The current situation is that Ye Tiancheng is going alone, while Houzi is just there for the ride.
This guy is truly a living treasure.
Jiang Yinxue exclaimed, "Houzi, you really are a piece of trash. Making jokes at a time like this."
"It's a dangerous time for Ye Tiancheng."
"So can you say something human?"
Given this kid's problem, everyone felt a pang of anxiety.
As a friend, he should have been worried. Instead, he was making jokes.
They were joking, naturally, to ease their tense hearts.
Yan Qiuhe said nothing.
She understood perfectly, so she didn't have many questions.
"The Medicine King's Divine Scripture states that the blood polygonum multiflorum grows among scattered rocks, which means we need to excavate stones. Don't we have the Sky-Shattering Thunder?"
"You actually thought of that thing? Once that thing explodes, it'll blow up the entire mountain. That would be a loss greater than the gain."
"Indeed," Houzi said, scratching his head.
The problem truly lay with him; he was the source of all bad ideas.
These words did catch Ye Tiancheng's attention.
He was thinking that if the power of the stone array was immense, then they would truly need to get serious.
Otherwise, he would be filled with regret.
To break the power of the stone array, more power was naturally needed.
Although the Sky-Shattering Thunder was powerful, for him, none of this was a problem.
The real problem lay in how he viewed the issue.
Therefore, in his opinion, using Houzi's method was not even a last resort.
Ye Tiancheng began to ponder how to break the stone array.
Because he felt that the stone array was something built by ancient people, the strange power within it made him feel a powerful force surging.
This force was insurmountable.
And the Sky-Shattering Thunder seemed to possess a certain fortuitous power.
It also originated from the primordial chaos of ancient times.
This chaotic power was clearly adept at dealing with ancient power.
Ye Tiancheng's mind was already swirling with many ideas; he felt that this was good enough. What else could be done?
The best choice for breaking the stone array was Houzi's method.
With this thought, he actually took out the Sky-Shattering Thunder.
This thing was truly terrifying. The moment he took it out, everyone else was stunned by his aura.
Fear appeared on everyone's faces.
Admittedly, this method carried a certain risk.
A spirit of adventure drove Ye Tiancheng to become even more inclined to take risks.
He felt that this would make him stronger.
Only by becoming stronger could he survive in this world.
So, steeling his resolve, he threw the Sky-Shattering Thunder towards the center of the stone array.
The Sky-Shattering Thunder began to make a tremendous noise in the center of the stone array, followed by a ground-shaking aura spreading, dust billowing, red flames soaring into the sky, and a massive explosion that made the surrounding mountains tremble.
"Damn it, this kid is a scoundrel for actually using the Sky-Shattering Thunder!"
"It's all Houzi's fault; his mouth needs a beating." Jiang Yinxue was very angry.
Yan Qiuhe also blamed Houzi. Su Mingxian said nothing, her eyes fixed on where Ye Tiancheng was, but she couldn't see anything. There was only a cloud of dust.
The dust obscured Ye Tiancheng; he was completely submerged...
"That kid must have been blown to dust!" Houzi continued to say these detestable words.
Seeing Houzi say this, the others were furious.
He was truly a scoundrel and trash.
There was often only a fine line between a scoundrel and trash.
Sometimes, when one felt like an incredibly powerful figure, in the eyes of others, he was just an unqualified rogue.
"Ah! I'm so suffocated."
A voice sounded in their ears.
Ye Tiancheng miraculously appeared before their eyes.
Seeing Ye Tiancheng unharmed, everyone was very surprised.
It turned out that the stone array had absorbed the power of the Sky-Shattering Thunder, confining it within its control. Therefore, Ye Tiancheng was fine, and the mountain was not blown away because of it.
His heart was filled with excitement.
He felt that this gamble was truly worth it.
Fortune and glory are sought in danger.
Therefore, he regarded this as a classic principle.
"You just mess around!" Jiang Yinxue was very angry with him, feeling that he had acted without consulting her, which was unforgivable.
Unforgivable naturally led to being scorned.
His heart was filled with many emotions.
The worry in his heart was dispelled with his safety. Su Mingxian took a deep breath.
Her deep concern had also vanished.
"Don't mess around anymore, in the future..." Su Mingxian's feelings for Ye Tiancheng were different.
Everyone's world becomes beautiful because of someone they like.
It was that simple, eliminating much of the dross that shouldn't appear in life.
Then you would discover that in this life, there is truly nothing worth obsessing over.
But for Ye Tiancheng, his dream of being a salted fish had always lingered in his heart.
His heart was that simple, that uncomplicated.
With the stone array broken, everything around it also changed, and these scattered fragments lay strewn around him.
Ye Tiancheng thought that if there had been no stone array back then, and if he had triggered the Sky-Shattering Thunder, they would have all turned to dust.
Everything was no longer what it seemed.
What was once thought to be was no longer thought to be.
A new beginning awaited Ye Tiancheng to discover.
His destiny, he had to grasp it well.
Perhaps in Ye Tiancheng's view, many things were the same.
No matter how unwilling he was to accept this reality, he still had to continue living.
If he always wanted to be a salted fish, then he should thoroughly implement the salted fish mentality.
This was exactly what Ye Tiancheng thought.
He had almost no other extraneous thoughts.
Because the more thoughts he had, the more he felt unable to break free from his destiny.
On this knot of destiny, he felt an ever-increasing, indescribable crisis.
These crises awaited, extending infinitely...
Many times, he pondered these trivial matters.
These issues truly reflected a reality that one had to accept.
"Honestly speaking, we are all mere passersby in this era!" Jiang Yinxue suddenly uttered this sentence.
Honestly speaking, this was spreading negativity.
"Don't say such things here, or we'll all be led astray by you!"
The one who truly disliked hearing such words at this moment was Su Mingxian.
She did not like Ye Tiancheng being misled by such words.
Unfortunately, some people, even if you don't mislead them, will still go astray.
Even if it wasn't their intention, it had already formed in their actions and thoughts.
This formed entity would severely take root in their hearts.
Recalling the past, they had been entangled in this very issue.
"Alright, let's stop talking about those problems."
Ye Tiancheng was truly afraid that they would start arguing over trivial matters, which would affect the harmony and development of the entire team.
Since they had met, it was destined by heaven.
As the saying goes, it takes a hundred years of cultivation to share a boat, and a thousand years to sleep together.
These words should not have been spoken.
They would cause everyone's hearts to fall apart.
Therefore, he thought that since they were together, they should cooperate wholeheartedly.
Although he felt that such a thing was difficult, Ye Tiancheng had no intention of giving up.
He was resolutely executing his ideas, never wavering.
Once some people fixate on a certain idea, they will constantly dwell on these issues.
Ye Tiancheng immediately searched around and soon found a pillar of green vine.
Deep within the vine, a palm-sized object appeared in his hand.
Therefore, he cared greatly about this.
Because it was not the blood polygonum multiflorum, but the legendary heavenly polygonum multiflorum.
"Heavenly Polygonum Multiflorum!"
"It's not of much use!"
"But it's better than ordinary polygonum multiflorum," Ye Tiancheng said. "According to the Medicine King's Divine Scripture, this thing is quite good."
"It is quite good, but it seems useless."
"That's because you don't know."
"Tch!" Houzi looked at Ye Tiancheng with disdain.
He felt that Ye Tiancheng was just pretending to understand the Medicine King's Divine Scripture and showing off.
What was there to not say?
It was precisely because he acted in a way that was disliked that he spoke deliberately. If he truly wanted to be down-to-earth, he wouldn't have said that the heavenly polygonum multiflorum was useful.
Your ignorance did not mean his ignorance.
Therefore, he disliked Houzi immensely.
He thought he was just an idiot.
An idiot, naturally, had his own uses.
Regardless of what Houzi said, Ye Tiancheng collected the heavenly polygonum multiflorum.
Just then, a night-blooming cereus vine as thick as an arm appeared before everyone's eyes.
"My goodness, what a large polygonum multiflorum vine!"
"Is this the blood polygonum multiflorum?" someone exclaimed.
"I don't know, but this vine extends under a large round stone. Even if we all worked together, we wouldn't be able to dig it out."
"Then let's not dig it," Ye Tiancheng said indifferently.
These words were truly heartless.
Many beautiful ideas turned to nothing at this moment.
Everyone's mood was like a tangled mess.
Ye Tiancheng, being more astute, quickly regained his composure.
He knew very well that at this juncture, only by maintaining a calm mind could he restore everyone's spirit.
The reason people are chaotic is that their minds are chaotic first.
One must first calm the mind to restore it to normal.
Without exception!
"It's truly tragic. I always think that if we are a disorganized mob, then the dreams we want to achieve are impossible."
"You actually understand, I thought you didn't!"
Honestly speaking, this was pushing people to work together to move the spirit stone.
"Okay."
With these thoughts, everyone's mood became uplifted.
For a necessary goal, they united as one.
Ye Tiancheng was very happy to see everyone thinking of him.
His expression was like that of a husky, his eyes practically shining.
Next, they all exerted their strength together.
This quickly moved the giant stone aside.
Beneath the giant stone, a huge root was revealed.
Something as large as a rice bowl was revealed.
Everyone was astonished!
"Wow! I thought it wasn't that big, but it's so thick. How do we carry it back?"
"Space." Ye Tiancheng grinned.
"Space? You have it?"
"Yes, of course." Ye Tiancheng had space in his previous world, and he hadn't used it yet in this world. Therefore, he hurriedly searched for space.
Indeed, the system agreed with him, saying that to re-enable space, he needed to acknowledge its power.
The so-called acknowledged power was the ability to form a synchronized trajectory with the system.
This would allow him to do as he pleased.
