White Spirit Snake’s response was completely beyond Battle Goddess Bi Qiong and Battle God Zi Yang’s expectations.
An Lin also didn’t expect for White Spirit Snake to be so forthcoming.
Was the female too trusting of him?
Even if she admired him, this amount of trust was still a bit excessive, no?
He didn’t mull over this for long. Naturally, he wouldn’t let this opportunity slip by.
“White Spirit Snake, you’re so understanding! Now, tell me, why are you guys here? Also, what information do you have regarding these unusual phenomena?” An Lin smiled warmly as he asked these questions.
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong stared daggers at An Lin. However, she stayed silent and didn’t attempt to shut down his questions.
As for Battle God Zi Yang, he was even more agreeable. He remained silent and stood to the side respectfully.
Right now, White Spirit Snake was clearly the leader of the three.
“Hmm… Where should I start?” White Spirit Snake pondered.
“No worries, you can start from the beginning and tell me everything. I have heaps of time. The more detailed your explanation, the better.” There was a look of anticipation on An Lin’s face.
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong: “…”
White Spirit Snake nodded upon hearing this. “Then I’ll start from that event three years ago, when the Dark Wing Tribe attempted to invade this realm. At that time, the Dark Wing Tribe utilized some outside power and opened a passageway between the Tai Chu Continent and the Wa Realm. Not only that, they even sent the Dark Night Monarch down into the Wa Realm in an attempt to seize the Evil-Slaying Sword.
“Although Senior An Lin defeated them and even destroyed their passageway, that kind of realm-linking passageway is reopenable no matter how many times it’s destroyed. The Wa Realm still faces the risk of being invaded.
“The most important question is, what method did the Dark Wing Tribe use to create this passageway? And what kind of relationship between the Tai Chu Continent and Wa Realm were they taking advantage of? Currently, the only passageway that exists between the Tai Chu Continent and the Wa Realm is the Southern Heavenly Gate. We must identify and fix the flaw that the Dark Wing Tribe takes advantage of when they opened the passageway between these two realms.”
An Lin nodded in agreement.
If foreign beings could infiltrate into Tina’s Divine Mirror World without her knowing, Tina would also feel extremely uneasy.
“Afterward, Her Majesty Nuwa sent the Snake Spirit Clan down into the Wa Realm to investigate. However, their investigations revealed absolutely nothing.
“In this past month, numerous unusual phenomena have appeared on the Wa Realm. The temperature has risen, and the density of vital energy has also increased significantly. Her Majesty speculates that there’s a high possibility that the entire realm is going to undergo some change. The bulk of the change will occur after an indigenous cultivator of the Soul Formation Stage successfully undergoes their tribulation.
“By analyzing the spatial nodes of vital energy fluctuations, Big Sister Black deduced the location of the vital juncture of this realm’s naturally formed spell formation. The place that we’re standing on now is the secondary vital juncture of the spell formation.”
White Spirit Snake slowly explained what she knew.
“Hang on, this place is the secondary vital juncture of the spell formation? Vital junctures can be split into primary and secondary?” An Lin was astonished.
“Secondary vital juncture refers to the superficial vital juncture. When this spell formation is fully formed, its true vital juncture will lie below the surface of Earth.” White Spirit Snake smiled and pointed toward the ground. “Big Sister Black is underground right now. She’s guarding the true vital juncture of this spell formation.”
“The Big Sister Black that you speak of… is Black Spirit Snake, am I correct?” An Lin was a bit nervous as he asked this.
“That’s right! She’s Big Sister Black Spirit Snake.
“I only just found out that I’m an attendant to Her Majesty Nuwa. Ten thousand years ago, I suffered some fatal injury. After falling into a deep slumber and receiving nourishment in the Five Elements Divine Lotus for ten thousand years, I was finally revived.”
White Spirit Snake smiled daintily and didn’t hesitate at all when replying.
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong massaged her brows in frustration. Why was Master White telling An Lin everything?
As expected, it’s her!
Panic gripped at An Lin’s heart.
He had already held suspicions regarding White Spirit Snake’s identity since quite a while ago. Thus, he wasn’t all that surprised to learn that she was a supreme being who had been revived. What he was most afraid of was the fact that Black Spirit Snake was also here! That snake was extremely hostile toward him. What would he do if she suddenly came to pummel him?
“So, what’s the point of guarding this vital juncture?”
If significant changes really did occur to the spell formation, then the vital juncture of the spell formation would often be the core of change. However, Nuwa didn’t inform the Heavenly Court of this matter beforehand. Presumably, this place held some hidden secrets?
“This matter… is a top secret of my tribe…” A look of hesitation flashed across White Spirit Snake’s beautiful face.
“Are you treating me as an outsider again?”
An Lin frowned in disappointment and hurt.
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong instantly drew her sword upon seeing White Spirit Snake’s look of hesitation. She glowered at An Lin and hissed, “Are you not an outsider?”
“Exactly! Master White, ignore him. This is our tribe’s secret!” Battle God Zi Yang was afraid of White Spirit Snake, but he was even more afraid of Black Spirit Snake’s reaction if she found out about this. Thus, he was in full agreement with Bi Qiong’s viewpoint.
“Don’t say that! Senior An Lin isn’t an outsider!” White Spirit Snake hurriedly spoke to make her own views clear.
She took a deep breath as she gazed at An Lin. “The Wa Realm needs to absorb energy from amid the chaos when leveling up this time. We used a Chaotic Spatial Pestle to determine where the realm would absorb energy when leveling up. Our results indicate that it’s from the primary vital juncture of the spell formation.
“Not only is this vital juncture the transmission port for chaotic energy, but it’s also the greatest flaw of the spell formation.”
An Lin’s expression became serious. “So you’re saying that the Dark Wing Tribe found the location of the Wa Realm by taking advantage of this chaotic energy transmission port?”
White Spirit Snake nodded. “This explanation is the most probable. That’s why Big Sister Black is guarding the transmission port.”
“Then what’s the reason for you guarding this secondary vital juncture?” An Lin asked curiously.
“M-hm…” White Spirit Snake pursed her lips slightly. “Because there’s a big probability that this secondary vital juncture contains a passageway that leads toward the Snake Spirit Clan’s territory in the Ancient Tai Chu Realm.”
“What?” An Lin was momentarily baffled.
A thoughtful look appeared on Tina’s face. “Is it because this realm is also constructed from the Realm Essence Crystals and Realm Core Fragments from the Ancient Tai Chu Realm?”
White Spirit Snake turned toward the little fairy in surprise. “Eh? You also understand such matters?”
“A senior briefly mentioned this to me before.” Tina’s face flushed a slight shade of red. Of course, I won’t tell you that I’ve also created a world, she added in her mind.
Even though her Divine Mirror World could sense the Ancient Tai Chu Realm when leveling up, it had never absorbed external energy before. She didn’t know where its energy came from, and the boundary between the energy existing and not existing was extremely blurry.
Perhaps, existing was the same as not existing, and not existing was the same as existing?
Only such an explanation could account for the miracle of birthing something from nothing.
“Then I’ll also stay and accompany you guys.
“Everybody is responsible for the rise and fall of a realm. This matter already pertains to the safety of my native land. In order to maintain the peace on Earth, it’s only right for me to lend a hand,” An Lin said with an air of righteousness.
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong and Battle God Zi Yang were both rendered speechless. Perhaps An Lin was the only person brazen enough to stick his nose into the Snake Spirit Clan’s matters.
Moreover, he had come up with such a righteous and indisputable excuse.
White Spirit Snake smiled happily as she nodded. “Senior An Lin is the best!”
