Chapter 1995: Viciousness

“B*stard!” Black Turtle roared. The tall waves that seemed to reach into the heavens flooded the entire region. The terrifying waves surrounded Ye Futian and morphed into the form of a divine Turtle. It contained an icy aura of the Great Path. Ice sealed the entire space.

The people from a distance looked on and saw that the battlefield in front of them was sealed by ice and that Ye Futian was buried within.

“This guy, he is only a middle-level Renhuang. Yet he dared to face off a level-seven Demon Emperor.” Everyone felt a ripple course through their hearts. However, that person had great combat abilities; a casual slap from his palm could suppress an entire region, and Black Turtle was knocked back by the impact.

However, at that moment, the towering Black Turtle halo sealed the entire area with ice; it seemed like Ye Futian would be frozen to death.

Ye Futian was at the center of the area sealed by ice, and his entire person seemed to have turned into an ice sculpture. The extremely cold will of the Great Path seeped into his body, seemingly wanting to seal his organs and vessels with ice and freeze his life itself.

Yet at that moment, a terrifying Divine Flame of the Great Path burned and radiated outward from Ye Futian. Seeping into the ice sculpture, the flames blazed brightly, melting the ice sculpture, and even dyed it red.

In a short while, the huge halo of the Black Turtle turned scarlet, burning in the Divine Ocean.

“This…” Many, who watched this scene unfold before them, felt a tremor course through their heart. The Black Turtle let out a low roar and his entire head shrunk back into his shell as he said, “You may enter.”

“I still have some friends.” Ye Futian pointed at the row of people in front. The Black Turtle stretched his head out and glanced at them. He discovered that among them were some with shallow cultivation levels. He had to say, “Your combat abilities are high enough, so you can be an exception to the rule. However, you can’t go overboard with it; this is the rule of the Turtle Deity Island.”

“Just now, I was too careless with the extent of my attacks; I hope senior will forgive me. Although this elixir is not especially valuable, it can strengthen your life force. Please accept them as my apology.” Ye Futian retrieved an elixir, and instantly, a strong elixir fragrance washed over everyone.

The Black Turtle’s eyes glimmered, and his neck continued stretching outwards. It twisted around to look at the elixir above him. The lives of turtles were extremely long, and their lifeforce was especially strong. These types of elixirs were significant to them.

“You have exceptional talent, so I’m sure you are from a top-tier faction. There are also top-tier Renhuangs here with you. Since you are all traveling together, you are all welcome. I’ll lead you onto the island,” said the Black Turtle. The people from afar were stunned. “What is this sudden change in attitude…”

“Thank you, senior.” Ye Futian opened his hands, and the Black Turtle swallowed the elixir immediately. Xia Qingyuan and the rest climbed onto his back. The Black Turtle turned around and dived into the Divine Ocean and entered the forbidden space, heading in the direction of Turtle Deity Island.

Many practitioners were speechless as they watched the receding silhouettes. How can even demons be this materialistic? Just one elixir was enough to convince him to ignore the rules? How can this be allowed? they all thought.

The Black Turtle carried Ye Futian and his friends forward, and very quickly, they neared Turtle Deity Island.

“Senior Turtle, many members of top-tier factions have already arrived on Turtle Deity Island already, right?” Ye Futian asked.

“Mmm,” the Black Turtle nodded. “Quite a few have arrived already. Even if they have yet to reach, they should at least be in the Divine Ocean Continent. There are only a few days left to Emperor Xi overcoming his tribulations, and no one wants to miss it. You have exceptional strength too, so I’m guessing that you have forged a Perfect Grade Divine Wheel, right? Surely you must also hail from an extraordinary faction. Where are you from?”

“I come from the Dongxiao Continent,” Ye Futian replied.

“The Dongxiao Continent… That should be the Millet Emperor’s territory, right? Are you a practitioner from Wangshen Watchtower?” the Black Turtle indeed understood quite a bit. He knew a little about the various top-tier practitioners in the Donghua Domain. After all, there weren’t many practitioners of such level…

“I guess I count as one of them,” Ye Futian replied.

“I hear that there is a practitioner in the Wangshen Watchtower named Zong Chan. Do you know him?” the Black Turtle asked.

“Senior, you have heard of him as well?” Ye Futian asked.

“I’ve heard of him from the people who entered the island these past few days. They say that Zong Chan of the Wangshen Watchtower had already become a high-level Renhuang with a perfect Great Path. It is said that he has unlimited potential, and it is almost certain that he will become yet another titan of the Donghua Domain in the future,” the Black Turtle said.

“I understand. Thank you, Senior, for your reminder.” Ye Futian nodded. The Black Turtle brought them to the shore of the Turtle Deity Island. The formless Pressure of the Great Path dissipated. Ye Futian no longer felt the pressure.

“We have arrived,” said the Black Turtle.

“Thank you for your trouble,” Ye Futian nodded and stepped out. The group of them stepped onto the Turtle Deity Island, and the Black Turtle dived into the sea, heading back from where they came from. Quickly, he vanished from their sights.

Ye Futian walked around on the island, and, like they expected, there were many people on the island. Practitioners of various cultivation levels were all present on the island. In the past, there were no restrictions on who could enter the island. However, at some point in time, there were too many people on the island. It was then that Turtle Deity Island decided to limit the number of practitioners entering the island based on their cultivation level to prevent the island from being overcrowded.

“Where is Emperor Xi cultivating at?” Ye Futian asked Lin Yuan.

“Turtle Peak,” Lin Yuan replied. “Even though I have never been here before, you could probably just ask anyone around here. They should all know where it is.

“Mmm,” Ye Futian nodded. Since they were already on Turtle Deity Island, it was easy to find where Emperor Xi was cultivating.

They walked towards the center of Turtle Deity Island. Along the way, they asked around for the location of Turtle Peak. After some time, they arrived at a city at the foot of Turtle Peak. This city was named “Turtle Deity City,” and it was located at the bottom of Turtle Peak.

Arriving in the city, Ye Futian noticed that the practitioners of Turtle Deity City had an obviously high level of cultivation. A vast majority were visitors, and just by casually looking around, he could see high-level Renhuangs.

Any virtuoso that they met would likely hail from a powerful faction in the Donghua Domain.

“Let’s find a place to settle down for a while,” the Alchemy Emperor said. “Let’s wait for Zong Chan and the rest to meet up with us.”

“Mmm,” Ye Futian nodded. Lin Yuan already knew that Ye Futian and the rest came from Wangshen Watchtower. People like these would naturally not be a typical person, and they certainly belonged to different worlds.

“I did not expect that we would also have a chance to come to Turtle Deity Island to witness this grand event. Thank you, seniors, for bringing the two of us along,” Lin Yuan and his cultivation partner Lü Qing wrapped their fists in gratitude towards Ye Futian.

“There is no need for thanks; it was not much work anyway,” Ye Futian replied casually. Indeed, to him, it was nothing bringing the two of them along.

“Your help is, however, significant to us. However, I’m afraid we are unable to repay you and can only be thankful in our hearts.” Lin Yuan was very realistic. After all, the difference between them was too huge. Ye Futian was such a powerful character. How could he possibly repay this favor?

Ye Futian smiled lightly; he was not really bothered by it.

“Now that we are already on Turtle Deity Island, the two of us shall not intrude on you seniors. We will take our leave now.” Lin Yuan wrapped his fist as he bade farewell. Ye Futian nodded. “Alright. I hope you will gain something this time.”

“Seniors, take care.” The two of them bowed lightly and turned around to leave. The two of them initially were not familiar with Ye Futian; they only met him on their journey here. Furthermore, they were not even from the same world. Ye Futian was already very magnanimous in bringing them to Turtle Deity Island. Lin Yuan knew not to take advantage of Ye Futian’s help too much. He knew that he should not continue staying beside Ye Futian. It would also intrude on them.

Ye Futian, on the other hand, did not think about these at all, and he was not really bothered by it. They were indeed not close, so he did not try to get them to stay.

After the two parties separated, Lin Yuan and Lü Qing continued walking around Turtle Deity Island. Lin Yuan sighed. “Sometimes I think that I have put in sufficient effort into cultivating, but when compared to these people at the pinnacle, I discover that my efforts are nothing.”

“The Divine Prefecture is so big, so there certainly are many exceptional talents. These people are already standing at the pinnacle, so what is there to compare? We should first maintain our own psyches, persevere in cultivation, surpass mortality, and forge our Saint Plane,” Lü Qing replied quietly.

“Mmm. Seeing all these exceptional practitioners has indeed affected my psyche. Let’s leave this place quickly, lest we develop overly lofty goals.” Lin Yuan lightly nodded.

As they were walking, Lin Yuan seemed to have sensed something; he felt that something seemed off and stopped walking. Right after, Lü Qing also sensed it. In the next moment, A powerful sealing power shrouded the entire space, and an elderly man appeared ahead of them. His eyes let out a demon-like aura; it was terrifying.

“Senior, how can we help you?” Lin Yuan lightly wrapped his fist. He had an intense ominous feeling, but he tried his best to control his fear.

Oin!

The elderly man morphed into a black beam of light and instantly appeared in front of them. His hands stretched outwards and tightly grasped both their heads. They couldn’t even react.

Lin Yuan and Lü Qing’s face turned ashen. He let out a frightened expression. A grey silhouette charged into their minds, and a voice broke out, “Who was the man that you were following previously?”

“Senior, we were only following him on our way here; we are not close at all,” Lin Yuan said. However, an even more terrifying power infiltrated him, and his body trembled violently. Lü Qing even let out a scream of anguish.

Lin Yuan could not hope to fight against this power, and he, too, felt Lü Qing’s pain. He pleaded, “I only know that they come from Wangshen Watchtower of the Dongxiao Continent, please…”

Bang! The moment he said his words, the elderly man exerted a little force in his palms, and the two of them were instantly pulverized into a grey stream, which then vanished. They were killed in a split second.

The elderly man’s silhouette flashed, and the sealing power vanished. He also completely disappeared, as though nothing had happened before.

However, there were numerous practitioners on the Turtle Deity Island, so there were still people who noticed what had happened. Streaks of silhouette flew over here. As they watched the vanishing silhouette, their hearts beat wildly, especially those with weak cultivation. They felt a tinge of fear.

These two practitioners were murdered just like that. Not even their bodies remained. Who did they offend?!
