Da Qin: Conquer all heavens and all realms
Chapter 349 Unnamed Draft
The Holy Land of the Divine Court of Light is currently experiencing the most violent turmoil since its birth.
It wasn't a war on the physical level, no earth-shattering collision of energies, no clash of divine weapons. It was a war on the level of laws, a judgment on "existence" itself.
The golden code in Ying Zheng's hand is the scepter of this trial and the weapon of this war.
As the words "Judgment, begin!" fell, the golden characters on the code seemed to have life and turned into golden chains. These chains were not made of energy, but were woven from pure "concepts of law."
They ignored space and defense, and directly penetrated the divine barrier of the Holy Land, which was known as the "strongest in the heavens", and entangled every inch of land, every wisp of divine power, and even the soul of every living being in the Holy Land.
"In the name of the law, analyze."
Ying Zheng's voice was calm, yet carried an unquestionable majesty.
The golden chains wrapped around the sanctuary began to emit a faint light. Like the most sophisticated instruments, they began to conduct a thorough "analysis" of everything that had happened in the Divine Court of Light over billions of years.
First is the "power of faith".
The golden divine power, formed by the piety, prayers, and hopes of hundreds of millions of believers, was peeled off layer by layer under the analysis of the golden chain. People saw what kind of truth was hidden under this sacred glory.
The piety of believers is transformed by God into nourishment to maintain his own immortality.
The prayers of believers are stolen by the gods and turned into "oracles" that predict the future.
The hope of believers is used by God as "divine grace" to consolidate his own rule.
The so-called "God loves the world" is nothing more than a carefully planned, large-scale "spiritual harvest." Believers offer their most precious things, but in return, they receive only the illusory "promise of the afterlife" and the illusion of "God's favor."
This scene was clearly displayed in front of all the believers of the Temple of Light through the projection of the golden chains.
"No... This is not true! Our God is merciful! He is great!" Some fanatical believers shouted hysterically, trying to deny everything they saw.
However, the law of cause and effect does not talk about faith, but only about facts.
On the golden chain, specific scenes began to emerge -
A devout farmer worked all year round and donated half of his harvest to the temple, praying for good weather.
However, a sudden flood destroyed everything he had. As he looked up at the statue in despair, within the divine realm, Jehovah, feeling a surge of strength from his "sacrifice," turned a blind eye to his suffering.
A pure girl prays day and night and is willing to give everything she has to save her seriously ill family member.
Her prayers were "heard", and a priest came and healed her family with a "miracle", but used this as a threat to kidnap her and make her a "holy maiden" of the temple, but in fact she was just a plaything of the priest.
And Jehovah chose to condone this ugliness happening right under his nose.
Scene after scene, incident after incident, are all irrefutable evidence that the Court of Light has used the name of faith to commit evil over the long years.
These images, like the sharpest knives, pierced the last illusions in the hearts of all believers.
Despair, anger, betrayal... all sorts of negative emotions began to spread wildly among the believers. Their once most steadfast faith, at this moment, completely collapsed.
The direct consequence of the collapse of faith is the exhaustion of divine power.
The eternal golden light of the Holy Land of the God of Light began to dim at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The towering temple, having lost the support of the power of faith, began to crack and groan under the heavy burden.
The holy light on the angels began to flicker, and the divine power they were proud of was rapidly fading away.
"No! My power! My divine power!" A high-level angel screamed in horror. He felt his body becoming weak, as if he was about to turn back into a mortal.
"It's Ying Zheng! He is shaking our foundation!" Another archangel's eyes were bloodshot. He tried to mobilize divine power to launch an attack, but found that the divine power he was proud of was like a drop in the ocean and could not be condensed at all.
This is the terrible thing about the "law of cause and effect".
It does not confront you head-on, but directly denies the legitimacy of your existence from the root of "cause and effect".
When your "cause" (the deception of faith) is exposed, your "result" (the existence of divine power) will naturally collapse.
Jehovah's face had changed from fear to ashen.
He looked at the Divine Court that he had created and had been glorious for billions of years, which was collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and an unprecedented fear and rage surged in his heart.
"Ying Zheng! You are playing with fire! You have destroyed faith, and the heavens and the worlds will fall into chaos! Countless lives will fall into depravity due to the loss of guidance! You are the eternal sinner!" He roared at the top of his lungs, trying to make a final struggle, defining Ying Zheng's behavior as an evil act "against the universe."
However, Ying Zheng just glanced at him indifferently, with a hint of pity in his eyes.
"Guidance? My laws are the best guidance. Order, not divine authority, is the foundation for all living beings to live and work in peace and contentment. As for corruption..."
A cold arc appeared at the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth.
"My laws will judge the corrupt. But before that, I must first judge you, the 'gods' who created corruption and profited from it!"
The golden code in his hand turned to a new page.
"First sin: Using the name of God to deceive, steal the faith of all beings, and enslave their souls. Sentence—stripped of godhood, cast down to the mortal world!"
Following Ying Zheng's verdict, a thicker and more condensed golden chain flew out from the code and precisely wrapped around Jehovah's body.
That's not winding, that's "peeling off".
Jehovah let out a shrill, inhuman scream. He felt his body and soul being forcibly pulled down from the realm of "God" by an irresistible force.
The sacred robe on his body, which symbolized the supreme divine power and was composed of countless runes of faith, shattered into pieces and turned into the most primitive light of faith, dissipating in the air.
The dazzling divine wheel above his head, which symbolized his divinity, also began to crack, and rays of divine power escaped from it and were absorbed by the golden chains.
"No! I am God! The God of eternal light! You cannot do this to me!" Jehovah struggled frantically, but it was all in vain. Before the law of cause and effect, his so-called "divine power" and "godhood" were nothing more than castles built on the sand, crumbling in an instant at the approach of the tide.
His body was shrinking, his divine power fading. His once majestic face, which had overlooked the heavens, became haggard and aged, ultimately transforming into the appearance of an ordinary old man.
With a thud, Jehovah, the former Lord of Light, fell from the sky, landing heavily on the cold ground of the Holy Land. Not a trace of divine power remained in him, leaving him no different from a mortal in his twilight years.
The divine court collapsed and the godhead was abolished.
The Court of Light, one of the oldest and largest pantheons in the universe, was completely destroyed at this moment.
Ying Zheng took back the code and glanced at the dying "former god" on the ground, without any fluctuation in his eyes.
"Take them back." He gave a light order to Meng Tian's army in the void.
"According to the order!"
Two iron-blooded soldiers came out, picked up Jehovah like a chicken, and dragged him towards the Kingdom of Law.
He will be brought back to the Xianyang Palace, where his crimes will be engraved on the "Monument of Sins of Heaven" as a warning to others.
After doing all this, Ying Zheng's gaze turned to the magic mirror again.
In the magic mirror, on the distribution map of the divine realms of the heavens and myriad worlds, the bright star representing the "Divine Court of Light" has completely extinguished.
Next to it, there are countless stars, some bright and some dim, representing other divine realms, large and small.
Those who control the divine realms probably already know the fate of the Court of Light in some way at this moment.
In the magic mirror, one can clearly see that the borders of those divine realms have strengthened their defenses, and the gazes of countless gods, filled with fear, dread, resentment, and a hint of gloating, are cast towards the ruins that have just experienced a "judgment."
They are watching, watching the next step of this "God of Law".
They were also waiting, waiting for the reactions of other gods, to see if anyone would stand up and form a new "Divine Punishment Alliance."
Ying Zheng watched all this with a sarcastic smile on his face.
"My tour has just begun. The Court of Light is only the beginning."
"Whose turn is next?"
His gaze slowly swept across the magic mirror and finally stopped in the east.
It was an ancient and mysterious divine realm, its chief deity, calling himself "Emperor of Heaven" and ruling over a vast system of immortals and gods under the name "Heavenly Way." Its history was as long and its heritage as any other, and its depth was as profound as that of the Divine Court of Light.
More importantly, this divine realm has always regarded itself as "orthodox" and viewed "mortal kingdoms" like the Qin Dynasty as barbaric.
During the rise of Ying Zheng, they often secretly hindered him and even had many secret collusion with the God of Light.
"Emperor of Heaven... Heavenly Dao..."
Ying Zheng whispered these two names, with fighting spirit rising in his eyes.
"I want to see if your 'Heavenly Way' is greater than my 'Royal Law'!"
He waved his hand, and the image in the magic mirror instantly switched, locking onto the coordinates of the Eastern Divine Realm.
"Meng Tian, convey my order."
"The general is here!"
"The Kingdom of Law, touring the heavens, second stop - the Eastern Divine Realm!"
"Order the three armies to follow me on the Eastern Expedition!"
"As ordered! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long, long live the Emperor!"
Outside the Xianyang Palace, Meng Tian's army, which had already been ready for battle, burst into a war roar like a tsunami.
This time, they are no longer border troops guarding the country, but "Law Masters" who follow the emperor to conquer the heavens!
A huge fleet composed of hundreds of millions of iron-blooded soldiers, countless war beasts, and the "Xianyang Palace" itself floating in the air, tore through the void and headed towards the Eastern Divine Realm.
The flag of the Kingdom of Law, the battle flag with a black background and the golden word Qin as its totem, fluttered in the wind and rustled in the void of the heavens and all worlds.
A more massive and profound confrontation between "divine power" and "royal law" is about to begin in the East.
