PNB Chapter 276: Ba's Daughter
Chapter 276: Ba's Daughter
He was behind the girl during the day, and his heart sank as he watched the grass and trees wither wherever she passed.
Did I create a monster?!
After running for a distance, the girl finally stopped and squatted on the ground crying.
Bai Tian stood behind her, blocking her, his spiritual sense constantly probing her body. It was very strange, the power in her body was changing.
At first, the compressed power Bai Tian gave her was very gentle. Although most of it was the red power of the sandworm, it was more fire-oriented. Bai Tian even thought that she might be able to breathe fire in the future.
But for some reason, her power began to mutate constantly, becoming more and more destructive... Oh, and her power is very similar to Bai Suo's power before!
This is strange. It wasn't like this just now, how come it changed all of a sudden?
After waiting for a long time, the girl gradually calmed down, and then Bai Tian called out. The girl stood up, looking at Bai Tian with red and swollen eyes, and she actually knew to cover her chest with both hands.
Bai Tian glanced at him and said nothing, then walked into the forest. The girl hesitated and followed Bai Tian naked...
A month later, by a small river in the forest.
During the day he sat by the fire, and next to him squatted a girl in tiger skin clothes, who was roasting meat.
After a month of research, Bai Tian still couldn't figure out why the girl's power had changed.
When she releases her power, she can suck the vitality out of plants, causing them to wither.
"Hao, eat meat." The girl picked up a skewer of grilled meat and handed it to Bai Tian.
Bai Tian shook his head slightly: "You eat it."
During the past month, Bai Tian hadn't mentioned anything about the sandworms or the tribe to her. He just tried his best to teach her Mandarin, because he knew she was hurt...
Watching the girl eating meat, Bai Tian hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What's your name?"
The girl lowered her head with a touch of sadness, then raised it again and smiled. "My name is... well, Nüba, which means daughter of Ba."
Bai Tian was slightly stunned: "The ba you are talking about, is it that very large bug?"
"Yes, our tribe calls it Ba." Nuba's eyes were filled with hatred. "My mother was once offered to Ba, but she escaped. At that time, I was already in her belly."
"So, the tribe always thought I was bad. When my mother died, they gave me to my mother."
As she spoke, Nvba lowered her head and tears rolled down her cheeks. "I didn't do anything wrong, why did you give me to her..."
Bai Tian frowned and asked, "Does your tribe often send people to the Ba? Are they for it to eat?"
"No," Nvba wiped her tears. "Baba doesn't eat people. She kills many powerful beasts, and then our tribe can eat meat. But every once in a while, Baba needs a woman... The tribe says that Baba needs a woman to cry out to the heavens. I don't understand what crying out to the heavens means."
"I've seen it happen. Baba would wrap a woman with something red and then take it back. I don't understand and I'm fine."
Bai Tian frowned: "You just said you don't eat people..."
"Ba didn't eat people, but just turned into sand."
Damn, isn’t that still cannibalism?
So, the giant sandworm wants to use human women to transfer power?
Could it be that it is taking advantage of women’s femininity?
The sandworm's power is very strong in the fire element, and its yang energy is quite abundant. Could it be that because of this excess yang energy, it needs to absorb the yin energy of a human woman every once in a while?
If so, then this sandworm has a very high IQ and is already transforming into a monster.
Perhaps, there are many powerful beasts in this world that have evolved into monsters, such as Bai Ze, who can also be considered a monster.
But this method of the sandworm is a bit scary. How did it know how to use humans?
Shaking off his thoughts, Bai Tian softly said, "Nu Ba, I'm leaving now. What are your plans for the future?"
Nvba lowered her head and said, "Can you take me away? I don't want to go back to the tribe."
Bai Tian was a little hesitant, mainly because her power was a bit terrifying. Bai Tian was not sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to take her back to Yancheng.
Forget it, don't think too much about it, just take her back to Yancheng and talk about it. If it doesn't work out, let her enter the Taoist sect and let Donghuang take care of her...
So after a while, Bai Tian took Nv Ba and flew towards Yancheng. On the way, Bai Tian began to patiently teach Nv Ba to practice.
But during the day, he discovered that Nüba had no talent for cultivation, and she didn't even understand what meridians were.
One day, Bai Tian mentioned the magic to Nüba, and she unexpectedly understood it immediately. In less than ten days, Nüba actually developed a magic spell on her own, desertification!
She actually knows how to control her power and turn the land into desert in an instant!
In essence, it actually sucks the vitality of the grass and trees on the land, and then uses its strength to smash the stones and other things, all relying on its destructive power.
Bai Tian named this spell "Drought"...
Not long after, Bai Tian discovered that Nv Ba's power had a very obvious flaw: she could not fly.
No matter how Bai Tian taught her, she just couldn't fly. She had enough strength and could concentrate her strength under her feet as Bai Tian had taught her, but she just couldn't fly.
This made Bai Tian feel that the power differentiation in this world was becoming increasingly clear, and the power of a single attribute was increasing...
Not long after, daytime approached Yancheng.
During the day, he discovered that during the time he was away, many more tribes had appeared near Yancheng.
There are really more and more people on this vast plain, and it feels more and more civilized.
With so many people around, it was no longer convenient to fly with Nüba during the day, as it would be too scary if others saw them. So the two chose to walk.
However, during the day, they soon met Taoists, two men riding tigers.
The two were quite cautious at first, but when they saw it flying during the day, they let down their guard.
I asked two Taoists during the day and found out that the Taoist sect had moved to a new location.
Donghuang actually listened to Bai Tian's advice and moved the Taoist gate away, and is now rebuilding it.
Not only the Taoist sect, Yancheng also sent a team to rebuild another city, and the leader of the team was Ji Xuan!
"Shaodian City Lord ordered Ji Xuan to lead about a thousand people from Yancheng out to the south and have them build another city there."
"The leader of the Donghuang Sect led the Dao Sect northwards and chose a place called Mingshan, where he is currently rebuilding the Dao Sect..."
Listening to what the two said, Bai Tian couldn't help but sigh that Shaoding really knows how to do it!
Ji Xuan's prestige in Yancheng began to rise due to his creation of magic. Moreover, the news of Ji Xuan's four-year agreement with Chi You had spread throughout Yancheng and Heitian City.
Shao Dian's intentions in letting Ji Xuan lead the team out of Yancheng at this time were not profound. Overtly, it could be to train Ji Xuan and continue to enhance his prestige; covertly, it could also be to temporarily allow Ji Xuan to leave Yancheng to prevent Yancheng from falling into a struggle between magic and physical techniques.
Of course, no one knew what Shaoding was thinking during the day.
After a brief deliberation, he led Nüba northwards during the day...
That day, Bai Tian and Nv Ba were walking towards the north.
A gust of wind suddenly swept through, and then the sky began to darken, with dark clouds surging everywhere, and it felt like it was about to rain heavily.
Nüba suddenly pointed to the distance and exclaimed, "Hao, look! The sky is leaking!"
I saw it during the day, too: the dark clouds rolling in the distance were torn apart, and a beam of light shone down from the sky. The sunlight that shone down was tinged with purple, and it was particularly bright from a distance.
This scene is so familiar, I feel like I've seen it before...
