Wu Sheng: I can adapt to evolution

Chapter 117: Seizing the Bird Lord's Body (Part )
"The Fountain of Youth has appeared. All martial temples in the country are ordered to strictly monitor the borders. No members of the royal family or any forces of the imperial court other than the border troops are allowed to leave the border."

"Send someone else to monitor everyone around the emperor. If anyone leaves the capital in the near future, kill them immediately."

Inside the Martial Temple, information circulated rapidly.

But most of the content is not about the Fountain of Youth itself, but about the royal family and even the emperor of Daqian.

Because most people who hold power are obsessed with immortality. Practicing martial arts is too difficult. Even if you practice martial arts to the sixth level, you can only live for 150 years.

If one wants to live longer, one must transform into a divine weapon or take power, but these two paths are either too dangerous or too demanding of talent, and are not good choices for most people.

On the contrary, taking some forbidden items is simple and efficient. Even if you end up going crazy, it will be a long time later.

Among the many items related to the evil gods from outside the domain, the Fountain of Youth is the most coveted thing for many kings.

It is said that drinking a sip of the spring water can restore one's youth and grant one a lifespan of over 500 years.

Of course, it is not without its drawbacks. After drinking the spring water, the longer you live, the weirder and even crazier your personality will become, and you will often do some chaotic things.

But even with these shortcomings, those who pursue the Fountain of Youth remain fervent.

Personality disorder is a thing of the future. At least one can live a few hundred years in good health. Many powerful people in their old age are especially obsessed with this.

And now, the most powerful person in the Daqian Dynasty is the now aging emperor.

This is also the reason why the Wu Temple attaches so much importance to the emergence of the Fountain of Youth.

There is cooperation and dependence between the Martial Temple and the Imperial Court, but naturally there are also conflicts. The Martial Temple will never allow the most powerful person in the world to obtain the Fountain of Youth.

An immortal emperor is not a good thing for the world.

……

Lu Ming's figure flashed and he appeared next to the Great Lord [Shi Jun]. He wanted to see what this spring water was.

Since this spring water can give natural spirits such powerful strength, can it also be used by myself?

However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, the tributaries flowing out from the void were like chains that pulled the Great Lord [Shi Jun] away.

Lu Ming chased again, but although the distance between them was less than a foot, there was still a slight difference.

It's like a mirage, no matter how you chase it, you can only see it but never touch it.

After trying several times in a row, Lu Ming gave up.

I don’t know if there are some specific conditions required to come into contact with this spring water, or if living people can never come into contact with this spring water... but I think the first possibility is more likely. If the loach was able to enter the spring water before, there is no reason why humans, who are also living beings, cannot.

"You two, get out of here right now. If you come to harass me again, I'll kill your tribesmen and leave you alone like this stone monster."

Lu Ming said to the other two nature spirits who were watching from a distance.

Now this strange spring has split into hundreds of streams, like silk threads, connecting with the natural spirits of the entire grassland.

Even if the tribe was gone, these natural spirits would not die. However, Lu Ming's words were still very threatening. If the spring water disappeared one day, without the support of the tribesmen, these great masters would most likely not be able to survive.

So, after a little hesitation, the Great Lord [Doomsday] of the Nine Disasters Tribe and the Great Lord [Black Sky] of the Black Wind Tribe quickly left and let this human play by himself. As long as it did not harm their tribes, they did not bother to care.

After the two great masters left, the snowflakes in this piece of heaven and earth became much smaller.

Although it was still falling heavily, visibility was much better.

Lu Ming glanced at the spring water flowing in the sky, emitting a faint glow, but covering the grassland like a big net. The next moment, telekinesis covered his body, and in a blink of an eye he arrived at the statue of the [Bird Statue].

On the body of [Bird Lord], there is also an extremely fine branch connected to the entire spring.

The eight hundred young and strong tribesmen that Lu Ming had previously formed were all covered in dust and dirt, but they were not in danger of life. They had just been buried underground by the power of the Great Lord [Shi Jun].

However, [Bird Lord] gave them a protective shield in time, and [Stone Lord]'s entire tribe was slaughtered by Lu Ming afterwards, so he was unable to make things difficult for them. They took some effort and crawled out from underground with great difficulty.

The appearance of this spring slightly disrupted Lu Ming's plan.

But it’s okay, the tribe’s expansion will continue, just in a different form.

The thought Lu Ming had hidden within the Bird Lord's body quickly took off, delving into the depths of its memory. The next moment, this thought continuously reproduced a large number of disordered memories, mixing them with the Bird Lord's memory.

In fact, the [Bird Lord] had a low level of spirituality and a very simple memory. When he was overwhelmed by these messy memories, he was instantly stunned.

It didn't know why a good grassland spirit suddenly had all kinds of indescribable high-rise buildings, flying iron birds, and shouting iron cows in its mind... With its intelligence, it was simply impossible to understand.

While its mind was in confusion, Lu Ming's thought instantly took the lead and suppressed the Bird Lord's original spirituality.

Lu Ming's thoughts quickly took over the weak natural spirit.

The next moment, Lu Ming tried to switch his consciousness. He felt the scene in front of him change from a human perspective to a natural spirit's perspective.

“It’s such a strange feeling…”

Natural spirits have no eyes, let alone five senses. Their perception of the world is completely different from that of humans.

From Lu Ming's perspective at this moment, the world was a dark abyss with countless light balls of different colors floating in it.

White represents its believers, red represents enemies, black represents the unknown and terror, and green represents tribal warriors and elders...

This is why their thinking is so simple.

Protect your own people, kill your enemies, and avoid danger.

However, Lu Ming was not used to this rough vision. He tried to perceive the world by expanding his telekinesis, but soon failed because the strength of [Bird Lord] was too weak and he could not form high-definition telekinesis like Lu Ming.

But he soon figured out a way, which was to use the vision of birds.

[Bird Lord] is born with the ability to control all kinds of birds. You can also understand this as a very simple authority. It can control all kinds of birds to attack, spy, etc., and naturally it can also convert its own vision into a bird's perspective.
