Moon.
A forbidden zone that connects only Earth and Jupiter, where Heavenly People approach and die.
Zhou Yi looked at the other person: "What exactly is the Moon?"
The Night God slowly opened her eyes, cold silver light in her pupils.
"I don't know."
She looked at the moon's surface through the crystal plane: "Although the Moon is my source and carrier, I actually don't know much about it."
"I'll take you to a place, then you'll probably understand."
"Shall we go?"
Zhou Yi nodded.
"Then follow me."
The Night God stepped out of Hei Fu's Light Core and strolled outside.
A classical beauty with high coiffed hair, her robes fluttered as she walked on the pale surface of the Moon, making Zhou Yi think of the myth of Chang'e come to life.
A thought sprang up in his mind: could some of those ancient legends that have been passed down orally for generations actually be true?
Xiao Fu's voice rang in his head.
"Da Zhou, the Night God is peculiar, and the Moon is not normal either."
"Logically speaking, the existence of Moon Beasts should spread and expand her power, concept life wouldn't care about the changes in the material side… But she obviously shows a dislike for the Moon Beasts and wants to eradicate this group."
The Reverse Flow analyzed: "Besides that, do you feel that this world lacks the presence of the Great Holy Spirit?"
Zhou Yi looked around.
Indeed.
There was none of that black-and-white mosaic-like consciousness coordinate.
He verified with Hei Fu.
Hei Fu also responded: "Indeed not, this world is empty."
Xiao Fu continued to speak: "A world without a Great Holy Spirit has only two situations."
"Either the life consciousness here is too few to construct an embryonic form of a Great Holy Spirit."
"The minimum group unit number is 150, as long as this number is reached, a collective consciousness can form. Fire Seed Life to Fire Seed Civilization, similarly, must reach this base number."
"But there are 40,000 A-class lives here, enough to support a collective consciousness. In other words, the Moon has the necessary conditions to form a Great Holy Spirit."
The Reverse Flow stated: "Then there's only one other possibility."
"The Great Holy Spirit here does not exist, but rather rejects external visits and connections..."
Zhou Yi and Xiao Fu exchanged silently.
He gazed through the Light Core crystal plane at the Night God walking ahead.
The other party was casually strolling, but her speed was astonishing, and in no time, she reached the polar region of the moon's dark side. The terrain here was complex, filled with craters, mountains, and gorges.
"We're here. You need to use the Light Core to enter."
The Night God waved a round fan towards this side and then walked into a shadow.
Then she disappeared within it.
Hei Fu followed closely.
The Light Core flashed.
As soon as his vision was restored, Zhou Yi found himself in a wilderness.
The ground here was extremely smooth, as if it had been cut and polished from a single massive stone, with various irregular patches of color on the surface.
It was the same Klip Rock material as the Moon Beasts.
On the smooth rock surface, there stood two high towers.
They were both constructed of Heavenly People Gemstones, with the left one bright red and the right one pitch-black.
Both towers were identical quadrangular columns, with ring-like structures on the surface, like they were encrusted with numerous gears.
Zhou Yi stood at the base of the high towers, looking up.
The top of the towers revealed a clear and vast starry sky. It should be underground, but visually, it looked more like a high-altitude region far from the ground.
His attention was quickly drawn to the tower bases.
The bases of the towers were devoid of Klip Rock, and below them was a massive gemstone structure like a frozen lake, glinting with deep, dim light.
Zhou Yi initiated [Panoramic Reading].
[Danger, cannot read.]
[Danger, cannot read.]
He felt his brain aching unbearably, shivering and cold all over.
The level 5 Light Core body couldn't analyze it and instead experienced a consciousness injury.
This thing was way too strong.
Zhou Yi collected himself and asked the Night God beside him: "Can we touch these towers?"
"Yes, there's no danger." The other party said.
Only then did he place his hand on the gemstone exterior of the high towers.
Energy input, consciousness synchronizing.
No response at all.
But his perspective directly connected with the gemstone, granting him a seamless view.
Eh?
Zhou Yi suddenly woke up.
Wasn't this the feeling of entering the Heavenly People Gem Body.
He focused his view deep at the bases of the twin towers.
The space below was vast and boundless.
Under the twin towers connected spherical complete gemstone bodies of Heavenly People. They were in the hundreds, with the gemstones on their surfaces still slowly flowing and rotating at different speeds.
Each Heavenly Person was penetrated by a green light.
These lights completed a series of reflections and refractions through the gemstone bodies, finally converging at the bases of the twin towers, providing power for the Heavenly People…
Zhou Yi slowly let go of his hand.
Deep beneath the Moon was a giant gemstone apparatus built with Heavenly People as components, supporting these two high towers.
That is to say.
This is a planet constructed by some high-level civilization, with the main purpose of carrying the black and red twin towers.
A voice sounded in his ear.
"You really have some connection with the Heavenly People..."
The Night God looked at him with a bit of surprise: "What is going on here?"
Zhou Yi told the truth: "What I know is limited. But these two high towers, Ruby corresponds to the Heavenly People's open memory, Black Gemstone is a tool for the Consciousness Domain. The red one is for storage and recording; the black one is for transmitting and receiving consciousness."
"Do you know how to use it?"
The Night God looked hopeful.
"I know, but I can't use it."
Zhou Yi smiled wryly: "The base of the towers links 151 Heavenly People. Their internal energy has been completely exhausted, turning into White Gemstones."
"The twin towers' energy supply is the Heavenly People, if 151 more Heavenly People cannot be found to connect, this gigantic device cannot be activated. As for what will happen once it's activated, that's unknown."
The Night God listened, her eyes slightly widened, then fell into contemplation: "...So that's how it is."
She seemed unsurprised that the Heavenly People became the fuel for a planetary device.
Zhou Yi couldn't help but recall a speculation he and Xiao Fu had.
"You are the Great Holy Spirit of the Moon?"
"Have you figured it out?"
The Night God revealed a slight smile.
"After thinking it over, that's the only possibility."
Zhou Yi spoke in a deep voice: "This place has all the conditions to create a Great Holy Spirit, yet it hasn't. This indicates that this artificial planet has created a special Great Holy Spirit."
"I only confirmed this long after."
There was a hint of melancholy in the Night God's voice: "Since I became conscious, I was born here. I don't know who created me, nor where that creator went."
"The two high towers have always stood here."
"I only know this is a forbidden area for Heavenly People; they can't come here, and they die or get captured if they do."
"So when I say the Moon is my source and carrier, it's not a lie."
Zhou Yi hesitated: "Have you ever tried to contact the Heavenly People? Since this artificial moon is supported by them, they must know something?"
"Contacting them? That's impossible." The other party shook her head.
Zhou Yi frowned: "Why? At least through the Heavenly Kingdom, there's a chance to find the Heavenly People's projection to Earth, right?"
The Night God's face showed a bit of surprise: "Seems like you still don't know."
"After the first resisting war, the Heavenly People no longer descended to Earth. It's been hundreds of years."
Zhou Yi was stunned: "No, those projections on the ground..."
"Are Golden-faced Guards."
The Night God was still looking at the black-and-red high towers: "But there are two tiers within them, the top is the Heavenly People, and the next tier is the Alternates. The ones wearing uniform armor and masks are the Alternates, each following their respective Heavenly People's commands."
"Those Golden-faced Guards are the 'Heavenly People' that ground-dwellers can come into contact with."
Zhou Yi was a bit bewildered.
"You're saying that in the second resisting war against the Heavenly People, all we faced were Golden-faced Guards?"
"Correct."
The Night God said calmly: "Strictly speaking, a significant portion of the Golden-faced Guards were former resistors later captured and transformed into the earliest Golden-faced Guards by the Heavenly People using Light Core Giants."
"The Golden-faced Guards, managing the Earth World for the Heavenly People."
"The Heavenly People themselves, the Alternates, can use special gemstone devices to project and choose different bodies to select and search for various life forms. Their true forms remain in the Heavenly Person World, and their exact activities are never disclosed."
Zhou Yi was in shock.
So the Heavenly People known worldwide on the surface were actually proxy agents of the Heavenly People?
No wonder earlier, listening to their internal channel communication, they were obviously dissatisfied and unhappy with the Black Emperor. If it were the Heavenly People themselves, such trivial matters wouldn't matter at all.
Indeed.
The Heavenly People's focus is on the Ring Solar Wall, or conquering Jupiter.
"I once tried to contact two Alternates; they refused my request to directly contact the Heavenly People, and they seemed quite wary of me."
The Night God smiled: "But they couldn't do anything to me, so I started the Night Church over there."
"Let me remind you, they have noticed you."
"Be careful."
Zhou Yi's heart tightened.
He slowly nodded: "Got it, thank you."
