Chapter 54 The Power of Gods Shakes the Dimensions
Xiao Li sincerely praised and thanked Cheng Yuan and the Trisolaran civilization. Although the changes brought about by the Trisolarans had only been a year, the impact of that year surpassed that of the past tens of thousands of years.
Even during the time of the Yellow Emperor, the Yan Emperor, Yao, Shun, and Yu, people were not as hopeful about the future as they are now.
If the changes brought about by the Trisolarans can continue, the world will become a better place.
Xiao Li asked curiously, "What kind of world do you come from? Your world must be wonderful."
Is it good?
The place I come from is not bad, but the Three-Body universe is probably not so good.
Cheng Yuan said, "The world we come from is very different from this world. If Miss Li wants to know, she might as well go and see for herself. She should make some amazing discoveries."
There are big differences. How are they different?
What could have surprised her?
Xiao Li asked, "Can I go too?"
After saying that, she shook her head again: "No, I still have the goddess's divine decree to complete, I cannot leave."
Cheng Yuan knew what the divine decree the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden had given to Xiao Li, and laughed, "The divine decree of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden should not have mentioned our existence. Now that this world has changed because of our arrival, the divine decree of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden may not come true again."
Xiao Li fell into thought. It seemed that things were indeed the case. The changes brought about by the Trisolarans had already affected Loulan, and the disaster foretold in the oracle might not happen again.
Even so, she still had to wait until she was certain that the calamity predicted by the oracle would not actually happen before she went to the other world to take a look.
Cheng Yuan looked up at the sky and suddenly asked, "I've heard that the Yellow Emperor of this world ascended to heaven on a dragon long ago. May I ask, Miss Xiao Li, is this true?"
Xiao Li astutely grasped the special point in Cheng Yuan's words: "This world's Yellow Emperor."
Could there be a Yellow Emperor in another world?
Although she didn't know why the Supreme Ruler of the Trisolaran Empire asked this question, Xiao Li still answered: "This matter is indeed true. After the Yellow Emperor cast the tripod at Mount Jing, the Dragon God descended from the sky, with his beard hanging down to welcome the Yellow Emperor to heaven. More than seventy ministers and concubines accompanied him."
After Xiao Li answered, Cheng Yuan asked again, "Then, where did the Yellow Emperor go after ascending to heaven?"
Xiao Li replied in a matter-of-fact tone, "Of course they ascended to the realm of gods!"
"Does Miss Li know what the realm of gods is like? Does the realm of gods really exist? Did the Yellow Emperor truly ascend to the realm of gods?"
Xiao Li wanted to answer, "Of course the divine realm exists; the Yellow Emperor truly ascended to the divine realm," but suddenly, she was stumped because she realized that she had no real concept of the divine realm at all.
"Did the goddess hide her memories of the divine realm, or is there some other reason...?"
If the goddess had hidden her memories of the divine realm, that would be fine.
But if the goddess wasn't hiding anything, and she has no memory of the divine realm, then there's a big problem.
Having confirmed that she indeed had no concept of the divine realm in her memory, Xiao Li asked Cheng Yuan, "Your Excellency, do you know what's going on here?"
Cheng Yuan shook his head and said, "Miss Xiao Li, we don't know what's going on either. We just have a guess because we've encountered the same situation in other worlds."
It was fake. Of course Cheng Yuan knew the reason, but he couldn't tell Xiao Li.
"The Trisolarans have visited other worlds; our world is not the only one they have visited."
Xiao Li thought to herself, then asked, "Could His Excellency the Supreme Ruler please explain the situation?"
Cheng Yuan suppressed his smile and said seriously, "Sometimes, we feel that we have an impression of something, as if we know it and understand it, but when we think about it carefully, we find that we can't remember the details at all."
"It seems to be just a concept in our consciousness, without any actual content, as if some unknown entity has injected this concept into our consciousness without completing its specific details."
Cheng Yuan's words struck a chord with Xiao Li, who had just been feeling the same way: she had a concept, but couldn't recall the details when she tried to think about them.
Suddenly, Xiao Li remembered something and said to Cheng Yuan, "Sir, please allow me to leave for a moment."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Li's figure disappeared from the spot, and none of the surrounding equipment detected how she disappeared.
"This is very likely some kind of space teleportation technology!"
"It may not be spatial technology. This plane was created by the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden. As a tear shed by her, it may possess abilities that we do not know about."
"That involves creating a plane. Even if it's not a very large plane, it involves technologies such as spatial folding and unfolding, matter and energy conversion, elemental transformation, gravity manipulation, and mass generation. If we can analyze any one of these technologies, our technology can be greatly improved."
This area isn't large, but it has a lot of good stuff.
Just as the Trisolaran scientists at LV-223 were making various conjectures about Xiao Li's disappearance, the entire Qin Shi world suddenly trembled.
It wasn't an earthquake, but rather the entire world was being stirred by a powerful force, as if a majestic deity capable of plucking stars from the sky had awakened.
This caused Cheng Yuan to immediately abandon control of the simulation robot. All the Trisolaran governors on LV-223 were on high alert, and all the weapons that had been set up were put into firing mode.
If the situation changes, open fire immediately. If the enemy cannot be repelled, then the only option is to close the multidimensional portal and abandon the development of the Qin Shi dimension.
However, things didn't get to the worst point. There was only that one tremor, and no new tremors occurred. It seemed that the deity had simply turned over in his sleep and hadn't actually woken up.
This allowed Cheng Yuan and the other officials to breathe a slight sigh of relief.
It was only slightly; the power that shook the entire Qin Shi world was most likely the power of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden.
If they were to actually fight the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, the Three-Body Problem's strongest tactic right now would be to launch a faster-than-light attack using a faster-than-light engine. However, a faster-than-light attack might not be effective against a god capable of creating a plane, even if it is not a very large plane.
Not long after the tremors ended, Xiao Li reappeared in the same spot, bringing with her a strange little beast.
Both Xiao Shou and Xiao Li looked extremely solemn. Seeing the two of them like this, Cheng Yuan could roughly guess what had happened.
Xiao Li took a deep breath, looked at Cheng Yuan, and said, "Just now I found Xiao Xiuxiu and asked her about things related to the Dragon God."
"Just as Your Excellency the Supreme Ruler said, Xiao Xiuxiu knows that she is the ninth son of the Dragon God, but she cannot describe the Dragon God's specific appearance."
"Afterwards, I went to the place where the goddess slept, wanting to ask her what happened..."
Sure enough, the tremor that shook the entire plane was the power of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden. It's no surprise that the Creator God shook his own plane.
Xiao Li said in a deep voice, "But when I arrived, I found that the goddess's consciousness had disappeared, and what was sleeping there was just an empty shell."
Actually, Xiao Li had another guess in her heart, but she didn't want to think about it too deeply.
Xiao Li's words were good news for Cheng Yuan. If Xiao Li wasn't lying, then it was basically certain that the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden was a plant goddess.
However, while the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden herself is no longer a threat, Xiao Li is. She can go to the place where the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden sleeps and activate the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden's body, which is no different from the fact that there is an awake Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden in the Qin Dynasty world.
