From Family Fisherman to Water Virtue True Immortal-Chapter 186 - 183: Xuanwu Exotic Beast_3
Chapter 186: Chapter 183: Xuanwu Exotic Beast_3
"A young turtle that hasn’t even hatched yet is actually able to nurture a Demon Core. What kind of potential is this? I’m afraid Golden Core is just the beginning!"
Li Quanqing was astounded beyond measure, feeling fortunate at this moment that he did not resist the Turtle Ancestor head-on, but instead chose a stealthy sneak attack.
There might even have been a chance for the proverbial overturned boat in the culvert.
"Roar!!"
The Red Dragon Puppet roared, swallowing the three treasures into the Snow Dust Heavenly Robe and daring not to linger any longer. It dived back into the sea and disappeared from sight.
Merely the time it took to drink a cup of tea had passed since Li Quanqing’s departure when Shuihua True Master arrived riding on the sword light, his gaze solemn as he examined the lingering traces of thunder.
"The power of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, no, perhaps even stronger..."
"By the looks of it, it must be some kind of Talismanic Treasure? Is there another force involved? And who died here?"
Shuihua True Master’s spiritual power scanned over the battlefield inch by inch, but unfortunately, he found nothing.
The ferocious power of the thunder not only destroyed all traces but also erased all residual auras.
He would never know that a fisherman, overly cautious to the extreme, had taken away the Situ Family’s greatest fortune from here.
In the end, Shuihua True Master left empty-handed, burying this incident deep in his heart.
Now the most pressing matter was the survival of the Sect.
...
Li Quanqing intentionally made a large detour before quietly returning to the battlefield.
It was only after he re-entered the Gui Water Divine Thunder Array that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
[Xuanwu Exotic Beast Shell: A shell of an exotic beast tinged with the bloodline of the Xuanwu True Spirit. A superior material for refining into a Lifebound Magical Treasure, capable of growing stronger with the cultivator’s progress in cultivation, with infinite possibilities.]
Li Quanqing held the turtle shell, his gaze slightly surprised, as he only now realized that the Turtle Ancestor had actually awakened a True Spirit Bloodline.
"The Longevity Turtle is in luck!"
He took out a Jade Bottle and carefully collected the essence blood from the turtle shell, filling nearly half a bottle, which surprisingly had a fragrant scent.
As for the Lifebound Magical Treasure and the likes, he had no leads yet, so he would set the turtle shell aside for now. He could let the Longevity Turtle rub against it from time to time.
[Xuanwu Exotic Beast Demon Core: A Demon Core born alongside the bloodline, with an unmatched attraction to turtle-type Demon Beasts, can be refined by the Longevity Turtle as a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object.]
Li Quanqing toyed with the Demon Core in his hand, the pure demon energy contained within was approximately at the Foundation Establishment Realm level, unfortunately, it could not be used to create a False Core Cultivator.
In this round, the biggest winner was not him but the naive Longevity Turtle.
Li Quanqing shook his head, prepared to store the Demon Core into the Storage Bag, right at the moment when his guard was at its lowest.
A fragmented Divine Soul suddenly turned into a streak of light and burst out from the Demon Core, rushing into his Mud Pill Palace with the speed of lightning.
Boom!!
"Destroying my physical body, severing my path, I am filled with such hatred!! Let’s use you to compensate me!!"
Li Quanqing felt an excruciating headache, as if his head were about to explode, a profound terror descending upon him.
Within the Mud Pill Palace, the spiritual sea was tumultuous and unceasing, with the ferocious visage of the Taiyuan Turtle already visible, its eyes blood-red with towering hatred!
Hum!!
Fortunately, the Green Moon Palace manifested in time, with Taiyin Bright Moon hanging high above, like a circular Divine Ring emitting a pale green glow, confining the remnant soul of the Turtle Ancestor within.
The ancient hall radiated light, like a prison capturing a turtle in a jar.
The Turtle Ancestor of Taiyuan’s terrifying expression solidified on his face, an unprecedented sense of defeat welling up, all hopes dashed.
Three defeats in one day!
"Old tortoise, still want to take possession of me, didn’t expect that, did you!"
Li Quanqing patted his chest with a sense of lingering fear; if it weren’t for obtaining the Green Moon Ancient Hall previously, there might have been a real chance of successful possession today.
However, after pondering, he thought the likelihood wasn’t great; with the Golden Finger guarding the True Spirit, probably even a True Immortal would find it challenging to take possession.
"Destructive God Wheel, go!"
The Divine Sense avatar held the Sea Suppressing Bell, with four Destructive God Wheels spinning rapidly around it, swiftly cutting and erasing the Turtle Ancestor’s fragmented soul.
Though the Turtle Ancestor was a reincarnated Third-rank Great Demon with a solid and tough divine consciousness, having gone through feigned death to escape, and obliteration by the Heavenly Tribulation, he was now at the end of his strength.
Under the confinement of the Green Moon Palace, he couldn’t move at all, only watch helplessly as his True Spirit was gradually eradicated.
Eventually, he was successfully slain, his divine soul consciousness wiped out, thus erased from the mortal world, dead beyond death.
Under the purification of the green bright moon, the fragments of spiritual power left by the Turtle Ancestor were refined one by one, slowly nourishing Li Quanqing’s sea of consciousness.
Within these fragments, there were also many incomplete memories, and Li Quanqing, like an outsider, briefly glimpsed the long and ancient life of the Taiyuan Turtle Ancestor.
"The Situ Family indeed has a clan member who joined the Blood Sea Sect, an Earth Grade Blood Spirit Root, this really could lead to disaster..."
"The Foundation Establishment Pills of the Li Family that went missing, it turned out to truly have nothing to do with the Situ Family; they bought their pills from the Blood Sea Sect..."
"Although the Turtle Ancestor had thoughts of colluding with the Demon Clan, he ultimately couldn’t overcome his family bonds, and the entire Situ Family did not betray..."
Li Quanqing’s eyes were deep as he finally sorted out all the clues and understood the cause and effect.
It turned out that the mastermind behind everything was just the Shuihua Sword Sect enacting and directing everything themselves, looking to frame the Situ Family.
Ultimately, they sought a convenient excuse to annihilate the clan, coveting the Third-rank Demon Core to benefit their own sect.
As for the possible revenge and disaster that could come later?
If Shuihua True Master died and there were no Golden Core to preside, the entire Sword Sect would be destroyed, what future could there be to speak of?
Li Quanqing exhaled a breath of turbid air, feeling that the Shuihua True Master was indeed extremely cunning and malicious in his schemes.
Fortunately, this old fellow was finally going to die, and this would be the Li Family’s opportunity.
Li Quanqing felt the Qiankun Bracelet again; it contained the capital for the Situ Family’s resurgence, a pity it still bore a mark that needed to be slowly erased.
"Roar!!"
Inside the grand array, thunder flickered, and the Foundation Establishment Realm Taiyuan Turtle roared, its body severely wounded, but it still relied on its shell and tenacious vitality to hold on.
Ao Qing roared, feeling that he had let his master down, and the Dragon Flame Eagle next to him felt the same, continuously spewing Dragon Flame True Fire, but to no avail against the turtle shell.
Li Quanqing couldn’t be bothered to pretend anymore, he directly took out the Sea Covering Seal and smashed the Great Demon to death, the turtle shell cracked, blood flowing like a waterfall.
After dealing with this, he collected all the Demon Beasts and puppets, then directly opened the array, revealing himself amidst the battlefield.
"Quanqing, it’s really great that you’re unharmed!"
A purple electric light flickered, and a figure riding a Flying Sword swiftly approached, it was Li Kunlun returning from vanquishing enemies.
Seeing Li Quanqing completely unharmed, he immediately felt a sense of relief.
