Chapter 175: The Earth Book Develops the Northern Earth Vein

~12 min read 2,214 words

In a canyon on Mount Buzhou, a powerful aura suddenly surged upward.

With five-colored rays of light shining and various laws gushing forth, Huluwa flew up and laughed aloud.

"Haha, I have finally stepped into the late stage of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal!" Feeling the powerful fluctuations within his body, his small face was filled with excitement.

With Nuwa proving the Dao to Hunyuan and Jieyin and Zhunti becoming Saints, Huluwa was also very anxious.

Although there was still a significant distance to go before proving the Dao to Hunyuan, Huluwa was still very satisfied.

For a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, every improvement in realm is the difference between heaven and earth.

In the distance, Gungun flew over and loudly congratulated him: "Congratulations to the little master for your great increase in Dao practice; may you soon prove the Hunyuan."

Huluwa nodded, swept his gaze over the other, and said gently: "You must also practice diligently; you are still lingering in the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, you must step into the Hunyuan Golden Immortal as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Gungun gave an awkward smile, but still nodded repeatedly.

Achieving the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal had already completely exceeded his imagination. As for stepping into the Hunyuan Golden Immortal, how could it be that simple?

His foundation was not considered very powerful, so he would be content if he could achieve the Hunyuan Golden Immortal in his lifetime.

"Roar!"

Just as the two were speaking, a roar suddenly exploded in the sky in the distance.

"Eh! What is that?" Gungun exclaimed, his eyes filled with surprise.

Huluwa also looked in that direction, his small face full of shock.

This is the Heavenly Pillar; now that the might of Mount Buzhou has greatly increased, ordinary living beings would have terrifying pressure descend upon them just by getting close, so how could they dare to roar and shout here?

Little did they know, before the two could look closely, roars came one after another from the distant horizon, accompanied by the sound of thundering footsteps.

"Strange! What happened in the Northern Land?" Huluwa frowned slightly and leaped into the air.

Standing proudly in the sky, he looked over and was suddenly stunned.

On the northern horizon, a gray thin line was rapidly approaching Mount Buzhou.

Looking closely, one could see living beings with strange shapes rushing forward, scrambling to be first.

The dust they kicked up almost covered the entire northern sky, surging over like a wave.

"Fierce Beasts, so many Fierce Beasts!" Gungun exclaimed loudly, his small face full of confusion.

In the distant ancient era, Fierce Beasts were once the protagonists of this world, but now they are just the lowest-level living beings in the Primordial World.

They have no intelligence and only act on the instinct to survive, so how could they dare to collide with Mount Buzhou?

Huluwa wrinkled his small face, his heart equally filled with confusion.

These dense swarms of Fierce Beasts could already be called a Beast Tide; there must be someone behind them fanning the flames.

"Have the Fierce Beasts of the North gone mad?" An exclamation came from the side; Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi stood in the air, puzzled.

They had been meditating in Fire Cloud Cave, not knowing that a heaven-shaking roar had come, and then they saw the scene before them.

No one paid attention to the incoming Fierce Beasts; everyone looked up toward the north.

After looking closely for a while, Hongyun was a bit puzzled that Tian Yuan had not appeared.

These Fierce Beasts were not to be feared, but since things were so strange, there was no reason for Tian Yuan not to show himself.

Sure enough, as those many Fierce Beasts approached, a layer of faint golden light rippled out from Mount Buzhou.

Wherever the golden light passed, all the incoming Fierce Beasts vanished into thin air, completely without any power to resist.

Hongyun and the others did not even make a move; they just waited in the air and watched.

Sweeping his eyes over the many figures wiped out by the golden light, Hongyun spoke loudly: "Zhenyuanzi, let us go to the north and take a look!"

Since Tian Yuan had not appeared, Hongyun naturally thought of heading north.

After speaking, he leaped up and fled in the direction from which the Fierce Beasts were surging.

Only a moment later, Hongyun stopped in the air and looked back in confusion.

Zhenyuanzi had not moved and was still standing in place.

Hongyun called out a few times, but seeing no response, he immediately flew back.

Just as he was about to call out again, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he looked at Zhenyuanzi with immediate joy.

A faint Dao Rhyme was emanating from his good brother; Hongyun was all too familiar with this scene.

Before Hongyun could look closely, he saw an object fly out from Zhenyuanzi.

It was a precious mirror, with the two characters 'Heaven and Earth' inscribed in the center in Innate Dao Script, and golden textures covering the surroundings, resembling the trends of the mountains, rivers, and lakes of the Primordial World; it was precisely the Earth Book, the Earth Membrane.

The Earth Book flew into the air, and one could see wisps of gray energy emerging from the place swept by the golden light under Mount Buzhou, falling onto the precious mirror.

The Earth Book shook slightly, and the observant Hongyun clearly noticed that a golden texture on the precious mirror seemed to brighten.

This sudden change also startled Huluwa and the other, and they hurriedly flew forward.

Below, the Fierce Beasts were surging, each one annihilated in the golden light rippling from Mount Buzhou.

And on the Earth Book floating in front of Zhenyuanzi, a texture was gradually glowing.

"There is such an opportunity?" Huluwa widened his eyes, his gaze filled with disbelief.

He naturally knew the name of the Earth Book; it was also quite adept at combing through Earth Veins in the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space, but how it could be connected to these Fierce Beasts was something Huluwa truly found hard to understand. Hongyun did not speak; he was also unclear about this sudden change.

Otherwise, he would not have flown away only to discover that Zhenyuanzi had not followed.

Under the gaze of the few, Zhenyuanzi slowly opened his eyes, though his expression was somewhat complex.

"Zhenyuanzi! What happened?" Hongyun couldn't wait to greet him.

He had obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi in the Purple Heaven Palace, later had a great opportunity in the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space, and finally obtained an Innate Supreme Treasure; he could be said to have had continuous good fortune.

Yet his own good brother had been plain and ordinary.

Now that he saw the other had gained something, Hongyun was naturally very happy.

Meeting Hongyun's eager gaze, Zhenyuanzi smiled calmly and then said softly: "This is perhaps my opportunity."

After speaking, Zhenyuanzi grabbed the Earth Book in front of him and threw it toward the Northern Land.

At once, that precious mirror grew in the wind, instantly blotting out the sky and covering a vast expanse of the firmament.

Immediately, under the astonished gazes of Hongyun and the others, the Earth Book let out a humming sound and fell directly toward the ground.

With rich Dao Rhyme flickering, the massive Earth Book submerged into the Northern Land and vanished in the blink of an eye.

The many Fierce Beasts that had been charging from afar instantly shattered on the spot one by one, turning into wisps of gray energy that all burrowed into the ground.

"Zhenyuanzi, your Earth Book..." Hongyun's face revealed astonishment.

Although he still did not know what had happened, he could see before his eyes that the Earth Membrane had merged into one with the Northern Land.

Zhenyuanzi was a being who had attained the Dao from a Ginseng Fruit, and he had not refined his original form. The only treasure he could bring out was this companion Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Earth Book. Now, he had actually— "Brother Dao, your righteousness is great! Huluwa admires you!" Huluwa walked up, his small face filled with surprise.

Although he also did not know the reason, the fusion of the Earth Book with the Northern Land would definitely be beneficial to the recovery of the Northern Earth Veins.

Huluwa was very clear about the situation within the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space; the North was a stretch of scorched earth, with not a shadow of an Earth Vein to be seen.

The Earth Book was inherently linked to Earth Veins; perhaps this was its greatest function.

Looking at the few people nearby, Zhenyuanzi smiled softly: "Compared to Brother Dao Tian Yuan, this little sacrifice of mine is nothing!"

At the very beginning, he had indeed felt some reluctance; having been with his companion spiritual treasure for so many Great Eras, he still had quite a lot of affection for it.

But thinking of Tian Yuan's dedication to the Primordial World, how could he be indecisive over a mere Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure?

"Haha! Truly worthy of being my friend, Hongyun! I have another treasure gestating in my Fire Cloud Cave, and I will give it to you later!" Patting Zhenyuanzi on the shoulder, Hongyun was full of generosity.

When he obtained the All-Heaven Celebration Cloud, there was a spiritual treasure gestating within it, and Hongyun estimated that it would not be long before that spiritual treasure was born.

Hearing this, Zhenyuanzi's eyes lit up immediately, and he teased: "If it is a supreme treasure, I fear you, Hongyun, will not be willing to part with it."

His relationship with Hongyun was deep, and there were almost no secrets between the two.

When they first met, Hongyun had anxiously dragged him along to show off; Zhenyuanzi was naturally well aware of this.

A supreme treasure had already been born in the Fire Cloud Cave, and there was a very high probability that the second one would also be a supreme treasure.

"I, Hongyun, keep my word; even if it is a supreme treasure, I will give it to you!" Hongyun waved his hand, looking unconcerned.

He did not like fighting, and having the defensive supreme treasure, the All-Heaven Celebration Cloud, was enough.

If a supreme treasure were truly to emerge from the Fire Cloud Cave, it would not matter if he gave it to Zhenyuanzi.

Seeing Hongyun like this, Zhenyuanzi was also moved in his heart; it was not in vain that he had worried so much for this friend earlier.

Huluwa had no interest in the two of them trading magic treasures and asked with slight confusion: "Brother Dao, what is going on with those Fierce Beasts?"

It was normal for the Earth Book to merge with the Northern Land, but these Fierce Beasts were truly too strange.

They came charging madly as if to collide with Mount Buzhou, only to be absorbed by the Earth Book.

Hearing this, Hongyun also turned his gaze toward Zhenyuanzi.

Glancing at the suddenly quiet foot of Mount Buzhou, Zhenyuanzi shook his head and replied: "I am not sure either!"

The Earth Book was a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure, so crushing a few Fierce Beasts was not worth mentioning, but he also did not know the reason for those gray mists.

Just now, when Mount Buzhou crushed the Fierce Beasts, he felt the Earth Book within his body vibrate slightly and fly into the air on its own.

After the Fierce Beasts were crushed by the golden light, weak energy drifted over and burrowed entirely into the Earth Book, and that energy was extremely compatible with the Earth Book.

The many golden patterns on the Earth Membrane already represented the trends of the many Earth Veins and Spiritual Veins of the Primordial World.

Earlier, the Fierce Beasts ravaged the land and wantonly destroyed the Primordial World; now, they had actually become nourishment for the Earth Veins? Hongyun was stunned and somewhat surprised; after all, the Earth Book was Zhenyuanzi's companion spiritual treasure.

Zhenyuanzi would absolutely not lie to him. Frowning, Hongyun looked toward the vast North: "Looking at it this way, I still have to go to the North for a walk!"

As the Humanity Lord, even he had not seen anything; the matter was clearly not simple.

Although the North was desolate, it was still part of the Primordial World, and now that it had merged with the Earth Book, it was even more necessary to go there.

The few people in the air looked at each other, and without hesitation, they all fled toward the Northern Land.

On the distant horizon, Fierce Beasts continued to charge over, only to shatter on the spot instantly.

The Earth Membrane that had merged into the ground continued to expand rapidly, and one could see with the naked eye that Fierce Beasts were being annihilated in the distance.

As it absorbed more and more energy, the Earth Book crushed the Fierce Beasts faster and faster.

The Fierce Beasts that had been ravaging the Northern Land were wiped out by the Earth Book just as they were about to approach Mount Buzhou.
