Lu Zhiyu crossed the streets of Enlightenment City. They had built a defense wall outside the original oasis and the Jujube Forest had become even larger, plentiful and substantial fruits growing on the trees.
The magic radio in the shop on the street played the channel from the Pusuote region. The soprano was melodious and pleasing to the ears. The sand-colored stone buildings seemed to have camouflaged and fused with the desert until they were one. The sand on the ground was hot, yet the people in the city seldom wore shoes.
Lu Zhiyu walked along the spacious road and through the town square, arriving at the Temple of Fate. Most of the priestesses in the temple were women wearing black robes and veils. The thin robes couldn’t conceal the graceful figures of the Batko women. But any believer who arrived there dared not have any frivolous or evil thoughts toward them.
Above the dome of the Temple of Fate was an eye. The moment one saw it, it gave them a feeling that one could see through all fates through the long passage of time.
Lu Zhiyu walked up the stairway in front of the Temple of Fate. He ignored the praying and begging of the people in front of the temple. He had walked all the way to the temple because, on that day, The Daughter of Fate wasn’t praying for blessings or enlightening anyone, so the temple was empty.
Lu Zhiyu could see everyone from there. There was a thread of consciousness on the body that led directly to the Temple of Fate. In Enlightenment City, the thread of consciousness emanating from the consciousness of all people weaved into a huge net above the city.
When Lu Zhiyu stepped inside, all the priestesses in the temple knelt on the ground as if they had known he was coming.
Lu Zhiyu walked towards the middle of the temple and the Eyes of Fate on the dome seemed to be watching him. There were many pillars in the empty hall, each of them carved with stories about fate.
The young girl with a black veil sat cross-legged on top of it. She saw Lu Zhiyu and, in an instant, her sky-blue eyes were attached to him, trying to gain insight and understand him thoroughly.
Lu Zhiyu walked toward her and stopped more than ten meters in front of her, sitting on the blanket beneath the steps where she would pray and enlighten her believers. Lu Zhiyu sat at a lower position compared to her. She looked down at him from above, but somehow, it made the priestesses feel that Fate was trembling.
“I knew you were coming, Creator!” said the young girl with the black veil.
Lu Zhiyu looked up at her and said, “That’s really terrific! The power of fate!” Then he sighed. “I didn’t think you really existed. What should I call you, Daughter of the World, The Daughter of Fate, or Maria?”
Yes, Natasha was the reincarnation of the world’s consciousness. After the creation of Maria’s World, with the continuous advancement of Maria’s World, the formation of the world’s consciousness began to come into being. And the name of Maria, which was chosen as a joke by Lu Zhiyu in the past, had seemingly determined her image and gender.
If there had been no Lu Zhiyu, she would have been the first God born naturally in Maria’s World and the genuine master of Maria’s World, but everything had changed because of the emergence of Lu Zhiyu.
She was born too late, and when she appeared, everything was already established. She was the last god that was born.
Lu Zhiyu had been unconsciously suppressing her birth prior to this, but when he was at the last step of perfecting the Divine System, he found that only when she was integrated into the Divine System could Maria’s World be transformed into the real Divine Kingdom. This was because she represented the world.
Natasha sized up Lu Zhiyu and Lu Zhiyu sized her up too. She was the first person to be born with a sacred existence, and her birth represented the will of the world. She was a Level Seven Mythical Being at birth, she was an inherent god.
She was born to be a being of Mythical Life. In her body, it was very difficult for Lu Zhiyu to see the feelings and strong desire like he could in ordinary people. Instead, there was a superior and non-human temperament which was extremely cold and ethereal.
There was a great difference between Natasha and Lu Zhiyu. The existence of gods and other Mythical Beings which had gotten rid of the restraints of the body and advanced as gods had formed their personality imprints. Emotions and desires were just part of the personality imprint. Even if they became gods, emotions and desires would go along with them.
But the young girl in front of him was different. She was born into the world without the shackles of the body. She was born sacred.
Lu Zhiyu didn’t know how to make a comment on which was a better definition of god; whether the existence of natural gods was more in line with the definition of gods, or whether gods of his kind, which had advanced from mortals, suited the definition.
“Are you here to destroy me?” Natasha looked at Lu Zhiyu without a tinge of fear.
“No, I’m here to seek enlightenment!” Lu Zhiyu smiled.
Natasha asked, “Can the Creator feel confused?”
“Yes, even the Creator can’t fathom his own fate!” Lu Zhiyu nodded. “Since you’re the Daughter of Fate, I wanted to ask, what is fate?”
“Fate is the trajectory of all life forms!”
The two beings asked and answered interchangeably, the questions were straightforward and simple, and the answers were straightforward and simple, too.
Then Lu Zhiyu asked a tough question. “What’s my fate?”
Natasha looked up. “The fate of the immortal is immortality! The undead have no fate. Fate is reincarnation, fate is destiny, and without death, there’s no reincarnation, there’s no destiny!”
“The life of ordinary people is a long river, flowing from top to bottom, and I’m in charge of fate. As long as I’m standing on the long river of time, I can calculate their futures and life trajectory. But the fate of the immortal is round, there’s never an end!”
Lu Zhiyu felt a little disappointed. He had expected to see something different. He didn’t expect that it was so simple. “The circle will be broken, and it’s just that you can’t fathom it now!”
But Natasha replied, “That’s because you’ve limited my future. Without you, I would be the real Goddess of Fate, in charge of everyone’s destiny!”
Natasha fixed her gaze on Lu Zhiyu. There was a slight fluctuation in the girl’s sky-blue eyes. She didn’t know whether it was longing, helplessness, or regret. “When I was born, it should have been the beginning of everything, but I realize it’s the end of everything!”
“Because I’m your Creator! I’m also the Creator of the world!”
“You believe in fate. Isn’t this your fate?”
The beautiful face beneath Natasha’s veil showed a trace of mockery. “Fate? No, I’m just a god who can’t control her own destiny…”
“Goddess of Fate!”
Lu Zhiyu sunk into his own thoughts for a good moment, then he looked up and asked, “Do you want to bet?” As he said that, Lu Zhiyu looked energetic all of a sudden as if he was a child. “The chip of the bet will be… this world!”
Natasha looked at Lu Zhiyu. The way Lu Zhiyu made a bet using the world as a chip was akin to tossing a coin out from his pocket, it was insignificant and unimportant. “What are you betting on?” Natasha’s usually indifferent eyes, like the light of stars, were constantly being stirred up because of the man in front of her.
“Fate!” Lu Zhiyu said excitedly.
Natasha was unable to comprehend him. “In your eyes, can the world be easily used as a chip for a bet?”
Lu Zhiyu nodded. “Of course, neither this world nor the Crystal Wall System is important in my eyes. The world is just a combination of energy and material. As long as I master its knowledge and truth, and then possess material energy and time, I can produce one after another.”
“If I’m not bored by it, I can make infinite numbers of them, but what does it mean to me to have so many worlds and a huge Crystal Wall System? It’s like the gold coins that can only be looked at but can’t be spent. Meanwhile, I’m a ridiculous miser guarding the treasures. If you can discover and unravel the truth about fate, then why not?”
“Even if I lose the whole Crystal Wall System, I’ll take the people I cherish and leave. It’ll merely take thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, to re-create a Crystal Wall System, perhaps a more perfect, more beautiful and magical Crystal Wall System.”
“Bu only if you can do it!”
