Mythical Turtle God Temple

Mythical Turtle God Temple

Facing the plan proposed by Turtle Gu Zi, Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and readily agreed: "The more ancient bloodlines, the better. After all, those bloodlines were cultivated by the Pangu Continent over countless years. Adding them in is definitely a good thing!"

"Even more so, I need to actively seek out bloodlines to promote the diversity of the ecosystem."

"But the artisan's inspiration is limited in duration, we must act quickly!"

He was indeed a little anxious. Being in a state of inspiration without suitable materials, how painful would that be?

On the contrary, Artisan Turtle Person Number 14 was somewhat hesitant. He hadn't had inspiration for too long, and he wasn't as confident as Lu Yuan: "Don't rush. Whether one can become a Grandmaster Artisan is fate, it cannot be forced."

"Right, give me that book on Field Industrialization. It's good to study more while in a state of inspiration."

Without much further ado, Lu Yuan threw a few booklets to him, left the Qiankun World, and began to hurriedly move the corpses of those [Essence].

These big guys were truly enormous!

The [Essence Nine-Headed Giant Turtle] with the longest lifespan actually lasted for three eras, only aging and dying at the end of the Eighth Era!

It was practically a mobile continent, and it was the mount of Turtle Person Number 12, Turtle Gu Zi.

But even the strongest life eventually dies, turning into stone-shaped matter.

"This old fellow has been with me for a very long time." Seeing Lu Yuan take it into the Qiankun World, Turtle Gu Zi couldn't help but feel complicated emotions, rubbing his eyes.

Some [Essence] were still in good spirits, "crunching" on vegetables there.

They and the Turtle People were essentially like family. When they saw Lu Yuan, their eyes rolled around, clearly knowing that Old Lu had provided the vegetables.

"You continue to raise the living ones, I only take the dead."

When Lu Yuan transported those long-dead corpses to the Qiankun World, some Turtle People clearly showed reluctance, even shedding tears.

Lu Yuan comforted them: "Sigh, I can understand... I raised a wolf, it's very old, and I've been extending its lifespan."

"But one day it will leave, and when that happens, I will also bury it in the Qiankun World."

Turtle Gu Zi sighed: "Alright everyone, they've been dead for so long. Extracting their bloodlines and integrating them into the world is their best destination... Hurry up, even my mount has already been moved."

The entire moving process was relatively simple.

The Greedy Demon God's Different Dimension couldn't actually cover the area of a continent. Fortunately, with the help of the eye of the [Guai Mythical] in the Immortal Palace, it was barely possible.

After throwing these giant corpses into the Qiankun World, he used the power of the entire world to place them in suitable positions.

"Fall!"

Boom!

Boom!

Several large mountains descended from the sky!

Theoretically, the Race Value of [Essence], this kind of Aberrant Phenomenon, is not as high as that of [Yao], making it difficult to produce Immortal-grade Extraordinary Materials.

Lu Yuan roughly screened them. Even the [Essence Nine-Headed Giant Turtle] that had lived for three eras only retained an Epic-grade shell.

Looking at Turtle Lian Zi, who was studying the book, he felt even more anxious.

So, after transporting ten corpses, Lu Yuan returned to the Qiankun World and hurriedly said, "I just came up with a temporary idea. I'll use the 'Heaven-Opening Forging Method' to directly create an Immortal-grade material! But whether it will succeed or not, I can't be sure."

"Go ahead and do it boldly!" Turtle Lian Zi said with a smile, "I'm enjoying studying your 'Field Industrialization' and don't have very high expectations for creating a Mythical."

You're not in a hurry, but I am!

I'm still counting on you to work for me!

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, not daring to waste even a moment of time for inspiration. He suddenly controlled the power of the Qiankun World, and immediately the earth rumbled, cracking open with fissures that swallowed the ten small mountain peaks.

Suddenly, a muffled thunderclap exploded from the earth's core, and some turtle shells were instantly completely swallowed by the fiery red magma.

Then came the second sound, the third sound—the earth was roaring. A scarlet wound split open in the mountain, and magma gushed out like blood, bubbling and hissing.

The magma first flowed tentatively for a few steps, and then rushed down unrestrainedly. Wherever it passed, the rocks let out explosive wails, and the turtle shells transformed into bloodline rules.

At this moment, the world seemed to undergo a subtle change. Torrential rain poured down from the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and volcanoes erupted! The scene was extremely terrifying!

Bloodline, this is the highest law originating from life.

In materialistic terms, it is called genes, and it regulates all aspects of life.

According to idealistic terms, bloodline signifies the most primitive blood relationship and is also the smallest unit for the survival and reproduction of civilization.

Without bloodline relationships, civilization cannot arise!

The innate plants near the Life Tree actually have no bloodline; they cannot reproduce offspring.

And at this moment, the first bloodline actually appeared in the Qiankun World, originating from various Essences!

Even more so, there are no living Essences at this moment; they are all dead. The appearance of a bloodline in the absence of life is itself a very peculiar causal relationship.

Boom! Infinite lightning struck the earth, and the evolution of the world accelerated once again!

"This is..." Lu Yuan sensed the changes in the world. With his shallow knowledge, it was truly difficult to describe this feeling—from now on, the first species born in the Qiankun World would definitely be turtles.

Anyway... it wouldn't be a bad thing.

Lu Yuan controlled this grand dance of death, using the earth's core fire as a furnace, the remains of the Essences as raw materials, and bloodline as the rule. The raging fire was reflected in his pupils.

The Turtle People all watched this scene with relish. The "Heaven-Opening Forging Method" was indeed a wild idea, but the threshold was too high! Either use oneself as the world, or use a planet as a furnace. How many people could do that?

"Senior, what attribute material do you need?!"

"Water attribute or earth attribute will do!" Turtle Lian Zi quickly replied.

Suddenly, Lu Yuan raised his spirit, energy, and vitality to the limit and roared, "Open!"

Only to see a live volcano rise from the horizon in the turbid ocean. Amidst the swirling smoke, a huge turtle shell flew out from the sky.

[Essence Nine-Headed Giant Turtle Shell]

[The shell of an Essence Nine-Headed Giant Turtle that lived for three eras and possessed a powerful bloodline.]

[Its corpse was buried deep underground and tempered by the earth's core fire. The supernatural and physical properties of the turtle shell have significantly improved compared to when it was alive. (Immortal-grade Natural Oddity)]

"Senior, how is the quality of this material? Is it enough? If it's not enough, I'll go outside and transport some more for tempering."

"Hahaha, it's enough, it's enough! If you transport any more, those old bones will probably cry their eyes out." Turtle Lian Zi looked at the large turtle shell and couldn't help but laugh.

This turtle shell presented a purplish-gold color, sparkling and clearly not an ordinary item at first glance.

It was just a bit too large in volume.

Even after refining to shrink it as much as possible, it was still as big as an aircraft carrier.

"What should I do with such a large item? I must utilize the material's characteristics as much as possible... This is my best chance to create a Mythical item..."

Turtle Lian Zi recalled his life experiences, felt this brand new world, savored the inspiration that had just been born, and suddenly slapped his head.

"I've got it!"

Lu Yuan felt a slight relaxation when he saw Turtle Lian Zi finally starting to create.

He felt even more nervous than during the college entrance exam.

The Turtle People were all incredibly excited: "Oh? Is he trying to create an Immortal Palace? Are those spatial glyphs?"

After many years, they finally had someone attempting the realm of Grandmaster Artisan again!

"If he wants to imitate an Immortal Palace... it's very difficult." Lu Yuan shook his head, "Huangtian Great Emperor was indeed brilliant and resourceful, I don't know where he got a large number of spatial glyphs from, and I still haven't completely deciphered those systems."

This was also true; every Grandmaster Artisan had their own set of "Innate Glyphs."

These "Innate Glyphs" had their own uniqueness, like a self-created language, making it difficult for others to copy.

"In any case, it's the shape of a palace."

"It won't be a prison for confining Guai, will it? I see the glyphs he's engraving are all enhancing the turtle shell's resistance..."

"It could also be an animal breeding base."

Lu Yuan grinned. Many ancient Myths were indeed slowly being phased out by technology. How incredibly talented would the creator of the first prison capable of confining Guai have to be?

However, in the eyes of Advanced Civilizations, a prison for confining Guai was actually only worth one or two hundred Civilization Points, its value was just that.

Since he couldn't tell what it was, he stopped guessing randomly and instead cupped his hands towards the other Turtle People, starting a different topic.

"Seniors, I have another matter. My Greedy Demon God can replicate Extraordinary abilities, including various God's Skills."

"In the Northern Territory, I earned quite a few Civilization Points by relying on this replication ability."

"Currently, the Civilization Points I have are less than 100,000, so I can't invest heavily in the Qiankun World."

"But if I have more points in the future, I can invest a large amount, allowing it to grow even faster..."

The Turtle People had actually heard about this from the Immortal Palace Aberrants, so they weren't that surprised, but they were somewhat moved by the mention of "100,000 Civilization Points."

You are not even satisfied with this number... A Level Six Civilization is probably only at this magnitude!

Of course, now that Lu Yuan had become Jade, coupled with the recent cooperation, they felt that the greedier Old Lu was, the better. How could the Ink Sect leader save the world without money?

"You mean, seeking cooperation with the Turtle Civilization to help you sell God's Skills all over the world?"

"Exactly."

Turtle Gu Zi thought for a moment: "Naturally, there is no problem. Don't worry, I will write a letter. As long as you return to the outside world and find members of my clan, the plan can be implemented quickly."

Lu Yuan was somewhat excited. The influence of the Turtle Civilization was incomparable to his Greedy Temple; it could spread across the entire Pangu Continent in one go.

But soon, he frowned again: "Senior, it's not that I don't trust the integrity of the Turtle Civilization, but I must take precautions."

"I'm a big target now. Once the news of the Greedy God Temple is exposed, it will be too late to regret."

"I don't know what the Turtle Civilization members are truly like. If even a few traitors appear, it would be a fatal blow to me. I can only trust the few of you."

These Turtle People also fell into deep thought.

Thinking carefully, simply writing a letter was indeed extremely risky. These elders who stayed in the Borderless had experienced great storms and waves. Being able to stay in the Borderless and maintain its stability already proved their integrity and character.

But the Turtle People outside... it was hard to say. Many were the new generation of the Ninth Era. Who knew their true thoughts?

"The new generation of Jade is indeed more thoughtful than I am... I almost harmed him."

Turtle Gu Zi stroked his beard, thinking for a long time but couldn't come up with a good solution.

He could only turn around and discuss with his companions for a while.

"I will go out with you and personally handle this matter."

"Regarding the sale of God's Skills, you don't need to show your face. Let our Turtle Civilization sell them slowly. It basically won't be exposed... After all, other civilizations also sell God's Skills. It's fine for our Turtle Civilization to sell some."

Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment. Taking someone out wasn't a problem. As long as he stayed in the Qiankun World beforehand, he could release the person after Lu Yuan left the Borderless.

"Once Senior leaves the Borderless, you must go to the Different Dimension where the Snake People Palace is located, otherwise you will be hunted by Guai due to forbidden information."

"Don't worry, I can endure the Borderless. Isn't the Different Dimension easy? There are old friends waiting there." Turtle Gu Zi was already looking forward to it. He could finally leave this damned Borderless and enjoy life outside.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but worry for him: "Is it okay to be short one person?"

"There's also Number 14, a high-ranking Advanced Turtle Person... We set up a lot of redundancy back then. Without me, the Borderless will still operate."

Number 14, the Artisan Turtle Person who was creating the palace, tilted his head and said unconvinced: "You get to go out and enjoy life, while I have to stay here and suffer. What a display of power... I'm about to become a Grandmaster Artisan. Shouldn't my number go up a bit!"

A Grandmaster Artisan was indeed not suitable to stay in the Borderless.

Turtle Gu Zi nodded: "Then there's still Number 15. Number 15, you'll be the boss here from now on."

Number 15 said unconvinced: "Why don't you let me go on the mission? It's not a difficult thing."

"Yeah, yeah! Let me go out!"

"I want to go out too!"

Many Turtle People wanted to go out and help Lu Yuan carry the goods.

Lu Yuan sensed that the situation was not good and quickly comforted them: "The Egg World I gave you is a subsidiary plane of the Qiankun World."

"Now the rules inside are not so violent, and you can also reside there permanently."

"With the help of this Egg World, you can also exchange resources with the Qiankun World. I will leave a Temple there. You can build some Idealistic computers, connect to the local area network with the Immortal Palace, and communicate at any time, as well as engage in various entertainment."

These Turtle People finally accepted.

That Egg World was really good. They could grow vegetables and play games. Their future life would be comfortable. Only then did they agree to let Number 12 and Number 14 leave.

The subsequent matters were also simple. Number 14, the Artisan Turtle Person, continued his creation—the Race Value of Level Six Civilization individuals was actually much higher than that of humans. He could actually endure working for half a year without eating, drinking, or sleeping.

He truly was a top-tier worker!

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan went door-to-door, collecting the deceased Essence into the Qiankun World. Mountains descended from the sky, greatly increasing the foundation of the "Yang World."

As the Turtle bloodline was continuously replenished, the growth rate of the innate plants noticeably accelerated.

Occasionally, a few reluctant Turtle People would cry and wail at Lu Yuan, roaring loudly, "That was my good brother who fought alongside me for many years! I can't bear to part with him!"

Their voices were heartbreaking to hear.

"This is so your Mythical Grandmaster can borrow more Civilization Luck!" The Greedy Demon God showed no mercy. After snatching their treasures, he gave them some vegetables, which finally appeased these sorrowful Turtle People.

Just like that, a year passed in a hurry.

A massive palace floated above the ocean!

The temple was built from a purplish-gold material that emitted a faint glow, resembling a sleeping giant Turtle in the darkness. The four thick "Turtle legs" were actually pillars supporting the temple, while the raised "Turtle shell" was the dome of the main hall. The dome was inlaid with countless glowing crystals, simulating the appearance of the starry sky.

[Mythical · Turtle God Temple]

[Sleeping city walls, ancient pillars and beams, at the end of the mountains and the sea, is the world's final song.]

[Grandmaster Artisan, Turtle Lian Zi, while visiting a vibrant new world, recalled his decaying homeland, his heart filled with myriad thoughts. That homeland had not been glorious for tens of thousands of years, but it still held the wildness of time's wine, intoxicating the present moment.]

[Eight eras ago, the 'Turtle God Temple' was destroyed in the first era war and buried deep underground. Eight eras later, connected to the infinite land with soil, the Turtle God Temple reappears in another world. This work uses classical forging techniques to describe artistic reflections on "reincarnation."]

[Ability 1: Shield of Life, the Turtle shells produced by the 'Turtle God Temple', each piece has excellent defensive performance. As long as the shield is not broken, the person does not die.]

[Ability 2: Great Gravity Manipulation, can instantly control the gravity of matter.]

[Ability 3: Return to Antiquity, long-term presence in the Turtle God Temple will refine the innate bloodline and greatly increase lifespan.]

[Ability 4: Great Shelter Field, can activate a massive field. Within the field, the reproductive ability and vitality of plants and animals are greatly increased. (Mythical-grade Artificial Oddity)]

"It's... finished?" Turtle Lian Zi was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes, yet he also felt a bit awkward. This contradictory feeling made him feel like he was dreaming.

Because this "Turtle God Temple" was actually a creation from the First Era; he had merely copied it exactly...

Except for the last "Shelter Field," which he had indeed added, the other three abilities were copied from past Mythical creations.

"Senior, there are no two identical leaves in the world. There's no need to belittle yourself. Congratulations, another Grandmaster Artisan has appeared in the world!" Lu Yuan offered sincere congratulations.
