Chapter 505: Chapter 495: Water Dao Chapter 505: Chapter 495: Water Dao The Kaiming Beast also shouted, “Be careful, this is Jadescent Nectar! It smells fragrant on the tongue but packs a powerful punch! It’s so full of spiritual energy that even immortals would get drunk! You, Little Rabbit, should only take one drop!”

However, before he could finish his sentence, with a clang, the Rabbit slammed the wine jug onto the table, its eyes bloodshot, and the white fur on its face turning slightly rosy.

Burping from the alcohol, it said, “Burp… Ah, that’s the spot!”

Seeing the Rabbit drinking an entire jug of Jadescent Nectar without collapsing, everyone else was stunned!

“This…”

Only Gonggong’s eyes lit up as he enthusiastically clapped his hands, “Hahaha, this Rabbit has guts, I like this Rabbit!”

As a result, the Rabbit looked up with blood-red eyes, a face reeking of alcohol, swaying on its feet, eyebrows raised, its expression mirroring exactly how The Queen Mother of the West looked at him, and then in a draggy tone, it tossed out a sentence, “Little brother, don’t mix up our seniority, call me ‘Bro’!”

Gonggong’s laughter came to an abrupt halt, and his expression froze.

Leaning against the wine jug, Yi Zheng belched and said, “Don’t be sore about it!”

Yi Zheng pointed at The Queen Mother of the West in the distance and said, “That’s my sister! You’re younger than her, call me ‘Bro’!”

Gonggong frowned deeply, turning to look at The Queen Mother of the West, as if to seek confirmation. But she was busy holding a wine jug and drinking, her cheeks flushed red, seemingly unaware of their side.

Gonggong said, “You little Rabbit, you’ve got some nerve. Daring to impersonate the Boss Lady’s brother?”

Slap!

Yi Zheng, with bloodshot eyes, placed The Queen Mother of the West’s Golden Medal on the table and said, “Does this prove anything?”

Gonggong looked at the Token of The Queen Mother of the West in amazement and said, “This… this at most proves you have a good relation with the Boss Lady.”

Slap!

Yi Zheng placed the Kunlun Mirror on the table, “Does this prove anything?”

Gonggong’s square face stretched into an oval, astonished as he said, “The Kunlun Mirror? Wow, this… this does prove you have a really good relationship!”

Yi Zheng placed the Kunlun Mirror on top of the Gold Token and said, “This plus this, does it prove anything now?”

Gonggong was silent…

Just then, a little hand slapped the table, “With this added, does it prove anything now?”

Gonggong, hearing that voice, abruptly leapt up, and looking at the owner of the little hand, it was his nightmare of many years — The Queen Mother of the West!

Gonggong looked at The Queen Mother of the West’s flushed cheeks and then at the Rabbit’s identical little face, he said with a sob in his voice, “Yes, it definitely does… The Queen Mother has arrived.”

Gonggong raised his hand pointing behind the two, shouting, but the Rabbit and the Loli merely stared straight at him, not turning around!

Feeling uncomfortable under their gaze, Gonggong stammered, “The…The Jade Emperor has also come.”

The Rabbit and the Loli still didn’t turn their heads!

Gonggong swallowed saliva as the Rabbit grabbed the Kunlun Mirror, but The Queen Mother of the West snatched it away, then stuffed the Golden Medal into Yi Zheng’s hands and said, “Teach this disrespectful brat a lesson for your Big Sis!”

Ordinarily, Yi Zheng would never dare to follow suit, but now…

His Golden Core had absorbed all the spiritual energy, but the alcohol wreaked havoc in his body; the alcohol emboldened the timid Rabbit’s courage, and with a flick of the Golden Medal and shiny incisors, he was about to jump onto the table.

Gonggong watched as these two ferocious beings were about to attack and quickly shouted, “Bro!”

“Ai-yah!”

The drunk Rabbit didn’t make the leap, instead, its legs gave out with a plop, and it collapsed onto the table.

The Queen Mother of the West swayed to her feet and patted Gonggong on the head, saying, “Good boy.”

Gonggong was on the verge of tears; despite being a formidable Innate Demon God respected in all the realms of the heavens, he was now acknowledging a Rabbit as his elder brother.

It irked him, it irked him tremendously!

“By seniority, I should be his elder brother…”, Gonggong grumbled to himself.

However, as The Queen Mother of the West paused her steps, he immediately dismissed the thought.

The Queen Mother of the West walked away, and the Rabbit smacked its lips and sat up, reaching out to grab the wine jug and tipping it toward its mouth, only to find it empty.

It smacked its lips and said with disdain, “No more wine…”

Just then, a Blue-Clothed Fairy came over, placed a jug of wine on Gonggong’s table, and hearing the Rabbit’s muttering, set another jug in front of the Rabbit.

Yi Zheng’s eyes shone at the sight, reaching out to grab it, but Lu Wu was quicker to snatch it away; the four guys had been craving it and now that there was more wine, they didn’t hesitate to act. Better safe than let the Rabbit cause more trouble…

Yi Zheng glared at the four, while Gonggong burst into great laughter, thinking, “Serves you right, Rabbit, for not having any wine to drink!”

Then, Gonggong turned to take his own wine jug, grabbing at nothing, he whirled around only to see a Rabbit holding his wine jug, gulping it down greedily!

Turning back, he saw a Rabbit still sitting in front of the four Divine Beasts…

“Clone Technique?!” Gonggong instantly understood what was happening and turned to snatch back the wine jug from the Rabbit’s embrace.

The Rabbit glared at Gonggong, “What’s wrong with taking a sip for your Bro?”

Gonggong was just about to curse, but after glancing in the direction of The Queen Mother of the West, he held it back, “Ever heard of respecting the elderly and cherishing the young? I’m younger than you!”

Rabbit was stunned, then slammed the table and said, “Then shouldn’t you respect me?!”

Gonggong, so angry he wanted to flip the table, but couldn’t be bothered to deal with Rabbit, turned around and began to drink with his back to him.

Yi Zheng looked on and thought, You dare to turn your back on me?

He immediately climbed up onto Gonggong’s shoulder, snatched the wine jug from him, and tilted it back–without a single drop left!

Gonggong wiped his mouth and chuckled, “I’m the Water God! Competing with me for a drink?”

Although Yi Zheng was drunk, his eyebrows shot up when he heard this, “Nonsense! My sister said, you’re just a dam, not a Water God at all!”

Then four figures came over, and Ying Zhao said, “Exactly, exactly, everybody knows you’re just a dam, and you have the cheek to call yourself the Water God.”

Kaiming Beast nodded in agreement, “Right, right, aren’t you supposed to be plugging a leak today?”

Upon hearing this, Gonggong rolled his eyes in frustration, “Who says I’m just for plugging leaks?”

Having said that, Gonggong waved his hand, and the river water atop the mountain all surged backward, gripped in his hand.

Yi Zheng, looking at the giant water ball, muttered in confusion, “If you can control water, why do you move mountains to plug leaks?”

Gonggong sighed, waved his big hand, and the water ball landed on the table. The water ball didn’t burst but wound like a river upon the table’s surface…
Yi Zheng said, “That’s right, just like that! With that mana of yours, why bother moving mountains?”

Gonggong was silent, clapped his large hand together, and the river instantly dissipated, spreading in all directions.

At that moment, Gonggong grabbed a handful of soil and shaped it into little mountains, then began to pile them around the river channels. Soon, the scattered river water was forced back, forming a stable riverbed that meandered across the table once more.

Only then did Gonggong speak, “My mana can fix a river for a million years!”

Ying Zhao said, “A million years isn’t short. When you have time, go back and check it out, replenish some mana, and isn’t it done? Why the need to move mountains to plug leaks?”

Gonggong shook his head, “If only it were that easy…
That’s what I did at first. Wherever my divine skills reached, rivers found their places with no need for dams or terrain, and they flowed naturally.

Those little fellas who worship me called it the Heavenly River on Earth.

I was once quite pleased with myself.”

At this point, Gonggong let out a long sigh, “Once, I cultivated for one hundred and ten million years, and by the time I finished, those little ones who worshiped me… their corpses had decayed away.”

Ying Zhao asked, “Why’s that?”

Gonggong gave him a look, “Why? How short are their lifespans? Daring to call themselves a civilization after living a mere thousand or eight hundred years. Some of them had their own writing for just a few decades, merely a result of copying here and there, and they still dared to claim themselves as an ancient civilization.

These weak humans are ignorant and arrogant.

Millions of years ago, humans knew the rivers flowed by my divine skill, but to them now, it’s taken for granted as a natural occurrence.

Even some have formulated so-called natural laws, fabricating a string of reasons to explain why the rivers flow on the surface. Proclaiming that rivers will only flow in fixed areas and won’t affect human life in any way.

Thus, for better access to water sources and to harness its power, they built their cities along the riverbanks.

In the end, when the appointed time came, the divine skills dissipated, the rivers burst their banks, and nearly all perished…”

Everyone was speechless.

Lu Wu said, “Isn’t that stupid?”

But Kaiming Beast shook its head, “It’s not stupidity. If life cannot transcend one’s mortal shell to enter the God Realm and step outside of the Three Realms, then their lifespans are limited, and the extent of their power destined not to let them observe the world from a higher perspective, nor even touch the laws of the Heavenly Dao.

What they can touch are only minor daos.

It’s like this mountain we sit upon; there are humans and various beings, but all they can grasp are the rules of their small world. Yet we can freely modify the rules of that small world.

No matter how we modify them, they remain unaware that we’re changing the rules behind their backs, and simply think it’s the nature of heaven and earth changing before summarizing these patterns.

If the bottom of their well is eternally spring, would they ever know of the changing seasons?

When I watched the myriad realms, I also saw many similar situations. They seem laughable but are in fact inevitable.”

Yi Zheng said, “I’ve seen humans sum up rules and call it science. They say that science is the perpetual overturning of natural laws. Hearing what you just said, there seems to be some truth to that.”

Kaiming Beast laughed, “That’s true… among heaven and earth, the only constant is change! Even the Heavenly Dao changes!”

Yi Zheng was astonished, his surprise sobering him up quite a bit. He had always believed that the Heavenly Dao was the sort unswayed by any creature or event, maintaining its course regardless, “The Heavenly Dao changes too?”

Gonggong replied, “Heavenly Dao? What’s the Heavenly Dao?”

After speaking, with a wave of his hand, Gonggong allowed a long river to flow through his fingers, “When your power is enough, you will comprehend the rules of the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao is vague but becomes clear when broken down into countless daos.

The reason I can control all the waters under the sky is because I’ve penetrated the essence of the Water Dao and fused it within myself.

Let me put it this way, I am the Water Dao!”
