The prehistoric infrastructure maniac

Chapter 201 The Exposure of the Source
After Beishan became the Dao Ancestor and awakened the memories of the Northern Xiu World God, time quietly passed, and millions of years went by in the blink of an eye.
Inside the Eight Treasures Cloud Light Cave on Nine Cauldrons Iron Fork Mountain, Shi Moxiao, who was personally brewing tea, looked at Nuwa and Fuxi and said, "It's rare! The two of you actually came here together."

"Shi Mo, Fu Xi and I have come to see you because we have something extremely important to tell you," Nuwa said solemnly.

Seeing their serious expressions, Shi Mo, after pouring the tea and setting down the teacup, couldn't help but ask with a flicker in his eyes, "What is it?"

“When Yuan visited me before, I discovered that he had secretly used his mental power to invade my body. Fortunately, under your guidance, my mental power has now reached the Dominator Realm, and I have become an Ancestral God, which is why I was able to sense Yuan's silent attack.”

Fuxi said solemnly, "I think there's something very wrong with Yuan. His mastery of mental power far exceeds my imagination. I suspect that his mental power has reached the fifth level."

"As expected! It seems I guessed right, Yuan may indeed have been possessed by the Chaos Alien Race," Shi Mo frowned upon hearing this.

"What? Possession?" Nuwa and Fuxi's expressions changed upon hearing this.

Shi Mo nodded slightly: "That's right! Bei Shan told me before that Yuan used mental energy to secretly attack him."

"What did you say? Yuan even attacked Beishan?" Fuxi was shocked and angry upon hearing this, and then couldn't help but say, "That's not right! Yuan's mental power techniques are very powerful. If I hadn't broken through to become an Ancestral God and had even stronger mental power, I might not have even noticed. How did Beishan detect it?"

Nuwa looked at Shi Mo solemnly and asked, "Are you sure that Yuan has been possessed?"

“It’s pretty close,” Shi Mo nodded. “The key now is that we don’t know exactly how many powerful beings Yuan has attacked. I suspect that he can use his mental power to enslave and control powerful beings, making them lose their sense of self and become his loyal servants.”

"Mind control?" Fuxi's expression changed.

Nuwa frowned as well: "So, what do you plan to do?"

“Find an opportunity to directly attack the source; that should be able to probe it,” Shi Mo said.

“To take action in the Pangu World would be too drastic and difficult to explain,” Nuwa shook her head.

“Then let’s make our move in the chaos,” Shi Mo said directly. “If he doesn’t go into the chaos in a short time, we’ll find a way to lure him there.”

"I'll make the arrangements!" Fuxi said in a deep voice, his brows furrowed.

Years later, in the midst of chaos, there was a medicinal field, the very place where Shennong cultivated various rare medicinal herbs.

The red-nosed old man, Yuan Laoren, flew out from the hazy, chaotic mist and approached the medicinal field. He was taken aback when he saw Shennong, who was dressed in black robes like an old farmer, with Nuwa, Fuxi, and Shi Mo beside him.

"Shennong, you called me here because you have something to say. Could it be related to Nuwa, Shi Mo, and Fuxi?" Yuan Laoren was about to fly over when Shi Mo suddenly extended his arm and enlarged his hand, striking towards Yuan Laoren.

Sensing the terrifying power contained in that palm strike, Old Man Yuan's expression changed.

Thud. The next moment, accompanied by a deep thud, the lotus platform that appeared beneath Old Man Yuan's feet and the surrounding black lotus petals trembled violently. Standing on the lotus platform, Old Man Yuan's face twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but say in a deep voice, "You want to kill me? Why?"

“We have both sworn an oath not to kill each other, so I naturally cannot break it. I didn’t intend to kill you; I just wanted to suppress you,” Shi Mo said coldly.

"Unexpectedly, that life oath gave you a loophole, providing you with an opportunity to plot against other powerful beings," Nuwa said coldly.

"Sneak attack on other powerful figures? What do you mean by that, Your Majesty? I don't quite understand," Old Man Yuan frowned.

Seeing his pretentious act, Fuxi couldn't help but get angry and said, "You attacked me in secret, did you think I wouldn't notice? Yuan, when did you become such a powerful mental cultivator? You've really kept it well hidden!"

"This protective Black Lotus Secret Technique is not a method of our Three Realms. Even now, do you still want to play dumb and fool us?" Shi Mo's voice was somewhat deep: "Do you dare to swear an oath of your life that you have never plotted against the great beings of the Pangu World?"

The old man was silent for a moment, then laughed: "Hehe. I didn't expect you to actually find out. Fuxi, I really underestimated you. You've cultivated back to the status of an Ancestral God, haven't you?"

"Brother Yuan, are you really a member of the Chaos Alien Clan?" Shennong was still somewhat incredulous.

"So what if it is?" Old Man Yuan sneered: "Nuwa is right, the oath we made before did have loopholes. Even if I am a Chaos Alien, you cannot kill me, because it was the oath we made, not the Origin."

"I thought you would be as arrogant as Luo Hou. I thought even if the few of us joined forces, we couldn't do anything to you!" Upon hearing Shi Mo's words, Old Man Yuan's lips twitched.

Then Shi Mo said coldly, "Under the constraints of my life oath, I cannot kill you, but once I suppress you, I have plenty of ways to make you wish you were dead."

Before he finished speaking, Shi Mo reached out and slapped at Old Man Yuan again.

With a series of loud bangs, the powerful Old Man of Origin unleashed a peak Ancestral God combat power far exceeding that of Zhu Rong and the others, causing Shi Mo's hands to tremble slightly and stop.

But then, a terrifying power, like an invisible rope binding him, pressed down like the power of a vast world, freezing the old man's movements.
"Impossible... This is the Boundary-Stabilizing Pearl? How could a Chaos Treasure be so powerful?" Old Man Yuan exclaimed in surprise and anger.

Even with his body surging with divine power, he couldn't break free from Shi Mo's grasp and was directly grabbed by Shi Mo.

"You want to suppress and imprison me? Dream on! If I die, others will accompany me in death!" The old man roared madly, not giving Shi Mo a chance to suppress him. The next moment, his soul aura dissipated.

"Dead? He committed suicide?" Fuxi frowned upon seeing this. "Buried alive? What does that mean? Could it be that he..."

“Xuanming is dead, as are a true god of the Dragon Clan and dozens of celestial gods and immortals, all of whom died silently almost simultaneously.” Fuxi’s expression changed as he spoke, and he subconsciously looked at Nuwa and Shi Mo.

"Mind control? It can actually directly control the life and death of celestial gods, immortals, and even true gods and Dao ancestors?" Nuwa's expression turned somewhat grim.

Shennong was also still shaken: "It's a good thing he's dead, otherwise... I really can't believe how much harm he could have caused over time."

"Don't be careless. It's still hard to say whether he has a clone or a reincarnation," Shi Mo said solemnly after putting away Yuan's divine relics.

As for the weak clone created by the Old Man of Origin, since he caused the two powerful beings controlled by his mental power to die directly, the weak clone must have died from the backlash of the life oath just like the original.

“Even if he reincarnates, it’s hard to say whether he can awaken his memories!” Fuxi said. Shi Mo looked at him speechlessly: “What if he didn’t block out his own memories?”

Fuxi, who was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but change his expression when he realized what was happening.

Nuwa frowned and said, "We must be careful! Keep a close eye on things, be vigilant at all times, and secretly investigate to see if there is any possibility that it might be a powerful being who is the reincarnation of the Old Man of Origin."

“This is not easy to investigate!” Shennong frowned and said, “If there really is an incarnation of the Old Man of Origin, he will definitely hide himself even more deeply in the future.”

Shi Mo frowned and worried: "Did Old Man Yuan really only control Xuanming and that Dragon Clan True God? Most likely, he was setting up a deception, using those dozens of Heavenly Gods and True Immortals to mislead us, making us think that it was difficult for him to control powerful beings."

"However, the number of powerful beings he truly controls is definitely not just two." Thinking of this, Shi Mo couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless.

"Bound by his life oath, although he can't directly kill powerful beings, he can sacrifice those he controls and make them kill. It seems there will be more trouble in the future."

The simultaneous fall of two powerful beings and dozens of celestial gods and immortals caused an unimaginable uproar.

Before the powerful beings of the Pangu world made life-bound vows, the fall of a powerful being was a very significant event.

Even now, with the constraints of their life oaths, powerful beings are still dying, which has shocked them all even more.

If it wasn't the powerful beings of the Pangu world killing each other, then it must have been the Chaos alien races that took action!

The matter could not be concealed, so Shi Mo and Nuwa summoned a group of powerful beings from the Pangu world and revealed to them that the Old Man of Origin had been possessed by an alien race and that his mental power was controlling other powerful beings and celestial immortals.

As expected, the powerful beings were all somewhat shocked and in uproar. The ability to control powerful beings with mental power was simply incredible.

Moreover, although the old man Yuan is dead, no one knows whether he has a clone or reincarnation.

Thinking of this, the powerful beings couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.

However, this is precisely the purpose of Shi Mo's public announcement: to raise awareness among the public.

Furthermore, in order to deal with the possibility that the reincarnation of the Old Man of Origin might continue to secretly control other powerful beings and celestial immortals, Shi Mo directly taught the group of powerful beings the Heart-Locking Soul Secret Technique provided by the Northern Xiu World God, which can be used to resist attacks from the heart force.

At the same time, Shi Mo also revealed the basic cultivation method for beginners in mental power, hoping to guide more powerful beings and even gods and immortals to achieve something in the path of mental power.

After all, to perform the Mind Power Soul Locking Secret Technique, one must first master the cultivation of Mind Power and possess Mind Power.

For a long time afterward, the Pangu world became very peaceful, and the powerful beings also became much more low-key.

Because of the emergence of many powerful beings, including countless gods and immortals, the human race gradually became the strongest race in the Pangu world, and also the most united and powerful force.

The renowned figures of later generations, such as Kuafu, Xingtian, and Houyi, were all born and grew up during the most prosperous and powerful period of humankind.
There are also Erlang Shen, Nezha, and Sun Wukong, and before they knew it, the second and third generation disciples of Taoism and Buddhism had all become true gods and Taoist ancestors.

With the addition of the Golden Crow Demon Emperor and the Seven Great Saints of the Demon Race, this period seemed to have reached the peak of the development of the Pangu World. Both the human and demon races enjoyed great fortune and produced a great number of talented individuals.

On the contrary, the innate gods and demons, due to their slow reproduction and birth, were completely overshadowed by the human and demon races. Apart from the old-fashioned Chaos Gods and Demons and the Innate Gods and Demons who had long been cultivating in seclusion, there were hardly any powerful and famous gods and demons that appeared later.

After a long period of reproduction, with the leader of the ten golden crows born on the sun star becoming a true god and ancestor, calling himself the Demon Emperor, and integrating the demon race, the originally loose demon race suddenly became a major force second only to the human race.

There are too many demons; it can be said that apart from gods, demons, and humans, everyone else is a demon.

With the support of some powerful beings who were born from divine beasts, the ambitious Golden Crow Demon Emperor began to lead the demon race in a struggle against the human race, aiming to replace the human race as the number one race in the prehistoric world.

The struggle wasn't particularly intense at first, after all, the human race was created by the goddess Nuwa, possessing a profound foundation, and many powerful beings tacitly supported the human race's current status in the Pangu world.

Therefore, the struggle between the demon race and the human race lasted for a long time, with both sides fighting time and time again, and even resorting to various schemes and tricks.
Kuafu and Houyi grew up through numerous battles and became true gods, truly the two heroes of the human race.

In comparison, although Xing Tian was also a great general of the human race, his prowess was not as great as that of Kuafu and Hou Yi.

Later, due to some conflicts, Xing Tian, ​​in a fit of rage, attacked the Heavenly Court, even killing the Heavenly Emperor. He himself was also beheaded, but at the critical moment, he broke through and became a true god. Only then did Xing Tian's fame truly resound throughout the entire Pangu World.

Of course, that's all in hindsight. When the struggle between the demon race and the human race intensified, Sun Wukong and the other seven great demons were still minor figures at the level of gods!
In terms of inherent strength, the demon race was ultimately inferior to the human race. After a crushing defeat, the enraged Golden Crow Demon Emperor, along with his nine brothers, transformed into their true forms and, using their escape techniques and the Golden Rainbow of the Sun, relentlessly attacked the human race, killing countless powerful beings and innocent souls, committing boundless carnage. This event shook the entire Pangu World and angered numerous powerful beings.
However, the speed of the golden rainbow was too fast, and even the powerful beings could not catch up with it.

Just when the entire Pangu world was in chaos because of the Ten Golden Crows, Hou Yi made his move, using his terrifying archery skills to shoot down one Golden Crow after another.
Even the Golden Crow Demon King was struck by Hou Yi's terrifyingly fast arrow.

At the critical moment, Shi Mo made his move. His terrifying palm covered the sky and the sun, causing space to freeze. He directly grabbed and suppressed the Golden Crow Demon Emperor.

The goddess Nuwa intervened and saved the last golden crow, ending the chaos.

At Jiuding Iron Fork Mountain, facing the Goddess Nuwa who rushed over after ending the chaos, Shi Mo couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "I've confirmed it. The Golden Crow Demon Emperor is under the control of mental power, and the Old Man of Source is still alive. This battle between the demon race and the human race should have been caused by him."

"Damn it! This Old Man Yuan is indeed a great hidden danger," Nuwa said, somewhat alarmed and angry.

Shi Mo said, "Right now, he's nothing more than a rat hiding in the shadows. His mental strength and methods are no match for the truly top-tier experts in our Pangu World. Moreover, the more trouble he causes, the easier it will be for us to pinpoint his identity."

"Hmm, the Golden Crow Demon Emperor is very arrogant, and there aren't many powerful beings who have interacted with him. The one who can control him with their mental power must have had many encounters with him. Have you already guessed who it is?" Nuwa nodded and asked.

Shi Mo nodded slightly: "More or less! I've already sent Beishan over to confirm."
