Don’t Mess with that Turtle
Chapter 324 - 324 49 First Encounter with Phoenix Chao Fei _1

324: Chapter 49 First Encounter with Phoenix Chao Fei _1 324: Chapter 49 First Encounter with Phoenix Chao Fei _1 The crescent moon rose, casting a serene tranquility across the land.

The snow on East Cloud Mountain had melted, revealing the scars of a battle from two years ago.

At this moment, the tender grass was not yet dense enough to conceal such traces.

A flying boat streaked across the sky, trailing a brilliant azure glow.

On the flying boat, Su He lay quietly, looking up at the sky.

Elder Qiao stood at the bow, gazing at the landscape below, which turned into fleeting shadows.

Su He was returning to East Cloud with him.

Elder Qiao was to take care of Qingyuan’s affairs, and it so happened that Su He was going to East Cloud to refine the portal of her small world.

She was moving!

After several months of practicing the Barbarian King Refining World Technique, it was impossible to refine an entire small world, but she should be able to refine a portal.

The flying boat moved swiftly, piercing through clouds and fog.

Qiao Changlun looked at the scenery outside the boat, his sleeves fluttering in the wind, striking the gunwale with a clear sound.

He glanced slightly over the gunwale and let out a sigh—this flying boat…

Was expensive!

He couldn’t afford it even if he sold everything he had, and neither could his fellow disciples, even if they had to bleed for it, with no place to buy such a thing.

This flying boat must be custom-made, with the deck’s sunbathing platform seemingly designed especially for the turtle species.

Just looking at it lying there made one feel comfortable.

The boat had forsaken all functions, except for its speed—which was incredibly fast!

They arrived at Qingyuan in the blink of an eye; Elder Ge greeted Su He, stepped with his right foot, and the Immortal Sword flew out.

He leaped up, mounted the sword, and descended from the boat.

Su He turned the flying boat around and headed towards the small world.

Outside the small world’s portal, Chou Nu’er and Jade Bead stood side by side like a pair of identical twin sisters, eagerly awaiting at the entrance.

Guarded by the Boundary Stone, only the two of them could come and go from the small world as they wished.

Seeing Su He’s flying boat, they immediately became joyful, bowing deeply in salute from afar.

Su He descended from the flying boat.

“Divine God!” Both exclaimed in unison, their voices indistinguishable from one another, making it difficult to tell them apart.

“You two go inform the sacrifice preparations.

I will refine the entrance to the cave dwelling and then move on,” she said.

Was the Divine God going to suppress Chaos?

The light gleamed in their eyes simultaneously.

Advancing the small world into Chaos was the only true goal.

Merely relying on treasures for enhancement would never be enough to reach the size of the neighboring small worlds, not to mention the worlds of other Sovereign Divine Gods.

With excitement, they both saluted and hurried back to the small world.

Refining the world’s entrance would inevitably involve disturbances in its internal space.

Preparations were needed in advance to prevent the formations within the small world from shaking and causing accidents.

Su He took out a fragment of the Two-Realms Battlefield Gate from her External Space.

Closing her eyes, she extended her Divine Sense to carefully sense the entrance before her.

The entrance to the small world was different from ordinary space rifts.

It was not a product of unstable space causing a fracture but an overlapping entrance to another space embedded within East Cloud Mountain.

Su He needed to peel it from the space above East Cloud Mountain and merge it into the fragment of the Two-Realms Battlefield Gate.

Then, she could take it anywhere she wished, unfolding it wherever she pleased.

The Power of the World flowed sequentially into her body.

Su He’s Dragon Horns pressed forward, touching the entrance to the small world as Divine Sense and the Power of the World surged in.

Carefully manipulating the space.

The Barbarian King’s Refining World Technique was not the least bit barbaric; on the contrary, it was incredibly delicate.

The more Su He learned, the more she realized the innate talent of the king who emerged from the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

Even the seemingly rugged battles and conquests he waged were finely calculated beneath their rough exterior.

The title “Barbarian King” was not self-proclaimed, to lead people astay.

It was clearly a slanderous label placed by others with malice.

Her domain expanded and compressed at the entrance to the small world.

The misty rain scattered like a spring shower, moistening every corner of the entrance to the small world.

After some time, the entrance slightly swayed, like thin ice melting into a trickling stream, flowing into a fragment of the Battlefield Gate.

The fragment appeared to be enveloped in a milky substance, gently rippling, as a powerful sense of space emanated from it.

Su He’s grasp of the Barbarian King Refining World Technique was still somewhat weak, just barely managing to refine it.

A slight mishap could easily cause it to burst open.

Not an explosion per se, but any significant disturbance would cause the piece to revert to its original state as a space entrance.

The space fluctuation was too severe, so the stone fragment couldn’t be stored in External Space.

It had to be carried on her Turtle Shell.

With the small world removed, what remained was the lonely and broken gate of the Transcendental Battleground.

The gates of the Demonic Realm and the Stepping Sky Realm were still intact.

The Sealed Emperor Great World could emerge at any moment.

After some thought, Su He exhaled a Mountain Divine God Seal, which spun down onto the gate, releasing the immense momentum of the Dragon Turtle from the die.

This die was in a state of readiness, and triggering it would result in the stamping of a Mountain Divine God Seal.

Its placement here primarily served as a warning.

The momentum of the Dragon Turtle infused into the Two-Realms Battlefield would make anyone with ideas weigh the pros and cons of breaking through and entering East Cloud Mountain.

On either side of East Cloud Mountain lay Xuan Tian Gate and Yunmeng Ze, especially the Yunmeng Dragon Palace which was even closer.

An attack could come in an instant—after all, the Sealed Emperor Great World wouldn’t foolishly advance uninvited.

Su He, with the small world entrance fragment secured on her back, turned towards the flying boat.

But at that moment, from behind came a raspy female voice: “Who would have thought that a member of the White Spirit Clan would turn out to be a foolish turtle with a woman’s kindness.”

The voice was abrupt, without any forewarning!

Behind Su He was the gate of the Two-Realms Battlefield; there was not a soul for dozens of miles around, nor had she sensed anyone coming from the Two-Realms Battlefield.

Someone had approached without a sound.

The last time someone had gotten close to her in this manner was the Xuan Tian Sect Leader Yin Yuan.

But the old man had deliberately made noise when he approached to attract Su He’s attention.

The person behind you has no manners!

Qing turned around, only to see an enormous wutong tree suddenly appear behind him, with a phoenix standing quietly upon it.

Qing’s heart tightened abruptly, and his entire body suddenly tensed, with scales tightly clustering together as the muscles under his dragon horns tensely rose to wrap around them.

Phoenix Chao Fei!

The infamous traitor of the Phoenix Clan, the culprit who killed Qing’s mother, whose bloodline was that of the Peacock True Body.

The one who shattered Uncle Lei’s Boundary Pearl.

What was she here for?

To hunt down his second incarnation?

It wasn’t until Qing turned around that the scorching breath of the phoenix hit him, melting and dissipating the Mountain Divine God Seal that had remained at the top of the Two-Realms Battlefield.

The Mountain Divine God Seal wasn’t a magical treasure but rather a divine skill.

Just like a palm strike or sword qi, it could be melted away!

Qing took a few breaths, with his eyes squinting slightly.

His breathing, however, became more calm.

Countermeasures flashed through his mind at breakneck speed.

He could call for Uncle Lei.

But Uncle Lei might not be a match for her, and Qing didn’t have the means to contact Phoenix Feng Si, his grandmother on his Peacock True Body side.

Whether it was because of the peacock or simply because it was his second incarnation, Feng Si had not invited Qing to join the Phoenix Clan in the Profound Realm.

The fire phoenix slightly lowered its head, looking at Qing: “You’re not afraid of me anymore.”

A raspy and smoky voice described Qing’s current state.

Qing shrugged his turtle shell: “After all, I can’t beat you, so if I was afraid, would you spare me?”

Qing let out a light laugh: “Moreover, there’s no need to be afraid here!

We’re too close to Yunmeng Ze.”

He didn’t know if Ji Feixue had managed to get away from the Dragon Divine God Sacrifice, he hadn’t contacted Meng Xuan recently, he hadn’t made inquiries – for some reason, in front of Su Huanian, Qing avoided thinking about that crazy White Dragon.

But at this moment, Qing hoped that Ji Feixue would turn her gaze here.

If that crazy White Dragon did, she should be able to stop this Fire Phoenix.

The Fire Phoenix lowered its head: “Waiting for the Yunmeng Dragon King?

Do you think that drake can beat me?”

“I’m not guessing!” blurted out Qing.

Phoenix Chao Fei suddenly paused; the flames on her body stalled for a moment.

After so many years, she was one of only two who dared to talk to her with such bravado.

The other one was also a dragon turtle, but a white one.

The white turtle had the right to be so unrestrained with her, but what gave this black turtle the right?

Her eyes narrowed as she looked at Qing.

Qing shook his body, and the spirit snake on his back hissed.

“My backing isn’t the Yunmeng Dragon King; why should I wait for him?” he said, lifting his head high and staring directly at the Fire Phoenix: “My wife is the Princess of Yunmeng Ze, Ji Feixue!”

The flames on Phoenix Chao Fei’s body suddenly extinguished at that moment.

She looked down at Qing: “Are you seeking death?” Did he dare make fun of that crazy mother dragon at such close range?

Did he truly think the mother dragon wouldn’t dare suppress a dragon turtle?

Qing smiled, “Genuine one hundred percent, you can verify it with the Princess if you have doubts!”

The Fire Phoenix stood still for a moment, then burst out laughing, letting out crisp phoenix cries, only to abruptly stop the laughter and look down at Qing: “Fine!

I’ll verify it!”

Others might fear Ji Feixue, but not her!

So what if she was a madwoman?

Aren’t they all mad?

Four Spirits geniuses, Phoenix Chao Fei, Ji Feixue, White Spirit, Water Monarch, which one isn’t mad?

Who would decimate their own clansmen if not mad?

Which genius isn’t crazy?

With a peal of laughter, Phoenix Chao Fei looked at Qing: “I initially just wanted to see what kind of creature a dragon turtle who entered the Evil-suppressing Taoist Palace was.

But it turned out to be quite the surprise.”

White Spirit, that little clan brother, is just as mad!

Would he dare take advantage of Ji Feixue if not?

Qing was startled, she didn’t come to kill his second incarnation?

By then the Fire Phoenix had already flown down from the wutong tree, spreading her wings and hovering over Qing, eye to eye with the spirit snake on his back.

“Dragon turtle, spirit snake…

indeed Xuan Wu!

White Spirit, that fool, failed to bring out Xuan Wu and never even entered the Tao Palace,” she said with a chuckle.

The phoenix’s heart bloomed with joy; it seemed that simply surpassing White Spirit in this aspect was a great pleasure in her avian life.

Have you been beaten by White Spirit, too?

Qing fell silent for a moment, then spoke faintly: “How do you know she didn’t bring out Xuan Wu?

The Tao Palace…

perhaps she didn’t find anything of interest there?”

The gate to the Xuan Wu Path had recognized its master and could not be opened.

Want to guess who has been through the Xuan Wu Path?

Phoenix Chao Fei was taken aback for a moment, then laughed even more unrestrainedly: “You have been through the Evil-suppressing Taoist Palace and yet you speak this way?

In the burial chamber of the Evil-suppressing Taoist Palace, couldn’t you sense the soaring Tao rhythm?

That’s the exposition of the Origin World, illustrating the fundamentals of The Great Tao!

Why would White Spirit look down on it?”

Qing’s breath halted; so the true treasures left in the Evil-suppressing Taoist Palace were not the corpses of the previous life, but rather the Tao Scripture contained within!

Phoenix Chao Fei looked squarely at Qing: “Since you’ve embarked on the way of the Xuanwu, then we are rivals.

Let’s see who reaches the burial chamber first and captures its Tao rhythm.”

Qing: “…”

Phoenix Chao Fei flapped her wings, flames rose fiercely around her, and her voice grew raspier: “As a senior, I’ll give you a heads-up; having entered the Evil-suppressing Taoist Palace is like being branded, just like the blood curse of your dragon turtle tribe.

The enemies you’ll face are beyond your imagination.

Are you ready to be assassinated at any moment?”

There was schadenfreude in her voice.

Having laughed, she suddenly became serious, her killing intent apparent: “After finishing trivial matters, now show your Peacock True Body!”
