Chapter 243: Chapter 217: Successful Water Control

Dayu rose to his feet and bowed in respect, gratefully saying, "My thanks to the Dragon King."

Ao Guang stood up and replied, "The Human Lord is too courteous. My Dragon Clan serves as the totem for the Human Clan; we share in glory and in loss.

Please wait just a moment."

Ao Guang turned and left the hall, transforming into a dragon shadow that soared into the sky.

Bai Jin turned to Dayu and asked, "Regarding the suppression of the Earth Core, does the Human Lord have any good ideas?"

Dayu said solemnly, "I wish to emulate the Earth Emperor of old and craft a Destiny Divine Artifact for the Human Clan, to suppress the Earth Core, but I fear the power may not suffice."

Bai Jin stood and said, "We’ll wait for Ao Guang’s news. If the Dragon Clan cannot assist, we will seek other methods. For now, our duty is to investigate the location of the Earth Core."

Duobao, Wudang Saint, and the other three Dragon Kings also rose to their feet.

Dayu bowed in respect and said, "My thanks to you all."

Everyone nodded, walked outside, and transformed into streams of light that burrowed deep into the ground.

Dayu sat in the hall in deep thought for a moment, then called out loudly, "Jiuxi!"

A young man entered from outside, bowed with clasped hands, and respectfully said, "Greetings, Co-Emperor!"

Dayu instructed, "You shall lead our Human Clan Practitioners to the birthplace of our people, Shouyang Mountain, to obtain Shoushan Copper."

Jiuxi respectfully replied, "Understood!" and turned to walk into the hall.

"Eight Swords!"

An elder carrying a longsword entered from outside, bowed in respect, and said, "Greetings, Co-Emperor!"

"You are to go to the great marshes in the North and call Yinglong to emerge, and then proceed to Fire Cloud Cave to obtain Fire of Human Dao."

The Elder Eight Swords respectfully said, "Eight Swords acknowledges the decree!" He turned and walked outside, his figure vanishing in a few flickers.

...

Having learned that the Earth Core is where the Dragon Veins converge, the search becomes less difficult.

Bai Jin utilized the Five Elements Escape Technique to traverse beneath the surface, following the Dragon Veins, penetrating rock and breaking through metal.

Before long, Bai Jin arrived at where the Dragon Veins converged, in a twisted space deep within the earth, surrounded by numerous Dragon Veins. Infinite Sea Water gushed from within the space, forming a deep water column.

Merely approaching within ten thousand meters of the Earth Core, Bai Jin could sense the terrifying suction emanating from it, as if the land all around were repelling him, propelling him towards the Earth Core.

Should any Immortal Gods of lesser strength come near, they would likely be devoured by the Earth Core instantly, crushed to dust by the terrible force within.

Bai Jin left a mark at this place, and turning around, he left. According to legends of previous lives, there should be nine Earth Cores, but one cannot completely trust the myths of bygone ages, so he continued to search diligently.

After half a month of ceaseless searching, Bai Jin, Duobao, Wudang Saint, and the three Dragon Kings collectively discovered nine Earth Cores swallowing torrents of water.

East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang also returned, mysteriously claiming to have brought a divine object capable of suppressing the Dragon Veins. He conspired with Dayu for a long time, keeping the matter secret from others, even from Bai Jin.

Dayu gathered the Clan Leaders of various tribes to construct an altar to summon the initial fire of Human Dao, refining Shoushan Copper. Clan Leaders of all Human Clan tribes achieved solidarity through blood, with the copper forming Nine Tripods, in which blood and Destiny were infused.

Dayu stood atop the altar and loudly proclaimed, "I, Dayu, in the name of Co-Emperor of the Human Clan and with the collective power of all tribes, invoke the Human Clan’s Destiny to forge the Human Clan’s Destiny Divine Artifact, the Nine States Divine Tripod.

The first tripod, Ji State Cauldron!"

Hum~ A three-legged cauldron glistening with golden light rose from the flames. Its body was engraved with mountains, rivers, and divine beasts.

A mighty wind swept through the sky and dark clouds rolled in, enshrouding Heaven and Earth.

Roar~ A golden Divine Dragon flew from the Eastern skies, weaving through the dark clouds. The Divine Dragon danced above the Ji State Cauldron, spraying a stream of golden blood into it.

"Roar~" Above the Ji State Cauldron, a Divine Beast’s phantom emerged – a Yellow Dragon, fully scaled and antlered, clutching a harp in its mouth.

Below, All Immortals and countless humans all looked up at the massive phantom of the Yellow Dragon.

Duobao muttered, "This is Prisoner Dragon!"

Bai Jin said with a smile, "Ancestor Dragon’s Nine Sons suppressing Laozi, the Dragon Clan really knows how to play."

"The second tripod, the Yan State Cauldron!" Dayu’s resounding voice echoed.

The golden dragon in the sky once again spat out a mouthful of Essence Blood, and as the blood entered the cauldron, buzz~ above the Yan State Cauldron, the shadow of a Divine Beast appeared, with the head of a dragon and the body of a wolf, its back covered in black scales, it was the Ancestor Dragon’s offspring, Yazi.

"The third tripod, the Qingzhou Cauldron!"

"The fourth tripod, the Xuzhou Ding!"

"The fifth tripod, the Yangzhou Ding!"

"The sixth tripod, the Jingzhou Cauldron!"

"The seventh tripod, the Yu State Cauldron!"

"The eighth tripod, the Liangzhou Ding!"

"The ninth tripod, the Yong State Cauldron!"

As Dayu bellowed, one bronze tripod after another appeared, and atop each bronze tripod emerged the shadow of a Divine Beast, Chifeng, Pulao, Suanni, Baxia, Bi’an, Pixiu, and Chiwen.

All nine offspring of the Ancestor Dragon were present, bringing the majestic dragon’s might back to the Primordial World.

"Aooo~" The Ancestor Dragon’s Nine Sons roared in unison, their voices shaking the earth, instantly dispersing the dark clouds in the sky, and the golden dragon quickly descended, transforming into Ao Guang, who wore a Dragon Robe, upon touching the ground.

The earth trembled thunderously, and towering waves surged in the floodwaters, with the Nine Tripods breaking through the sky and departing.

The Hebei Cauldron arrived above a tumultuous flood, and suddenly plummeted down, boom~ creating a colossal wave within the floodwater.

From deep beneath the earth, huge black and cyan water columns continuously gushed forth, and a Divine Artifact shining with Divine Light slowly descended, precisely pressing on top of the water column, forcing it to reduce and recede back into the core of the earth.

"Aooo~"

"Aooh~"

...

A series of deep, angry dragon roars sounded all around.

Above the Hebei Cauldron, the shadow of the Prisoner Dragon appeared, its imposing stare surveying its surroundings. The deep, angry dragon roars all ceased, the water of the Heavenly River completely suppressed into the Earth Core, and the turbulent waves on the ground gradually subsided.

The other eight cauldrons were also stationed at the Earth Core, suppressing the surging Heavenly River water back, and the floodwaters became calm.

Below the altar, Bai Jin said wordlessly, "The Nine Tripods can auto-locate the Earth Core, so what was the point of our painstaking efforts to find it?!"

Wudang Saint chuckled and said, "Consider it an expansion of our horizons."

A streak of sword light crossed the sky, transforming into a middle-aged man who excitedly shouted, "It’s gone down! The water level has dropped!"

A cheer erupted from the Human Clan, and Dayu on the altar stumbled, his smile weary and exhausted. He was too tired; these years had been too taxing, but at last, it was over.

The sky surged with a mysterious yellow hue, revealing a Merit Gold Cloud. The Merit Gold Cloud split into thousands, bestowing merit upon Dayu, Duobao, Bai Jin, the Dragon Clan, the Jie Sect Disciples returning to the East Sea, and even the soldiers participating in the water control—all received merit.

Dayu’s tools, the Measuring Water Divine Treasure Iron and the Mountain Opening Divine Axe, also received merit, transforming into Merit Divine Artifacts.

Below the altar, Bai Jin gave a bow and said, "Senior brother, we’ll leave the aftermath to you. We take our leave!"

"Thank you, Junior Sister and junior brother!"

Wudang Saint smiled and nodded her head in acknowledgment.

Bai Jin and Wudang rode the auspicious cloud towards the East Sea.

Dayu bowed and called out, "Farewell, Holy Envoy! Farewell, Fairy!"

The rest of the Human Clan also bowed respectfully, chanting, "Farewell, Holy Envoy! Farewell, Fairy!"

Their grand voices echoed between Heaven and Earth.

...

Bai Jin and Wudang Saint flew through the sky, overlooking the mountains and rivers of the Primordial World, seeing countless golden dragons rushing across the earth towards the Four Seas.

Wudang Saint leisurely said, "The Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns have taken their places; the destiny of the Human Clan is stabilized."

Bai Jin smiled and nodded, "Indeed! I look forward to the time when the Human Clan spreads throughout the Primordial World."
