Chapter 510 Manifestation (3)
Jiaojue poured all the source energy inside into the storage basin.
The source wasn't much, just a small amount. Jiao Jue took a small sip and let the four little dragons each drink some, and then the source was finished.
The four little dragons were still drinking with great relish, and Ah Lan even stuck her head into the storage basin and licked the rim clean before coming out.
After drinking the source, it's time to get to work!
The four little dragons flew onto Qingpingzi's back, swept away the haphazardly applied ointment with their tails, then formed a circle with their claws touching. Finally, Ah Hong opened her mouth and bit down.
He bit a hole in the middle, letting the scorching blood flow out, and then bit around the edge.
Strands of spiritual energy, a mixture of water essence, wind essence, and lightning, flowed from Xiao Hong's mouth into Qing Pingzi's wounds, nourishing his burned meridians.
Steam rose from the opening in the middle, growing stronger and stronger. Just as it seemed about to burst into flames, Xiao Hong suddenly raised her head and spat out a small stream of electricity. The steam then crackled and popped as it followed the sparks of electricity.
The four little dragons of power transferred their energy to Qingpingzi, extinguishing the anger in his mind, and then hung back on Ji Rong's tree trunk, no longer showing their heads.
Looking at Jiao Jue, who seemed to be in relatively good spirits, Ji Zhuang said, "Lord Jue, there will be a transport team carrying spirit crystals back to Kyushu in the next couple of days. I will go back with them and bring some source material with me."
Jiaojue shook his head and said, "Notify all mining areas not to send any more ore back. Re-explore the star path before discussing anything else."
"The original star path was destroyed by the calamity brought about by your sister's ascension. If you go back directly, you will definitely not find the way." After saying this, He sat cross-legged to one side and said no more.
Jiaojue longed for another long nap, but he couldn't sleep because Ji Rong had been promoted, and he was poor again.
In the days to come, they would have to be self-sufficient, but far away on the Blue Star, they did not have much land available for cultivation.
Without a doubt, for a long time to come, they will be so poor that all they have left are extraterrestrial spirit crystals.
Ji Rong's roots brushed up Ji Zhuang's neck from behind, burrowed into his wings and claws, and formed characters in the center of his claws. Upon seeing this, Ji Zhuang immediately nodded and left.
After he went out and informed Gu Qingqing of the news, he followed Ji Rong's instructions and began to gather experienced miners to continue reclaiming land outside the fifth mining area.
Growing crops on this blue star is not easy.
Even with the improved medicinal powder from the Kyushu region, dozens of crops still die for every patch of soil that is cultivated.
Only after crops have absorbed all the remaining toxins in the soil can they grow. And that's not all, because hail, floods, and firestorms can fall at any time and burn everything to ashes.
Therefore, farming on this blue star requires immense patience.
Ji Zhuang had no shortage of patience, while the miners were paid by the day. For them, earning the same money as mining, but only needing to dig according to requirements, was an easy job. Therefore, the miners who were chosen all cherished this new job.
Another year and a half passed, and Qingpingzi also woke up. Only three days after he woke up, he saw a bird's beak protruding from Ji Rong's tree trunk. She was shouting that she was hungry, and her roots were crawling all over the ground, trying to reach into the spirit crystal mine to find food and drink.
She could also transform into a bird, but she complained that the tree trunk grew too fast and that being a tree was far more comfortable than being a bird, so she maintained this strange appearance.
Jiaojue, unwilling to share a cave with this incredibly expensive bird, left Qingpingzi to guard Ji Rong. He then left the mine to reclaim control of the various mining areas and explore new star paths.
After nine years, they finally met the cultivators on the other side of the Heavenly Road at the edge of the area illuminated by the Lord of Dawn.
Ze Peng solemnly handed the new star map to Jiao Jue and asked with concern, "Jue Jun, how are my master and senior uncle?"
Jiao Jue looked at Ze Peng and nodded, saying, "They won't die. What about your side?"
Ze Peng said, "It affected the three nearest mining stars, but with the help of Han Jun, He covered these stars with an ice shield; only two thousand died and five thousand were injured. Once the calamity stopped, we sent the injured back to the Nine Provinces in batches."
Jiao Jue nodded and said, "That's very good. Did the Mountain and Water God ask you to bring anything up?"
Ze Peng then presented nine large containers filled with the Origin Stream. Jiao Jue picked up one of the containers, shook it, and found it to be full. He couldn't help but ask, "Did the Mountain and Water God ask you to bring the entire pool here?"
Ze Peng respectfully replied, "There's still a bottom left, about three feet deep."
The Mountain and Water God specifically instructed you and your master to use it without worry. He said that everything in the Nine Provinces Realm is now supported by extraterrestrial spirit crystals, so it doesn't consume much spiritual energy and won't cause any problems.
Jiaojue sighed, then took a bottle and gulped it down. After drinking half of it, he picked up three more bottles and stuffed them into his mouth.
He took the remaining five bottles and the half bottle and went into Mine No. 5. He first gave one bottle to Qingpingzi, and then let the four little dragons come out and drink the remaining half bottle.
Finally, He waved the remaining four bottles in front of Ji Rong, who was still in a tree-like shape but had already opened her mouth wide, and said, "Come out and drink them yourself."
Ji Rong immediately transformed into a long-necked, long-legged, stiff and straight rainbow phoenix. She took the four bottles of Origin Stream and, without saying a word, opened her mouth wide and poured them into her mouth.
As Ji Rong was drinking, Jiao Jue sighed from the side, "Ji Rong, Ji Rong, what have you become?"
"Thank goodness you, bird, had the self-awareness to not undergo your tribulation in the Nine Provinces Realm and didn't let us choose the Blue Star; otherwise, these two places would be completely desolate by now."
Ji Rong was drinking the source of the stream when she heard this, and immediately stopped talking. She rolled her eyes at Jiao Jue and said, "Fine, I only spent half a star spirit crystal, and you treat me like a toy!"
She drank up all the source water, transformed back into a tree, and fell into the broken purple-gold vat;
Then, she spread her roots, enveloping Jiao Jue and Qing Pingzi in the golden light emanating from the tree roots. Countless inscriptions surged on the roots, surrounding them completely. Ji Rong said with great pride, "Since you all want to know what I am, don't resist. Come and see for yourselves."
Jiaojue and Qingpingzi felt a sudden darkness before their eyes and closed them; when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a shattered void.
There was a lot of pale golden floating soil in that space;
Below the space are three overlapping pale golden pools of source water;
Above the void, a bird and a small celestial being each sat on a piece of loose earth, and said in unison to them: "I am the ancestral tree, and also the embodiment of the Dao. If you want to see, then you can see as much as you want!"
As soon as he finished speaking, countless inscriptions suddenly lit up in the void, recording the formation of the void. Seeing the new knowledge appear before his eyes, Qingpingzi was excited and wanted to use the Myriad Laws Seal, but he could not take it out no matter what he did.
