Chapter 773: Chapter 420 Divine Revelation Scripture, the King Returns East
The warm spring rain fell from the sky, drizzling and soaking the fields in the Patzcuaro Lake region. May in the Lake Region was full of activity, as tens of thousands of farmers tirelessly worked the fields, and the stationed garrisons were no different. Xiuolote, wearing Ceremonial Dress, came to the outskirts of the city to personally conduct the spring planting ceremony.
The Spring Planting Ceremony was grand and solemn, with hundreds of priests of all ranks participating, releasing fireworks to pray to the divine. Fireworks blossomed and exploded under the overcast sky, and the devout crowd prostrated in prayer, tears of excitement streaming down their faces. They wholeheartedly praised the Chief Divine, praying for his Blessing on this year’s harvest, and for his protection for his devoutly dedicated Citizens.
It had been half a month since the experiment of raising the Divine Revelation balloon, and news of the divine sign had spread widely throughout the Lake Region. The people of the Capital Region had witnessed "the gaze of the deities" with their own eyes and were shocked and awed by the might of the Chief Divine. The remnants of the three-deity faith in the Capital Region had finally dissipated completely, and nearly a hundred thousand people had wholeheartedly embraced the wide bosom of the Chief Divine.
The shouts of the spring planting ceremony outside the city were like thunder, shaking the wilderness. Inside the city, in the Divine Might University, a similar spring planting prayer ceremony was also taking place.
Hundreds of apprentices stood in reverent silence, praying towards the Chief Divine’s emblem in the training ground, praising the glory of the Chief Divine and thanking him for his enlightenment. Some devout apprentices even drew out Obsidian Stone daggers, kissing the Sun Hummingbird amulets while cutting their own arms and cheeks, offering their blood to the exalted Chief Divine!
And behind the emblem of the Chief Divine, the blank stone wall had been inscribed with King’s dense and profound "Divine Revelation" scriptures, accompanied by annotations written in small characters by Bravo himself.
Divine Might University was the Priest University, specifically cultivating reserves of priests for the Kingdom. Under Bravo’s control, Divine Might University was mysterious and closed-off to the outside and sternly managed within, essentially no different from a military academy. After the King departed, Bravo quickly unified the narrative of the apprenticing priests, controlled the spread of "Mystery of Deities," and added annotations to the inscribed "King’s Instructions" that conformed to tradition.
Soon, everything in Divine Might University seemed to have returned to traditional religion. The awe-inspiring experiments, like a magnificent firework, had burst in an instant, soon fading away. Yet in the hearts of the apprentices, seeds of the future were deeply sown.
The young girl Yilian followed the apprentices in their prayers and then returned to the wooden house where she resided. Not long before, Vice Principal Bravo had spoken with everyone. He distributed a new "Divine Revelation Scripture" to several dozen apprentices of the Divine Revelation College and sternly admonished them not to spread it privately, or they would suffer Divine Punishment!
Upon hearing the words "Divine Punishment," all the apprentices present shuddered, bowing their heads in silence, not daring to make a sound. Yilian did not know exactly what Divine Punishment was, but judging from everyone’s reactions, it must be very severe. When it was her turn, Bravo hesitated for a moment but still gave her a volume of the "Divine Revelation Scripture."
Yilian, unable to wait, took out the "Divine Revelation Scripture" as soon as she returned to her hut. The cover bore the eight mysterious characters "Mystery of Deities, Illustrated Natural Philosophy," and in the bottom right corner were the three smaller characters, "Volume One." This was compiled personally by the King and had court Painters create the illustrations, which brought every page vividly to life, conveying many new and interesting principles of nature.
The girl, who knew only a few words, mostly looked at the illustrations inside. Biting her finger, she quickly flipped through the first few pages she had already seen and came to a new section, muttering softly to herself.
"Why are some springs hot?..."
Yilian paused, the hot springs near the Colima Volcano coming to mind. Her father enjoyed soaking in the hot springs because, according to the knowledge passed down through their Tribe, the warm waters contained the Fire God’s Blessing, and could grant long life to the Divine Descendants... With this thought, her eyes widened as she looked toward the answering illustration.
Below the earth’s lakes, a red flame was drawn. Steam, resembling clouds, then rose, flowing toward the bottom of the lake... Surrounding the illustration were explanatory texts.
"Deep beneath the earth lies fiery flames. The flames melt rocks into magma, conveying the Divine Power’s scorching heat through the earth’s fissures, and rising hot steam heats the bottom of the lake..."
Yilian struggled to comprehend the illustrations, making out the words. Her eyes sparkled like butterflies flitting through flowers. Unbeknownst to her, the door to a new world was slowly opening to her.
The spring plant ceremony lasted the entire day. Only as the twilight deepened did Xiulote return to the soaring Palace of Wind. He opened the reports from various regions, then called for the court Painter to continue composing the enlightening texts for the Divine Revelation College, "Mystery of Deities, Illustrated Natural Philosophy."
This set of books was richly illustrated and narrated many common principles of nature, including astronomy, geography, physics, chemistry, and even the basics of biology. The primary content came from the natural knowledge in his memory, as well as the enlightening books he had read. The speed at which the illustrated books were being written was very fast, with the Painters working day and night. Now, it had reached the third volume.
"When I go to the Lake Capital City next month, I’ll take a set for Alisa as well. She will surely like the fundamentals of biology..."
The King smiled, thinking of the pure and lovely girl in white, and continued to instruct the Painter.
"Cells are like a fruit, with skin on the outside and a nucleus inside, but with additional tiny particles in between... Remember, in plant cells, add an outer wall, make them square-shaped... Yes, that’s right, just like that! Next, draw a virus for me... It’s like a tiny ball covered in numerous protrusions, resembling a round Cactus fruit..."
