From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 219: Flatten the mountains and turn them into soil!

"Boom bang bang."

One after another, powerful warriors, each nearly ten feet tall and clad in iron armor, slowly walked between the mountains and valleys.

Their bodies were already heavy, and the heavy armor they wore made every step they took shake the earth.

The divine soldiers wielded bronze giant hammers or cold iron axes, and when they encountered small hills, they would swing their weapons fiercely and smash them down.

The earth trembled, the ravines roared, and deafening sounds echoed outwards.

Before long, many of the small hills in front of them were smashed flat, with rubble tumbling all over the ground and the surroundings in a mess. But they seemed tireless, continuing to move forward, breaking through mountains as they went, their power overwhelming.

The terrain of Yinshan is extremely complex and unsuitable for human habitation.

The mountains here are steep and rugged, with countless smaller hills, ravines, and swamps between them. The soil is also very fertile, with only a thin layer of soil covering the rocks, making it extremely uneconomical to grow crops.

If this environment is not improved, it is simply not suitable for relocating people here.

"Boom."

Dozens of iron-tailed crocodiles walked at the front, their tails gently sweeping the ground, leveling the scattered stones. Some oversized stones were smashed by their tails, raising countless clouds of dust.

One after another, horned bulls slowly emerged, their massive hooves like iron and their horns adorned with patterns. Wherever they passed, large amounts of rocks turned to dust, and some swamps that had been temporarily buried by the broken rocks solidified.

The rugged ground became smoother under the trampling of these horned bulls.

There are also strange and giant beasts such as the Earth-Splitting Mole and the Mountain-Carrying Turtle, which either carry soil to fill pits or level and turn the soil, combing the ground over and over again.

"Whoosh whoosh."

These Hercules will lead the way, constantly smashing rocks, while the other beasts will further process the ground.

Behind them, countless slaves also rushed over, driven by the divine officials.

They are either shaped like mud with skin embedded in rocks, or their bodies are like iron cones, hopping and jumping in place.

Those earth slaves, whose bodies were as thick as mud, were called "Mud Slaves." When they reached a certain place, they suddenly stopped, took a deep breath, and their bodies swelled up.

However, they expand in a rather unusual way, much like silt constantly seeping out and expanding.

Often, a single [Earth Slave] can expand to a radius of ten zhang, and when a series of Earth Slaves are connected together, they can directly cover a large area of ​​several li in radius.

From a distance, the area is covered by a thick layer of black silt.

The silt was still bubbling slightly, enveloping the scattered pebbles, yet it seemed to have a corrosive effect, slowly digesting them. Before our eyes, the pebbles were getting smaller and smaller.

These "Sludge Slaves" digested the scattered rubble while their bodies continuously corroded the soil and rocks beneath them, gradually smoothing the ground and using the soil and rocks as nutrients to grow even larger.

In the future, they will continuously corrode the ground until they die and become part of the earth.

At that time, this silt will blend into the ground and become the most fertile farmland.

This is the fate of the "Slave".

They have a short lifespan, usually only six months, but they have a strong reproductive capacity. As long as they are given enough energy, they can reproduce indefinitely.

Therefore, they are the best servants to fertilize the soil and transform the earth.

Don't feel sorry for them. The [Slave] have very low intelligence, almost like some fungi. They are earth slaves specially commissioned by the gods from the earth deities, and are very convenient for cultivating and transforming the earth.

"Buzzing."

After the [Slaves] transformed the ground, those iron-spike-like earth slaves hopped and skipped to various parts of this flat land. Once they were in place, their bodies began to spin like swirls, with thin threads flying and connecting with each other as they spun, cutting this large mountainous area into pieces.

These iron-cone-like slaves, called "Tuowen Cone Slaves," are best known for their ability to cooperate with each other to perform various measurements.

This land is being redeveloped and will eventually be allocated to the people, so it's essential to record the detailed data in advance.

Compared to the [Slaves], their fate is clearly better.

At least we won't have to go to our deaths so soon.

……

While the City God mobilized various government departments to carry out the land reclamation in full swing, it wasn't so easy for You Ming and the River God to cleanse the evil spirits.

The evil spirits are not strong, but they come in many forms. Those that are like wild beasts are not so bad; a sweep of divine sense will leave them nowhere to hide.

However, most evil spirits have no physical form, such as shadows, illusions, or even disguised as certain stones or trees. You don't have a better way than to search for them little by little.

"go with!"

The River God, holding the Black Water Token, summoned countless shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and suddenly darted into a stream ahead.

There are many streams here, some of which are interconnected, but most are relatively independent.

Although it is not large in area, it is bottomless, and once an ordinary person falls into it, there is little chance of survival.

This is not only because of the harsh environment, but also because these waterways are home to lurking venomous creatures such as "water nightmares," "poisonous scales," and "dream-eating snakes," which ordinary people are no match for.

However, these were relatively easy to deal with in the eyes of the River God. After all, the monsters in the water could only frighten mortals, and were a piece of cake for gods and immortals.

"Om."

Countless frog soldiers dived in, letting out a long croak, and countless invisible ripples spread underwater. Soon, one after another, tangible and intangible monsters appeared directly.

Then the shrimp soldiers and crab generals quickly swarmed forward and, in the blink of an eye, slaughtered many monsters to pieces.

Even when their bodies are torn apart, many monsters can still transform into wisps of eerie green smoke that continuously permeate the void. Some even attempt to reassemble themselves and transform into new evil spirits.

You Ming did not venture into the depths of the stream, but under the influence of his divine sense, the images of these evil spirits were reflected in his mind.

"Qiang."

An invisible divine sword appeared in You Ming's mind, and in an instant, countless invisible sword energies surged throughout the depths of the stream.

The sword energy was incredibly sharp, cutting through everything. Whether it was the evil spirits constantly fighting the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, or the green smoke that the evil spirits transformed into, they all dissipated like ice and snow under this power.

“Sometimes, for this kind of delicate work, your cultivators’ supernatural powers and spells are more suitable, and you are much faster than me.”

"It's a pity that the evil spirits in these streams are relatively easy to find. There are still a lot of evil spirits hiding somewhere, which is really a headache."

Watching You Ming kill these evil spirits in no time, the River God couldn't help but sigh.

However, he also knew where the biggest challenge of this mission lay.

Upon hearing what the River God said, You Ming's heart skipped a beat.

Yes, I've really gone mad from staying in Yuanling Mountain for so long. Just because others can't find evil spirits doesn't mean I can't.

I have cheat codes.
