Bai Yujing looked at the scenery inside the cave. Surprisingly, there were trees growing within the tree hole, and sand from an unknown source covered the ground, with small flowers sprouting in the crevices. As they walked deeper inside, sunlight could no longer penetrate, yet the cave remained bright.
A type of unknown moss clung to the interior, covering everything inside and out, emitting a faint blue glow that spread like a beautiful galaxy into the depths.
Helena walked ahead while Bai Yujing followed behind. It had to be said that the Lake Fairy Clan seemed to embody the most beautiful aspects of femininity; their temperaments, personalities, and appearances were all reminiscent of the legendary Holy Spirit, perfect to the point of seeming almost otherworldly.
Dressed in a white gauzy robe and wearing a crown, Helena moved through this magnificent and fantastical tree hole, naturally evoking thoughts of fairies, goddesses, and angels. With her tall figure, ethereal demeanor, and perfect looks, it was no wonder that Lake Fairy Lily was revered as a deity during her time on Earth.
"What is the purpose of your Lake Fairy Clan?" Bai Yujing couldn't help but ask Helena.
Helena turned back and glanced at Bai Yujing. "To protect this world!"
Bai Yujing continued to inquire, "Is this your own idea or a meaning bestowed upon you by others?"
Helena turned back and quietly looked at Bai Yujing. "This is the meaning of our existence and our lives. Do not measure us by human standards; humans have never known what they truly want. They lack spirit and do not understand their true desires. They are merely a race controlled by bodily desires and hormones, so they cannot comprehend us Fairies!"
After hearing Helena's words, Bai Yujing began to understand their perspective. They were a people who followed their hearts and inner selves; they would not be controlled by bodily hormones or desires. Therefore, regardless of whether this purpose was assigned to them or not, their actions reflected their inner thoughts.
However, Bai Yujing did not notice that Helena used "we" instead of "you."
The cave spiraled downward and was not entirely flat; some areas were spacious while others were narrow. In the narrow spots, when Bai Yujing brushed her hand against the wall, she discovered that what glowed on the wall was not moss but rather a type of oil secreted from the Holy Oak itself, congealed on the surface. When Bai Yujing accidentally pressed her hand against it, it became stuck and turned blue.
Finally reaching the end, Bai Yujing found a layer of barrier blocking her path. At this moment, both she and Helena stood firmly on the ground. Bai Yujing could confirm that beneath her feet was solid ground; they must have arrived at the roots of the Holy Oak.
Seeing this barrier provided some relief for Bai Yujing. Logically speaking, this place should be very important to the Fairy Clan; why had they encountered no guards or protective mechanisms here? It was possible that it had been abandoned after the Fountain of Life dried up. However, it seemed more likely that it was due to this layer of barrier.
Bai Yujing understood how formidable this barrier was; even that fierce White Dragon had been unable to breach it. Ordinary people or those without the Holy Oak Staff truly had no way to enter.
Helena stepped onto the black soil in front of the barrier and said to Bai Yujing, "Hand me the Holy Oak Staff!"
Bai Yujing extended her hand and gently waved it, causing the entire barrier to vanish without a trace. This was completely different from when Bai Yujing had previously used a staff to open a passage; it was as if this layer of barrier had been entirely lifted.
"Wow! How did you do that?" Bai Yujing looked at Helena.
Helena explained to Bai Yujing, "This is the staff that the gods used to isolate and protect each Sky Island. All the barriers and seals of the Sky Kingdom can be controlled with it, but those without spirit cannot use it!"
"I should have spirit too; why can't I use it? Can you teach me?"
"This cannot be taught. When the time comes for you to know, you will naturally understand!"
After crossing a layer of stone steps, Bai Yujing and Helena finally arrived at what was known as the Divine Realm. Bai Yujing looked up and saw that a light blue glow filled the entire dome, illuminating the space. Although it wasn't overly bright, the light blue glow was enough for Bai Yujing to see everything around her clearly.
On both sides of the path, gray grass and dark red flowers grew abundantly. A stone-paved road led directly into the depths. Bai Yujing noticed an unusual stone on a high platform in the distance, covered in weeds but still very conspicuous, as it was clearly the core of this place.
Bai Yujing and Helena walked along Flagstone Road until they reached this area, which was backed against a cave wall. As Bai Yujing approached, she suddenly noticed sunlight streaming in and shining on her, startling her greatly.
Bai Yujing searched around but could not find where the light source was coming from; it seemed like an inexplicable ray of sunlight enveloped her.
"This is a symbol recognized by the world; you possess authority similar to that of the gods. However, since you have not awakened your spirit, you cannot utilize it," Helena said as she walked up to Bai Yujing.
"Give me the Golden Disc!"
The stone appeared in a triangular shape. Once the weeds were cleared away, its complete form emerged: a triangular pillar with a recessed groove in the center, covered in strange characters and symbols that gave off an air of mystery.
"How can there be nothing?" Bai Yujing searched repeatedly for quite some time, feeling very puzzled.
Helena stepped in front of Bai Yujing and asked, "What do you mean there is nothing?"
"The place where the Golden Disc is supposed to be embedded!"
Helena chuckled lightly, "The Golden Disc has no meaning; the only thing that matters is the inscription on it, which is the origin of this world. When Lily extracted them and brought them to the human realm, she intended to use it to sense and find an existence like yours!"
After saying this, Helena held the three Golden Discs in her hand and saw that the Golden Discs, which Bai Yujing had been unable to destroy, instantly transformed into three inscriptions representing youth, lifespan, and healing.
"You come!"
"I come? What should I do?"
Bai Yujing took the three inscriptions and saw them spinning in a triangular formation in his hand. Helena held Bai Yujing's hand as they stood at the front of the platform, extending her right hand forward.
"Recite after me!" Helena used the Lilliputian Language.
"In my name, obey my will, grant the origins of youth, lifespan, and healing, create the Source of Life!"
"........................"
Bai Yujing listened as Helena recited this overly dramatic phrase without changing her expression and did not say a word. After waiting for a long time, Helena turned to Bai Yujing and asked, "Why didn't you recite along?"
"Do I really have to say this? What significance does it have? Is it like how you have to shout out the name of a skill when using it?" Bai Yujing asked with a confused expression.
Helena lowered her hand. "Although I don't quite understand what you mean, you must let the world feel your will; that's the simplest way!"
