Chapter 77: The World Propped Up by Spiritual Roots

Tian Yuan, carrying Huluwa, appeared in the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space in a flash.

No sooner had he appeared than he immediately looked toward the Eastern Land.

Four light curtains stood tall at the foot of Mount Buzhou, clear and striking under the gray firmament.

Having been away for only a thousand years, each of the light curtains had expanded to a radius of a thousand miles.

After just a few careful glances, Tian Yuan's eyes lit up instantly.

Within the shimmering light curtains, he vaguely sensed the aura of other life.

Astonished, Tian Yuan arrived at the foot of Mount Buzhou in an instant, with Huluwa following closely behind.

The area covered by the light curtains was not small, yet they were only about a hundred meters high, with howling, chaotic wills above them.

From time to time, stray ghostly lights would crash into the light curtains, instantly turning into wisps of black smoke and dissipating on the spot.

Many of the remaining wills seemed to sense the danger within and fled into the air, yet many still crashed inside.

Amidst the glowing light, the light curtains were slowly expanding at a faint pace.

Seeing Tian Yuan's surprise, Huluwa tilted his little head and said excitedly, "Xiaozhu and the others are growing very well, and they have even improved the environment inside the light curtains."

Patting Huluwa's little head, Tian Yuan strode into the light curtain.

Green hills and clear waters, overgrown with weeds, and surrounded by ten thousand flowers—where was the previous desolation? It was truly full of vibrant life.

Acquired Spirit Creatures; these flowers, plants, and trees were all Acquired Spirit Creatures.

At this moment, Tian Yuan understood somewhat why Bitter Bamboo and other Innate Spiritual Roots exhaled Postnatal Spiritual Qi; it was highly likely to give birth to these Acquired Spirit Creatures.

"Hah! It seems that before long, this place will also turn into a world full of vitality." Tian Yuan stroked the Bitter Bamboo, feeling very satisfied in his heart.

The function of the Spiritual Root far exceeded his imagination; it had actually propped up a world directly within this space.

Acquired Spirit Creatures merely had inferior origins, but this was the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space, and what flowed in the Earth Veins was also Innate Spiritual Qi.

With Acquired Spirit Creatures nourished by Innate Spiritual Qi, they would be no worse than those in the Primordial World in the future.

Once this space grew larger, perhaps he could capture some Demon Beasts to bring inside, so that the weak members of the Wu Clan could also survive here in the future.

Those fellows of the Wu Clan who only knew how to fight and kill should be confined to this space.

Creatures that disrupt the harmony of the Primordial World ought to be captured and brought here to do hard labor.

Pangu underwent the Opening of Heaven and his body transformed into all things; now it was time for them to repay the Primordial World.

Huluwa walked up and said even more excitedly, "Father Mountain! Xiaozhu told me that it might be about to give birth to consciousness."

"What?" Tian Yuan's expression was one of great shock.

Countless Great Eras had passed since Pangu's Opening of Heaven, and these Innate Spiritual Roots had never developed intelligence, yet now there was actually a change.

Filled with joy, Tian Yuan hurriedly examined the Bitter Bamboo before him carefully.

But upon close inspection, he did not sense any fluctuations of intelligence. He sank his consciousness into Mount Buzhou, but still discovered nothing at all.

Huluwa was an Innate Spiritual Root that had taken human form; perhaps they had their own unique way of communicating.

"Father Mountain, it won't be that fast."

Huluwa walked up and then said with some confusion, "But hearing what Xiaozhu said, it seems to be a bit different."

Hearing this, Tian Yuan's expression was somewhat stunned; he did not understand what the "different" that Huluwa spoke of was like.

But regardless, the Bitter Bamboo giving birth to consciousness was absolutely a joyous event of the highest order.

The light curtains propped up at present were merely the other party's instinct; once it had intelligence, the speed of purifying the world would only be faster.

He strolled around the remaining few light curtains, and they had all likewise given birth to many acquired plants.

"Let's go! Let's go for a walk in the Earth Veins!" Tian Yuan was very happy and strode toward the Main Vein in the very center.

With the Tribulation Qi hanging densely in the air, the will of Mount Buzhou was seriously affected, and coupled with the many Wu people in the other Branch Veins, Tian Yuan intended to throw all the Wu Clan members he had captured this time into the Main Vein. The Main Vein was vast and grand, and currently, only a few Great Witches like Kuafu were working there; the progress was too slow.

Huluwa nodded, noticing the Mysterious Yellow Qi covering Tian Yuan's arm, where wisps of cracks could be seen.

"Father Mountain, are you hurt?" Huluwa was shocked.

Tian Yuan just lowered his head to look, and replied casually, "A minor injury, it's nothing!"

Although he had the Innate Wutu Divine Thunder to resist, it could be considered taking a direct hit from a Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak Ancestral Witch. That it only cracked a little already made Tian Yuan very satisfied.

The Law of Force indeed had an inexplicable boost to physical cultivation; no wonder the Wu Clan craved it so much.

The two had just set off when they heard a rumbling sound behind them, and thick Mysterious Yellow Qi spewed out.

"Father Mountain, your power has recovered a bit more!" Huluwa looked behind him, his face full of excitement.

Tian Yuan nodded, also brimming with joy; the laws pouring in from the void had become much thicker.

The faint fluctuations within his body meant that he was not far from a breakthrough.

Glancing at his arm, the recovery speed of the injury had also quickened slightly.

The first battle between the Witch and Demon was not far off; he had to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak quickly.

Inside the Earth Vein, Kuafu and the others looked up at the towering Mount Buzhou through the flowing golden light.

Under the gray firmament, a divine mountain shrouded in thick Mysterious Yellow Qi stood tall, emitting an ancient and vast aura.

Looking at it for a few more moments, it was as if Father God stood proudly between heaven and earth, looking down upon them.

"Father God's will has grown stronger again!" Kuafu's expression was solemn, his eyes filled with reverence.

They had seen this scene many times, but each time it still made them feel excited.

Houyi, Xingtian, and the others on the side did not speak, but they all wore the same expression.

After coming to this space, they had personally felt the step-by-step strengthening of Father God's will, until it was as thick as it was now.

They did not know how many Earth Veins there were here, but the purification of the Main Vein before them still seemed to have no end in sight.

They were suddenly somewhat expectant; if all the Earth Veins were completely cleared, what kind of scene would that be?

The few people looking up at the divine mountain lowered their heads slightly and cast their gazes forward.

Within that flowing golden spiritual energy, a burly figure came stepping forward.

Tian Yuan!

Although he had grown quite a bit taller, Kuafu and the others recognized him immediately.

Kuafu's face showed annoyance, and the fighting spirit in his eyes was undisguised.

He revered Father God and respected the Ancestral Witch Houtu, but he could not bring himself to respect Tian Yuan from the bottom of his heart.

This guy was too detestable, provoking the Wu Clan like this; he didn't know what was wrong with Ancestral Witch Houtu, as she didn't mind at all and even made them address him as a senior.

Xingtian shook the shield and axe in his palms, grumbling in his mouth to express his displeasure.

Tian Yuan, who was walking over, felt very satisfied as he looked at the several Great Witches who looked displeased.

It had been several thousand years, and they had all broken through, all reaching the mid-stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Kuafu's strength was the greatest, showing faint signs of another breakthrough, almost catching up to the Essence Refining Stage of an Ancestral Witch.

"Tian Yuan, why have you come? Are you here to mock us?" Houyi's face darkened, very displeased by the way the other party looked him up and down with such a satisfied expression.

That expression was as if he were looking at his own beloved pet.

Kuafu slammed the wooden staff in his palm, and Xingtian tilted his shield and axe, both venting the dissatisfaction in their hearts.

If not for Houtu's instructions, they would definitely have rushed up to have a fight! (End of this chapter)
