Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 408: Black Turtle and the Demon God
North Sea.
The vast sea is surging, with wave after wave rising and falling, one after another, rushing towards the shore; the sea breeze is unrestrained, howling and roaring!
In the sea, a huge dragon was cut down by a sword, and trickles of blood surged like a tide, dyeing the sea red.
"roar!"
"roar!"
"roar!"
Crazy sea beasts were stirring up trouble, dark clouds in the sky, and pairs of red eyes were filled with murderous intent. They were infected by the evil spirit, resentment, and murderous aura of Northern Juluzhou, and had lost all their intelligence, becoming wild beasts that only knew how to kill.
"suddenly!"
A sword was ethereal and broke the waves. The black sea water surged continuously and piled up on both sides, getting higher and higher, like two mountains. The "cliff" was as flat as a mirror. The deep seabed was completely exposed because of the sword, and there was an endless crack.
The chaotic and extremely corrupt consciousness mixed with death and resentment vented out from the cracks. The violent energy raged endlessly, eclipsing the heavens.
The Taoist in white robes walked with a sword in hand, his aura ethereal and otherworldly. He made a hand gesture and a white lotus blossomed in the void. Mingyu lightly brushed his sleeve and pushed it into the crack.
The pure white lotus seemed extremely excited when it touched the infinite dead energy and resentment. It released a dazzling light, and the lotus was like a small sun that broke through the darkness in the cracks on the seabed. However, the chaotic and decayed aura did not disappear. In fact, it became more violent and more difficult to control because of the stimulation of the white lotus.
Mingyu had a calm expression, her clear eyes staring into the abyss through the thick fog, trying to see the source of the chaos, but unfortunately she was blocked by a wisp of complex consciousness.
"interesting……"
Mingyu's lips curled up, she didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain.
He stretched out his hand calmly, his five fingers were like hooks and also like a cage, blocking all the tyrannical aura back into the cracks.
The white lotus was eager to try, and after getting Mingyu's consent, it began to greedily absorb these negative and chaotic auras.
A huge vortex appeared in the crack, and endless evil spirits, deathly energy, and resentment were continuously absorbed. Unfortunately, the energy in the crack was too huge, and a small Taoist lotus was simply unable to absorb it all.
Upon seeing this, Mingyu rolled up his sleeves and three thousand pure white Taoist lotuses blossomed. The Taoist lotuses were connected by their Qi, gathered into a formation, and breathed together, absorbing countless resentments with each breath.
The little guy who went out first returned to Mingyu's sleeve reluctantly. He wanted to suck more, but unfortunately he was full and needed to digest.
Three thousand lotuses are still a drop in the bucket for the behemoth in the crack.
But Mingyu was not in a hurry and was willing to wait.
The flowers bloomed in an instant, and the Daolian changed one batch after another, with no more and no less, exactly three thousand each time.
The three thousand lotuses circulate over and over again, and resentment and death energy are endless.
The consciousness in the crack seemed to be fighting with Mingyu. It produced as much energy as Daolian swallowed.
Anyway, I just don’t want Mingyu to go in.
Mingyu was also very patient, and he even enlightened a boy to help.
The one used was the third-grade white lotus, a magical treasure snatched from the Treasure Fen Cliff.
And through the mediation of nature, a bit of intelligence was added to it.
A Taoist lotus secretly emerged from Mingyu's sleeve and flew into the mysterious light of creation.
It was the earliest little guy who transformed and grew white and plump.
He asked the little guy to keep an eye on it, and then he was daydreaming.
"ah!"
Three thousand lotuses emerge!
"Hey!"
The three thousand lotuses return!
The little guy worked hard to direct his companions, hoping that everyone could drain the big guy inside.
At the same time, crystal saliva flowed from the corners of the boy's mouth. He was quite greedy.
The giant in the crack saw that the Taoist priest did not take action and instead sent a boy to deal with it. It felt looked down upon and became immediately angry.
"roar!"
With a roar, the crack became much bigger, and more death and resentment poured out.
The three thousand lotuses were swallowed up, causing the White Lotus Boy to scream in anxiety.
"master!"
The little fat boy complained that his companion was eaten by a big guy!
Mingyu regained consciousness, opened his eyes, and said, "Blast him!"
"good!"
The boy received the order and shouted into the crack.
Then, there was the big bang!
A series of explosions sounded in the crack, and the huge figure was almost overturned, emitting a series of muffled groans.
Mingyu didn't call for stop, so the little fat boy continued to explode.
Dao Lian took three thousand and three thousand of them. He had absorbed enough of them before, and now he was giving them all back. The opponent could hardly bear it, and the crack that had been widened before was closed a lot again.
Mingyu nodded, told the little guy to watch carefully, then closed her eyes, and her soul wandered away again.
He had noticed something just now and had to find someone to ask.
Preferably a local.
So he returned to Xiaoyao Wonderland, the dojo of the demon master Kunpeng.
"It's quiet here, Demon Master."
As Mingyu walked along the way, she felt that this free and easy wonderland lived up to its name.
Looking ahead, green mosses pile up in blue, white clouds float like jade, and light shakes in patches of mist; looking closely, empty windows and quiet rooms, flowers blooming on the slippery benches. Dragon beads hang in the caves, and the ground is full of exotic flowers; looking back, thousands of peaks are like halberds, and thousands of feet are open screens. The sun reflects the mist and locks the green light. The rain stops and the dark green is cold and green. Withered vines entwine old trees, and the ancient world leads to a secluded journey; looking again, the cold air divides the green peaks, the remaining water moistens the green, and the gurgling waterfalls are like hanging curtains.
This was his first time here, and he did not expect that Kunpeng was such an elegant person. The Demon Master Palace in the Heavenly Palace was obviously quite monotonous.
"Greetings, Master Lingzun!"
While I was thinking, a young Taoist came to greet me.
"It's you!"
Mingyu smiled.
Kunyu, the disciple of Demon Master Kunpeng.
It seems to be from the Giant Whale Clan of the Sea. The demon master once served as the chief of the Giant Whale Clan of the Sea for a period of time.
I met him once at the Peach Banquet in Yushan, where he attended the banquet on behalf of Kunpeng.
"Do you remember me?"
Kun Yu was a little surprised, but more delighted.
He thought this person had forgotten it long ago.
At the same time, Kun Yu was quite emotional. He didn't expect that Mingyu had grown to the point where he needed to look up to her.
In comparison, I, a Golden Immortal of the Eighteenth Heaven, am really not good enough!
No wonder the teacher is always dissatisfied with himself.
Kun Yu muttered something in his heart, and then led Ming Yu into the mountain gate.
"How long has your teacher been back?"
"If I count on my fingers, it has been more than ten thousand years."
"So late?"
Mingyu thought to herself that it seemed that the demon master was not in good condition and was seriously injured.
Kun Yu sighed, "To be honest, I have seen this situation more than once, but none of them were as dangerous as this one. During the ancient catastrophe, the teacher almost lost his own path, but after escaping the catastrophe, he was still free and easy. It's nothing like this time..."
He hadn't finished speaking yet. When blood rained down on the North Sea, he thought his teacher would never come back.
"You are the only one who talks too much!"
A powerful rebuke came from between the misty sea of clouds.
Mingyu looked and saw a huge Kun fish elephant swimming among the sea of clouds.
Kunpeng stood with his hands behind his back, and his majestic aura made Kunyu subconsciously shrink his head.
Unfortunately, it was too late. A figure flashed and slapped him on the back of the head, causing Kun Yu to stagger.
"Look at yourself. You are so dishonest all the time. It has been 15,361 years since I came back, and you haven't even broken through to the first level. This is really disappointing to me!"
Kun Yu was a little confused by the unreasonable scolding. He saw that his teacher didn't look at him, but looked at Mingyu with a smile on his face, and he immediately understood.
Well, I shouldn't be here!
Kun Yu cupped his hands and said, "Teacher, I will go into seclusion now to seek a breakthrough!"
"Well, this kid is teachable. Go and rest!"
Kunpeng urged his disciple to leave quickly with a look of disdain, then turned around with a smile and invited Mingyu into the cave for a chat.
"( ˉ▽ ̄~) Tsk~~, no matter how enthusiastic you are, this is still someone else's disciple!"
Kun Yu saw that his teacher seemed like a different person and was extremely enthusiastic towards Mingyu, and he immediately began to complain.
Kunpeng paused and glanced back at him.
"Why haven't you left yet?"
Kun Yu's heart twitched, and he fully felt that he was redundant.
"You guys chat slowly, I'm leaving now!"
Just go, don’t stay a moment longer!
After seeing his disciples leave, Kunpeng regained his enthusiasm and introduced his own temple to Mingyu.
"Look at that ancient vine. It's called Tongtian Vine. It can reach the ninth heaven. There is only one of its kind in the world. I picked it up when I was traveling in the ancient times."
"There is also that bunch of purple gold jade mysterious flowers. They don't have any special effects, but they are valuable because of their innate properties. They are also good for making pills. In order to pick them up, I even had to fight with others and won by luck."
“This is…”
As a famous ancestor, Kunpeng has been controlling the wind and clouds since ancient times, and has collected many innate things.
"Senior, you are truly blessed!"
Mingyu exclaimed in admiration. To be honest, when it comes to innate rare treasures and spiritual plants, Fengqi Mountain may not be comparable to Xiaoyao Wonderland.
After hearing this, Kunpeng smiled even more. Everyone likes to hear good words.
He wanted to introduce them, but Mingyu tactfully said that she had something to ask him.
But Kunpeng seemed to be avoiding the question, talking about other things and beating around the bush with Mingyu.
“Senior, the Queen asked me to go to that crack!”
As a last resort, Mingyu moved out of Nuwa.
Hearing this, Kunpeng was stunned.
"Did the queen ask you to go?"
"Senior really knows."
Mingyu's eyes lit up.
Kunpeng sighed and invited Mingyu into the hall for a detailed discussion.
"Have you seen the spirit of the black tortoise?"
"Yes."
Kunpeng nodded, then took out two cups and a pot of fine wine.
"It's not as good as the Moon Goddess's osmanthus wine, but it's better in purity and mellowness. Let's drink a cup."
Mingyu took it and the two of them drank together.
After three cups, Kunpeng asked again: "Have you seen the corpse of the demon god in there?"
"The corpse of the demon?"
Mingyu smiled. This was even more surprising than she had expected.
"you do not know?"
Kunpeng was stunned, his hand holding the jade pot froze in mid-air, the wine spilled all over the table, the fragrance filled the air.
Mingyu waved it away and said with a smile, "I have a guess, but I haven't gone in to see it yet. It feels a bit tricky, so I wanted to ask the seniors. It turned out to be the right thing to do."
Kunpeng looked at the young man in front of him with a bright smile, and for a moment he didn't know how much he knew.
So, after a moment of silence, Kunpeng asked tentatively: "What do you want, Madam?"
"The Queen only asked me to take a look. I can handle the rest on my own."
Mingyu told him frankly.
"As you wish?"
Kunpeng widened his eyes, thinking he had heard wrongly.
It's not that he looked down on Mingyu, but the corpse of the demon god was really extraordinary and if he was not careful it would lead to a disaster.
Mingyu nodded, "So, I need you to tell me more about that crack, the better."
Seeing that Mingyu insisted on finding out, Kunpeng made up his mind and went for it.
Anyway, Nuwa will take care of everything, and even if the sky falls, it won’t fall on you.
"Has the Queen ever told you about the Black Turtle?"
"No!"
No?
Kunpeng was dumbfounded. I won’t tell you anything, and you still dare to go?
Mingyu looked calm, "Aren't you here, senior?"
Kunpeng pinched his brows, not understanding the Queen's arrangement.
I have to start from the beginning.
"Although Black Turtle and us old guys are of the same generation, we are the first batch of creatures born when the world was first created, but Black Turtle is and is not. His situation is very special."
Mingyu asked, "Demon God?"
Kunpeng nodded: "Yes! This guy is the Chaos Demon God, or a part of the Chaos Demon God! The great god Pangu opened the sky and killed the three thousand demon gods who blocked the way, but death does not mean the end of the way. The prehistoric world has a great connection with them..."
Kunpeng stopped talking without elaborating and turned the topic back to the black turtle.
"The Black Turtle transformed from the body of the Demon God. Unlike us, he was born with shackles on his back, so he has never transformed. And because of the corpse of the Demon God, he can only stay in the North Sea and cannot leave. I communicated with the Black Turtle a long time ago, and he asked me to help..."
"Help kill him?"
Mingyu seemed to be thinking about something.
Kunpeng replied calmly: "That's right. Only by killing that body can his soul be freed. I would like to help this neighbor, but unfortunately I don't have the strength to do so."
Mingyu nodded. He thought of another thing, "Then when the empress repaired the sky and cut off his feet to refine them into pillars of heaven, did that, in a way, cut off the shackles of heaven and earth on him?"
No wonder the four legs of the black turtle can support the sky of the ancient times. The body of a demon god is really not simple.
"If you are liberated, why are you still so resentful?" Mingyu asked again.
The environment of Uttarakuru is largely caused by the resentment and death energy of the black turtle. The resentment and death energy seen in the cracks before were extremely dense.
"The Black Turtle didn't know the Queen, and he was chopped to pieces for no reason. Of course he felt it was wronged." Kunpeng said with a smile.
Suicide and being murdered are not the same thing.
"Besides, if his soul doesn't feel wronged, his body will also feel resentful!"
Kunpeng told a horrible joke.
It was as if to say that the corpse of the demon was alive.
Mingyu’s eyelids twitched, “Senior, you are joking, right?”
If the black turtle's body was transformed from the remains of the demon god and it still has a soul, then it is no wonder that heaven and earth want to put him in shackles.
What would happen if this could be released?
Kunpeng lowered his eyelids, took a sip from the jade cup, and said, "Just treat it as a joke."
Mingyu looked up at the sky and calmed down again.
That old fellow was chopped to death by Pangu in the chaos, and luckily escaped into the prehistoric world. He has been suppressed in the North Sea by heaven and earth in the form of a black tortoise for who knows how many years. I'm afraid they will wait until the time comes to use him as the operation target!
He was first crippled by Pangu, then suppressed by heaven and earth, and finally killed by the Queen!
Everything is arranged clearly.
If he doesn't hold such a strong grudge, he would be unworthy of the name of Chaos Demon.
"So the demon body in the crack is a defective one, but the black tortoise's spirit hasn't left yet?"
"The dead cannot die any more, and the disabled cannot become any more disabled!"
"How many places like this are there in Honghuang?"
"not much……"
"There really is something else!"
"…You'd better not even think about it now. I don't even dare to go."
"I didn't say I'm going right now. Senior, you can tell me ten or eight places first."
This time bomb should be defused as soon as possible.
Mingyu would never admit that she was planning to pick up a corpse!
"Ten or eight? Do you think the Chaos Demon God is a weed? Or are you questioning the power of the Great God Pangu?"
Kunpeng suspected that it was intentional on the part of the great god Pangu that a few half-crippled ones were left out to come to the prehistoric world, otherwise the black tortoise's feet could not be used to support the sky.
"How many places do you know, senior?"
"There are two more..."
"Tell me in detail!"
"...Okay, okay, okay, I'm scared of you. If your man comes to attack me with a knife, you have to stop him!"
"No, don't worry, the queen still respects the seniors very much."
"I hope..."
