After returning to Wanzu Village, Chen Yao kept thinking about that hand.

If I’m not mistaken, that hand should belong to the Heavenly Corpse, but why did those barbarians jump down one by one?

Chen Yao thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with the most likely reason.

“They want to resurrect the Heavenly Corpse!”

Chen Yao was in a bad mood.

Even though he has touched upon four paths now, he still doesn’t think he can suppress the Heavenly Corpse steadily.

Especially after he traced back his past and present lives through the flow of time and witnessed the horror of the Heavenly Corpse, he understood even more that he was still far from being as good as the Heavenly Corpse.

The sense of urgency came over me again, but some things can’t be rushed.

If you want to understand the Tao, you need the fire of faith. If you want the fire of faith, you need enough believers. If you want enough believers…

Chen Yao swept his mind over and found that half of the Jin clan had been subdued, and the rest could be dealt with in about two days.

In other areas where sub-columns have been inserted, the Water Clan will benefit the most now, so Chen Yao set his sights on the Water Clan.

“You have to do it yourself…”

Chen Yao sighed. He even thought about promoting one of the believers in the village to the Touching Dao realm so that he could feel more relaxed.

But then he shook his head. Not to mention that the fire of faith was scarce now, even the thunder tribulation of the Dao Touching Realm would not allow him to do so.

Helplessly, Chen Yao disappeared from the spot and continued to work for himself.

……

The water tribe.

The source of Tongtian River is a thousand-meter-high mountain named Tongtian Mountain.

Tongtian Mountain does not lead to the sky. Although thousands of feet high mountains are not everywhere among the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there are quite a few of them.

The reason for this name is just for Tongtian River.

The water of Tongtian River pours down from the mountains.

Those who have never seen the source of the Tongtian River would never believe that the Tongtian River, which is so huge and has countless branches, could originate from a mountain.

There is only a large lake on the top of Tongtian Mountain, and the water of Tongtian River flows down from the gap on one side of this lake.

In the middle of the lake, there was a figure sitting cross-legged in the center of the lake, just floating quietly above the water.

The source of the river that is a hundred feet wide and flows down the mountain is a man. This man is the current patriarch of the Water Clan.

The chief of the Water Clan is named Shui Jing, and he has been on this lake for fifty years.

In other words, not only him, but every patriarch of the Water Clan has to go through such a process.

For this reason, no matter which clan leader it is, his mentality is far superior to that of ordinary clan members.

It is true that if one looks up at the sky and looks down at the water every day, after a few decades, even the most impetuous character will be smoothed out.

But during this period of time, Shui Jing’s heart was in turmoil.

hum~
A circle of ripples spread out from the calm lake surface under Shui Jing, and Shui Jing opened its eyes.

“Hey~”

A sigh was heard, echoing on the lake.

“The cultivation of the state of mind is still not enough after all.”

Shui Jing sighed.

What made him feel upset were some things he learned a few days ago.

Shui Jing has a magical power named after him, called Shui Jing Shu.

Water Mirror Technique is not an offensive technique, but it is the technique that Water Mirror is best at.

After all, over the past few decades, he has used this technique to observe the situation of the Water Clan in order to ease his mood when he was mentally unstable.

The first few years were the time when he used the Water Mirror Technique most frequently. Later, as he stayed on the top of the mountain for a long time, he used the Water Mirror Technique less and less.

In recent years, he might not use the Water Mirror Technique once a year.

This has to do with the state of mind, and also with the water clan’s attitude of not competing with the world.

If Shui Jing wanted, Tongtian River could actually cover all areas of the Five Elements alien races, but the Water Clan did not do so. They only designated an area of ​​twenty to thirty million feet in radius as the area protected by the Water Clan.

The size of this area is not even as large as that of the Earth Clan and the Wood Clan, two alien clans of the Five Elements whose combat power is not very high.

However, precisely because of Shui Jing’s operation, even the Fire Clan, which used to be at odds with the Water Clan, has only had minor frictions in recent decades, and the situation has not escalated to the point where the clan leader has to step in.

In this way, the Water Clan remained peaceful for many years.

But what Shui Jing didn’t expect was that the peace he had always wanted for so many years would be broken by an outsider.

The Water Clan is adjacent to the Gold Clan and the Fire Clan.

Some time ago, a subordinate tribe of the Water Clan said that there seemed to be some movement from the Fire Clan.

But because the two are far apart, the news is not very true.

In order to prevent the Fire Clan from thinking that they were causing trouble, Shui Jing did not let anyone from the Water Clan go over to check.

But who knew that not long after, problems arose on the side of the Jin clan as well.

The boundary between the Gold Clan and the Water Clan is not as clear as that between Water and Fire.

So when the people of the Water Clan saw an outsider entering the Gold Clan’s affiliated tribe, they immediately passed the news back.

The Water Clan itself did not react to this commotion, but later the affiliated tribes of the Water Clan discovered that they were being spied on!

This meant that the Water Clan could no longer sit idly by.

They don’t want to fight, but that doesn’t mean they won’t fight.

Although the Water Clan did not catch the peeper afterwards, Shui Jing was alarmed by the incident.

Afterwards, Shui Jing used the water mirror technique to see what happened on the side of the Jin clan.

Shui Jing’s heart was shaken when he saw that the affiliated tribes of the Jin clan had already prostrated themselves at the feet of some humans and monsters.

The Gold Clan considers itself the strongest among the Five Elements alien races, so why would they bow down to humans and monsters?

With doubts, Shui Jing looked at the other affiliated tribes of the Jin clan.

After seeing more and more members of the Jin clan being conquered, Shui Jing knew that things were not going well.

He originally thought that the three big swords of the Jin clan would take action, but they didn’t.

With some doubts, Shui Jing spied on the Jin clan.

His water mirror technique could only spy on the territory beyond the three great swords of the Jin clan.

Despite this, Shui Jing also discovered that the three elders of the Jin clan were following a human.

This scene shocked Shui Jing beyond words.

The Jin clan was also conquered?
This fantastic thing actually happened, which shocked Shui Jing even more than the annihilation of the Jin clan.

After that, Shui Jing directly set up the Tongtian Formation.

It is called a formation, but in fact it is just a method used by the Water Clan. With the help of the entire Tongtian River, the Water Clan is covered with water mist.

In a water mist environment, the Water Clan will have bonuses. At the same time, whether it is the Water Mirror or other affiliated clans of the Water Clan, they basically have the ability to launch some perception-type spells through the water mist. As long as they enter the range of Tongtian River, the Water Clan can react quickly.

In this way, anyone who comes to the Water Clan will have to be more passive.

This method, which was once something the Water Clan was proud of, made Shui Jing feel uneasy this time.

Tongtian River’s method is more or less within the scope of understanding, but it is incomprehensible that the Jin clan was conquered by humans.

Just as Shui Jing was sighing, he suddenly sensed someone had entered the Tongtian River.

A ten-foot-long water mirror appeared, ripples appeared, and a picture appeared on the water mirror. It was a handsome human figure, blindfolded, with a smile on his lips. Looking at this person, the water mirror frowned.

He then used the water mirror technique to observe the surrounding situation, but did not find any other existence.

“Did you really come here alone?”

Just when Shui Jing was confused, he didn’t know which subordinate tribe had arrived, so he immediately shouted to the person, “This is the Shui Clan’s territory, no one is allowed in.”

The man glanced at the person who was shouting, and in a flash, he appeared among the group of people.

There was no sign of that person doing anything, and the people who were shouting just now stopped moving.

But judging from the terrified expressions on their faces, it seemed that they were not motionless, but unable to move.

“I ask, you answer, where is the direction of the Water Clan?”

The man spoke, and Shui Jing frowned.

If he really came for the Water Clan, what on earth does he want to do?
When Shui Jing was guessing, the people of the Water Clan seemed to have been released from restrictions and became more defensive, but no one dared to attack that man.

“Which direction are the Water Clan in?”

The man asked again.

As a result, the people of the subordinate tribe retreated nervously, but no one answered.

Shui Jing saw the man reach out and capture a person in his hand, grabbing his head.

The next moment, Shui Jing was stunned.

Because the image on the water mirror technique became blurry.

Just when Shui Jing felt something was wrong, the water realm technique returned to normal.

At this time, the person from the subordinate tribe in the man’s hand had been thrown down. He ignored the fallen tribe member and kept staring at the intruder.

Then, he saw the man looking in a certain direction.

That direction is exactly where the Water Clan is located, and it is also where he is on Tongtian Mountain.

When he was shocked, the water mirror technique became blurry again.

When it recovered again, the figure had disappeared.

Shui Jing used the water mirror technique to search in various places along the Tongtian River, but could not find the figure.

“Escape technique?”

“No, it is impossible for the escape technique to affect my water mirror technique. He obviously didn’t notice me, so it’s impossible for him to use any targeted techniques against me.”

“Then what is the reason that my water mirror technique failed twice…”

Suddenly, Shui Jing thought of something.

The Golden Clan!
Whenever he approached the area where the three giant swords of the Golden Clan were located, his Water Mirror Technique would produce an effect similar to blurring the view.

He knew the reason; it was the golden aura that had been nurtured by the Jin clan for generations.

But that aura is almost close to the Tao, so it can destroy the water mirror technique’s prying eyes, but why is this person like this?

Shui Jing suddenly thought of a terrible situation.

“Impossible. There are only a few people who can touch the Dao in the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It is impossible for them to appear here…”

As Shui Jing was speaking, he suddenly realized that the water mirror technique in front of him had become blurry again.

“Huh? Found it?”

……

Just as Shui Jing was concentrating on the Shui Jing Technique, Chen Yao’s figure had already walked out of the void not far from Tongtian Mountain.

Looking around, Chen Yao’s gaze fell on the Tongtian Mountain tens of thousands of feet away, and then he nodded with satisfaction.

“Yes, the information obtained by using the flow of time to trace back other people’s memories is indeed very accurate. It is very convenient when combined with walking in the Styx.”

As he spoke, Chen Yao took a step forward and used the “A World Away” technique, and when he reappeared he was already above Tongtian Mountain.

As soon as he appeared, he saw the alien below who suddenly looked up at him.

Chen Yao landed and came to the sluggish Shui Jing in the middle of the lake.

“Are you from the Water Clan?”

Shui Jing still hasn’t figured out why the other party is here.

It was so far away just now. Even if it was an escape technique, it couldn’t be here so quickly, right?
“Did not say?”

Seeing that Shui Jing didn’t say anything, when he was about to use the Flow of Time to trace back Shui Jing’s memory, Shui Jing sank into the water.

Chen Yao smiled.

You want to run away when he’s so close? You really don’t take him seriously.

The force of space directly blocked the entire mountain top, but what surprised Chen Yao was that he did not feel the other party breaking in by force.

What’s even more amazing is that the lake beneath him actually blocked his spiritual thoughts.

No, it was a hundred feet from the center of the lake, which his divine sense could not detect.

“What is this…”

Just when Chen Yao was about to burn the entire lake, a huge splash of water exploded from under his feet and a figure leaped out.

Chen Yao did not take any action, and the water that was rushing towards him vaporized in the air.

Looking at the figure in the air with aqua-blue runes flashing on his forehead, Chen Yao was surprised to feel that the other party had a strength that surpassed five mutations.

This is, the rune entering the body?

But this alone was not enough to attract Chen Yao’s attention.

What surprised Chen Yao was that he actually saw an aura of Taoism on the other party that was even stronger than the golden Taoism in the three swords of the Jin clan.

“Isn’t it said that the Gold Clan is the most powerful of the Five Elements Alien Clan?”

Chen Yao looked at Shui Jing, whose eyes had turned blue, and felt that the Jin clan was not so much awesome as just bragging.

At this time, Shui Jing was also looking at Chen Yao below.

After integrating the ancestor’s runes, his strength has reached an unprecedented level.

He knew it was only temporary, but he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

“Is this power? Haha.”

Shui Jing felt that he was now capable of breaking the three swords of the Jin clan.

After feeling it for a while, he looked at Chen Yao who was flying up to the same level as him.

With his hands behind his back, Shui Jing’s blue eyes looked at Chen Yao indifferently.

“I am the chief of the Water Clan. Were you just…looking for me?”

“Come on, I’m right here, what about you?”

Chen Yao originally wanted to ask Shui Jing what was going on with the fusion of the water rune. After all, the rune page he fused to the earth had only undergone six mutations, but there was no breath of Taoism at all.

But now, looking at Shui Jing’s look of being the best, Chen Yao thought it would be better to let him kneel down and talk first.

Chen Yao stretched out his hand and waved it, and a flame enveloped the water mirror.

The water vapor rose up and then disappeared quickly, and before it could even last ten breaths, Shui Jing’s cry for mercy was heard from it.

“Stop it, sir. I have something to say!”
