The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 1052 - 493: Candle Light Believers_3

It’s like using up all the strength in one’s body.

"I thought I didn’t have the courage to tell you these words."

He sighed with relief and even laughed: "Seems my skin is thicker than I imagined, probably because I’m getting older. Or maybe it’s because I’m facing you, not the victim."

"If possible, I’d have Tang Ling stand in front of you to hear what you have to say."

Gu Jianlin said expressionlessly, "Or, Xia Zhi could do it." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Professor Cheng smiled silently.

"What is source material?"

Gu Jianlin asked.

"Source material is the strange mist that emanates when you use the Third Law."

Professor Cheng sighed: "Children implanted with source material, if unable to withstand it, will have their souls torn apart."

He originally thought that after saying these words, the young man on the other side would become angry or lose control.

Whether it’s grabbing his collar and roaring in question, or chopping off his head with a knife.

There should at least be some reaction.

Unfortunately, Gu Jianlin remained calm and indifferent.

"That experiment was not something you could accomplish alone."

He suddenly asked, "You had help, didn’t you?"

"Yes, but if you want a list of names, I’m afraid I can’t help you."

Professor Cheng shook his head and said, "Currently, the person closest to the Primordial is very cautious, and the believers I see are almost always different each time. I once tried to investigate their real identities, but it turned out that they were all dead. In the Order World, dead people are nothing unusual, and there are too many reasons to cover it up."

Gu Jianlin didn’t know what words to express his feelings.

Candle Light Believers.

Throughout endless ages, those who believed in Zhu Zhao have hidden themselves in the shadows of the world, controlling the course of history, even creating the Order World. This is not a mere organization, but a collective of belief, or one might say an ideology, so vast as to be unimaginable.

The world you think you know has always been under their shroud.

It’s like "The Truman Show," where what you see and understand is all arranged.

If not for some world-shaping individuals appearing, this world would still be kept in the dark.

For instance, back then, Qing and Chi faced relentless pursuit.

And the ones hunting them were their own teachers!

Taiqing!

"Was Taiqing once one of them?"

Gu Jianlin pondered: "Who is the person closest to Zhu Zhao?"

Professor Cheng raised his eyes to him, saying seriously: "I’ve told you before, the Primordial can be replaced because Zhu Zhao’s self-awareness had problems as early as the Ancient Times. The President sealed it with supreme power, which indeed prevented the Candle Light Believers from expanding further, but the issue is... the self-awareness of the Candle Light Divine Tree likely fell into slumber. This precisely gives someone the opportunity to truly usurp it."

Gu Jianlin was stunned.

"The true user of the Candle Light Divine Tree’s curse, controlling the unified will, is someone else."

Professor Cheng said solemnly: "Therefore, the Heavenly Person’s Wedge becomes crucially important."

Gu Jianlin murmured softly, "Wedge?"

"We haven’t fully understood the mysteries of the Ancient God’s Wedge, but what can be confirmed is that only the Wedge can let the Ancient God Realm fully merge with the real world. For instance, when you become strong enough, you can manipulate your Wedge and fuse Qilin Immortal Palace with the real world, completely invading this realm."

Professor Cheng glanced at him and said in a low voice: "Therefore, by the same logic, the Heavenly Person’s Wedge might summon the Candle Light Divine Tree, allowing it to completely implant into the real world, thus fully completing its billion-year gestation."

Gu Jianlin suddenly thought of something.

Spirituality is also a form of energy; it is conserved.

The existence of the Inheritance Path is precisely to nourish some existence...
