Ye Chen’s serious expression shocked Zhurong.
“Didn’t you want to test the explosive power of this plant? It’s fine. Although your Immortal Phoenix’s body is relatively weak and can’t withstand its attack, there should be another way since I’m here. Don’t be nervous… Wait, what are you thinking about?” It thought that Ye Chen was still concerned about the explosive power of the Dragon Claw Grass, so it persuaded him. As it spoke, it realized that Ye Chen didn’t seem to be listening and couldn’t help but ask.
Ye Chen held his forehead and thought for a moment. “Did you just mention that you don’t know much about the Sky Domain?” He asked.
The few Sky Domains were where wind-type Spiritual Energy was produced. Zhurong shouldn’t be unaware of such a situation. Furthermore, there were very few Sky Domains. There were only four that were recorded. There were two in the East Continent and two in the West Continent. The earliest one that produced the Dragon Claw Grass was also in the Sky Domain in the mountains of the East Continent and was relatively close to the area where Zhurong was active. There was no reason for it not to know about the Sky Domain.
“Of course I don’t know much of it. That thing appeared too late.” Zhurong was very calm about this. “The first Sky Domain you mentioned appeared under my territory in the Sun Celestial Heavens. It should be in the mountains of the East Continent. However, I was busy preparing for Nirvana at that time, so I didn’t have the time to look at it at all. I guessed that it might be a problem with the spatial crack, so I sent my people to investigate it. However, they said that it was purely caused by the change in the environment of the Wind Spiritual Energy, so I didn’t care… What are you doing again?”
Before it could finish speaking, Ye Chen had already started to continue flipping through the information. “What’s with the matter of the change in the environment of Wind Spiritual Energy? Tell me about it.” As he flipped through the pages, he didn’t forget to ask.
Zhurong wanted to ridicule him, but seeing that Ye Chen had no time to talk to him, it could only continue answering his question.
“The Wind Spiritual Energy from before was different from other types of Spiritual Energy. It didn’t have a fixed carrier. Instead, there was a wind vein underground. It’s similar to the metal Spiritual Energy that appeared in metal mines. Wherever the wind vein passed, there were basically only other materials near the ground.” It explained, “There was only one wind vein in the Primitive Continent, with a total of four branches. At that time, for some reason, the land of one of the wind veins collapsed, so that kind of place you called the Sky Domain appeared.”
“Four branches?” Ye Chen looked up.
This number coincided with the number of Sky Domains. Based on the information he had, Ye Chen could guess the origin of the Sky Domains.
Firstly, the wind vein had always existed in the Wilderness. There were four branches in the ground.
Then, a portion of the Life and Death Wood and Dragon Claw Grass grew on one of the branches. On this land, even if the Dragon Claw Grass devoured the surrounding things and land, the Life and Death Wood would not fall into the Earth Fire and die because there was no Earth Fire in the wind vein. In the end, the Dragon Claw Grass would devour the areas around the wind vein, causing the first Sky Domain to appear. It was actually the first branch of the wind vein to be exposed on the ground.
After the first branch was exposed, the other branches collapsed one after another. The wind vein was exposed to everyone and it looked like four Sky Domains.
Ye Chen told Zhurong about his guess and it nodded at him.
“Your guess should be fine,” it said. “However, I didn’t expect that the humans still haven’t figured out about the wind vein. Should I say that I’m lucky?”
“What’s wrong with the wind vein?” Ye Chen immediately asked.
Zhurong flapped its wings at him. “This is something I’ll tell you in the future. You don’t have to be anxious.” It calmed Ye Chen down. “Speaking of this wind vein, it should have appeared before the first mutated beast war in the wilderness. At that time, the land hadn’t appeared yet…”
“Wait.” Ye Chen interrupted. “So early? Isn’t it earlier than when the Titan God appeared?”
Zhurong shook its head.
“It’s true that the Titan God is the youngest of the Five Ancient Gods in the Primitive World. He’s also the only Earth God. However, no one knows the exact time he appeared. The only ones who know about it are probably the other four gods among the Five Ancient Gods, right?” It recalled for a while and continued to say to Ye Chen, “I’m guessing that the people of the current world don’t know much about the other four gods, right? They didn’t leave their names, but according to our method of division, they are the Heavenly God of the Sun Celestial Heavens, the Twin Water Gods of the Deep Sea Palace, and the Wind God, the mediator outside these two areas. To be honest, we’ve always guessed that the wind vein in the Primitive World is related to this Wind God.”
This was indeed something Ye Chen had never heard of.
“This is really new to me. Can you tell me something related to this Wind God?”
He simply took advantage of the time and threw the fragments of the Dragon Claw Grass into his inventory. As he entered the fire array to search for anything that he could not see, he listened to Zhurong continue.
Zhurong followed behind Ye Chen with a sullen expression.
“How would we know that much?” It mocked. “The history of the Wilderness has long been destroyed. I was born decades before the first mutated beast war in the Wilderness. At that time, the Wind God had already passed away and the Titan God had yet to obtain the deity position, so we only know some rumors…”
“It’s fine even if it’s a rumor.” Ye Chen seemed to be very interested in this. “Anyway, we’ve always been uncovering the truth from rumors. Haven’t you gotten used to it?”
Upon hearing this, Zhurong could only nod and told Ye Chen.
“The first mutated beast war in the Wilderness happened because the Deep Sea Giant Kun Peng attacked the Immortal Phoenix of the Sun Celestial Heavens. However, there were also rumors that this wasn’t a mutated beast war but a war started by the gods that should have been retired from the world. The two Water Gods took revenge on the Heavenly God because of the death of the mediator.” It said, “At that time, there were many rumors in the Sun Celestial Heavens that our Heavenly God killed the Wind God.”
Ye Chen looked back at it in shock.
At this moment, he saw a system notification appear with a clear notification sound. However, there were no notifications on it. There was only one word.
[Correct.]
The Titan God’s consciousness was clearly still watching.
“Can you say a few more words?” Ye Chen asked silently in his heart.
The Titan God quickly replied.
[I don’t have enough information. Listen to what it said. I’ve already adjusted the system and will replenish it in time.]
Ye Chen sighed to himself. Even God did not know.
However, the Divine Realm of the Titan God only appeared later. During the mutated beast war, it indeed didn’t form a force. It was indeed normal for Zhurong from the Sun Celestial Heavens to provide information.
“Continue,” he said to Zhurong. “What else did these gods do?”
