Chapter 722: Chapter 720 Moon God Chapter 722: Chapter 720 Moon God In the Land of Starlight Eternal, there are three continents, surrounded by an endless stormy ocean, and the children of the forest are scattered throughout the world.

This includes tribes of the forest children deep within the ocean.

To be precise, “children of the forest” isn’t a general term; “children of the star” is, and “children of the forest” only refers to those residing in the forests.

The children of the star vary in every region, their names and physical structures differ. Those in the forest are the closest in appearance to humans, with the exception of their ears, and hardly differ from Russell in any other detail.

Meanwhile, the children of the star in the deserts are known as the sand children, who have the upper body of a human and the lower body of a snake, capable of burrowing through sand.

The ocean children of the star have the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish.

The children of the star in the polar ice and snow are called snow children, covered in snow-colored fur.

The children of the star surviving in dark caves are known as dark children, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a spider.

The children of the star on the vast plains are called children of the wind, possessing the upper body of a human and the body of a horse.

All these children of the star also bear civilization and intelligence.

Some children of the star even dwell near lava fields, known as fire children, essentially a group of wild beasts. Those living in swamps, known as marsh children, are indistinguishable from the local lizards and catfish.

There are many more variations, too numerous to count.

Between the many tribes of the children of the star, wars often erupt, but thousands, even tens of thousands of years ago, the Moon God descended, swiftly pacifying all the tribes with faith, maintaining peace for tens of thousands of years.

Yet, perhaps due to too much peace and lack of motivation for development, the civilization level of the children of the star has not advanced.

Particularly since the envoys of the Moon God, the demigods, have increased and the tribes no longer need to develop.

Every tribe of the children of the star has its own living area, neither interfering with each other, as days and months repeat in cycles.

“The children of the star live long lives; we forest children typically live over five hundred years,” Queen Aisala introduces the situation of the children of the star to Russell at the banquet, “Those who live the longest can even reach a thousand years.”

“Oh, may I ask how old you are this year, Your Majesty?” Russell curiously asked.

Queen Aisala pondered for a moment before smiling in reply, “I was born roughly three hundred and fifty years ago, under the World Tree.”

“Hmm!” Russell exclaimed in amazement.

Queen Aisala then asked in return, “How old are you this year, Your Majesty Russell?”

“Well… one hundred seventy-four,” Russell revealed a number, which included the over one hundred thirty years of his slumber, resulting in his actual age, but he was truly only thirty-four years old.

He paused.

Amidst Aisala’s surprised expression, Russell continued: “We humans are not immortal; a hundred years is already a rarity, only a few strong individuals can break the shackles and achieve lifespans of two hundred or even three hundred years.”

“Then, Your Majesty Russell, aren’t you…”

Russell simply smiled faintly: “I am different, I have become an immortal Divine Spirit, my life is eternal like the heavens!”

Theoretically, he has become the embodiment of the rules of Amber Dreamland; as long as Amber Dreamland exists, he will remain immortal.

“I see,” Queen Aisala nodded.

She then introduced the lifespans of other children of the star; the ocean children from the deep sea live the longest, some even up to three thousand years; next are the forest children, generally living five hundred years, with the longest reaching a thousand years.

The snow children, dark children, and others, live around three to four hundred years.

The shortest-lived are the children of the wind and sand children, only having lifespans of two hundred years.

After enjoying a serene banquet with Queen Aisala, during a casual conversation, a bright moon rose in the sky.

As the moon rose, the Moon God descended.

The energetic Queen Aisala suddenly became drowsy, lying on the wicker chair as if asleep.

Next moment.

Queen Aisala opened her eyes, which were previously as blue and pure as the sky, began to flicker with a cold, white glow, and her entire being seemed to be coated with a layer of chilly moonlight, making her appear ethereal and transcendent.

“His Majesty Russell.” Queen Aisala’s tone had also changed, cold like the dew of an autumn day.

Russell already knew the way the Moon God descended, so he was not surprised. He simply asked, “Is it the Moon God?”

“Yes.”

“It’s an honor to meet you, Moon God, well, perhaps not in person, as it seems you are not in the material realm of the Land of Starlight Eternal,” Russell said. The existence of the Moon God was like that of the Dreamscape Ancient Dragon in relation to Amber Dreamland.

Neither could appear in the real world, but could project themselves in other ways.

“I am at the source of moonlight. Where the moonlight falls, there I exist,” the Moon God spoke through Queen Aisala in a somewhat mystical manner.

“On the moon?”

“No, the moon is merely the fountain of my power, not my true existence,” replied the Moon God. “I wonder, His Majesty Russell, can you understand this?”

“I understand,” Russell nodded. “To me, Moon God, you have become an embodiment of rules, just like myself; I too am an embodiment of rules. Do you see the Little Fire Dragon on my shoulder? Its name is Shadowflame and it also embodies rules.”

“Shadowflame…” The Moon God seemed slightly perplexed.

The Little Fire Dragon immediately opened its mouth and emitted bubbling Magic Power dragon language. Russell translated, “Shadowflame is greeting you. It is the embodiment of the Flame Rules, but the rule we are integrated with is Amber Dreamland.”

“Amber Dreamland?”

“That is precisely why I have come to the Land of Starlight Eternal. I am here to invite you, Moon God, to join us in building Amber Dreamland together and escape the fate of Silent Annihilation.”

Russell candidly stated his purpose: “I believe, Moon God, you have already felt that the Magic Power of the Land of Starlight Eternal is dissipating, and the world is withering.”

The Moon God remained silent.

Evidently agreeing with what Russell had said, the Land of Starlight Eternal was indeed in peril. As the Moon God, although unable to see the World Tree, He could feel the Origin Power waning after the leaves had fallen off.

After a moment, the Moon God looked up earnestly at Russell: “Then, what is the cost?”

“Cost?” Russell smiled. Everything had gone smoothly so far; this Sect Hierarch of the One God Sect seemed not as rigid and exclusionary as imagined, “It’s not really a cost, merely a pooling of everyone’s strength.”

Presently.

Russell explained the history of the Dragon Sleep Continent and the origin of Amber Dreamland, continuing, “The Frost Star Annihilation showed me the only hope lies in developing Amber Dreamland, reshaping a World Tree!”

Pausing briefly, he continued, “Our worlds are different, but if we trace back to the origin, we are all part of the World Tree’s leaf worlds, sharing the same Origin Power, just developed differently on various planets.”

As he spoke, a spark ignited on Russell’s fingertip: “You see, I have just arrived in the Land of Starlight Eternal and have already mastered the local Magic Power. Soon, Shadowflame and I will grasp the Flame Rules here!”

Burbling, the Little Fire Dragon jumped, sparks soaring across the hall, a tangible manifestation of the rules.

Naturally, the Moon God could see the underlying rules through these sparks.

“What will become of the Land of Starlight Eternal if I join Amber Dreamland?” the Moon God voiced His concern.

“Once the Origin Power is fully extracted, this planet will naturally meet its Silent Annihilation. However, annihilation is not destruction; once the planet stabilizes, new life forms will emerge, just without Magic Power,” Russell spoke quickly, “As for the current beings, they can choose to enter Amber Dreamland en masse… Amber Dreamland is vastly spacious, with ample land and oceans to accommodate more populations.”

The Moon God did not agree immediately.

He asked Russell many questions and finally said, “I wish to visit Amber Dreamland, to see this future world you speak of.”

“You are most welcome. However, Moon God, if you cannot step out from the rules, then you won’t be able to visit Amber Dreamland in person… unless you actively merge with Amber Dreamland, or the Amber Great Tree is transplanted to the Land of Starlight Eternal.”

But that also meant no turning back.

The Moon God shook His head: “I do not need to go there in person. Aisala, she is my subject and my eyes.”

“Then, I shall take Aisala on a visit,” Russell nodded in agreement.
