Don’t Mess with that Turtle
Chapter 308 - 308 38 Long Moon Mansion_1

308: Chapter 38 Long Moon Mansion_1 308: Chapter 38 Long Moon Mansion_1 Green Snake really tilted her head and thought about it seriously.

“The moon?”

Su He: “…”

I’m just asking, I don’t have the ability to pluck it down.

Stars are still feasible; fly out of the Mystery Huang World, pick a small one and bring it back.

I truly can’t do the same with the moon!

Green Snake couldn’t help but laugh; she felt that she might really need a moon!

But not the actual bright moon, rather something akin to a domain or a Dharma presence.

Green Snake didn’t know if she had really received an inheritance, lacking the ancestral memories passed down by the former White Snake.

She just inexplicably knew her own cultivation path.

Red string of fate, deciding marriage bonds!

With the bright moon emerging, shining high in the sky, bonds were not limited to living creatures anymore.

It was probably like this:

You strike someone with a palm, and their Myriad Phenomena Tower falls for you, no longer able to seal you away.

You’re peerless in charm and beauty, and the opponent’s Ten Directions Heavenly Thunder falls in love with you, refusing to harm you even slightly…

This is not causation; it’s causality, it’s law!

Of course, this is just a theory, like “if you’re strong enough, a punch can shatter time.” Whether it can be done or not is another matter, but it sounds impressive!

Green Snake explained a bit.

Su Huanian slightly frowned: “The Path of Incense?”

It sounded just like that.

The Path of Incense was too unpredictable; few formal sects chose it.

Even if they did, it was only as a supplement.

How could a cultivator entrust their path to the multitude of common folk?

Green Snake shook her head: “It’s only possible to draw strength from marriage bonds; it’s not a must to arrange them.

Even if I find a forest, where a hundred beasts mate, naturally, there will be marriage bonds for me to draw from.

Moreover, I can also absorb spiritual energy to cultivate!

It’s not necessary to rely solely on the power of marriage fate.”

Su Huanian understood.

This ability had great potential, and the future was promising.

He wondered if Green Snake was evolving into a special species; if so, the future of this species was beyond estimation.

“I’m good now, shall we go back?” Green Snake looked around and asked, the corpse of Soaring Snake still lying aside, as fresh as it was two months ago.

If Soaring Snake was dead, then Ya Ya needed to hurry back to prepare for the next Transforming Beast, the time was running short.

Her knowledge was still at the point before Soaring Snake’s death.

Su Huanian chuckled lightly: “Ya Ya’s origin has been resolved, no need to worry.

If possible, we should stay a few more days.”

Ya Ya hatched, leaving the shell behind.

The Dragon Turtle shell was unique; it was actually absorbing the Tao Rhythm left by the predecessors who preached the Tao.

The shell might be of great use to Ya Ya.

If possible, Su Huanian wanted to wait until the shell had absorbed all the Tao Rhythms before leaving, which wouldn’t be too late.

Green Snake looked at the shell, the aura on it was all too familiar.

She looked at the shell and then at Su He.

For a moment, not knowing what she thought of, she showed a dumbfounded expression.

“Ya Ya…

Dragon Turtle?” She looked at Su He.

What have you done to Ya Ya?

Su He with pride on his face: “My daughter!”

Green Snake was silent for a long time, then shook her head and chuckled lightly: “Ya Ya really has good fortune.”

Dragon Turtle, huh!

And it can be artificially created?

After the shock, Green Snake smiled, “I just need to solidify my bloodline.

It’s the same wherever I am.”

After the Heavenly Tribulation incident here, the heaven and earth mended themselves, and with the Phoenix Clan and Dragon Turtle preaching the Tao, the Tao Rhythms were long-lasting, perfect for comprehending The Great Tao.

A crescent moon rose up, the sky spotted with stars.

Green Snake coiled up, imprisoning half of her human body in the center as she faced the crescent moon and practiced her breath control.

Su Huanian also sat cross-legged, absorbing and healing his injuries.

His injuries this time were severe, and after two months of recuperation, he had only managed a preliminary treatment to temporarily suppress the wounds.

It would need at least five or six years of treatment.

For cultivators who can fly through the skies and have long lifespans, it’s beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

But if they get injured, it’s also beyond what ordinary people can understand.

Especially since healing can’t happen overnight; it needs to be gradual and progressive.

Su He, with the body of a Peacock, perched on a tree branch, his body glittering.

This was a sign of cultivating the Gluttonous Eating Method.

Initially, the Gluttonous Eating Method was just a magic skill.

After achieving Dragon Turtle’s initial selection, it directly condensed into a Divine God Power Seed.

As a magic skill, the Peacock True Body naturally could practice it.

Moreover, with the experience gained from the Dragon Turtle, the cultivation would be twice as effective with half the effort.

In just two or three days, preliminary effects could be seen, allowing the swallowing of some low-grade treasures.

The Peacock cried out, and an illusory Gluttonous Dragon Head shot out, swallowing a pile of treasures prepared by the Toad.

With a bulging belly, it remained motionless on the branch.

Moments later, the Peacock leaped, and upon touching the ground, transformed into the Dragon Turtle True Form.

True Yuan cultivation must reveal the true form; the Dragon-Turtle body can only cultivate Turtle Element, and the Peacock True Body can only cultivate Phoenix Yuan.

True Yuan cannot be cultivated in the background.

But the flesh body can!

The Peacock True Body swallowed a huge amount of Heavenly Material Earthly Treasures and then transferred them to the background for slow absorption, freeing Su He’s Dragon Turtle True Form to do many other things.

His consciousness sank into the Tao Palace, and like the Toad, he selected Divine God skills one by one.

This time facing Feng Yi Ju, there was a serious problem: Su He did not have the means to Reverse Cut Root Origin, he couldn’t cut Life Bound Stars.

To Su He, Stepping Sky Two-fold Star Life Realm cultivators seemed immortal.

Turning them to ash was useless.

Even if he kept killing, it would not be possible to whittle away a Stepping Sky Two-fold to death; it would only consume the Life Bound Star’s power, lengthening the revival time with each death and weakening them upon each return.

That was it, they remained immortal!

Many of the Dragon Turtle’s Divine Skills had the effect of Reverse Cutting Origin, which could be attempted after the Dragon Turtle Opens the Sky.

For example, the Lei skill Heavenly Punishment!

Five Elements Divine God Thunder, inherited from all Dragon Turtle lineages, can kill with Heavenly Punishment, cutting straight to the Origin.

However, Su He was more optimistic about “Divine God Attraction.” It wasn’t an attacking type of Divine Skill but a supportive one.

Once inherited, Divine God Attraction would guide the Power of the World, subtly altering the Dragon Turtle body.

Subsequently, every strike dealt would have the effect of Reverse Cut Root.

But this Divine Skill was difficult to advance; before it reached full maturity, the effect of the Reverse Cut Root was very weak.

Only children have to choose one, I want them all!

Su He could now merge two or three Divine Skills into his body at the same time, and the resulting burden was still within his endurance limit.

There was no need to fall into a deep sleep.

The Toad cooperated, pulling down both the Divine Skills and Magic skills at the same time.

Divine God Attraction ×3

Heavenly Punishment ×4

Blood Curse ×2

The Blood Curse was a means for the Dragon Turtle to mark its enemy, visible only to the Dragon Turtle itself.

Once marked with the Blood Curse, not even reincarnation could remove it.

As three Divine Skills integrated into his body, Su He swallowed a few treasures and slowly closed his eyes.

He did not fall asleep, but was feigning sleep while comprehending the Barbarian King Refining World Technique.

The sounds of insects and birds chirped in his ears, and the new moon toyed with the stars above, as he gently breathed in the refined scent of Su Huanian mixed with the aroma of fresh grass.

A hundred miles away, a blizzard raged, and the sound of snow weighing down and breaking branches could be heard.

It made this place seem even more tranquil,

In the middle of the night, Su He slowly opened his eyes.

The Toad leaned against him, its head nodding off sleepily.

Green Snake remained coiled unchanged, while Su Huanian had already stopped meditating and was reading a scroll by the moonlight.

Noticing Su He awake, she discreetly put away the scroll.

But Su He, with sharp eyes, noticed the words “Transforming Beast Guide” on the scroll.

It wasn’t the version adapted by Gu Luo, but the common one.

His eyes lit up, and he was instantly overjoyed.

Su Huanian paused briefly and said, “It’s just cross-referencing, for reference.”

I understand, I understand!

Su He was not foolish; he did not dwell on this issue.

“Senior Sister, what do you think about directly building the Tao Palace in the Chaos?”

They would have to choose a Suppression Land anyway, so why not carve out a Tao Palace right in the midst of Chaos?

The Chaos was quiet, a favorable place to avoid most troubles.

Su Huanian, recalling how Su He had previously asked her where she would like to live, had a flicker of strangeness in her eyes: “That would be fine, serene and carefree.”

Ordinary Cultivators did not have the ability to carve out their own abode in Chaos; otherwise, given the nature of Cultivators who dislike trouble, they would have done so long ago.

Su He chuckled, “Let’s carve out a sea in the midst of Chaos.

Senior Sister is of the Water attribute, and practicing in the sea will yield twice the result with half the effort.”

The sacrifice of the Dot Ink needed to be moved up on the agenda.

The carrier for the Opening Heaven Divine Pen should ideally be something that didn’t require borrowing the strength of others.

Su Huanian glanced at him and said, “Fine!”

Huh?

Huh huh?

Su He’s eyes widened.

“What the hell are you huffing for?

Stupid guy!” the Toad’s voice rose from the bottom of Su He’s heart.

…

The eggshell absorbed the Tao Rhythm rather swiftly, and in just over ten days, it could no longer draw any more.

The Flying Boat soared into the sky, and everyone returned to East Cloud Mountain.

In those few days, Heavenly Punishment had not completely merged, but Divine God Attraction and Blood Curse had already been fully integrated.

Heavenly Punishment was cast out four times, not to increase speed, but because its integration was extremely slow—it must have been the power.

Innate power ×4.

Once out of the place of the Tao’s discourse, the entire Mountain Forest was wrapped in a mantle of silver, as if they had stepped directly from summer into winter.

This was likely the last snow of this winter season.

Actually, by the calendar, it was already springtime.

The temperature hadn’t warmed up much, but after the heavy snow, it wouldn’t last much longer, at most another two or three days before it melted away.

The farther south they traveled, the more suitable the temperature became, and a dash of Jade Bamboo greenery in the distance caught their eyes.

From within the bamboo forest came the roar of a bear.

When he could no longer see snow, when everything around him was lush green, that feeling that the whole world was welcoming him back rose up again.

Su He said to Su Huanian, “There is a hidden abode here.

Senior Sister, would you like to explore it?”

The Sun and Moon Yin Yang Jade Pendant was still in the External Space.

The Jade Pendant acted as a key, very peculiar.

During the Heavenly Tribulation, when he intended to entrust Ya Ya to safeguard it temporarily, the key could not be handed over.

With the key on him, upon reaching this place, every blade of grass seemed to welcome Su He.

It seems the abode is no ordinary one.

Su Huanian lightly shook her head: “Not at this moment.

It is not wise to create complications.”

Su He had just undergone his Tribulation, Green Snake had just advanced her bloodline, and Su Huanian herself was injured.

It was not the time to explore a Cultivator’s abandoned abode.

Exploration could wait until everyone’s Boundary Status was stable and injuries were healed.

Su He nodded and was about to leave on the Flying Boat when a joyful laugh came through: “Master, Madam, have you returned?!”

Su He looked down and saw amidst the forest below, a middle-aged Butler dressed man, excitedly waving his hand.

“Hurry!

Hurry!

Master and Madam have returned from their travels.

Open the mansion, prepare the bath, slaughter the chickens and cattle, to cleanse Master and Madam from the dust of their journey!”

“Little Fourth Son!

Aren’t you moving the Master’s Flying Boat into position?

Are you waiting for the Master to control it himself?” the Butler shouted, and a young servant suddenly appeared on the Flying Boat, knelt down, and joyfully said, “I welcome Master and Madam back to the mansion.”

As he appeared, the Flying Boat seemed to be uncontrollably drawn by something, struggling to descend toward the ground.

Zing!

A sword cry rang out as Su Huanian’s Immortal Sword flew out, slicing the servant in front of her into two halves.

In the path of cultivation, when faced with an unexpected event, without a need for consideration, cutting it down with one sword is never wrong.

In a short while, another cheerful servant boarded the Flying Boat, knelt down with a joyful face, “I welcome Master and Madam back to the mansion.”

It was the same servant with the exact same gesture, unaffected by the corpse of the previous servant on the deck.

As if he couldn’t see it at all.

Strange!

“Roar!” With a Divine God Might Roar from Su He, the servant and the Butler on the ground both exploded simultaneously.

But then another Butler appeared, yelling behind him, “Little Fourth Son!

Aren’t you moving the Master’s Flying Boat into position?

Are you waiting for the Master to control it himself?”

Another joyful servant boarded the Flying Boat, thumping his head on the floor, “I welcome Master and Madam back to the mansion…”
