Chapter 1124 Fall
The movement of Wanxian Mountain soon alarmed Li Zhirui and Jiang Fengwu. The two looked at each other tacitly and then went to deal with their own expertise.
Jiang Fengwu stayed in the family to preside over the mountain protection formation and stabilize Wanxian Mountain. It must not be shaken by the earthquake, otherwise the family's accumulation of thousands of years would probably go to waste.
Li Zhirui took Amu and ran outside, trying to reduce the power of the earthquake and reduce the losses and casualties in various parts of Shanhaizhou.
Some other clansmen took action one after another, hoping to contribute their own strength.
At the same time, Li Yunchang immediately summoned the mountain gods and water gods of the family and asked them if they knew the reason.
But they were just some small gods, how could they know this?
Moreover, their divine domain was also affected. For their own safety, they did not dare to stay outside for too long. They immediately returned to the divine domain and used their own strength to stabilize the mountains and rivers.
...
"Be careful!"
Li Zhirui saw a group of mortals running wildly on the ground, and the ground under their feet suddenly cracked into a huge crack, as if a beast opened its bloody mouth and swallowed them all.
He reminded them in time, but a group of mortals had no way to dodge, and could only wail and fall into the dark underground.
Fortunately, a bunch of green leaves suddenly appeared at this time, dragging them and quickly sending them to the ground.
Because the next moment, the crack began to tremble violently again, and countless soil and rocks fell one after another, and it seemed to have a tendency to close again.
This sudden cracking and closing movement made Li Zhirui frown, thinking in his heart: 'This time it's probably not a simple natural disaster! '
In the Yuanling world, it is said that the earthquake was caused by the earth dragon turning over, but the so-called earth dragon is generally not a real creature, let alone a 'dragon', but a vein deep underground.
But sometimes there are some unexpected situations!
For example, the earth dragon gave birth to spiritual intelligence.
However, this situation is very, very rare, and there are only a few recorded cases in the history of the Yuanling Realm.
Could it be that they encountered such a rare situation?
"Thank you, immortal! Thank you, immortal!"
The mortals who were rescued kowtowed repeatedly to express their gratitude.
Li Zhirui suppressed many thoughts in his mind and said softly: "Run for your lives, try to run to the plains, where there are monks sent by the Li family to protect you."
Although they are likely to encounter various dangers on the way, he can't escort them away.
Regardless of whether they heard it clearly or not, he left quickly. There are still many mortals he wants to save, and he can't waste time here.
In the following time, Li Zhirui traveled around and saved a large number of secular clansmen.
After all, people are close and distant, and in the face of natural disasters, he can only save as many secular clansmen as possible with his limited power, and only a part of them.
Many times, before Li Zhirui arrived, those clansmen died in disasters such as landslides and cracks in the ground caused by earthquakes.
"Alas!"
Li Zhirui sighed as he looked at the existence buried by the rocks below.
He had just used his divine sense to investigate, and there was no living creature below.
In order to deal with this sudden disaster, countless members of the Li family ran around and tried their best to save some mortals.
And fortunately, in order to build the steep cliffs on the coast, the Li family moved away the mountains and hills on the original territory. Most areas are plains, which makes it easier to save lives in the face of earthquakes.
But even so, this sudden and terrifying earthquake still turned the Wanxian Mountain upside down for thousands of miles, and it was a mess.
Among all the members of the tribe, Li Mingyao worked the hardest.
And in order to let more mortals survive, he did not help them avoid sudden disasters like other members of the tribe, but brought everyone with him.
In this way, Li Mingyao naturally saved the most people, but the cost was also the greatest.
"Be careful!"
"Behind you!"
Li Mingyao was trying to save a group of mortals trapped by rocks, but suddenly, countless people shouted in fear behind him.
Without any hesitation, he immediately summoned his life treasure, a mountain seal that merged thirty-six mountains, and activated it behind him. The mountains spread out in an instant to protect him.
But what he didn't expect was that such a strong and solid defense was like a wisp of air in front of this suddenly appearing enemy, passing through the mountains and swallowing him in one gulp!
"How could it be..."
Li Mingyao's face was dazed. He had thought that he would die one day, but he had never thought that it would end like this.
Even if he was unwilling and had all kinds of thoughts in his heart, at this moment, they all turned into nothing.
What Li Mingyao didn't know was that the earth dragon that had swallowed him was the one that had born a shallow spiritual wisdom and came all the way from Baihongzhou!
As the meridian of the earth, how could the mountains and peaks stop it?
If it was any other tribe member, and Li Mingyao wasn't here, maybe he could have blocked this attack, but it was him, the Heavenly Earth Spiritual Root, who was here.
In fact, the original destination of this earth dragon was Changli Mountains, but it sensed that Li Mingyao was here on the way, so it came here on purpose, wanting to devour him and use the Heavenly Earth Spiritual Root in his body to increase its own foundation!
As for the mortals who were saved by Li Mingyao, they collapsed to the ground with ashen faces, feeling that they would be devoured by the earth dragon in the next moment.
But the earth dragon simply looked down on these mortals with turbid breath and bodies full of dirt, and went straight into the underground to digest the benefits brought to him by swallowing Li Mingyao.
It was precisely because of this that the earthquake stopped suddenly without any signs.
It was just that the mountains and rivers were full of wounds and destroyed in a mess, and countless mortals were sad and sad, sitting on the ruins with no life in their eyes, all of which told how much disaster the previous earthquake brought.
"Finally gone!"
After this incident, Li Zhirui finally confirmed that the earthquake was caused by the earth dragon.
But when he returned to Wanxian Mountain, he heard a bad news.
Li Mingyao was attacked by the earth dragon and swallowed into his stomach, and his life card was broken!
Li Zhirui was slightly stunned. Over the years, many young people with heavenly spiritual roots have been born in the family, but he has not taught them.
But like Li Xianxun, Li Mingyao, Li Yunran and others in the early days, he spent a lot of thought and energy to teach and cultivate them, hoping that they would grow up and support the family together!
And they did not live up to Li Zhirui's teachings. Each of them is a rising star of the family. Now their cultivation is at least fusion, and it is very likely to break through the fairyland.
Even if these interests are put aside, the feelings they have had for many years are extraordinary.
But now, I heard the news of Li Mingyao's death.
"Alas!"
Li Zhirui sighed heavily and said, "Establish a tomb for Mingyao."
He wanted revenge but couldn't find the target. The earth dragon didn't know how many miles underground. Even if he was a scattered immortal, he didn't have the ability to find the other party.
"Yes!"
Li Zhirui waved his hand with some boredom and turned back to the cave.
Sitting cross-legged on the cushion, without practicing or enlightenment, just sitting quietly, calming his mind.
The dead are gone, and the living are like this.
Li Zhirui did not indulge in grief for too long, and he returned to his usual state of mind. However, if he had the chance in the future, he would definitely kill a land dragon to avenge Li Mingyao.
…
In the secular world unknown to Li Zhirui and others, the tens of thousands of mortals who were saved by Li Mingyao during his lifetime spontaneously built a temple for him.
Those mortals often came to worship with their families and clansmen to express their gratitude for saving their lives.
And most people would put a god tablet at home, and the slightly richer ones would put a statue of the god. Even if there was no incense, they would still express their gratitude every day.
And Li Mingyao, who was believed by everyone to be dead, was indeed not dead.
To be more precise, he was not completely dead!
The land dragon wanted to devour him completely, which was not only the spiritual roots in Li Mingyao's body, but also his soul.
And how could a newly born spiritual intelligence, which was still chaotic and ignorant, digest Li Mingyao's soul that had already reached the fusion state?
Of course, it was easy to say, but only a few dozen words, but in the whole process, he survived several times and took all means to win the final victory.
It's just that the earth dragon has existed for too long. Even if it had no spiritual intelligence and consciousness before, when it awakens, the traces of past history will appear in its memory.
Such a huge memory was instantly stuffed into Li Mingyao's soul, almost bursting him.
Even though the soul still exists, he has completely lost consciousness and fell into that chaotic state.
In addition, Li Mingyao has lost his body!
If there is no accident, he will eventually fall completely without knowing it.
But at this critical moment of life and death, a ray of hope appeared!
Li Mingyao's kindness and good thoughts saved him at this time.
The tens of thousands of mortals, plus their families, clansmen, and those affected by the surroundings, almost numbered a million.
Even though these mortals were very few in piety, their wishes became the only light for Li Mingyao in the darkness!
He gradually regained his consciousness, and not only remembered his own memories, but also the various traces left on the earth dragon's body by the millions and tens of millions of years of time.
Of course, because the latter were too large in number, Li Mingyao could not yet fully digest them.
"I'm alive!"
Li Mingyao was very excited. He didn't expect that after being swallowed by the earth dragon, he would take over its body.
Now he is no longer a human, but an earth dragon!
He can feel that he has the power to destroy the world in his body, which is many times stronger than when he was still in the fusion state.
It's just that it's difficult to control it because his soul is not that strong. If he is not careful, there is a risk of losing control.
'The reason why the earth dragon is shallow in intelligence is also because there are too many and too complicated memories, and such a powerful force, both of which suppress it together? ’
Li Mingyao put away the chaotic thoughts in his mind and began to wander around his body.
This earth dragon is currently only more than a hundred miles long, which is a very small one among earth dragons. Perhaps it is because of this that it can break through the miracle and give birth to spiritual intelligence.
Then he also saw his body that was not completely digested, only the bones were left. He subconsciously took action to collect it. In a mysterious way, Li Mingyao felt that it would be of great use to him in the future.
Apart from this, there was no discovery.
However, he could feel that there was an extra force in his body.
Li Mingyao didn't know what it was, but he knew that it was this force that pulled him back from the brink of death, so he thought it was harmless and didn't care about it anymore.
…
Time flies by, and a hundred springs and autumns pass in a blink of an eye.
The temples built by mortals for Li Mingyao were known to the Li family a few years later, and the Li family was happy to see the success, so they allotted some time to deal with this place.
Therefore, these temples have not declined due to the passage of time, but have always been quite prosperous.
Gradually, it evolved into a custom among mortals in Shanhai State.
In the past hundred years, the Li family has not given birth to any new loose immortals, but its strength has been greatly improved, and it is firmly seated as the overlord of Shanhai State.
During this period, the Sea Clan also came to invade once, but it was just an ordinary beast tide. There was not even a single water monster in the Loose Immortal Realm. It posed no threat to the Li family and was easily dealt with.
At that time, many people thought that it was caused by the heavy casualties of the Hai Clan in the battle in Wanjiazhou.
But the Li family felt more that the Hai Clan knew that there might be little progress in a short period of time, so they simply sent a batch of cannon fodder to free up more space.
at the same time.
Wanxian Mountain.
The new patriarch Li Xinde was handling various family affairs when suddenly, the ground shook slightly.
At first, he didn't pay attention, but as the shaking feeling became stronger and stronger, it seemed that another round of earthquake was about to break out. He had to summon all the elders and at the same time notify all the clan members to pay attention to safety and prepare to go down the mountain to treat mortals.
But before the Li family could take action, the shaking stopped.
Suddenly, a solemn voice resounded throughout the world.
"Today, I, Li Mingyao, am worshiped by all people, recognized by heaven and earth, inherited the title of heaven, and decreed as the earth god of Shanhaizhou!"
Boom!
There was a thunder on the ground, but it was Heaven that responded to this announcement.
Immediately, a vast, thick, and solemn aura emerged, allowing everyone to feel the immobility of the mountains, the kindness of the earth, the nourishment of all things by clouds and rain, and the vitality of the mountains and forests.
This is an earth god!
A god of the earth.
They are not comparable to the mountain gods and water gods that the Li family invited before. They are all under the jurisdiction of this new earth god, and even automatically become his subordinates!
Not to mention that this great god is still recognized by heaven and earth and canonized by heaven.
only……
Li Mingyao, isn't this a certain ancestor who was attacked and devoured by an earth dragon a hundred years ago?
Li Xinde instantly thought of a possibility, that is, the earth dragon not only devoured the ancestor, but also wanted to inherit his identity!
"This Earth Dragon is so brave! How dare he insult my Li family like this! Does he think that after becoming the Earth God, my Li family won't dare to attack him?!"
It's not surprising that he would think this way. After all, Li Mingyao's life card was shattered. How could Li Xinde still think that he was still alive? (End of chapter)
