Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant-Chapter 1536 - 86 Mystic Tortoise Obsession_3

Wang Ba glanced at the Ice Daoist, who was carefully comprehending the ice lotus above his head that seemed about to bloom into a Dao Domain, then nodded slightly.

Xuan Yuanzi then continued:

“The Little Cang World, situated in the midst of the Realm Sea, naturally attracted the attention of many Innate Divine Demons.”

“In fact, ever since the Little Cang World’s formation, there have been many Innate Divine Demons who have entered this world. From the distant ones, like those called the ‘Ancient Emperors’, to the recent ones, haha, like the person we just mentioned.”

Wang Ba felt a shock in his heart and almost immediately reacted:

“Senior means Qin Lin Ancestor?”

Xuan Yuanzi nodded slightly, seemingly appreciative of Wang Ba’s keen reaction, and replied:

“If my observation is correct, his original existence was that of an ‘Chulong’ from beyond this realm.”

“The True Spirit entered the realm, transformed into a human form, then joined a human Cultivator’s sect, becoming enlightened about past and present lives, integrating them, and achieving Cultivation Ascension to The Heavens.”

Wang Ba, however, showed a peculiar expression:

“Qin Lin Ancestor himself being an outsider, how could he establish a family among the human race and take on disciples to transmit the Dao?”

“Why couldn’t he?”

Xuan Yuanzi shook his head and countered:

“As you said, Cultivators travel across the skies and beneath the earth, different from mortals; but why do they still take mortal disciples and teach them Cultivation Methods?”

He then stated the reason:

“How could the walk on the Great Dao be confined to the narrow views of a single family or household?”

“Once you step onto the Dao of Cultivation, there’s only the pursuit of the Dao. Ideas of race and sect are all trivial matters.”

“Moreover, since one has abandoned their original form, though they inherit the legacy, after all, they are living anew; they are already different.”

“Of course, nothing is absolute in this world, Qin Lin identifies himself as human, and there will inevitably be those who refuse to acknowledge it. These matters are not what we are discussing today.”

Wang Ba listened thoughtfully, thinking of how Qin Lin Ancestor seemingly did not pay much attention to either Youxian Temple or the Qin Family, far from how his disciple Chongyuan Patriarch devoted himself to the Wanxiang Sect.

And Xuan Yuanzi continued:

“Qin Lin is an example of a True Spirit entering the realm and reincarnating as a human, but those with such great resolve are after all a minority. There are also some Innate Divine Demons who couldn’t let go of their physical bodies and chose to sneak into the realm. As for this method, haha…”

He couldn’t help but chuckle before continuing:

“This method isn’t necessarily unfeasible, but foreign entities from outside the realm wanting to enter will naturally be expelled by the will of heaven and earth. The stronger the world, the more severe the reaction, and the vast majority of Innate Divine Demons, unless they have exceptional Talent, nearly all of them cannot withstand it.”

“Among these Innate Divine Demons, there was a Fifth Tier Mystic Tortoise, which, relying on its tough shell, mixed in with other Divine Demons breaking into this world and fortuitously slipped in.”

Wang Ba’s mind stirred, immediately realizing that this Senior Xuan Yuanzi was finally getting to the crucial point.

“This Fifth Tier Mystic Tortoise was just a minor character among the group of Innate Divine Demons, many were stronger than it. At that time, this part of the world could still accommodate Seventh Tier beings, which is different from today and extremely dangerous. Thus, the newly entered Mystic Tortoise was terrified and hid in the remote North Sea, holding its breath and concealing its Qi, daring not to leak the slightest bit.”

Xuan Yuanzi looked nostalgic as if reminiscing:

“However, it was after all an Innate Divine Demon, not knowing how to adapt, and after many years of bitter cultivation, made no progress at all. Although Innate Divine Demons have long lifespans and are not in immediate danger of death, if there is no breakthrough or change, it would only be a matter of time.”

“Therefore, to truly integrate into this realm and change the limitations imposed on itself by its Innate Divine Demon origin, it eventually made a decision.”

“What decision?”

Wang Ba couldn’t help but ask.

Xuan Yuanzi spoke word by word:

“Regressing into a Dao Seed, using the living beings of this world as the maternal body, to re-evolve.”

“Dao Seed?!”

At this moment, Wang Ba felt a violent shake in his heart.

“Exactly, the beings of the Realm Sea are born from the Realm Sea, similar to the birth of a world itself, ‘Dao’ merges with the Chaos to evolve everything.”

“Regressing into a Dao Seed means reverting oneself back to the most primal state, resurrecting through the maternal body of this world, taking the flesh and blood of the living beings of this world as one’s own flesh and blood, as if washing away the innate Divine Demons’ outer form, thus not targeted by heaven and earth, and thus able to cultivate like cultivators of this world, but essentially, it still retains the foundation of the Innate Divine Demons.”

Xuan Yuanzi explained.

Wang Ba’s mind, however, instantly thought of the “Moro Giant Elephant Dao Seed” and couldn’t help but speak of it.

“Moro Giant Elephant… I have no recollection of it anymore, it must have entered the realm while I was dormant.”

After recalling for a moment, Xuan Yuanzi then shook his head and said:

“Based on what you said, the stratagem of this Innate Divine Demon seems to be a bit more intricate, dividing into numerous Dao Seeds, both to resurrect and to use the hands of cultivators to obtain nourishment for cultivation. Pity, it must have been a cultivator who saw through its scheme and killed it prematurely.”

“However, as long as the Dao Seed exists, it will eventually return.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba respectfully asked:

“May I know if senior has any countermeasures?”

To his surprise, Xuan Yuanzi actually imparted a set of Dharma specifically targeting this to Wang Ba.

In response to Wang Ba’s gratitude, he was very casual:

“It doesn’t matter, this heaven and earth can no longer bear its disturbance. One less Innate Divine Demon, one less uncertainty, now where were we… Oh right, Mystic Tortoise regressed into a Dao Seed, re-evolving through the living beings of this realm.”

“Its plan was good, but it overlooked one thing; heaven and earth is itself a giant Dao Seed. Regressing and re-evolving within such a grand Dao Seed will inevitably be affected by the rules of heaven and earth, leading to slight changes… and this change was beyond its expectations.”

Wang Ba listened earnestly, but compared to before, he faintly guessed what this change was.

As expected, Xuan Yuanzi said in a complex tone:

“It died.”

“True Spirit perished… A new True Spirit, born of this heaven and earth, was born within this re-evolved flesh.”

“It inherited the legacy and will of the previous Mystic Tortoise True Spirit, and after great effort obtained the cultivation method, it finally began its path of cultivation.”

“A thousand years, ten thousand years…”

“Fifth Tier, Sixth Tier, Seventh Tier… until this world could hardly contain it anymore.”

“Its flesh had reached a realm that cultivators of the Little Cang World couldn’t even imagine, every inch and every bit filled with incomparably thick Qi and Blood and Spiritual Power, even the top beings among Sixth Tier cultivators couldn’t break through the layer of Qi and Blood on the surface of its body.”

“Yet, in order to ascend safely, it still tirelessly sought every method, crazily enhancing its own flesh.”

“Even, it could not harm itself.”

“However, the Guiding Thunder Tribulation that was expected from the Realm Sea, failed to arrive, initially bewildered, it thought itself not yet worthy, so it continued to cultivate hard, but later it finally understood the reason—it remained at its core an Innate Divine Demon, though its Cultivation Base had increased, in the eyes of the Realm Sea it was still one of the World Eaters roaming the Realm Seas, and it wouldn’t send down the Guiding Tribulation for it; perhaps, only when even this Realm Sea could no longer bear it would there be a chance to leave.”

“But within the Little Cang World, it was outright impossible to accomplish.”

“Just when it realized this, it was already too late, after a long wait, its body adapting to the ever-degrading heaven and earth, had gradually overlapped and fused with some of the rules of heaven and earth.”

“Heaven and earth wanted to be rid of it, it also wished to leave, but unfortunately…”

“It was no longer able to.”

“Forever trapped here.”

Xuan Yuanzi stared at Wang Ba and said in a low voice:

“Do you understand this feeling, young friend?”

Wang Ba was silent for a moment, then asked:

“So senior means to ask for my help in…”

“Assisting me in disintegration.”

Xuan Yuanzi said these four words with an utterly calm expression.
