Spirit Rhyme Turtle with Unlimited Growth Potential
The next morning.
Zhou Qing and Tang San still got up early, as did Romantina, Xiao Wu, You Hui, who all got up early to do Broadcast Gymnastics together to improve their Qi and Blood.
After breakfast, Zhou Qing accompanied Tang San to Uncle Wang's house to help set Uncle Wang bones and treat him.
Tang San was the main force in the treatment, while Zhou Qing only helped apply the medicine and bring water.
Two hours later, Tang San wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Wang Shi, "Auntie Wang, I have put Uncle Wang's broken leg and ribs back in place. Fortunately, the injury was not too serious and there were few broken bones, otherwise it would have been quite difficult to treat."
According to the prescription I gave you, boil the medicine for Uncle Wang and apply the plaster. Uncle Wang should be able to walk again within six months.
On the prescription, I drew pictures of the corresponding herbs. More than 90% of the herbs can be found in the mountains and forests near Holy Soul Village, which can save a lot of costs.
"My Tang San! I have no way to repay you. If you don't mind, let's make a deal. If I give birth to a daughter, I will marry her to you. If you don't like her, she can be your maid. If I give birth to a son, I will be your servant!" After seeing that Wang Shi Uncle Wang had fallen asleep, Wang's pale face regained some color, and she immediately knelt down.
Tang San was a little at a loss.
Zhou Qing immediately helped her up and said, "Auntie Wang, there's no need. We're all neighbors, helping each other is only right. If you really want to thank us, don't you grow peaches? When they're ripe, just send us a basket to try."
"Yes, Auntie Wang, there's really no need." Tang San immediately realized what was going on and dared not accept Auntie Wang's promise, otherwise it would only cause embarrassment when walking in the village in the future.
The two men persuaded Wang Shi for a long time before she finally let go of the matter.
However, after Zhou Qing and Tang San left Uncle Wang's house, Wang Shi was full of regret and complained to her son, "You ignorant son, you didn't even speak up for your mother. If I really give birth to a daughter in the future, I might be even closer to her. In the future, you will have a brother-in-law who is a Soul Master, and it will be easier for you to find a wife."
The twelve-year-old son didn't really "understand" and asked earnestly, "But Mom, are you sure you'll have a little sister?"
Looks like your butt's itchy!
Despite being heavily pregnant, Wang Shi deftly grabbed a feather duster from the side.
Seeing this, the son broke out in a cold sweat and scrambled out of the house, shouting, "Mom, I'm going to the fields to check on the crops so they don't get eaten by field mice!"
——
After leaving Uncle Wang's house, Zhou Qing and Tang San followed the stream upstream and found the Spirit Rhyme Turtle in the sun.
During this time, the Spirit Rhyme Turtle's body has grown larger than before, and the number of leaves on the Tree of Nature on its back has reached five.
Upon seeing Zhou Qing and Tang San, the Spirit Rhyme Turtle moved its short limbs and crawled towards them, its mouth open as if asking: Where have you been all this time?
Zhou Qing squatted down, patted the Spirit Rhyme Turtle's head, and laughed, "Truly a clever and intelligent turtle, it still remembers us?"
"Is this Spirit Rhyme Turtle?"
Xiao Wu suddenly appeared from behind and jumped directly onto the back of the Spirit Rhyme Turtle, startling the Spirit Rhyme Turtle into trembling fear.
The aura of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast is a calamity for a lower-level Soul Beast, and one that cannot be avoided.
So the Spirit Rhyme Turtle simply retracted its limbs and head into its shell.
You scared it.
Zhou Qing pulled Xiao Wu off the shell of the Spirit Rhyme Turtle, afraid that the clumsy girl would pull the Tree of Nature off the turtle's back.
"Strange, why is this Spirit Rhyme Turtle so afraid of you?"
Tang San noticed this, but Xiao Wu didn't explain. She just made up a casual remark and said, "Spirit Rhyme Turtle is still a turtle. Isn't it normal for it to be a coward?"
Zhou Qing changed the subject, asking, "You also know this Spirit Rhyme Turtle?"
"Certainly!"
Xiao Wu sat back on the tortoise shell, looking at the Tree of Nature on it, and said with a smile, "My parents and two younger brothers also play... cough cough, they've studied the Spirit Rhyme Turtle. For this kind of tortoise to reach the ten-thousand-year level, it has to rely entirely on time to mature. However, after reaching the ten-thousand-year level, it completely merges with the plants on its back, and the Spirit Rhyme Turtle becomes powerful. I heard that a ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Rhyme Turtle can form its own world, gathering a large group of Soul Beast to provide them with a place to live, and they will also help protect the Spirit Rhyme Turtle's safety."
"However, it is said that most of the Spirit Rhyme Turtle that are over 10,000 years old will go to the sea, and after they die, their bodies will turn into an island."
This was a statement Zhou Qing hadn't seen in the "Martial Soul Encyclopedia." However, compared to human Soul Master ' understanding of Soul Beast, he was more willing to believe Xiao Wu's words. After all, she was Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit in human form, and her accuracy should be higher than what Soul Master of this era had explored.
"Transform into an island in the sea?" Tang San looked at the Spirit Rhyme Turtle, which was only a little over two meters long, and could already imagine how enormous it would be when it reached the ten-thousand-year level.
Zhou Qing asked, "There should be a limit to the size of Soul Beast. Even a powerful Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, I think, is at most a hundred meters tall, right?"
The size of Soul Beast does not increase infinitely with the improvement of its cultivation level. There is a limit. After reaching that limit, the cultivation level can continue to improve, but the size of the beast will hardly increase.
Like the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King in the original work, even though its cultivation was close to a million years, its body length was only two hundred meters.
"That's what makes the Spirit Rhyme Turtle so special."
Xiao Wu spoke of things not described in the "Beast Encyclopedia": "Among all Soul Beast, the Spirit Rhyme Turtle is the most special one. Its size can increase with its cultivation level. There are even rumors that part of the continent beneath our feet is formed from the corpses of one or more Spirit Rhyme Turtle with cultivation levels far exceeding Hundred-Thousand-Year."
"Is this just wishful thinking?"
If it were a super powerful fantasy world, Zhou Qing would believe that such peculiar turtle creatures would indeed exist. But among the Soul Beast of the Douluo Continent, are there similar creatures?
Looking at the entire universe, Zhou Qing believed it was possible, but Douluo Continent...
Suddenly!
Zhou Qing had a sudden inspiration and realized that it wasn't impossible.
In the Douluo Series, the time between Douluo II and Douluo I is only ten thousand years. In a mere ten thousand years, the Sun Moon Continent can collide with the Douluo Continent.
The Sun Moon Continent was already very close to the Douluo Continent.
If that were the case, the native people of the Douluo Continent during the Douluo I Continent era would surely have realized that there was no reason for the continent to remain in a three-way balance of power, and they would have definitely transferred their internal conflicts to other continents.
Furthermore, based solely on the original description, it appears to have been a sudden collision, rather than a normal continental drift process...
Douluo 2 Era Continent, other Deity in the Divine Realm still existed. It was impossible for Tang Hao Great God King Tang, to be so blatant as to push another continent to collide with the Douluo Continent while Tang Hao and Ah Yin, who were living in seclusion on Douluo Star, were to do so. Did two mere Second-rank Deity have that kind of power? Not to mention, at this time, they could not possibly have become the Plane Master and the Core of Life.
However, if the Sun Moon Continent is not a true continental plate of the Planet, but rather formed from the corpses of one or more highly powerful Spirit Rhyme Turtle, and is truly "floating," then it is possible for it to collide with the Douluo Continent within a short period of ten thousand years.
