Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 185 The Decision of the Northern Sea Turtle

When the old turtle from the Beiming Sea heard that the other party had revealed his past, he was not worried at all. Instead, he showed an expectant look.

He immediately asked Chen Xuan, "Could it be that you can help me, Old Turtle, transform? If you can do that, Old Turtle is willing to take you as his disciple."

Chen Xuan nodded to the old turtle and said, "If you want to transform, you must shed your physical body. Otherwise, there will be no room for you in this vast world."

"This is also the reason why you have cultivated for countless eons, but have only grown in cultivation and are unable to transform. It's because your body is too large for the prehistoric world to bear."

Hearing Chen Xuan's explanation of his method of transformation, the old turtle nodded without hesitation and said, "As long as I can transform, I don't need this body. Master, please teach me how to shed my body."

Chen Xuan shook his head. "There is no master-disciple relationship between you and me. So naturally I will not accept you as my disciple. At the same time, I also want to tell you that shedding your physical body is equivalent to rebirth."

"That is to say, once you shed your physical body, your soul will inevitably enter the Nine Netherworlds for reincarnation. Only after reincarnation will you have the opportunity to transform."

Hearing Chen Xuan say that he needed to reincarnate, the old turtle couldn't help but hesitate. After all, once reincarnated, his memories of his past life would be completely lost.

Even if he could transform at that time, would he still be himself after the transformation? So the old turtle had to hesitate again and again.

At this time, Chen Xuan continued, "In the near future, the prehistoric world will experience a catastrophe. The Buzhou Mountain that supports the sky will break."

"If we want to hold up the sky again, we need to find a new Optimus Prime. And your limbs are definitely the best choice."

"That will be the moment you shed your physical body and re-enter the cycle of reincarnation. Because your physical body has become Optimus Prime, it will also grant you boundless merit and fortune."

"In other words, in the entire prehistoric world, every living being will be grateful to you, the Sky-supporting One. Therefore, your reincarnation will become a true immortal of merit and destiny."

The old turtle sighed after hearing this, "Even if I have good fortune and luck, what good will it do? I will still be the old turtle then, who can tell for sure?"

Suddenly, the old turtle seemed to have thought of something, and immediately asked Chen Xuan: "You actually know what is going to happen, could it be that you are Daozu Hongjun?"

Chen Xuan shook his head. "I'm not Hongjun, but the Taoist Qinglian from Qinglian Island in the East China Sea. So, I'm probably the person Hongjun wants to get rid of the most."

Hearing that the person in front of him was actually Taoist Qinglian, the old turtle couldn't help but get excited. He immediately spoke to Chen Xuan.

"Greetings, Senior Qinglian. This old turtle is too big to perform a salute. Please forgive me, Senior."

Chen Xuan smiled and nodded, "It's okay, it's okay. I'm not one of those people who cares about etiquette. For me, what I pursue is to do whatever I want."

The old turtle continued in an excited voice, "Senior Qinglian, I've heard about your story. I know that the Lord of the Nine Netherworld, Lady Pingxin, is your disciple."

"Senior, could you please promise the old turtle that Lady Pingxin will allow the old turtle to reincarnate with his memories. Don't erase the old turtle's memories of his past life."

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "After you reincarnate, I will have the Three Pure Ones accept you as my personal disciple. As for your past life memories, they will return to your transformed body when your cultivation reaches the level of Primordial Golden Immortal."

"As for whether you want to be an old turtle or your reincarnated self, it's up to you to decide. No one else will interfere."

"By the way, there is one thing I want to remind you. Hongjun is also eyeing you. After all, your limbs are the best Optimus Prime."

"But he might not be as calm and collected as I am. He might even send his disciples to the North Sea to slaughter you." The old turtle was shocked after hearing this, but thinking about the actions of the Heavenly Dao Saint and his condescending attitude, the old turtle felt that what Chen Xuan said was very likely to happen.

So he immediately said to Chen Xuan: "Senior Qinglian, please cut off my limbs now and send me into reincarnation."

Chen Xuan smiled and shook his head, "Why are you so anxious? Even if you want to become Optimus Prime, I think you should do it voluntarily, not be used by others to support the sky."

Chen Xuan's words inevitably made the old turtle a little puzzled, and he immediately asked Chen Xuan: "Senior Qinglian, please give me some guidance. How should I go to the sky by myself?"

Chen Xuan pointed at the top of the old turtle's head and taught the old turtle how to train himself to become Optimus Prime in a way that was enlightening.

Then he said, "There is still some time before the catastrophe arrives. You can hurry up and refine your limbs into Optimus Prime."

"Your tortoise shell must also be refined as a companion spirit treasure for your reincarnation, to be born with you."

The old turtle nodded to Chen Xuan with gratitude, and then began to refine his limbs into Optimus Prime according to Chen Xuan's instructions.

Seeing that the old turtle had believed what he said, Chen Xuan couldn't help but smile. Then he broke through the void and disappeared into the North Sea.

After returning to Qinglian Island, Chen Xuan re-organized what was going to happen next. After making sure there was nothing missing, he went to comprehend the laws of nature with peace of mind.

Time flies. Five thousand years is but a blink of an eye for the ancient cultivators. Now Tongtian has finally succeeded in teaching the Two Ghost Soul Locking Formation to the Yinchao ghosts of the Nine Netherworld.

At the same time, Yuanshi Tianzun has also equipped the ghosts and devils in the Nine Netherworld with soul-catching locks and soul-binding orders.

This was like a direct upgrade for the Nine Netherworld's ghost messengers. They went to the prehistoric world to collect souls again, without any worries.

At the same time, Hou Tu also divided the ghosts in the Nine Netherworld into different groups, and asked them to seduce souls of different realms to avoid being killed by those who were not strong enough.

After the matters in the Nine Netherworld were properly arranged, Hou Tu returned to the Ancestral Witch Hall and began to practice the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation again with Emperor Jiang and the others.

As for the Three Pure Ones, they had naturally followed Chen Xuan's instructions and rushed to Wuzhuang Temple, Jin'ao Island and Mount Sumeru in the west respectively.

Everything is ready, waiting for the ten thousand year period to arrive, when the two tribes of wizards and liches will start the final battle to change the master of this ancient world.

At the same time, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi have also begun to plan. Once the ten thousand year period is up, they will lead the demon army to wipe out the witch clan in one fell swoop and occupy the prehistoric world.

Little did they know that Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi were discussing how to send troops at that time.

An unexpected guest arrived beside the Fusang tree, the Sun Star. He was now describing the good things in the ancient world to the Ten Golden Crows on the Fusang tree.

After hearing this, the Ten Golden Crows' eyes sparkled, and they couldn't wait to visit the ancient world.

They even began to ask each other whether it would bring a catastrophe to the prehistoric world if they went there.
