Chapter 306 The Truth of Void Resonance
Chapter 306 The Truth of Void Resonance
Hearing Mother Tree speak so matter-of-factly and so bluntly, Lezhi was momentarily at a loss for words. It was a normal physiological reaction; she felt lightheaded. Indeed, different perspectives lead to vastly different viewpoints.
Lezhi's lips twitched, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. If what the mother tree said was true, then the clansmen's previous guesses about the mother tree were somewhat inaccurate.
It is not only a god of this world, but a simple physiological phenomenon can cause the continental plates to change drastically. If Lezhi is not mistaken, the Mother Tree should be the collective consciousness of this world. Calling it a god is not wrong, but describing the Mother Tree as a god is a bit too objective.
According to Lezhi's own understanding, Jormungandr is the Mother Tree, and everything here exists in relation to its existence.
Having figured this out, Lezhi suddenly felt that the mother tree's answer just now seemed to be perfectly correct. From its perspective, it was probably just a simple physiological activity, and it didn't need to feel guilty about it.
On the contrary, those who depend on it for survival have no choice but to adapt when disaster strikes, and have nothing to complain about.
Heaven has already given them enough; the rest is up to them to work hard.
With a clear mind, Yuezhi understood everything in just a few seconds, and her body immediately felt relaxed.
"Okay, it's nothing. As long as the Void Resonance doesn't harm you, that's fine." This sounded like a belated explanation, but it was what Lezhi really thought.
No matter how powerful the Void Resonance is, it will eventually pass. But if this disaster brings hidden dangers to the continent, then the nature of the situation is completely different.
Sensing the underlying meaning in Yuezhi's words, Mother Tree let out a soft laugh, "Harm exists at all times, but I can withstand it. The universe is not peaceful, but I am not to be trifled with either, is that what I'm saying? I've seen that in your previous memories."
Attacked by the memories of the dead, Lezhi smiled knowingly, "Yes, the mother tree learns very quickly."
"That's for sure."
"By the way, why did Mother Tree suddenly come to see me? Is there something you need?" It couldn't just be to watch the kids fight, could it? Mother Tree wouldn't be that bored.
"Of course I came specifically to see you, and also to remind you to be careful of the Endless Abyss~"
"The Endless Abyss, where is that?" Lezhi asked in confusion, but received no answer.
The breeze still gently caressed him, but this time, Lezhi only felt the breeze's simple affection. When he opened his eyes, it felt like a lifetime had passed.
Time in the sea of consciousness seems to exist in another dimension.
From the moment Lezhi successfully subdued the wind to the moment his entire appearance was transformed by the mother tree, the conversation lasted for quite some time, but to onlookers it was merely a fleeting moment.
In Lei Xiu and Le Zhong's eyes, it seemed as if Le Zhi had changed his appearance in the blink of an eye.
Sensing something was amiss, Lei Xiu tightened his grip on the chang spear, only to find Le Zhi looking completely calm.
Meanwhile, Le Zhong on the other side was completely bewildered from beginning to end.
"Lezhi, what's wrong with you?" Hiss, had he just fainted for a while without knowing it? His last memory was that Lezhi had just finished dealing with the whirlwind and was about to stop. How did things suddenly change like this? "We're at an altitude of 10,000 meters, right? How could you suddenly..." Lezhong was usually calm, but he couldn't help but break down at this moment.
You can't blame Le Zhong for this. Anyone who witnessed what happened to Le Zhi today would probably have reacted the same way.
Well, except for Lei Xiu. He had already guessed some of the clues.
Lowering his eyelids, Lei Xiu sheathed the chang pistol behind his back. The feeling he had just experienced was unmistakable…
Although Le Zhong couldn't help but break down and ask a question, he knew very well that the only person who could calmly treat Le Zhi like a child in front of him and Lei Xiu was that one person.
What truly surprised Le Zhong was that the favor shown to Le Zhi far exceeded his previous understanding.
The existence of the Mother Tree has always been a sacred and ineffable miracle for the tree spirits. It is sacred because they were all born from the Mother Tree, and therefore the tree spirits naturally hold the Mother Tree in the highest esteem. But it is ineffable, which is quite unfortunate, because even with such a close relationship, the Mother Tree does not have much actual interaction with them.
Even when they want to communicate with the mother tree, they have to make the most of the right timing, people, and location to get any response from the mother tree.
Ultimately, it comes down to them being too weak.
As for the situation where Lei Xiu received the Mother Tree's message one after another, it wasn't unheard of, but rather very rare, almost nonexistent.
They were already used to this situation, but now...
Lezhi was different from ordinary people in his clan, a fact that was already evident from his birth, which was ten thousand times more difficult than that of his clan.
But at the beginning, before he met Lezhi, Lei Xiu didn't care. The cub had died, but the whole clan had already used all its strength to search for it. Lei Xiu didn't think that having one more of himself would make much of a difference, especially since he was already in a precarious situation himself.
Even though the mother tree specifically chose him to send a message, Lei Xiu only informed the Lingyu Clan. After learning that Lezhi had been successfully found, he paid no further attention to the little guy.
At the time, he had no idea that his future life would be intertwined with Lezhi. And from the current perspective, it was only his one-sided entanglement.
From the moment he first met Lezhi, this seemingly frail but fearless little guy completely captured Lei Xiu's attention.
He had never been so focused before, wanting only to see one person clearly.
But Lezhi was like a surprise. Just when he thought he knew Lezhi well enough, he would always tell Lei Xiu with facts that he was still far from understanding.
He is still a very, very long way from truly getting close to Lezhi.
The only advantage he had over others was that he had spent the most time with Lezhi, so he understood Lezhi's personality quite well. Therefore, even though he had already noticed something, Lei Xiu chose to remain silent. As for Le Zhong's doubts and surprise, what did that have to do with him?
With a calm and mysterious purple light in his dark eyes, Lei Xiu looked up at Le Zhi, quietly waiting for him to explain, ready to help Le Zhi clean up the mess at any time.
With a wry smile, Le Zhi followed Le Zhong's scrutinizing gaze. He looked down and the dazzling gems almost blinded him. These things were far too conspicuous; Le Zhi couldn't pretend he didn't know about them.
"Okay, this was all done by the mother tree."
“…I knew it,” Le Zhong muttered. Who else could it be but the Time Mother Tree?
“Uncle Le Zhong already guessed it, so why ask?” From Le Zhong’s undisguised expression, it was clear that he was not surprised by the answer.
"Alright, now is not the time for idle chatter. Zhizhi, did the Mother Tree say anything else to you?" Last time at the birthplace, Lei Xiu had already witnessed the Mother Tree's special treatment of Lezhi, so he could calmly accept whatever was happening now.
Reminded by Lei Xiu, Le Zhi stopped arguing with Le Zhong and instead brought up the point that had puzzled him.
"The Endless Abyss, it really is there." Le Zhong and Lei Xiu did not show too much surprise when they heard Le Zhi's words.
This made Lezhi realize that something was wrong. "You know, could the Endless Abyss be the place I saw before? I don't think anyone mentioned it to me before."
