"That's fantastic! The data from the meteorological bureau's carbon satellite shows that China's carbon dioxide emissions have completely bottomed out! That Dragon Vein is incredibly useful!"
Looking at the data transmitted from the meteorological bureau, Zhou Jianhua happily reported to his superiors that the areas that should have been bright red were no longer displayed, as they were now below the carbon satellite detection values.
"Great! This gives us a new policy to address environmental issues, and it can also effectively prevent global warming."
The elderly voice on the other end of the phone repeatedly cheered.
Hearing this, Zhou Jianhua rubbed his nose. "So what if it's global warming? Now that we have the Teleportation Array, let's speed up our exploration into deeper space. Let them play with Earth. We'll go to outer space to build our infrastructure, and we won't take them with us."
Anyway, it's those countries' own doing that's their mess, let them suffer the consequences.
The old man shook his head upon hearing this. After all, Huaxia was the foundation of the nation, and they couldn't just ignore it like that. However, he didn't deny the underlying meaning.
"Remember this: establishing absolute trust with Penglai is key to Huaxia's future glory."
"Yes, I understand!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jianhua immediately responded with a shout.
After meeting Su Mu and witnessing the various abilities he displayed, he naturally understood Su Mu's importance and immediately responded with a stern shout.
No one else knew about their conversation. If anyone else had overheard it, they might have remarked, "Is Huaxia really going to turn to the dark side?"
However, if he really turns to the dark side, it's not necessarily a bad thing.
Isn't it said that turning evil makes you ten times stronger, while turning good makes you three times weaker? And turning good makes you more likely to die immediately.
If that's the case, then it would be better to just turn evil.
Qinling Mountains, Su Mu watched the dissipating dark clouds, and the dragon Spirit of the Dragon Vein, whose body had shrunk and appeared extremely illusory, plunged directly into the spiritual spring with a splash.
"Can't you take your time with housework?"
Su Mu shook his head. This Spirit of the Dragon Vein was working way too hard today; he wondered what it had been doing.
The Spirit of the Dragon Vein thrashed about in the spiritual spring, raising its head at Su Mu, but said nothing.
However, it can't speak.
Su Mu calculated the time; it had been almost a day since he had gone back. It would be better to go back and check on things first, as the Teleportation Array there hadn't been removed yet.
Thinking of this, Su Mu scratched his head, got up, and left the Qinling Mountains.
"Help me build a house in the Qinling Mountains, just make sure it's fully equipped."
After descending the Qinling Mountains, Su Mu returned to the city and found Zhou Jianhua, making a request: he wanted to cultivate for an extended period of time up there, so he needed a house prepared for him.
Otherwise, every time I want to go to the Immortal Cultivation Realm, I have to go down the mountain, which is too inconvenient.
Zhou Jianhua naturally had no problem with such a small request, and immediately assured Su Mu that he would finish building the house right away.
Hearing this, Su Mu felt relieved. After returning to his rented room, he successfully returned to the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
"You're awake?"
Su Mu had just opened her eyes when she saw Gu Yu looking at her. "You're really strange. The teleportation was already complete, so why did you meditate for a while? Were you secretly contacting the person on the other end of the Teleportation Array?"
"I was just thinking about some things."
Su Mu smiled upon hearing this, but didn't say anything more.
Seeing this, Gu Yu pursed her lips but didn't press the matter further. She just felt that Su Mu was becoming increasingly mysterious.
This Teleportation Array requires both parties to set it up; they need to have something in common for the two Teleportation Array to be linked. Su Mu is setting up the Teleportation Array on this side, but who is setting it up on the other side? And how are they synchronized?
If it weren't for the ability to connect with each other, this Teleportation Array wouldn't have been able to be set up.
Moreover, it consumed so many Spirit Stone.
Gu Yu looked at the scene on the ground where almost all the spirit stones had been used up, leaving only a few Spirit Stone in the corner of the Teleportation Array array, and became even more puzzled.
I wonder where this Teleportation Array is connected to, that it would cost such a large number of Spirit Stone.
Su Mu got up and picked up the remaining Spirit Stone, feeling a pang of regret.
Tens of millions of Spirit Stone, just like that, all gone.
"Everything's alright for now, let's go back."
Su Mu took the core part of the formation and then put the entire formation away.
Gu Yu nodded slightly, but seemed somewhat absent-minded on the way back.
"What's wrong with you?"
Su Mu clearly sensed Gu Yu's unusual behavior and couldn't help but ask.
" The Heavenly Tribulation is approaching."
Gu Yu raised her head, glanced at Su Mu, and then looked up at the sky, her expression showing some unease.
Heavenly Tribulation
Upon hearing this, Su Mu's heart skipped a beat. "Ink is useless to you. If it were useful, I could write a thousand or eight hundred for you."
Su Mu felt somewhat helpless; he genuinely didn't know how to help the other party overcome this Heavenly Tribulation.
If Su Mu had known, she definitely wouldn't have minded helping the other party.
At the very least, after helping the other party, both sides can cooperate in the future. If there are any ancient sites or similar places, Su Mu might even be able to obtain a considerable amount of Spirit Stone.
Gu Yu gave a wry smile, "We'll try using a sacrificial text then, and see if we can get Heavenly Dao to show leniency."
She had no other choice. Sensing that the Heavenly Tribulation was drawing ever closer, she grew increasingly uneasy.
The glimmer of hope lies with Su Mu, that's true. But if one doesn't know how to obtain this glimmer of hope, will they simply vanish into nothingness under the Heavenly Tribulation?
She estimated that, aside from a slim chance of survival, the remaining 90% were likely to perish.
The atmosphere became somewhat somber on the way back after discussing this heavy topic.
After Su Mu returned to the courtyard, Gu Yu simply sat outside, flipping through some books in her hands, seemingly looking up some information, while her other hand seemed to be sparking with inspiration.
Within the spiritual light was an object resembling a battle robe, presumably some kind of defensive Law Treasure. It was being refined now, and should come in handy during the Heavenly Tribulation.
Xiao Lian continued writing her calligraphy, appearing extremely diligent.
"Young Master is back. If you have some free time, you should write more calligraphy. Recently, many demons have appeared both inside and outside the Great Liang, attacking people in various places and eating many people. Right now, these calligraphic works are almost sold out."
Xiao Lian probably learned the news from Xiao Wu, and now she's actually talking about the situation in Great Liang.
"Have demons suddenly become rampant lately?"
Su Mu frowned as he listened. It seemed that in the beginning, because the sacrifice failed to summon auspicious beasts and thus could not deter the demons, coupled with the inability to gather National Fortune, news of demons rising up everywhere was heard.
"Yes, lately, demons have been attacking and devouring people, and they've become far more rampant than before."
Let's talk about the calligraphy later.
Su Mu thought for a moment, then waved his hand. "Let's think about whether there's any way to help Gu Yu overcome this Heavenly Tribulation."
The widespread rampage of demons is not something Mo Bao can solve. It would be better to think about how to help Gu Yu overcome the Heavenly Tribulation. Once Gu Yu overcomes the Heavenly Tribulation, she will naturally be able to suppress those demons given her status.
