This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 1550 - 25: Whale God

When a whale falls to the seabed, it nurtures the beings of the dark realm for fifteen years.

In the world Lu Qingshan once knew, a whale fall was among the most awe-inspiring ecosystems.

And in this world, the whale fall of the Longevity Whale is one of the greatest wonders, capable of nurturing all things.

An "immortal and undying" spirit beast, gentle in nature, completely different from the ferocity of demon beasts, slumbering all year round, transforming into islands to sustain countless creatures, evolving an internal world to create miracles of life; even in death, it continues everything.

Only such a beast is worthy of the term "Spirit."

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

....

Feng Mo looked out through the hollow bamboo and wood windows of the pavilion, gazing at the beautiful lake scenery, taking in the entire Wind Whale City, his expression extremely complex.

Humans cannot fight against the heavens.

This is a universally known truth.

This time, with Lu Qingshan's help, the Whale God once again managed to avert the threat from the Heavenly River Sea.

But would the will of the Heavenly River Sea give up so easily?

The last time, the Heavenly River Sea's method was a Sea Demon invasion, but it was repelled by their Wind Clan.

But it soon returned, and its methods escalated to triggering a natural disaster that wiped out Qingcang Island.

What about the next time?

What methods will the Heavenly River Sea use next time?

Feng Mo was full of worry about the future of Qingcang Island.

.....

"Then why can't the Whale God choose to leave the Heavenly River Sea?" Lu Qingshan asked again.

"The world is so vast, and the seas are boundless. Besides the Heavenly River Sea, aren't there other sea territories?"

No matter how powerful the Heavenly River Sea is, it's ultimately just the spirit of mountains and rivers, with an innate disadvantage of being unable to move and limited by the sea's area.

Since the Heavenly River Sea is so focused on targeting the Wind Clan's Whale God, wouldn't it be best if the Whale God left the Heavenly River Sea?

In the open sea, fish can swim freely.

If you can't fight, why not escape?

Theoretically speaking, this is the simplest solution.

Feng Mo hesitated for a moment.

This is all secret and normally would not be revealed to an outsider. If not for Lu Qingshan's previous assistance and the Whale God's special regard for him, he wouldn't have spoken so much to Lu Qingshan.

But thinking about it again, since so much had already been said, he figured it wouldn't hurt to spill the last part, so he spoke up.

"Because it can't leave."

"The Whale God has been slumbering and evolving for so many years, with dust and sand accumulating on its back, evolving into the expansive and grand Qingcang Island we see today.

In such circumstances, wanting to move with an entire island on its back would be a massive burden."

"Even for the Whale God, this wouldn't be an easy feat, requiring enormous effort."

"And the Whale God is already too old. It needs to focus all its remaining energy on evolving this small world, so it can be stable and independent after the Whale God departs."

"All we can do is help the Whale God eliminate any external interference, allowing it to complete this final task in peace." Feng Mo's tone was filled with a sense of lament, along with a deeply hidden bitterness and helplessness.

"And what about the people of Qingcang Island?" Lu Qingshan understood the helplessness in Feng Mo's heart.

The Heavenly Dao wants a "whale fall" and will not consider the lives of the billions of creatures on Qingcang Island.

"There's nothing we can do." Feng Mo spoke truthfully.

"There's only the path of migration," continued Feng Bai: "But for Qingcang Island, migration... means extinction."

Above the Heavenly River Sea, teleportation arrays are ineffective, and the Heavenly River Sea is vast, teeming with sea demons, leaving few transportation means aside from Cultivators flying across.

On Qingcang Island, there are billions of living beings, with ordinary people without cultivation making up the majority.

They cannot migrate by flying.

In fact, because the distance is too great, with no places to rest along the way, even many Cultivators would find it hard to complete the migration independently.

"We can't reach other islands. We've already explored this. Even the nearest island to Qingcang Island would require Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators to fly non-stop for nearly two months."

"Not to mention ordinary people... Although using a Spirit Boat could facilitate migration, compared to the population of Qingcang Island's living creatures, the Spirit Boat's capacity is like a drop in the ocean," Wind Saint said bitterly.

"Moreover, during migration, we must face a series of issues such as food, water, and waste..."

Compared to migrations on land, the difficulty of migrating in marine environments is exponentially higher.

"Additionally, there are countless islands above the Heavenly River Sea, but islands as large and vibrant as Qingcang Island are rare and mostly already occupied. We..." Wind Saint's voice grew more bitter.

Even as Honorable Realm Cultivators, high and lofty, they could not solve this dilemma, a stalemate.

Lu Qingshan, however, did not see it this way. His gaze flickered for a moment, and then he suddenly spoke: "Islands above the Heavenly River Sea that can accommodate the billions of living creatures on Qingcang Island are scarce... But within our Human Race territory, there is no shortage of such places."

The Sky Dome Heaven has a vast area, ample resources; accommodating one Qingcang Island, or even ten or a hundred Qingcang Islands, would be more than sufficient.

More importantly, if the entire population of Qingcang Island were to migrate to the Sky Dome Heaven, the Wind Clan would essentially become one with the Human Race, sharing common interests.

Just like when faced with the Demon Race invasion, within the Sky Dome Heaven, no Sect, no Cultivator could stand aloof.

Once through this door, you're "one of the family."

Feng Mo glanced at Lu Qingshan.

Lu Qingshan's intentions were undoubtedly the "heart of Sima Zhao," known to all.

In fact, he himself had no intention to disguise it.

"Even for your Human Race, such a massive clan migration across the sea can't be accomplished, right?" Feng Mo did not refuse nor agree, but instead furrowed his brow and presented his doubts.

This was the truth.

"Perhaps there's a feasible way, but I'll need to speak with your Whale God first." Lu Qingshan said softly.

"You want to meet our Whale God?" Feng Mo instinctively wanted to refuse, but just then, a gentle breeze-like ripple swept past.

That was a voice, echoing by his ear.

Feng Mo was silent for a moment, then said, "Alright, the Whale God also wishes to see you."

"Follow me."

...

Lu Qingshan thought he would meet the Wind Clan's Whale God in a very secretive place, but in fact, Feng Mo merely led him out the door and to the blue lakeside in front of the pavilion.

Noticing Lu Qingshan's puzzled expression, Feng Mo explained, "This world was birthed by the Whale God and is part of the Whale God itself, so within this world, the Whale God is omnipresent."

Lu Qingshan's eyes twinkled as he looked towards the lake.

Unknowingly, the lake surface began to ripple with waves.

After the ripples, the image of a medium-sized blue whale appeared on the lake's surface.

Lu Qingshan gazed at the lake surface, staring at the image of the blue whale.

In the next moment, a gentle breeze brushed his face, and another wave of ripples spread out.

Simultaneously, an ancient voice echoed in Lu Qingshan's mind.

"The aura on you, the aura of kin, where does it come from, Zhuo?"

In its tone, there was a hint of hopeful anticipation.

Lu Qingshan's answer did not disappoint it, "I once encountered another Longevity Whale in another sea domain."

"Kin, kin, it's wonderful that there truly are other kin still existing in the world, Zhuo!" The Whale God's voice, although still ancient, was filled with joy, lively and vigorous, contrary to his age.

"However, that Longevity Whale is far less powerful than you, Whale God. Compared to you, it is still quite young," Lu Qingshan added.

"Just call me Zhuo." Zhuo, was the Whale God's name.

"In the Longevity Whale family, there should be none older than I, Zhuo."

"I wish to meet it." It finally said.
