Chapter 339: Meeting Eywa

An elderly female Na'vi wearing strange clothes woven from red fabric walked over. On her face and skin, wrinkles could clearly be seen.

"This is our Tsahìk, and also my mother." Neytiri said in a low voice, and at the same time walked forward. "Mother, this is the distinguished guest I brought, Ye Nan."

In the Na'vi language, Tsahìk meant the High Priestess, the High Priestess specifically for Eywa.

"I know. Eywa has told me everything." Mo'at said.

"A very good child. Eywa has seen your arrival, Eywa has seen your future path. Are you interested in becoming the Toruk Makto for all of us Na'vi?" Mo'at walked in front of Ye Nan and smiled lightly.

Seeing this smile, Ye Nan's hair stood on end, his entire spirit became unprecedentedly active, and all his headaches and pain were cured without medicine.

He felt a crisis. This crisis didn't come from Mo'at, but from what she said: 'Eywa has seen your future path'. This sentence made Ye Nan's hair stand on end.

Ye Nan never thought that Eywa was just a legend. When he learned from the Great Serpent that this Eywa was very likely the will of this planet, he was extra vigilant.

He knew very well that wanting to deceive Eywa carried great risks. He was prepared to take risks, but he never expected that he would have his future seen through by Eywa before he even met her.

"What exactly did Eywa see? Does Eywa really have such great ability to see my future?"

Thick question marks popped up in Ye Nan's heart. Seeing through the future—this kind of thing sounded fantasy no matter how you looked at it, but Eywa's existence itself was very fantasy.

"Great Serpent." Ye Nan closed his eyes, connected with the Great Serpent through spiritual connection. The next moment, he opened his eyes, looked at Mo'at, and said: "Mo'at, what did you see?"

"Saw your future." Mo'at smiled and played a riddle with Ye Nan.

"Just saw the future?" Ye Nan smiled mysteriously. "Besides the future, what else did you see?"

Hearing this, Mo'at was immediately confused. Besides the past, present, and future, what else was there to see? The past and present were things that had already happened and were happening, and there was no need to look at them at all. But what did Ye Nan mean by 'besides the future, what else did you see'?

Mo'at didn't understand, but she kept this question in her heart. On the surface, she remained mysterious. "Besides the future, I can't see anything else."

"Sure enough." A hint of realization appeared on Ye Nan's face.

He had just communicated with the Great Serpent and told the Great Serpent his question. The Great Serpent told him that Eywa could not see his future, even if Eywa was the will of planet Pan Duola.

The only possibility was that Eywa was pretending, pretending to be mysterious and profound, maintaining her so-called majesty, making her believers worship her and believe in her.

Sure enough, Ye Nan asked Mo'at 'besides the future, what else did you see?' but Mo'at couldn't answer. Her spirit paused for a moment.

"Sure enough what?" Facing Ye Nan, Mo'at became more and more confused. She felt she couldn't see through this little guy from another tribe in front of her. She had this thought for the first time and immediately felt powerless.

"Nothing." Ye Nan's half-hidden, hesitant expression made Mo'at's imagination run wild. When Mo'at was completely confused by Ye Nan, he said: "I just wanted to see Mother Eywa."

Eywa couldn't see Ye Nan's future, which removed all the awe in Ye Nan's heart. At this moment, he realized that the so-called Eywa was not omnipotent.

Planetary will was actually not fantasy. In the field of science, some people had mentioned the Gaia hypothesis. They believed that the Earth or the universe possessed a great will; this was the Gaia hypothesis. Simply put, the Earth possessed a consciousness, and this consciousness was composed of all the creatures on Earth together.

"As long as all life on planet Pan Duola is killed, the Gaia consciousness will also perish." An evil thought popped up in Ye Nan's heart, and then he himself was startled by his own thought.

"Why would I have such an evil thought?" Ye Nan asked himself. He never thought of himself as a good person, but he also didn't think of himself as a bad person. Heinous crimes had nothing to do with him. Exterminating all life on a planet—even a butcher like Hitler didn't have such evil deeds.

If Ye Nan really did this, he would probably be notorious throughout the entire galaxy.

"But I have to admit, this idea is a very good idea." Ye Nan's heart unconsciously leaned towards this idea.

Although this sudden thought of his was very evil, the blow to a planetary will like Eywa would be absolutely devastating. Anyway, what he needed was the environment of this planet, not the creatures of this planet.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing Ye Nan suddenly standing still, Mo'at couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing, I was just communicating with Mother Eywa." Ye Nan spoke nonsense.

"Communicating with Mother Eywa?" Mo'at looked at Ye Nan suspiciously, muttering in her heart: "How could he communicate with Eywa? Isn't it only the Tsahìk who can communicate with Mother Eywa?"

The Tsahìk was the High Priestess, and she was also the wife of the Toruk Makto. One held royal power, and one held divine power. There had never been an example of a Na'vi other than the Tsahìk who could communicate with Eywa.

As for why her daughter could communicate with Eywa, that was entirely because her daughter Neytiri was also a Tsahìk. In fact, there had never been only one Tsahìk; she had many. Basically, every tribe had a Tsahìk, and some tribes even had two.

It was just that Eywa's importance to Ye Nan made her have to believe Ye Nan's words. Of course, this also had to do with the fact that the Na'vi didn't dare to joke about Eywa casually. In the hearts of all Na'vi, Eywa was sacred and inviolable. Any act of lying was a blasphemy against Eywa, which required capital punishment.

But unfortunately, Ye Nan was not a Na'vi. The Eywa that was sacred in the hearts of the Na'vi was exactly Ye Nan's target, so Ye Nan could unscrupulously lie about Eywa.

"But you'd better go meet Mother Eywa. Mother Eywa hopes to see you." Mo'at said.

"Of course." Ye Nan agreed heartily. Meeting Eywa was his original idea for coming to the Omaticaya tribe. He wanted to see if Eywa could expose him. He was fully prepared to face Eywa.

Ye Nan jumped down from the Thanator, lightly touched his braid with the Thanator's neural connection tissue, and transmitted his thoughts over.

"Wait for me here. Wait for my orders. If anything is wrong, leave here."

Ye Nan and the Thanator had established some affection in a short time. He didn't want to see the Thanator die here in vain, in case he was seen through by Eywa.

Roar!

Although it didn't understand why its master said this, the Thanator still faithfully agreed.

"Good." Ye Nan patted the Thanator's back and smiled with satisfaction.

"Wait a minute." Tsu'tey suddenly jumped out. "He cannot become our Toruk Makto. He is a person from another tribe."

Tsu'tey's words immediately caused the other people in the tribe to clamor...

"He is not a person of our Omaticaya tribe. He is not qualified to become Toruk Makto."

"Toruk Makto should subdue the Ikran. He is not qualified."

"Only people from our Omaticaya tribe can become Toruk Makto."

One Na'vi after another roared, clamoring to drive Ye Nan away.

Only the tribe that became Toruk Makto had the qualification to get close to the great Mother Eywa and have a safe environment. Otherwise, they would have to compete with beasts for territory, compete with beasts for food, and live in fear all day long. They didn't want to live like that.

They knew very well that once Ye Nan became Toruk Makto, their Omaticaya tribe would have to move away from here. They were reluctant to leave the peaceful environment, so they had to stop Ye Nan from becoming Toruk Makto.

"Shut up." Mo'at's angry roar suppressed everyone's voices. She said angrily: "Do you want to disobey Eywa's orders?"

"We don't mean to disobey Eywa's orders, it's just that the Na'vi customs cannot be changed." The clan leader said firmly.

"How could you also..." Mo'at looked at the clan leader, her husband, in disbelief. She didn't understand why her husband wanted to disobey Eywa's orders. Didn't he know that disobeying Eywa's orders would bring Eywa's disgust? By then, there would be no place for them on the entire planet Pan Duola.

The clan leader naturally knew the look his wife was giving him, but he also had his own unspeakable difficulties.

According to the Na'vi rules, only the tribe of Toruk Makto could live near Eywa, receive Eywa's protection, not suffer disasters all year round, not need to compete with beasts for territory, and not need to guard against beasts that might arrive at any time. It could be said to be extremely peaceful.

And the Omaticaya tribe had already produced two generations of Toruk Makto in a row. The tribesmen had long been accustomed to peace. To them, this place was their home. Wanting them to give up this place was simply impossible. Any outsider who attempted to become Toruk Makto would become an enemy of the Omaticaya tribe.

But he couldn't tell his wife these words, because he knew that in his wife's heart, Eywa was even more important than himself, the husband.

"I actually agree with what Tsu'tey said. Although Eywa is our Na'vi mother, the Na'vi traditions absolutely cannot be abolished. If he wants to become Toruk Makto, he must subdue the Ikran. Otherwise, our Omaticaya tribe will not agree first."

"Don't agree, don't agree..."

The tribesmen of the Omaticaya tribe clamored one after another. Letting them leave Mother Eywa's embrace and go compete with beasts for territory was equivalent to letting a civilized person return to being a primitive person. No matter what, they were unwilling.

Although they believed in Eywa, when their own interests were damaged, they naturally forgot their faith and chose to maintain their own interests.

"Does the Omaticaya tribe really think that Toruk Makto is something you can monopolize?" Ye Nan sneered. He looked at these clamoring Omaticaya tribesmen and said: "Since you want to stop me from becoming Toruk Makto, then show your strength."

"According to our Na'vi customs, the person who conquers the Ikran is Toruk Makto, the co-lord of our Na'vi."

"Come, I accept your challenge, and I also welcome your challenge. But please don't stop me from meeting Mother Eywa. Otherwise, I will spread your affairs to all the tribes and let all the tribes together crusade against your Omaticaya tribe."

"You dare." The clan leader's face turned blue, his annoyance overflowing.

"Why wouldn't I dare?" Ye Nan looked at the clan leader amusedly. "You did something wrong yourselves, yet you don't allow people to talk about it everywhere. You really think you, this Toruk Makto, are the co-lord of our Na'vi, and can do whatever you want."

"Enough." Mo'at roared, suppressing all voices. "Eywa will not care about the Toruk Makto matter. But if any of you dare to blaspheme Mother Eywa again, don't blame Mother Eywa for bringing down her anger."

"Don't dare." The clan leader lowered his head and said.

"Sure enough, even Mo'at will consider for her own tribe." Ye Nan flicked his fingers and smiled lightly, thinking to himself, "But this has nothing to do with me. These so-called struggles will all turn to ashes when my Earthling army descends."

"Hmph, the Na'vi's Toruk Makto, I really don't take it seriously, because I am the Emperor of the Space-Time Empire." ===== CHAPTER 340 =====
