CHAPTER 58: CHAPTER 55: THE JUDGMENT OF THE LONGEVITY GOD, THE HARSHEST PUNISHMENT!

"God, are we truly good children?"

Three giants squatted down, forming three corners around the Cangwu Tree, their expressions cautious.

"Yes."

The Prophet spoke softly.

In Liu Jun’s eyes, these three indeed were good children.

Agni and Valuna.

If these two, after regaining consciousness, had any malicious thoughts and did not surrender, starting to resist, what would happen?

Even without merging with the two Divine Objects, merely borrowing from their divine power would be incredibly troublesome.

One might eventually, even if not becoming the planet’s core, absorb the heat from all kinds of volcanoes, resulting in a colossal disaster.

The other might pollute water sources, turning rivers and lakes into a series of jelly mushrooms, and the world, being polluted, would become unimaginable.

And the final third giant, Vedamo, if he did not bravely stand up, rush into the palace where snoring sounds blew up a massive storm, acquire the Wind Divine Object, to stop the war...

Even secretly taking away the Divine Wind Ear to do evil could result in a third kind of disaster on this land!

In summary.

During this process, if any one of the three had a malicious thought, the disaster might explode again to an uncontrollable degree.

The "My World" that Liu Jun built would face destruction once more.

But during this process, they all showed immense goodness, holding fast to their conscience.

Still the most beautiful butterflies.

In today’s era where power is supreme in mythology, even the beings of this era must say to the three of you:

"Thank you for your mercy not to kill."

And at this moment, they held three Divine Objects that could threaten the gods, yet they requested forgiveness from a small butterfly.

Unlike the Titans, Giant Dragons, Angels, Spirits, and other ancestors with only one left brain, who crazily rushed over to kill deities.

Liu Jun felt deeply gratified.

He thought to himself:

"Although it seems this Divine Trial has ended quickly, the entire process was extremely perilous."

"Still, my education is excellent!"

"Possessing the vitality and spirit of the Butterfly Race, they are all good mushrooms."

It’s hard to imagine, if I didn’t teach them character from the beginning, and the Truth Angels during the Wisdom Disaster were bad... the giants during the Water and Fire Disaster were bad, what would it turn into.

It might be a story on another world line.

And that world line, would surely be filled with darkness, terror, and distortion.

Liu Jun pondered for a moment, his voice blowing through the Cangwu Tree like a gentle breeze, falling into the ears of the giants.

"Without any accidents, this time the disaster of the Divine Trial lasted only three days and ended, provided you choose to hand over the Divine Objects, rather than choose to use them for evil."

Upon hearing this, Agni and Valuna spoke in unison:

"Great Prophet, you are the origin of longevity, you are the epitome of holiness."

"Your wisdom is infinite, your power is boundless."

"Grant us life, grant us wisdom, under your protection the Butterfly Race survives and thrives."

They were extremely fervent, like the most devout pilgrims,

"How could we dare commit blasphemy? We are willing to hand over these Divine Objects and ask for divine punishment."

As the words fell, two small mushrooms flew into the Divine Hall, landing in Liu Jun’s hands.

One mushroom seemed surrounded by flames.

Another mushroom resembled a water-ball jelly.

Liu Jun casually placed the items beside the divine seat, then looked at the last giant, "What about you?"

"Willing to return the Divine Object!"

Vedamo quickly replied.

"I will return the items to Xiangtuo Mo." Liu Jun paused slightly, his gaze once again falling on the three giants.

Xiangtuo Mo now perpetually drowsy, can only be judged by myself for this trial and punishment.

The Prophet’s voice became dignified and heavy, like an immense and boundless mountain,

"Agni, Valuna, your hearts are good, but you did bad things, committing crimes that led to the death of countless people and the destruction of many tribes."

"I am guilty." Agni and Valuna lowered their heads, accepting the statement.

"Vedamo, your heart is good, yet you committed the gravest crime, as the Holy Guard Leader, taking advantage of Xiangtuo Mo’s nap, stole the God’s treasure."

"I am guilty." Vedamo also lowered his head, silent.

"No law can establish a nation, you may have your reasons but must accept punishment."

"Then..."

The Prophet paused, kicking the ball back to them:

"What do you think should be your punishment?"

"Next, you must choose the punishment you believe you deserve according to your true intentions."

The God of Longevity’s voice was extremely gentle, carrying benevolence and forgiveness.

Agni and Valuna seemed to have an implicit understanding after internal struggle, surprisingly saying in unison: "We should die."

"We killed countless tribesmen, and compatriots, we wish to pay with our lives."

"But please bury us together."

Originally, they were themselves.

Now, they become him and her.

They are truly a pair of lovers in this era.

The Prophet contemplated for a moment, then said faintly:

"Since you want to be together, I will not let you have your wish, I will separate you across the ends of the world as your punishment."

Ah!

Agni and Valuna’s expressions were like struck by lightning, crestfallen and full of despair.

Liu Jun looked at Vedamo beside him: "What do you believe should be your punishment?"

Vedamo also had his head lowered, revealing a hint of determination, "I offended the gods on the mountain, betrayed Xiangtuo Mo’s trust, should seek forgiveness through death."

The God of Longevity said: "Since you wish to die, I will not let you have your wish, you will be infinitely close to death but unable to enter it, this is your punishment!"

Ah!

Vedamo also began to droop, the divine punishment sounded terrifying.

The Phoenix Emperor, Truth Angels, and these divine spirits saw how loyal, brave, and kind these three giants were.

All chose to redeem their sins through death, and were slightly moved.

However, the final decision was made by the Prophet.

They respected all of the Prophet’s decisions.

He is the Sage leading the Butterfly Race’s civilization, rising from the era of beast caves, enduring the initial harsh winters, he made no mistakes along the path.

Though the Prophet’s current words were extremely cruel and cold, targeting their weaknesses for punishment.

But, it was deserved!

"I will imprison you two lovers at the ends of the world."

His voice was like thunder, majestic to the extreme, leaving no room for dissent.

"Divine Artifacts aren’t easily forged, even Xiangtuo Mo researched for over two hundred years to perfectly create the three Divine Artifacts."

"I must punish you to create two Divine Artifacts corresponding to water and fire; that will be the time you escape the cage."

"If you can’t create the Divine Artifacts, then integrate the Divine Objects into your bodies to become new gods; you can reunite."

"Otherwise, only on the day when the new moon rises every thirty-six years, will you be able to cross the ends of the world and meet at the newly-formed Azure Rope Milk Sea."

"At the moment of reunion, I allow you to perform a biological harmony; creating all living things in the Azure Rope Milk Sea."

"They are your many children born from you."

Agni and Valuna, the two giants, widened their eyes, glancing at each other before lowering their heads again with heartfelt acceptance.

Both fear and are moved.

Afraid that this is indeed a punishment harder to bear than death, unable to meet whenever they want, being isolated at the ends of the world.

Moved by the fact that God trusts them so much, entrusting them with the two Divine Objects to make Divine Artifacts, or integrate them and become new gods.

At this moment, they wholeheartedly surrendered!

Agni and Valuna said in unison, "If this is your wish, we must obey!"
