Chapter 175: Chapter 164: Death of the Moon God; First Place on the Points Leaderboard; Sun and Moon Divine Positions
Hong Tianyi seemed calm about Zhang Yi’s Points surpassing his. He had anticipated this outcome all along. He just hadn’t expected Zhang Yi to overtake him with more than half a year still left before the exam’s end. This was a bit faster than he had imagined!
After checking the Points leaderboard, Hong Tianyi returned to his Clan, which was in a state of Saint’s Descent. He turned to the Kobold Leader and said, "We can begin the final plan. Send out the Kobold Berserkers!"
"As you command, great Priest!"
...
As for the change in his Points, Zhang Yi had seen it coming. He had been looking forward to a spot in the University Alliance Training Camp for a long time, not to mention the reward the school would give for first place!
However, what excited Zhang Yi even more now was the Moon God’s corpse, which had arrived in his Divine Realm.
Zhang Yi consumed a large amount of Divine Power to extract the Moon God’s residual memories. Ten minutes later, a pure white orb of light appeared before him.
Zhang Yi used his Divine Power to check the orb repeatedly. After confirming that the sphere of light, containing the Moon God’s memories, posed no threat, he absorbed it into his Spiritual Power and began to examine the memories. Since the Moon God had only just died, the cluster of memories Zhang Yi extracted was quite substantial.
Skipping past the Moon God’s initial memories of being an ordinary Dark Elf, Zhang Yi sifted through the residual information, fast-forwarding directly to the period concerning the Elf God’s severe injury and why the Moon Elves dared to rebel.
「An hour passed.」
Zhang Yi withdrew from the Moon God’s residual memories, and the rest of the memory orb dissipated into nothing.
He let out a long breath.
So that’s how it was!
After viewing the Moon God’s memories, Zhang Yi finally had a clear understanding of the events that had transpired in the Moonlight Forest over the last few decades.
According to the Moon God’s memories, the Elf God had been gravely wounded in a great war against the Beast God and the God of the Sea. Afterward, it fell into a deep slumber, hoping to use the Power of Faith to slowly heal its severe injuries.
When the Elf God first fell into its slumber, the Moon Elves, like the other Elf Tribes, were devout in their faith.
One day, a Moon Elf accidentally discovered a micro-plane connected to their Small Magic Plane. Within that micro-plane were the lingering Divine Positions of both the Moon God and the Sun God!
Faced with this immense opportunity, the Moon Elf didn’t hesitate and immediately took the Moon God’s Divine Position. Unfortunately, while this Moon Elf had discovered the opportunity, they lacked the capacity to bear it. They were completely unable to contain the Moon God’s Divine Position. This Moon Elf tried again and again, but in the end, they could only helplessly accept this outcome.
Later, the leader of the Moon Elves learned of this and took the Moon God’s Divine Position for themself. Unfortunately, the leader couldn’t contain it either.
Frustrated that the opportunity before them was impossible to grasp, the leader of the Moon Elves ultimately decided to make it public. Whoever could contain the Moon God’s Divine Position would become the new Moon God!
And so, this Divine Position of the Moon God was passed from one Moon Elf to another.
Finally, the Divine Position came into the hands of the Moon Elf who was destined to become the new Moon God. The Divine Position activated, and a new Moon God was chosen.
This was the origin of the Moon God’s birth.
Upon receiving the Moon God’s Divine Position, the new Moon God also gained inherited knowledge from it, understanding why a Moon Divine Position and a Sun Divine Position remained in that micro-plane.
The reason was actually quite simple, and very cliché. A Moon God and a Sun God had appeared simultaneously within the same micro-plane. However, the faith generated by the creatures living in this micro-plane was only enough to support a single Demigod.
And so, the two Divine Beings engaged in a duel, which ended with them gravely injuring each other and perishing together.
Afterward, all life was extinguished in the war-torn micro-plane. It drifted aimlessly through the void until it was eventually drawn in by the Small Magic Plane and formed a connection. This led to the later event of a Moon Elf discovering the micro-plane and finding the Moon Divine Position.
