Chapter 278 Repairing the Big Hole
The Dragon King smiled and said, "Friend Zhong, if the seawater is reduced by half, this method will indeed work, but how can the seawater be reduced by half?"
Zhong Ling'er took out her wine gourd and said, "I heard that this wine gourd can hold all the water in the East China Sea. I wonder how the South China Sea compares to the East China Sea?"
The Dragon King's eyes immediately widened. He took the wine gourd and sensed it. "Divine weapon? Where did Young Master Zhong get this?"
It's no wonder that the Dragon King was frightened. This thing is just a container for water to other people, but to him it is the life and death of the entire aquatic creature. If someone uses it to hold all the sea water, how can his aquatic creature survive?
As for the question of which has more water, the South China Sea or the East China Sea, the Dragon King does not want to answer. The East China Sea is large in area but shallow in water, while the South China Sea is slightly smaller in area but deep in water. This question has been debated for tens of thousands of years without an answer, so it is better not to mention it.
Zhong Linger smiled happily, "This was given to me by the head of the Xuanyuan family. Since the Dragon King knows that it is a divine weapon, he should find it useful."
The Dragon King forced a smile and said, "Friend Zhong, this artifact is certainly useful, but this matter is not that simple. Without half of the seawater, the living space of the aquatic creatures will be reduced, and some natural enemies will be in trouble if they are crowded together. I need to make some preparations in advance."
The Dragon King left in a hurry with the wine gourd. Zhong Ling'er suddenly had a bad feeling. The Dragon King would not covet her artifact, right? The Dragon King of the South China Sea was so wealthy, he would not rob a little girl like her!
Zhong Ling'er did not put all her hopes on the Dragon King. She found her master and the head of the Xuanyuan family and asked them to bring many powerful people with her in case of emergency.
Five days later, on the agreed day, the Dragon King rose to the surface of the sea and shouted, "All water creatures, return to your positions and get ready!"
The sound circled over the South China Sea, and countless fish and shrimps dived immediately. The creatures in the sea each looked for their own mothers and returned to their own homes. They had been notified in advance and had already found hiding places and made preparations.
Then the Dragon King took out the wine gourd, flushed the gourd mouth downward, and used his magic power to start sucking in sea water.
Driven by powerful spiritual power, the wine gourd continued to grow larger, like a giant whale swallowing sea water. Spiritual energy swirled around it and the power of space spread.
At the coast, the sea water gradually receded, revealing the white sand beach, and the black reefs gradually emerged from the water. Small islands hidden under the sea emerged, and seabirds circled and pecked at the exposed fish, shrimp and shellfish.
Two hours later, sweat broke out on the Dragon King's forehead. Long Wu rushed over and said, "Dragon King, you can't breathe anymore. Many water creatures are already having trouble breathing."
The Dragon King frowned, he had not sucked up half of the wine. However, he could not ignore the lives of his people, so he had to put away the wine gourd.
Zhong Ling'er was watching the big fish and small shrimps crowded together under the sea, her saliva dripping all over the floor. She wished she could take out her spirit beast bag immediately and fill it with as much as she could.
When Long Wu saw Zhong Ling'er's sparkling eyes, he immediately ran in front of her and blocked her gaze.
"Junior sister, we can start now."
"Oh, let's do it!"
Zhong Ling'er reluctantly withdrew her gaze, and was then pulled by Long Wu and sank to the bottom of the sea.
Zhenren Wu Chen slapped the ground with his palm and injected spiritual power to raise the formation. However, there was still a thin layer of sea water on the formation space, and it was impossible to drain all the water from the entire area.
At this time they could only rely on manpower. Nearly fifty powerful men used water magic to separate the layer of sea water. The sunlight was finally able to shine on the whole body of the copper-scaled snake. He twisted uncomfortably, and countless tiny "cracking" sounds were heard on the ground.
Zhong Ling'er looked at the runes that flickered on the formation. She threw out a dozen talismans to stabilize the formation. At the same time, she asked Master Wu Chen and fifty great men to form a circle and work together to reduce the pressure of the sea water on the formation, finally stabilizing the formation.
He gave the copper-scaled snake a hand gesture, and the copper-scaled snake happily flew up and turned into a small snake as thick as a thumb and wrapped around Zhong Ling'er's wrist. As it flew up, the ground above it collapsed completely.
Just as Ling Ji said, the underworld would reject foreign things, so the fallen fragments floated in the middle soon after they fell.
Zhong Ling'er ignored it and took out her own super-large pot No. 2. She used the ground with the big hole as a stove and put the pot on top. As a result, the pot was still much smaller. Zhong Ling'er immediately said to the others, "Quick, weld the pot to the ground."
The repairman immediately started to work. While welding one end of the pot, he also looked for solid rocks on the ground to fix it. In some places that were too far away, he had to set up beams. In short, he was very busy.
Zhong Ling'er was operating the big pot. Within half a day, she was sweating profusely and had a splitting headache. Bai Luochen and others took turns to help her, and finally she could catch her breath.
Zhong Ling'er was not idle either. She directed people to repair the places that could be filled with grout. There were only five days left, and this speed was not enough. They had to speed up.
Everyone started moving. It was a race against time. If they couldn't finish within the agreed time, all their efforts would be in vain once the stagnant water rushed over.
"Everyone, please be faster. But being faster doesn't mean being careless or fooling around. If even one steel bar is not welded firmly, then everything we have done will be in vain."
"Brothers over here, you can split into another group to do it at the same time. This way it will be faster. Don't panic. If you create a gap, it will be troublesome."
"The mighty ones who support the formation, you must also work hard. There are only thirty mighty ones in the underworld, but they were able to hold up the water flow on the Forgotten River for five days. With so many of us, we will not be any worse than them. We must show the people of the underworld how resilient we are. Although we are in a place abandoned by the gods, we are by no means weaker than them in the underworld."
"Everyone, let's work together and we will definitely get everything done. A few days ago, we pacified the battlefield of the Falling Gods, and today we repaired the seabed cracks. In the future, we will make this world better. We are not a garbage dump, and we are qualified to ascend to the sky again."
Zhong Ling'er continued to encourage everyone and ignited everyone's passion. Everyone had only one idea, which was to do their job as quickly as possible and not to fall behind. This crack must be repaired.
The people in front of Taiqiong Mirror were silently cheering them on, and many of them had already set out to provide support.
The Dragon King, who had rushed back after settling the affected aquatic creatures, also brought people to join in. Human monks from all over the place also arrived one after another. With their help, the speed became faster and faster, and those tired people were able to catch their breath.
Five days passed in a flash, and as the last gap was repaired, everyone cheered.
Zhong Ling'er didn't laugh, but pulled the copper-scaled snake on her wrist and asked it to shake its body in the super-large pot. A slight cracking sound was heard, and everyone's laughter stopped abruptly.
