Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2815
Chapter 1328 The Temple
Zu An used his divine sense to explore the world and learned that everyone else had entered a temple that resonated with them.
Qiu Honglei went to the Temple of Longevity because of the Divine Dragon Elixir of Immortality;
Suolun Shi went to the Temple of Memory with Xie Daoyun, who also had the identity of an ancient demon saintess, and the two forged a deep friendship.
Xie Daoyun was skilled in using a pen and runes, which was indeed suitable for the Temple of Memory. Qi
Yaoguang and Tang Tian’er went to the Temple of Chaos and Mystery. Qi Yaoguang’s stargazing technique was a branch of mysticism, which was indeed the most suitable path for her.
As for Tang Tian’er, her identity had always been mysterious, which also suited her style.
Sang Qian and Kong Nanwu went to the Temple of Wisdom. They were both known for their wisdom and resourcefulness, so it was normal for them to be chosen by the Temple of Wisdom.
Yun Yuqing and Zheng Dan going to the Temple of Order surprised him somewhat. Yun Yuqing, as a descendant of the ancient Heavenly Emperor, wanted to inherit the Heavenly Emperor’s will and rebuild the Heavenly Court’s order, which was indeed in line with the path of order. But what about Zheng Dan? Why did she embark on the path of order?
The Little Demon Queen, Empress Dowager Liu Ning, and Qingqiu Kingdom’s ruler Tu Shanyu went to the Temple of Pleasure and Desire. This wasn’t surprising, as the Little Demon Queen, Liu Ning, and Tu Shanyu were all alluring beauties, and this path allowed them to unleash their full charm.
It was initially thought that Yun Jianyue and Qiu Honglei would be on this path, given their cultivation of seductive arts, but they weren’t.
Of course, the path of Pleasure and Desire isn’t just about desire; it also includes pleasure. When Yan Hua impersonated a follower of this path, she showed no trace of desire, her most prominent characteristic being pleasure—in short, she seemed like a pleasure-seeker.
However, when Yan Hua later simultaneously manifested as Yani and Theodora, it was indeed quite alluring…
Bai Rouxue, like the Chu sisters, went to the Guardian Temple. While Zhao and You Zhao have always protected the Chu family in their own ways, Bai Rouxue is protecting her own child, which certainly aligns with this path.
Zu An was somewhat surprised that Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing went to the Temple of Reproduction. In his perception, those who went to the Temple of Reproduction were mostly insectoids and sea creatures, all of whom shared the characteristic of giving birth in massive broods.
What was going on with Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing? He still vividly remembered their slender figures; they certainly didn’t seem like they were good at bearing children.
Meanwhile, Zhao Xiaodie went to the Temple of Annihilation. Perhaps due to his several battles with the monsters under Annihilation’s command, Zu An subconsciously disliked the Temple of Annihilation.
Was she going to the Temple of Annihilation to gain power to avenge her father, King Qi…?
Back when the Shadow Pavilion rebelled, Zhao Yuan and his ilk gained immense power from Annihilation, a fact known throughout the world.
This attracted many ambitious figures from evil sects seeking power at the Temple of Annihilation.
Besides these women, many familiar faces from the capital and the Demon King’s court had also entered temples suitable for their paths.
However, Zu An had no time to think about anything else; he was more concerned about where Pei Mianman and the others had gone.
“Chu Yan, if you had to choose, which temple would you choose?”
Chu Chu Yan thought for a moment and replied, “Actually, my first reaction was to go to the Chaos Temple, just like my master. After all, the cultivation technique I practice is the ‘Supreme Forgetfulness Chapter.’ But thinking about how even with my master’s cultivation and realm, he ended up forgetting everything, even forgetting himself, I feel that the Chaos Temple is not suitable for me.”
After speaking, she paused, gently stroking her lover’s cheek, “I’ve already lost you once, and I never want to lose you a second time.”
The experience of Xue Nu forgetting everything still terrified her.
Zu An embraced her, and the two lingered tenderly for a long time before discussing the situation of the others.
“Azu, you don’t need to worry too much. This kind of disappearance is not an isolated case. Maybe they have other opportunities. There aren’t only twelve paths in this world. Besides, aren’t there two other temples that haven’t appeared yet?”
Zu An naturally knew that the Temple of Death would not appear again, leaving only the Temple of Love and Beauty.
It wouldn’t matter if others were summoned by the Goddess of Beauty, but Ji Dengtu simply couldn’t be associated with the Way of Love and Beauty.
“I’ll go check out those temples,” Zu An decided, deciding to go himself to find out the answer.
Chu Chuyan, however, was worried: “Zu, your current status is special. If you enter a temple, you might attract the gaze of a true god. It’s too dangerous.”
Strictly speaking, he was a god of this world, and in the eyes of those true gods, he might be a false god or a heretic. Coupled with his dual divine envoy status, if he offended a true god in another temple, several lives wouldn’t be enough to save him.
“Don’t worry, I’ll go to the Temple of Memory and Mystery first. I won’t take any risks.”
Zu An naturally knew that he was probably at risk because he had ruined the God of Annihilation’s plans during the previous Trial of Death. How could he dare to go to His temple? He would first go to his own family to inquire.
Chu Chuyan was relieved. She originally planned to go with him, but Zu An was worried about the unknown dangers in the temples and told her to stay home and spend more time with her mother.
After bidding farewell to the mother and daughter, Zaun teleported to the outside of the Chaos and Mystic Temple. Looking at the vast and magnificent temple before him, he couldn’t help but marvel at how the world’s cultivators had gone mad the moment these temples appeared.
This magnificent structure was beyond human capability; there was no other explanation but a divine miracle.
He approached the temple, but someone quickly stopped him: “Only the most devout followers of Chaos and Mysticism are allowed to enter.”
Not everyone in the world knew him.
Zaun didn’t bother them, quickly displaying the aura of a divine messenger, instantly causing those around him to widen their eyes.
This pure divine power seemed to belong only to true gods. Could this being be the great Chaos and Mystic True God?
Zaun walked straight inside, and this time no one dared to stop him.
The hall had a high dome, and two rows of towering statues lined the path, each holding a giant trombone. Sensing the person’s entry, the statues played long, powerful melodies.
Zaun sensed a law interwoven within the hall; from what he understood from others, this was likely the various temples checking whether those entering were their followers.
Of course, mere faith isn’t enough; the temple must also assess your aptitude before deciding whether to accept you.
Whether it’s the vast divine sound or the unseen laws, ordinary people who come here only think of worship.
Some high-ranking figures in the temple, like bishops, were about to reprimand the newcomer when they saw him enter, but sensing a power from the newcomer that was even purer than their own, they hurriedly bowed and subtly inquired about his identity.
Zuan had no time to pay them any attention and went directly to the central statue.
That was the highest point in the entire temple, its walls and ceiling adorned with all sorts of patterns, truly chaotic and mysterious.
Looking at the statue before him, Zuan was somewhat surprised; this was the first time he had seen such a bewildering form.
Judging from its appearance, it seemed to have more female characteristics, but it had no face. Gods would not allow their true faces to be revealed casually, and ordinary beings could not bear the consequences of seeing the true face of a god.
“Great God of Chaos and Mystery, your messenger pays you the most sincere respect…” Zaun prayed there, trying to call out to the other party, having too many questions he wanted answered, but to his surprise, no matter how he called out, the other party did not respond.
