The Fools' ancestors had used Divine Corpses to build the Sky Cities!
Seeing this explained many things.
The reason the Sky Cities could not fly too high was not any limitation of the cities themselves, but the presence of the divine corpses. If they flew too high, "certain beings" Above the High Heavens would sense them.
And these "beings" Above the High Heavens were very likely what had driven the God Race to extinction...
This also explained why the Shadow God's Shadow had desperately tried to rush into the Dungeon after entering Dawn City. It had sensed the divine corpse inside and wanted to claim it as its own flesh, restoring its complete divine body.
Mu You exhaled and looked up at the giant floating before him.
As for the identity of this Divine Corpse, he could guess without examining it.
It was the deity represented by Dawn City's God Statue-the God of Order!
Next, Mu You took out his Flying Broomstick and flew several circles around the Divine Corpse.
Unfortunately, there was nothing in this space apart from the Divine Corpse. It was excessively bare.
Only when Mu You flew behind the neck did he see a line of small lettering carved into the skin at the back of the god's neck.
"No. 001: God of Order. Excavator of Divine Corpse: Heinz McCain. Time since excavation: 4,504 years, 127 days, 6 hours, 3 minutes, 08 seconds..."
It really was the God of Order!
But what shocked Mu You even more was the "time since excavation" that followed. It was actually changing in real time!
During the few seconds Mu You watched, he saw the timer counting up from "3 minutes, 8 seconds," its seconds increasing once every second.
Such a miraculous timekeeping method was not particularly difficult to understand
