Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader-Chapter 1363 - 1048-1049: Epic Immersion, the Mysterious Elder!
"Creak!"
"Creak!"
As Jiang Dali chewed on the fresh fruit brought by the Fire Qilin, he listened to the detailed reports from Yu Cheng’an and others beside him.
After delivering the fruit, the Fire Qilin hovered low around the ruins of Leifeng Tower, occasionally looking up at the Fake Phoenix circling the sky, letting out a threatening growl that drew continuous exclamations from many onlooking players.
At this moment, it had been a short half-day since Jiang Dali set off away from the main team.
The Fire Qilin’s speed was astonishing, with abundant Physical Strength and infinite energy.
In just half a day, it sprinted over a thousand miles to reach Hangzhou Leifeng Tower.
This was even after Jiang Dali deliberately chose remote paths with few flammable plants, which took some time; otherwise, he would have reached Leifeng Tower by dawn.
Riding the Fire Qilin, aside from a bit of clothing wear, Inner Strength depletion, and some minor scorching below, the overall experience was extremely comfortable.
Whether in terms of style or pride, riding a Divine Beast greatly satisfied a man’s desire for the ultimate mount, eliciting inward praise from Jiang Dali.
At this time, having finished listening to Yu Cheng’an and the others’ analysis of the severe situation, Jiang Dali nodded slightly, spat out the fruit seeds which clinked on the tray beside him, and said, "Since even the relics of the Eighteen Divine Monks can’t hold for another two days, how much material do we have that can be used to seal the underwater trench now? Can we start construction immediately?"
Yu Cheng’an quickly drew out a prepared blueprint from his sleeve, spread it on the table before Jiang Dali, and pressed it down with the Golden Seal, pointing, "Village Chief, please look, this is the result of our Mountain Village as well as the brave and fearless Abnormal People from Wudang and Shaolin who explored through the night.
With fervor and at the cost of their lives, they’ve nearly completely measured the specific space and length of the trench and even the cave.
This is the blueprint drafted from the information I personally gathered from the Abnormal People, roughly measuring the specific area of the trench and underground cave."
At the end, Yu Cheng’an’s eyes were bloodshot, unsure if moved to tears by the many heroic sacrifices of the Abnormal People or exhausted from staying up all night.
"Amitabha Buddha! This old monk did not expect that at such a moment of saving the world, so many Abnormal People would take the lead and face danger first, sacrificing themselves. Such spirit and sacrifice must be remembered by the world."
Shaolin Master Du Yuan clasped his hands and sighed, "This old monk has decided that after this calamity, I will write a record of merits for the Abnormal People to ensure the world more kindly receives them."
Song Yuanqiao from Wudang and others echoed in agreement.
"A task that rewards extravagantly for risking death with benefits surpassing death penalties indeed taps into players’ tendency to seize bargains, making them flock to complete it, deeply moving Yu Cheng’an and the others."
Jiang Dali chuckled inwardly.
However, he felt this was good, as at least it would lead the natives of the Mixed Martial Arts World to be more accepting of many players, fostering a sense of belonging and unity among players, allowing them to be more immersed in participating in the world’s construction.
When one invests emotions into something, the memory becomes profound, which, to Jiang Dali, is a good thing.
His gaze fell on the blueprint on the table, observing that Yu Cheng’an’s drawing resembled a gourd shape:
The trench at the entrance was the long gourd neck, while the space inside the underground cave was the gourd body.
Beyond was a small opening at the gourd’s base, a break in the bottom.
From Yu Cheng’an’s annotated text on the blueprint, it appeared that the trench and the entire underground cave’s large space was about a circumference of three hundred zhang in length and width, while the break at the gourd’s base had a diameter of only about ten zhang.
On the surface, resolving this peril seemed simple, merely requiring the hole at the bottom of the cave leading to the magma pool to be blocked.
But the real situation was not that straightforward.
This is because the trench lies precisely at the lowest point of the West Lake’s water, resembling a teardrop shape, being called "Yellow Spring Tears."
In such a case, the power of the water pressure from the West Lake flowing down to fill was extremely formidable. Even temporarily blocking the hole would inevitably lead to geological collapse due to the enormous water pressure, eventually dislodging the blockade.
On the other hand, merely sealing the hole in the bottom of the West Lake could not guarantee that Earth Fire Magma would not erupt.
If Earth Fire Magma erupts, impacting the blocked hole, the fierce Flame Power and geological shock would still make the two natural hazards collide, resulting in the legendary disaster of "Yellow Spring Tears" colliding with "Hellfire."
The reason such disasters have not occurred in the past was due to the power barrier emitted by the Divine Stone, which could withstand the eruption of Earth Fire Magma’s Flame Power and the weight of the water from West Lake being pressed down, thus ingeniously preventing the catastrophe from erupting.
So now, replacing the role played by the Divine Stone is not as simple as imagined, and simply sealing the hole at the bottom of West Lake is not a permanent solution.
According to Yu Cheng’an’s estimates, merely blocking the hole would require minimal materials to accomplish.
However, the seal that blocks the hole would not be able to withstand the entire West Lake’s weight for long, nor could it endure the impact of an eruption of Earth Fire Magma.
Ultimately, the West Lake won’t be able to prevent geological collapse, or the eruption of the Magma could pour into West Lake, causing the water to completely integrate with the magma. This influx to the earth’s core would result in massive areas of magma cooling, forming expansions and contractions due to heat, leading to widespread geological collapses and triggering a great earthquake that sweeps across the land.
