The Ancient Vast Realm

Just as several people were talking to each other, a cold wave suddenly came from the center of the temple platform.

Feeling this wave, everyone in the temple immediately looked forward, and saw a skinny old man in a black robe who appeared on the stage without knowing when, and a green venomous snake slowly emerged from the void and coiled around the old man.

Behind the old man, two figures stood with their hands hanging down, standing behind him motionlessly, as if they were two statues.

Seeing this old man, everyone immediately stood up and bowed respectfully to the center:

"Greetings, Mr. Snake Demon!"

Feng Xuan followed suit, and stood up when everyone saluted, and bowed with everyone.

At the same time, Feng Xuan was also secretly looking at the old man in black robe.

The other party had an old face, gray hair, and was holding a black snake staff. He stood quietly on the temple platform and looked at everyone, and his pair of green eyes were extremely eye-catching.

Suddenly, when Feng Xuan was secretly looking at the other party, he saw the old man slightly tilt his head and look at Feng Xuan with his creepy green eyes.

The two of them looked at each other instantly, and Feng Xuan felt as if he was stared at by a terrifying poisonous snake. His whole body was stiff and unable to move, and fine beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead.

Feng Xuan felt as if time had stopped at this moment. In his field of vision, a huge, green poisonous snake was slowly spitting out black and purple snake tongues and slowly swimming towards him.

Fortunately, at this moment, a palm was placed on Feng Xuan's shoulder, and the old man on the stage finally looked away when he saw this. Feng Xuan also suddenly recovered from that stiff state, breathing rapidly, with fear flashing in his eyes.

"Hu... Hu... What a terrifying look"

Feng Xuan looked at the old man's somewhat thin figure with fear, and no longer dared to look directly at the other person's eyes.

The scene just now was just a moment, but Feng Xuan felt like it had been a long time.

Feng Xuan turned his head to look at Yin Mo and whispered, "Thank you, Brother Eight."

It turned out that the owner of the palm just now was Brother Eight Yin Mo. If it wasn't Brother Eight, Feng Xuan knew that he would probably still be immersed in that kind of terror and unable to get out of it.

But when Feng Xuan saw Yin Mo's expression, he was slightly stunned. Yin Mo looked serious and looked at him with some reproach and said:

"Little brother, you are too rash. When you meet these strong men in the future, remember not to look directly at them casually, and don't look at them for too long.

His Excellency the Snake Demon is a strong man who came out of the dark age. In that period, the strong were supreme, and a disagreement would kill the whole clan.

And His Excellency the Snake Demon is even more outstanding. He once made a move to kill a world. All the creatures in the entire small world were poisoned to death by him, and the whole world turned into For the dead world.

His Excellency Snake Demon is a strong man who survived the Dark Ages. His temper is also rather strange. Don't offend him. This time, Senior Snake Demon should just give you a small warning and teach you not to be so rash. Otherwise, I can't pull you out of his gaze.

If you meet some idle strong men outside in the future, don't offend them. Some human strong men are not as easy to talk to as His Excellency Snake Demon."

Looking at the serious look of the eighth senior brother, Feng Xuan nodded solemnly.

The slackness during this period of time made him forget that he should always have enough respect for the strong.

Feng Xuan bowed slightly to the old man Snake Demon on the stage, not only to apologize but also to thank him for his enlightenment.

Seeing this, the old man Snake Demon's eyes flashed with appreciation, and he nodded to Feng Xuan imperceptibly.

"Everyone stand up and sit down"

As the old man Snake Demon's voice fell, everyone sat down again.

Looking at the people around him, the old snake demon slowly asked a question.

"Do you know what a god is? What a spirit is? What is a god?"

Hearing the sudden question from the old snake demon, the people on the stage looked at each other, somewhat at a loss.

Seeing this, the old snake demon was not surprised, but spoke again:

"You can speak freely and express your interpretation of the gods in your heart"

After a while, a white-robed witch stood up, bowed slightly to the old snake demon, and then said:

"Sir, I think that the powerful are gods, the wise are spirits, and the combination of the two is a god!"

As soon as this was said, everyone in the field whispered to each other, some agreed, and some opposed.

At this moment, one person stood up and refuted:

"Sir, I have a different opinion. The word "god" is just a general term for the incomprehensible existence that the weak fear.

For example, in the ancient times of chaos, the ancient books of the human race recorded: There are gods, who lift mountains, cut rivers, pick stars, and do what ordinary people cannot do. They are gods.

However, later, when we began to master the way of cultivation, when some people began to do the deeds of gods with the body of living beings, the word "god" was destroyed. God is just a kind of awe of the unknown.

Just like now, as long as the existence reaches the fourth realm, they can all be called earthly gods, because their power is no different from the gods in the legend. Such existences, each of them is a living god!"

After hearing this, another person couldn't help it and immediately stood up and refuted:

"No, I think that gods are born and powerful. They are the embodiment of rules and the incarnation of the will of heaven and earth. The gods are the products of the spiritual intelligence of these gods. They are for the gods. .

The spirit is nurtured by living beings. Living beings are born with spiritual wisdom, but they are born weak. No matter how powerful they become through practice, they are fundamentally different from the gods in the nature of life."

...

As everyone discussed, everyone argued with each other with red faces, and they all put forward their own opinions.

Feng Xuan watched this scene, glanced at his senior brother quietly, and asked in a low voice:

"Brother, what do you think the gods are?"

Upon hearing Feng Xuan's inquiry, Yin Mo did not answer him directly, but said:

"It depends on how you understand it. Do you regard Him as an existence or a phenomenon?"

Hearing what his senior brother said, Feng Xuan frowned slightly, not quite understanding.

Just when he wanted to continue asking, the old snake demon on the stage gently tapped the black snake staff in his hand on the ground. Suddenly, a dull sound spread, and the heated discussion among the people fell silent instantly. .

"The so-called gods, in fact, what you said is correct, but it is not comprehensive enough. The gods can have many explanations, and next, I can show you one of them, the gods born naturally between heaven and earth!"
