Snake Immortal: The Tale of a Snake’s Cultivation to Immortality

Chapter 713 662: Move mountains and fill seas

"......"

Xu Hei hesitated for a moment, unsure of what Night Owl was trying to convey, and could only say, "Very strong."

"And what else?" Night Owl smiled and asked again.

"And... very strong," Xu Hei thought for a moment and repeated.

"Can't you use a different word?" Night Owl said impatiently.

After a moment of silence, Xu Hei suddenly showed a look of reverence and said, "The Grand Elder's divine skills are unparalleled, invincible in the world, with none above you."

Only then did Night Owl show a satisfied expression, feigning modesty, "Invincible in the world is an exaggeration; I still have a few opponents."

Seeing Night Owl's smug demeanor, Xu Hei was speechless inside.

The two ascended rapidly, and before long, they passed through the earth's crust and reached the rock layer.

"Xu Hei, I have a task for you."

Night Owl spoke earnestly, "There are still many human cultivators on this Northern Continent. Go and recruit them for our use."

Just as the Sea Star Demon Clan could recruit the demons of the East Sea, they could do the same.

Xu Hei nodded, "I was thinking the same, but my primordial spirit is severely damaged..."

At this point, he fell silent.

Xu Hei had burned thirty percent of his primordial spirit; he only wanted to retreat and heal, with no mind to recruit anyone. The implication was clear—he needed some treasures to heal.

Night Owl chuckled, "Do you know the fastest way to heal a primordial spirit?"

Of course, Xu Hei knew, but he didn't answer. Instead, he feigned curiosity and asked, "I don't know! Please enlighten me, Grand Elder."

Night Owl was pleased with Xu Hei's expression and said, "It's by absorbing and refining others' primordial spirits."

With a wave of his hand, a crow flew out and landed in front of Xu Hei, emanating a strong primordial spirit fluctuation.

"This crow has absorbed Yuantai's primordial spirit. Refining it will more than suffice to heal yours," Night Owl said with a smile.

Xu Hei took the crow, excitedly clasping his hands in gratitude, "Thank you, Grand Elder!"

Without external treatment, it would take decades in seclusion to heal a damaged primordial spirit, and pills wouldn't be very effective.

Devouring others' primordial spirit power was the best method.

Moments later, Xu Hei returned to the surface.

The Northern Continent was now a vast ocean, with only the Earth God's forbidden land remaining above water.

Large ships were anchored near the Earth God's forbidden land, crowded with human cultivators.

Everyone's faces were filled with anxiety and confusion.

Their homes were gone, and the land of the entire Sea Star was now just a small area. With no land left, where could they go?

Surviving such a terrifying flood was already a blessing, while many others drowned, swept away by the waters, their bodies lost to the sea.

This disaster came without warning and was extremely deadly.

"The Divine Transformation Ancestor of the Sea Star dared to offend the Earth God; we have no place to stay anymore," an elder lamented.

"I heard that glaciers will appear in the far north; maybe we can settle there," a young cultivator suggested.

"That's the Ice God's territory; how dare we human cultivators set foot there?" the elder replied.

Despair was evident in everyone's eyes, with no future or hope in sight.

Ships would eventually decay, and without land, there would be no wood. Sooner or later, they would all fall into the water.

With the ferocity of the Sea Star Demon Clan, falling into the water meant certain death for humans.

"Whoosh!"

Two figures shot up from the water.

One was entirely black, with only the eyes visible, and the other wore a purple robe, with a blue left eye and a black right eye. They were Xu Hei and Night Owl.

All eyes immediately focused on them.

The elder's eyes widened in shock, recognizing them as Divine Transformation cultivators! More importantly, they bore no characteristics of the Sea Star Demon Clan.

"It's up to you now; I have other matters to attend to."

Night Owl gave Xu Hei no chance to refuse, disappearing in a flash.

Xu Hei was helpless. He scanned the crowd and said, "I am Xu Hei, a cultivator from the Divine Continent Star. In one week, I will fill the sea and create a new land."

At these words, everyone was initially stunned, then their eyes filled with joy.

In an instant, the despair in their hearts was swept away. How could a Divine Transformation cultivator's promise be false?

"However, I have one condition."

Xu Hei said slowly, "Land is fought for and seized! I hope that when war comes, you will stand up and not give away the land. Do you understand?"

Xu Hei didn't believe his speech could move hearts, but as long as he conveyed his meaning clearly, these people should know how to choose.

If they didn't fight, where would they find land to survive?

When Xu Hei was just a little snake in the wild, he understood this principle deeply. Even beasts knew to fight for territory, let alone cultivators.

"Yes!"

"We will follow the senior's decree!"

Responses came from the many ships, and everyone bowed deeply to Xu Hei.

Xu Hei took out several empty ships, placed them on the ground, and then flew into the Earth God's forbidden land.

He needed to heal!

Additionally, he had to practice the Earth God's teachings on moving mountains and filling seas.

Xu Hei found a secluded spot, took out the crow, and threw it into the Demon God Cauldron for refining. Instantly, pure and powerful primordial spirit energy surged out, flowing into his body.

Xu Hei felt as if he was soaking in an icy spring, his blurred consciousness clearing, and his damaged primordial spirit rapidly healing.

At this rate, he would be fully recovered in less than three days.

"The Earth God's forbidden land, this place can serve as a base. If anyone dares to come, I'll just burrow into the ground," Xu Hei thought to himself.

While Xu Hei was healing.

More and more ships gathered, all survivors of the flood, and Xu Hei's promise to create land had spread.

But the Sea Star Demon Clan had no interest in these matters.

They had invested all their strength in launching a great war on the Divine Continent Star. That war resulted in the fall of a Divine Transformation Ancestor, Bai Ye, from the Divine Puppet Sect, along with over a thousand Elemental Infant cultivators.

Another Ancestor, Liu Yunjing, had burned over half of his primordial spirit, suffering severe injuries and falling into a long coma.

This was almost equivalent to losing two Divine Transformation combat powers.

This finally allowed the Sea Star, who had been at a disadvantage, to regain some ground, but they also paid a significant price.

To this day, the forces of both sides were evenly matched.

…………

A week later, outside the Earth God's forbidden land.

Xu Hei appeared in the sky, still in his previous attire, immediately drawing everyone's attention. All eyes were wide open, staring unblinkingly.

The body-refining cultivators within the Earth God's forbidden land also came out, standing behind Xu Hei.

They, too, wanted to witness this grand spectacle.

A Divine Transformation cultivator casting spells—if they could comprehend even one or two tenths, it would greatly benefit them.

Xu Hei stood above the sea, raising his arms high. A rock imprint appeared on his forehead, and the mighty Earth Law surged out, flowing into the sea, into the earth below.

In an instant, the entire sea surface shook violently, accompanied by a rumbling sound.

"Move mountains!"
