The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 516 I'm trying my best to mend the world, and you're taking this opportunity to attack me? !

Yun Kun rides the wind and waves and moves forward with all his might.

Oh... there are only waves, no wind. It lurks in the sea 100 meters deep, shapes itself into the shape of a yellowfin tuna, and swooshes forward.

While running, he communicated with Shen Le:
[I think the water below is a bit hot! ]

"Really? How hot is it?"

[It's not that hot... but it seems to be getting hotter as we go forward. Is there a volcano erupting ahead? ]

Shen Le was silent for a moment. He only regretted that he did not bring the experts who had accompanied Yun Kun on the mission and all the equipment on board this time.

If he had brought all of these, the experts would be able to tinker with the instruments and probably figure out what was going on ahead. But now, he could only use his face, no, his mental power to probe the bushes...

"...Sink a little lower first, as close to the seabed as possible. I'll feel the situation on the seabed."

He discussed this with Yun Kun in a low voice. Yun Kun slowly slowed down, changed his body shape, shortened and widened himself, turned into a flounder, calmly lay on the seabed, and swam slowly forward.

Shen Le, on the other hand, exerted his mental power and continued to move forward along the seabed to detect the situation.

Most of the forces touched by the spiritual force were sea water and earth. However, the further forward, the more unstable, explosive, and eager forces kept rolling:

That was fire, it was the underground fire that emerged from the depths of the earth, wanting to tear everything apart and burn everything.

It rolled and cried out, trying to break free from the barriers and gain freedom, but the earth and the sea were giving way to it...

"It seems like the submarine volcano is really going to explode." Shen Le murmured. This is not surprising. The Ryukyu Islands are an archipelago that was raised due to the compression of the earth's crust. There are many volcanoes in it.
The largest island, Sumitori Island, is an active volcano. The sulfur produced there has been used for tribute trade since the Ryukyu Kingdom era.
There are also reports of volcanic eruptions on several other islands, including the seabed. Just a few years ago, one of the islands had a violent eruption.

However, this time, Shen Le felt something was different. Under the rumbling underground fire that was about to erupt violently at any time, it seemed that there was something, something very important and special!
There are deep shadows, roaming deep beneath the earth, beneath the volcanoes.

Be ready to detonate this land at any time, be ready to use magma and flames as pioneers to cover your own rush out!
"Strange, what on earth is this..."

Shen Le murmured. He had a hunch that this thing was very bad, and if it rushed out, it would cause a disaster!
"Yun Kun, let's work harder! Let's get over there quickly! Can you feel it? The wind is the strongest, the flames are the fiercest, and it's about to burst out!"

He patted the side of the boat and whispered instructions. The wooden boat let out a long cry, like the cry of a whale.

Then, its shape began to change again, turning into a small boat, and it jumped hard along the water veins!
be quick!

Shen Le said, hurry up!!!
A violent, wild, hair-raising spiritual wind swept over. Yun Kun jumped, twisted left and right, and shouted:

【Hey! 】

【Hey! 】

[Hey!!!]

what happened?
Shen Le was surprised for a moment. He expanded his mental power and immediately understood what was going on:

The surrounding fish, shells, shrimps and crabs crawling on the seabed, and even algae such as kelp, are swimming upwards desperately against the spiritual wind.

As it swims, it absorbs energy and changes its shape. If it can handle it, it will keep hunting. If it can't handle it, it will explode with a bang and become food for the creatures around it...

Continuously moving backwards and forwards, Yun Kun sneaked along the water veins, almost dashing left and right among the fish, desperately squeezing out a path.

While squeezing, they also have to resist the attacks of predators and those who were squeezed away. They are very busy!
"Do you need help?"

【Need not! 】

Yun Kun made a creaking sound, which sounded like he was gritting his teeth, and also like he was moving every part of his body, every board and pillar.

It swung its bow, swayed its stern, and even the mast was bent down, thrown out of the side of the ship, lashing left and right, struggling to make its way.

Overall, he seems to have a very strong sense of self-esteem and will not "ask for tactical guidance" unless it is absolutely necessary.

Shen Le did not disturb it, and spread out his mental power to observe the surroundings. As he got closer, he could see more clearly:
A barrier of light and brightness, from the highest point above the sky, descended all the way down, into the deep sea, into the bottom of the sea.

Strangely enough, this barrier does not prohibit mortals from entering or leaving. Mortals, ordinary monsters, and practitioners can all pass through it without hindrance, traveling from the Western Pacific to the Eastern Pacific.

However, it fell here, subtly dividing the world into two sides. Inside the barrier was the paradise of mortals, and outside the barrier was a world where powerful monsters could hunt freely.

And now, this barrier suddenly had a big hole. Shen Le narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the place where the extraordinary world and reality overlapped, subtly influencing each other.

When the barrier is broken, the power of reality can be exerted on this spiritually woven barrier;

And the spiritual impact began to interfere with reality more violently, causing the seabed to crack, causing the ground fire to erupt, and further tearing the barrier...

Need to make up for it quickly!
If I don't fix it, once this barrier is torn to a certain extent, I won't be able to handle it!

Shen Le said "Hey", holding the copper piece in his hand, and tried his best to enter a deep state of concentration. He stretched his mental power to the limit and touched the cracks around the barrier:
Thread the needle!

Thread the needle!

In the past, this thing was repaired by threading a needle, and it should be repaired by the same method now!
He quickly "touched" the hole. The bad news was that this crack was much bigger than any other one he had repaired before, several times bigger.
The good news is that he is no longer the Shen Le of the past! He is much stronger than he used to be!
repair!
Make up for it quickly!

Shen Le exerted his mental power, pulled the broken thread from the edge of the breach in the barrier, and pulled it out bit by bit.

As he pulled, he called upon the surrounding heaven and earth to join in the repair:

Seawater, contribute water spirit and power! Don't say you can't do it, such a large sea must have enough water spirit!

The earth, the seabed, contribute the spiritual energy and power of the earth! Shen Le carefully deployed his spiritual power, trying not to draw from the shallow seabed, not from the nearest crack, but from the distant islands:
The power of this island is strong enough!
Definitely enough!

Give me your power - you don't want a massive influx of wild spiritual power, causing chaos in heaven and earth and harming your balance and circulation, right?

The roiling magma contributes the spiritual energy and power of the fire element! Yes, that's you! If the power is drained, the underwater volcano will not erupt or burst, right?

In the Dantian, the golden ball spun rapidly. For the first time, Shen Le felt how weak he was facing this world and how little power he had:
We must use our own strength to pry the heaven and earth, to pry this abundant power. Shen Le felt like a child who had just learned to walk, waving a straw to pry the huge rock like a mountain:

so tired……

Don’t be greedy…

Absorb a little less power at a time, just replenish a little, just replenish one line... After replenishing one line, replenish the next one, and never be greedy!

He gritted his teeth and worked hard. One, two, ten, a hundred.

She darned the entire edge of the hole, one circle at a time, and one circle at a time... After darning it countless times, she suddenly started to curse:

"I go!!!"

The large piece that had just been woven suddenly collapsed!

Something - something, rushed in from the opposite side, not only tearing apart a large piece he had just mended, but also tearing a very long strip of the original part!
【do you need my help? 】

Yun Kun was busy moving forward, busy leading everyone closer to the crack, using all his strength. The small oil lamp was still empty, and he was eager to try:
[That thing, do you want me to hit it? Just chop it to death, chop it to a crisp, and it won't bother you anymore! ]

"...No need." Shen Le stared at the broken hole and tried to adjust his breathing.

The small oil lamp is very powerful, but this is underwater, so its attack power will be greatly reduced.

It’s not that it can’t be used, but it should be used at the most critical moment, in the most fatal place!
"Wait a minute! Let me try to hit it first... I'll try to give it a hard blow first!"

The barrier fluctuated rapidly, bulging here and concaving there.

The shape of each bulge and depression is different, as if there are more than one monsters fighting behind, competing for the chance to rush in.

Shen Le temporarily stopped repairing the barrier and silently mobilized a few talismans, ready to go:

coming!
Something is coming!

There was a huge shadow, rushing towards us desperately from behind the barrier!
Shen Le looked at it intently. The shadow was getting closer and closer, and clearer and clearer. Finally, with a pop, it seemed to break through something and emerged completely.

It’s still far away and can’t be seen clearly with the naked eye, but with the help of mental power, it looks like... a fish?

A large golden-red fish with a slender body, a pair of wings - not fish fins, but bird wings - and two sharp claws suddenly rushed out!

"You're a fish... Then I won't give you water!"

Shen Le murmured. His mental power suddenly activated, and an exquisite talisman lit up in the void, pushing away a large area of seawater:

Previously in the secret realm of the Golden Triangle, he could push away sea water of thirty to fifty feet in radius, but this time the diameter was directly doubled.

As soon as the big fish rushed out, it fell into the void. It flapped its wings in confusion, looked left and right, and shouted:
The seawater collapsed. The big fish seemed to have locked onto the source of the water-controlling power, and sank down, rushing straight over! "Come on! I've been waiting for you!"

Shen Le tried his best to raise the copper sheet. It flew forward, rapidly expanding as it flew, revealing the shape of a whole copper tripod with another small half piece.

The bronze tripod turned slightly, and a nipple pattern on it quietly lit up——

An extremely human expression of panic appeared on the face of the big fish!
It flapped its wings, curled up its body, and tried its best to retreat. However, the bronze tripod had already emitted thousands of rays of light, which directly wrapped around it and pulled it inward.

The big fish spun, rolled, jumped, flapped its wings, and grabbed back and forth with its claws, trying to tear apart the bronze tripod, or the light that was pulling it.

But it was of no use. Shen Le just watched it getting smaller and smaller, until it disappeared into the nipple lines.

Then, the bronze tripod rotated, retracted, turned back into a copper sheet, fell into his hand, trembled slightly, and exhaled a stream of heat into his palm. The overall feeling was like a burp...

Shen Le: “…”

So you're very satisfied with the meal and you want to give me a share?

No matter what, this heat flow is a real force. Shen Le took advantage of the temporary calm on the other side to quickly activate this force, strengthen his mental strength, and quickly repair the barrier.

While I was patching it up, it collapsed again...

Shen Le concentrated again and sensed it carefully. He sensed the entire void after it was damaged, the power left by the barrier, and the traces left by the barrier over the years.

After sensing for a long time, there was another loud curse:
"I go!!!"

This barrier between heaven and earth is not made up of horizontal and vertical lines that you can just pull over and over. It has patterns!
It is uneven, has several layers of three-dimensional, intertwined patterns, and has various talisman-shaped patterns!
There are no patterns, no, no talismans, it is impossible to block the impact force from the outside, there is no way to form a node here to keep the huge impact from the outside out!

"But... tell me, what kind of pattern is this!!!"

When restoring cultural relics, there must always be a basis and a reference. When restoring fabrics, one must strive to restore other parts of the fabric, use them as a reference, and mend the missing pattern.

If there is no pattern for other parts, or other parts are missing and cannot be seen clearly, refer to the same type of fabric to simulate and supplement;
If there is no similar fabric, and this piece has been rotten to the point of having no shape, then, then...

I won’t make up for it!

Reinforce it and put it here!
Can Shen Le find the rest of it?

Sorry, no. This sky and earth barrier is too big. If he runs away now and "feels" along the sky and earth barrier to find a reference pattern, it is estimated that when he comes back, this side will have exploded;

Could Shen Le just not make up for it?
Sorry, that's not possible. Not to mention that the copper sheet was jumping and vibrating, and it was constantly repairing itself, even if the copper sheet didn't urge it...

May I ask, what is he doing here?
"Forget it, let's try it out." Shen Le sighed and began to work hard. First, straighten the original broken lines horizontally and vertically, and then quickly pull them together:
Embroidery also requires a foundation!
Without a foundation, what can you embroider on?

While mending the hole, he tried to feel the spiritual charm of heaven and earth and the changes of the five elements nearby. Well, the ground fire kept bubbling, which meant that the power of the sea water was insufficient and could not quickly take away the heat.

Then add a water-control talisman to speed up the flow here, let it flow quickly through the earth fire crack, and then leave quickly!

The sea was turbulent. The surrounding schools of fish seemed to be greatly disturbed. Some rushed upwards desperately, while others turned back and fled. In an instant, they were huddled together.
The cold water descends, sweeps over the seafloor, and rushes toward the nearby islands;

The hot water rises, carrying mud and algae from the seabed, rushes to the surface, and then flows back into the deep Pacific Ocean.

I feel that this will become a good fishing ground in the future, with many fish coming here to eat and many fishing boats coming here to fish!

Well, the barrier seems to be a little more stable, but it’s not enough, not enough!

The water flow is not strong enough, and the flow rate is not fast enough, so it needs to be strengthened. Then add a fire control talisman to suck the underground fire out from under the seabed -

Since ancient times, it is better to open up than to block. It is better to have a stable channel than to put a lid on it.

If a dormant volcano erupts once a year, no one will be afraid. But if it doesn't erupt for eight hundred years or a thousand years, and then it erupts into a big one, that would be fatal!
The flames rose. The talisman given by the copper sheet condensed into bright patterns on the barrier between heaven and earth. Well, the barrier was a little more stable, but it was still a little short of being broken by the impact from behind...

The power of the earth is the most stable! If the earth's power is insufficient, it cannot form a stable channel for the underground fire, and it will crack here and collapse there!

Then add a talisman to control the earth and let it absorb the earth's spiritual energy on its own!
The seabed beneath my feet was soft and rolling. The soil on the seabed seemed to be pushed by something, or kneaded by a pair of hands, and it was moving forward rapidly.

Round after round, in the third round, the crater bulged and spread out, forming a whole bright belt of fire, which was constrained into a crater by the power of the earth.

It erupts on top and flows smoothly on the bottom without any obstruction. Very good, perfect!

Shen Le breathed a sigh of relief. The three talismans gathered at the breach in the barrier, and the impulsive force behind them was much smaller, and it felt like they were about to break through the breach.

However, Shen Le always felt that there was still a little more to go, a little more to go...

Fire, earth, and water, three elements, cannot form a five-element cycle and lack self-sustaining power. However, the metal element is fine, as we can get some from the volcano, but what about the wood element?
Even if I absorb all the sea water, all the kelp, seaweed and plankton on the seabed, I don't think it will be enough to fill this hole!
It had to be filled even if it couldn't be filled. Shen Le gritted his teeth and used his mental strength. While going deeper into the volcano to search for gold ores as much as possible, he searched his brains for the talisman:

No copper pieces were given!
The copper piece never gave him the talisman to control metal!
Hey, can you give me one soon? It's okay to cram at the last minute! First of all, I don't want it myself, I just want to complete your task, right? !

Even if we take a step back, I have repaired the pen holder and the clay sculptures, which is a big task, so you should give me some reward!

I specified that the reward is the Gold Talisman, is that not okay?!

He tried to communicate with the copper piece. The copper piece seemed to be full and was resting lazily, not paying attention to him. Shen Le was secretly anxious, but he could only try his best to collect energy and build up the foundation...

【Be careful! 】

Suddenly, Yun Kun, Qing Deng, and several other little guys around him reminded him at the same time. Shen Le was startled, and without thinking, he withdrew his mental power and stabilized himself;
The next moment, the water flowed, and Yun Kun took him and quickly sneaked back two miles. Shen Le felt the sky shaking, the water rumbling, and a huge explosion, lighting a flame in the water!
【Depth charge! 】

Yun Kun gnashed his teeth and cursed:
[It’s this bastard again! It was the same bastard last time! It’s the same bastard! Bomb me with a depth charge!!!]

Shen Le also got angry. Hey, man, I'm trying my best to mend the world, and you guys are taking this opportunity to hit me? !

[Qingdeng, can you see who is attacking? ]

He asked coldly. The little oil lamp immediately jumped up, turned around the boat, and said dejectedly:

[Not for now. The device that converted radio waves into sound waves was taken away by them last time... I need to get closer... get closer to know! ]

【I'll take you closer! 】

Yun Kun said proudly. Without waiting for Shen Le to answer, it leaped up with all its might, stirred up the water, and rushed upwards quickly.

Shen Le only felt his whole body sinking, and after several rolls, he rose to the center of the sea. Just as his mental power extended a little, he had already touched a huge object above his head:

[We’ve arrived! We’ve arrived!]

Qingdeng shouted. That huge object, probably a boat, was only about ten meters away from them at most. There was a fish swimming underneath, and even if they could see it, they couldn't hit it.

The silver ball of light flickered on and off, and disappeared in an instant. After a moment, it came back angrily:

[It's the Japanese! It's a pirate ship! There's a battleship, a big black fish, and a research ship on it! The depth charge was dropped by the battleship!
——I listened for a while, they detected abnormal spiritual power fluctuations here, and came to check it out in detail! They thought it might be an enemy, so they dropped a bomb to blow it up! 】

Oh, Qingdeng has made great progress. He can now understand foreigners’ conversations. His Japanese listening ability is better than mine.

Shen Le secretly gave the small oil lamp a thumbs up and patted it:

"Then can you get rid of the big black fish? Cut off the power supply and we can drag it down in one go!"

[Can't we take down the battleship? The battleship is the one that dropped the bomb! ]

"Well, big black fish are more expensive. They would feel bad if they broke it, and they don't know how it was broken." Shen Le comforted them:
"If it's not enough, drag the battleship down to fill the hole!"

What is lacking is the power of metal!

A huge black fish weighing several thousand tons, the gold power inside it might, perhaps, possibly, be enough to condense a talisman, right?
[No problem! Watch me! ]

The small oil lamp suddenly lit up. Shen Le felt a vast expanse of white light in his spiritual power, which almost blinded him.

The next moment, the water surged into the Big Black Fish's hull. Without Yun Kun's intervention, the Big Black Fish was already swaying and sinking.

Yun Kun rolled up the seawater, dragging it towards the direction of the underwater volcanic eruption, and as it surged, it shouted happily:
[Yohoo~~~Done! Fix the pot! Fix the pot! Shen Le, hurry up! Fix it, drag another one!]

The big black fish sank straight into the crater. The power of magma could not burn the steel; however, the copper sheet shook slightly, and dots of white light flew out from the hull and rushed towards the barrier between heaven and earth:

That is, the purest gold force in the steel hull was purified and used as the cornerstone for repairs!
"Thank you, Mr. Copper Piece! Thank you, Mr. Copper Piece!" Shen Le quickly flattered him.

It was great that the copper sheet boss was willing to help him extract the raw materials and give him the gold talisman!

So, we have to get it done quickly - then, where will the power of the Wood Element be drawn from?
