Don’t Mess with that Turtle
Chapter 326 - 326 51 Chaos_1

326: Chapter 51 Chaos_1 326: Chapter 51 Chaos_1 The flames receded, and Phoenix Chao Fei muttered to himself while flying, his voice alternating between clear and melodious and hoarse like smoke.

Gradually, he began to argue with himself.

“Not much skill, but no shortage of pride.

Do you think he’s seen too many powerful beings and forgotten his own weight?” Divine God Beasts all had this problem, particularly the Four Spirits.

His eyes opened to the mightiest existences of the All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

Accustomed to seeing Greater Powers, he felt no fear towards the mighty, forgetting his own measure.

“Daring to mark me with a blood curse…” the smoky voice scoffed coldly.

Before finishing, it transformed into a melodious voice: “He’s your own child.

Why terrify him with such murderous intent?”

“He’s derived from your bloodline, he’s your son!

Not mine!” the smoky voice growled low.

The melodious voice immediately countered: “Our Origins are merged; my child is your child!”

“He marked me with a blood curse, he’s an enemy who will not rest until death!” the smoky voice breathed heavily: “Besides, he’s a brother from the White Spirit Clan.

How can I not harbor murderous intent?”

Were it not for the White Spirit, would she be as she is now, a single body with twin souls?!

Clearly, a Divine God Beast’s flesh body and divine soul should be unified.

So why do two consciousnesses appear within the same body?

The more Phoenix Chao Fei thought, the crazier he became.

With a cry of the phoenix, he incinerated the space ahead and plunged into it with flapping wings.

The arguing voices instantly vanished, and the peacock tore through space, its destination unknown.

…

The Flying Boat was swift, and Long Moon Mansion came clearly into view.

Su He leapt down; the Flying Boat rapidly shrank to the size of a dining table and was stored in the External Space.

Carrying the entrance to a little world, one couldn’t enter Long Moon Mansion.

Su He’s refining of the entrance was too crude, and the dispersion of space power was too strong.

Long Moon Mansion itself was a secret land, and its gate had its own spatial properties that clashed with the entrance to the small world.

The broken stones were set beside the Long Moon Mansion gate, and the entrance to the small world slowly unfolded, becoming a swirling presence floating alongside the gate.

For now, he placed it here.

Later, when a Suppression Land was chosen in the Chaotic Deep, there’d be time to move the small world over.

After exchanging greetings with the mermaids, Su He saw Green Thunder across the sky, flicking a fishing rod, once again fishing for magical creatures from the All Heavens.

Ya Ya was eagerly perched on the fishing rod.

Since becoming a turtle, her fondness for shrimp had grown.

However, ordinary shrimp were tasteless to her; only the green shrimps which Turtle Grandpa fished from who-knew-where could she not get enough of.

Unfortunately, Turtle Dad was too clumsy at fishing.

As soon as Su He entered, Green Thunder abruptly turned: “Phoenix Chao Fei!”

He sensed the aura of that phoenix on Su He.

Extremely close and powerful, Su He had been in close contact with that Fire Phoenix!

Green Thunder’s eyes flashed with Talisman Runes, seeing through Su He in an instant.

“She came looking for you, did you use a Blood Curse, is the second self gone?” Green Thunder’s voice was icy cold, murderous intent boiling instantly.

Ya Ya, lying on the fishing rod, blinked and looked back at Turtle Grandpa, confused.

Green Thunder immediately reined in his murderous aura, showing not a trace, but his eyes still crackled with lightning as his gentle dragon whiskers caressed Ya Ya.

He spoke as soothingly as possible: “Ya Ya, it’s okay.

Keep fishing for shrimp.”

Su Huanian appeared beside Su He, one hand on his sword, his eyes flashing with a sword light.

Su He shook his head: “It’s alright.

The Princess of Yunmeng Ze was there too, and she wasn’t injured.”

Green Thunder shook his head, the electric glare in his eyes fading slightly: “After all, Princess Chang is an outsider; she can’t save you once, let alone ten times.”

Phoenix Chao Fei needed a proper opponent to measure his strength as he emerged from his shell; without a true battle, how could he adapt to his current body, how to create a Cultivation Technique suitable for a Turtle-Snake union?

Incubated in the egg for a long time, numerous ideas burst forth; he could use the battle to fuse all these thoughts into one.

He looked at Su He: “Leave this matter to me, you don’t need to concern yourself with it anymore.

If there’s nothing else, then follow me; your Uncle Candle and Uncle Locust are in some trouble and need your help.”

Indeed, Divine God Beasts also had to maintain their juvenile form; some things once grown up they couldn’t do, which children could handle.

“Me, me!” Ya Ya raised her paw excitedly and called out in commotion: “Turtle Grandpa, Turtle Grandpa.

I can help too!

I’m also a Dragon Turtle!”

Green Thunder laughed heartily, wrapping his dragon whiskers around Ya Ya’s shell: “Ya Ya’s the best!

Next time there’s something to be done, it’s Ya Ya’s turn to take action!

But this time, you need to stay home and watch over your mother; she’s still seriously injured.”

Ya Ya’s raised paw sheepishly retracted.

Right, her mother was no longer at Qingyuan Gate, and with Turtle Dad gone, she was the only one who could protect her mother.

Green Snake…

Snake Auntie was far too weak; even with wings, she couldn’t beat her.

“What’s happened to Uncle Candle and Uncle Locust?” The two clan uncles were not weaker than Uncle Lei, what could they not handle that required his help?

Though doubtful in his heart, Su He didn’t hesitate: “Uncle Lei, I’m ready at any time.

Aside from cultivating, I have no other matters.”

Green Thunder smiled: “Well then, there’s no time to waste.

Let’s go.” He nodded to Su Hua and motioned to Ya Ya, saying: “Good grandchild, stay here and guard your mother well, don’t make trouble, and don’t leave the house.”

Ya Ya transformed back into human form, swung off the fishing rod, and landed on the ground with a flourish, waving grandly: “Rest assured!

The Imperial ‘I’ knows!”

Green Thunder laughed loudly, tore open space, and dove in first; Su He gave a slight nod to Su Hua: “Take care and heal.”

Only after seeing Su Hua’s almost imperceptible nod did he follow Green Thunder and leap into the space tunnel.

The passage sealed up immediately afterward.

The rule of Long Moon Mansion that forbade entrance to those not in a couple meant nothing in Green Thunder’s eyes.

Looking at the now peaceful space, Su Huanian smiled softly, took Ya Ya’s hand, and returned to the bamboo house.

As they passed the pond where the toad resided, he suddenly turned his head, as if unintentionally, and asked, “What kind of being is that Princess?”

The dozing toad, startled by the question, suddenly started snoring loudly, feigning deep sleep.

…

This was the first time Su He had truly experienced long-distance spatial transfer.

Crashing into it, the power of space rippled like waves against the turtle shell, rebounding layer by layer.

In this space, layer upon layer, it revealed itself without any secrets.

If one could always be in the space tunnel practicing the Barbarian King Refining World Technique, the efforts would likely be doubly effective.

But unfortunately, the time was too short.

Before he could comprehend it, Su He had already tumbled out, landing on the edge of the Prosperous Divine Great World.

Hurricanes whipped around, along with thunder, celestial fire, and floods… Here chaos met the great world, with heavenly constellations erupting haphazardly.

Behind the constellations, new small worlds were born, but before they could escape, they were exterminated by chaos and natural disasters.

By some lucky chance, one or two would slip into the void and vanish.

Perhaps in tens of millions of years or even longer, they would grow into a real small world and reappear.

“You must shuttle between two places in this chaos, where Uncle Zhu and Uncle Huai are in retreat and I cannot enter.

Exterminate all such sneaky creatures on sight,” Qingyuan transmitted his voice to Su He, and with a sweep of his claw, he grabbed a twisting, serpentine breath from the void.

This thing gave Su He the feeling of a pesky fly, a disgusting nuisance!

“Get out immediately after you finish exterminating one side, I will send you to the other, and go back and forth until there are no more sly beings, or until they break out of their shells.”

It must be that these breaths were affecting Uncle Zhu and Uncle Huai’s fusion with the Soaring Snake.

With a Mountain Divine God Seal cast by Su He, it landed on the bizarre Soaring Snake, and the snake was instantly dispersed into smoke.

But after a moment, it coalesced again, reforming into a twisted Soaring Snake.

“The Mountain Divine God Seal is useless.

You must use Divine God Might or Chaotic Edge, driven by the Power of the World, to reverse-slash the origin.” These things were stubborn, not truly living creatures, but unless you reverse-slash their origin completely, they would be inexhaustible.

Su He closed and opened his eyes, then roared loudly.

This roar summoned all his power, falling upon the eerie Soaring Snake which melted into the boiling water, twisting as it dissolved into a wisp of blue smoke.

Su He had mastered Divine God Attraction for too short a time, and the power to reverse-slash the origin was consequently a bit weaker.

To use Divine God Might, he had to exert all his strength.

“Uncle Lei!” Su He shouted.

Understanding his intention, Green Thunder grabbed several breaths that turned into Soaring Snakes and coiled around him.

Su He stepped forward, and Chaotic Edge fell like rain, instantly slicing through several snakes.

Chaotic Edge had the power to annihilate all living creatures.

Though these breaths weren’t living creatures, the effect was still good.

Combined with Divine God Attraction, it was much easier than using Divine God Might.

“That’s enough, Uncle Lei,” Su He sensed for a moment silently.

He could keep releasing Chaotic Edge continuously without stopping, since its consumption wasn’t as fast as his own recovery.

Green Thunder nodded, “Go then!

I’ll be outside the chaos.

If something unexpected happens, immediately leave the chaos.”

Su He nodded and leaped into the chaos.

The chaos outside the great world was vastly different from the gentle chaos within the Boundary Pearl; it was extraordinarily violent.

Upon stepping into it, eyes became useless.

Everywhere one looked was an indefinable color, and up, down, east, and west were indistinguishable.

Although he had just entered, with no boundaries in any direction he could travel, it seemed as if the Prosperous Divine Great World had abruptly vanished.

Su He held his breath and focused, deciding to close his eyes and carefully sense his surroundings.

Invisible threads shot out from the dragon horns like a spider web into the chaos.

The once directionless, timeless chaos gradually became clearer and more understandable through Su He’s “sight.”

Though still unclear, it was as if it was only obscured by dense fog, not a lack of direction but purely a lack of visibility.

Whether strong or weak, Divine God Beasts naturally possess the ability to discern direction in chaos.

Upon careful sensing, he could detect the presence of the Prosperous Divine Great World in the direction of his left paw and the faint breath of Uncle Huai to his right.

If the Inner World were consolidated and the Power of the World infused into the flesh, this ability to discern directions in chaos should be even stronger.

This was a privilege of Divine God Beasts.

The Divine God Beast Inner World was different from the Cultivator’s Cave World as Divine God Beasts opened theirs from the Boundary Bead Chaos, whereas Cultivators opened theirs within indeterminate locations inside their bodies by Sword Offering.

Lacking chaos, if Cultivators with insufficient Tao Cultivation entered the chaos, they would risk losing their way.

Heading towards Ancient Locust, Su He had not yet arrived when he “saw” a newly opened region in the chaos, roaring mountains, rivers, and oceans.

In the center of the region stood an egg as large as a mountain.

Sly Soaring Snakes, hissing, tried to bore into it.

The egg radiated light, fending off the sneaky creatures.

Historically calm and completely focused, the Dragon Turtle egg now had to split its attention to fend off these sly things, and the adverse effect on its transformation was not difficult to imagine.

“Uncle Huai!”

With a long chant from Su He, he burst forward, heading straight for the huge egg transformed from the Ancient Locust.

At the same time, Chaotic Edge rained down, blanketing a ten-mile radius.

Arriving at the top of the immense egg, Su He’s Chaotic Edge fell, eradicating the sly creatures around it.

The pressure upon the giant egg suddenly lifted.

The surface of the Ancient Locust huge egg flickered, greeting Su He.

Who would have thought that he, Ancient Locust, would one day owe his life to a little Turtle?

With Chaotic Edge scattering around, Su He hacked at the Soaring Snakes, at himself, and at the Ancient Locust huge egg.

Deep in the chaos, an altar slowly became visible.

The altar was bizarre, supported by four Soaring Snake stone statues holding up a large drum.

On the drum stood a figure with a single horn atop a cow’s leg, its eyes slowly opening.
