Chapter 554: Chapter 99: Divine Spirits Submit! Corn Goddess - Yolani_2

The High Priest began seeking guidance from the Divine Spirits through the blood ritual, but the response was silence, as if even the Divine Spirits could not glimpse anything, only sensing an intense activity among all spirits.

They are itching for action!

The spirits have never been this aggressive before.

Several days later.

A torrential rain fell.

The climate of this subcontinent is highly unusual, with frequent hurricanes, torrential rains, and tornadoes, and the newly arrived nomadic tribe is clearly unaccustomed to it. Their army has faced fierce resistance from the Aztecs, gaining upper hand in several confrontations but suffering significant losses, especially due to the spread of disease, forcing the army to temporarily regroup.

Worse news, the leader of the Turghut tribe, Khan Kree, has also contracted the disease, and even the accompanying Shaman is temporarily at a loss.

The witch Gleya slowly got up, glanced at the pale-faced Khan Kree, and said solemnly: "It’s a curse, and it’s also a disease."

Not long ago, the Eastern nomads conquered a ruined city and plundered the Moon Pyramid.

Shortly thereafter, the plague began to spread.

Duncan nodded without expression, then turned and left the tent. The plague and disease troubled the Eastern nomads heading south to the subcontinent, and if the spirits do not intervene, they may have to temporarily withdraw due to the plague.

But all spirits cannot act recklessly, the power of the Divine Spirit has its limits, and this plague may well have resulted from someone encountering something from human sacrifices.

This land reveres human sacrifices, with every offering involving the live excavation of hearts.

The leader is gravely ill, and panic ensues.

Duncan summoned the army’s Shaman Priest at this time, and said sternly: "Order to return all sacrificial artifacts plundered from the temple."

"Next, I will think of a solution."

With so many people infected, it is no longer enough to rely on medicine alone; only a miracle can save them.

At this moment, the witch Gleya appeared and softly said: "Do you have any ideas?"

Duncan said solemnly: "I will speak with the local Divine Spirits first."

In Dimension Space.

When Duncan arrived at this tribe, he had already seen the Spiritual Light on the temple altar, which was regarded as the Holy Sanctuary of a certain Divine Spirit. Therefore, after conquering the tribe, Duncan persuaded the nomads not to plunder the altar temple, and the spirit was not one that fancied collecting gold and jewels.

The surrounding captives were all shut in rudimentary shelters, and Duncan’s figure slowly approached an elderly female priest, saying solemnly: "Take me to your most commonly used altar."

The elderly priest stood trembling, paused for a moment, looked up at Duncan, and finally nodded to lead the way.

——Corn Goddess, Yorlani.

The Eastern nomads had not yet truly engaged the Aztecs; the tribes they conquered worshiped a very particular pantheon, the ’Corn Pantheon.’

This pantheon traced its origins to Maya mythology.

Maya mythology features four pantheons, the oldest being the Corn Pantheon, followed by the Cardemps Pantheon, Beasts Pantheon, and Itzamna Pantheon.

From the Dark Ages to the present, numerous spirits have gradually retreated from the stage, severing their faith from the real world, making the changes in mythology difficult to trace. However, corn remains the most critical crop on this land, thus the Corn Pantheon still has roots here.

Yorlani is also known as the Tender Corn Goddess, symbolizing abundance, prosperity, and life, serving as the sole representative of the Corn Pantheon here, probably due to her weakness, becoming a subordinate of the Agriculture God.

The spirits whispered to Duncan, their will had descended.

Soon.

Duncan arrived at the altar surrounded by numerous corn carvings, and even a worn statue of a young man adorned with a corn pendant. Although damaged, he was likely the Main God of the erstwhile Corn Pantheon.

The Corn Pantheon is a local minor pantheon, unstable in this world, defeated back in the Dark Ages.

"You bear the will of all spirits."

Just as the elderly priest halted, suddenly a gentle whisper echoed, followed by the appearance of a woman adorned in green with yellow corn tassels, who gazed at Duncan with a hint of fear and sighed: "Humans."

"Do you intend to destroy my Holy Sanctuary?"

"The curse and plague were not sent by me."

——Corn Goddess Yorlani (Agriculture) (Corn) (Abundance) (Six-star Gold)!

Duncan was also observing her.

Behind him, the witch Gleya’s expression was stunned; she could not fathom why Duncan’s mere presence would compel the hidden Divine Spirit in the Holy Sanctuary to appear.

He must possess some ability that threatens the existence of the Divine Spirit.

One among the Corn Pantheon.

A presence likely possessing Weak Divine Power, perhaps not stronger than a demigod, belonging to the agriculture branch, corn, though the domain she presides over is quite admirable.

The spirits watch Duncan, awaiting his decision.

To obliterate this Divine Spirit, severing her faith.

Or something else.

Unknowingly, countless invisible essences emerged between heaven and earth, collectively forming the will of Heaven, akin to the concept of the Heavenly Dao, yet not as exalted. Strictly speaking, according to the elves’ classification, they belong to the High-Level Essence, a kind of Ancient Essence.

The All Spirits Faith belongs to a pantheistic system, whereas Monotheism represents an absolute dictatorship, and the ancient Greek pantheon represents feudal monarchy, the All Spirits Faith embodies a republic, or intellectualism.
