a sky full of stars, shining like fireflies in the dark night.

And these fireflies were moving away from them at an extremely fast speed, as if their consciousness was constantly rising in this plane.

finally.

They cross the barriers of the planes.

The entire universe turned into a rapidly shrinking sphere, and similar spheres began to appear around it.

There were more and more spheres, and as their sight moved further away, they turned into white spots of light. The spots of light continued to converge, forming lines extending outward.

It looks like the texture of leaves.

wrong!

This is the leaf!
The light spots transformed from countless planes actually gathered into a translucent leaf.

Then the leaves continued to move farther away, and a giant tree standing in the void came into view, and its branches and leaves spread out like white fibers.

This……

Isn't it the World Tree that he planted in the Moon Well? !

Rod Muren woke up in shock and finally realized that the light spots on the little transparent body were not simple fluorescent lights, but planes!

a tree.

It is a world.

Is this the origin of the World Tree?

Shocked, Rhodes looked at the World Tree in front of him again, only to find that the light spot under the World Tree began to dim rapidly.

Like a plague, it spread from the roots to the trunk, and then from the trunk to the branches. Finally, even the light spots on the leaves dimmed, leaving only an area in the center emitting a faint white light.

Rhodes was stunned, then suddenly reacted.

"Is that where we are now?"

"Correct."

The Moon Goddess nodded leisurely: "The World Tree had already begun to decay a long time ago, which is why I want to plant a new World Tree."

After receiving a positive answer, Rhodes took a deep breath. Among so many planes, there was only such a small piece that was not polluted.

The root of everything is actually the World Tree itself!

This is more serious than he thought!
I just don't know if the little transparent people he cultivated can change this situation.

Just as he was about to ask, he discovered that the Moon Goddess's spiritual consciousness began to dissipate rapidly.

"I don't have much time left. Now I pass the throne to you, which can be regarded as fulfilling my promise to the previous Moon God. Come on, little tree spirit."

"what?"

Rhodes was stunned and his expression became strange.

As if knowing what he was thinking, the Moon Goddess suddenly raised her eyebrows.

"You don't think I'm the first Moon God, do you? If that old guy hadn't died and insisted on passing the throne to me, I wouldn't want to be the Moon God. I have so many things to deal with every day. Now I'm finally free. There is life and there is death. You should be more open-minded. And... the descendants of those guys are left to you to take care of."

Done.

The Moon Goddess's consciousness completely dissipated.

It turned into a stream of energy and was injected into Rhodes' body.

boom!
A terrifying aura erupted in the void.

Above the sky of countless dimensions, a bright moon slowly rises, and its bright moonlight shines on the earth, symbolizing the birth of a new moon god.
