Over the past few days, the landscape of the earth had changed dramatically.
Almost everywhere were silver trees and golden flowers, and the ground was crimson red, made of red iron.
The mountains were abundant with bronze, and the rivers flowed with mercury.
Chen Qing stood on such ground, gaining some insights regarding the awakening of the Miao God.
The Miao God foresaw that the entire Nanli would be engulfed in flames of war, so transformed the entire land into this state to reduce the destruction caused by war.
At the same time, mortals without cultivation would turn into copper and iron people, to some extent preventing cultivators from wantonly killing the innocent.
From this perspective, the Miao God was indeed a righteous deity.
Cultivators choosing to slaughter each other was their decision, while mortals were innocent, and the earth was innocent.
