Chapter 191 Guardian Tower
The waters of Xingguang Island are the safest waters currently known to Hua Li and Shi Zhixing.
Since Bai Jun is still young and has not yet adapted to life on land, they really cannot leave here for the time being, and they cannot go to the dangerous sea with little Bai Jun.
So they will stay here for a while until Xiaobai can successfully control the fish tail to transform.
She had no intention of exposing Xiao Baijun's identity as a mermaid until the little guy was able to protect himself.
Over on Starlight Island, ever since the Sky Gate lit up with six light curtains, the people who remained on the island were bounced to the edge of Starlight Island by an invisible force and could no longer enter the island.
They can now only move around on the coast of Starlight Island.
The Tianmen of Starlight Island can be said to be the lifeline of Blue Star and is protected by the Heavenly Dao. However, if someone with great luck in the Heavenly Dao wants to destroy the Tianmen, the Heavenly Dao cannot stop it, just like the catastrophe ten thousand years ago.
Given the precedent, the world's top leaders are somewhat worried and plan to build a guard tower around Starlight Island.
No one can guarantee that the lucky people ten thousand years later will repeat the same mistakes, so they have to be on guard.
Of course, not everyone can build a guard tower. Only forces or talents with complete Tianmen Xu Ming Jie Shi can build a tower around Xingguang Island.
The spiritual energy in the waters of Starlight Island is richer than in other places, and the marine resources are abundant, making it an excellent place for cultivation. Therefore, from another perspective, this is also a kind of resource division.
Hua Li and Shi Zhixing knew about the Guardian Tower Project. When they first received the invitation to the Starlight Island Conference, Xiaobaijun was at the critical period of his birth.
Neither of them had time, so the representatives who went to the meeting were Shi Mo and Ou Han.
The forces that have come to Starlight Island now include the Nangong family of the Flower-Growing Country, the Li family, the Huashi Group, the Andre family of the Sunflower Country, and the Cross family of the Rose Country.
The leader of the Huashi Group was Ou Han, who also brought along practitioners of the five basic elements of Huashi: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, saying that they were needed for building the guardian tower.
The design of the guard tower was proposed by Andre, who said it was obtained from a blessed land.
The fact that Andre's design was able to convince various countries shows that it was not a simple one.
Hua Li also studied it for several days and couldn't help but sigh that the Five Elements Guardian Array was ingeniously integrated into the design of the guard tower.
In this way, as time goes by, the longer the guard tower is nourished by the five elements' spiritual essence, the stronger the guard formation will become.
With the skills and information currently available to all parties, it is impossible to build a tower that can protect Tianmen, so the design that Andre came up with is the most suitable for the current situation.
The young master of Tianji Sect, who personally designed the guard tower, Andre, has kept his merits and fame hidden.
The construction site chosen by Huashi Group was near a small reef island. Sometimes Zhixing was in charge personally, and Ou Han brought people and materials there. They came and went in a hurry.
Half a year passed in a flash, and the construction of the guard tower was in full swing.
Xiao Baijun has grown into the size of a three or four-year-old child. The growth rate of mermaid cubs is very fast in the early stages, mainly to allow the cubs to quickly adapt to the dangers of the sea.
The little guy practices very hard every day, and now he can maintain his legs for half a day.
He spent half of the day training with Shi Zhixing in the shallow reef waters, and the other half with Hua Li cultivating his soul power.
Mermaids have strong bodies, so their cultivation speed will be faster accordingly. However, what holds them back is their soul power, which will not increase as their cultivation becomes stronger, and needs to be cultivated bit by bit.
Xiaobaijun's soul power is even weaker than that of a normal mermaid cub, which leads to slow mental development.
If Xiaobaijun was a human cub, there would be nothing strange about it, and Hua Li would educate him as an ordinary cub, but Xiaobaijun was born an extraordinary mermaid.
If you want to increase your soul power, you must practice from a young age.
Xiao Baijun's current cultivation level is the fifth level of the Spirit Refining Realm. He can easily catch sea fish below level 6, but the difficult part is cultivating his soul power.
Shi Zhixing went to the guardian tower today, so Xiao Baijun had to practice soul power with Hua Li all day long.
In the wooden house on the rocky island, Xiao Baijun was sweating profusely as he struggled to control his soul power to embroider a leaf on the special white cloth bit by bit, until the last bit of soul power was used up and the leaf was just embroidered.
The little face, which was slightly pale and covered with sweat, was relieved. The fat boy held up the embroidery cloth and said excitedly:
"Mother, mother, look, Junjun has finished embroidering."
Hua Li was lying on the chaise longue, apparently looking at a tablet, but in fact she had been keeping an eye on Xiao Baijun. When she heard his childish voice, she turned around, took the embroidery cloth, pretended to take a look, and praised:
"Not bad! Not bad! My Junjun is awesome!"
Xiaobaijun smiled and opened his little arms for a hug.
Hua Li skillfully took Xiao Baijun into her arms, wiped the sweat off the little guy, then took out a bottle of sea milk juice containing sea spirit stone energy liquid and gave it to him to drink.
Xiaobaijun loves his mother's embrace very much. It is warm, fragrant, and makes his whole body feel light, which makes him feel at ease.
Nestling contentedly in his mother's arms, holding the milk bottle and sucking sea milk juice to replenish his energy, this is his happiest and most peaceful moment.
Hua Li had an indescribable feeling about the little guy's dependence on her. Her heart was soft. She only knew that at this moment she wanted to satisfy whatever the little guy wanted.
The emotional value brought by this kind of motivated, well-behaved, and dependent child is pleasant and relaxing.
It is different from taking care of little Gu Lin, where she has to take the initiative to find ways to make the little guy happy. Although the little guy is also cute, for someone as lazy and impatient as her, it is better for others to take the initiative to provide her with emotional value.
After drinking the sea milk juice, Xiaobaijun slowly fell asleep with Huali's gentle patting and comforting. Huali did not make any other movements and continued to gently pat Xiaobaijun's back, watching the live broadcast on the tablet with headphones on.
Although she wanted to put the little guy in his crib, he would wake up every time he left her arms.
In order to let the little guy sleep well and replenish his soul power, she has to hold him in her arms all the time. She doesn't know why the little guy feels so insecure.
No one disturbs her, so she watches the live broadcast during her free time.
That’s right, it’s live streaming. Ever since the live streaming of the Snowy Secret Land, various live streaming of exploring the blessed land, exploring the wild forest, and daily cultivation have sprung up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain as soon as new smart bracelets came out.
Live streaming of exploration and experience is about to become mainstream.
Although the levels of the exotic beasts and spiritual plants that appeared in these live broadcast rooms were not high, she was often able to see some exotic beasts and spiritual plants that she had never encountered before, which was quite fresh.
Surprisingly, Hua Li saw Shen Yunyan's live broadcast room, in which she and Mu Ze were hunting exotic beasts in the Yunhua City Mountains with a civilian exploration team.
Mu Ze and Shen Yunyan have high cultivation levels, and are both handsome and beautiful. They never fail in hunting exotic beasts. They are very popular on the Yinyin platform and have a lot of viewers.
Hua Li didn't expect Shen Yunyan to take the live streaming route. She thought she would fight to the death with those children from aristocratic families.
Shen Yunyan: She was also desperate. She just wanted to fight to the death with a top-notch man like Shi Zhixing, but she just couldn't meet him. There was nothing she could do.
Hua Li held Xiao Baijun and watched the live video for two hours.
When Zhixing came back in the evening, he saw this scene and felt helpless about Huaer's indulgence of Xiaobaijun.
He felt a little jealous. He didn't want any children at all. They were here to disturb his and Hua'er's world of two.
When Hua Li saw Shi Zhixing coming back, she signaled him with her eyes to be gentler and not to wake up Xiao Baijun.
Shi Zhixing walked to Hua Li's side in a few steps, bent down, pecked Hua Li's forehead a few times, and took the opportunity to hold Xiao Baijun in his arms.
