Otherworldly Desert Dust-Chapter 627 - 579 High-dimensional Fishing
"When have I ever said he spoke to me?" Wu Hen also responded seriously.

"You clearly said you perceived Him."
"Yes, I perceived him, but he was merely walking peacefully above, without talking to me, or perhaps we fundamentally cannot converse with such a being..." Wu Hen indicated.
"Haha, I thought you were chosen by Heaven, able to hear His voice. Since Heaven hasn't given you any decree, stay there honestly, and don't act like a sensational monkey!" Finally, Huang Xian, the most respected among the Seven Immortals, spoke with a hint of reprimand.
Huang Xian was not dissatisfied with Wu Hen self-styling himself as the Black Immortal, but on such a solemn occasion, he dared to disrespect the celestial ancestor of the immortals, which Huang Xian absolutely would not tolerate.
"I am merely expressing my own feelings. If you think it's false, it shows your insight is too shallow. With your perception and cognition, you are still unable to truly glimpse the figure of this Heaven." Wu Hen also didn't indulge this Huang Xian.
"The ceremony of respecting Heaven has never strictly prohibited talking and discussions. Master Zhan, why make things difficult for my friend? Everyone can speak freely." Fairy Gong Qin also firmly stood on Wu Hen's side.
With Fairy Gong Qin's words, the atmosphere finally eased, gradually, people began to look up to admire the extremely beautiful celestial phenomenon. The vault of heaven turned into an enchanting kaleidoscope. The kaleidoscope reflected everyone's dream-like life, simply gazing at it felt like a journey through a collection of perfect dreams, indulgent, joyous, comfortable, delightful...
The vault of heaven in Infinite City suddenly became the mirror of the masses, the mirror showed everyone's ideal self, simultaneously making them feel the delightful emotions conveyed by their ideal self.
Human Clan Ten Thousand Veins had never been this harmonious, including the gods, as if they were children soaking in a dreamy kingdom, gradually showing heartfelt joyful smiles.
At the same time, it made every god genuinely feel that as long as they escaped the current realm, climbing up a certain Heavenly Ladder, they could achieve everyone's supreme pursuit.
"Cang Chu Divine Realm is like a vast prison; every ten years, the prison guards allow the prisoners to take a break in this Infinite City. During the break, they always glimpse the rainbow outside the high walls of the prison; just a corner of it makes their hearts yearn for the divine..." On the Holy Sect Divine Platform, Cai Lan began to mumble to herself.
Even at her realm, she couldn't glimpse beyond Cang Chu, only having the chance to see higher-dimensional worlds during this ceremony in Infinite City. Her desire now is just curiosity. Who could have thought, after all low-level human desires are fulfilled, curiosity would be so bewitching, forcing every cell in the body to fail to excite, unless to exceed this Cang Chu prison!
"This is merely a fishing by high-dimensional gods. We Human Clan Ten Thousand Veins are like miscellaneous fish swimming into a deep pool. Every morning, high-dimensional gods will scatter bait here, conduct the simplest kind of chumming, then throw a silver fishing line and hook into the pool. If you want to see what the outside world is like, just bite the hook, send out a signal that you've bitten it, and the high-dimensional gods will drag you up, let you exhibit yourself in the sunlight, see clouds and the sky. If they are in a good mood, they'll throw you back into the pool; if not, you'll be placed on their dining table." At this moment, the man in the Black Gnomon Robe from Da Xuan spoke.
His views were similarly heretical, insulting to the immortals.
But the man in Black Gnomon Robe didn't care; he firmly believed heaven wouldn't drop pies, and Da Xuan's current glory was also the result of its people constantly exploring the universe, not something prayed for from heaven by the immortals through this ceremony.
It must be admitted, the thoughts of the man from Da Xuan aligned somewhat with the Nuwa Divine Duan Lineage.
Human Clan Ten Thousand Veins gathering here so grandly, to higher-dimensional gods, was no different from a pool of miscellaneous fish gathering. As for what they were expressing to this lower realm, was it salvation or punishment?
It was actually neither, but simply a fishing, their routine behavior. They had no concept of time; to Human Clan Ten Thousand Veins, ten years were merely a morning to them. The bait thrown into the pool was regarded by the immortals as a decree from Heaven, leading to a grand mobilization, calling for All Races.
Immortals have the understanding of immortals.
Holy Sect has the view of Holy Sect.
Da Xuan also has the doubts of Da Xuan...
Only when these gods of various paths gathered together did Wu Hen find that everyone was the same, all not knowing what the outside world was like, nor knowing what the ceremony of respecting Heaven was for. Ultimately, it's no different from natural phenomena like solar eclipses, red moons, auroras; when people understand them scientifically, they'll find believing can bring good luck and misfortune, perhaps it will, or not believing won't make much difference.
"Has anyone climbed up to see?" Wu Hen indeed was an anomaly, boldly proposing this idea.
Whether it's a fishing line or a signal sent by high-dimensional life, or a decree from the ancestor of the immortals, wouldn't climbing up to see reveal the truth? Since everyone here is godly, you all have the ability to break this shackle.
"Aren't you afraid of becoming braised fish if it's indeed high-dimensional life fishing?" The man in the Black Gnomon Robe from Da Xuan asked with a smile.
"Nonsense, don't forget how your supreme Day God came into being. Without the guidance of predecessors, how could you find that piece of Outer Heaven object?" Huang Xian finally couldn't bear it, reprimanding.
He didn't understand why previous ceremonies of respecting Heaven went smoothly, everyone was fearful yet expecting, following the decree. How come this ceremony had so many rebels, questioning everything and starting to doubt the existence of Heaven?
"Our days in Da Xuan are also tough, the problem of Evil Spirits has already riddled our cities with thousands of holes. If this continues, it will eventually become a Dark Energy Demon Country. I came here not expecting you to solve these problems for us, but one thing must be made known to our Human Clan Ten Thousand Veins, that the corrosion affecting our entire Cang Chu originates from above. To you, it may be Heaven's punishment, but to us, it's viewed as environmental pollution by high-dimensional life." The man in Black Gnomon Robe said.
"Yes, we are also suffering terribly. Why is it this way? Since you all have transcended the mortal world and stand at the divine height, can't the gods ask this Heaven?" A leader from the Hao Clan also said.
"What exactly do you all intend to express?" Huang Xian took a deep breath, not expecting the situation to develop like this, as if the accumulated grievances of the Human Clan erupted today.
"The one thing we Cang Chu cannot understand is the corrosion. The land of the Holy Sect can turn into a barbaric wilderness overnight, our cities in Da Xuan can become an Evil City overnight, and all the disputes of the Human Clan stem from residing on a land that's disaster-prone and incomprehensible. We want to migrate, to find a more suitable place, but the entire Cang Chu is bound by an invisible force, even the strongest gods born here cannot cross it... We people of Cang Chu, where should we go?" The man in Black Gnomon Robe said.
