Chapter 256: Nuwa mends the sky (30) Space-time rift: mended,...
The Shenlong tribe came for Xirang.
The most magical function of Xirang is that it can preserve life and energy, and it can also be used as spiritual soil to grow all kinds of spiritual plants in the world. The former is almost irreplaceable, while the latter can be replaced, but the price is an expert like Watson.
The various types of medicines popular on the Kyushu continent have made Shennong deeply aware of the importance of Xirang.
Despite this, Ye Mo is confident that he can keep Xirang and Watson together.
First, the Yanzi tribe can trade more than just pharmacy, and Watson's heart is here. Second, if Xirang is taken back, the Shennong tribe may face "internal and external troubles."
Shennong knew all this, so he only sent the Yan couple and ten warriors to negotiate with the Yanzi tribe, or Nuwa, about the friendly cooperation on Xirang and medicine.
Ye Mo will not stay in this world forever, and will leave sooner or later, so she has gradually handed over such matters involving tribal diplomacy and tribal hegemony to other wise men in the tribe, including this transaction.
He chose to be a backing background that cannot be ignored like Shennong.
However, the plan was broken by the Yinyou tribe.
More than a dozen envoys from the Yinyou tribe followed the Shennong tribe. After they presented the congratulatory gifts from the Yanzi Dragon, they did not hide and stated the purpose of their visit.
"I hope Nuwa can help me and borrow Xirang for use." Good guy, he dares to borrow everything and catches everything in one fell swoop. What is this?
"Why? On what basis?" Ye Mo asked the question that most people were thinking.
"The method to mend the sky."
The Yinyou tribe envoy answered like this, and the four seats were shocked and there was a lot of discussion.
Ye Mo had made such a guess before, but unfortunately the Yinyou clan only showed a slightly exaggerated expression at the first meeting of the alien world. Afterwards, no matter how he asked, the other party kept his mouth shut. There were only a few survivors in the Yinyou tribe, and none of them were high-ranking.
But why did they take the initiative to expose it now?
Ye Mo did not say anything, and watched the people including the Shenlong tribe envoy questioning the Yinyou envoy one by one, and the other party insisted that the Yinyou had a method to mend the sky.
When anyone asked them anything specific, they would not talk about it anymore.
"Stop." Ye Mo finally stopped the drama on the scene, his eyes pointed directly at the Yinyou messenger, "They probably just found out about this, and they don't know the real reason yet?"
The Yinyou messenger was hit in the heart, his face was pale, and he couldn't help but sigh at the horror of Nuwa.
No matter what trap there is, Ye Mo is determined to take the meat that is offered to him.
This Yinyou tribe must be visited.
Nowadays, the connection between the tribes in Jiuzhou is different from before. Shennong received the news from the space station in less than half an hour and made a decision within half an hour:
"In terms of saving the world, Shennong tribe will do its part, and the tribal leader will take hundreds of warriors to Yinyou tribe."
In addition to the Yanzi Shennong two-day tribe, Yinyou tribe also visited several other large-scale activities such as Lei Ze tribe and Yu Ren tribe. Because the remaining tribes basically belong to Yanzi, it is equivalent to Yinyou tribe going around the mainland of Jiuzhou.
...
When Ye Mo received the response from Shennong, he had teleported to the border of Yinyou Tribe by using the space array.
With her were the witch who hurried over, Watson who reduced his work by half to make it more lively, the Shenlong Tribe envoys, and the people of Yanzi Yinyou Tribe.
Yinyou Tribe is located in the rolling forest.
Unlike other forests in Jiuzhou, the forest of Yinyou Tribe does not have enough sunlight, is not tall and lush, and because of the dense dark energy, it is surrounded by light black fog all year round, full of poisonous insects and snakes, and more than 90% of the surviving vegetation are Yin-type poisonous plants.
From the outside, the environment of the Yinyou tribe is similar to that at the beginning of the invasion of the black mist and after the solution. If there were not a few survivors in the tribe, the outside world would not know that the Yinyou tribe encountered the invasion of the black mist.
Those survivors said that if they stayed in the Yinyou tribe for a long time, they would go crazy or depressed. If they defeated their inner demons and firmly practiced, they would go further.
Once they entered the forest, not to mention the threat of poison.
Ye Mo and others all had strange memories of their unforgettable nightmares that they had experienced, which could be called inner demons.
If the inner demon can be suppressed, it will be harmless and beneficial; but if it cannot be suppressed, the whole person will become irritable.
The people following Ye Mo are basically all elite strongmen, but three or four of them need Qingling Dan to stay awake and rational. Even though they are stronger than the Yinyou people, this is indeed an environment that is easy to make people depressed.
Entering the Yinyou Valley, the center of the tribe, this indiscriminate mental attack is even more serious.
What is surprising is that Yinyou, who should have been like a fish in water in the Yinyou tribe, appeared in front of everyone, just like the possessed foreigners, uneasy, hesitant, afraid, and even with a hint of madness in her eyes.
The multi-headed snakes wrapped around her ears, neck, and waist were originally lurkers, but now they turned into explosive attackers, as if they would bite anyone who came close.
What's going on?
Seeing Ye Mo and the others, Yin Youshi pointed at a tree stump in the corner of Yin You Valley without saying anything, and shouted loudly without any calmness: "Nuwa, look!"
The tree stump had been eroded for countless years, and was less than two meters tall. It was straight, with only two branches at the top of the stump, one of which had a tender green bud.
If it weren't for the tender bud, the stump would have looked more like a dead stump than a stump.
Ye Mo:
"Old tree grows new buds?"
"………Do you know what this tree is called? It's called Jianmu!" Yin Youshi said again, "In the entire Kyushu continent, only Jianmu is left in Yinyou Valley." "
Classic of Mountains and Seas·Sea Nei Jing": "Jianmu, a hundred feet high without branches, has nine tassels, and nine wolfberries under it. Its fruit is like hemp, and its leaves are like awns. The Great Sun passed by, and Huangdi..."
"Ode to the Sick Pear Tree": "Jianmu is on top of the Jiuling Hill, and the peaches grow on the side of the giant sea."
The Jianmu in later legends is located in Kunlun Mountain, a pillar of heaven and earth like the World Tree, which can connect the immortals, humans, and ghosts.
Ye Mo has never seen Jianmu in Kunlun Mountain, but she can confirm that "Classic of Mountains and Seas" must have been written by people in ancient mythology. The person who wrote the book or his ancestors must have experienced the Yanhuang period and knew a lot.
"Does the sprouting of Jianmu indicate the end of the world? What does this have to do with mending the sky?" Ye Mo asked without changing his expression.
"Do you know why the ancient beasts disappeared?" Yin You asked back.
This involves a blind spot in knowledge.
Ye Mo listened carefully.
Yin Youshi was younger than Yan Zishi and Sui Renshi, and her cultivation talent was far inferior to them, or even to most of the warriors present.
But Yin Youshi had a special feature, there were many people with dark talents, or only those with dark talents could inherit from the family's undead.
Yin Youshi was brought up by her elder undeads, and she knew more than anyone else present, such as the fact that they had killed the ancient beasts themselves.
“Intelligent life is born from chaotic energy and will give back to chaotic energy little by little to achieve a balance. Ancient creatures would be better off not eating or drinking in such an environment than struggling to survive like they do now. Until they can fly and hide underground, they will not be confined to the Earth and roam freely.”
“They flew beyond Kyushu, to the moon, to the sun, to the stars. It was difficult because there was a vast world beyond Kyushu. Many places in the sky had no spiritual energy and were light and desolate.”
Ye Mo could understand that, just like the 21st century technology moving towards aviation, this was like exploring the universe through metaphysics.
"Even though it's difficult, I heard that some ancient beasts succeeded." Yin You's eyes were full of envy, "but more beasts did not die in the challenge, or got lost in space, and never returned to the Kyushu continent."
"In addition to exploring the heavens and the earth, it is said that several ancient beasts fought a battle. The Azure Dragon, Suzaku, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise, and in the end, for some unknown reason, the Candle Dragon also joined. Their battle not only caused many lands in Kyushu continent to sink into the sea or turn into powder, but also tore the cracks in space and time. This is why the chaotic energy began to weaken."
Ye Mo thought of the current environment without any chaotic energy:... they made up for it, but maybe they didn't make up for it completely.
"Maybe it was repaired in the beginning!" Yin Youshi mentioned this with uncertainty, "but exploring time and space has become another new fun."
The survivors complained in their hearts:
"Everyone is too strong, and there are no legal and moral constraints."
"It's mainly too boring, and there are no two-dimensional games and soap water. Apart from practicing, you can only find a sense of accomplishment from fighting and exploring. Isn't it a torture?"
"The starting point is too high..."
Yin Youshi said dimly: "Later, it was like this. It was broken and repaired, sewn and repaired. The torn time and space points were basically desolate. Chaos energy could only flow in but not out. When the chaotic energy of Kyushu Continent leaked too much, the new generation was not as good as the previous one, and everyone became alert."
"It's still not too late to save it now, but someone finally got the clues and discovered a new world of life... This made it even more difficult to prohibit action, and fighting between parties with different opinions was commonplace."
"The new world not only has serious leakage of chaotic energy, but may also bring other disasters. Later, even the gods united to start removing the plants and magic stones on the mainland that could build bridges between the myriad worlds, but it was too late. The surviving ancient gods either fled, hid, or died."
Ye Mo asked again:
"What does this have to do with the new buds of Jianmu?"
"I have an ancestor named Shen Tu. She and her husband Yu Lei also opened a space rift in the middle period. They discovered a pure dark world that was absolutely conducive to cultivation. They occupied that place and named it 'The Land of the Netherworld'."
"They treated the Netherworld as a secluded cave and added a lot of things into it, especially the chaotic energy. In order to prevent it from being stolen, they introduced the drowning into the Netherworld to guard it. The Netherworld is much smaller than the Kyushu Continent, and the chaotic energy introduced there allowed the drowning and others to grow wildly."
"Until the Netherworld got out of control, they also discovered that the Kyushu Continent was riddled with holes."
