Nangong Yu stood by the Ruoshui River, his face etched with worry. He had tried every method but couldn't cross the Ruoshui River to reach the ancestral land of the Fallen God tribe. He had searched the entire wilderness, and if Xiao Man was indeed in the wilderness, the only possibility was the ancestral land.
"Young Master Nangong, it's not even certain if anyone survives in the ancestral land of the Fallen God tribe. Why must you go there?"
"I am looking for someone very important to me. She might be trapped in the ancestral land."
The man listened and said earnestly, "This person is a young lady, isn't she?"
"Yes."
"It seems to be Young Master Nangong's beloved."
Nangong Yu nodded without hesitation, "Yes."
The man sat by the river, "If the person is trapped within the ancestral land, then, Young Master Nangong, I advise you to give up. No one can cross the Ruoshui River."
"Is there no way to overcome the Ruoshui River?"
The man heard this and immediately laughed, "Young Master Nangong, the Ruoshui River is the only river that runs through the wilderness. In the past, this river was rich in aquatic life and full of spiritual energy, nourishing everyone in the wilderness. However, three thousand years ago, overnight, it lost all its spiritual energy. The creatures in the river disappeared, and we lost contact with the ancestral land. Three thousand years have passed, and we don't even know how they are doing."
"During this time, haven't you tried to contact the people in the ancestral land?"
"We tried, but the Ruoshui River that once nourished us became a place where no birds could fly and nothing could float. Our carrier pigeons couldn't get across, and our fishing boats wouldn't float. How could we contact them?"
"There must be a way." Nangong Yu stared at the calm, waveless water surface, his brow furrowed. Suddenly, the water surface began to vibrate, and ripples spread out, faintly containing spiritual energy.
"Quick, get back!" Nangong Yu grabbed the man sitting by the river and quickly retreated, avoiding being overturned by the surging spiritual energy.
"What's happening?" The man was somewhat shaken, "What's happening to the Ruoshui River?"
Nangong Yu stepped forward. His senses were not wrong; these rippling waves indeed contained spiritual energy. But there was no spiritual energy in the wilderness, only battle energy. Where did this spiritual energy come from?
"Young Master Nangong, what's going on?"
"The Ruoshui River seems to have changed." Nangong Yu put his hand into the water. He actually felt a strong life force from it. Was the Ruoshui River about to come back to life?
"The Ruoshui River has changed."
"Changed?" The man scratched his head in confusion, "It's already like this, what else can it change into?"
Nangong Yu looked around and saw a discarded wooden board not far away. He immediately got up, picked up the board, and threw it into the Ruoshui River. The board, which should have sunk, instead bobbed on the water's surface with the ripples, not sinking to the bottom as usual!
"Strange, why didn't this piece of wood sink?" The man's eyes were almost bulging with shock.
"In that case, I can cross the Ruoshui River." Nangong Yu was overjoyed. "Quickly find a boat, I want to take this opportunity to cross the Ruoshui River."
"You mustn't, you mustn't!" The man waved his hands repeatedly, "The Ruoshui River is currently unstable, and the waves are not small. A moment's carelessness can capsize the boat. If you fall into the Ruoshui River, it's a dead end!"
"I can't afford to hesitate. I must cross while the river water hasn't fully recovered. If I wait until it calms down, who knows if it will still float." Nangong Yu quickly found a small boat, pushed it into the river, and the boat did not sink. Nangong Yu was delighted and immediately jumped onto the boat, using his battle energy to propel it forward rapidly.
"Young Master Nangong, take me with you..." The man stood on the bank, waving desperately. But Nangong Yu's boat had already sailed far away, and in a blink of an eye, only a tiny black dot remained.
"Reckless, too reckless!" The man stomped his foot and hurried to find someone for help. The Ruoshui River, which had been calm for thousands of years, was stirring again, and this was no small matter. He had to report back quickly.
Nangong Yu's boat was moving fast, but he didn't know where the destination was. He could only choose to sail in a straight line. However, the waves on the water were not small, and his course gradually deviated from the original direction.
"Not right!" Nangong Yu stopped the boat. The waves were getting smaller and smaller. If he couldn't reach the shore soon, he might sink into the river with the boat.
Nangong Yu scanned the surroundings and found that these ripples were emanating from a certain direction. After a moment of hesitation, he headed towards the direction from which the ripples were originating. Whatever the cause of this change, the source of the change must hold life!
On the other side, Xiao Man's face was getting paler, but the life aura of the Fusang Divine Tree was getting stronger. Little Stone stepped forward, spread his arms, closed his eyes, and felt the dense life aura. The Fusang Divine Tree had truly come back to life. Su Dan Novel Network
Xiao Man retracted her hand and staggered. Jun Ru reached out to help her. A branch of the Fusang Divine Tree extended and wrapped around Xiao Man's waist. A dense life aura enveloped Xiao Man. Jun Ru quickly let go of her hand.
"It actually came back to life." Tao Tie said with great interest, "Tsk tsk, this matter cannot be spread, otherwise everyone will want to eat her!"
Jun Ru naturally understood what Tao Tie meant. Xiao Man had a special physique, and her blood could restore vitality to withered trees. It was incredible. Not to mention outsiders, even people within this place would covet her!
Jun Ru glanced back at Little Stone, who was immersed in the dense life aura of the Fusang Divine Tree. He quickly formed a hand seal. A moment later, Little Stone opened his eyes. A hint of confusion flashed in his innocent eyes, and then he returned to normal.
Tao Tie raised an eyebrow. He almost forgot about the specialty of the Merfolk tribe. This saved a lot of trouble.
After Xiao Man rested, the Ruoshui River gradually returned to calm, and the Fusang Divine Tree regained its vibrant life.
"Thank you, Divine Lord." The divine tree spoke. Jun Ru and Tao Tie exchanged glances. As expected, it was a divine tree that had gained sentience!
Xiao Man stroked the trunk of the divine tree, "The Ruoshui River is polluted, and its restoration will not be completed in a short time. Don't push yourself. I don't want you to exhaust yourself and lose your life after I've just managed to save you."
"Divine Lord, please rest assured. My roots are spread throughout the Ruoshui River. When I fully recover, the Ruoshui River will gradually return to normal due to the purification energy emanating from my roots." The leaves of the Fusang Divine Tree fell onto the water surface, and its branches moved. "Someone is crossing the river."
"Someone can still cross the Ruoshui River?" Xiao Man was somewhat surprised, "Isn't the Ruoshui River a place where no birds can fly and nothing can float?"
"All of this is thanks to the Divine Lord. When you were treating me, your power spread throughout the entire Ruoshui River, allowing it to temporarily return to normal, which is why that person could cross the Ruoshui River. Should we sink them?"
"Wait, let's see who it is."
