Food gives me an entry, I will be invincible if I stay alive

Chapter 357 Dawn breaks, and the azure waves illuminate the mountains and rivers.
On the banks of the canal, Ashi stared in disbelief for a moment.

Why was it stunned?
The group of little yellow-robed monsters that came here, in terms of appearance, actually bore a slight resemblance to it.

However, these little yellow-clad demons were all much bigger than Ashi.

Even though Ashi's cultivation level has increased, he is now only five inches tall and less than a foot long, truly a tiny little demon.

As for the group of yellow-clad demons, Ashi looked closely and finally managed to distinguish them.

These guys were actually a pack of weasels!

Hey, most of the monsters that have come to the banks of the canal at this moment are actually natural enemies of the little mouse.

Truly despicable, hateful, terrifying, and horrifying.

While casting his spell, Ashi would occasionally steal glances around, wishing he could tremble with fear and run back to Chen Xu's side.

But it wasn't stupid; in the brief moment it was casting the spell to plant the tree, it overheard the fox demons talking:
"The South-to-North Water Diversion Project is truly a monumental undertaking. If it can be successfully completed, and the canal water can stop receding after the rains, then the severe drought in the northern frontier can truly be resolved."

"That one is said to be a prodigy of the human race, and he truly is extraordinary. Her Majesty's urging us to come down the mountain and befriend him shows that she was right."

"Chirp, Your Majesty, what is wrong? But you said something wrong. This person is no longer a human prodigy... Prodigy? That refers to the younger generation, the juniors."

After today, who in this world will have the nerve to treat him as a junior?

In my opinion, this Mr. Chen could even be a Celestial Master or a National Preceptor…

After listening for a while, the mouse gradually understood what a great thing Chen Xu had accomplished.

An overwhelming emotion welled up within it, causing it to involuntarily straighten its chest.

Even though the weasels that came later terrified and disgusted it, the thought that these creatures were there to help Chen Xu immediately straightened its back.

The mouse has never been so spirited as it is now.

The most amazing thing is that as time went on, many powerful and lesser demons came to curry favor with it.

The demons weren't blind; they knew that Ashi was Chen Xu's companion, and they also knew that Wei Yuan and Chen Xu had a close relationship.

Thus, amidst the wind and rain, the important task of planting trees was carried out in full swing, and the demons were also having a lively time, engaging in various conversations, one after another, in an endless stream.

Wei Yuan and A Shi gradually became the center of attention.

After that, the canal continued its journey, passing through Jingheng Road and arriving at the driest area of ​​Longchuan.

The river flows through Longchuan, bringing water and coolness to the area most severely affected by drought, as well as vegetation and life.

By this time, the sun had long since set, and night had finally fallen.

The torrential rain that blanketed the entire northern frontier had not yet stopped, and more and more monsters of all kinds were arriving amidst the rain.

Demons are generally more drought-resistant than humans, except for special types of demons such as mirror demons, painting demons, and locust demons.

Whether it's birds and beasts that become demons or plants and trees that become demons, all demon spirits need water!
If mountains and rivers could be restored to forests and the earth could be covered in green, what demon in the world would not rejoice?

Therefore, when it comes to planting trees, the demons are many times more enthusiastic than many humans.

Later, all the students from Ziwei Academy also arrived.

Wen Daoyuan had originally instructed the disciples of the academy to come to the northern frontier to meet him, and ordered them to set up an array in advance to prevent him from being disturbed by the drought demon again when he was casting the spell to divert water from the south to the north.

But little did I know that I would be traveling too fast.

The decisive Wen Daoyuan encountered the equally resolute Chen Xu, who also possessed worldly talent. In one night, Chen Xu painted a complete and exquisite "Map of the Mountains and Rivers of the North and South".

Thus, this massive project was completed with lightning speed by the two of them!
So much so that the disciples of the Ziwei Academy didn't even have time to truly form a formation in the Northern Frontier. After all, not everyone is a Wen Dao Yuan (a high-level cultivator). Traveling thousands or even tens of thousands of miles across mountains and rivers would take ordinary people at least several months or even half a year. How many people in the world can cross such a distance in a day or two?
Even though all the disciples of Ziwei Academy have academic titles, the lowest is Xiucai and the highest is even Jinshi.

Under the guidance of Wen Daoyuan's close disciples, their speed also far exceeded that of ordinary people.

However, they couldn't possibly traverse the entire northern frontier in a single day and night.

It wasn't until most of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project was completed that the disciples of Ziwei Academy finally arrived at the canal in a grand procession.

They weren't fast enough, but their methods were all exceptional.

Some people carry tree seeds with them, while others even pour large amounts of spiritual substances down the canal.

Among them are spiritual objects that fertilize the land, and some are elemental crystals that can directly promote plant growth.

Before Wen Daoyuan set off, he instructed his second disciple to clear out all the spiritual objects from the academy.

Now, with such abundant resources at no expense, the vegetation along the canal seems to have been blessed by magic, growing faster in a single day than it would in several years.

However, if it is possible to divert water from the south to the north overnight and build such a long green belt overnight, is it wrong to call it "divine magic"?

Xiaofeng Mountain, in front of the water mirror.

The ugly monkey guarded the place for a day and a night, until dawn the next day.

In the water mirror, the heavy rain that had been falling all night in the northern frontier finally stopped. As the clouds dispersed and the rain cleared, a rising sun suddenly emerged from the sky, scattering thousands of golden rays.

The sky is bright again.

Under the rising sun, most of the creatures in the northern frontier did not cheer, for at this moment, all were filled with unease.

The rain stopped and the sun came out again.

Will the water in that mighty canal that now flows through northern Xinjiang disappear again?

At this moment, it wasn't just the creatures of the northern frontier who were feeling uneasy; the ugly monkey in front of the water mirror was also secretly worried.

Ugly Monkey couldn't help but say nervously, "Master, the sun is out again. Even though it rained all night, I don't think the land of the sixteen prefectures of the northern frontier was completely soaked."

Squeak, squeak, squeak! Oh dear, although trees have been planted on both sides of the canal, look at the mountains of Longchuan, most of them are still bare.

"Hey, will this South-to-North Water Diversion Project end up being a complete waste of time again?"

As the ugly monkey uttered discouraging words, his eyes remained fixed on the water mirror, revealing his worry.

Mr. Zhou just smiled and remained silent.

He didn't speak, only looked at the reflection in the water mirror. The sunlight was bright, but all living beings remained silent.

Thus, a quarter of an hour, which seemed both long and fleeting, passed.

The rising sun pierced through the clouds and began its ascent towards the zenith.

The rushing canal water showed no signs of sinking or lowering its water level.

Fifteen minutes later, the sunlight grew even brighter, and the canal was filled with rippling water, radiating extraordinary brilliance.

The water level still hasn't dropped.

Fifteen minutes later, someone finally couldn't help but cheer.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Water Mirror, Ugly Monkey blurted out, "Hey, wait a minute, sir, take a look at what's that bobbing in the middle of the canal."
Why does it look so green and shimmering, almost like a precious jade pearl? Hey…”
