“Agree to his proposal and drive this disgrace of the human clan out of the Taoist Conference!”
“I think it’s inappropriate, Sunn Lanyu’s speech must have a hidden trap, it’s safer to be cautious.”
“Even if Sunn Lanyu has some tricks, at most, he just has a water tribe Qi Practitioner and a protective spirit treasure. This immortal has defeated so many Qi strongers. Is she afraid he will send another one to die?”
“Even if the immortal’s condition isn’t good, there shouldn’t be any problem protecting herself against the Qi monster tribes. At worst, she can withdraw and throw the mess back to the Imperial Astronomical Bureau. You don’t need to worry.”
The opinions within the Primal Chaos Tower were cacophonous; some supported Gong Buyu to accept the challenge, others wanted Gong Buyu to first ensure her own safety and refuse the challenge, or even wanted to give Gong Buyu miracle remedies to help her recover.
But Shen Yuan couldn’t help but furrow his brow, looking at the hundreds of water tribes gathered behind Sunn Lanyu.
Just before Sunn Lanyu appeared, Shen Yuan had noticed a hint of danger approaching. He had assumed it was the green flood dragon under Sunn Lanyu. However, after he lent the Darkness-Light Sword to Gong Buyu to kill the flood dragon, the dangerous aura hadn’t dissipated.
“There’s definitely a problem with this!”
As Shen Yuan prepared to stop Gong Buyu from accepting the challenge, Gong Buyu coldly said:
“If you have any other plans, just lay them out!”
Although Gong Buyu had little contact with the outside world, she wasn’t a fool. She could naturally see Sunn Lanyu’s inflaming words.
However, this was the first task her master had given her at this Taoist Conference – to take the crown. She had to do everything possible to achieve it, even if Sunn Lanyu had other plans, she couldn’t back down.
“Good!”
Sunn Lanyu’s face showed a look of ecstasy. He clapped his hands and said loudly:
“In that case, I would like to invite our Elder of River Ji Sect to appear.”
As his words fell, a black mountain slowly rose from the waters where the Aquatic Tribe was gathered, causing a sudden surge of waves.
As the massive waves subsided, everyone was shocked to find that what had risen was not a mountain, but the shell of a massive alligator snapping turtle.
Just at a glance, this snapping turtle was several times bigger than the Evil Yue Water God they’d seen before. The massive pressure it exerted in the middle of the river was far more than any ship could bear.
The hideous head covered in scales emerged from the water, its powerful aura spreading in all directions without reservation.
The tremendous pressure emanating from Mingquan Turtle Minister affected not only their bodies but their spirit souls as well. Someone on the Primal Chaos Tower finally couldn’t help but exclaim.
“A Transmutation Stage Great Demon!”
“The Spirit Energy Tidal Surge hasn’t fully returned yet, dare a Transmutation Stage Great Demon reveal himself at this time?”
“Certainly not a Great Demon who ascended after the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge, it must belong to one from the grotto heavens sacred ground!”
“River Ji Dragon Palace! It must be the River Ji Dragon Palace that has paid some price to suppress the backlash temporarily.”
“But the temporary suppression is already the limit. A Transmutation Stage Great Demon has surpassed the worldly rules; it can’t appear in this world. Once it makes a move, it will certainly pay a heavy price.”
Hundreds of water tribes immediately kneeled on the water’s surface, bowing to the giant snapping turtle. Even the arrogant Sunn Lanyu bent over and paid his respects:
“Greetings to Mingquan Turtle Minister!”
Mingquan Lake is one of the top-ranking tributary water systems of the River Ji region. In every generation, the position of Dragon Sovereign has been held by the direct line of River Ji Dragon Palace. During the period of Spirit Energy depletion, there were a few places to enter the River Ji Dragon Palace’s grotto heavens.
During the last Spirit Energy Tidal Surge era, the contemporary Mingquan Dragon Monarch was the direct child of the First Prince of River Ji Dragon Palace.
On the previous River Ji Dragon Sovereign’s nearing end of lifespan, the First Prince of River Ji Dragon Palace who was about to take over leaked the news about the loss of River Ji Dragon Seal and was eventually overthrown by the Third Prince in conjunction with the other deities of the Dragon Palace.
Prince Ji Du was expelled from the River Ji Dragon Palace, unable to enter the grotto heavens anymore. Fearful of the retaliation from Prince Ji Du’s followers, the Third Prince stripped several of Prince Ji Du’s progenies including Mingquan Dragon Monarch of their positions, preventing them from entering the River Ji Dragon Palace’s grotto heavens.
To appease the Aquatic Tribe, the Third Prince gave the places in the River Ji Dragon Palace’s grotto heavens that should have belonged to Prince Ji Du and his progenies to the large water systems.
Mingquan Turtle Minister, as the second important figure in the Mingquan Lake water system, pledged allegiance to the Third Prince in time and was granted the eligibility to enter the River Ji Dragon Palace.
Normally, even if a cultivator who has reached the Divinity Transformation Realm entered the grotto heavens sacred ground, they would still be unable to use the methods of a True Being or True Monarch to make it through the long Spirit Energy depletion period of three thousand years.
This is why there is rarely a cultivator at the Divinity Transformation Realm seen in the grotto heavens sacred ground of the Human Clan.
However, Mingquan Turtle Minister is different. As a member of the long-lived turtle clan, he didn’t have to resort to self-sealing mystic arts. Relying solely on his innate bloodline, he managed to endure through the Spirit Energy depletion period of three thousand years.
This is quite unusual even within the entire River Ji Dragon Palace.
Using the information obtained from Bai Zhao, Sunn Lanyu claims that Falling Clouds is within the Primal Chaos Tower. He insisted that a Great Demon from the River Ji Dragon Palace must be dispatched to deter the Human Clan so they could further investigate the clue.
None of the existing powerhouses in the River Ji Dragon Palace can act, and thus, the one who was chosen was Mingquan Turtle Minister, who not only held the lowest position but also would suffer the least backlash from nature when he made his strike.
Mingquan Turtle Minister was reluctant to go on this trip. To suffer the backlash from the rules of nature and reality by forcibly making a move in the world almost meant a permanent end to his path to advancement. This could possibly ruin all the three thousand years of hardship he had painstakingly endured.
However, when an order came from the River Ji Dragon Sovereign, he, a mere traitorous minister of the turtle clan, had absolutely no room to refuse.
Mingquan Turtle Minister scanned the Gong Buyu on the iceberg with his turbid eyes. Suddenly, he felt a familiar aura emanating from the iceberg below.
With his eyes wide open, Mingquan Turtle Minister roared angrily:
“Did you kill my descendant?”
The sound of the roar shook the rivers, causing waves to rise and crash against the unmelting ancient iceberg.
After leaving the grotto heavens of the River Ji Dragon Palace, to Mingquan Turtle Minister’s surprise, he learned from Sunn Lanyu that he had an outstanding descendant who had advanced to the Qi Training Stage in the early period of Spirit Energy tidal surge. Provided there were no accidents, the descendant was destined to become a Demon King.
The news brought great delight to Mingquan Turtle Minister. The fact that his descendants could have such a prodigy meant that he could leave a good impression on the River Ji Dragon Sovereign with this public appearance, and gain some benefits for his talented descendant.
Although he had reached the end of his advancement path, placing his hopes on the younger generation was still a viable strategy.
However, just a moment later, Sunn Lanyu informed Mingquan Turtle Minister that his talented descendant had fallen, and there was a high chance that it had something to do with the target of this trip.
Mingquan Turtle Minister initially thought this was Sunn Lanyu attempting to make him put forth his best effort. Yet, upon witnessing the frozen body of the Evil Yue Water God and the iceberg suppressed by Gong Buyu, Mingquan Turtle Minister completely believed Sunn Lanyu’s words.
“Die!”
The colossal body of Mingquan Turtle Minister carried the momentum of rivers. As a Great Demon who had accumulated strength for three thousand years, his water-controlling spell had already reached a level of perfection.
A gigantic wave rose to the sky, turning into a curtain of turquoise water that crashed down upon an area within several miles.
The vast amount of river water, under the influence of gravity, could annihilate everything, making Gong Buyu appear like an insignificant ant under the power of this Great Demon.
Actually, the outcome was already decided from the moment Mingquan Turtle Minister appeared.
The powerful Divinity Transformation being, once they accomplished the Yin God stage, had completely broken through the constraints of the ordinary world. Their control over Elemental Qi and the power of Yin God enabled them to promote their spell to an unachievably high realm for the ordinary beings.
This was a height that was impossible for ordinary beings to reach.
If Gong Buyu at her peak encountered a cultivator who had just entered the Divinity Transformation Realm, she might have been able to struggle and run for her life.
But, in her present state, with her energy depleted and facing a three thousand year old Great Demon, Gong Buyu had absolutely no chance of winning.
“In the end, has it come to this?”
Confronted with the imposing force of the Great Demon, even the stubborn Gong Buyu had to admit, this was an existence she simply could not contend with in her current conditions.
She loosened her grip on the Darkness-Light Sword she held tight in her right hand and chose to entrust her safety to her master.
The turquoise water curtain crashed down. But just before it could touch Gong Buyu, an invisible sword slashed it apart. Sword Qi cut through the sky and dove straight into the high heavens. The surging river water diverged and flowed away.
Then, an indifferent voice slowly arose.
“You wish to bully my disciple?”
