Capítulo 36: Chapter Thirty-six: Awe-Inspiring Miracles! A New Era
[Year Eight of the Divine Descent], April 13.
The members of the three tribes, with elders and children in tow, trekked long distances to gather, all for the chance to witness the arrival of the Divine City!
"Phew, thank goodness I'm not late; the divine bestowal hasn't commenced yet..."
"What does it matter if you're not late? We're merely here to watch; without achievements, we have no right to reside in the city!"
"Why do the entrants from the Na Lan and Zuo Qiu tribes outnumber those from the Huyan tribe? How is that fair?"
"The selection results were unanimously agreed upon by the three leaders; what do you know?"
The crowd buzzed with chatter, but when the once bright sky suddenly cloaked itself in ominous shadow, everyone instinctively fell silent.
They held their breath, eyes upwards.
The divine bestowal was at hand!
"Is that… the true form of the deity?"
At the edge of the construction site, the leaders and higher-ups of the three tribes gazed skyward.
Except for a few elderly or frail individuals, most had undergone enhancements from the special blood of the purple-skinned creatures or the juices of the Crystal Vines.
The source energy they absorbed not only fortified their physical bodies but also heightened their sensory perceptions beyond the limits of mortal existence.
At this moment, they could vaguely discern massive hands above the clouds, holding a square shadow that descended slowly.
Woosh—
The clouds parted, and the giant hands emerged with crystal clarity!
Now, even the ordinary tribesmen could glimpse Wang Hui's hand.
"My heavens… such enormous hands!"
"To think it's using its hands to lower the Divine City—this is the boundless might of the deity?"
"Just one hand is this massive; how colossal must the deity's body be?"
...
The three tribes erupted into astonishment!
Even the usually haughty Huyan Longzhu turned pale.
Though his grip tightened on his eight-foot-long spear, trembling coursed through his body!
"This is a deity… this is what a deity truly is!"
In a primal instinct of reverence mingled with an indescribable excitement!
If being overshadowed by Wang Hui's imposing presence during the martial arts contest had left Huyan Longzhu feeling resentful,
today's revelation of the deity's true form erased any lingering discontent!
Seeing such a visible chasm in power instills agitation and dissatisfaction, but when the disparity becomes insurmountable, those feelings transform quietly.
Experiencing a crushing defeat by such a magnificent existence is only natural!
Meanwhile, Gurumi, standing beside Na Lan Xia, gaped in shock, even the morsels of meat in her hands lost their appeal.
"Just a single finger is that thick, yet it insisted on masquerading as a mere mortal to toy with me…
How infuriating!"
Gurumi muttered with barely concealed terror, her petite body trembling uncontrollably!
In comparison to the true deity, her so-called kingship of the underground felt utterly minuscule…
"Welcome the divine bestowal! Kneel before the three tribes—"
Na Lan Xia struggled to maintain her composure, commanding loudly, and instantly, tens of thousands dropped to their knees like harvested wheat!
In truth, even without such an order, their legs would have weakened, requiring mutual support to remain upright.
Boom—
In a thunderous roar, the Divine City settled securely into the meticulously prepared foundation.
Its dimensions matched flawlessly!
"To have constructed such a nearly perfect foundation based solely on my verbal data—Na Lan Xia's efforts are truly commendable..."
Wang Hui retracted his hand with satisfaction.
Gazing at the newly placed miniature city, it appeared as if it had always belonged to the miniature world!
No wonder he had instinctively sought out Na Lan Xia upon his recent descent; this woman was indeed exceptionally capable and deeply understood his intentions.
Yet, at times, she fabricated aspects even Wang Hui hadn't considered…
At this moment, the riverway of the nearby stream connected seamlessly with the waterways of the Divine City.
The rising mist and wandering fish lent a touch of vitality to the machine-carved city.
After all, this was an artisan's creation from the outside world, crafted for aesthetic appeal; the interior structures were not overly intricate.
To accommodate twelve thousand inhabitants, the three tribes would need to take the initiative to construct additional housing in the available spaces.
Wang Hui had briefed them in advance, and the tribes were well-prepared.
As the city gates opened, convoy after convoy carrying stone and timber rolled along the stone path into the city, bearing the dreams of new homes for the little inhabitants…
This day was destined to be a pivotal moment in the history of the three tribes.
A new era would dawn from this point forward!
...
[Year Eight of the Divine Descent], April 24.
The Divine City had descended from the heavens for eleven days.
Those assigned to the ready-made homes gradually adapted to life within the city.
No more treacherous mountain paths or muddy fields whenever it rained.
The entire city was paved with large, flat tiles, making movement extraordinarily effortless!
The towering walls lacked blind spots, eliminating fears of nocturnal beasts invading their homes.
The clean and tidy environment meant that even insects were a rarity…
Living here was a true pleasure!
Those constructing their own homes expressed little discontent.
Not only were the building materials provided by the tribe, but Gurumi, the tentacled slime, also lent her assistance.
The tasks requiring personal effort were minimal, and they even received extra food supplies, resulting in cheerful countenances all around!
"This is what it means to truly live..."
Huyan Qingbai reclined in the pavilion before his home, leisurely sipping on steaming chocolate soup, his expression contented.
As an elder of the Huyan tribe, he had earned accolades in multiple battles against the purple-skinned creatures.
His keen "Eagle Eyes" frequently detected enemy movements early, mitigating losses for his side.
Thus, even having previously participated in the pursuit of Zuo Qiu Yue, he was spared and included in the first batch of city residents, receiving a new home of his own.
"Eh?"
Huyan Qingbai glanced sideways, catching sight of his neighbor, Huyan Longzhu, polishing his weapon.
The titanium steel spear gleamed ominously, causing him to shudder involuntarily!
"Longzhu! Are you planning to train again? There are no enemies left; why put yourself through such hardship?"
Huyan Longzhu, hearing the languid voice, merely pouted, uninterested in engaging.
He had little regard for such indulgent and undisciplined elders of the tribe.
However, recalling the deity's teaching, Huyan Longzhu coldly replied,
"Today marks my three-year anniversary with the deity; I must attend the appointment!"
...
In the Divine City, the martial arts arena.
Though the three tribes had reconciled their differences, formed an alliance, and eradicated the underground purple-skinned creatures,
peace did not imply that everyone would abandon martial skills.
Particularly those warriors who had undergone physical enhancement through the blood of the purple-skinned creatures or the juices of the Crystal Vines continued to engage in rigorous training amidst their labor.
Occasionally, they would gather with friends to spar and showcase their martial prowess.
The martial arts arena was established for this very purpose!
The nine platforms were constructed of alternating wooden beams and stone slabs, remarkably sturdy, capable of withstanding the relentless assaults of the enhanced fighters.
Yet today, all the arenas lay empty, while the surrounding spectator stands were teeming with eager onlookers, animated discussions echoing throughout!
