Chapter 993: Lazy Old Turtle

Inside the Long Feather Band, a massive old turtle was hiding its long neck inside the turtle shell and sleeping leisurely.

Inside this space, there was an unimaginable and huge amount of spiritual power. This level of spiritual power was rare even in the Spiritual Realm.

When Ou Yangming’s mental conception entered, not only did he feel this shocking change, but he also saw a scene that left him dumbfounded.

On the thick and heavy back of the old black turtle, there were all kinds of spiritual herbs and trees. These spiritual items were growing healthily and were full of vitality.

Ou Yangming could barely be considered an alchemist as he only knew little about the art of planting. Nonetheless, even this little bit of knowledge was enough for him to understand some of the taboos of planting. That was that within a certain area, there was a limit to the number of living beings that could exist.

Whether it was animals or plants, they could not escape this rule.

The more powerful the living being, the larger the space it occupied. This was because one needed more nutrients to grow, so one had to expand the range of one’s growth to achieve the goal of absorbing more nutrients.

At this moment, none of the spiritual items that were full of vitality on the old black turtle were simple.

If any of these items were placed in the lower realm, it would cause all the powerhouses to fight over them. Even if they were placed in the Spiritual Realm, many of them were also precious items. After all, many of the spiritual items here were produced from the specialties in the Wutong Tree’s world. They could be considered the top existences in the Spiritual Realm.

Logically speaking, such precious spiritual items needed a harsh environment to grow.

In an ordinary place, even a spiritual herb would need a garden to supply nutrients to it. At this moment, the number of spiritual items on the old black turtle’s back had reached an astonishing level.

With such a density, anyone with a little common sense would be able to tell that something was wrong.

Nevertheless, when Ou Yangming sensed the aura on the old black turtle’s body, he could not help but click his tongue in wonder.

It had been a long time since he had paid attention to the old black turtle. After all, after entering the Spiritual Realm, there were too many things that happened too quickly. When the turtle was in the lower realm, though it was enough to dominate a region, in the Spiritual Realm, it was nothing worth mentioning. It was far less important than the goshawk and Multi-armed King Kong. Thus, it was natural for him to ignore it.

Despite that, under such circumstances, the old black turtle’s cultivation actually advanced.

It was originally a high-rank spirit beast, but the aura on its body now seemed to be at its peak no matter how one looked at it. Moreover, its body was filled with a rich fragrance that made people want to pounce on it and take a bite after smelling it.

At this moment, Ou Yangming even suspected if the old black turtle in the Long Feather Band space was the same as the one that he had brought up from the lower realm or not.

After hesitating for a while, Ou Yangming completely released his mental conception.

Inside this space, there was the imprint that Lil’ Red had given him, where he was the master of this space. Even if someone’s cultivation was stronger than his, as long as the difference was not too outrageous, he had the confidence to suppress the other party here.

Slowly, the old black turtle’s thunderous snoring lowered, and its head began to squirm.

After sensing Ou Yangming’s mental power, it unwillingly woke up.

Ou Yangming kept quiet for some time, but he still could not help but ask, “Old turtle, when... Did you advance?”

Advancing from a high-rank spirit beast into a top-grade spirit beast would not have the grand phenomenon of advancing into Venerable One, but it was still not a small matter. No matter how much Ou Yangming did not pay attention to it, he should not be completely ignorant.

Despite that, he was totally unaware of it though the Long Feather Band had never left his side.

The old black turtle proudly shook its huge head and answered, “I planted all the spiritual items I collected on my body and used their powers, so I advanced.”

Ou Yangming was struck dumb, and he thought to himself, ‘What kind of answer is this?’

The powers of the spiritual items were indeed powerful but... Looking at the strange scene on the turtle’s back, Ou Yangming really could not understand how it used them.

As if the turtle could see Ou Yangming’s doubt, it laughed loudly and explained, “The Turtles are a long-lived race, and we have the special talent to communicate with all spirits. Hehe, once these spiritual items fall on my body, they’ll grow strong and gradually connect with my bloodline to become one with it.”

“Become one?” A terrifying thought flashed in Ou Yangming’s mind. He asked, “These spiritual items have become one with you?”

“That’s right.” The old turtle was proud. “If not for that, how could I have planted all of them and also raised my cultivation base at the same time? Hehe...” It blinked its huge eyes, “Why did you wake me up? Is there a better spiritual item? Don’t worry, give it to me. I promise to give you enough spiritual liquid.”

Outside the space, Ou Yangming’s mouth twitched slightly. He finally understood how the old black turtle did all these seemingly impossible things.

It actually used his innate ability to fuse the spiritual items with its bloodline.

When normal living beings used these spiritual items, they would use every possible method to extract their value then absorb them to increase their own strength.

However, the Turtles were special. They didn’t use this method to kill the chicken to get its egg. Instead, they used a magical Bloodline Power to fuse the spiritual items with their bodies. From then on, while the spiritual items were still spiritual items, they also had another identity, which was the continuation of the old black turtle’s bloodline.

The spiritual items and the turtle reached a strange coexistence relationship.

Ou Yangming had never seen or even heard of this relationship before, so it was hard for him to understand.

Looking at the densely planted spiritual items, Ou Yangming could not help but smile bitterly.

From a certain point of view, these spiritual items were a whole. They were all things that grew out of the old black turtle’s body by using it as their main trunk. Since they were a living unit together, even if the resources that were allocated to them were different, it would not be to the extent that either side would lack nutrition and die.

Just like the human body, the head and internal organs were indeed more important than the limbs. Having said that, no one had ever heard of a person deliberately causing the limbs to be stunted in order to maintain the strength of the head and internal organs during development.

Unless there was a disease, it would never be like this.

Looking at the old black turtle’s appearance at the moment, as well as the unbelievable vitality around it, anyone could tell that it was in great condition at the moment. There was not even the slightest bit of disease lingering around it.

Ou Yangming let out a long sigh and said, “You can advance your cultivation base just by sleeping here. It’s really, really...” At this point, even he was lost for words.

He had also advanced into an Advanced Spiritualist, and even Multi-armed King Kong had overcome the Heavenly DIsaster and become a Venerable One.

That said, their advancements required them to go through countless dangers. If anything happened halfway, they would die. How could they compare to the old black turtle? By staying in the space of the Long Feather Band, planting flowers, and sleeping, it could advance without any risks.

If it was possible, most people would choose the latter without any hesitation.

The old black turtle opened his big mouth. “Hehe, this is the innate fate of the Black Turtles, but I really have to thank you. If I had no one, I could forget about... Hey, why are you an Advanced Spiritualist now?” The slow turtle finally noticed Ou Yangming’s cultivation base, and it could not help but feel shocked. “How long have I been asleep?”

“Not long,” Ou Yangming said unhappily, “My experiences are much richer than you think.” He no longer had to hide anything from the old black turtle.

He had joined the Beast King Sect, fought against the Insect, and the Phoenixes came. On top of that, he even left Danzhou and entered the Big Ruins.

The old black turtle listened with great interest. It looked at Ou Yangming in a different light than before.

It did not expect that Ou Yangming would encounter so many things while he was sleeping. The arrival of the phoenix powerhouse was a world-shaking event. It felt deeply regretful that it did not witness the event.

“So many interesting things have happened. Why didn’t you ask me to participate in them?” The old black turtle blinked its big eyes and asked in a slightly resentful tone.

Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. “Okay, I’ll let you out now but...” He glanced at the many spiritual items on the old black turtle’s back. With a hint of ridicule, he said, “This is the Big Ruins, which is a dilapidated place. It’s rare to see spiritual herbs and medicines here. Besides, there are 2 Venerable Ones here. Hehe, I wonder how they’ll react when they see you.”

The old black turtle’s face turned green in an instant.

Did it still need to think about what might happen? It would surely be torn into pieces and stewed into a soup to drink.

Shaking his tail, the old black turtle immediately responded without hesitation, “Aiyo, it’s so dangerous outside, so it’s better to stay here.” It shrunk his neck and said, “I’ve decided not to go out. You can go by yourself!”

Ou Yangming was amused and angry at the same time.

This old black turtle was so lazy, but it effortlessly cultivated itself into a high-rank spirit beast. If those cultivators who had been bitterly cultivating but were unable to advance knew about this, they would be so angry that they would not be able to rest in peace.

Ou Yangming cleared his throat and said, “The reason I’m meeting you this time is to ask you for a favor.”

The old black turtle’s eyes flickered craftily as it asked, “What favor? You’re also an Advanced Spiritualist, and you have King Kong’s help. If It’s a fight, I can’t help you.”

Ou Yangming chuckled as he thought, ‘I never expected you to be able to help me defend against a strong enemy.’.

He noted, “I have a friend who has been poisoned, so I need to refine a spiritual pill for him, but the Big Ruins is filled with barren mountains and unforgiving rivers. The poison is rampant, but spiritual herbs are scarce here.” He looked at the old black turtle’s back and smiled harmoniously. “So, I’d like to request a few spiritual herbs.”
