The Seven Mansions of the South

In the blink of an eye, almost half a month has passed since Chisongzi and Wu Luo arrived at the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

After learning of Fu Kui's whereabouts, the two did not rush to the South Sea.

On the contrary, Chisongzi traversed almost all the Mountain Folk villages and towns in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range before officially setting off for the South Sea.

"Once we cross this mountain range, everything will truly be different."

Looking down at the mountains below, Wu Luo rarely expressed his feelings.

The fact that Wu Luo, a battle maniac, could utter such a sentiment speaks volumes about the vast difference between the two sides of the mountain range.

North of these mountains lies the territory of the Mountain Folk, where bizarre roads, bridges, and grappling hooks connect the entire range, suggesting human habitation everywhere. Hang gliders and Butterfly People soar through the sky...

Bronze Horse and bicycles running on the ground...

As far as the eye could see, the Mountain Folk had truly conquered this Hundred Lands Mountain Range, and even the Gods of the Hundred Lands tacitly acknowledged their rule. However, once they crossed this mountain range, everything changed dramatically.

South of this mountain range, near the southern coastline, the forests present a very pristine state.

There are no bridges, no grappling hooks, and not even many villages or towns...

Only a few main roads barely manage to traverse the mountains and forests, extending all the way to Mount Putuo in the South Sea.

Through prior research, Chisongzi knew that these main roads were built by the Mountain Folk when they were managing the South Sea.

After the floods in the South Sea were completely eliminated, the few survivors who were left naturally moved to the north, and this area gradually became the territory of spirits and beasts.

However, those with foresight could see that it was only a matter of time before the Mountain Folk developed this area.

The reason it's left undeveloped now is purely out of respect for that "Great Chun Tree God".

"That must be the territory of the Spring God, right?"

Thinking of this, Chisongzi turned his head to look at another undeveloped area on the other side.

That is the source of this mountain range, and also the habitat of the vast majority of the Gods of the Hundred Lands.

At least there are a few main roads along the South Sea coast, but that area is purely natural ecology.

Not only that, the entire area was surrounded by mountains, with only one river leading to Yunmeng Marsh open to the public.

In other words, if you want to get to that area, you either have to fly there directly or cross the entire Great Yunmeng Marsh. Either way, it's quite difficult.

"The ancient Spring God of spring has stepped down, and now a new Spring God of spring governs that region."

Gently unfolding the Living Map in his hand, Wu Luo corrected Chisongzi's statement without even raising his head.

The newly born Spring God calls himself "Lord Lingguang" and has a close relationship with the Mount Yunmeng.

"The Divine Witch specifically told me before he came that Chi might be one of the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth who briefly appeared on the Profound Yellow Pagoda when the Celestial Person Dao Proving."

Wu Luo only raised his head again after confirming that the Living Map was still valid in this area.

"In other words, if Chi Butian hadn't died, he would have been destined to become a Great Heavenly Deity, just like the ' Lord Meng Zhang ' who guards the East Sea today." This was the first time Chisongzi had learned these inside stories, and he couldn't help but look somewhat surprised.

"The Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth? The future Great Heavenly Deity?"

"Tell me everything else you know at once!"

"Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be scared to death by you before I even see Fu Kui on my way there."

Listening to Chisongzi's complaints, Wu Luo knew that his old friend had finally calmed down.

After all, although there had been some conflict over Fu Kui, they were still old friends of hundreds of years; there was no obstacle they couldn't overcome. "You're wronging me. How was I supposed to know we'd be going to the South Sea?"

"Whether it's the Great Chun Tree God or Lord Lingguang, they are not evil gods or calamities, and they won't stop us."

Wu Luo paused slightly at this point.

"However, Lord Lingguang has seven subordinate gods: Well Wood Hound, Ghost Metal Goat, Willow Earth Roe Deer, Star Sun Horse, Extended Net Moon Deer, Wings Fire Serpent, and Chariot Water Earthworm." "They are usually scattered throughout the South Sea, maintaining the balance between the South Sea and the Hundred Lands Mountain Range."

"All deities and beings born in the South Sea have received the blessings of the Chi Men and are willing to obey their commands."

"It is precisely because of the existence of the pools that Lord Lingguang possesses supreme authority in the South Sea, equivalent to half of the 'God of the South Sea '." Wu Luo said half because Lord Lingguang never rightfully inherited the status and subordinate deity of the God of the East Sea like Lord Meng Zhang.

Judging from the current situation, Wu Luo even felt that Lord Lingguang seemed to look down on the title of "God of the South Sea"?

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why, as the de facto ruler of the South Sea, it has always remained confined to the territory of the Great Chun Tree God.

"Those seven deities you mentioned... are they those few?"

Just then, Chisongzi suddenly raised an eyebrow and pointed to the distant South Sea, saying...

As if in response to Chisongzi's words, a dazzling red light suddenly burst forth on the distant horizon.

The next second, a long, crimson snake came into view.

The long serpent had wings on its back, as if it were formed from flames, and each breath it exhaled could illuminate half the sky and evaporate countless seawater.

Opposite the crimson serpent, a continuous stream of black mist was appearing out of nowhere.

This black fog, gushing forth from the depths of the South Sea, was completely different from ordinary smog; it was filled with evil and malice.

Most importantly, the crimson serpent and the black mist continued their fierce battle.

The black mist also imitated the appearance of the crimson serpent, gradually transforming into a black serpent.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The noise generated by their battle was gradually increasing, and soon it could be heard even from where Wu Luo and Chisongzi were.

The only saving grace was that the crimson serpent wasn't fighting alone.

As the Wings Fire Serpent gradually fell into a predicament, the figures of Well Wood Hound, Ghost Metal Goat, Willow Earth Roe Deer, Star Sun Horse, Extended Net Moon Deer, and Chariot Water Earthworm appeared in succession in the sky above the South Sea.

When these seven subordinate gods appeared simultaneously, the image of a firebird also faintly appeared in the sky above the South Sea.

The firebird had three tufts on its head, and its entire body was vermilion, but it was adorned with gold dots on its fingertips and wing tail.

Although it is only a fictional image.

But when the firebird looked down at the South Sea from the sky, a faint pattern of the Li trigram flashed in its pupils, and its aura was overwhelming.

In an instant, the previously menacing black mist was suppressed.

As the seven subordinate gods cried out in unison, the entire South Sea seemed to return to its former tranquility.

Only the unseen churning in the depths of the ocean tells of how this crisis was only temporarily suppressed, not completely eradicated.
