Vol.2 – Chapter 10 – Barbarian King


From a distance, Green Snake coiled on a tree, watching Feng Yaya. Her tail hung from the tree, swaying leisurely, seeming quite content.

Sometimes, she truly envied this little girl. Born into a good family, blessed with talent, and even good looks. When she grows up, she will definitely become a charming little fairy.

The Sect Leader is so powerful, at the third level of Traverse Heaven, a figure akin to a god. The Sect Leader’s wife is also formidable, having reached the Traverse Heaven realm even earlier, and is the most talented cultivator in the Qingyuan Sect…

Dragon Turtle is also talented, and is a Divine Beast.

Indeed, beasts can also be driven to despair by other beasts. The most infuriating thing is that Dragon Turtle, despite his excellent talent, is still so diligent, and has even gone to the sea to cultivate.

She would never dare to go into the sea. In her life, she had only gone into the sea twice. Once, she was beaten up by a six-star killer whale, and another time, she encountered a six-star seal.

Fortunately, she was quick to escape. Otherwise, the aftermath of the battle between Dragon Turtle and the seal could have chopped her into small snake segments.

Compared to the land, the sea is much broader, and naturally, the Exotic Beasts are more ferocious, fierce, and numerous. Green Snake decided that without the body and abilities of her ancestors, she would never go into the sea again.

The shore is quite nice too. As long as Feng Yaya is not asleep, there is nothing to fear.

Feng Yaya was only depressed for a while, then happily returned to the stone cave. She sat at the entrance of the cave, swinging her little feet happily.

Below, Green Snake was helping her adjust the saddle and telling her a story.

It was the story of the Barbarian King’s Mountain Adventure.

“The Barbarian King rode a black and white Sky-swallowing Bear, wielding a golden hammer that weighed ten thousand catties. He swept across a hundred thousand mountains, village by village, fortress by fortress, and tens of thousands of tribes all submitted to him…”

This was a story Green Snake had read in the Leaving South Court during her leisure time. It was about the romantic history of a Barbarian King in the hundred thousand mountains of the south in ancient times.

Of course, when telling the story to Feng Yaya, she omitted the romantic exploits, leaving only the Barbarian King’s conquest of the hundred thousand mountains and his battles against the heavens.

Feng Yaya was so excited that her blood was boiling. Her big eyes were shining as she looked at the small island behind her, where the roars of beasts were heard one after another.

Tomorrow, she would subdue them!

Su He’s consciousness returned to the Sense Realm, and the words on the mirror appeared.

Status: Healthy

True Blood: 89.9%

Sacrificial Bone: 13%

Internal Organs: 15%

After a day of cultivation, the internal organs increased by one percent. There were also decimal points behind, but Su He ignored them and didn’t let them show.

The internal organs would change with food, mood, and status. It was too detailed and meaningless, and it would consume Divine Sense energy for no reason.

Su He slowly opened his eyes and saw a seal sneaking up on a sea turtle not far away, ready to ambush at any time. The sea turtle was completely unaware, only cautiously watching Su He, wanting to approach but not daring to.

“Don’t kill That Turtle!” Su He said. The seal was startled, its face full of confusion, not understanding at all.

So stupid!

Su He sent a wave of water towards it, slapping it several miles away. Suddenly interrupted, the seal’s hidden breath was exposed, and the sea turtle was immediately horrified. With a bang, it swam away, with water cannons exploding under its four limbs, propelling it to flee in the opposite direction.

It didn’t dare to look back.

Su He didn’t eat turtles, nor did he kill turtles, unless they were competing for food. He had fought with other small turtles in the Listening Sea Lake before, been bitten, and also bitten other old turtles to death. But under normal circumstances, they would keep their distance and avoid each other.

After a while, the seal swam back, panting, searching for the escaped sea turtle. A toad sat leisurely on its head. Today, it didn’t have its mink vest, but a grass skirt around its waist. It had somehow gotten a pipe and was puffing away.

The red tobacco in the pipe was burning normally under the sea, and bubbles occasionally rose from the pipe.

It looked at Su He, pouting its mouth, still resentful that Su He wouldn’t sell it True Blood. It reached into its grass skirt and pulled out a greenish mud ball, throwing it at Su He.

A despicable sneak attacker!

Su He retreated, only to see the mud ball growing larger in the air, until it turned into a huge turtle shell and crashed onto the sea floor.

The turtle shell was covered inside and out with green seaweed, and a faint Dragon Turtle Suppression emanated from the shell.

“This is the molt of That Turtle. Use it for enlightenment. If you succeed in your cultivation and accidentally morph into a Divine Beast, remember you owe me a favor!”

Dragon Turtles are too stubborn and refuse to team up with him to break out. So they could only each do their own thing. But the toad didn’t have much confidence in this cultivation of Dragon Turtles – even though what he cultivated was not a living being, but a one-time, world-breaking, instantly disappearing counterfeit product.

But he still lacked confidence.

This was just an alternative path. He had been trapped in this ghost place for thousands of years, and the frog wanted to get out.

Seeing Su He’s astonished look, the toad pouted its mouth, rode the seal towards the small island. It had to find its big pipe. This dry pipe didn’t explode, and it wasn’t satisfying to smoke.

Su He came back to his senses, and the toad had already left. Only a turtle shell was left in front of him. He waved the water to form a whirlpool to clean the turtle shell. The shell revealed its original appearance, a yellowish color, with both water and earth attributes.

He couldn’t tell its original race, only a faint Dragon Turtle Suppression remained. Su He circled it a few times, but couldn’t figure out anything, so he extended his Divine Sense to cover the shell.

When in doubt, use Divine Sense. This is the basic operation of a cultivator.

The scene in front of him changed, and in his Divine Sense, Su He saw a Sparrowhawk grabbing a flower turtle, dropping it from high altitude towards a small island, intending to smash the flower turtle to eat.

Who knew that the flower turtle, instead of dying when it hit the island, found a cave to hide in. The Sparrowhawk screeched in frustration, but could do nothing and had to return empty-handed.

The flower turtle crawled into the cave and didn’t move. Its shell was shattered and it couldn’t move, so it could only quietly heal its wounds.

While it was asleep, a ray of light fell beside it, and then a Demon Morphing Fruit grew, bloomed, and bore fruit next to its mouth. It was as if the heavens were feeding it.The scene flickered, again and again, playing out This Turtle’s struggles for survival and its gradual journey on the path of the Dragon Turtle.

However, its bloodline evolution halted at sixty percent. After condensing sixty percent of True Blood, bones, and internal organs, it could no longer progress even a bit.

Until one accidental opportunity, it discovered a small world that might be related to the Divine Beast Dragon Turtle, and it tried every means to get in.

The entrance it used was not the Gate of Three Lives, but a cave. Once it entered, it couldn’t leave, and eventually died of old age in the small world, its bloodline unable to advance any further.

This is the ultimate fate of most beasts that embark on the path of the Divine Beast. Their bloodline stagnates, unable to progress any further. Being able to condense sixty percent of its bloodline, this Dragon Turtle was indeed a heaven-sent genius.

Its situation was completely different from Su He’s. Su He had already condensed nearly ninety percent of True Blood, and the shadow of the Dragon Turtle’s path in his Mind’s Eye was still there, still able to condense.

It’s just that his current flesh and bone quality was too low, and the newly produced blood was not Dragon Turtle’s True Blood. Su He needed to pause and first nourish his flesh and bones. It wasn’t that his evolutionary path had stagnated.

The evolution process of this Dragon Turtle could only serve as a reference. However, the dozens of bloodline evolution Elixirs recorded in it could be learned by Su He.

And… this small world!

According to this Dragon Turtle’s calculations, after becoming the Divine Beast Dragon Turtle, one could indeed master the way in and out of this small world, and it was the only way.

It was almost equivalent to indirectly owning a small world!

It was heart-stirring!
