“Little Ruo, where are you? Why can’t I see you?” Shenmu asked slowly.
As a plant-type demon, the Sacred Mountain Wood did not lack longevity. Now that it had no worries about food and clothing, and had people taking care of everything, it naturally developed a slow and leisurely personality.
Human scholars told him that this was called health preservation, and most of the elderly were like this.
Just as Ji Ruo was about to reply, Gu Xing Zhou interjected, “Shenmu, you can’t see the other party on the phone. You have to video call.”
“Then hurry up and get one for me.”
“Dig me out first…”
“Why?” “If you don’t dig me out, how can I operate it for you?”
“Oh. ”
Then, he hung up.
A moment later, Gu Xing Zhou sent a video call request, and Ji Ruo accepted it.
It was also late at night at the Myriad Beast Mountain. The Divine Mountain Tree’s body was getting bigger and bigger. The crown of the tree seemed to extend into the sky. Stars flickered between the leaves. At first glance, it looked like the fruit of the Divine Mountain Tree.
The camera seemed to be a little far away, which allowed Ji Ruo to see the full picture of the Sacred Mountain Tree.
There was also a small round object in the ground beside the Sacred Mountain Tree. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be the head of the Ancient Star Continent…
“To think that I even used professional live streaming equipment to help you open the video. Why did you bury me again?” Gu Xing Zhou muttered softly. Was he going to hit the chef after eating? Even killing a donkey when it’s done is not as fast as you…”
Ji Ruo didn’t hear Gu Xing Zhou’s whisper and praised, “Grandpa Shenmu, you’re so beautiful now. The fruits look like stars.”
“These are the stars.” ” You human scholars know a lot,” Shenmu said kindly.” Not only did you help me sort out the earth veins of Myriad Beast Mountain, but you also thought of a way to bring me closer to the starry sky..
“Really? Congratulations to Grandpa Shenmu.”Ji Ruo and the Sacred Mountain Tree started chatting.
“Ahem.”
Liang Shixian coughed lightly and said, “Ji Ruo, let’s get down to business.””
“Ah, right.” “Grandpa Shenmu, can you help me contact Aunt Jinglan?” Ji Ruo asked. I have something to ask her about Myriad Beast Mountain.”
“About the Myriad Beast Mountain? You can ask me. Grandpa can help you check. ”
“Investigate?” “How do you check?” Ji Ruo asked curiously.
“All existences will leave a record in the earth vein. I have long controlled the earth vein of Myriad Beast Mountain. If you want to ask me anything, just ask me. I can directly inquire about all the past information recorded in the earth vein. I know everything that Jing Lan knows, and I know everything that she doesn’t.”
“I see.” Ji Ruo came to a realization. After congratulating the Sacred Mountain Tree again, he went straight to the main topic.”Then can you tell me why there was a geological change at the foot of the mountain when I participated in the martial examination? Was it controlled by someone?”
“Oh, you know about this too. Wasn’t the Earthworm besieged to death by the demons that occupied the mountain top? That fellow was a demon born in the earth vein, a child of the Myriad Beast Mountain’s earth vein. From the moment he was born, he had the ability to control the Myriad Beast Mountain’s earth vein. Every move he made would cause the earth to tremble and the mountains to shake…
However, that fellow was relatively lazy and usually spent most of his time sleeping. Therefore, under most circumstances, the earth veins of Myriad Beast Mountain were very stable.
It was also because of that fellow’s death that the earth vein at that time lost its control and became chaotic.
Not only the foot of the mountain, but the mountainside and the peak were also changing, but the changes were not large.”
“In other words, it is indeed the fault of those demons?””But why did they suddenly surround the Earthworm?” Ji Ruo frowned. It seems that even if they kill the Earth-overturning Dragon, it will be difficult for them to digest it in a short period of time…”
“That’s because the Earthworm woke up early.”Shen Mu suddenly pulled out Gu Xing Zhou, who was buried in the ground with only his head sticking out, and said, “There are many children like you who come to Myriad Beast Mountain every year. It’s not uncommon for them to be injured or die.
The Earthworm realized that the children’s flesh seemed to have been tampered with. Xiaogu should know what exactly it is, but I don’t know.
After the corpses are devoured by the demons, they will gain intelligence in a very short period of time. Then, they will become the king of their race.
Through their intelligence, they will lead their race to extinction…”
Ji Ruo was stunned. Was this the reason why the Goblins could speak?!
However, the flesh had been tampered with? When was that?
This kind of thing should be common, then his body should also…
“What do you mean by the flesh of those children was tampered with?” Gu Xing Zhou said unhappily. Our Great Xia would never do such a thing!”
He looked at Ji Ruo and explained,” Little Ji Ruo, this matter is considered top secret. However, the secret realm martial examination system has been abolished. The level of confidentiality has been lowered. With your achievements, you are qualified to know.”
It’s not that your flesh has been tampered with, but that there is a hidden door in our human martial arts… The specific situation is a little complicated. All you need to know is that this secret door does no harm to us humans. The reason why you left this secret door behind is to make the human-eating demons pay with their blood..
Ji Ruo suddenly understood.
The Sacred Mountain Tree continued,” In short, it was because of this that the Earth-overturning Dragon was very angry. It went to the demons at the top of the mountain to discuss and wanted to kill all the human children who came in this year to teach you humans a lesson.
Those demons were worried that the humans would go crazy and take revenge, so they did not agree. Moreover, they also coveted the power of the
Earthworm…ln their opinion, it was much easier to surround and kill an
Earthworm than to face an angry and crazy human.
So the Earthworm died.” “Ah, this…
Ji Ruo opened his mouth.
Damn, he had originally planned to find an alliance, but in the end, he was courting death…Where did this f * cking go?
“Grandpa Shenmu, what happened next?” Liang Shixian asked.”
“Later on, when they were splitting up the Earthworm, a peak four-star cat demon came to the top of the mountain…” To be honest, I couldn’t tell exactly what kind of cat demon she was. The moment she arrived, she saw the demon beasts on the mountain top dividing up the Earthworm’s corpse. She came up to them and wanted a share of the loot. Those stingy demon beasts naturally wouldn’t agree.
Having just killed the Earthworm, they were full of confidence. They wanted to eat the Cat Demon as well, so they started fighting.
Although the cat demon was not good at fighting, it was very agile and fast.
Although she was injured, she took advantage of the chaos to snatch the Dragon Ball of the Earth-overturning Dragon and seemed to have stolen something from the Moon-swallowing Toad…ln the end, she did not die and successfully escaped.”
As he spoke, the Sacred Mountain Tree shook the Ancient Star Continent that he had hung up with a tree branch and said,”Those demons didn’t know the importance of overturning the earth dragon in Myriad Beast Mountain. They attributed all the subsequent geological changes to the cat demon who snatched the Earth-overturning Dragon Pearl.
Later on, the Cat Demon met Xiaogu and was almost killed by it. After forcefully activating the Earth-overturning Dragon Pearl, it disappeared…The information after that is very vague even in the records of the earth vein. I don’t know where the cat went.”
