Under the scorching sun, the surging Huai River is like a huge silver dragon, crossing mountains, rivers, and plains, moving forward tirelessly. After the rotation of years, it carries the expectations and hopes of many lives, and strives endlessly forward. Enter.
It breaks through obstacles, crosses dangerous shoals, smoothes the cracks in the mountains, nourishes the drought in the land, and brings vitality to both sides of the river.
Saint Zhunti glanced at the turbulent Huai River, looked back at Yu Yuan and said with a smile: "Last time you were in Hezhou, Xiniu, did you see a big river like this?"
Yu Yuan shook his head and said, "Reporting to the saint, last time I was ordered to go to Longevity Mountain, and I only passed a quicksand river along the way... However, although the quicksand river is wide, it is a weak river. There is no life on both sides, so it cannot be compared with this one. Compared with Huai River, one of the four rivers."
Saint Zhunti nodded and said calmly: "Wanshou Mountain is protected by Zhen Yuanzi, so it is full of spiritual energy, but you can't be considered to have been to Xiniu Hezhou when you go there.
Let's go, I'll take you to see what the real Xiniu Hezhou looks like. "
While he was talking, he didn't wait for Yu Yuan to refuse, so he reached out and flicked it.
Yu Yuan only felt that the scenery in front of him changed, and he followed Saint Zhunti to a large mountain in an instant.
With just one glance, he recognized that it was the Wanshou Mountain he had visited last time.
However, Saint Zhunti did not stop, but continued to speed westward with him, reaching the extreme speed, which felt many times faster than his sun-chasing car.
Not long after passing Wanshou Mountain, the scenery below gradually changed.
The original emerald green turned to yellow, and then the yellow disappeared, replaced by a barren desert with no visible edges.
The endless yellow sand covers the earth, like a world of silence and desolation.
The scorching sun shines mercilessly, baking the earth, making the entire desert become scorched and hot.
The sand dunes undulate and twist like waves, while the edges of the desert are outlined by dead grass and scattered sand and gravel.
When the wind blows, the sand makes a low whispering sound, like the sigh of the earth, making people sigh at the passage of time and the vastness of the sea.
There is almost no vegetation in this desolate place.
Scattered weeds stubbornly dug out of the yellow sand, pale and feeble under the erosion of the wind and sand, and seemed destined to fail to take root and sprout. A very small number of desert plants grow towards the sun, and they adapt to this barren land with their tenacious will and vitality.
Over the desert, the heat wave distorts the vision, making people feel like they are in an illusion. The sky was blue without any clouds, and the sun shone brightly on the earth, as if the earth was struggling in flames.
Yu Yuan truly felt a sense of depression and loneliness.
However, this desert is not completely silent.
There are pieces of oases scattered among the sand dunes, like bright gem embellishments, shining dazzlingly in the sun, adding a mysterious color to the desert.
Yu Yuan discovered that in every oasis there was at least one Western temple, where countless creatures worshiped and worshiped, continuously providing the power of faith.
Most of this power of faith is used to sort out the earth's veins, regulate the water veins, call for wind and rain, etc.
There is a wonderful symbiosis between the two.
Countless creatures survive and adapt in extreme ways on this barren land.
"This is the real Xiniu Hezhou. More than 80% of the area is so barren and barren!"
Saint Zhunti looked at Yu Yuan and exclaimed: "Is this scene very different from yours in the East?"
Yu Yuan did not answer, but frowned and asked, "What is the purpose of the saint bringing me here to watch the scenery of the west?"
Saint Zhunti smiled and said: "I brought you here today just to let you know more about the West. You may have heard that the West was not as barren and barren as it is now..."
Along with his words, a vast and majestic spiritual thought was transmitted.
An illusory picture scroll instantly appeared in front of Yu Yuan's eyes, moving back and forth like a revolving lantern.
In that scroll, he could clearly see Saint Zhunti sitting cross-legged under an extremely mysterious ancient Bodhi tree. His posture was upright and solemn, and his slender body was straight and straight, like an iron pillar connecting the sky and the earth. connected.
He was wearing a white robe, and his long black hair was fluttering gently in the breeze. There was a hint of kindness and tolerance between his brows, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, exuding a quiet and peaceful smile.
The sun shines through the branches and leaves of the Bodhi tree, casting little golden lights.
Around Saint Zhunti, countless creatures paid homage to him.
They come in different shapes and come from different races. Whether they are scales, birds, or beasts, they are all quietly listening to the road around him.
In the far distance, there is a majestic and majestic mountain.
After just a brief glance, Yu Yuan had a hint of enlightenment in his heart.
That is Mount Sumeru!
A complete and magnificent sacred mountain!
An unreachable towering giant mountain stands intact on the western land, connecting with the sky. The mountain peaks tower into the sky, covered with white snow, seemingly eternal, like giant beasts entrenched on the earth.
However, endless evil and evil suddenly enveloped the entire western continent.
The sun and moon change colors, the earth trembles and the mountains shake.
Countless creatures were turned into ashes in an instant!
The sudden disaster caused devastating damage to Mount Sumeru, the ancestral line of the West, and the extremely huge mountain disintegrated and collapsed in an instant...
With the collapse of Mount Sumeru, the ancestral veins of the West were severely traumatized, and cracks quickly spread to the entire earth, winding like a giant dragon.
Countless creatures were turned into ashes in an instant.
A vicious and vicious atmosphere enveloped the entire western continent, and the mountains, forests and plains lost their vibrant green, leaving only desolate ruins.
There are ruins piled up with rubble everywhere, and the mountains are tilted and decadent, like giants falling down.
The once vibrant Western Continent now only remains desolate and dead, with no life left to speak of.
Silence and despair permeated the hearts of the remaining living beings. They had lost their support and hope and did not know where to go.
When the disaster occurred, Taoist Zhunti, who was not yet a saint at that time, also saved many lives.
However, despite his best efforts, what he could do was still only a drop in the bucket, insignificant compared to the terrible disaster.
"After that, I tried to move to the East with the remaining Western creatures." Sage Zhunti said calmly: "Unfortunately, the Eastern creatures do not like the resources that should belong to them to be shared.
Therefore, I could only take those remaining creatures back to the West and try to survive in this barren and desolate wasteland. "
Yu Yuan frowned slightly.
Although Saint Zhunti said it in an understatement, he could imagine that the other party must have experienced unimaginable exclusion, targeting, bullying, and even a group attack.
In desperation, Taoist Zhunti, who was not yet a saint at the time, had no choice but to take those Western creatures back to the barren and barren Western continent.
Under today's difficult conditions, only the continuous flow of Cave Heaven Spiritual Veins from the East can allow those Western creatures to survive...
Eh, that’s not right!
Why do you seem to be starting to sympathize?
He was taken into the ditch!
Yu Yuan opened his eyes suddenly and secretly warned himself: Even if he has all kinds of reasons, it has nothing to do with me!
Saint Zhunti saw all the changes in the expression on his face, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he said sincerely: "From then on, I decided to revitalize the West, so that these Western creatures who have suffered misfortune can To regain my own home, if you..."
Before he finished speaking, Yu Yuan clapped his hands vigorously, and at the same time praised repeatedly: "Well said! The saint is really compassionate, which makes people sincerely admire him!"
Saint Zhunti looked at Yu Yuan with stern eyes, "My little friend, would you like to help me and work with me to revitalize the West?"
"Um?"
Yu Yuan said in surprise: "Is the saint trying to recruit me?"
Saint Zhunti frowned slightly and said with a smile: "My little friend, do you think there is anything wrong?"
"Inappropriate! It's so inappropriate!" Yu Yuan nodded repeatedly: "Since you want to recruit me to serve the West, shouldn't you make a big deal first?
You don't even paint a cake, you just tell me a story, and you want me to switch to the West... You are more or less looking down on others. "
Sage Zhunti didn't seem to expect that he would ask for good things so nakedly. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and said with a smile: "What do you want, tell me.
As long as what you want is within the three realms and the five elements, I can help you get it! "
Hearing this, it was Yu Yuan's turn to be a little surprised.
This Zhunti saint is really determined to recruit him!
