Chapter 13 Earthquakes and Islands
In the early morning, the sun was rising, and the sea was covered with a thin layer of mist, which had a hazy beauty.
Unfortunately, for Song Lingyun, who was overly excited, the beautiful scenery around him did not attract his attention. He was driving a hovercraft towards an island reef, and did not call a fisherman like he did the previous few times.
In the 410 square nautical mile fishing ground, only 7 islands and reefs and rocks can be exposed to the water after the high tide. Only one of them can be called a real island and reef, which has development value. It is now renamed Mingyue Island by Song Lingyun, which means looking at the moon and homesickness.
At high tide, about 2,000 square meters of Mingyue Island can be exposed to the water surface, and low tide can be exposed to the part of 200 meters long, with a widest area of more than 80 meters, and a total area of nearly 10,000 square meters.
This is also the area with the lowest water level and the densest islands and reefs. The average water level at low tide is less than one meter, and the islands and reefs also grow at an average annual rate of nearly 1 cm increase.
Song Lingyun estimated that if he planted the ancient tree of life here, it would be enough to expose a large coral reef to the sea level, causing the value of this fishing ground to rise significantly.
However, in order to cover the sudden rise of coral reefs, Song Lingyun said he would be sorry for the people in Tianya Town.
As soon as my heart moved, the ancient tree of life in my mind appeared in this universe, and the unfinished promotion continued. Fortunately, the moment the huge ancient tree of life appeared, the barrier of life had automatically unfolded at the same time. Except for a gust of wind blowing around, no other abnormality was caused, and there was still nothing above the sea.
Through the mysterious connection with the ancient tree of life, Song Lingyun felt that the sudden abnormal fluctuations in time and space suddenly occurred again, just like when he was fishing. At that time, it was this kind of space-time change that attracted the hook released by the nine-color crystal fishing rod, allowing Song Lingyun to harvest this extremely precious treasure tree.
In Song Lingyun's sensing, a wonderful space suddenly appeared, and then expanded rapidly like a balloon, quickly reaching the size of the life barrier of the ancient tree of life. The ancient tree of life that had just appeared in the outside world and the huge branch of the world tree suddenly disappeared again and entered the newly produced space.
This kind of change was completely beyond Song Lingyun's expectations.
With a moving heart, Song Lingyun's figure disappeared and appeared in the void with a radius of about 60 kilometers, standing on the ancient tree of life with a height of more than 1 kilometer.
"Bang!" The space shook slightly, and the expansion stopped. Then four beams of light suddenly rose in four directions at the root of the ancient tree of life, one gold, one silver, one green, and one purple.
A quarter of an hour later, the light column disappeared, and a golden pool with a length, width and height appeared at the golden column. A vertical shaft with a diameter of ten meters and a depth of kilometers appeared at the silver column. A fountain appeared at the green column, but a cluster of purple crystals like flowers and plants. These four things are the famous sun pool, the moon well, the holy spring of life, and the elemental crystal.
Among them, the golden sun pool water soaks in the sun pool can enhance the biological constitution, the moon well water can enhance the soul, the life holy spring can enhance the origin of life, improve life span and have nearly omnipotent healing ability. The elemental crystal contains pure elemental power.
Unfortunately, these four things can only be used within a 60-kilometer radius enveloped by this independent space or the external life barrier, otherwise they will automatically dissipate and decompose in an instant.
Looking at this empty space, Song Lingyun ordered the ancient tree of life to decompose the water and soil outside and fill the space. At the bottom of the space, the water and soil began to appear out of thin air, but the speed was not too fast, about 1 cubic meter of water and 1 cubic meter of soil.
After doing all this, Song Lingyun was in a dilemma again when he thought of his just-conceived ideas.
"What should I do? Do it, but the problem of planting ancient trees in life has been solved now. If you don't do it, you will lose a place to protect you in the future. However, if you do this, there will definitely be a lot of movement. It's really a difficult situation!" Song Lingyun said to himself, with a sad face.
"Do it! Anyway, if you die, I will not die. Besides, it will be no big deal if you cause a little scare at most."
Thinking of this, Song Lingyun once again used his control over the ancient tree of life to launch his own plan.
"Boom!"
At the edge of the life barrier, a loud bang came from the seabed, just like a powerful bomb being detonated. The turbid sea water first rolled up to more than ten meters high, and then sank downwards.
At the same time, a huge sound spread around. The people in Tianya Town first felt the trembling underground, and then a slight explosion came from the ocean in the distance, and everyone was slightly stunned at first.
"Earthquake! Run!" Various shouts sounded, and everyone ran out of the building quickly and hid in the open space. Even people with unknown conditions followed blindly. Only a very small number of people in the building were unmoved because they were still dreaming, not aware of the earthquake, nor did they hear the shouts of others. Australia is too vast and sparsely populated.
A seabed of about 30 square kilometers in the ocean suddenly sank dozens of meters down, while an island reef centered on Mingyue Island suddenly rose by an average of about 20 meters.
It was this twenty meters of lifting, and a coral island with a length of about 8.6 kilometers and an average width of about 1.4 kilometers rose from the sea, which was nearly 12 square kilometers. It was converted into about 3,000 acres.
At this time, it was the time of full tide, and between high and low tides, the sea level would rise and fall at a height of nearly 3 meters.
After doing all this, Song Lingyun, who had turned pale, put the hovercraft that was now located on a stone on the island into the space opened by the ancient tree of life, and then used this space as a springboard to return the hovercraft to its original place, and appeared directly in the bedroom of the villa that was still enveloped by the barrier of life.
Yun Wanbing was awakened by the noise outside. When she looked at her phone, it was less than 7 o'clock. As soon as she opened the window, she saw a pickup truck running away with electric speed, and then a beautiful tail shook and stopped.
"Gut, why are you racing early in the morning? Why is it so lively outside?" Yun Wanbing asked loudly at the middle-aged mixed-race man who was walking out of the pickup truck.
His name is Chen Gutt, his father is a Chinese descendant, his mother is a Scottish, and now he is the supervisor of Rainbow Manor. Song Lingyun just appointed him the day before yesterday. He entered the job yesterday. In half a day, he basically found out the entire manor. He had a strong working ability. He lived with his wife and children in an independent apartment near the dormitory area of the manor.
"Hurry up! Wake up the boss, and then you go downstairs quickly. A slight earthquake just happened 5 minutes ago. I wonder if there will be a bigger earthquake. Come down quickly!" Chen Gut shouted anxiously.
