Chapter 321: The Truth About the Mass Extinction
Wei Yi and Giant Vine talked in detail for a long time, and then he realized that in his blood, there was a special substance that could promote the growth of living beings, and this substance was the seed of life that Giant Vine said.
"Every time before the great tribulation, there are people who are chosen to be the nurturers of the seeds of life, executing the beginning of the next era." Juteng slowly told Wei Yi the truth, "And you are the one who was chosen. ”
"Me?" Wei Yi was surprised. This news is really a little incomprehensible to him. He looked at the giant vine in confusion, stunned for a long time, but unable to speak.
He really couldn't think of any words to use to express how he felt at this moment. After a long time, Wei Yi asked, "Who chose me?" And who is carrying out the mass extinction? Also, who determines the cultivator of the seed of life? ”
"Mother. Our mother is the one who chooses the nurturer of the seed of life. Juteng said slowly to Wei Yi.
Wei Yi asked puzzledly, "Your mother?" Who is she? ”
"She's the Yuwen Chengxiu you've seen." The giant vine said something that surprised Wei Yi immensely. The name Yuwen Chengxiu, Wei Yi has heard it countless times. Even the person named Yuwen Chengxiu, he had seen it a few times.
But for the first time, he knew that this Yuwen Chengxiu was actually the mother of this giant vine. "She? How could it be her? What the hell is going on? Wei Yi couldn't help but blurt out.
The giant vine slowly told Wei Yi about a dusty history, and after Wei Yi listened, he understood. It turns out that billions of years ago, when the earth was just a hot planet, there was an extremely beautiful planet not far from the earth. It is the Star of Theia.
There are many kinds of creatures on that planet, and the level of civilization is far beyond the level of the current earth. But just like human beings, when material civilization develops to a certain extent, the inner greed of all living beings will be infinitely aroused.
At that time, several powerful races on the planet Theia wanted to control the whole of Theia in their own hands. The contradictions between them led to the outbreak of a devastating war. The entire planet of Theia has been in the midst of years of war since then.
Countless races have been slaughtered, and millions of creatures have lost their lives in the war. And this huge catastrophe, after killing and injuring so many lives, not only is it not over, but it is still intensifying.
Eventually, the many races on the planet Theia could no longer endure it any longer. Together, they found the guardian of Theia and sought her help. And this guardian is Yuwen Chengxiu. She is an ancient life that has existed since the dawn of the universe.
Woomoon Sung-so accepts the pleas of these races and begins to mediate the parties in the hope of ending this senseless war. But she failed. The major races that have lost their minds not only did not accept Yuwen Chengxiu's adjustment, but instead started the idea of the magical energy contained in Yuwen Chengxiu's body. It is said that it is a powerful energy that can create a world.
At this moment, it hooked Yuwen Chengxiu's anger. The life on the planet Theia was originally cultivated by Yuwen Chengxiu. All races can be said to be her children. Now, instead of listening to her as a creator, these children want to control her.
It's just the opposite. After repeated unsuccessful dissuasion, Yuwen Chengxiu was full of disappointment with such a life form. She eventually made a crazy decision: to destroy Theia and create a more perfect planet again.
And this caused the destruction of the planet Theia, and the complete transformation of the earth. When Wei Yi heard this, he was almost speechless with the shock.
He knew that Yuwen Chengxiu had lived for a long time, but he never thought that she would live for so long. She turned out to be the original creator of life on Earth. What kind of monster is this, it's just incredible!
"This, this can't be. How could she live that long? Wei Yi couldn't help but blurt out.
The giant vine seemed to laugh. Wei Yi could hear a burst of happy laughter in the air. It said to Wei Yi, "Look at that clay figure on the ground. It can live that long, how can other creatures not live that long? Creatures die because the energy in their bodies is exhausted, so they have that result. ”
It spoke, as if remembering something, and said again, "By the way, haven't you humans already tried to carry out the plan of eternal life?" This all illustrates the possibility of living beings being immortalized. It's just that your current technology is not developed enough. ”
Wei Yi shook his head, and no longer discussed this issue with Juteng. He thought for a moment and asked, "What about later?" What happened? ”
Giant Vine spoke slowly about the rest of the story again. Just after Yuwen Chengxiu made that decision, those races finally did the stupidest thing. So that Yuwen Chengxiu had to start immediately to create a new life planet.
The races, engulfed by greed, detonated the core of Theia. This stupid act caused Theia to rush towards a nearby planet at several times the speed of its own revolution.
It was from that day that the complete destruction of Theia began. And the rebirth of the earth also began from that moment. The Great Collision has long since created a completely new Earth and created the Moon.
Life on Earth, because of its completely different living environment from Theia, has begun a new change. And in order to prevent the tragedy from happening again, Yuwen Chengxiu will select a group of creatures with excellent character every tens of millions of years to further evolve. She hopes that through this method, life on this planet will develop more perfectly.
And this has also caused a terrible consequence, that is, every tens of millions of years, there will inevitably be a global mass extinction. Only organisms that can adapt can survive after mass extinction.
This is a cruel but helpless law of nature. The survival of the fittest can make the world develop more harmoniously. It's a law that always works.
"So, the mass extinction was actually carried out by her, wasn't it?" Wei Yi asked.
But the giant vine denied it. It said, "No. Her mission is to guard the planet's core and prevent the same event from happening again. The mass extinction was developed by the planet itself. This is not directly related to her. ”
After hearing this, Wei Yi thought for a moment and asked, "Then now, what is the situation?" She asked me to come to the present a hundred years ago, and I came, but what if I came? If you say that, I'm not here to any avail. ”
Wei Yi said, and said with some doubts: "Moreover, she asked me to prevent another person from approaching her, what does this have to do with me?" Even if I stop that person, it won't change anything. Like you said, mass extinction is not something I can change personally. ”
After Wei Yi finished speaking, he looked at the giant vine in confusion. After hearing this, Juteng hurriedly explained: "This time is different. ”
It slowly explained to Wei Yi, "Some of the energy in her body was stolen by one of you humans. She asked you to come because she needed your help. Now she is very weak. If you can't help her, then this mass extinction is not as simple as the destruction of living things. It would be a terrible disaster. ”
It spoke, with a hint of fear in its voice, and said in a trembling voice, "Everything will be completely ruined again." All living things, all everything, will be completely destroyed. Her current strength can no longer protect the star core intact. Once the Earth's star core is mutated, it will be too late. ”
When Wei Yi heard this, he faintly understood. He suddenly stood up and asked, "Then what should I do?" ”
"Go back!" Giant Vine affirmed, "Find her, help her." Do what you can to stop that. ”
Wei Yi nodded after listening. He leaned down to look at the stone and saw that it was still asleep. "Don't worry about it. I gave it the material energy it needed. It's evolving right now. When it wakes up, you'll notice that it's changed. ”
After Wei Yi listened, he was relieved. He saw that the stone was really fine, so he asked how to go back. Juteng smiled heartily and said to Wei Yi, "I have already prepared it for you." Always waiting for your arrival. It's just that I didn't expect this to be such a long time. ”
As it spoke, it quickly stretched out countless vine branches, tugging vigorously somewhere in the underground space. A metal door suddenly appeared in front of Wei Yi's eyes.
Wei Yi was stunned for a moment, and before he could ask, the giant vine quickly opened the door and took out a small box from the door. It handed the box to Wei Yi and said, "Time and space travel requires a lot of energy. I've got a shuttle here, and you can use it just in time. It's something that's sealed in a time capsule, and I think you know how to open it. ”
Wei Yi hurriedly opened the box and took a closer look at the contents inside. The box contained only an oval ball and a light garment. The clothes were very familiar to Wei Yi.
He picked it up and took a closer look, and found that it turned out to be an invisibility cloak. "Be prepared. This dress is much stronger than the one you used to wear. This is the only invisibility cloak left on our planet Theia. I'm giving it to you, and I hope you'll put it to good use. Juteng explained to Wei Yi.
Wei Yi nodded, answered, and put away these few things. Now everything has been settled. Wei Yi could finally go to the plane where he was supposed to go.
Wei Yu then returned to the Ark with the help of the Giant Vine, retrieved his belongings, and took the Red Lightning Clan with them.
After explaining the situation of the stone in detail, the people of the stone clan sent Wei Yi away with great joy. They drove the ark and began their new life. And Wei Yi took the people of the Red Lightning and the Gosi Clan to the underground world where the giant vine was located, preparing to leave this world for work.
