In ancient times, he became a god in the mountains.

[There is a duplication~Modify it tomorrow~

I'm very busy recently~ I will resume normal updates tomorrow]

[Host, you don't need to go through the trouble of condensing the spiritual energy phantom. You can bind the Sun and Moon Golden Plate to the Golden Sacred Palace, so that the Golden Sacred Palace can be materialized in every place.]

Gu Yuexi stopped and said, "It has such an effect. It's really a good treasure. No wonder it costs hundreds of thousands of faith points."

She followed the system's instructions to bind the Golden Sacred Palace to the Sun-Moon Golden Plate. An imprint of a palace immediately appeared on the red orb in the center of the Sun-Moon Golden Plate. The spiritual power on the orb meandered directly to the island.

Gu Yuexi looked at the water mirror. The scene in the water mirror kept changing. An endless sea and a lonely island appeared.

She suddenly found a question.

"The island shown on the Sun and Moon Golden Plate is not far from the Golden Sacred Mountains, but the Golden Sacred Mountains are located in the northwest of Daxia. There is no ocean here. Have I arrived in a different dimension?"

[Host guessed correctly]

[Originally, a man who had done good deeds for ten generations was buried here. His virtues were transformed into this small space, and his soul was suppressed on the island and could not continue to reincarnate. In order to strengthen itself, this small space built an illusory scene on the island to lure innocent people to the island. After these people died, it would absorb their souls.]

[The sea that the host sees is not the real sea, but is made up of the souls of those who died unjustly]

[As long as the host absorbs the power of merit here, he can save these dead souls]

"The power of merit?" Gu Yuexi asked in surprise: "This is a good thing."

She adjusted the image in the water mirror to the small island on the sea.

The island is full of greenery, with lush vegetation, bright peach blossoms, and occasional birds flying by. It is quiet and peaceful, like a fairyland. But all this is fake. It is a trap set by this space to devour human lives.

After three years of drought, what people most wanted was to find a glimmer of hope for survival. It is conceivable how many lives were lost here in three years.

Qinyang County, outside the county town

Zhang Xiuxuan, Zhang Goudan and his group traveled through mountains and rivers for almost half a year before they arrived in Qinyang County.

"Hurry up, everyone. Just hold on for another month or two, and we can go home."

Zhang Xiuxuan, Zhang Goudan and others were ordered to go to Jinsheng Mountains to investigate the situation. His Majesty said that a demon who pretended to be a god and fooled the people appeared in Jinsheng Mountains. They all grew up at the foot of Qihuang Mountain, so His Majesty sent them to find out whether the rumor was true or not.

"Tell me, is what His Majesty said true? Has a great demon really appeared in the Golden Holy Mountains and entered the world to deceive the people?"

"We asked around on the way here. Many people said that the rain that solved the drought was sent by a god. The god's body was so huge that it blocked out the sky. They don't look like they are lying," said Zhang Goudan.

"Who knows? We live at the foot of Qihuang Mountain, which is close to Jinsheng Mountain Range. I have never seen any monsters in my life." said the dark-looking young man. His name is Zhang Xiaoqi. Like Zhang Goudan and the others, he grew up in Taohua Village.

Zhang Goudan sighed, his face full of worry: "When I left, my grandmother and mother cried so hard that they couldn't stop crying. Gousheng and Erya were still so young, and I don't know if they survived the drought."

The voice couldn't help but choke up.

"Alas..." Zhang Xiuxuan sighed, "My father has eye problems, and my mother supports the family. I hope they are safe and sound."

If it was really a bit unexpected, Zhang Xiuxuan could accept it.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters may bring relief to you if you die early.

This world is so torturous!

Zhang Xiaoqi lay down: "Rest first. No matter what, your majesty's order is the most important."

Several people slept in their clothes, and the Bodhisattva covered in spider webs looked at them compassionately.

In the middle of the night, there were suddenly the sounds of waves crashing past.

Some people thought they were dreaming.

"Uncle Xiuxuan, Goudan, Ping'an, Eighteen... Don't sleep anymore, get up quickly, something big has happened!" Zhang Xiaoqi, who was on guard, suddenly screamed a few times and woke them up.

Everyone quickly got up and took a look, and were dumbfounded!

The waves crashed against the shore, and they lay on the sand by the sea, their clothes wet by the sea water.

"This, this, this..." Zhang Goudan was stunned.

Zhang Xiuxuan tasted the water in his hand and immediately spit it out: "This is all sea water, how did we get to this place!"

"Could it be that... the ruined temple... the ruined temple is not clean?" Zhou Ping'an, the most timid among the few people, trembled and his face was as pale as paper.

"Yes, this temple is definitely dirty. We must have been brought here by some demon or monster. By the way, what kind of place is this? We have already arrived in Qinyang County. There is no sea around Qinyang County. It's too strange."

Everyone was very nervous and it took them a long time to accept the fact. In order to go back, they started looking for a way out on the island.

Half a day has passed and nothing has been found!

"We can't go back. We are on an island, surrounded by sea water on all sides." Zhou Ping'an was a little overwhelmed.

Zhang Xiuxuan frowned. "We really have no choice but to cut down the wood on the island and make our own rafts. Oh, what on earth is going on? We were moved to another place without even noticing. It's so strange."

"Yes, let's quickly find a way to cut wood and make a raft, otherwise we will die outside when His Majesty blames us. I'm afraid His Majesty will think we are deserters and cause our families to suffer."

They are carrying the emperor's orders and cannot die outside.

No one here has ever made a raft, but there is no choice but to try it.

The first step is logging!

They had no tools for felling trees, so they picked up some stones, sharpened them into blades, and took them to the trees to try them out.

“This tree is fake!!”

The originally tall trees turned into ashes when they were cut down.

Everyone gasped.

The timid Zhou Ping'an turned pale in an instant.

eccentric!

So weird!

What the hell is this place?

After struggling for a long time, everyone sat on the ground in a daze. They were very hungry, but fortunately they were used to being hungry. Seeing that there were abundant wild fruits on the island, several people decided to pick some.

Zhang Goudan stopped them, saying, "This place is too weird. The trees are fake, and maybe the fruit is fake too. Even if it's real, we wouldn't dare eat it. In such a weird place, the fruit might be poisonous."

Several people looked pale.

"What should we do? We have the emperor's order. If we don't go back, we will be regarded as deserters. His Majesty will be furious. If our family members are still alive, they will definitely be punished by his majesty. We have finally survived the drought, and if they are implicated by us, then... then... I will not be able to rest in peace even if I die!" Zhang Xiaoqi cried loudly.

On the deserted island, several people searched for several days but could not find a way to leave.

Hunger, the temperature difference between day and night, and the emperor's orders were like three huge mountains pressing down on them.

"Are we going to die in this strange place?"

After seven days and seven nights, the few people had no choice but to lie on the sand and wait for death.

These past few days, they were desperate, miserable, and anxious, and were absolutely certain that they really couldn't leave this strange island.

Gu Yuexi is absorbing the power of merit in this space.

The Golden Holy Palace is located on the sea surface, like a mysterious gem. Above the gem, a huge shadow is sitting cross-legged.

Like a god!

The power of merit from all directions surged towards her.

Suddenly, she noticed several cries coming from the originally deserted island.
