The Sea Fate's Transformation
Human Realm.
Every church and every shrine devoted to the Radiance Lord burst into holy light.
"Quick! The divine will has descended. Hurry and welcome it!"
"Good heavens, it's the light of the gods!"
"The Radiance Lord has manifested!"
"Get down on your knees! Don't anger the gods!"
"Yes, yes!"
Throughout the world, worshippers and believers, Transcendents and ordinary people alike, knelt or sat before the Divine Statues and paid their respects.
At that moment, a god was descending from the heavens, personally watching over everything in the mortal world.
The gods were quite tolerant of those who did not believe in them, and never punished them.
They also forbade their own followers from ostracizing those who believed in other faiths.
But.
Anyone who dared show disrespect to a god face-to-face was confirmed to have committed blasphemy.
The gods would use the blasphemer's soul and corpse to broadcast a grand fireworks display live.
When the gods had first descended, countless fireworks had bloomed across the world every nightfall. It had been a truly spectacular sight.
Only after those powerful beings realized they had no way to withstand divine might did the number of fireworks gradually dwindle.
By now, such grand displays had all but disappeared.
Once everyone had finished bowing before the Divine Statues, the god's majestic voice rang out from them:
"Mortal ones, beneath my command stands another deity, whose name is 'Water God.'"
"By worshipping this god, you may gain all manner of incredible powers, setting yourselves apart from ordinary people and embarking upon the path of transcendence."
"Begin by calling upon this god's name, and you shall receive its protection and the blessing of its power."
Mu finished speaking and nodded in satisfaction.
He turned to Gu Qingshan and asked, "Well?"
