Wang Yusheng's Predicament
Is the Old Turtle manipulating things?
Wang Xuan estimated that such a large turtle, comparable in size to the vastness of land, would surely cause an earth-shattering battle if it were to actually fight, attracting the attention of the sea creatures and other extraordinary beings.
Forget it, he doesn't like fighting and killing, let's just let it go, whether he says it or not.
"I always felt that the life traces in your bones were similar. Do you want to know what he said?" The Old Turtle's massive, mountain-like head turned and scrutinized him carefully.
"Although I am very curious, I have never met Wang Yusheng and do not know his past. Whether you are willing to talk about it or not, please feel free to do so," Wang Xuan said, genuinely unaware of his brother's life experiences.
Of course, he was very concerned, especially knowing that all the experts from the Tattoo Palace had joined forces with various top sects to besiege Wang Yusheng, which made his heart heavy.
According to the Old Turtle, that cosmic war was fierce, reaching the Mysterious Sea. After the bloody battle, Wang Yusheng left and never appeared again.
"Though the Divine Turtle lives a long life, it still has an end. The tortoise will eventually die. There are some things I don't want to take to my coffin, but I'll say them anyway. Mainly, I think your life characteristics are very similar."
Wang Xuan didn't ask it to tell him, but the Old Turtle took the initiative and didn't want to keep it a secret anymore.
"He said he missed home, but he couldn't go back. At that time, he was covered in blood and badly injured, leaving a bloody footprint with every step he took. He sat on me and gazed into the void."
Upon hearing these words, Wang Xuan frowned slightly. He didn't care whether the Old Turtle was observing him or not. He realized that his brother was facing a very difficult and worrying environment.
"He said that the Tattoo Palace is a member of a certain faction, and the opponents in the mist are too powerful, including beings that transcend the world."
The Old Turtle was relaying the information, and it was clear that Wang Yusheng was in a very bad situation.
Then, it conveyed Wang Yusheng's resolute words.
"In the future, I must stand in the True Saint Domain, otherwise I will have no way to survive, let alone Slay Saint."
This is Wang Yusheng's message, which demonstrates his determination and reveals the terrible situation he is facing.
"I miss my hometown, I dream of my parents, I really want to bring you here," he murmured to himself as he set off again.
Wang Xuan seemed to see the scene ahead of his brother: thorns and blood everywhere, and one terrifying enemy after another, as big as mountains, blocking the way.
"I've been wondering whether Wang Yusheng is homesick, missing his family in this cruel environment, or if he wants to seek extremely powerful help," the Old Turtle said, looking at Wang Xuan.
Then it sighed, "Even with Wang Yusheng being so powerful, do he still have parents alive?"
Wang Xuan ignored it, his thoughts wandering. He was worried about his elder brother and felt some of his emotions. He was setting off alone, facing the supreme camp with true saints by himself. The road was difficult to travel and would inevitably leave behind messy, bloody footprints. Going forward alone to fight enemies was destined to be extremely difficult.
"Alright, I've said what I needed to say. I did this to build a good relationship with you. If you ever see or find my new body in the future, please help me with the treatment. I think I can still be saved."
After the Old Turtle finished speaking, it turned its massive, mountain-like head away, stopped talking, closed its eyes, and fell silent.
At the same time, the waves subsided, the fog dissipated, and they were no longer isolated from the outside world. Wang Xuan reappeared in the sight of Lu Wufa, Zhuo Yanran, and the others.
"What just happened? Why is there a fog and I can't see anything? Senior, why aren't you saying anything?" Xuan Tian asked, puzzled.
Jin Yu shook off the seawater from his body, and was also a little doubtful, as he had just been suddenly blocked by the water mist.
"It's getting late. After we finish enjoying this True Return Fish, it's time for us to get going," Wang Xuan said. He was getting the urge to leave. He had been in the Mysterious Sea long enough. It had been more than two months since he came out, and he had captured almost all the rare items he could find.
"Come, a feast for the senses! True Return Fish! This is a priceless and rare treasure!" Xuan Tian said happily.
Everyone knows that eating this fish is very beneficial for those who are on the path to Dao-imperialized.
Next, the area was bathed in fiery red light, True Return Fish were cut up, from fish head soup to grilled fish to raw slices, with all sorts of ways to eat it.
"Let's finish this last drink and meet again next time," Wang Xuan said, his mind made up.
"Alright, let's have a proper get-together next time. By the way, Brother Lu, if you're free, don't travel far for the next year or two. There will be a gathering then, and besides the disciples of the extraordinary, there might also be those from ethereal, otherworldly... Daoist lineages, you understand? People from those kinds of places might appear!"
"Yes, keep the communicator working, so we can get in touch."
Xuan Tian and Jin Yu both spoke up one after the other, reminding him not to miss it.
Wang Xuan suspected that this might be the grand event that Elder Qingkong of Black Peacock Sacred Mountain had mentioned, which he was going to attend in six months.
"You haven't reached the True Immortal's End yet?" Zhuo Yanran rarely took the initiative to speak to Wang Xuan, a strange look appearing on her pure and beautiful face.
She only learned tonight, after seeing Wang Xuan break through the barrier, that he hadn't actually completed the path to the end, which truly surprised her.
"There's still some potential to be tapped," Wang Xuan said with a smile.
Seeing his slightly reserved face, Zhuo Yanran immediately wanted to punch him in the face. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that he was showing off, like a peacock spreading its tail feathers!
Xuan Tian sighed, "Brother Lu is truly formidable! Looking across the entire star sea, I've never heard of many True Immortals who can reach such a level of strength. At the grand gathering, if True Immortals discuss the Dao, you will surely shine brightly and become famous throughout the starry sky overnight!"
Lu Wufa nod directly. No one knew better than him just how powerful "Master Lu" was. At the True Immortal realm, the Imperial Daoized texture had already attached itself to his bones. And Master Lu had observed the secret of the Spine Dragon of a top-tier superhuman in less than half a day, imprinting it into his mind.
Jin Yu nodded and said, "You must be an extraordinary limit-breaker, and with your early 'journey,' I think you can compete in this tournament. Even if you encounter a True Immortal who has come from Unknown Place, you might not necessarily lose!"
Zhuo Yanran glanced at him and said, " In this Great Era of Strife, those who prevail in the debate on the Dao will have great opportunities."
Actually, Wang Xuan wasn't very interested. He knew very well what he would face in the future and didn't want to come into the spotlight too early.
Of course, if it's done reasonably, without going too far, and without attracting the attention of some unknown creatures, he wouldn't mind taking some people down with him.
For example, the Tattoo Palace, and all its members—if any of their successors were to appear, we would find an opportunity to kill them all.
He was worried about his brother. For now, all he could do was what he could to defeat the opportunistic rivals of this era.
Jin Yu, Xuan Tian, and the others meant well, and since they didn't know his situation, Wang Xuan naturally nodded in agreement, smiled and thanked them, indicating that he understood.
As we parted, my Mysterious Mobile Phone, flew out again and took a picture of them together from a chosen angle.
Wang Xuan wanted to crush it; was he trying to take a group portrait of them before their deaths?
"Golden Years, recording memories of a great era." It also made its voice heard.
Wang Xuan was disgusted, but he had no choice but to defend it, explaining that it was a rare treasure he had crafted, incorporating advanced technology and intelligence, though it was still quite crude at the moment.
"Smile, you woman, I'm talking to you. Open your mouth and say 'cheese,' don't keep that cold face and look so unwilling." The Mysterious Mobile Phone was courting disaster by reminding Zhuo Yanran like this.
"I...!" Wang Xuan felt that he was too busy wiping its bottom.
Clearly, Zhuo Yanran believed that he was controlling the smart communicator and criticizing her.
The Mysterious Mobile Phone quickly captured a group photo, which I was very satisfied with. I said it was capturing the pulse of the times and was very meaningful.
"You don't have a premonition, do you? Is something going to happen, and all of us are going to die?" Wang Xuan asked it secretly and seriously.
"Who in this world can escape death? In Great Era of Strife, anything is possible. But this time I'm not making predictions; I'm simply capturing some memorable moments amidst the chaos."
After saying that, it took a close-up photo of the enormous, astonishing head of the Old Turtle that stood tall in the clouds, which made the Old Turtle feel something and become somewhat suspicious.
Before they parted, Zhuo Yanran's communicator lit up. She had received a secret report that person surnamed An had gathered some women to ambush her, which made her wary. She was really afraid of being cornered and beaten up.
"Ah, they joined forces?" Xuan Tian and Jin Yu were speechless after their initial surprise.
Upon hearing this, Wang Xuan smiled and asked her if she needed his help to fight off her various girlfriends.
Instantly, Zhuo Yanran's face darkened, her stunning figure heaving slightly from her rapid breathing, revealing her amazing curves. Then she turned and flew away, ignoring him.
"Goodbye, everyone." Wang Xuan then flew away.
He had secretly spoken to Lu Wufa beforehand, reminding him not to stay in the Mysterious Sea recently, since no one knew if that top alien would return.
On the way, Wang Xuan negotiated with the Mysterious Mobile Phone. He was originally on the Black Peacock Sacred Mountain, but was suddenly caught by a strange fish and plunged into the seabed of the Mysterious Sea. How do he get back now?
"You have to take responsibility for getting me back!" He had already learned that the Mysterious Sea was at least twenty star fields away from the location of the Black Peacock Sacred Mountain, and the journey was too far.
This time, the Mysterious Mobile Phone was quite cooperative and didn't cause any trouble. It told him to go back to the seabed, to return to where he came from.
Using the array diagram for self-defense, Wang Xuan traversed the Mysterious Sea and arrived at the silent seabed area, facing a gray sky and a chaotic, misty Mist Silk.
"Void Vanished The Existent Heng Divine Radiance, the Supernatural Door Opening!" In the ocean depths, the Mysterious Mobile Phone began chanting incantations.
Upon first hearing this, and realizing that it was actually the name of one of the top five prohibited items, Wang Xuan was truly shocked.
Soon, he realized the Mysterious Mobile Phone putting on an act and wanted to beat it up.
As an icon on the phone screen glowed, becoming a swirling, brilliant halo, on this side of the sea, a door did indeed open in the hazy sky, revealing a Chaos Vortex.
With a whoosh, Wang Xuan traveled through time and returned to the present world.
He was somewhat lost in thought. Had he really come back like this? Twenty-odd star fields, which were originally incredibly far apart, had now returned to their starting point with just a step.
He stood peacefully in his secluded courtyard in the Mountain Peak City of Black Peacock Sacred Mountain. After removing the seal on the exit, he pushed open the door and stepped outside. The morning glow shone brightly, filling the courtyard.
Upon hearing the commotion, the Young Lang Tian, who lived next door, immediately ran over and greeted them warmly.
"Second Father, you always go into seclusion for a long time. This time you said you were just briefly thinking about a problem in your cultivation, and more than two months have passed in the blink of an eye."
"You've grown taller again." Wang Xuan looked at him, then asked, "Where's Badger Wu Xingtian?"
"Seeing that you're always in seclusion, my father has also become determined to improve himself. He's closed his cave and been cultivating diligently for over a month. He plans to refine the three colorful feathers on his head into the Three Great Dao Bodies and the five-colored Divine Feather on his back into the Five Elements World, accumulating strength so that he can soar to the heavens in one fell swoop and become a renowned figure among the Heavenly Grade Expert," Lang Tian explained.
Wang Xuan smiled and nodded. After thinking for a moment, he cut off a large piece of the Silver Strange Fish meat for the father and son. This kind of thing can replenish one's essence and is a priceless treasure.
He didn't send them the True Return Fish because they hadn't yet embarked on the path of Dao-imperialized and had no need for it; consuming it now would be a waste of a rare and precious object.
Wang Xuan said, "Cultivate diligently. The Divine Egg and even the Sacred Egg that you brought out of the Divine Nest with me back then have all been born. I wonder how strong they are now. You will most likely have a sparring match and confrontation soon."
Neither Wolf nor Wolverine hid anything about Wolf's background, nor could they hide it from him anyway, so they told him the truth.
Eleven years have passed, and Lang Tian has grown into a teenager. The battle at the Holy Temple in the Meteorite Sea Space-Time Secret Realm is still ongoing, which is truly astonishing.
"I know that among my peers, I am not afraid of any opponent, and I am as confident as my Second Father! It's just that my father is a bit of a disappointment." Wolf Sky lowered his voice as he spoke, afraid that the wolf badger would hear him when it came out of seclusion.
Of course, he added, "My father's path seems to be quite extraordinary. He can jump from head to toe, and the Five Elements Divine Light on his tail can even be self-contained and endless. If he can accumulate enough depth, he might be able to take the path of achieving great things later in life."
Wang Xuan was taken aback. He hadn't seen the boy for two months, and he already knew so much!
"It was the revival of some Daoist principles in my blood that made me aware of these things," Lang Tian said, scratching his head with the air of a simple, honest young man.
In fact, this child is not dull at all; he is quite clever, he just deliberately keeps a low profile.
Wang Xuan pondered. It used to be a joke about the Sacred Egg, which actually referred to the biological child of the extraordinary person. Now it seems that Lang Tian really does have some extraordinary Roots.
"Okay, go ahead. If you ever awaken any Dao-imperialized in the future, you can come and discuss it with me." Wang Xuan dismissed him.
After that, Wang Xuan did not go out, but focused on seclusion in his cave, pondering his own path and studying the Imperial Daoized texture.
In addition, he began to seriously and earnestly study a Supreme Ancient Text — the Star River Cleansing Body Scripture!
The origin of this scripture is truly extraordinary. It is the only known and currently confirmed Supreme Scripture Fragment left behind by a true saint that is found in Wang Xuan's possession.
Initially, Zhuo Yanran suspected that he was a slave who had submitted to the sea tribe, so she gave him the incomplete book in order to plot against him.
Wang Xuan achieved immortality through physical cultivation and forged his own path to Dao-imperialized. His physique was ridiculously powerful; otherwise, practicing this incomplete scripture would have truly led to disaster.
This book is terrifying and unfathomable.
Unfortunately, even after Zhuo Yanran completed the rest for him, it was only the first part, and she explicitly stated that almost no one could master the last three realms of this part.
"Indeed exquisite, truly remarkable! It belongs to the Supreme Body Refining Secret!" Wang Xuan exclaimed after reading it, praising its profound meaning and unique insights.
Unfortunately, there is no sequel. It is said that this was found in the cave of the fallen True Saint. Various religions competed to find the sequel, but were all disappointed and could not find it.
Wang Xuan did not immediately begin practicing, but instead studied it repeatedly, feeling that this classic text was of great significance to him.
"Are there no errors in the final three levels of the mental cultivation method? It's very difficult to practice, no wonder it has blocked later generations, and people have abandoned it." Wang Xuan frowned.
Even though only the first part of the Star River Cleansing Body Scripture, it was incredibly famous. Unfortunately, it ultimately blocked the path of those who sought to comprehend it, making it both loved and hated.
It is strange that once you have practiced this scripture, if you want to get rid of it, you must abandon all the strange phenomena that you have cultivated through this scripture, which will reduce some of your cultivation level in order to break free.
"No rush, I need to study it thoroughly." Wang Xuan remained calm.
Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye. A spiritual message was left outside the cave where he was in seclusion.
"Brother, it's time to set off. We're about to go to the Immortal Realm, and then we'll attend a gathering," Wolverine left a message, personally calling him out of seclusion.
"Did time fly by so fast?" Wang Xuan got up, walked out of the cave, and came to the small courtyard.
