My Optimized Immortal Life
Chapter 373: The Old Turtle's Fortune
Before coming, Chen Qing thought that the old turtle was forcibly taken away by the mountain-carrying turtle and taken in as a subordinate, or that the latter had refined his flesh and blood and extracted his essence and blood to become the mountain-carrying turtle's cultivation nourishment. However, he never expected that the old turtle would become the host.
The island in the center is extremely wide, with lush and verdant forests growing from the edge of the island. When it extends to the center of the island, it suddenly stops, revealing a large open space.
And in this large open space, there were only two turtle monsters lying there.
One of them had two horns on its head, its limbs and neck were covered with white scales, and mysterious patterns appeared on its back. An aura that was extremely familiar to the two people and the monster emanated from it. It was the old turtle.
However, the old turtle is now much larger than before, its aura is stronger, and its cultivation has made great progress. It has become a great demon at the late third stage.
Next to it, there is a mountain turtle that is about twice the size of the old turtle.
This turtle has extremely thick limbs and a relatively flat back. On top of it stands a small earthen hill of several dozen meters, with some trees growing on it. The aura of a fourth-level demon king emanates from its body.
The mountain turtle sensed the breath of Xiao Hei and Xu Lingxin, and immediately raised its head, only to see that Xiao Hei had come to the top of its head and was looking down at them.
Seeing this, the mountain-carrying turtle roared angrily, then mobilized its demonic power, soared into the air, and confronted Chen Qing and the others.
Then the mountain-carrying turtle spoke.
"Human monks? You two have trespassed into my territory. What are you trying to do?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qing and Xu Lingxin exchanged a look. Then, Chen Qing stepped forward, and the magical aura of the middle Nascent Soul stage came overwhelmingly, making the mountain-carrying turtle feel that Chen Qing's magical power was extremely profound, far surpassing his own.
But if that's all, it's not enough, at least it can't threaten monsters of the mountain-carrying turtle's level.
Then, a mysterious aura emanated from the magical energy, and the aura of yin and yang rotation slowly emerged, which directly stunned the mountain-carrying turtle opposite and made it give up struggling.
It may not be able to recognize that what Chen Qing displayed was the Yin-Yang Qi, but as a fourth-level demon king, it could see at a glance that the Dao pattern Qi that Chen Qing used was much higher in level than its bloodline magic. This meant that with Chen Qing's strength, killing it would be easy.
Seeing the mountain turtle give up struggling and slowly fall down, the old turtle still lying on the ground finally reacted. It looked around and found that there was nowhere to run. It couldn't help sighing. Then, it heard a very familiar voice coming from the sky.
"Old Turtle, I didn't expect that you are living such a good life now."
"My lord!"
The old turtle was stunned at first, then an ugly smile immediately appeared on its face. It raised its head and saw that the huge monster in the gray fog was actually Xiao Hei. After it was taken away by the mountain-carrying turtle, the latter underwent a metamorphosis and successfully turned into a dragon. The aura was very different from before, and it did not recognize it at first.
The mountain turtle that had landed beside the old turtle was surprised to see that the old turtle actually called Chen Qing "master".
"Bai Jiao, your master is actually a True Lord in the Nascent Soul stage?!"
There was a look of shock in the words of the mountain-carrying turtle, and it was obvious that he couldn't believe it for a moment.
Upon hearing this, the old turtle showed helplessness on his face.
"When you forcibly took me away, I told you that my master is a true lord. If he finds you, you will definitely be in big trouble. Now you are fine, right?"
The mountain turtle was also speechless.
When it first encountered the old turtle, the latter was only at the middle stage of the third level, with weak demonic power and a very shallow foundation. It was not at all like a True Lord's mount. Who would have thought that there would actually be a True Lord who would want a demonic beast like it as a mount? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
Chen Qing and Xu Lingxin stood on Xiao Hei's head. The latter had already descended from the gray fog in the sky. Half of its body was pressed on the open ground, with its dragon head erect, looking at the old turtle at this time. At the same time, the rest of its eyes glanced at the mountain-carrying turtle. It was also a monster and had been with the old turtle for hundreds of years. It was very familiar with the latter's breath. Now that the mountain-carrying turtle no longer used its magic power, it immediately sensed that the latter actually had some of the old turtle's breath on it, and this breath was extremely strong.
After a moment's thought, it realized something, and a hint of regret appeared in its huge vertical pupils.
Okay, this time there is no need to ask the old turtle, it knows that this mountain turtle will definitely not be able to finish it all by itself.
It’s a fourth-level monster. If I could eat it, I wonder how it would compare to the half paw of the bear monster?
Thinking of this, some saliva dripped from the corner of Xiao Hei's mouth.
Chen Qing didn't pay attention to Xiao Hei, but he also noticed the latter's abnormality. However, he didn't care, but looked at the old turtle, his eyes moving between it and the mountain-carrying turtle. Xu Lingxin did the same, and the looks in the eyes of both of them were a little subtle.
Obviously, what Xiao Hei can see, the other two can see as well.
"Old turtle, tell me, what happened after you were taken away by the mountain-carrying turtle?"
Upon hearing this, the old turtle's face with some white scales actually turned red with shame. It coughed a few times before slowly telling the story of how it fell in love with the mountain-carrying turtle at first sight, and then was brought to the island by the mountain-carrying turtle and lived with it forever.
After hearing this, even Xiao Hei felt extremely speechless. Chen Qing just shook his head and sighed that the world is full of wonders.
Now that the misunderstanding was resolved and the Mountain Turtle Demon King had become one of his own, Chen Qing didn't know what to do. He looked at Xu Lingxin, wanting to ask for the latter's opinion.
Seeing this, Xu Lingxin looked at the old turtle and asked.
"Old Turtle, do you want to go into the Central Region with Xiao Hei and us, or stay in the Great Wasteland?"
Hearing this, the old turtle was a little at a loss. It looked at the mountain-carrying turtle, then at Chen Qing and Xu Lingxin, with a conflicted look on its face.
Seeing this, Chen Qing couldn't help but sigh.
"In that case, you can stay here."
After saying this, Chen Qing waved his hand and took out several jade bottles, handed them to the old turtle, and asked him to put them away.
"This is the Xuanyuan Pill. It can improve your cultivation and help you break through to the fourth level. Since you want to stay in the Great Wilderness Marsh, you must practice diligently and achieve the fourth level as soon as possible."
Hearing this, even though the old turtle had lived for thousands of years, he couldn't help but feel extremely grateful in his heart, and two lines of tears slowly flowed from his eyes.
"My Lord's kindness is beyond my commiseration. No matter what my Lord asks of me in the future, I will gladly go through fire and water for him."
Seeing the old turtle crying, Chen Qing did not feel moved, but just felt a little sorry. He did not say much, and after letting Xu Lingxin say goodbye to Xiao Hei and the old turtle, he left.
Actually, this is a good thing. After all, the old turtle's bloodline is not at a high level, and it has not undergone bloodline transformation like Xiao Hei. It will definitely not be able to keep up with his pace in the future, so letting it leave now is not a bad idea.
Chen Qing is already hundreds of years old after practicing cultivation. Although he has been practicing hard most of the time, he still feels that time has passed.
Many things are irreversible, so Chen Qing will only make sure that he has no regrets, this is his true intention.
