Chapter 667 - 361: Alas, You Were Born Too Late for Me
Swoosh...
The long-lasting off-road vehicle, with an enormous dog’s tail grass on top, broke through the fierce wind and rushed towards the edge of the ten-thousand-acre medicine field.
Inside the car, Black Shoes was driving, gripping the steering wheel, his face full of excitement!
"Ying ying ying!"
Every day it had to drive far to explore the wilderness, but today was different; today, it was taking the master with it!
"Awoo awoo awoo!"
In the back seat, White Toe and Big Nose, the two foxes curled up in the master’s arms, their heads nuzzling against the master’s chest, feeling happier!
Bai Mo smiled, while gently stroking their heads and occasionally looking out the car window.
The car passed by the Purple Earth Dragon Medicine Field; Bai Mo’s Divine Sense spread out like the wind, observing the deep underground roots of the Purple Earth Dragon...
"The root system of this Super Immortal Grass is much higher at its limit."
The car passed through large newly-cultivated medicine fields; Bai Mo’s Divine Sense spread out like the wind, observing the newly planted medicinal herbs acre after acre, and their nascent root systems...
"Hmm, the Cyan Emperor was right."
The car sped along, gradually seeing new medicine fields being developed, witnessing machines opening up the land, seeing foxes busy setting up pipes and installing Ghost Eye.
The car continued forward, crossing the frontier of development, the wheels running over the bumpy or soft and hard roads, crushing through chaotic weeds, past old tire tracks, plunging into the vast wilderness.
Bai Mo’s Divine Sense constantly emitted outwards, always observing the various wild grasses in the wilderness, constantly studying their root systems.
In the wilderness, there were all sorts of grasses; even grasses of the same species could develop different root systems, more diverse and varied compared to the systematically cultivated medicine fields.
Bai Mo kept observing, occasionally frowning, sometimes realizing something, sometimes nodding, and sometimes smiling.
The fox driving changed from Black Shoes to White Toe, Black Shoes crawled from the front seat to the back, snuggled into the master’s arms, nuzzling against the master’s chest, full of happiness.
"Ying ying ying!"
Beside them, Big Nose opened a small table, poured a cup of green bean kelp sweet water for the master, and prepared a large piece of strawberry towel roll... When usually exploring the wilderness, they had to bring their own meals. After all, the wilderness was too far; bringing lunch reduced a trip back and forth.
Of course, according to Fox Mountain’s regulations, they also had to bring some tea, drinks, snacks, fruits, nuts, pastries... to replenish energy at any time.
Knowing the master would come today, they specially brought double portions of all food!
Bai Mo patted his disciple’s head, subconsciously reached out, took the cup of green bean kelp sweet water, and took a sip.
His eyes and Divine Sense always stayed outside the car window, observing each medicinal herb and root system along the way.
The car kept going, and he kept looking, his mind constantly thinking, sparks and flashes of insight flickering.
His Divine Sense saw the remnant root of a purple azalea, and he suddenly understood.
His Divine Sense saw the main root of a bamboo cypress tree, and he frowned.
His Divine Sense swept over some broken roots of tangled vegetation, and he suddenly laughed.
...
Today, the Big Nose team did not get off to search for herbs, just kept exchanging drivers, constantly driving.
After planning the route, in this vast wilderness, they drove a huge circle!
They set off from Fox Mountain in the morning, had lunch in the wilderness at noon, and by the time the canteen bell rang in the evening, they were already driving back through the twilight, with their gaze piercing through the weeds ahead, seeing Fox Mountain’s orderly medicine fields, and the fiery red figures rushing off the work bus, ready to head to the canteen for dinner.
"Ying ying ying!"
The driving Big Nose was very excited, looked back at the master and the two senior brothers, and smiled.
"Awoo?"
It sensed the atmosphere was not quite right and quickly shut its mouth.
But saw the master sitting in the back seat, his expression calm, neither sad nor happy, but his eyes seemed to sparkle with light.
Black Shoes and White Toe, one on each side, leaned against the master’s shoulders, faces also expressionless, trying hard to adjust their gaze, wanting to mimic the master’s glowing eyes.
Big Nose instinctively eased the accelerator, drove a bit slower and steadier, avoiding the pits and stones ahead in advance.
But then heard the master speak from the back, a note of confusion in his tone.
"Can this... forge a tripod?"
Throughout the day in the wilderness, he did not know how many plant roots he had seen, how many grass roots he had looked at. He had verified and pondered over the knowledge of the Cyan Emperor and the Flowing Fire Emperor.
"Both of them are very impressive.
"Knowledge is like the starry sky; the higher you go, the more you can see, the farther, the clearer.
"But the starry sky has no boundaries, and neither does knowledge.
"Life is finite, knowledge is infinite.
"Both of them are just trying to see, describe, and study knowledge in their own way and approach.
"They both have reached the heights of the starry sky.
"But..."
For the knowledge of these two, Bai Mo both partially agreed and partially disagreed.
In both their knowledge, he adopted half and added his own half, finally forming the complete picture of his Root System Domain knowledge.
"I should... be perfect.
"My knowledge is like this; it can be supplemented in the future but will not change again.
"With such knowledge, can it be recognized by the order of the Immortal Dao? Can it forge a tripod? And what kind of Great Tripod can it form?"
Swoosh...
The car drove into the ten-thousand-acre medicine field, and the road conditions improved a lot.
Big Nose still drove carefully.
Suddenly, it seemed to catch a glimpse of cyan light in its peripheral vision.
It instinctively turned its head, seeing the master sitting in the back seat, bronze text flying like butterflies in his eyes, gradually forming a Great Tripod.
The master had forged a new Knowledge Container?
Black Shoes and White Toe also beamed with joy.
