I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 643 Entering the True Divine Palace, the Mysterious Great God

The wind chimes rang out beautifully and melodiously, constantly ringing in my ears.

Even if Jiang Chen blocked his hearing, it was useless; he could still hear it.

The sound will directly enter the soul; it is the sound of law, and can be heard without ears.

Like the bloodshed in the "Primordial Realm," it reaches straight to the soul.

Jiang Chen could only fight back with all his might to avoid being affected by it.

I was ambushed once before. Although the other party meant no harm, the feeling of being out of control was really unpleasant.

At that time, Jiang Chen was filled with fighting spirit and only wanted to personally participate in the battle.

If this kind of sound were placed in the military, it could greatly increase the army's combat effectiveness and inspire every soldier to fight with high morale.

However, if used on oneself, it could cause one to lose their mind and even become a puppet who only knows how to fight.

Everything has two sides. Jiang Chen is good at analysis and enjoys analyzing, and he considers all aspects of the problem.

That's why Jiang Chen prefers to stay calm at all times.

Since his debut, very few things have ever made him panic.

The closer you get to the Tianshan Divine Palace, the louder the sound of the wind chimes becomes.

However, Jiang Chen knew that although this wind chime sound carried laws, as long as your will was strong enough, even a level 40 person could withstand it.

The owner of the wind chimes meant no harm.

A kilometer is not a long distance for Jiang Chen.

In the blink of an eye, we reached the summit. Standing atop the peak, we could see the Heavenly Palace even more clearly.

This is a large palace with a diameter of over 1,000 meters, and its exquisite carvings can be seen from afar.

The wind and snow became the best cleaners, sweeping the palace clean and spotless.

The entire palace is connected to the mountain peak by only one corner, and 99% of its parts are suspended in the air, like a palace in the sky.

Jiang Chen walked over with curiosity and saw a plaque hanging on the gate of the Divine Palace with the words "Tianshan" written on it.

It is the script of the Divine Dragon Empire.

When Jiang Chen saw the words "Tianshan," he realized that this was a product of the present era.

Written evidence is the best proof.

Jiang Chen looked at the two characters and sensed the aura emanating from them.

Even after a long period of time, the aura emanating from it remains strong.

"The text carries a strong divine aura; it belongs to a powerful deity."

"It is far more powerful than the God of Thunder, and should be a higher deity."

"According to records, there were many high gods a long time ago, but they all disappeared without a trace for some unknown reason."

There are not many high-ranking deities recorded, such as the God of Blood and the God of Life.

There are many more deities not listed in the records.

The God of the Stars wasn't in the data, but Jiang Chen guessed that the God of the Stars shouldn't be weak either, based on the countless meteorites that had been falling on the Meteor Continent over the years.

The God of Blood has vanished, even his weapon is gone; he must have perished.

The same is true of the god of life; in fact, its weapon sparked a world-ending war.

The current master of the Heavenly Mountain Divine Palace should also be a high-ranking deity. The wind chimes are the best evidence; the power of laws cannot be faked.

"What exactly happened at that time?"

I really want to know!

This problem had been troubling Jiang Chen for many days. Without hesitation, Jiang Chen walked towards the gate.

He was neither afraid nor worried.

Worrying and being afraid are useless; he only has two choices now.

There are two options: one is to enter the Heavenly Mountain Divine Palace, and the other is to leave.

Having come this far, how could I possibly be willing to leave now?

With Antares's dragon scales in hand, he believed there were few places in the world where he could be trapped and killed.

At worst, I can activate the dragon scales and escape.

The shrine gates opened automatically, welcoming it inside as if greeting a guest.

The palace was even more spacious than it appeared from the outside. Inside the palace was a huge garden planted with many trees.

These trees swayed in the wind and snow.

Strangely, no matter how much snow falls, it doesn't leave any marks on them.

Every corner of the palace was exceptionally clean.

The garden is laid out in a very orderly manner, neat and beautiful.

"This is a deity who loves cleanliness, even to the point of being obsessive-compulsive."

"At the same time, this deity is very likely to be a woman."

The sound of the wind chimes is louder here.

A gust of wind blew by, and the tinkling and clanging sounds continued.

Jiang Chen noticed that wind chimes were hanging everywhere in the garden.

Whether it's on the trees or in every corner.

The key point is that the sounds of these wind chimes, when combined, do not sound chaotic at all.

The sound of the wind chimes now is just the purest sound of wind chimes, no longer possessing that power of law that reaches the soul.

Jiang Chen became even more certain of his guess: this must be a female deity, and a female deity with obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness who also likes wind chimes.

Just as he was thinking this, a ray of light shone down, transforming the entire garden into a magnificent sight.

Amidst the light, a man in a long robe slowly walked towards them.

Jiang Chen was stunned; he had guessed wrong.

It turned out to be a man.

Jiang Chen realized that the man was not his true form, but rather a composite of elements.

However, there is no doubt that he is a deity, and he exudes an aura unique to gods.

"Hello, a five-star divine general of the human race!" The deity was very polite to Jiang Chen, immediately recognizing Jiang Chen's identity as a five-star divine general, which surprised Jiang Chen somewhat. He wasn't wearing his soldier's badge on his shoulder; how did the other party know?

The deity continued, “Don’t be surprised. I have fought alongside many of your human race’s five-star generals and am very familiar with their aura.”

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Tianshan, and I am a great god of the Tianshan Mountains."

Jiang Chen was truly shocked this time.

They stared at him in utter astonishment; he was actually a master.

A Great God is a being one level higher than a High God, equivalent to a near-god among humans.

I never expected that there would be such a being in the Heavenly Mountain Divine Palace. I underestimated him.

Jiang Chen did not doubt the other party's identity and said, "Human race, five-star divine general Jiang Chen greets the Great God of Tianshan."

He suddenly gestured for you to enter, "My true form is still asleep, and there's not much to offer you here. I'll just show you around the shrine, please don't mind."

Jiang Chen dared not mind, as he still had many questions he wanted to ask the Heavenly Mountain God.

I don't care if your true form is asleep, as long as you can speak, that's enough.

However, Jiang Chen did not speak directly. The two were not familiar with each other yet, and more importantly, he had not yet figured out the other's temperament.

It's not a good idea to speak rashly.

The Great God of Tianshan led Jiang Chen toward the interior of the divine palace, saying, "Your strength is beyond my expectations."

Jiang Chen replied modestly, "My strength is nothing special."

The Great God of Tianshan shook his head. "No, even back in those days, you would have been one of the most outstanding individuals."

Jiang Chen pondered which year the man was referring to. He guessed it was a long time ago.

It has been at least a thousand years.

Perhaps those years were buried by time.

The Great God of Tianshan continued, "In our time, geniuses emerged in great numbers. As long as you weren't an idiot, you could become a top professional. Those with slightly better aptitude could become god-level. From job change to god-level, the fastest only needed one or two years."

Jiang Chen listened as if to a myth, learning that it would only take one or two years to go from job advancement to god-level.

Is this a joke?

"How could it be so fast!" Jiang Chen was somewhat incredulous.

The Great God of Tianshan chuckled, “There is a price to pay. We have paid far too much for this, and the world has paid far too much.”

"The cost is so high that it is almost unbearable."

"But you can't do it without paying a price." Jiang Chen listened silently, knowing that the price would be terrifying and unimaginable.

The Great God of Tianshan suddenly stopped, looked at the snow falling from the sky, and sighed deeply, "But it was all worth it!"

A gentle breeze blows, and the melodious sound of wind chimes rings out once again.

The Great God of Tianshan laughed, "Isn't it beautiful?"

Jiang Chen nodded. "It's a beautiful piece of music."

He spoke the truth and was very sincere.

The Great God of Tianshan agreed with Jiang Chen, "It is indeed very beautiful. I have been listening to it for so many years and I have never gotten tired of it."

"Did you just think that I should be a woman?"

Jiang Chen's lips twitched, but he didn't respond.

You can't reply to that; you might offend someone if you say it wrong.

The Great God of Tianshan said, "It's alright, everyone would think that way."

"My wife decorated the garden and hung the wind chimes. She loves wind chimes, she really loves them."

"It's a pity she can no longer hear it."

At this point, the Great God of Tianshan sighed again.

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and then asked cautiously, "That great battle back then was very brutal, wasn't it?"

The Great God of Tianshan turned to look at Jiang Chen, and after a moment, said, "It seems you know something."

“I know you have many questions, including about the formation in the Tianshan Mountains.”

"No doubt about it, I noticed you from the very first day you entered the instance."

“I even saw you kill the Snow God of Tianshan.”

"However, I still can't tell you right now."

Jiang Chen asked, "Is it because I'm still too weak?"

The Great God of Tianshan nodded. "You have great talent, but you're not strong enough yet." "Then when will I be qualified to know?"

"Wait until you can control a law."

Jiang Chen felt a chill run down his spine and slowly uttered four words: "Half-step Godhood!"
