Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 671 The Mysterious Little Turtle

Swish!
Seeing the mechanical tortoise flee in panic, the Sword Immortal King unleashed a sword strike. Although she had no intention of avenging the Demon Abyss, the matter was extremely strange, which did not mean she was without curiosity.

However, the mechanical turtle is no longer what it used to be. It directly escaped into the most chaotic and complex void currents, using its extraordinary divine sense to traverse extremely dangerous passages, causing the Sword Immortal King who was chasing after it to frown.

What a bold guy...

Entering this complex void turbulence could be fatal if one is not careful. Although the Sword Immortal King was confident that she could traverse it normally, she dared not gamble.

With the Mandate of Heaven about to be revealed, her primary goal is to obtain it. If she were to fight with this tortoise there and get lost in the void turbulence for hundreds of years, by the time she emerges, the battle for the Mandate of Heaven may have already been settled.

"never mind."

In the end, the Sword Immortal King did not enter the void turbulence to pursue the mechanical turtle. After all, her mission was only to collect the body of the Demon Abyss, not to investigate the cause of his death.

His cause of death, and the avenging of him, will be left to the rest of the clan.

However, depending on the situation, whether or not we can find the corpse of Mo Yuan is another question.

"Is the One-Eyed King dead...?"

Meanwhile, outside the Holy Spirit Mountains, as the ruins of the Creation Immortal King collapsed, cultivators from all sides were still discussing the matter, utterly shocked.

When the One-Eyed King arrived in a domineering manner and entered the Creation Ruins, they thought he was brewing some grand conspiracy. In the end, he died directly inside the Creation Immortal King Ruins.

"As expected of the Creation Immortal King."

Some people couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Although he failed to break through to the Immortal Emperor level, it doesn't mean he was weak. If his opponent hadn't been so incredibly powerful, and if his destiny hadn't been taken away by the Lonely Immortal Emperor, perhaps the one who would have become the Immortal Emperor would have been the Creation Immortal King."

"Forcibly entering the ruins of the Creation Immortal King resulted in the death and dissipation of the One-Eyed King, but... these ruins of the Creation Immortal King also seem to have collapsed?"

"What exactly happened inside? We'll find out soon enough!" The three Immortal Kings of the Extreme Dao Sect ignored the departing Absolute Sword Immortal King and instead decided to investigate the collapsed Creation Ruins.

"This is……"

Upon entering the ruins, the three people's pupils contracted.

Within the ruins, there were only broken walls and ruins, and even more absurdly, everywhere was filled with... fluctuations of holy power.

Moreover, the quality of this holy power is exceptionally high.

In order to deal with the Heavenly Demon Sect, all the major Immortal Emperor lineages have conducted research on holy power.

However, the greatest achievement of the research was only the revival of holy magic power that could target ordinary demon blood.

But the holy power fluctuations before our eyes... are unprecedented, far purer and more terrifying than the holy power researched by the various Immortal Emperor lineages!
The three immortal kings exchanged glances and took a deep breath.

Aside from the fluctuations of holy power, they saw no corpses and did not know whether the One-Eyed King had been completely wiped out or whether his body had been taken away by the enemy.

"Holy power?!"

Before the three Immortal Kings could analyze anything useful, the Sword Immortal King returned and also discovered the repulsive holy power in this place, causing him to frown.

This matter... probably can't be resolved simply with Mo Yuan's death.

That tortoise just now actually wielded holy power powerful enough to suppress the royal demon bloodline, which is definitely a dangerous signal for the demon race.

It should be noted that among the current Heavenly Demon Clan, only the Demon Lord and Demon Master have bloodline levels exceeding the King level. The rest of the Demon Clan, whether they are Immortal Lords or Immortal Kings, have a maximum bloodline level of King-level Demon Blood.

If holy power of this quality were to be widely controlled, then the demon race would be no different from having only their Demon Lord left as a lone commander. "We must find that tortoise!"

Meanwhile, the three Celestial Kings secretly resolved to find the Mechanical Turtle, since it was currently the only one that possessed the power to suppress the King-level Demon Blood.

It should be noted that many Celestial Emperors have tried, but none have been able to revive this level of holy power...

What did that turtle do to deserve this? How did it manage to do it?!

However, this advanced holy power is actually attributed to the "Seven Emperors of Heaven," which is a secret technique of the Heavenly Emperor.

Lin Jing was initially surprised by this, since even many Immortal Emperors had not been able to revive their advanced Saint Power. However, upon closer reflection, the Heavenly Emperor was a ruthless individual who could fight four opponents at once, including the Demon Ancestor. His foundation was naturally beyond that of ordinary Immortal Emperors.

At the very least, one must be an Immortal Emperor who possesses a supreme treasure of the Heavenly Dao to be comparable to a Heavenly Emperor.

Ordinary Celestial Emperors cannot revive such holy power, but the Heavenly Emperor... the Seven Emperors of the Heavenly Emperor, whom he meticulously created, may not be unable to do so.

"We need to find the mechanical turtle quickly."

Lin Jing followed the direction the mechanical turtle had fled. He had already tried to contact the mechanical turtle through the communication device, but the mechanical turtle ignored him.

This guy... is probably focused entirely on escaping and has no time to reply to messages.

He wasn't in a hurry; he would pursue it slowly.

Shortly after the collapse of the Creation Immortal King Ruins, everything that happened there spread at an alarming rate.

A tortoise, seemingly in the ruins of the Creation Immortal King, annihilated the One-Eyed King of the Demon Clan. Most outrageous of all, this tortoise appears to have just broken through to the Immortal King realm by devouring the One-Eyed King's Dao Fruit. In other words, it hunted down the Immortal King while at the Immortal Lord realm.

And the method of hunting... is holy power!

Thanks to the powerful divine sense shield, the mechanical turtle did not reveal that it was a mechanical beast. However, due to the intensity of the battle, the fluctuations of holy power could not be concealed. Nevertheless, a single fluctuation of holy power should not be enough for anyone to guess that it was Lin Jing's pet beast.

After all, while only one person in the lower realm possesses holy power, many people in the immortal realm can also wield holy power, though their mastery of it is not very advanced.

However, judging from where it appeared, even if it didn't actively reveal its identity as a mechanical beast, most people would probably imagine it as a mechanical beast guarding the ruins, since the ruins at that time... hadn't even been opened yet.

The only things that could stay inside, besides the One-Eyed King, the intruder, are the mechanical beasts guarding the ruins.

…………

Ruins of the Hundred-Eyed Immortal King.

The Hundred-Eyed Immortal King, with innate double pupils, possessed a hundred special pupils and was a powerful Immortal King. This ruin was also created by him to select a successor.

While waiting for the mechanical turtle, Lin Jing left Wu Lingxi, whom he had brought with him, here, letting her train near the ruins of the Hundred-Eyed Immortal King, and gave her some means of self-protection.

She was over a hundred years old, a True Immortal at the ninth level of the Heavenly Realm. She was no longer a little girl, but an old fairy. Lin Jing had more important matters to attend to, so he didn't stay by her side all the time.

"Have you heard? What's going on at the ruins of the Immortal King of Creation...?"

Wu Lingxi, who was in the Hundred-Eyed Ruins, had been waiting for her master to return. She wondered what Lin Jing was busy with. One day, she overheard someone talking about the Creation Immortal King Ruins where demons had previously invaded. She immediately went over to them.

"The One-Eyed King, who forcibly broke into the Immortal King Ruins, did something unknown inside the ruins and was killed by a guarding mechanical beast. That mechanical beast even devoured his Dao Fruit and became an Immortal King!"

"Huh??? Is that true? You're telling me this was done by a relic guardian organization? The longer you live, the stranger things you see become."

“It’s genuine. My cousin saw it with his own eyes. Here it is, a portrait of that tortoise… ten immortal jades per portrait.”
