Vol.2 – Chapter 44 – Meet


Water is formless, but it has manifestations.

Ice, snow, frost, clouds… are all manifestations of water. The attributes often mentioned in cultivation are metaphysical, such as the ice attribute and the water attribute, which are two completely different attributes in many techniques and divine abilities.

Su He could manipulate water, but ice was much more difficult.

The water manifestation is an auxiliary divine ability, but it has a significant role, allowing the inheritor to manipulate the water manifestation at will.

Su He was quite fond of it.

When the domain was expanded and completely merged with the small world, the small world instantly turned into a boundless sea. Above him, thunder roared and rain poured down, while below him, the sea waves rolled.

Su He didn’t know why he would form such a domain, a storm in the sea. This should be a domain formed by those who are psychologically suppressed and want to vent.

…Hmm, could it be that he had been too oppressed this year?

This small world was only in its infancy. Not to mention the sun, moon, and stars, even a live volcano had not formed, let alone life.

When the domain was expanded and merged with the small world, it was soaked in his own Dao rhyme. It wouldn’t be long before it would completely belong to Su He.

There was no rush for this. This was a testing ground. All deficiencies needed to be supplemented by Su He step by step, and while supplementing the small world, he would also understand the essence of the world.

Once he had played enough and understood enough, he could start to open up the world within the realm pearl.

As the domain soaked the small world, Su He’s consciousness fell into the Sense Realm and crawled towards the Dao Palace. The toad sat on the turtle shell and followed.

After the Dao Palace, there was a vast sea and a towering Dragon Turtle.

As soon as they entered, both the turtle and the frog were stunned.

A huge stele stood in the sea, and a newly born rule was rippling in the inheritance land.

Only one inheritance could be obtained at a time.

This rule was immediately understood when the giant stone was seen. This was a rule that didn’t need a language description.

The turtle and the frog looked at each other.

“Are the ancestors targeting me?” Su He asked. This was clearly a new rule! Bai Ling had snatched more than seventy inheritances without this rule. He had one and it was there?

It was biased…

“Nonsense! They are clearly spoiling you!” The toad gave him a white look, not knowing his blessings in disguise.

This rule was just a warning, without any punishment. It was obviously a backdoor opened by the Dragon Turtle senior for Su He’s golden finger.

This time, the inheritance Dragon Turtle did not bow its head and stoop. The first time was to take care of Little Turtle. If he wanted to obtain the inheritance later, he would have to climb up by himself.

Su He stepped on the waves and rose, the sea waves carrying him straight up to the sky. Lying between the clouds and looking at the inheritance Dragon Turtle eye to eye, the stars once again enveloped him. He saw several Little Turtles lying on the back of the Dragon Turtle – of course, this was relative to the inheritance Dragon Turtle. In fact, the largest one was as big as a mountain.

There were seventeen in total. Su He recognized the seven elders, and even the dead Bai Ling was there – even Su He was there, a small point among a group of Giant Turtles, which was somewhat cute.

This group of Dragon Turtles varied in size. The largest three, two of which Su He did not recognize, and the remaining one was Elder Tai.

Next came the second echelon, which surprisingly included Bai Ling and Huang Zu among the three Dragon Turtles, but not Grandpa Hong. Grandpa Hong was in the third echelon, and all the remaining Dragon Turtles were in the third echelon – except for Su He, who was a small one thrown at the end, looking pitiful.

These were the Dao shadows of the inheritance left here by all the Dragon Turtles from the birth of the Dragon Turtle clan to the present.

He knew the first time he came in that the Dragon Turtle could leave its divine ability inheritance here, but he didn’t know exactly how to operate it. Seeing these Dragon Turtles, he instantly understood.

With a stroke of his four claws, the sea waves carried him and he landed on the back of the inheritance Dragon Turtle, overlapping with his own inheritance Dao shadow. All his abilities flashed through his mind.

Only the Bright Mirror and the Thunderbird could be left here.

A feeling of being copied and pasted rose up. The Bright Mirror turned into a shining star and fell into the eye of the inheritance Dragon Turtle. The inheritance Dragon Turtle let out a long chant.

His blood surged, and a new thought appeared in Su He’s mind. It was a mechanical notification: a new divine ability has been integrated into the bloodline of the clan.

Inside the Mysterious Wasteland, several consciousnesses that had just fallen asleep woke up one after another, opening their mouths and chanting towards the sky.

The roar of the Dragon Turtle echoed throughout the Mysterious Wasteland.

“Hahaha! The little guy really integrated his Bright Mirror into the inheritance.” This was the meaning contained in Gu Luo’s roar.

It had been watching Su He for a whole year and witnessed the birth of the Bright Mirror. How could it not understand? The convenience with which Su He now uses the Bright Mirror is inseparable from the Dragon Turtle’s research.

This divine ability is no longer a secret in the Dragon Turtle clan. All turtles have studied it more or less. Otherwise, just relying on the techniques constructed by the elders of the Qingyuan Sect, even if they form a divine ability through the heavens and the earth, the consumption would be terrifying.

Su He prayed to the heavens and the earth to achieve the Bright Mirror divine ability. The deeper others studied, the higher the level of Su He’s Bright Mirror. The more functions it has, the less it consumes.

The long chant of the red one came: “Not bad, later integrate our understanding into it, and the Bright Mirror has the potential to become a natural divine ability.”

Natural divine abilities are not inheritances, just like Bearing Mountain, Divine Might, and Thousand Jun, they naturally awaken when the bloodline is elevated to a certain level.

This is instinct.

The suppression of the Dao Palace cannot suppress instinct.

Only the extension on instinct is the inherited divine ability. For example, Mountain God and Soul Sacrifice.

To make a comparison, walking and grabbing are the natural divine abilities that normal people develop to a certain extent, while dancing is an extension and inheritance.

The Bright Mirror neither attacks nor defends, but its potential is enormous. The help it provides for the evolution of the Dragon Turtle surpasses all other natural divine abilities.

With the Bright Mirror, the birth rate of the Dragon Turtle will increase by at least 20%.

Many Dragon Turtles have learned the Bright Mirror and condensed it into a divine ability seed like a technique, but they have not integrated it into the inheritance.

Adding a divine ability to the clan will be favored by the luck of the Dragon Turtle clan.

With the blessing of luck, the Dao path becomes smoother. As elders, they can’t snatch this merit.

At this moment, many great powers in the heavens and all realms looked towards the nearest Dragon Turtle. Just a moment ago, they found that the luck of the Dragon Turtle had increased by 20%.

This was the second time the luck of the Dragon Turtle had increased in these few days. The first time was when a new member was born in the Dragon Turtle clan.

The Dragon Turtle clan has too few members. It’s natural for the luck to increase greatly when a new Dragon Turtle is born, but it increased again in just a few days – has a new Dragon Turtle been born?

But some people also looked towards the Mysterious Wasteland, towards the Three Life Gate of Dongyun Mountain. On the day Su He crossed the Tribulation, he was suddenly sealed off by two Dragon Turtles, which aroused suspicion!

Some were happy and some were worried. The Dragon Turtle had many enemies. Not many survived, but those who did were all great powers.Thoughts were rising everywhere. The Dragon Turtle clan was too powerful, attracting countless attentions. Any slight change would prompt thorough investigation.

At this moment, countless people were mobilized.

On the back of the Dragon Turtle, Su He’s cultivation shadow was growing rapidly, seven or eight times larger than before.

The size of the cultivation shadow was not determined by the cultivation level, but by the legacy left behind! The more the legacy, the higher the quality, the more magnificent the figure.

Su He left all his two legacies behind. The Mirror of Enlightenment transformed into a star, while the Thunderbird turned into a stream of light and merged into a star in the Dragon Turtle’s eye.

This was a technique that the Dragon Turtle clan had long possessed, and the Thunderbird could only be considered a supplement.

The star gradually dimmed and could not be accepted for the time being. It had to wait for the Thunderbird and the existing technique to merge and form a new technique before it could be passed on again.

After merging with the cultivation shadow, Su He could see talismans floating on each Dragon Turtle when he looked at their shadows.

Each talisman was a summary of experience. It was like reading a book, and he could gain the experience within.

The forging of life-bound weapons

Complete understanding of the water phase

Twelve hundred methods of conception

Three hundred and sixty methods of fire divine ability combination

……

There was a wealth of information.

There were those about divine ability combinations, battle tactics, cultivation taboos. Most of them were cultivation experiences, with some odd things mixed in.

The largest talisman floating on each Dragon Turtle was the experience of opening the heavens – except for Bai Ling. There were three huge talismans on Bai Ling’s shadow, but none of them were related to opening the heavens.

This sister didn’t leave any information about opening the heavens!

The three were precautions for practicing three different divine abilities.

If she could reach the second step without leaving the experience of opening the heavens, wouldn’t she be as imposing as Taizu if she did leave it?

Su He sighed. These experiences were even more valuable than the divine ability inheritance to a great extent.

Including Su He, there were only seventeen Dragon Turtle cultivation shadows, which meant that since the birth of the Dragon Turtle clan, only seventeen… or eighteen Dragon Turtles had been born! He wasn’t sure if the largest inherited Dragon Turtle counted as one.

But only eight were alive. The Dragon Turtles were long-lived, but the mortality rate was terrifying!

“Should we accept the inheritance first, or look at the predecessors’ experience memories first?”

The toad asked Su He in his heart.

“Both!” Su He replied. The inheritance contained a lot of Dragon Turtle’s advancement experience, which could be learned to avoid detours. But the inheritance of divine abilities and techniques to form divine ability seeds was different.

The Dragon Turtle’s own divine abilities would directly merge into the body, without Su He having to worry. This time could be completely used for observation and learning.

A turtle and a frog retreated from the turtle’s back and returned to the inherited Dragon Turtle. Su He stared at the two divine abilities.

“I’ll choose Jade Truth, you grab Water Phase.” Su He said to the toad in his heart.

Jade Truth was also a divine ability, a passive support type. The Dragon Turtle’s life was so long that as long as it didn’t seek death, it would never end. Over such a long time, even the most detached temperament would gradually become still as water, or even like a stone, unmoving and indifferent to everything.

What was the difference between living like this and being dead?

The Dragon Turtle clan never pursued the Great Dao, they just wanted to live freely, and Jade Truth was born from this.

From the moment Jade Truth was learned, one’s temperament and state of mind would be preserved. If the state of mind changed in the future and something felt wrong, the divine ability could be activated and the temperament could return.

Of course, this was not omnipotent. The more it was used, the worse the effect. Strengthening the Dao heart was the key.

Su He believed that Bai Ling must have accepted this divine ability, otherwise, she would have calmed down after twenty thousand years.

A turtle and a frog, one teleported and reached out its claw, the other rammed its horn, both reaching for the two divine abilities.

In the inheritance space, there was a flash of light, and they were both thrown out. A dice fell on the toad’s head, spinning and showing two points.

An indescribable implication rose from the bottom of his heart. At this moment, his whole body was numb and itchy, even the gaps in his bones were itching. It was as if something inside him was about to awaken.

This was the feeling of a divine ability awakening.

Su He endured the discomfort and said to the toad, “You tell me, if I take the orthodox inheritance, and you snatch it, if I don’t take it, and you get it directly, is it considered a robbery?”

Every time there was one who couldn’t roll the dice, he always felt like he was losing.

The toad chuckled, “I can’t enter the Dao Palace by myself.”

This was the inheritance of the Dragon Turtle clan. Although the soul beast and its master were one, they were different after all. Without synchronizing with Su He’s consciousness, it couldn’t enter the Dao Palace alone.

“Let’s do it again, this time you pick the star alone.” Su He took the toad and rushed in. A moment later, they were thrown out. A star in the toad’s hand merged into Su He’s body, and no dice fell.

Indeed, it wasn’t so easy to exploit the bug. Unless the ancestor set a rule for the inheritance, Su He wouldn’t be allowed to get one even if he went in alone.

But that should touch the red line, violating the rules of the inheritance itself.

Technique: Fire Cloud Technique.

This was a fire technique, originally conflicting with Su He’s attributes. He didn’t intend to practice it when he took it, but just to gain a piece of knowledge for reference.

He made a mistake. He should have done this just now. He took a useless technique, and the toad snatched the divine ability.

The two looked at each other, and once again dived into the Dao Palace. A moment later, they came out again. A dice was spinning on the toad’s head.

Four points.

Divine Ability: Mountain Bearing, Mountain God.

Technique: Divine Fire Origin

The numbness and itching became more intense, and it was even painful. In just a moment, the pain gradually intensified.

Su He gritted his teeth and roared.

No wonder in ancient times, all divine beasts would fall into a long sleep after crossing the heavenly tribulation.

There was no Dao Palace at that time, and after crossing the heavenly tribulation, the inheritance would pour into the mind, and the divine abilities would awaken in the cub at the same time.

Without falling into sleep, it would be impossible to adapt.

The Dao Palace was not a natural feature of the Dragon Turtle, but was condensed by the power of an ancestor suppressing the bloodline.

The Dragon Turtle’s inheritance was getting more and more, and without control, it would be directly activated by the bloodline, and it might even awaken conflicting divine abilities. If this really happened, it would be a real injustice to die in the inheritance instead of under the heavenly tribulation.

The turtle had the Dao Palace, the dragon had the Dragon Gate, and the phoenix had the Phoenix Marrow, all of which could suppress their own inheritance.

Adding an insurance, giving the younger generation a chance to choose.

“In the short term, you can’t inherit any more, or you’ll really fall into sleep.” The toad leisurely said. This kind of sleep was not for three or five days, but at least for years.

In ancient times, it was common to sleep for hundreds of years after crossing the heavenly tribulation.

Su He chuckled, his consciousness once again entering the Dao Palace. He didn’t intend to inherit anything, but instead focused on the turtle’s back, seeking to learn from the experiences of his predecessors.

A toad emerged from the Sense Realm, landing on Su He’s turtle shell. It looked at the pouring rain, tapping on his shell, utterly bored. Runes formed on its claws, sometimes striking towards Su He’s sea of consciousness, sometimes towards itself. Then it would retract the runes and make slight adjustments.

Each rune was unique to the soul beast, containing implications of “sealing”, “cutting off”, “blocking”, and so on.

These were runes that severed the memories, vision, hearing, etc. of the two individuals.

It never wanted to acknowledge a master. A soul beast acknowledging a master meant being in a subordinate position, and the longer the time, the more it would live like its master. Shutting down these functions would be much better.

Moreover, the toad still wanted its privacy.

Of course, it could only shut down, not completely sever. If they wanted to reopen it, both parties could do so instantly with their agreement.

After all this, Su He was still not awake. The toad leaped into the Xuan Realm. It was still on an island in the sea, surrounded only by trees, without even the sound of birds.

Only the roars of the Dragon Turtle could be heard. Those who had fallen asleep were waking up again, discussing how to modify the mirror.

The toad was not interested in this. It took out an axe from its belly pocket, chopped down a large tree with a clang, and began to set up an altar on the island.

This island was now Su He’s territory in the Xuan Realm. It was unknown how far it was from the other Dragon Turtles, and it was impossible to have the ancestor pull him to the valley gathering place every time he wanted to check information.

Planning and building the Xuan Realm was the instinct and duty of the soul beast.

The toad occasionally interjected in the discussion of the Dragon Turtles, and various materials flew in from the mainland.

Crystal jade bi, summoning altar.

The toad rebuilt everything one by one. It was not a grand building like the Tai Ancestor Valley, but just a white jade pillar and a jade bi.

Enough for Su He to use.

With this pillar, Su He didn’t need the toad to lead him every time. He could split a strand of consciousness into the Xuan Realm by himself.

Until three days later, Su He woke up leisurely. He let out a long howl to the sky, his voice full of excitement.

Although he couldn’t acquire the Divine Ability for the time being, he couldn’t get fat with one bite, and it would be better to adapt to his body first.

But this sleep was a great gain!

Indeed, compared to the Divine Ability, the experiences of the predecessors were even more precious. For the future advancement and the path of opening the heavens with the realm pearl, Su He had a little clue.

But it was not enough. It would be best to have a few more prototype small worlds to experiment with. It would be even better to go to various forbidden lands to see the extreme environments of pure attributes.

Desert, magma at the earth’s core, extreme cold of the poles…

There was no hurry, there was plenty of time.

The toad sensed his awakening, jumped out of the Xuan Realm and landed on the turtle shell. It took out a small jade bi from its pocket, with characters flowing on it.

“Elder Luo wants you to take a drop of Yaya’s blood. It’s needed for the Subdue Demons chapter. He also wants you to collect the fragments of the Three Lives Gate at Dongyun Mountain.”

The Three Lives Gate was broken? Did Feng Yiju offend Uncle Luo? Su He’s eyes lit up.

Was Feng Yiju so brave?

He might not have understood before, but after seeing the experiences and memories of the predecessors – Su He felt that what Gu Luo said, a Dragon Turtle at the first level was equivalent to a cultivator at the second level.

This old turtle must be fooling him!

At least from the teaching memories of the predecessors, the Dragon Turtles fighting cultivators of the same level were really just playing. It was even easier than disciplining a child!

Bai Ling was able to single-handedly fight a group of fifth-step Subdue Demons just after crossing the heavenly tribulation, in a leisurely manner.

Su He admitted that he was not as good as Bai Ling, but he wouldn’t be equivalent to only the third step of Subdue Demons, right? He felt that he could handle three to five of the fifth-step Subdue Demons in Bai Ling’s memory without any problem.

“Let’s go!” he said to the toad, turning to swim towards the space gate.

The Subdue Demons chapter was a strange chapter, and it was not easy to change. Feng Yaya was still trapped in Bai Ling’s Dragon Turtle world. To get her blood, he had to return to Bai Ling’s world.

Su Huanian should be able to locate it.

If not, he would go to Uncle Luo.

Having a parent, he was full of confidence.

He had already left his mark in this small world, and he could leave completely. After leaving, he could go to the poles to have a look. Once he had experience, he could come back and try to build this small world.

Su He peeked out of the space gate, and the outside was still Dongyun Mountain, but it had completely changed, to the point where Su He didn’t recognize it at all. The mountains and rivers had changed shape, and the rivers had moved.

The peak where Xuanqing View was located had been cut off by a sword. There was no grass around, only snow that couldn’t melt.

Counting the time, it was just the beginning of autumn.

Su He smelled the scent of his domain from the snow.

Su Huanian, dressed in white, stood outside the gate with her Fairy Sword, letting the snowflakes flutter and fall on her. It was like a scene from a dream, Su He waking up in the middle of his winter sleep, looking through the crack in the door at the thin layer of snow covering the ice sculpture.

But she was not an ice sculpture. Seeing Su He peeking out sneakily, a faint smile rose at the corner of her mouth.

She looked at Su He, who had changed a lot after a long time. One was no longer the Sect Leader’s wife, and the other was a Dragon Turtle that all the heavens and worlds had to look up to.

“Congratulations.”

The Fairy’s lips opened slightly, and she said softly.
