Shang Shixu, who was trapped on the top of the tower, closed his eyes, his consciousness gradually became blurred, and he finally fell into a deep sleep.

In her dreams, she seemed to be in a mysterious and ancient world.

"Zhou Shen Shixu drank alcohol while on duty and harmed lives, causing the imbalance of heaven and earth and numerous disasters. Now that he has committed this crime, the Emperor of Heaven has issued an order to restrain his soul and keep it in the Immortal Locking Tower, and to demote his body to the lower world to suffer the pain of reincarnation to atone for his sins."

As the solemn verdict sounded, Shi Xu in the picture was filled with fear and grievance. She tried desperately to explain, but all her words were like a stone sinking into the sea and had no effect.

In the end, Shi Xu could only watch helplessly as her soul was forcibly thrown into the Locking Immortal Tower, while her body was banished to the mortal world to endure all kinds of suffering in the world.

Suddenly, Shang Shixu opened her eyes abruptly and woke up from a nightmare. She found herself still on the top of the tower, and the restraints on her body made her feel extremely painful.

Ignoring the pain in her body, she struggled with all her strength and finally succeeded in breaking free from the restraints.

However, just as she jumped off the tower, she was surprised to find that the woman had disappeared without a trace.

"What is going on?" Shang Shixu murmured to himself, his heart full of confusion and anxiety.

She tried hard to recall the nightmare she had just experienced, especially the woman in the dream who looked exactly like her. Could that really be her past life?

"Shixu?" Coincidentally, Xiyue also came in at this moment, looked at Shang Shixu who was in a daze, and called out softly.

Shang Shixu turned around, looked at Xiyue behind him, and asked in confusion: "Sister, why did you come in too?"

"Let's not talk about this for now. I was not allowed to enter the tower before, but I just rushed in. The interior of the Immortal Locking Tower is like a maze. I wandered around on each floor for a long time before I got here. Why are you standing here in a daze?" Xiyue asked.

Shang Shixu looked confused and said thoughtfully: "Sister, do you know the God of the Universe?"

"God of Zeus?" Xiyue frowned slightly and thought seriously for a moment.

Shang Shixu nodded repeatedly and asked, "Yes, Zeus!"

"I seem to have heard something about it. Thirty thousand years ago, when the Emperor of Heaven got married, the goddess of the universe who was in charge of the alternation of day and night fell into a deep sleep because she drank too much of Qianlizui. She missed the alternation of day and night and caused great suffering to all living beings in the world. As a result, she was banished to the mortal world.

I have only heard a few words from my mother. After all, I am only 500 years old, so what I know is really limited." Xiyue replied.

Shang Shixu seemed to understand: "So that's how it is."

"Why do you suddenly mention her?" Xiyue asked curiously.

Shang Shixu shook his head: "Sister, if I say that Zeus is my previous life, would you believe it?"

Xiyue's eyes widened in disbelief. "How is this possible? How could you be the God of the Universe? I also heard that the God of the Universe was banished to the lower world, and his spirit was imprisoned, so it was impossible for him to practice. Your magic power is not low either, so you can't be the God of the Universe!"

Shang Shixu smiled bitterly, "I also hope that this is all just a coincidence. I was trapped on the top of the tower just now, and when I was unconscious, I dreamed of the scene where Zeus was demoted, and I became Zeus in my dream."

Xiyue held Shang Shixu's hand and comforted him, "Maybe there is some misunderstanding. In any case, let's leave here first."

The two carefully searched for the exit, struggling through the intricate, maze-like roads. Suddenly, a strange and dazzling light flashed not far ahead, instantly attracting their attention.

Driven by curiosity, they walked forward quickly to find out what was going on. As they got closer, the light gradually became clearer, and a simple and elegant guqin was vaguely visible in the light. The body of the guqin was shining with mysterious patterns, as if it contained endless spiritual power.

"This ancient zither... isn't it the legendary Lingyinzither? It seems to be the magic instrument of the god of the universe! I have seen related records in the encyclopedia of magic instruments in the fairy world." Xiyue said in surprise.

After hearing this, Shang Shixu couldn't help but reveal a look of curiosity. She slowly walked forward, stretched out her finger and gently touched the Lingyinqin. In an instant, the Lingyinqin made a loud sound, the sound was crisp and pleasant, echoing throughout the space.

Seeing this, Xiyue's eyes widened: "The magic weapon recognizes its master! Could it be that... you are really the previous life of the God of the Universe?"

Shang Shixu's heart moved slightly, and an indescribable feeling surged in her heart. She took a deep breath, slowly stretched out her hand, and gently plucked the strings again.

Suddenly, a melodious and beautiful piano sound like the sound of nature resounded all around, and the lingering sound never stopped in the ears.

At the same time, the surrounding walls, which had been silent and motionless, began to tremble slightly, and a narrow and dark passage gradually appeared.

"It seems that we can find a way out here." Xiyue said happily.

Shang Shixu nodded in agreement, then she carefully picked up the guqin and turned to walk towards the passage. Xiyue followed closely behind her, and the two walked out of the Immortal Locking Tower side by side.

"The leader is coming out!"

With a loud shout filled with surprise and excitement, the crowd suddenly became agitated.

Shang Qianyue couldn't hold back his inner anxiety and ran away like an arrow.

He came to Shang Shixu's side, looked him up and down carefully, his eyes full of concern, even his voice trembling a little: "Xu'er, are you okay? You are not hurt?"

Shang Shixu shook his head gently, smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, second brother, I'm fine."

At this time, Lin Luoshui came forward and asked curiously: "Master, what is hidden in the tower?"

Shang Shixu frowned and said solemnly: "In fact, there is nothing special about it, but the origin of this tower is unknown, and there may be potential risks. Just in case, I plan to use magic to seal it, and warn other disciples not to get close to this Immortal Locking Tower."

"Yes!"

Shang Shixu turned around and left silently, returning to the quiet study that belonged to her.

As soon as she entered the room, her eyes involuntarily fell on the Lingyinqin quietly placed on the desk. As if attracted by an invisible force, she gradually immersed herself in her own thoughts.

"Am I the God of the Universe..." Shang Shixu muttered to himself, his eyes full of doubt and confusion. If she is really the legendary God of the Universe as Xiyue said, then according to common sense, I should not be able to continue practicing. But how can I explain all this?"

Just when Shang Shixu was frowning and thinking hard but still couldn't figure it out, there was a gentle knock on the door.

Although the voice was not loud, it was very clear in the quiet room. Then, Xiyue's gentle and familiar voice came: "Sister Shixu, are you there?"

Shang Shixu was originally immersed in his own thoughts and was startled by the sudden voice.

She suddenly came to her senses, stood up quickly, walked to the door quickly, and then gently opened the door. When she saw Xiyue standing at the door, she showed a slightly surprised smile on her face: "Sister Xiyue, why are you here? Please come in!"

Xiyue walked into the room with a smile. Shang Shixu warmly invited her to sit down. The two sat opposite each other and began to talk.

"I see that you look depressed. Are you still thinking about Zeus?" Xiyue asked with concern.

Shang Shixu nodded and replied in a heavy tone: "Yeah, yes, there are so many and complicated legends about Zeus that the more I think about it, the more confused I get."

Xiyue comforted her and said, "You don't have to worry too much. The Queen's birthday is coming soon. When the time comes, I will go to the fairyland with my father and mother to celebrate the Queen's birthday. I can also take this opportunity to look up some information about the God of the Universe to see if I can find some clues to figure out what is going on."

After hearing Xiyue's words, Shang Shixu felt a surge of gratitude in his heart.

She held Xiyue's hand tightly and said sincerely, "Thank you very much, Sister Xiyue."

Xiyue smiled and patted Shang Shixu's hand, saying, "Why are you being so polite to me?"

"But isn't sister going to hide from Qingqiu's people?"

"It's okay. It's been such a long time. If I don't go back now, I will never have the chance to go back." Xiyue said nonchalantly.
