Water was unpredictable, not to mention fixed.
It was often said that water flowed downwards, and water from places with more water would always flow to places with less water.
Pan Gu world was a great world with abundant natural resources. Yin and Yang were balanced, the five natural powers were balanced, and the world was stable. Because of the balance of the five natural powers, the water power in Pan Gu world was naturally less dense than that in Pan Jia world.
Therefore, after the portal was activated and the two-way passage was opened, the water power from Pan Jia world naturally seeped into Pan Gu world.
As long as Sky Pillar remained intact, the natural screen of Pan Gu world would remain undamaged, like an incomparably strong defensive screen. Even if the moisture from the outside world tried to seep in, it would be blocked by the natural screen of Pan Gu world.
Gong Gong knocked Buzhou Mountain down and destroyed the core of Pan Gu world. The natural meridians were disordered, and the power of the world screen was weakened by over ninety percent. The water power from Pan Jia world swept over in an unstoppable way. Once it sensed the power of Pan Gu world in the portal, it easily flew into Pan Gu world.
The density of water power in Pan Gu world had been rising speedily.
Not many clouds could be seen in the sky, but the density of water power in the air had been rising speedily. Within only a couple of days, even in caves and houses, the air had become moist. Visible, tiny water droplets had been ceaselessly oozing out of the air, dripping on the ground.
Both Midland and the four wastelands were experiencing a heavy rain. Every corner of the world was raining.
The heavy rain ruled over everything. The water on the ground was more than a foot deep, the turbid waves were rolling in the river, and the water on the mountain peak was ceaselessly flowing. Among the luxuriant plants, except for those ancient trees that were over a thousand years old, the other slightly younger trees had all their branches broken by the rain, leaving only their bare trunks pointing towards the sky.
Ji Hao returned from the heaven without accomplishing anything. He reported to Emperor Shun about what happened in front of the heaven, then bid farewell to Emperor Shun and rushed back to Yao Mountain territory.
In Pu Ban City, Ji Hao couldn't do much by himself. As for how to deal with this sudden rain and how to deal with Gong Gong, who was hiding in the heaven, Emperor Shun and the group of leaders and elders had to make decisions.
Ji Hao was an earl and a marquis who had just started his own clan. He just had his own territory and a large number of people. Therefore, his responsibility was to stay in Yao Mountain City, pacify people, and defend against natural disasters. This was what the leaders of small to medium-sized human clans should do when a natural disaster came.
Returning to Yao Mountain City at his highest speed, Ji Hao went to the portal to check.
He already had a feeling that this rain might have something to do with the portal in Pan Jia world, but he didn't have any proof.
He dared not to tell Emperor Shun and the others about his speculation, because doing so would only bring him a whole load of troubles and accusations.
Besides, even if he closed the portal in Yao Mountain City, so what?
In the territories of the non-humankind, there were twelve other portals, and the one belonging to the Dishi Family also led to Pan Jia world.
If Ji Hao guessed correctly, the other eleven worlds given by Dishi Cha might be the same as Pan Jia world, worlds with an absolute advantage of 'water power'.
If that was the case …
Ji Hao was struggling. If that was the case, did the humankind have to start a war against the non-humankind in order to stop this heavy rain? Did the humankind have to rush into Liang Zhu City and destroy the twelve portals?
How could it be so simple?
The golden bridge was incredibly fast. Ji Hao silently descended from the sky, leaving a dark golden beam of light in the air. It went straight through the Heaven and Earth great formation and reached to the portal.
The portal was working normally, and the light column reaching straight into the sky was much steadier than before.
Ji Hao circled around the portal and sensed for a while. Indeed, a tiny amount of watery mist seeped into Yao Mountain City through the light column. But the amount of watery mist that seeped into Yao Mountain City every two hours could only fill a small pond at most, and could never cause such a great rain that swept across Midland and the four wastelands.
Knitting his eyebrows and raising his head, Ji Hao ignored the greetings from his people in Yao Mountain City and flew swiftly up along the light column.
Along the light column, Ji Hao reached over a thousand miles high and stood on the spot where the light column reached into the sky. He released his spirit power and sensed the surrounding area. The watery mist released from the light column was a bit heavier than down below, but not by much.
The space around Ji Hao flashed across, then Shaosi twisted the space and came to Ji Hao. She asked with a gentle voice, "What happened? It's been raining heavily these days. This year, except for the area covered by the Heaven and Earth great formation, all crops in the other areas are gone. "
"Do we have enough food?" Ji Hao knitted his eyebrows and asked Shaosi while suppressing his worry.
"Not enough." Shaosi shook her head, also worriedly looking at Yao Mountain territory, which was being swept by the heavy rain.
Yao Mountain territory was a new territory. Compared to those old human clans, Yao Mountain territory was much weaker. In recent years, the food produced by Yao Mountain territory was barely enough for people living in Yao Mountain territory, and they had to purchase large amounts of food from the outside world.
Some food was stored in the storage of Yao Mountain City, but this food could only feed people in Yao Mountain territory for a month at most. After that, the food would run out completely.
The sky above Yao Mountain City was shrouded in colorful mist. The Heaven and Earth great formation was fully activated, covering the area with a radius of thirty-thousand miles. Not even a single drop of rain could seep in. However, outside the area covered by Yao Mountain City, the heavy rain had been pouring, and turbid waves had been rolling. The main rivers of quite a few large rivers were already flooded, and from time to time, meters tall waves would surge up to the land.
Boom! Right in front of Ji Hao's eyes, the foundation of a hill, which was by the river, was washed away by the waves of the river. The three to four hundred zhang tall hill fell into the river, completely blocking the river.
A loud rumbling noise could be heard without an end. The agitated river was now blocked, and instantly, the water surged out from the river and spread out on both sides. The turbid waves destroyed the woods and submerged the farmlands. A few villages, which were near the river and had already been evacuated, were washed away by the flood.
"Hmm, at least the food around Yao Mountain City is safe now."
Ji Hao looked at the flood bumping against the defensive screen created by the Heaven and Earth great formation. The colorful mist drifted in the air, and the hundreds of meters tall waves slapped on the defensive screen, but failed to cause any threat to the great formation.
Ji Hao raised his head and stared at the sky for a while. Then, his body suddenly paused.
What he saw in Pan Jia world was happening again in Pan Gu world.
In the air, a small cloud quietly floated, and under the cloud, a fist-thick stream of water poured down along with a rumbling noise.
It was no longer a raindrop, but a water stream.
Ji Hao popped out his eyes. Closer and closer, more and more clouds like this appeared in the sky. Within a blink of an eye, over a thousand small clouds silently gathered.
