The stone statue opened its eyes, a glint of spiritual light flashing within. Starting from its eyes, the petrification receded, gradually restoring its flesh and blood.
The single horn atop its head flickered, seemingly transmitting information outward.
After a long while, the petrification completely vanished, transforming into a living body that moved its joints and stood up.
Staring into the chaos, it was lost in a daze.
It was only after an unknown amount of time that it struggled to utter a word: “Turtle!”
If Su He were to traverse the chaos and arrive here, he would recognize at a glance that this being, once a stone statue, was a member of the Yuan Sovereign clan recorded in the annals of the Zhenxie Dao Palace, the very same who had attacked the Dragon Turtle and sealed his past life’s body.
The stone person stomped his foot, and the stone drum emitted a dull thud, ready to pilot the altar to shatter the chaos and head in Su He’s direction.
But at that moment, a divine sense came through: “If you don’t want to die, it’s best not to provoke that turtle.”
The stone person instantly turned his head, only to see a young man stepping on a bronze mirror, tearing through the chaos and entering.
The bronze mirror was covered with talismans that appeared and disappeared, ensuring he would not get lost in the chaos. A chain of iron extended from his palm, reaching into the chaos with no end in sight.
“Seal… Emperor… Palace!” Having been petrified for too long, the stone person spoke with difficulty.
“Yuan Sovereign clan!” The young man from the Seal Emperor Palace smiled slightly. Seeing a living member of the Yuan Sovereign clan was a rare occurrence; the last time he had seen one alive was just a fleeting glimpse when he had first established his domain.
The two looked at each other for a long time before speaking simultaneously:
“Seal Yin!”
“Yuan… Geng!”
After exchanging names, the two looked at each other again. After a long silence on the stone drum altar, the person from the Yuan Sovereign clan spoke first: “You… obstruct me… from hunting… the Dragon Turtle?”
He had been dormant in the chaos of the Fengshen Great World, unaware of the passage of time. Today, he was awakened by the stirring of the turtle and snake’s breath, immediately sensing the presence of a young Dragon Turtle battling deep within the chaos.
He was about to launch an attack but was stopped by someone.
Seal Yin shook his head slightly, a smile on his face: “I’m stopping you from courting death! If it weren’t for our ancestor diverting the attention of the Azure Thunder, you would have been detected and suppressed the moment you revived!”
“Stop me? With… you, a mere… jailer?”
Seal Yin’s face fell, his smile vanishing in an instant, and without another word, he stomped on the bronze mirror, which instantly enlarged and shone brightly, covering Yuan Geng from above.
In the blink of an eye, he was captured within the bronze mirror.
Yuan Geng let out a roar, and a single horn emerged from the mirror, as if trying to pierce through and break free. Seal Yin snorted, flicked his wrist, and the iron chain wrapped around the bronze mirror. Talismans flashed on the chain, completely sealing the mirror.
“Merely residual poison, daring to leap about like maggots in a gutter, and yet you have the audacity to spout nonsense!”
These guys have been petrified for too long, their minds not clear, not even sure who the enemy is. I come to save you, and you call me a jailer?!
Not even aware of your own capabilities, such a worthless being doesn’t need the Azure Thunder; the Dragon Turtle in the chaos can suppress you with a single stamp!
Having done all this, Seal Yin glanced in the direction of Su He, slapped the bronze mirror, and an arrow appeared on its surface. Following the direction of the arrow, he plunged headfirst into the chaos.
In the Fengshen Great World, a bolt of lightning struck down, shattering the iron chains that filled the sky.
An elderly man tumbled out from behind the shattered chains. It was the former Xuanjing King who had used a tablet to fend off the mountain god seal of the Azure Thunder.
The old Xuanjing King fell out, suppressed his shock, tried his best to calm his chaotic breath, and laughed heartily as if joking: “Azure Thunder, my friend, you are indeed formidable. I am no match for you, I am ashamed.”
This Azure Thunder had disappeared for two years, and now with a snake on its shell, its cultivation level had advanced so much. Previously, he could still withstand it, at least able to retreat gracefully in front of the Azure Thunder, but now he was completely outmatched.
He joked, but the Azure Thunder was not joking.
“Seal Bu Si? Die.” The Azure Thunder spoke indifferently, as if mentioning something extremely ordinary. Lightning scattered like rain, sealing the four directions of the void, and the mountain god seal struck directly at the old Xuanjing King.
Suddenly appearing and immediately attacking. Unable to win, yet shamelessly treating it as a joke.
Who gave you the confidence to think that the Dragon Turtle would play along with you?
The fusion of the Candle and the Sophora caused trouble, Su He was bullied by Feng Chaofei, and now I’m full of anger with nowhere to vent! You’re seeking your own death.
Seal Bu Si’s expression changed, and the tablet suddenly enlarged, transforming into a golden bridge in front of him.
Boom!
The mountain god seal fell, and the golden bridge cracked inch by inch, bursting apart with a bang. It reformed behind Seal Bu Si, taking the shape of a tablet again, but it was now dim and lusterless.
Seal Bu Si spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, which ignited upon hitting the ground. His expression changed drastically as he looked at the opposing Thunder Turtle: “Azure Thunder, my friend, it was just a friendly spar, why resort to lethal force?”
Azure Thunder snorted, took a step forward, and several thunder dragons emerged from the void, charging at Seal Bu Si.
“Did you think I wouldn’t notice the commotion in the chaos just now?” You show up neither early nor late, but just when my Dragon Turtle clan is in trouble, you appear. Trying to create a diversion? With your little cultivation level, do you think you can deceive me?
Azure Thunder struck without mercy, the three thunder dragons exploding simultaneously, and in an instant, the edge of the chaos was obscured by a mass of thunder serpents, nothing visible.
Only beneath the thunderous explosions could one hear the dragon’s roar, the iron chains swinging, and the mountain god seal falling. Moments later, the dust settled.
Under the immense pressure of the green-gold seal, Seal Bu Si lay limp like a dead dog.
Outside the Fengshen Great World, in a distant void, a flash of mirror light passed by, and Seal Yin appeared. He looked back at the Fengshen Great World with a look of terror.
An elder appeared beside him: “Young Prince, we must leave quickly, this place is not safe to linger!”
The Xuanjing King was not known for his combat prowess, but as a legitimate prince of the Seal Emperor Palace, he was not an easy opponent, a being who suppressed the myriad worlds. Although he could not defeat the Azure Thunder in the past, he was not so helpless as to be unable to escape.
Something is wrong with the Dragon Turtle!
It has advanced! This was not good news for the Seal Emperor Palace.
The elder pulled Seal Yin, and they instantly broke through layers of space, fleeing as if in panic.
Just as the two had left, the Azure Thunder had already appeared where they had been, its Turtle Eyes piercing through layers of void, landing on Seal Yin, and then glancing at the bronze mirror beneath his feet. With a snort, it raised its claw to tear through space and capture the two, but moments later, it lowered its claw.
A thought flickered in its eyes, and the dragon whiskers swayed slightly. An untraceable talisman fell onto the bronze mirror.
The iron chains sealed on the bronze mirror contained an aura that was very familiar to him, bearing a three-part resemblance to the single horn he had obtained in the Seal Emperor Palace, but it was more primitive.
The being inside must be related to the Yuan Sovereign clan. Azure Thunder was curious to see what the Seal Emperor Palace was up to.
Fleeing, Seal Yin frowned deeply: “Eunuch Mo, the Azure Thunder won’t chase us, will it?”
The elder leading him shook his head: “Most likely… not! The old servant has shattered the void with the Scorching Sun Shears, and the Dragon Turtle will not be able to clear the chaotic space for a while.”
Seal Yin fell silent for a moment, so certain, yet why hesitate when you speak?
He tapped the bronze mirror beneath his feet: “Eunuch Mo, since I established my domain, I have encountered two members of the Yuan Sovereign clan, both of whom seem to lack complete spiritual intelligence. Does Eunuch Mo know why?”
Eunuch Mo shook his head: “The old servant is just a steward eunuch, how would I know these things? But according to the old servant’s memory, six thousand years ago, these people were still of sound mind. If Young Prince wishes to know what has changed, why not ask the old king?”
Seal Yin remained silent, his father would never tell him these things!
Compared to his father, he had a better relationship with Uncle Xuanjing King. This time, he had followed Uncle King to fulfill the three-month appointment, only to encounter the Yuan Sovereign clan being unsealed and revived.
What was meant to be a meeting turned into an attack, with Uncle Xuanjing King creating a diversion to attack the Azure Thunder, allowing him to take the opportunity to abduct a member of the Yuan Sovereign clan.
Now that he had captured a member of the Yuan Sovereign clan, but Uncle King had been suppressed by the Azure Thunder, he was unsure how to explain himself upon his return.
The two fell silent for a moment, swiftly traversing space, approaching the nearest Instant Great World. There, the Hengyu clan had a space channel, making the return to the Seal Emperor Great World much easier.
Eunuch Mo had a golden pair of scissors above his head, cutting through space as they fled rapidly, only to hear a sigh from behind: “Since the two of you are unaware of what happened six thousand years ago, would you mind handing over this member of the Yuan Sovereign clan to me?”
The two were startled, only to see a stunningly beautiful woman hanging behind them, who had been following them through countless spaces without their knowledge.
Dressed in red like a bride from the mortal world, her beauty was unparalleled, but it sent chills down their spines.
Yunmengze, Ji Feixue!
“Young Prince, retreat quickly!” Eunuch Mo’s face changed drastically, stepping in front of Seal Yin, the Scorching Sun Shears turning into two rays of sun-like golden light, entwining and snipping towards Ji Feixue.
Ji Feixue chuckled lightly, raising her delicate hand, and with a single touch, the two rays of golden light instantly shattered.
The sky-reaching golden light burst forth from the shattered Scorching Sun Shears, turning everything within sight golden. Divine sense and breath were completely submerged.
Eunuch Mo pulled Seal Yin and immediately fled.
But Ji Feixue was unhurried, pressing down with her hand, and the powerful sun-like light was compressed into a small point, solidifying into a pure gold bean, which she plucked and placed into her waist pouch.
There were at least a dozen similar beads in the pouch, each with a different aura.
After suppressing the sun-like light, Ji Feixue pointed down in the air, and Eunuch Mo and Seal Yin, who were trying to escape, were suddenly frozen, stuck in a spatial rift.
Ji Feixue waved her hand, and Eunuch Mo’s expression froze, his entire body shattering like porcelain. Seal Yin’s face changed drastically; a being of the fifth level of Traverse Heaven, in front of Ji Feixue, had no chance to resist!
He tried to speak, but found he could not make a sound.
Without Ji Feixue making a move, the bronze mirror beneath Seal Yin’s feet had already flown towards her. With a light touch, the iron chains on the mirror receded, and Yuan Geng roared as he jumped out, only to be flicked by Ji Feixue’s finger, a green light landing on his forehead, instantly lifeless.
Only then did Ji Feixue turn to Seal Yin: “A descendant of the Yu Rong family? I owe Yu Rong a gambling debt, so I won’t kill you this time, consider it repayment.”
She raised her hand and pointed in the air at Seal Yin. A green light landed on Seal Yin’s forehead. His face grew even more terrified.
“You want to probe my memory? Impossible!” Seal Yin roared. The memories of the Seal Emperor Palace’s royal bloodline could not be probed, and if they were searched by an irresistible force, they would self-destruct.
Seal Yin screamed in horror, but he did not notice any traces of his memory being searched. Instead, the green light was dissolving, erasing all his memories from the moment he encountered the Yuan Sovereign clan in the chaos until now.
The methods left in the bloodline by the Seal Emperor Palace to protect the memory were utterly useless!
In an instant, Seal Yin’s face went blank, unconscious.
Ji Feixue casually threw the bronze mirror towards Seal Yin and disappeared with a turn of her body.
In the void, Ji Feixue looked at her palm and smiled sweetly. The method of probing and erasing memories from Bai Ling was indeed extraordinary, even the defenses of the Seal Emperor Palace’s royal family could not stop it.
No wonder she could cut off her own memories and still be unaware of it.
“Next time we meet, I’ll kill you, okay?” Ji Feixue chuckled as if Bai Ling was right beside her.
After laughing, Ji Feixue looked at Yuan Geng floating beside her, a smile appearing on her lips again. She had only intended to leave something on her little husband to guard against Feng Chaofei, but she did not expect to have such an unexpected gain.
She pointed at Yuan Geng, and talismans entered his body, slicing him as if he were being dissected, his body shining with light, revealing information like a compass.
Her little husband’s Mirror of Clarity was quite useful!
It’s a pity that the fool only kept the Mirror of Clarity in his Sense Realm to gather dust, not knowing that such a treasure could be modified to become a tool for probing others, and even used to analyze laws and the Great Dao!
Possessing a treasure mountain without knowing it, she had already modified the Mirror of Clarity, and his would advance as a result, but when would he discover such a function?
Ji Feixue’s phoenix eyes fell on the information revealed by Yuan Geng, not a panel like Su He’s Mirror of Clarity, but complex and difficult to understand information.
After thoroughly analyzing Yuan Geng, the Yuan Sovereign clan’s methods and Divine Abilities were only glanced at by Ji Feixue before she looked deeper.
Unable to see the divine soul, the Yuan Sovereign clan only had a physical body, no divine soul. They were different from Divine Beasts, which merged divine soul and body into one; they purely lacked one.
Ji Feixue had known this for a long time. As the Mirror of Clarity operated, she analyzed the essence and directly observed Yuan Geng’s origin.
This origin seemed as if it had been torn in half.
He had half of his existence cut off, but the Yuan Sovereign clan was special; unless it was a special method, even if the origin was reversed and cut, they could still revive.
Just like Feng Yiju, who had been killed several times by the Xuantian Sect Leader, he could still revive unharmed. That was only because he had a single horn from the Yuan Sovereign clan on his divine spirit, possessing only part of their characteristics.
The pure-blooded Yuan Sovereign clan was far more tenacious than Feng Yiju. But this one, having half of his existence cut off, had not recovered. This was not normal!
Moreover, because half of his existence was cut off, his Spiritual Intelligence and Cultivation Level were all affected. The Yuan Sovereign clan member in front of her was completely useless.
Ji Feixue looked at the scar on his origin, gently brushed it, and a green light fell. This green light was very similar to the one that erased Seal Yin’s memory.
Both were techniques from Bai Ling.
The green light fell, and an anomaly appeared on the cut of the origin.
“Time power!” Ji Feixue murmured. This power of time was not strong, only a few thousand years at most. But time was a forbidden area for cultivators.No one can manipulate time, not the Sealing Emperor Palace, not the Ten Great Immortal Sects, not even the Four Divine Beasts!
This was the first time Ji Feixue truly witnessed the condensation of time!
It wasn’t because her cultivation level was profound; a mere glance could cause one to lose themselves in the cycles of time.
Ji Feixue’s delicate fingers tapped in succession, and the power of time writhed, transforming into a white turtle claw. In a moment, it changed again into a slender, fair hand.
Bai Ling!
Ji Feixue’s breath hitched, and she let out a wry smile. It really was you, you little rascal! Gazing at the hand that was beautiful to the extreme, Ji Feixue understood.
Bai Ling had cleaved the existence of the Yuan Zun clan in half 6,000 years ago!
Ji Feixue couldn’t comprehend such a method. If one were to describe it, it was as if Bai Ling had struck all members of the Yuan Zun clan with a single sword 6,000 years ago, splitting them in two. Half of their bodies continued to exist through time until now. But the other half remained in the past, never reaching the present.
Of course, this was just a metaphor, not that their bodies were literally split in two, but rather that half of the existence of the Yuan Zun clan was severed.
How was this achieved?
6,000 years ago, it was precisely when Bai Ling broke free and willingly entered annihilation.
Did she sacrifice herself to sever the Yuan Zun clan?
Stop joking! Setting aside whether one can manipulate time, that girl would never be so noble! With her temperament, as long as the people she cared about were not in trouble, what did it matter to her if everyone else perished?
She wouldn’t bat an eyelid if the world were to be destroyed, not to mention feeling any sorrow. The affairs of the Yuan Zun clan were of no concern to her.
What exactly did Bai Ling do 6,000 years ago? Slaying the Yuan Zun clan was probably just an incidental act.
Could that girl really intervene in time? Could she withstand the backlash of time?
That guy couldn’t have gone overboard and sealed himself 6,000 years in the past, could he?
But could a person achieve such a feat?
Even a turtle couldn’t!
Theoretically, such a thing doesn’t exist!
In ancient times, there were powerful beings capable of creating a space-time domain where one day outside equaled one year inside. That was already the limit!
Theoretically, Bai Ling couldn’t possibly do it, but deep down there was a strange feeling that she might have guessed correctly, that girl might have really sealed herself 6,000 years in the past…
She was so capricious.
Ji Feixue stood there, stunned.
…
In the depths of chaos, in the territory of the ancient Sophora.
Su He slowly opened his eyes. Time was indistinguishable in the chaos; he didn’t know how long he had been here. The surroundings were twisted, and the ghostly serpents were endless, impossible to kill completely.
Still too weak, Su He thought silently. If the range of the Chaotic Blades could be expanded a bit more, the effect would be better!
Su He lay on the Sophora’s turtle egg, looking around.
This place was where the ancient Sophora refined the chaos, originally connected to the abundant Fengshen World. It had been unmanaged for two years, and the connection was once again tainted by chaos.
There was not a single noise here, as if sound itself did not exist. The mountains were desolate, the earth was ravaged with gorges.
Chaos had just been turned into a world, showing its primal state. The essence of the world’s origin was extremely rich. A single breath filled one’s belly with the essence.
Unfortunately, the creation of a world carried a strong sense of self, and this essence was most suitable for the ancient Sophora. Su He’s absorption would be much less effective.
He looked thoughtfully at the chaos around him.
He couldn’t leave this place; he could only stay within the range of the Chaotic Blades. But right above Uncle Sophora’s head was chaos. If he could open up the chaos there, he should be able to absorb the world’s essence suitable for him.
At the same time, it would stimulate the Chaotic Blades without affecting their effect. Uncle Sophora’s giant egg was still within the range of the Chaotic Blades.
However, a Divine Beast needed a Heaven-Opening Artifact to open up chaos. The Heaven-Opening Artifact taken out of the inner world was an ethereal existence similar to an artifact spirit. It needed to be refined into a physical form.
The Daoist Canchen had already designed the blueprint, and there was even a foolproof tutorial for sacrifice and refinement. It was just that Su He lacked the materials and had not started.
After all, the blueprint from head to toe was refined with Divine Beast materials.
Such things, Su He couldn’t get his hands on.
He thought randomly, his gaze turning to the cliff behind the ancient Sophora’s giant egg, where a Cave Mansion was located, with the luster of treasures frequently appearing.
This was one of the many treasure vaults of the ancient Sophora.
“Uncle Sophora, lend me some materials, I need to refine a Heaven-Opening Artifact!” Su He patted the turtle egg beneath him and whispered.
The turtle egg did not respond.
Su He’s domain flashed, condensing into a domain avatar, flying towards the treasure vault. Moments later, he returned with a pile of treasures and landed in front of Su He.
What a pity, the Dragon Turtle clan originally had the custom of supporting their juniors. Even if he acted stealthily like a thief, no dice would descend upon him.
Inside the Mountain Sea Mysterious Realm, Su He also had the treasures of a small world supported by his clan, of which only a part had been used. He could also view and borrow the treasures of other Dragon Turtle elders. He just had to return them after reaching adulthood.
Borrowing with the intention of returning was not considered stealing, so no dice would come.
The toad jumped out from the Mysterious Realm and completed the materials needed for the Heaven-Opening Artifact. Lying bored on the turtle egg, it said to Su He, “When are we going to let Ya Ya go out and conquer the world? Life is too boring like this.”
It was more interesting to accompany Ya Ya in battles across the lands, being the Prime Minister during those days was the most joyful time in its thousands of years.
If only it had taken the opportunity to rebel when Ya Ya transformed…
Eh? The toad’s eyes suddenly lit up. As a soul beast and master in one, it was Su He, and Su He was it. Su He was now Ya Ya’s legitimate father.
Then it…
The Supreme Emperor?!
Theoretically speaking, a legitimate Supreme Emperor, no doubt about it!
The toad shrank under Su He’s shell, avoiding the Chaotic Blades, its eyes shining brightly.
Su He looked at the assorted materials in front of him, closed his eyes in contemplation, and went through the blueprint designed by the senior Daoist Canchen twice in his mind, confirming there were no mistakes, before he began refining the artifact.
Various materials were taken into the inner world, either placed in the extremely cold abyss or thrown into the majestic volcanoes of the inner world. The toad appeared on its own, monitoring the changes in the equipment.
The blueprint was for the Heaven-Opening Pen to be refined for the inner world, and the refining process naturally had to be carried out in the inner world, so that it naturally carried the Dao rhyme of Su He’s inner world, and could merge with the Heaven-Opening Pen.
The leg bone of the Kui Ox was used for the shaft, and the hair of the Greedy Wolf for the tip.
The Kui Ox leg bone was thrown into the volcano, and the essence of the Heng Gua world poured in, transforming into the power of the volcano. The magma surged to the sky but was forcibly suppressed by Su He, preventing the energy from dissipating.
The Kui Ox was special; materials from the Kui Ox Divine Beast occasionally appeared in the myriad worlds, but a living Kui Ox Divine Beast had never been seen.
It was probably already obliterated in the river of time.
Refining in the inner world did not require exotic flames, just an ordinary volcano, but it used the power of the entire world to refine.
Time passed bit by bit, unaware of the years or seasons, chaos never counted the years, and it was impossible to judge the length of time. Su He only left a trace of consciousness in the inner world, mainly relying on the toad to control.
Su He’s attention was outside, with the Chaotic Blades fluttering and chopping at the sneaky ghostly serpents.
After an unknown amount of time, a muffled drum sound came from the depths of chaos—there was no distance or direction in chaos, as long as it wasn’t in front of you, any place was the depths of chaos.
Su He’s eyes suddenly opened wide.
In the midst of chaos, where everything was void, there could actually be a sound!
This sound was not right!
With the drum sound, the ghostly serpents formed from twisted and sneaky auras, as if hearing a command, swam towards the direction of the drum sound.
Did Uncle Lei think of a way to completely eradicate these ghostly serpents?
Su He’s eyes brightened, but then he shook his head. Uncle Lei would not enter this chaos; he would not approach Uncle Sophora and Uncle Candle’s eggs.
Within the Mountain Sea Mysterious Realm, Su He let out a long chant. He reported the situation to Qing Lei. Here, the waves rolled beneath him, and he rose on the waves, rushing straight towards the source of the drum sound.
In a desolate void, Qing Lei spanned the starry sky, facing Ji Feixue.
The monitoring runes left in the Sealing Yin Bronze Mirror fell on Ji Feixue, so he naturally came to check the situation. He could also ask Ji Feixue to help interrogate Feng Bu Si.
When it comes to interrogation, a madman is always more skilled than a normal person.
But before the work could begin, within the Mountain Sea Mysterious Realm, Su He’s long chant had already passed over one after another.
Qing Lei looked at Ji Feixue in surprise: “The kid from the Sealing Emperor Palace that you let go has entered the chaos of the Fengshen World.”
Ji Feixue looked up.
Qing Lei’s figure flashed, and he had already disappeared into the starry sky.
A stone drum altar that could attract ghostly serpents was something he had to take seriously.
…
In the midst of chaos, a young man around 22 or 23 years old stood still. The iron chain in his hand hung in the chaos.
When Su He arrived, he and Su He were in opposite directions, head down and feet up.
In chaos, there is no direction, and any angle feels like the right way.
Black clothes, iron chains, the royal bloodline of the Sealing Emperor World.
Su He glanced at him, his gaze falling on the stone drum beside him.
Four stone serpent statues, with wings spread and tips touching, heads slightly bent, facing in all directions. A stone drum was placed on top of the serpent heads.
It was a drum, but it also resembled an altar.
Every movement of the altar emitted a muffled drum sound, and from all directions in the chaos, ghostly serpents formed from sneaky auras continuously surged in, merging into the altar.
“Who are you? Did you create these ghostly serpents?” Su He narrowed his eyes, a divine sense transmitted out, while in the Mountain Sea Mysterious Realm, he relayed the situation to Qing Lei.
“Sealing Emperor Palace, Feng Yin! Please make way, fellow Daoist,” Feng Yin replied with a very poor complexion through divine sense.
Previously, he accompanied King Xuanjing to meet with the Dragon Turtle clan’s Qing Lei in the Fengshen World, but the Yuan Zun clan suddenly revived, forcing King Xuanjing to divert Qing Lei’s attention alone. He was tasked to take away the revived members of the Yuan Zun clan.
He clearly remembered stepping into the chaos on the Streaming Light Mirror, but he woke up in a distant void and lost a whole segment of memory.
This shock was no small matter. The Sealing Emperor Palace highly valued the memories of the royal lineage; in special circumstances, they would rather have their clan members self-destruct than risk losing secrets.
A segment of memory was erased, and if the Sealing Emperor Palace knew, Feng Yin didn’t know what would happen to him.
Returning to the chaos of the Fengshen World, he followed the mark of the Streaming Light Mirror and entered, only to see an altar and no sign of the Yuan Zun clan members.
Touching the altar lightly, it immediately emitted a drum sound. Immediately after, a group of ghostly serpents surged over, and a Dragon Turtle appeared.
An obstacle!
Within the Mountain Sea Mysterious Realm, Qing Lei’s long chant came: “Sealing Emperor Palace, Traverse Heaven fourth step, you can’t beat it yet, don’t linger in battle, snatch the altar and come out immediately. I’ll meet you outside the chaos.”
“Please make way, fellow Daoist,” Feng Yin’s complexion grew even worse, and his divine sense turned a few degrees colder.
“This way is blocked, go back!” Su He displayed an arrow above his head indicating that the path behind him was blocked, guarded by something.
“Fine!” Feng Yin replied, not bothering to argue, and immediately turned to leave. With each step, the stone drum altar emitted a drum sound.
After the third step, Feng Yin suddenly turned back, the iron chain thrusting like a spear, suddenly stabbing towards Su He: “Still trying to deceive people!”
This Dragon Turtle asked about the ghostly serpents as soon as it appeared. These ghostly serpents came at the sound of the drum, and there must be a connection with the Yuan Zun clan.
He also lost his memory here; how could this Dragon Turtle be innocent?!
Both acted simultaneously. The moment before Feng Yin thrust out the iron chain, Su He had already opened his mouth to roar, a Dragon Turtle’s roar.
In chaos, sound was sometimes present and sometimes not, the roar was not heard, but the divine might was unmistakable. It suddenly dispersed the iron chain and slammed towards Feng Yin.
Immediately after, the Mountain God Seal followed, shining with golden light, almost blending with the chaos, and slammed towards Feng Yin.
Feng Yin stomped backward, the iron chain whirling like a whip, one whip striking the Mountain God Seal, and both the Mountain God Seal and the iron chain exploded simultaneously.
Su He’s divine machine flashed, closing in, and in the midst of chaos, heavy rain drifted, turning into thousands of pounds, smashing down.
Feng Yin’s wrist vibrated, the shattered iron chain disappeared, and another iron chain appeared, waving a series of afterimages, blocking above his head. Separating the heavy rain.
Sometimes the sound appeared, the rain hitting the iron chain emitted a crisp collision sound, clanging like a pipa.
Feng Yin’s expression was gloomy.
Divine Beasts belonged to chaos, fighting with a Divine Beast in chaos, especially one from the Four Divine Beasts like the Dragon Turtle clan, was too disadvantageous.
The Dragon Turtle was unaffected by chaos, the more it fought, the more it adapted to chaos, even feeling like a fish in water. He, on the other hand, was like a blind man, relying entirely on divine sense. Divine sense could also be hindered by chaos.
It was impossible to entangle with a Divine Beast in chaos!
Feng Yin licked his lips, immediately trying to pull the altar and leave chaos. As long as he left chaos, just a Dragon Turtle at the first level of Heaven-Opening, what did he have to fear?
The iron chain reached out, only to find that the altar had disappeared!
Along with the altar, the spirit snake on the Dragon Turtle’s back also disappeared. The spirit snake took advantage of the battle to steal the altar!
A series of dense drum beats came from above. The ghostly serpents chased the drum beats and surged towards the depths of chaos.
Feng Yin’s face changed drastically.
Following the drum beats, he chased after them, but a Dragon Turtle raised a huge wave in front of him.
“Seeking death!” Feng Yin’s face darkened, the Yuan Zun clan’s affairs were a matter of life and death, who cared if you were a Dragon Turtle or not?How could the Dragon Turtle compare to the nobility of the imperial Feng Huang clan?
When I arrived earlier, I had confirmed that Qing Lei was not in the Fertile Divine World; he was probably led away by Uncle Xuan Jing Wang. It is rumored within the clan that Uncle Xuan Jing Wang and Qing Lei have always been adversaries, and it’s normal for them to fight for three to five months without a victor.
Before they return, I must regain my memory!
Feng Yin’s Iron Chain Whip struck out like a dragon, each lash like a black dragon, thunderously smashing down.
Su He’s divine intellect flickered, his expression solemn.
Is this the fourth step of the Traverse Heaven technique from the Feng Huang Palace? Each strike contains the full force of the Mountain God Seal, six times as powerful.
I can’t take it head-on!
Su He fought while retreating, with the Chaos Serpent coiling around the Stone Drum Altar, heading towards Qing Lei.
In truth, the Chaos Serpent couldn’t stray too far from the Dragon Turtle. It always clung close to the Turtle’s body, but with chaos in between, the sounds seemed to come from ancient times, indistinguishable in distance.
If Feng Yin’s Iron Chain Whip were just a few zhang longer, it would have struck the Chaos Serpent.
But Feng Yin’s foundation was too solid; the length of the chain was neither too long nor too short, just enough to strike Su He with maximum force.
Su He’s divine intellect sparkled, relying solely on his increasingly adapted sense of the chaos, darting left and right. Feng Yin pursued relentlessly, not willing to fall behind by even a half step.
The chase went on for an unknown length of time. Suddenly, the space opened up, and a cacophony of sounds burst forth—thunder, floods, waterfalls, earthquakes…
The Dragon Turtle, fleeing in panic, lost all sense of direction and burst out of the chaos.
Heaven aids me!
Feng Yin was overjoyed, but before he could even laugh out loud, he saw a mountainous paw press down, and then he was plunged into a haze, knowing nothing more.
Lightning struck Qing Lei’s body, transforming into a wave of thunderous water, surging past. The sneaky Teng Serpents that followed the Stone Drum were instantly annihilated.
Qing Lei looked down at the Stone Drum Altar, his eyes filled with an indescribable meaning.
The drumming from the altar was incessant.
Su He let out a breath, lying at Qing Lei’s feet, the Chaos Serpent returning to his body, also looking at the altar.
But they couldn’t make anything out.
Lacking knowledge, I don’t even know from which angle to analyze.
After a while, Su He looked up and asked, “Uncle Lei, are there still such sneaky creatures in the chaos?”
“There are, but it’s not a big deal; they’re all rushing this way,” Qing Lei replied.
Su He then looked at Feng Yin, suppressed by Qing Lei, and after a moment of silence, he asked, “Uncle Lei, how does the Dragon Turtle’s Heaven-Opening Realm correspond with a cultivator’s realm?” Gu Luo had told him when he first crossed the Tribulation, but it always felt different in reality.
Feng Yiju was at the third level of Heaven-Opening; if not for his undying trait, Su He could kill him without injury. Feng Yin was at the fourth level of Heaven-Opening; if not for the chaos obstructing him, Su He couldn’t defeat him.
Is the gap between the third and fourth levels of Heaven-Opening for cultivators really that big?
Qing Lei chuckled, “Are you asking about the cultivator’s division method, or the Dragon Turtle’s division method?”
“Huh?” Su He was taken aback.
Qing Lei had already begun speaking, “If we go by the Dragon Turtle’s division method, you are equivalent to the first step of a cultivator’s Traverse Heaven. If we go by the cultivator’s division, your combat power is equivalent to the third step of Traverse Heaven for a young genius.”
“?”
Su He’s confusion grew.
Qing Lei laughed, “The Dragon Turtle is uniquely blessed, with a Turtle Origin that is nearly inexhaustible and an inner world that is vast and powerful. If it cannot be invincible in its own realm, then what is it?”
He continued with a smile, “Right now, you can easily suppress anyone at the first step of Traverse Heaven, no matter how many there are. But you can’t do the same at the second step. For ordinary second-level Traverse Heaven, it’s still manageable, and suppressing seven or eight at once is not a problem.
But for a freak like your Fairy Su, just two or three could entangle you, even outperform you with experience. You can’t suppress them en masse, so in the eyes of the Dragon Turtle, you’re only at the first step of combat power.
But to ordinary cultivators, you can also defeat a mid-to-high level third step of Traverse Heaven, which makes you a genuine third step.”
He looked down at Su He with a teasing expression, “Little guy, you’re still very weak. Don’t think that killing a Teng Serpent or a Flame Crow makes you powerful. You’re just an average youngster. You’re far from being a true powerhouse!”
