Chapter 789
Brunhilda pulled her hand away after torturing Li Yunmu for a long time, then gave him an ordinary glance and coldly ordered the half-kneeling gods on the ground to retreat .
When the two of them left toward the southern part of the Land of Ice, the gods on the mountain peak stood up and pulled out the muscular god buried under the snow . They then awkwardly looked at the region where the snowstorm had passed . Regardless of whether it were the mountain rivers or glaciers, everything had vanished . Only a several hundred meter wide ravine was left in the snowstorm's wake .
"Return to where?" one of the gods mumbled .
Originally, they had joined together to catch the culprit who had released the snowstorm, but who knew that the criminal who unleashed this divine technique was surprisingly the princess of Scandinavia .
So they could only suffer in silence .
In the south of the Land of Ice, two figures appeared in mid air, walking at a slow pace .
If someone carefully observed them, they would notice that the two were husband and wide, walking hand in hand toward the southern field's Lanlou while talking and laughing .
The two were, of course, Li Yunmu and Brunhilda . After having a quarrel, the feelings they shared had become even deeper . Their movement speed was quite slow since they strolled through the clouds during daytime and slept together in a tent during the night, which left them both extremely satisfied .
When the system saw their situation after reconciling, it felt sour in its heart . Every day the two of them enjoyed the pleasures of intimacy, it would shout some provoking sentences in Li Yunmu's brain .
Like that, the autumn days passed slowly, and the two people finally arrived at the border between the Land of Ice and Lanlou known as Sky Curtain . It represented a clear boundary between the two regions . From the ground, a curtain of water kept flying up into the sky and disappearing .
Some gods had tried to investigate the water curtain which rose to the sky from the ground since it was very mystical . All they found out was that the Sky Curtain was casually created by the True God, so it could be said to have existed for a very long time .
When Li Yunmu looked at the water curtain rising into the sky, he couldn't help but sigh at the mystical sight . Even without the support of any power, the Sky Curtain would never run dry . Although Li Yunmu's strength was comparable to a master god, he still couldn't create such a sight .
"Oh, is this Sky Curtain just a boundary? Why do I feel that it isn't so simple?" Li Yunmu asked the system in his brain .
But there was only deathly silence in his mind .
After noticing the lack of reaction, Li Yunmu didn't continue asking the system . He understood that it wouldn't tell him everything and that it wanted to keep some things to itself as well .
"Let's go, I haven't seen Landlou's scenery . "

After he spoke, the two of them passed through the Sky Curtain and arrived in a jungle without any hindrance .
"This is Lanlou?" Li Yunmu slowly asked while looking around the jungle .
The Land of Ice had a vast expanse of snow, and the eastern domain's Ancient Lands was a wasteland with sparse vegetation, while the central region had a sand ocean . Apart from sand, there was only more sand and some pyramids there .
The vast ocean was filled with islands and archipelagos, but Lanlou was not like that either . It was surprisingly a boundless jungle .
[Lanlou has already been scanned . Do you want to take a look?] the system asked .
"En . "
An enormous 3D map appeared in Li Yunmu's mind, and all of it showed a jungle .
How could the Eight live in such a land?
[As the gods of the Lanlou region, they naturally would not live in the jungle . They live in a divine palace in the sky while the vast jungle is the residence of mortals . Compared to the other four regions, the social hierarchy in Lanlou is even more rigid, and the distance between gods and mortals is even larger,] the system explained .

Li Yunmu raised his head to look at the sky where he saw some clouds, but no divine palace caught his attention . But it was true that although the gap between mortals and gods was large in other places, a mortal might still encounter a god if they were lucky .
"The wider the gap between mortals and gods is, the higher the position of the gods is in the heart of mortals," Li Yunmu blurted out without thinking .
Brunhilda, who was standing next to him, nodded and looked at the blue sky with a smile .
"This is indeed the case . Among the five regions, the power of conviction is the highest in Lanlou . Just because of the belief of these mortals, the strength of the gods of Lanlou is much more formidable compared to the other regions . Otherwise, why did you think Zeus wanted to collaborate with gods of Lanlou to attack our Scandinavia?"
When Li Yunmu heard about the power of belief, he frowned . After entering the Origin World, it was the first time he had heard about the power of belief .
"What kind of thing is this power of belief? It can increase their strength?"
"I also don't understand how it works . I only know that it originated in the era of master gods . After they disappeared, the other four regions except this Lanlou became unable to use the power of belief . I have asked father about this previously, but he only told me that the power of belief is only harmful for gods and has no benefits . "
Power of belief? A product of master god era? Use of it is prohibited?

"System, since you are the True God, tell me what exactly is this power of belief that you speak of? How is it used?"
Li Yunmu led Brunhilda while holding her hand into the jungle .
After a moment, the system slowly explained the matter . [In truth, this power of belief is only a failed product and nothing more . When I was the True God and created the five tribes of gods and mortals, power of belief was born as a result of mortals revering gods . I investigated the source of the power of belief, and it was the power of people's hearts .
[The power of heart of a single mortal is nothing much, but many little drops make an ocean . The power of belief allowed the gods to increase their cultivation without any hindrance, and they rose grom gods to ancient gods, then to master gods . While I was in hibernation, the master gods of the five regions discovered it and began to collect the power of belief .
[Naturally, the more power of belief was collected, the better it was . After knowing that the power of belief allowed their cultivation to rise without bottlenecks, the gods began to descend to the lower world to collect believers .
[But the mortals aren't endless, and who wouldn't more power of belief? Thus, the gods began to fight among themselves for the first time . At that time, not only the gods but even the ancient gods participated in the war, while the five master gods controlled the scene from behind .
[When I woke up, the entire Origin World had turned into a desolate land with numerous gods dead and mortals under distress . From that time, I prohibited the use of the power of belief . Lanlou, however, must've used the opportunity of the disappearance of master gods to begin using the power of belief to increase their strength . ]
After saying that, the system stopped speaking .
Li Yunmu, who was fascinated by the story, enquired more about the matter of the Origin World, like why the master gods of the five regions were sealed and as the True God, why did he need to find a host? What exactly was the truth of the situation?
