The snake never thought that one day it would be plotted by someone without even realizing it.
The chaos seed just now will penetrate continuously once it breaks out, and will not stop until the chaos energy is consumed. Mu You was able to take it out easily just now because he was at the scene and the outbreak had just begun. He nipped the chaos in its bud before it had time to penetrate deeply.
Otherwise, if Mu You hadn't taken action in time and allowed creatures like the Yan Niu to make a big fuss here, the two nearby cities would have been almost destroyed, even if it didn't severely damage human vitality.
"Chaos, this bastard, dares to slander me, don't let me find the opportunity..." Gu She muttered sinisterly and changed the subject.
Originally, it blamed Mu You and others for their precautions, but it turned out that their precautions were foresight, making it very embarrassed now...
Mu You did not go to uncover Gu Snake's scars. This was obviously caused by the God of Chaos and had nothing to do with Gu Snake. If it wasn't for the illusion his daughter had created for him, which made him prepared in advance, he would have to Have a hard time.
Let the daughter's matter go for now. At this time, Yanniu has calmed down. The next step is the negotiation. Their ultimate goal of finding Yanniu is to join forces with the other party to fight against the God-Eating Beast. Now that Mirage Tapir has been controlled by the enemy, Yanniu's existence has changed. Must be essential.
Mu You originally thought that the negotiation with Yan Niu would not be easy. After all, unlike the snake, it had been captured by humans and had the natural driving force of "agreeing to cooperate is equivalent to being released from prison." Each of the natural disaster beasts is an extremely arrogant creature. It is not that simple to let them restrain their instincts and minds and submit to humans.
But to everyone’s surprise, the negotiation actually went very smoothly. As soon as Mu You proposed the intention of contracting with Yan Niu, the other party immediately agreed.
"Cooperation? Haha... As long as you can give me the kind of heavenly protection that I gave to the snake, so that the God of Chaos can't control me, what's the point of cooperating with you?"
Yanniu let out a deep voice, and the anger on his body emerged once again visible to the naked eye: "Chaos, and that kid Mirage Tapir, how dare you treat me as a plaything, and ride on my head one after another... Such a shame , I must take revenge myself!”
…”
Feeling the raging anger on Yan Niu's body, Mu You somewhat understood.
The Yanniu and the Snake are different. They are both extremely arrogant creatures, but the Yanniu is the kind of single-minded arrogance. It does not have as many tricks as the Snake, and its brain is so simple that it almost operates on a single thread. What is running in its brain now There's only one thing: I got bullied by Chaos and Mirage, so I want to come back with revenge!
But in order to take revenge, we must first find a way to solve the divine control of the God of Chaos, and humans can provide it with this ability to counter-control and help it complete the revenge it must do, so humans are friends.
As for cooperating with humans, it actually changed from submitting to the God of Chaos to submitting to humans in another euphemistic way. Yanniu couldn't think of that far, or even if he thought of it, it was because of the more important hatred in front of him. Subconsciously ignoring the past.
This kind of stubborn guy is very suitable for stroking, so next Mu You never mentioned any contract, only "cooperation", and did not talk about the division of labor between the two parties, how much strength humans would have to exert, etc., facing Yan Niu A compliment creates an atmosphere where we weak humans are begging you, Uncle Yanniu, for help.
For a creature with a strong self-esteem like Yanniu, as long as you speak beautifully and give enough face, the appearance is no longer important. Even if Yanniu later realizes that this kind of cooperation will actually suffer some losses, it will not feel guilty. Much resistance.
Ji Snake on the side, as a master of psychology, can naturally see these little language tricks clearly, but he does not point them out at this time, because it is now in line with the interests of mankind and urgently needs a powerful helper like Yan Niu.
At this time, it even deliberately lowered its posture in cooperation with Mu You. While verbally scolding the God of Chaos with Yanniu, it also secretly praised Yanniu and put it on a high position.
After a few people cooperated and flattered each other, Yanniu finally signed a contract with them in a daze.
The bearer of the contract is the herb collector, and it can only be the herb collector.
An extremely arrogant creature like the Yan Niu, a person with a slightly weaker will may be suppressed by the Yan Niu's will and lose himself. Only herb collectors with the same attributes of arrogance and anger can serve as Play the role of controlling Yanniu.
Of course, the content of the contract with the Yanniu is much looser than that with the Snake. It is not a permanent contract. The cooperation between the two parties will only last until the next Flame Disaster Season. At that time, based on the situation of the war with the God-Eating Beast and the cooperation between the two parties, Discuss whether to renew the contract.
In short, the negotiation with Yanniu was completed so smoothly. Apart from a little bit of lip service, the whole process took no effort.
After that, Yan Niu did not enter the city, but found a secluded place to rest outside the city.
It was still very injured when it was blown up by a self-destructor on the side of the God-Eating Beast, and it needs to rest as soon as possible to regain its strength.
That evening, Mu You returned home.
The watchman came back with him.
After running wildly in the wild for two months, I miss many things on the earth very much.
But what concerned him most at this time was Mu You's child.
On the way back, the watcher had already heard about the birth of Mu You's child. Thinking that he had missed the birth ceremony of his little niece, the watcher beat his chest.
As soon as he got home, the watchman went straight to the nursery.
“Don’t be afraid, little Ling’er, I am your second uncle...”
“Second uncle is a good person...”
“Look, this is a gift my second uncle brought you. It’s delicious…”
…
The watchman lay on the carpet, looking at the crying baby sitting on the ground in front of him. He tried his best to put on a gentle expression and carefully handed over the gifts in his hand one by one, trying to please the little girl.
However, things went against expectations. As he approached, the little girl seemed to have seen something sinister, and she cried even more violently.
"Why, I'm obviously a good clone..." The watchman was turned to stone on the spot. He really didn't expect that his gentle personality would be disliked by the little niece he cared about, and he was deeply shocked.
“Xiaoba, it’s really because of you, right?” The watchman quickly pinpointed the cause to Gu Snake.
Yes, my niece is afraid of herself, definitely because he has the smell of a snake.
“That’s nonsense! It’s obviously you who is too ugly.” Gu She sneered in his heart, quite gloating about his misfortune.
“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!”
The watchman didn't believe in evil, so he put on a smiling face again and racked his brains to come up with tricks to make the little girl laugh.
It’s a pity that no matter how he tried, the little girl would immediately cry in protest as soon as he got close.
After a while, the watchman was still working tirelessly, but the snake in his body was annoyed by the noise first. A snake-headed shadow suddenly emerged from the watchman's body, quickly extended to the little girl, and shouted: "Shut up! Stop!" Cry and eat you!"
“Damn, you stupid snake, don’t scare my little niece, she is afraid of me in the first place...” The watchman immediately cursed in his heart.
At this time, the little **** the other side stopped crying under the scolding. She stared blankly at the snake head in front of her. She actually stretched out her little hand and curiously touched the smooth scales on the snake's head.
"Wait, don't..." The watchman's eyelids twitched.
Snakes are such proud creatures, and the action of touching the head is considered a very insulting action to them. Even he would not dare to touch the snake's head...
The watchman instinctively thought that the snake was going to be angry, so he hurriedly concentrated his attention and tried to force the snake back into his body.
As a result, the next second, the imaginary scene of the snake's rage did not appear. The ghost of the snake obediently stopped in place, letting his little hands fumble around on top of its head without resisting. Instead, he actually felt something from the snake's emotions. Kind of...enjoyment?
“Huh?” The watcher was confused.
The snake's expression turned strange, and he turned to look at Mu You for confirmation.
Sure enough, Mu You's face also had an expression of surprise and uncertainty at this time.
Just when the little girl took action, Mu You and Ju She felt an undetectable surge of heavenly power at the same time.
It's just that this power of heaven is different from the heaven it is familiar with. It is gentler and less aggressive, so it instinctively feels no resistance. "Tsk, when did the way of heaven become so bad..."
The snake complained and put its head back into the waker's body.
From the time they were born until now, the four natural disaster beasts have been living very comfortably because there is no one in the world who can restrain them.
But in recent years, people who master the way of heaven suddenly began to appear one after another, first Chaos, then this kid Mu You, and now even such a little girl possesses the way of heaven...
For the entire world, this may be a sign that the biological level is improving as a whole, but for them, the natural disaster beasts, this is not good news.
…
At night, there is silence in the world.
Mu You looked at the sleeping baby in his arms, frowning slightly, and fell into deep thought.
After noticing a flash of heavenly power in his daughter during the day, he brought her over and wanted to study her power.
If he was simply allowed to see the previous illusion, it wouldn't mean much. After all, the little girl had stayed in the time cage with them for thousands of years, and inherited sporadic abilities such as peeking into the future. It wasn't too strange.
But then the power of heaven appeared on the little guy, and things were unusual.
Because in theory, the prerequisite for the emergence of the way of heaven is that there must be at least three divine powers, among which there must be a pair of opposing divine powers.
Since then, Mu You has been taking care of her daughter alone and interacting with her in various ways.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he could not recreate the previous scene. Neither the vision of the future nor the power of heaven appeared again.
“If you can’t think of it, just think about it tomorrow.”
Lin Xue held the tea cup, walked over to him and sat down, leaning on his shoulder, looking at the sleeping daughter in his arms, and smiled: "The little one is tired from your torment."
In fact, it is not strange for her mother that her daughter has some supernatural powers. After all, she swallowed so much divine energy in her mother's womb. The total amount of energy is enough to make an ordinary creature reach more than seven stars.
But the little girl’s star rating has not improved at all and is still sporadic, indicating that the energy must have been used elsewhere.
“Tomorrow, I want to take my daughter to Gaotian.” Mu You suddenly said.
He knew that he would probably not be able to understand it if he was left to figure it out on his own, so he planned to take the little girl to the City of Order and let two knowledgeable gods help her take a look.
“Okay, I’ll go with you.” Lin Xue nodded. You have to figure out what's going on with your daughter, otherwise you'll regret missing something.
…
Early the next morning, the two of them transferred to the Star Spirit Realm and headed to Gaotian.
Find the Blood God and the Djinn God in the City of Order, and explained the situation to the two gods.
“You humans have a really high reproductive efficiency. It’s only been a few days and you two have given birth to children.”
The Deng Shen looked at Lin Xue and Mu You, and then at the little baby on the table who was full of curiosity about the new environment and was crawling and groping around. His expression was quite strange.
“Well, actually it’s not that fast normally…”
Mu You wanted to say that this was not an ordinary situation for them. Normal humans also take ten months to conceive, but they spent the whole process in the realm of samadhi.
“I know.” The Djinn nodded. After all, he had lived in the star spirit world for so many years, so of course he knew the fertility laws of the creatures in the lower world.
Compared to the gestation period of hundreds of years for the protoss, the birth rate of one child per year for humans is still too terrifying.
“Let’s talk about the specific situation first.” Lilith’s head spoke in the cage.
Mu You nodded and told everything that happened yesterday, down to the smallest details.
“Are you sure that’s the power of heaven?” The Djinn couldn’t help but frown after hearing this.
Mu You shook his head: "That power is very similar to the way of heaven, but it is obviously different from my way of heaven. I can't be sure..."
"The conditions for the formation of the Way of Heaven will not change. If it is really the Way of Heaven, it will now have at least three kinds of divine power." Lilith pondered: "Aside from the illusion of the future, have you observed other phenomena similar to divine power?"
The couple looked at each other and shook their heads. They were guarding the little girl almost twenty-four hours a day. If there was a strange phenomenon, it would be impossible to miss it.
"Is it because she is too young and the divine power in her body is too weak to manifest?" The Djinn touched his chin: "How about I use lamp oil to amplify her ability?"
“Well, you can give it a try.” Lilith nodded. The miraculous power of the djinn has the effect of amplifying the power of other gods.
After obtaining the consent of the couple, the lamp **** took out a drop of lamp oil from the lamp and presented it to the little girl.
The little girl looked at the floating lamp oil in front of her, her eyes full of novelty, as if she felt the abundant energy in it, and she opened her mouth and swallowed the lamp oil in one gulp.
But then, he seemed to be choked by the strange smell of lamp oil again, shook his head and sneezed.
“A sneeze!”
This sound was like the autumn wind blowing away fallen leaves. The bottles and jars on the table suddenly seemed to be cut by invisible sharp blades, and they were cut into pieces in an instant.
"This is?"
The Djinn God was startled. He looked at the knife marks on the metal table and realized something.
Although the effect is very weak and can't even cut through this special metal table, this is indeed the effect of God-destroying divine power!
The little girl was stunned when she looked at the messy tabletop. She seemed to realize that she had done something wrong. She burst into tears. While crying, she climbed forward, picked up the cut bottles and jars one by one, and put them together. Together…
Then, these bottle fragments really stuck together!
It’s just that the little girl wasn’t that careful, and she eventually glued the bottles and jars into different shapes.
"Oh, God of Sewing has the divine power! God of Killing plus God of Sewing, no wonder she possesses the Way of Heaven. The little guy has really inherited the abilities of you two!" The Deng God looked at Mu You and Lin Xue in surprise, and then at Lilith.
Lilith also had a serious face at this time: "The reason why the way of heaven has been so difficult to appear since ancient times is because it is too difficult for opposing divine powers to coexist... Unexpectedly, the divine powers can also be indirectly integrated through fertility... In this way , from now on, the difficulty of being born as a Heavenly Daoist will be greatly reduced!"
Mu You was stunned when he heard this: "Hasn't it happened before in your divine race that children inherit the divine power of their fathers?"
"No."
The Djinn God shook his head: "It's not that it hasn't happened before, it's that the divine authority of the God Clan cannot give birth to an heir at all."
"oh?"
“The fertility rate of our race of gods is extremely low, not comparable to that of you humans. Moreover, the more powerful an individual is, the lower the probability of having offspring. Once one possesses divine power, the probability of having offspring will drop directly to zero.”
"So gods often have no heirs, only descendants. Even if they do, they are children born before they obtained divine power. But you humans, in terms of fertility, do not seem to be limited by energy."
The Djinn God said, looking at the little girl who was still playing with the bottle on the table: "In other words, she may be the first offspring in the world so far that was born from the union of theocratic people!" (End of this chapter)
