When Si and Jiu Hua uttered this sentence, they couldn't help but exchange glances, both seeing the astonishment in each other's eyes.

God, just one word, carries an indescribable power, making the atmosphere between the two immediately solemn.

"The true gods have been gone for many years, they have departed from the present world, only recently showing faint signs of revival."

"The gods extricated themselves from Star River, and common folks find it hard to see them. We, as Divine Sons, can thus have some connection with the gods. Except for special existences like the Great Sacrifice, not even the Supreme can sense the existence of gods. Without a medium in the present world, they cannot influence it."

"If truly a god intervened, it implies that aside from us, there's another of our 'kind' in this Human Race martial exam."

Si squinted, and in his large eyes was a wisdom different from that of the ordinary Ox Race.

As for the 'kind' he referred to, it was the 'Divine Son' with a mystical connection to the gods, in a sense, they are the mediums for gods to contact the present world.

"You mean, among these Human Race examinees, someone has received Divine Favor and acted against the Vine Immortal?"

Jiu Hua's eyes swirled with nine colors, exceptionally beautiful.

"I'm not sure, the Human Race is without divine protection, like children adrift in Star River, this was confirmed by all races back then. But given the current situation, I can't think of other possibilities."

"This is the Human Race's martial exam, the security facilities and inspection facilities are extremely strict, I even sense the presence of a Great Divine Power User descending through another's Mortal Body. Under these circumstances, other races absolutely cannot masquerade and sneak in."

Si spoke seriously.

"You suspect an 'extraterrestrial god' chose humans as his Divine Favor.." Jiu Hua crossed her hands, looking at her partner.

This is a freak born from the famously straightforward Ox Race, yet possessing a calmness and wisdom completely at odds with his kinsmen. His conduct, his thoughts, at times even Jiu Hua could not fathom.

Among the seven Divine Sons, the apparent leader is the Vine Immortal, but Jiu Hua knows, the one who hides the deepest is Si.

Si did not directly answer Jiu Hua's question but began to speak on his own.

"When the Human Race ventured out of Star River back then, they were suppressed by all races, with a major race using divine force, attempting to refine countless Human Race citizens, as blood sacrifices to gods,

At that time, no gods stepped in to protect the Human Race, if not for the emergence of nine Martial Gods from the Human Race who shielded their kind, plus the gods being absent from the present world, the Human Race would have been annihilated back then."

"Under such circumstances, no gods came forward, indicating that indeed there was no protection from ancient gods for the Human Race, thus influencing from the Human Race's heritage can be ruled out."

"There are five fledgling divine beings currently being nurtured in the Human Race, but they are extremely young, mere candle flames, unable to affect the present world, which can be excluded."

Si looked up at the starry sky, the splendid Star River reflected in his eyes.

"Under these circumstances, only two kinds of gods might act: the Human Race's Three Deceits Cult, they worship three Deceitful Gods, having great influence in Star River, even among other races they have devotees."

Jiu Hua slightly frowned; she too had heard of the Three Deceits Cult. In Star River, there are many organizations similar to the Three Deceits Cult, most collecting riches in the name of faith.

But the Three Deceits Cult is special, because the three Deceitful Gods they worship truly exist.

They are different from the long-absent gods, the gods worshipped by the Three Deceits Cult exist in the present world!!

Ordinary people perhaps cannot perceive, but as a Divine Son, Jiu Hua, during her last awakening, saw a follower of the Three Deceits Cult, and behind that follower...

Jiu Hua saw three extremely eerie terrifying figures.

Twisted, violent, mad, a fusion of all negative emotions, undoubtedly possessing that kind of terrifying aura, it could only be gods.

Yet at that time, all gods were asleep, only the Three Deceitful Gods still in the present world, this matter already reeked of strangeness, Jiu Hua believes there's a grand secret behind the existence of the Three Deceitful Gods.

However, Jiu Hua doesn't believe that the existence affecting Vine Immortal now is related to the Three Deceitful Gods.

"The Three Deceitful Gods are gods of madness, distortion, and self-abuse. If among this cohort of Human Race, there is Divine Favor from the Three Deceits Cult affecting the Vine Immortal, then his state shouldn't be like this."

"Instead, he would become more hysterical, more frenzied."

"Moreover, there's a problem with the origin of the Three Deceitful Gods, their status shouldn't surpass that of the entity behind Vine Immortal, who has his blessing and favor, the Three Deceits Cult cannot influence him."

Jiu Hua waved her hand, dismissing the possibility brought up by Si.

Upon hearing this, Si also nodded: "You and I think the same on this point, the gods worshipped by the Three Deceits Cult appear suspect; ordinarily, they should be the only existing gods in the present world after the departure of other gods."

But they have never descended in a true sense, moreover, I always feel their existence is incomplete, rather than gods more like they are..."

"A part of some unknowable existence..."

"Therefore, given their status, even if they bestow Divine Favor, influencing Vine Immortal would be nearly impossible, hence, there's only one possibility left..."

"Subspace.. Evil Gods"

Si said word by word.

Upon hearing this, Jiu Hua's beautiful face displayed a complex, indescribable expression.

Subspace is the most mysterious and unpredictable place in all of Star River, a reflection of the universe, containing countless incomprehensible terrifying creations, their grandeur and might not inferior to True Gods.

Even among them, some are called 'Primordial', possessing unimaginable Supreme Status.
