Ascension failed, the system took me away

As the peach forest disappeared, the dead air that had originally emerged from the ground seemed to be pulled back into the ground.

And those ghosts wandering in the human world seemed to have found their home. Led by wisps of green smoke, they also sank into the ground and disappeared.

The sun set completely and the night passed without incident.

The sun rises, the morning light descends on the earth, bringing new vitality.

The uncomfortable haze that I could still feel yesterday has now dissipated.

Those who were originally weak and constantly coughing finally had their rapidly trembling lungs calmed down and could breathe a sigh of relief.

On the floating pavilion made of Mingxia Fusheng Stone, the Rock Master, who had been sitting in meditation all night, collected the morning dew with his magical powers and brewed a fresh pot of tea.

I had just poured two glasses and placed them on the table when I saw a young scholar in white clothes sitting opposite me.

With one hand he gently waved a folding fan painted with peach blossom branches, and with the other he held his teacup and took a sip.

"Fellow Daoist Taodu, how do you feel?" asked the Rock Master.

"The corner of my clothes is slightly dirty." Taodu put away his folding fan with a snap and chuckled calmly, his words light and casual.

But seeing that the Rock Master raised his eyebrows and stared at him without saying a word, he could only shrug and say, "Well, I almost died and there's no way I can get him back."

The Rock Master smiled slightly and handed over the peach blossom branch that Taodu left behind when he left yesterday: "Since there is nothing else, then I don't need to build a tomb for you."

Tao Du shook his head and did not take it: "Although the problem of dead energy has been solved, the purpose expected by the military advisor has not been achieved. With my ability, I cannot open up a self-contained system of underworld reincarnation."

"It's okay, it's just a try." Yanzhu continued to pour a cup of tea without caring.

Military advisor, that is, Bai Zhi.

After his clone far away in the western land guessed that the geomantic omen of that land might have been abandoned, he came up with a bold idea.

They tried to take advantage of this loophole to create a system independent of the earth's root system.

The reference target is the original underworld reincarnation of the Xia Kingdom.

But this matter is extremely complicated, and he has only read the theory, and currently cannot fully grasp how to operate it.

At this moment, he received a message from the Rock Lord, and learned about the strange phenomenon of death that appeared in the Liyue area, as well as information about the demon god Taodu.

Taodu's body is peach wood, which has the ability to ward off evil spirits, and the power he obtains is related to the soul.

This made Bai Zhi eager to conduct an experiment, and she immediately deduced a rough plan and passed it to Yan Zhu.

In his understanding, the earth veins are the roots of the World Tree, which are spread all over the earth. So is it feasible to replace them with the roots of the Peach Tree Demon?

However, this theory is full of loopholes, because although the World Tree is called a tree, it is not a real tree and is not the same as any plant creature.

But one thing is certain, the earth veins have properties similar to roots.

Whether it was Lemuria's giant golden ship that had become the Clock of Anti-Rhythm, or the leyline terminal that Buyer brought him to in the underground space, they all had the characteristics of trees.

So Baizhi followed this basic possibility and came up with a plan to replace the Liyue land veins with Taodu's main body.

Anyway, there's something wrong with the ground veins here, leaving a flaw, so we can give it a try.

If it succeeds and we can develop a system independent of the earth veins, there will be a lot of room for operation later.

For example, establishing a super network covering the entire territory, collecting the souls of dead creatures in the area, seizing the memory of the original earth veins, and turning them into computing power that can be used by oneself and is not supervised by the sky.

Unfortunately, as expected, this plan did not succeed.

Taodu completed the initial work of repairing the earth veins with his body and power, but when he continued to try to replace them, he found that he couldn't do it at all.

So he had no choice but to give up and escape as a human.

He also felt it was a pity because if successful, theoretically he would become the God of Land of Liyue and be in charge of the new network of earth veins.

But this opportunity also comes with huge risks, and if you are not careful, you may die.

However, with Bai Zhi's current half-baked plan, the risks are definitely greater than the opportunities.

Therefore, you can only give it a try. If it doesn’t work, forget it. At least the problem of dead air has been solved.

"This military advisor's ideas are so wild and bold. I can't wait to meet him."

Taodu was very interested in Baizhi, whom he had never met before.

……

"It seems too much of a stretch."

In the desert area, Bai Zhi, who was hiding and studying alone, thought to herself.

He had received new information from the Rock Master and knew the expected result.

Liyue is so far away from here that ordinary mental communication methods are simply ineffective.

His connection with the Rock Master depends entirely on the communication signals from the base stations set up by his clones along the way.

In order to prevent them from being destroyed by living creatures, they were all placed in uninhabited areas, which wasted a lot of materials and caused high latency, making real-time communication impossible.

But it is enough to exchange some information.

Although the attempt to plan an independent geomagnetic network failed, Bai Zhi did not care because he had already made some progress in his research on the original fetal sea water.

He found a completely new method that could directly utilize the computing power of the World Tree to bypass possible supervision in the sky and avoid being noticed for his usurpation of power.

There are just some risks.

……

"Wow, Contractor, look at the soldiers you brought out, they are getting braver and braver."

5677, who was exploring the World Tree with Bai Yin, exclaimed.

They wandered around, tinkered with things and left some things here and there, and finally arrived at the main target, the World Tree.

This was the foundation for Yan Qing's enlightenment, so Bai Qin tinkered with it with great care, arranging all sorts of messy things in great detail.

After hearing what 5677 said, Bai Yin shifted his gaze, his eyes as sharp as a torch penetrating the barriers of space and looked towards where Bai Zhi was.

After seeing what the young man was doing, he raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "Indeed, you are very brave."

In his vision, he saw Baizhi going deep underground and touching the polluted earth veins of the western land that were on the verge of total collapse.

He tried to use the pollution of the dark power as a firewall to indirectly contact the World Tree and obtain its computing power.

I have to say that this approach is really bold.

In order to avoid the supervision of the sky, he used another more dangerous force as a vest substitute to cover his tracks.

Although it is feasible in theory, it is also extremely dangerous to operate. It will be troublesome if it is contaminated by the dark power.

Bai Xin did not interfere with this. Instead, he wished him to keep up the good work and be more bold.

At this moment, 5677 suddenly said, "By the way, Contractor, I just received news that something seems to have happened in your original world."

"What's going on?" Bai Yin's expression froze, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice.

When it comes to his hometown, his attention is immediately completely diverted.

5677 scratched his head: "I'm not sure about the details. The cluster didn't give us much information. Do you want to go back and take a look?"

"It's been a while since I've been back. I don't know how it's going now, and whether anyone has followed in my footsteps."

After saying that, the two figures disappeared, leaving only four golden three-dimensional runes behind, which disappeared into an unknown place.
