Chapter 1284: The Tengu who wanted to return to his ancestral home, Li Chuan who didn't understand
In terms of strength, in Yecheng, even the Taoist genius from Longhu Mountain and the Dragon Emperor from the Imperial Capital would not be his match.

This has nothing to do with talent or the level of supernatural powers. It is just a temporary lead caused by the dividends of the times.

They will definitely be above him in the future. After all, the mountain range in Yecheng is just an ordinary hill, without any legend or fame.

One day, the power they possess will surpass this ordinary mountain, but before that, there will still be a gap between them.

Because of Li Chuan's existence, there has not been a beast tide in Yecheng for a long time. Even mutant creatures rarely appear in the city because of him.

After all, he himself is a mountain, and the life on the mountain is naturally under his jurisdiction. It is not difficult for him to stop them from going down the mountain.

However, sometimes he would deliberately omit some mutant creatures, and then notify Yecheng's Spiritual Energy Bureau to organize resistance and elimination.

Although he was not well educated, he knew that nanny-style protection would not help anyone grow; and he could not protect them forever.

Those mutant creatures will eventually surpass him in strength. If the people in Yecheng do not grow, even if China can provide support as quickly as possible, many people will die in the beast tide.

Perhaps by then, not only will no one be grateful for his protection, but they will also blame him for it.

They might blame him for protecting them too well, causing them to forget how terrifying the mutant creatures are, or they might blame him for protecting them so well in the past but being able to do nothing now.

Then he stubbornly attributed all the deaths to him.

Although there is no evidence to show that they would do this, he is also a human being. How could he not have any understanding of human nature?

However, these are things of the future, and because of [Entering the Tao], such "evil" has become less and less common among humans. Perhaps in the future, these "evil" will disappear from the hearts of humans.

At that time, they will definitely be able to look at the problem from the most correct perspective and get the most correct answer.

On the top of the mountain, Li Chuan's spirit sat quietly on a tall rock, his eyes fixed on the bright moon in the sky, a gentle and deep smile showing on his face, as if immersed in endless tranquility and peace.

This is Li Chuan’s favorite thing to do. He likes to sit here at night, enjoying the quiet atmosphere and waiting for the dawn.

I thought today would be a peaceful day, but soon, a figure suddenly appeared in the air, as if it had broken through some invisible barrier. Its body was shaking and extremely unstable. Finally, it fell out of control and landed directly in front of Li Chuan.

"."

Faced with this sudden situation, after a brief silence, Li Chuan's spirit was instantly awakened from tranquility. The gentle smile on his face gradually solidified, and a hint of astonishment and confusion flashed in his eyes.

He stood up and stared at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, frowning slightly, as if trying to understand what was going on.

"Yecheng's restricted-air formation against mutant birds has my spiritual energy blessing, and mutant birds below the first sequence cannot break through. So this is a mutant bird of the first sequence level?"

"But with this appearance, it's hard to tell what kind of bird it is a mutation from."

The formations in every Chinese city are blessed with the spiritual energy of the city’s psychics. After all, formations require spiritual energy to maintain.

Although humans have not yet discovered any minerals with rich spiritual energy, they have developed devices that can store spiritual energy; however, because the range of the formation is too large and a lot of spiritual energy is required, it needs to be replenished by sequence-level psychics every once in a while.

Ye Cheng is special because of his reasons. This mountain is set as the core of Ye Cheng's formation, so he can use his own spiritual energy to influence the formation according to his will, and enhance the power of the formation without worrying about affecting the formation.

Of course, the consumption is also huge, but he has no worries about spiritual energy.

Also because of his blessing, mutant birds below the first-sequence level are basically unable to attack the city. The fact that this mutant bird can break through the constraints of the formation only shows that his strength has reached the first-sequence level.

However, he should have just entered the first sequence not long ago. After forcibly breaking through the restrictions of the formation, his own spiritual energy was almost consumed.

Otherwise, even basic flying would not be impossible.

However, he had seen many mutant birds, but this was the first time he had seen one that looked so strange. It actually looked a bit like a dog.

Moreover, the face and nose were quite long, and of a rare red color. If it weren't for the dense hair covering the body of animals, he would have really doubted what this thing was.

Especially the wings behind it, which do not look like bird wings at all, but rather a crescent-shaped shape. If its wings are combined together, it looks like a crescent moon. Combined with the silver color of the wings, it is very likely to appear like a silver moon in the sky.

Were there any birds that looked like this before the resurrection of spiritual energy? Or were there any birds that looked a bit like it now?
It seems there really isn't.

Or maybe there is, but he doesn't know it.

After thinking about it, Li Chuan shook his head. He was just an ordinary person who had never been to college and didn't like reading. How could he know these things?

He raised his head slightly and used his spiritual energy to restore the hole in the air. Fortunately, this formation inherited the characteristics of China's original weapons: "cheap" and "sturdy". As long as the core was not damaged, he could use spiritual energy to restore it. Otherwise, he would have to contact the Spiritual Energy Bureau.

It's funny to say, but he is actually quite introverted. He doesn't like talking to people unless it is necessary.

Becoming a mountain god may be a very lonely thing for others, and one’s freedom is restricted and one cannot leave Yecheng, but for him, it is actually quite happy.

He didn't like going to other places, especially crowded places.

"How to deal with it?"

"After killing him, will we let the people from the Spiritual Energy Bureau take him back?"

"A first-sequence mutant creature is still very valuable."

"Although the potion developed by the people in the Research Institute is useless to me, it can greatly improve other psychics. Even the first sequence can gain considerable benefits."

"And that potion seems to be made from the first sequence materials."

Gene enhancement drugs are of great use to normal psychics, but they are of little significance to Li Chuan who has integrated into the mountains.

However, although it is of no use to him, it is a first-sequence mutant creature after all. Now that it has fallen in front of him, there is no reason to let it go.

Let the people from the Spiritual Energy Bureau drag it over and make it into a genetic enhancement potion.

As he spoke, Li Chuan slowly walked forward, ignoring the energy flow around the other person, and pinched his neck, as if he was going to break his neck in the next moment.

"wait wait wait."

"I bear you no ill will."

As if sensing the chill of death, Tiangou came back to his senses from the daze of breaking through the formation and hurriedly spoke to Li Chuan.

"Island country language? Mutated creatures from the island country have come to China?"

"Because of that Kunpeng?"

"What did he just say?"

"Forget it, I don't understand it anyway."

Li Chuan couldn't understand the Japanese language that Tengu spoke subconsciously. He could just tell that it was Japanese language, but he didn't know the specific meaning.

Although I don’t understand why this mutant creature from the island country would fly to China, but now that it’s here, it’s better not to leave and just die here.

The production of genetic enhancement drugs only cares about the quality of the materials themselves, and does not care what country the materials come from.

"Wait, the birds of an island country should eat the fish of an island country, right?"

"Then it looks so strange, did it eat fish contaminated by radiation?"

"Can this still be made into a genetic enhancement potion?"

As if he thought of something, Li Chuan's hand paused slightly, and his expression suddenly became a little strange.

It is no secret that the island nation dumped pollutants into the sea. Although it seems that these pollutants have been repaired by the spiritual energy due to the revival of spiritual energy, no one knows the details.

It is definitely unlikely that the previous mutations will be restored.

This mutant bird looks so strange. It might have mutated because it often eats contaminated fish. Its body has been contaminated by those lustful things.

If it is made into a genetic enhancement drug, it may not bring any improvement to the person who takes it, but may even pollute his body.

"Wait. I can speak a little Chinese, too."

Li Chuan's mumbling made Tiangou realize that this was China, and if he spoke the island language, they might not understand.

Fortunately, considering that he would come to China one day in the future, he asked Shuten-doji to teach him some Chinese words, otherwise he would not know what to do now.

It would be such a shame if we died at each other's hands because we couldn't communicate.

"Colonel accent."

Hearing Tengu's words, Li Chuan frowned slightly, but let him go.

Since the other party wanted to communicate, he didn't mind asking the other party's purpose. He didn't think that a mutant creature from an island country would cross the ocean and come to China for no reason.

The Kunpeng's attack on the island country had long been stopped. Although the cost was high, it had nothing to do with this mutant bird. It was still alive anyway.

"Tell me, why are you here?"

Li Chuan said lightly.

"I came to China to find my roots!"

Tengu stood up and spoke slowly but firmly.

"???"

"What did you say?"

When Li Chuan heard the mutant bird speaking Chinese in the tone of a colonel, a look of obvious confusion appeared on his face.

What did he just hear? Return to one's roots?

Are you a mutant creature, or a mutant creature from an island country, coming to China to trace your roots?
"I believe you have recognized my identity."

“Although I was born in the myths and legends of an island country, my origins lie in the Chinese Classic of Mountains and Seas.”

Perhaps it was because he felt the threat of death at close range that he was forced to unleash his potential. After a brief interruption, Tengu's Chinese suddenly became fluent.

"No, I didn't notice it at all."

There was no expression on Li Chuan's face, but he shook his head in his heart.

Are there any mythical creatures in island countries that originated from China's "Classic of Mountains and Seas"?

It seems like there is, but it should be something taught in university. He has never been there so he has no idea. But since the mutant creatures from his island country said so, then it should be like this.

Wait, it was born from the myths and legends of an island country?
What do you mean?
Isn't he a mutant?

Li Chuan, who noticed the key point, frowned slightly, but after thinking of the Jiaolong, the three-legged golden crow, and the Kunpeng that had appeared in China, he felt that this should not be the case.

It is probably a mutated creature that has evolved into the form in myths and legends, but it does not know the situation, so it thinks it was born from myths and legends.

"I don't like the body I have now."

"I believe you are aware that my current form is quite different from my form in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. If you are not familiar with mythology, you may not even think that we have anything in common."

"After I entered the realm of the First Sequence, I felt the call from the land of China. It was the call of my bloodline."

"Under this call, I left the island country and came to China."

"Shuten-doji told me that maybe I won't get what I want, and it's more likely that I will die here after setting foot on Chinese soil."

"Just now, I did feel the threat of death, but fortunately, you are a human who can communicate."

Tiangou was quite relieved when he said this. Before he came here, he thought that as long as he chose to surrender, he would not be in any danger. However, he forgot that he might not even have the time to open his mouth to speak before being killed by the strong men of China.

If the strong man in front of me had not suddenly stopped, giving me time to explain, I would probably be dead now.

He didn't think that he, in his drowsy state with only one tenth of his spiritual energy left, would be a match for the other party.

Although he didn't know who the strong man in front of him was, there was no doubt that he was definitely a first-sequence, and even more powerful than Luoshui Sanxian and Ling.

He raised his head slightly and stared at the other person's not-so-tall figure. He felt the oppression brought by that breath, as if he was facing an insurmountable mountain.

Shuten Douji had told him about many first-sequence-level psychics in China, whether they were the former Four Emperors of China, the current Three Emperors of China, or armor summoners like Lin Kai and Kun Hu, or even Taoist and Buddhist powerhouses like Xuan Zhen, Zhang Daolong, and the monk.

Basically, Shuten Douji had talked to him about all the famous first-level strongmen in China, but the person in front of him was not among them.

Therefore, if Shuten Douji didn't miss someone, it could only mean that the strong man in front of him had no reputation at all in China!
