Primordial Era: I, Yuan Hong, am solely focused on stability; humanity remains clear-headed.

Chapter 51 Floods Rage, Heavenly Divine Water

Yuan Hong rode the Thunder Beast and headed towards Buzhou Mountain.

To his surprise, he encountered more and more large rivers along the way.

In some places, it has even turned into a flood, with vast areas of floodwater sweeping across and drowning countless lives.

The most outrageous thing is that this water is not ordinary water, but poisonous water that can corrode the body of an immortal!

"Ouch!! Sir, this water is poisoned!"

In one place, as the Thunder Beast carried Yuan Hong across a river, it let out a roar and leaped into the air.

It looked down at the flood with lingering fear, but was determined to stay high in the sky and never go down again.

It seems that the closer one gets to Buzhou Mountain, the stronger the toxicity of the water becomes. Even it, with its ferocious beast bloodline, is struggling to withstand it.

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

Yuan Hong frowned as he looked at the wounds on the Thunder Beast's body, which were caused by the corrosion from the flood and were still eroding the beast's body.

Fortunately, after escaping the flood, the Thunder Beast's body quickly healed.

"You should go back to the Myriad Spirits Chart and hurry up and cross the threshold to become a Golden Immortal."

Yuan Hong shook his head and casually waved his hand, storing the Thunder Beast into the Myriad Spirits Diagram.

Then, he looked at the floodwaters below, lost in thought.

"Could this flood be related to the leak of the 'Nine Heavens Divine Water' from back then?"

He knew that in ancient times, right after the end of the great calamity of the witches and demons, a major event had occurred in the primordial world.

At that time, Mount Buzhou, the pillar supporting the heavens, was broken by Gonggong. After it collapsed, the heavens lost this pillar, causing the nine heavens to break and creating a huge hole.

Then, endless divine water from the heavens poured down from it, flooding the primordial world!

That Nine Heavens Divine Water is exceptionally magical; it is a substance from beyond the heavens. A single drop can transform into a vast ocean, possessing boundless power!

Although the sages hurriedly repaired the sky and found a new support for it, a large amount of divine water from the Nine Heavens still spilled into the primordial world.

In the early days, this divine water from the heavens was restrained by the power of the sages, and gathered around Mount Buzhou, preventing it from running rampant.

However, as time went by, the saint's magical power was gradually eroded.

Even a sage isn't a laborer; he can't keep intervening to control the flood!

Therefore, vast amounts of the divine water from the heavens finally overflowed.

This has led to numerous floods appearing in the wilderness, affecting an ever-widening area and threatening more and more living beings!

If this flood were merely ordinary water, it would be fine. The key is that it originated from the divine water of the Nine Heavens, carrying a rich and exotic primordial energy from beyond the heavens.

This also means that this water is naturally extremely toxic to the creatures of the primordial world, and even many immortals and gods cannot withstand it!

Therefore, not only humans, but almost all races in the prehistoric world suffered from the scourge of floods.

It was against this backdrop that the story of Yu the Great controlling the floods came about.

"With the rampant floods, there are many more water monsters and demons now."

Yuan Hong flew alone toward Buzhou Mountain and saw water demons appearing in many places, so he couldn't help but sigh.

These monsters that appear in the floods are actually part of the flood disaster itself; they only know how to harm living beings, especially poisoning the human race.

Although he is not human, he possesses the Humanity Seal and is a potential Lord of Humanity!

These water monsters and demons are causing all sorts of harm to people. Undoubtedly, this will gradually erode the fortune of humanity, which naturally makes Yuan Hong unhappy.

"laugh!"

Suddenly, a water snake at the Xuanxian realm attacked from below, like a sharp arrow, opening its blood-red maw towards Yuan Hong, its eyes filled with ferocity.

"These wild monsters that live alongside floods aren't exactly smart either."

"act recklessly."

Yuan Hong looked indifferently at the water snake attacking from below, and with a thought, he casually summoned his innate spiritual treasure.

Whoosh!

A large, crimson flag fluttered in the wind, and as it waved, endless flames appeared on the horizon, forming patches and clusters, like a sky full of fiery clouds.

Then, to the water snake's horrified gaze, a large swath of flames pressed down, and even before they reached it, the intense heat was already palpable.

This was a magical treasure that the Three Immortals of Sanxiao once gave to Yuan Hong. It was later strengthened through investment and named the Heavenly Fire Banner!

Currently, Yuan Hong has reached the level of a Golden Immortal of the Primordial Spirit, possessing immense magical power that far surpasses that of a Mystic Immortal.

He activated the Heavenly Fire Banner, and in an instant, a raging inferno of heavenly fire swept across everything, its power so immense that it even overshadowed the raging flood below.

"Hiss~~"

The water snakes of the Xuanxian Realm cried out in anguish, unable to escape, and were instantly engulfed by heavenly fire. In just a few breaths, they were burned alive!

However, Yuan Hong didn't even glance at it, but instead continued to urge a large amount of heavenly fire down to scorch the ground.

He specifically summoned the Heavenly Fire Banner and launched a large-scale offensive, not for this mere water snake.

A vast expanse of fire enveloped the floodwaters stretching for tens of thousands of miles, instantly drying up the immense flood and leaving behind a white mist between heaven and earth!

"roar!"

"hiss!"

In the flood, ferocious monsters howled and roared, struggling back and forth in the sea of ​​fire.

Yes, Yuan Hong discovered that this body of water was a den of demons, inhabited by many lesser demons.

Since that water snake was oblivious to its own mortality and attacked me, I might as well take action and wipe out the demonic threat in this area.

None of the monsters here were at the Golden Immortal realm, so of course they couldn't withstand Yuan Hong's attack.

Soon, they all perished here, and the demonic aura was swept away.

woohoo...

After the Heavenly Fire Flag was put away, the sea of ​​fire quickly disappeared.

Yuan Hong looked at the still raging floodwaters in the distance and shook his head helplessly.

These minor demons are merely a tiny, insignificant part of the many floods.

Ultimately, the root cause is the raging flood itself.

Unfortunately, he lacked the ability to control the floods.

Even if you exhaust yourself trying to dry it with heavenly fire, you still won't be able to deal with even one ten-thousandth of the floodwaters on the mainland!

Moreover, the floodwaters are increasing and will gradually connect with many natural waterways, making it impossible for even a powerful being to destroy them.

"This kind of thing probably has to be left to Yu the Great later on."

"No wonder he could accumulate so much merit by controlling the floods. It's a pity I'm not qualified to receive such merit and good fortune."

Yuan Hong shook his head and continued to speed up his journey toward Buzhou Mountain, focusing on his goal.

The closer he got to Buzhou Mountain, the more severe the floods became, and the more toxic they were!

Originally, with his physical strength, he could completely ignore it, but gradually, even he was unwilling to get his hands on the water, feeling somewhat disgusted.

This is actually normal. When Buzhou collapsed, the sky broke at the top of Buzhou Mountain, leaking out a large amount of the Nine Heavens Divine Water.

Therefore, Buzhou Mountain is the source of the floods.

The closer you get to Buzhou Mountain, the greater the power of the flood, and the closer you will get to the purest Nine Heavens Divine Water!
