Revelation of the Way of Heaven

Chapter 410 Guo Tianming

"Dad, we've come back this time because we have something to talk to you about," Guo Shiyi said.

"Don't you ever come back to see me unless there's something wrong?" Guo Tianming looked at Guo Shiyi with dissatisfaction, but the latter just smiled and made a face. Guo Tianming could only say again, "Alright, tell me, what is it?"

So Guo Shiyi recounted her encounter with the Goddess Nuwa to Guo Tianming in detail. When he heard that the demons in Buzhou Realm were already invading the human world, Guo Tianming couldn't help but frown.

"Dad, you don't seem surprised at all that we've met the Goddess Nuwa." Guo Tianming's calm reaction surprised Guo Shiyi.

"There are many gods in this world, but most people are just too lucky to see them," Guo Tianming said calmly, as if what Guo Shiyi saw and heard was nothing more than an ordinary thing in his eyes.

"Did Daddy also see those gods?" Guo Shiyi asked curiously. "Oh, by the way, Sister Kexin said your abilities come from another mysterious place. What's that all about?"

"Han Kexin tells you everything. What she said is true; my abilities come from the inheritance of Yunmengze," Guo Tianming said.

"Yunmengze?" Guo Shiyi asked in surprise. "Isn't that a legendary place? It really exists?"

"There's nothing surprising about it. Yunmengze, like Buzhou Realm and Kunlun Ruins, is a spatial world independent of our current location, and it's also where many ancient gods resided," Guo Tianming explained. He then looked at Qin Xiaochuan and added, "Qin Xiaochuan is a specialist in ancient mythology, so he should be quite clear about this."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaochuan nodded quickly and said, "That's right. In ancient Chinese mythology, there have always been two mythological systems. One is the Kunlun Ruins mythological system based on the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the other is the Yunmengze mythological system based on the Songs of Chu. The Yunmengze mythological system originated from Chu culture. Compared with the more systematic Kunlun Ruins mythological system, the Yunmengze mythological system appears more mysterious and magnificent because there are too few surviving documents. In the legends about Yunmengze, there are many romantic and affectionate deities, such as Xiang Lady, Mountain Spirit, and Shao Siming."

What Qin Xiaochuan was talking about was content that had been introduced in his major courses in the first semester of his freshman year. Although he had skipped classes quite a few times in the first semester, he still remembered these systematic contents quite clearly. However, that was all he knew. If asked about more detailed information about a certain deity, he would not be able to answer. This was content that would be learned in the junior year.

"If that's the case, Yunmengze must be a very beautiful place," Guo Shiyi said with longing.

"It can be described as a paradise on earth." Guo Tianming's face showed a look of reminiscence. "There is no concept of country in Yunmengze. It is a world ruled by gods. In that world, gods, humans and mountain spirits and monsters all live together equally. Moreover, the people are simple and honest. It is an ideal world that is even more beautiful than I imagined."

"Hearing Dad say that makes me really want to go see it. I still regret not being able to go to Kunlun Market last time," Guo Shiyi said sincerely.

"Yunmengze isn't a place you can just go to whenever you want," Guo Tianming said. "Only those who possess a contract can enter Yunmengze by virtue of the power of that contract."

"What contract?" Guo Shiyi asked, puzzled.

Guo Tianming explained, "You know that Yunmengze is the abode of gods and spirits, a closed world governed by the gods, with Donghuang Taiyi as the main figure. So, if outsiders want to enter, they must be recommended by the successor of one of the gods. The connection between this successor and the god is called the divine contract."

"Then Dad, are you also a successor of some deity?" Guo Shiyi asked curiously.

Guo Tianming nodded and said, "That's right, what I inherited is the power of the stars from Lord Yun Zhongjun."

Qin Xiaochuan recalled his previous battle with Guo Tianming, and realized that the skills Guo used were indeed related to the Twenty-Eight Constellations.

"I didn't expect Dad to have so much experience. I thought you only knew how to handle the messy things in your company," Guo Shiyi teased with a smile.

"Didn't you say I'm old? How can I live up to your assessment without some experience?" Guo Tianming gave Guo Shiyi a resentful look, then couldn't help but boast, "The things your father experienced when he was young could fill a novel. You could say I'm a born leading man. If you don't believe me, you can ask your mother."

"Is that how Mom is?" Guo Shiyi asked Jiang Qingxue curiously.

"Don't listen to his bragging. All he does is show off. He's over 30 years old, doesn't he have any shame?" Jiang Qingxue glared at Guo Tianming.

"I'm not bragging," Guo Tianming retorted. "Thirty years ago, I successfully thwarted a demon clan conspiracy and saved the world, okay?"

"How old were you thirty years ago? What abilities could you possibly have? The ones who truly made the contributions were Brother Xiao and the others. You were just a little follower." Jiang Qingxue ruthlessly revealed the truth of the past.

"Protagonists all need time to grow," Guo Tianming argued. "Besides, I played a crucial role back then."

Hearing Guo Tianming's words, Guo Shiyi couldn't help but ask curiously, "I've also heard Master mention what happened thirty years ago. What exactly happened thirty years ago?"

When Qin Xiaochuan heard Jiang Qingxue mention Brother Xiao, he calculated the time in his mind and it seemed to be exactly the time when the previous Blood Witch King Xiao Yan was traveling in Huaxu. Could it be that the events of thirty years ago were also related to Xiao Yan?

"That incident thirty years ago was huge; it almost plunged the entire world into catastrophe," Guo Tianming said with emotion, his thoughts drifting back to that passionate era.

"Thirty years ago, the demon race, through ideological infiltration and taking advantage of the turmoil and chaos in certain regions, triggered a global upheaval. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the demon race launched the 'Judgment' plan, attempting to control the entire human society by manipulating the economic lifeline during the chaos of the world order's reshaping. Fortunately, the conspiracy was detected in time, and some like-minded individuals stepped forward to stop their attempts."

"This..." Upon hearing Guo Tianming's words, Qin Xiaochuan was stunned. The power of the demon race was indeed terrifying. He recalled what Han Kexin had told him before. They had instigated large-scale historical conflicts in the past, and almost triggered a devastating confrontation. Now it seemed that what she said was not an exaggeration at all.

He is now increasingly understanding what the goddess Nuwa said: humanity's true enemy is not the demon race, but the human heart. Without proper spiritual guidance, even the most powerful group will crumble on its own. If this is true for groups, how much more so for individuals.

"Now they've come back, and this time it's a direct invasion," Guo Shiyi said. "Humanity is facing an unprecedented crisis, no less than a global war."

"This was an inevitable event. In fact, I had a premonition that this day would come thirty years ago. Our actions at that time only delayed the progress of their plan." Guo Tianming sighed helplessly.

"In this time of crisis, all of humanity should unite to withstand this catastrophe. The Blood Witch Clan is willing to stand with humanity to fight the enemy together." Qin Xiaochuan offered his suggestion at this opportune moment.
