Chapter 524 Vortex Eye
"Ang~~~"

Above the river, the green dragon raised its head and let out a loud dragon roar, releasing its dragon power without reservation, almost forming circles of green ripples that fell into the river surface below and spread out in the surging black river.

The river rushing above the stars quickly responded.

“Hua La La, Hua La La~~~”

In the east, the black water was boiling and a small mountain was rising from the bottom of the water.

At first, it was really just yellowish-brown rocks with corals and water plants on them.

Gradually, the turtle shell appeared under the rocks.

It turns out that those sharp "rocks" are bone spurs growing on the turtle shell.

The length and width of the turtle shell are more than a hundred feet, like a small island.

A dragon's head popped out from under the turtle shell, "Moo~~~~"

It made a sound like both a dragon and a cow, responding to the roar of the Azure Dragon.

In the west, beneath the black water, a shadow darker than the black water emerged and quickly approached the Azure Dragon.

In the south, the mermaid with a beautiful face surfaced first and looked up at the northern sky.

An old mermaid exclaimed in a strange tone, "It's a blue dragon with the blood of the ancient dragon king!

The Dragon King is summoning the water creatures in the Sky River. Since we happened to encounter them, we must obey the ancient oath and follow the orders of the true dragon. "

Hundreds of mermaids swam quickly towards the direction where the dragon's roar came from, leaving messy splashes of water along the way.

In the north, a water monster was about to emerge, but then quickly sank.

Because further north, a group of heavenly soldiers and generals were roaring towards this side, stepping on huge waves hundreds of feet high.

"Demon Dragon, you are showing off your magical powers above the Sky River, summoning a group of demons to gather together. What is your intention?"

The leading celestial general was eight feet tall, holding a bright silver nine-toothed rake in his hand. The heart-protection mirror on his golden armor reflected brilliant golden light, and his bright red cloak fluttered, making him look very majestic and domineering.

"Is the general coming here Marshal Tianpeng?"

The Azure Dragon paused its howl and transformed back into the Bodhisattva Pu Shan with bright eyes and fluttering green clothes.

She first lowered her altitude so that she could look at the heavenly soldiers and generals who were stepping on the huge waves, and then asked the leading Marshal Tianpeng.

"My humble self, Nipushan, greets His Excellency the Marshal."

Tianpeng stared at her pretty face again and again, without any strange expression, as if he was just recognizing her, but his voice and tone changed obviously.

"Master Pushan, Tianpeng greets you."

After the ceremony, Tianpeng asked softly, "Master Pushan, why did you come to this remote place and summon the water monsters in the Milky Way?"

The two main tasks of the Tianhe Navy he led were to prevent floods in the Tianhe River and stop water monsters from causing chaos.

If there were a hole somewhere in the Milky Way, the gods and powerful beings in heaven would have nothing to fear, but the people on earth would suffer a lot.

Either it rains heavily, with torrents dropping down 3,000 feet, or the water volume in a large river or lake somewhere suddenly increases and the water level rises, flooding both banks and even washing away the entire earth.

Demonic threats are also a key target of prevention.

The demonic plague targets not only the ancient, prehistoric, and ancient water monsters in the Milky Way, but also the evil demons from outside the sky.

The appearance of Qinglong himself near Tianhe has attracted the attention of Tianhe’s navy.

Because she has now entered the Tianhe Navy's defense zone.

If she flew away directly, the Tianhe Navy would not care about her.

But she roared like a dragon above the Tianhe River, summoning all the monsters in the river, and the Tianhe water master had to respond.

"Marshal Tianpeng, do you know that there is a vortex under the Milky Way here?" Pushan said.

Tianpeng seemed to be thinking about something, and asked, "Master Pushan, did you enter the Heavenly River through the vortex below?"

"There are many eddies connecting the Heavenly River and the rivers on earth. The corresponding river here is"

Tian Peng counted with his fingers and continued, "It should be the Black Dragon River west of the Liusha River in Xiniu Hezhou, right?"

This kind of vortex is difficult for ordinary people to reach, but for the "Eight Heavenly Dragons" with ancient blood, as long as they avoid the eye of the vortex and cross the divine dimension of the five elements of water, it will be as easy as walking on flat ground.

After all, "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" are the "Shinto sect" of Buddhism, and are also recognized by the Heavenly Court and "God".

Like other Shinto "gods" such as Fushi and Gongcao Shen, Pushan can directly enter the higher Shinto dimension.

Marshal Tian Peng is an old immortal (his realm is higher than that of a celestial immortal, but not that of a golden immortal), and he certainly has this knowledge.

"Master, you should know that the Jade Emperor once issued an order to the four dragon palaces, strictly ordering the dragon clan to cross the vortex of the Celestial River, skip the thirty-three days and reach the waters of the Celestial River directly. Why did Master go against the laws of heaven and summon the river monster?" Tianpeng shouted.

Pushan said: "I am not from the Dragon Palace of the four seas, southeast, northwest, and north. I come from Lingshan!"

——So the Jade Emperor’s ban has no effect on me!

“Today I am hunting down a little evil demon who is extremely evil. She is cunning and scheming. She escaped into the vortex of the Tianhe River and used the complex and changeable water conditions around the vortex to avoid my pursuit.

So I came to the Milky Way next door, ready to borrow a group of water monsters to go to the vortex below to help encircle the demon boy.

Once we catch the demon cubs, I will definitely send them back to Tianhe."

——What I’m going to do has nothing to do with your Heavenly Palace, so you, the “border guard”, should stop complaining here. We don’t interfere with each other. I won’t bother you, and you just watch the show from the sidelines!

Tian Peng asked: "Who exactly is the 'devil' that Master Nun is chasing? Why is it worth Master Nun mobilizing so many troops?"

Pushan hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "It was Yu Fengxian who blasphemed God, practiced magic, killed innocent people, and harmed the people.

She and the water monsters of the Howling Wind Bay formed an army formation, traveling unhindered in the rapids at an extremely fast speed, and leaving no trace.

"Oh, it's her." Tianpeng nodded, with a look of realization in his eyes.

——It turns out that this Pushan girl is the bald woman of Jin Chanzi.

At this moment, he didn't know about the change in Yingxiang Mansion, and didn't know that Yaochan was killed by Xiaoyu.

After all, the matter of Yingxiang Mansion is just a trivial matter in the Three Realms.

In addition, Tianhe belongs to the "border" of heaven.

“Marshal Tianpeng” sounds very majestic, but he is actually a “frontier general”.

Even the news from the heaven is not well-informed, let alone the "current events" in the human world.

But he certainly understood the bet on God's will at the gate of Yu Fengxian's government office, and he must have secretly laughed at the Emperor of Heaven more than once. Later, he heard about the grievances between Yu Fengxian and the Eight Immortals of the West and Yu Chan from the talisman envoy, and knew that the unrest in the thirty-six countries in the Xisha region was related to Jin Chanzi.

After hesitating for a long time, he still declined politely, "Master, please forgive me. If the Tianhe water monster causes trouble to the world, the Emperor of Heaven will be furious, and Tianpeng cannot bear the responsibility."

This is a bit exaggerated.

A certain immortal came to the Tianhe River to capture a few river monsters, just like Xiaoyu's ghost son Chi Miao, who took advantage of his break from work to run to the Wangchuan River to pick a few herbs to prepare a "soul-nourishing pill" for his godmother - in theory it violated the laws of heaven and the underworld, but in fact, as long as nothing serious happened, no one would care.

As the manager of the Wangchuan River, Meng Po, sometimes saw Fatty Chi collecting herbs for his mother, and she admired his filial piety. She kindly gave him some advice and taught him how to prepare the medicine!

Tianpeng said this simply because he didn't want to take any risk at all.

After Pushan said "hunt down Yu Fengxian", he completely lost the desire to make friends with him.

Yu Fengxian is a stinking piece of shit and a great plague god. He doesn't want to mess with anything or anyone related to her.

It’s not that I can’t afford to offend, it’s that I don’t want to.

"As long as I am here, how can the water monster cause harm to the world?" Pu Shan had a bad look on his face and a slightly cold tone.

"With the nun here, I am of course relieved, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. If an unpredictable accident happens and a water monster escapes or gets lost and wanders to the territory of Western Shu, it would be a huge disaster that would alarm the Emperor of Heaven!" Tian Peng said.

In any dynasty, any major accident resulting in many deaths would inevitably alarm the "high-ranking officials of the court."

Once the senior leaders are alarmed, a small matter that does not weigh a few pounds can be turned into a heavy penalty of a thousand pounds.

"If a water monster causes trouble, Lingshan and I will take the responsibility and will not implicate the Marshal." Pushan said.

Hearing the word "Lingshan", Tianpeng hesitated again.

He refused Pushan's offer to recruit water monsters from the Milky Way because he didn't want to cause trouble.

But if I refuse Pushan, I will get into big trouble, which will be counterproductive and not worth the loss.

At this time, a general in silver armor and blue robe stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Master Marshal, I have a plan that may help resolve this dilemma."

Tian Peng frowned for a moment, then quickly relaxed his brows and said, "Since Cai Gongcao has a plan, tell us about it."

Gongcao Shendao said: "Select a number of gods to follow Master Pushan into the vortex of the Tianhe River. Do not participate in the battles in the mortal world, but just keep an eye on those water monsters."

Pushan looked at him in surprise, lightly shook his wide sleeves with his right arm, covering his right hand with the sleeves, and counted quickly with his fingers.

A thoughtful look appeared on her face.

"What the general said is very accurate! Commanding the water monsters of the Tianhe River is the 'Ancient Alliance' that my ancient dragon clan reached with the water creatures under the witness of 'God'.

Not even the Emperor of Heaven can stop me from fulfilling my ancient oath.

But the Marshal does have the responsibility to protect the Milky Way and cannot let the river monster leave easily.

Now, with the general's gods supervising, the water monster will definitely not leave the vortex."

Tian Peng was silent for a moment, then said quietly, "Cai Quan, you are the officer on duty, and you are the most suitable person to monitor the movements of the water monsters. It was you who proposed this suggestion, so this matter can only be taken care of by you. You should take care of yourself!"

The officer on duty pursed his lips, nodded and promised: "I will definitely fulfill my mission and bring back all the living water monsters."

Tianpeng waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."

"Godmother, it seems like three days have passed, right?" asked Black Kong.

"It's not three days, it's two days and four hours, less than two and a half days." Xiaoyu said.

The demon grandchildren said happily: "Grandma, are we safe now? Can we stop and rest for a while?"

"It's been two and a half days. How far have we swum?"

“My grandmother is the military leader herself, and the Black Fish Dragon can now use the power of water.

The speed is so fast, thousands of miles a day! In two days, maybe ten thousand miles?
Alas, this abyss is too deep. After swimming for thousands of miles, the current around me seems to have not changed much. "

"Whether the environment has changed or not, we are safe anyway."

"Yes, Pushan didn't catch up after all. We can go up, into the underground river, and return to the ground!"

Xiao Yu frowned slightly and said, "Something is wrong. It seems we didn't swim too far."

"We have been swimming all the time. Not to mention ten thousand miles in two days, we have at least swam five thousand miles, right? Five thousand miles is a long way." said Black King Kong.

Xiao Yu said, "In two days, we swam nearly ten thousand miles, but our actual movement distance seemed to be less than a thousand miles, because we were always circling. We were swimming around a huge whirlpool and heading deeper into it."

Black Kong asked in confusion: "We are swimming forward, why are we going in circles?"

Xiao Yu asked back: "Where is ahead?"

Black King Kong said, "The source of the torrent is ahead. If we go upstream, aren't we heading towards the source?"

Xiao Yu said: “You are all water monsters, you must have seen the big whirlpool.

Throw an ant into a whirlpool and let it drift with the current. Where will it eventually reach the source?

"The center of the vortex. The hole at the bottom of the vortex."

An expression of realization and fear gradually appeared on Black King Kong's face.

"Oh my god, we have become little ants in a big whirlpool! We have been walking against the current of the whirlpool.

The whirlpool rapids are circles within circles, big circles within small circles. After one circle, we almost return to the starting point in the next circle. That's not right. After the ant turns around in the big whirlpool, it is very close to its original position. How many circles have we gone around? Why can't we see the rapids before? "

"It's just that you didn't 'see' (feel) it." Xiaoyu sighed.

As the ant circles around the vortex, it gets closer and closer to the bottom of the vortex, but it feels as if its head is always above the water.

In its perception, it has been floating on a two-dimensional plane.

But in fact, the "water surface" where it is located has a slope and is not a two-dimensional structure.

Their current situation is very similar to that of "ants in a vortex".

The ant in the vortex goes around in a circle, and the "height" of the third dimension decreases by one level.

They turned around in the whirlpool and their "depth" decreased by one level. Different "depths" are almost equivalent to different dimensions.

It is the dimension of Pangu's world, not the "other dimension" of the previous life.

The most famous "Thirty-three Heavens" in Pangu World has thirty-three dimensions in one space.

Xiaoyu knew that the "abyss rapids" here were called "Tianhe vortex", and that the "opposite" of the vortex was Tianhe. She would probably explain to her children and grandchildren: We turn around once, which is equivalent to climbing up a layer of "sky". Turn thirty-three times, enter the center of the vortex, and pass through it, and we will reach the "border" Tianhe of Tianwaitian.
