692: Chapter 691 Northwest Beacon Fires 2 692: Chapter 691 Northwest Beacon Fires 2 This ti coming to the Northwest, Xiang Anshi did not reveal his identity.
It was one thing to be in Red Leaf City, but coming here was another matter; there was no need to stir up a storm in the city.
He simply regarded himself as a visiting cultivator.
There were many like him in Ancient Lop.
Ever since the protective forest had been established, the Northwest had suddenly beco a very popular destination.
Everyone hoped to contribute to this human endeavor and to take a share of the spoils and gain a bit of Qi Fortune in order to harvest so benefits amid the changes of heaven and earth.
All these were within Yu Zhengxing’s calculations.
Upon arriving here, there was no need for the few of them to stay together anymore; Bai Qingqian went off to look after her Bai family’s business, and Chen Zhaodi accompanied her, mainly wanting to understand if there were any complentary aspects between the desert’s produce and the specialty products of Ying Platform.
Nie Yingnan and Xiangfei Bamboo traveled together through the protective forest.
They had seen many forests on the continent, but this was their first ti encountering a completely artificial forest.
Xiangfei Bamboo had a lot of experience in this area, having spent most of her life among bamboos.
She hoped her experience could be of help here.
Xiang Anshi’s direction was to head deeper into the desert from the protective forest.
His plan was to go at least a thousand miles, and quite possibly even further; this was a confidence in his own strength, sothing every great cultivator did to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the undead creatures.
Everyone had their own direction; such is the life of cultivators, and they did not gather together all the ti like a group of clueless Daoists.
They had their own beliefs and were not easily swayed by others.
Of course, Hou Niao’s destination was the Dark River, which was his main reason for coming here; as for the friends here, not many of the comrades who had fought side by side with him years ago remained.
Of course, the most important thing was to avoid that old guy so as not to be treated like a mule again.
Finding a secluded spot, he subrged into the sand and returned to that familiar sensation.
Although it had only been a brief three years, to a cultivator, it seed like yesterday.
During the subrgence, he could feel the abundant power of the water elent pushing up, several tis stronger than when he lacked the Water Spirit Pearl.
This was crucial for the forest belt.
In so parts where the Dark River was not deep, there was no longer a need to set up formations to et the trees’ needs.
When various forces and talents from all sides converged here, many things exceeded his considerations; this was the power of a species.
He was glad; at least he had participated in the earliest constructions—he was a pioneer.
Entering the Dark River, he imdiately felt that familiar power omnipresent in the Dark River; following a faint sensation in the water, he groped forward, and to better sense it, staying closer to the Water Spirit Pearl was better.
In the water, mbers of the Water Demon clan occasionally swam slowly by.
Although not as nurous as in the Flowing Sand River, the reproduction capabilities of these creatures were still astonishing.
In just a few years, there were already appearances of fish schools.
It can be imagined that in the future, becoming spirits or monsters would not be few, for here existed the power of the Water Spirit Pearl.
Occasionally, human cultivators also passed by.
Their purpose, without exception, was the sa as Hou Niao’s—to co here and feel the True Essence of the Five Elents of Outer Space.
Humans and Water Demons coexisted peacefully in the Dark River, achieving a subtle balance.
If the entire Jinxiu Continent could be like this, then Jinxiu would be the paradise of cultivation; unfortunately, such a fragile balance was only temporary, ford under the pressure of undead creatures.
Sooner or later, it would be broken.
As the creator, he hoped that day would co as late as possible.
The Water Spirit Pearl is not just in the form of a single bead.
Others might not understand, but for him, who had carried the bead for half a year, the understanding was naturally deeper.
Rather than saying it is just a bead, it’s better to say it is a power of law.
When it gathers the power of the water elent, it becos a clear and transparent bead; when it exerts its power, it might vanish into the invisible, turning into the power of law to affect the entire Dark River.
The Water Elent Pearl was also growing, with the entire Jinxiu Continent’s water elent as its source of power.
From this perspective, it was not sothing an individual could control.
Integrating the water elent laws of outer space and the inherent characteristics of the continent, it would eventually grow strong until it beca the Water of the Five Elents of Jinxiu Continent, the Five Elents Water is it.
At that mont, it would truly fulfill the mission of the Water Spirit Pearl, and there would be no more a treasure called the Water Spirit Pearl.
Why didn’t the Nascent Transformation ancestors of Jinxiu Continent ever partake in the struggle for the Five Elents Pearls?
It was the sa with the Earth Spirit Pearl, and now with the Water Spirit Pearl.
Did they truly despise these treasures and cleanse themselves of desires?
No, they are the real sages who understand the Great Dao.
They knew that fighting was useless and could only cause problems.
That’s why they let matters take their course.
So under such circumstances, he actually couldn’t find the Water Spirit Pearl, because the current Water Spirit Pearl had already transford into the power of law, pervading the entire Dark River.
But this integration was not perfect, akin to how salt dissolves in water—so areas were saltier, so fresher, and not balanced.
This showed that the Water Spirit Pearl had not yet fully adapted to Jinxiu Continent.
The place he was heading was that saltier section.
It was also the destination of most cultivators, and likewise, where most Great Water Demons stayed.
One can imagine that for a long ti to co, this place would be a hotspot frequented by all kinds of cultivation creatures.
Precisely for this reason, the undead creatures’ attempts to destroy the underground Dark River had never succeeded, being t each ti by a head-on blow from both human cultivators and groups of Water Demons.
No mobilization needed, nor grand doctrines necessary; cutting off one’s Daoist Path is like killing one’s parents, and no one can tolerate it.
This was a section of the Dark River that stretched on for hundreds of miles; diving into it, one would discover that the density of cultivators and Water Demons greatly increased, almost as if what had been a river before had now beco a swimming pool?
Every cultivation creature relies on sothing; humans depend on systems, while Water Demons rely on instincts, each reaching the sa destination by different paths.
Hou Niao sighed inwardly, this situation was not anticipated when he had initially placed the Water Spirit Pearl here.
He had no regrets, nor did he ever think he should enjoy its benefits alone.
The Five Elents belonged to nature, not to him alone.
Understanding this left him with no regrets.
Moreover, just as different disciples under one master achieve differently, under the sa Water Spirit Pearl, everyone’s enlightennt varies greatly.
He was confident that he was not inferior to anyone, as he was the first to co into contact and had so inexplicable connections with this Water Spirit Pearl.
He chose a relatively quiet spot and, like other cultivation creatures, began his deeper insight into the Water of the Five Elents.
For most cultivators, the boundary of the Tongtian Realm itself limited their gains.
He did not overly pursue the essence of the Great Dao; he ca here with one purpose—to release the Five Elents Mysterious Light, using the blue Mysterious Light to confirm what he had learned.
Put learning into practice.
