Yu the Great looked at the raging floodwaters around him, his eyes turning cold: "For your own selfish reasons, you have actually mobilized the rivers and lakes within a thousand miles, causing another great flood and turning the world into a swamp?"
"Pah!" Gonggong seemed somewhat agitated. "After all these years, you still can't change your hypocritical face. Once I destroy you, the flood will naturally recede."
Yu said coldly, "I don't know how many innocent lives will die this way."
Zuan nodded secretly. Gonggong was indeed the template for a villain, indiscriminately killing innocent people. On the contrary, the magnanimity of Yu the Great was admirable.
Gonggong let out a series of chilling laughs: "Innocent lives? Since you are doing this for the sake of all living beings, you might as well be killed by me sooner so that I can save the common people sooner."
Yu the Great: "..."
"What, you're unwilling?" Gonggong spat. "In the end, what do the lives of all people matter compared to your own? Those are just pretenses you use to win people's hearts. Ultimately, you and I are no different; it's just that I disdain to pretend."
Zuan was dumbfounded. This guy's logic was very meticulous, leaving him at a loss for words.
Yun Jianyue couldn't help but nod slightly, even feeling a sense of kinship. Over the years, she had the same feeling when she fought with Yan Xuehen. The other party always stood on the moral high ground, and everyone in the world thought she was a fairy and she was a witch.
Yu the Great looked at Gonggong with a cold expression: "After being sealed away for so many years, is all you can do is talk big?"
Clearly, they were not affected by the other party's rhetoric at all.
Gonggong was furious: "You really are a complete hypocrite. Today I will destroy you."
Seemingly sensing his anger, the surrounding floodwaters surged, but the water level soon began to drop rapidly.
Yu Yanluo couldn't help but ask curiously, "Could it be that Yu the Great used some kind of supernatural power to disperse these floods?"
"I don't think so. I can feel a sense of impending doom, like dark clouds pressing down on the city." Yan Xuehen shook her head.
Yun Jianyue agreed, also believing that Gonggong was preparing a major move.
As the water level receded rapidly, Zaun could no longer stabilize himself using the bubbles formed by the blue ducks, so he rode on his Wind and Fire Wheels and carried the three women to a distant mountain peak.
He had no time to marvel at the warmth and beauty around him, but quickly said, "The water is receding rapidly, and it will probably form a huge wave."
He possessed the abilities of the Blue Fly, and was quite affinity-for-water. He was acutely aware that the water was all converging in one direction, and he suddenly recalled his encounter with the Weak Water.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, a white line suddenly appeared in the sky.
However, the participants were all top experts, and they quickly realized that what they saw was not a white line at all, but a giant wave.
As the waves surged in this direction, they grew higher and higher, seemingly about to reach the sky. Compared to the giant waves in "Interstellar," these were child's play.
Even from a great distance, Zuan and his companions felt a terrifying pressure, causing their expressions to change. If this giant wave were to crash down, not only would they be reduced to dust, but the entire mountain beneath their feet would likely be reduced to ashes.
Zaun had a similar experience in the Weak Water before, but those were actually more illusions created by the Weak Water, and there were no real, terrifying giant waves.
Gonggong's move summoned all the rivers and lakes within a thousand miles, a volume far greater than that of the Weak Water.
This was truly a case of collateral damage; the group tried to hide, but with such a vast and enormous wave, there was nowhere for them to escape.
Just then, Yu the Great made a move, sprinkling some soil at random. Yun Jianyue's eyes widened in disbelief: "That's it? He doesn't think he can stop this monstrous wave with just a little bit of soil, does he?"
That little bit of soil, let alone this huge wave, could easily be washed away by even a cup of water.
However, to everyone's surprise, the seemingly small mound of yellow earth grew rapidly in the wind after falling to the ground, quickly forming a huge dam.
The higher the waves, the higher the dike became.
Gonggong's eyes narrowed, and he exclaimed in surprise, "The Breath of Earth? You actually have this!"
Yu the Great said calmly, "Originally, flood control could have been achieved simply by dredging the channels, but you frequently break the rules and act recklessly with your divine power, so naturally, something is needed to restrain you."
"You're ruthless!" Gonggong said through gritted teeth, and with a wave of his hand, the giant wave crashed down, forming a raging flood once more.
"What is this 'breath soil'? Why didn't Gonggong even try it after hearing about it?" Yan Xuehen asked, somewhat puzzled.
Zu An explained, “The legendary Xirang is a treasure of the Heavenly Court. It is soil that can generate life and expand infinitely. There is a saying that Gun was executed not because he failed to control the flood, but because he stole the Xirang. Yu was Gun’s son, and he had the Xirang. This proves that the legend is probably true.”
The three women standing nearby listened with wide, amazed eyes, marveling at the existence of such wondrous things in the world.
Based on its properties, it completely counters Gonggong's flood, no wonder he didn't even bother to try it.
Yun Jianyue couldn't help but stare at Zu An: "Little Anzi, how do you know so much about ancient times? You should know that even we've never heard of these things."
Yan Xuehen and Yu Yanluo nodded in agreement, especially after arriving at this secret realm they knew nothing about, as if he were a person of this world.
Zuan smiled and said, "I know a lot more. Let's have a late-night talk sometime, and I'll tell you all about it slowly."
“Okay,” Yu Yanluo was fine, but Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen subconsciously agreed. Then they realized something was wrong and pinched his waist at the same time. “You brat, you even dare to take advantage of us.”
