"Never mind, let's talk about your current situation instead!"
The gaze shifted back to Li Boyang as Xiluo rarely brought up a serious topic.
"You're hearing more and more voices now..."
"This is the process of you advancing from an Innate Divine to a God."
"It's just that most Gods only hear the voices of their followers and priests after they beco Gods."
After a slight pause in tone, Xiluo continued, rather gleefully.
"You, however, already had a considerable number of followers even before becoming a God, among them even Innate Divines qualified to be priests."
"This ans you're already quite similar to a God now..."
"Next, you just need to settle on any mountain or near a water vein, and I believe you'll smoothly advance to a God in no ti."
"This is an opportunity countless Innate Divines dream of, so what's there to worry about?"
Li Boyang naturally sensed the glee in Xiluo's words, and could only roll his eyes helplessly.
"I think this Feilai Peak is pretty good, why don't you let take over as the Mountain God here?"
Their familiar bickering left Lu Huaijin, standing beside them, utterly shocked.
In contrast, Li Jingshu was accustod to it, just watching with a smile.
In Lu Huaijin's eyes, Xiluo was the ruler of Feilai Peak and even the entire Yunng Marsh.
Li Boyang was the Son of the Mountain God, an Innate Saint.
But in Li Jingshu's eyes, the two were closer than family.
Let alone bickering, they've even had argunts and fights before, to which Li Jingshu was long accustod.
Although most of the ti, it was Xiluo throwing a one-sided tantrum.
One of the most morable incidents for Li Jingshu.
Was after the reconstruction of Feilai Peak, before floods swept through the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.
The specific events during that ti were never ntioned by Li Boyang or Xiluo, so Li Jingshu was also unaware.
All she knew was that Xiluo was genuinely furious during that period, even banning Li Boyang from setting foot on Feilai Peak.
Not until Li Boyang took action and recaptured the Ghost Gods who had fled from Feilai Peak.
Did the relationship between the two gradually thaw, leading to the subsequent creation of Yunng Marsh.
"Heh, if you truly wish to beco a God..."
"Isn't there a ready-made position in Yunng Marsh?"
Leaping directly onto the altar, Xiluo found a comfortable spot to lie down lazily, then spoke again.
"Currently, Yunng Marsh is the nexus of water veins from the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, connecting to the core of the Hundred Lands Dragon Vein..."
"Raising a powerful God here is quite easy."
"Moreover, you've already figured out the secret to 'becoming a God' yourself."
Hearing this, Li Boyang imdiately thought of the culprit causing him so much trouble.
"It's all that Red Fish's fault. I just asked her to deliver the River Map and Luo Book to the disaster-stricken humans."
"Who would have thought those Human-faced Fish were so straightforward..."
"Not only did they expose Red Fish, but they also emphasized the existence of 'Destiny'."
"As a result, almost every village or Fang Kingdom with the River Map and Luo Book now has statues of and Red Fish."
Upon hearing this, Xiluo burst into laughter, not forgetting to add more fuel to the fire with her words.
"Yes, and the statues are modeled after the 'Human-faced Fish.'"
"I took so ti to visit Baling Kingdom recently..."
"That towering red human-faced fish with three eyes truly looked mighty."
Li Boyang's divine statue as a human-faced fish was due to the River Map and Luo Book being delivered by human-faced fish.
In this world where Innate Divines truly exist,
it's natural for those who benefited to see 'Destiny' as a god of the human-faced fish.
Combined with the inadvertent details the human-faced fish revealed about 'Destiny,'
a red human-faced fish with three eyes naturally beca Li Boyang's image in people's minds.
"Stop it, the image in Baling Kingdom is actually one of the better ones..."
"At least they've actually seen a human-faced fish, they've just slightly enhanced its image."
With a pained expression, covering half his face, Li Boyang sighed deeply.
"But those who haven't seen a human-faced fish and only received copies of the River Map and Luo Book, their depiction of 'Destiny' is unspeakable."
"The better ones model it after a human, at most it's a half-human, half-fish image..."
"But those without much knowledge, yet with wild imaginations, you'd hardly believe how bizarre their creativity is."
Without anyone prodding him further, Li Boyang couldn't help but start venting.
"Just today, I heard villagers from a village want to model my statue after the River Map and Luo Book..."
"If that was all, it would be okay, but they insist on adding all sorts of traits they've heard or imagined."
"In the end, they've co up with a three-eyed, sharp-toothed, entirely scarlet... book?"
When ntioning "book," Li Boyang hesitated slightly.
Because "book" was what those villagers called it; he refused to acknowledge that square, indescribable mass as a "book."
Nevertheless, although these statues co in many bizarre shapes and forms,
the voices that reached Li Boyang's ears always reminded him that these oddly-shaped statues were indeed of him.
Different from Li Boyang's self-devised Telepathy,
these voices from the multitude didn't care if Li Boyang wanted to hear them or not, they almost forcibly poured into his ears.
According to Xiluo, this was an inevitable path to becoming a God.
The difference was that most Gods didn't have such a firm-voiced following.
So Wild Gods didn't even have followers, let alone hear their voices.
— To hear the voices of all things.
This is what most Gods refer to this ability.
But truly being able to hear the voices of all things could only be accomplished by Gods who have achieved great deeds.
"It's quite strange, ordinary Gods can easily block out those voices."
"For instance, I only listen to the voices I want to hear, and ignore those I don't."
At that mont, Xiluo licked her paw and continued.
"Being able to hear followers' voices is rely one ability of Gods, not a necessary condition for godhood."
"But your current situation seems a bit off, which might relate to not having beco a God yet?"
"Why not try becoming a God and see if you can block out those voices afterward?"
Listening to Xiluo speak so lightly, one might think becoming a God was a simple matter.
Fortunately, Li Boyang was long used to Xiluo's nonsense, instead revealing a contemplative expression.
"Wait... you don't really intend to beco a God, do you?"
Noticing the expression on Li Boyang's face, Xiluo, who had been teasing him, widened her eyes in surprise.
"Are you planning to give up your Path of Celestial and Human?"
With a slight shrug, Li Boyang chuckled noncommittally.
"That's not necessarily the case; perhaps the two paths aren't mutually exclusive?"
Saying this, Li Boyang gazed into the distance beyond the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.
"Soone might be able to provide with a reference answer..."
