Chapter 417: The Origin of the Demon Turtle, Collecting Stones and Forming Formation
"It's strange that this old turtle is so cunning, because he has such a background..."
??Removing his palm from the huge tortoise head, Xie Duanyang used his consciousness to relieve his somewhat tired mind.
??Although this turtle spends most of its time lying on its spiritual veins, exhaling spiritual energy, and rarely moves around.
??But after all, after living for more than a thousand years, I am only a fraction of the other person, so my memory is still vast and huge.
??Rao Bian just flipped through the rough outline, and the burden was not small.
??However, now it has a basic understanding of the turtle’s life experience.
??Strictly speaking, this green-bearded turtle is not a wild monster, but a domestic Luocao, which had a previous owner.
??Although the turtle demon's spiritual intelligence had not yet fully developed at that time and its memory was vague, although its original owner had not yet reached the Nascent Soul, he was obviously not in the early stage of ordinary pill formation.
??There is a high probability that he will be a mid-term or even late-stage figure.
??But he was a figure from at least six or seven hundred years ago. Xie Duanyang has never heard of or seen the origin of his name.
??This person practices water movement techniques and has a deep understanding of water escape techniques. He often dives into the seabed to hunt monsters and beasts and search for medicinal herbs and minerals.
??This spiritual vein was occupied by the silver-toothed shark, and the original owner of the green-bearded turtle spent a lot of effort to kill it.
??Then I further discovered this spiritual eye thing.
??I don’t know what he was thinking at the time, but he didn’t cast a spell to take it away.
??On the contrary, because he was reluctant to part with this independent spiritual vein, he deliberately built a cave around the Spiritual Eye Stone as a secret residence for his family.
??It’s more secluded and quiet than having fun on an island.
??It just so happened that he had the formation equipment with him and set up a set of concealment restrictions on the spot.
??Then he hurriedly returned to his cave, preparing to bring the necessary things to "decorate" it.
??It was also bad luck. Because he was too happy and careless for a moment, he was marked by several sworn enemies, and when he approached this place, he was blocked in the sea.
??In a life-and-death fight, although he lost his life, the spiritual beasts with him were not spared either.
??This green-bearded turtle had great luck. Because his cultivation was still shallow at that time, he was not taken seriously by those people, and he escaped with his life by luck.
??He even regained his freedom because of his master's death.
??Later, it found its spiritual veins by relying on its vague induction and memory.
??The Hidden Restriction lacked someone to preside over it, and there were no spiritual stones to replenish it. It collapsed on its own within a few years, so it was able to take over smoothly.
??After that, there's not much special.
??With the help of the Spiritual Eye Stone, the turtle demon has successfully accumulated mana to this point, and even refined six Wutu Yuanzhu.
??Because it was previously the spiritual pet of a monk, this turtle developed its spiritual intelligence quite early, and its temperament is not as fierce as that of the wild turtle.
??I am not very determined to resist becoming a human spirit beast again, I would rather die than surrender.
??On the contrary, after witnessing the original owner being besieged and dying, and almost dying himself, seeing that the situation was not going well, it became almost instinctive to run away.
??Of course, there are only a few monsters that can threaten his life.
??It has been entrenched here for hundreds of years, and it has only been as difficult as it is today only three or two times.
??After knowing the origin of the turtle demon, Xie Duanyang couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
??After the death of the owner, there may not be one spiritual pet among thousands that is not implicated but becomes free.
??Now, if he had not met himself who was proficient in various secret arts, but had fallen into the hands of other monks, it would be difficult to save his life and the demon pill.
??On the contrary, although he is now adopted as a spiritual pet again, with his own guidance, he has great hope of breaking through the current bottleneck.
??After careful calculation, the gains outweigh the losses.
??From this point of view, this green-bearded turtle really does have some luck.
??Two quarters of an hour later, Xie Duanyang fully recovered. He stretched out his hand and pointed at his forehead, and once again passed on the previous technique.
??The "Housou Zhen Gang" he just typed is not false, and can be practiced from Qi training to the later stage of elixir formation.
??The "Thick Earth Armor Corpse Art" practiced by Armored Corpses is Xie Duanyang's blend of "Thick Earth True Gang", "Hundred Insects Spiritual Art", "Taiyin Form Refining Art", and "Wan Ling Zhen Jing"
It is derived from the method of refining and raising corpses.
??So he had already collected all the follow-up techniques of "Housou Zhen Gang" and mastered them completely.
??But that is designed for human meridians, acupoints and internal organs, and is not suitable for green bearded turtles.
??But when I just looked through the memory of the turtle demon, I had already figured out its body structure.
??Just now, with the help of the Taixu Mirror and his own knowledge, he modified the "Hou Tu Zhen Gang" according to the green bearded turtle's body to adapt to his body practice.
??Although it is impossible to be perfect in a hurry, and it is only before the foundation is built, it is enough to deal with this turtle for the time being.
??The physique of the green-bearded turtle has long been transformed by the spiritual eye stone, which is very consistent with the "Thick Earth True Gang".
??Its intelligence is not low either. Once it gets the secret, it will immediately sense it.
??On top of the tortoise shell, the earth-yellow brilliance gradually circulates, the light and shade are uncertain, and the breath is strong and weak. It is obvious that he has begun to practice and begins to transform his own magic power.
??Leaving it there to meditate, Xie Duanyang separated the waterway and came to the vicinity of the spiritual eye.
??Now, he has free time to look at the spiritual eye stone.
??The size is about a foot, the color is nothing special, common ocher yellow.
??The shape is not very regular either.
??After losing the cover of the green-bearded turtle, a strong spiritual aura quickly rose up around him, turning into mist, covering an area of about several miles in radius.
??If not for this, no one would have thought that it was a famous spiritual eye thing.
??Obviously, it is much stronger than the spiritual energy of Han Li's miniature spiritual eye spring, but it is far inferior to the orb in his hand.
??The rank and quality are almost the same, which is the most common spiritual eye thing in the world of cultivation.
??He had already taken the Spiritual Eye Bead before forming the elixir.
??The magic power is now many times stronger. Although the spiritual eye stone is firmly combined with the earth veins, it will not be difficult.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But with just a flick of the finger, in less than half a cup of tea, hundreds of invisible sword auras were fired and submerged into the seabed, connecting with each other.
??Cut off the invisible bonds between the spiritual eye stone and the earth veins one by one.
??"rise!"
??Xie Duanyang shouted in a low voice, spread his fingers apart, and grasped weakly.
??That side seemed to be standing still, but the spiritual eye stone buried deep in the spiritual veins came out of the soil inch by inch and fell into his palm.
??Weighing the weight, it is much heavier than the orb, weighing five to six hundred kilograms.
??Put it in the jade box, seal it with a spiritual talisman, and Xie Duanyang walks twice along the spiritual veins.
??Then he took out the set of formation flags from the storage bag and began to arrange and operate them.
??Although the previous owner of the Green Bearded Turtle was unlucky, his thoughts were not wrong.
??A separate mansion is arranged here. If something unexpected happens, there must be a place to retreat.
??Of course, the Spiritual Eye Stone will not be left behind.
??His attainments in the formation path are much better than that person's. The formations and formation flags are mostly arranged along the spiritual veins, and they can absorb and use their spiritual energy to continue running.
??Even if no additional spiritual stones are added within a few decades, it can still be maintained.
??When it is properly arranged, the green-bearded turtle will also complete the entry into "Thick Earth True Gang".
??In response to the instructions, he continued to perform earth-moving magic, turning mud into stone and fossils into mud.
??Xie Duanyang also took action on his own, using his iron-making hand to make corrections and improvements.
??Soon, a cave that was as small as a sparrow but had all the internal organs appeared within the formation restrictions.
??The structural shape is very different from ordinary monk caves, with few edges and corners and many arcs.
??After being smeared and covered with controlled sediment, it looks like just a few small hills, inconspicuous.
??After personally inspecting it, Xie Duanyang was satisfied and sat cross-legged on the turtle's back to direct it to leave.
??Although most earth spirit beasts are not known for their agility in flight, they can perform earth escape by stepping on the ground with their four feet.
??Often with one step, he appears ten feet away, much faster than he was at the bottom of the sea.
??In just two days, he appeared outside Dihuo Island.
?? Put the black water snake and the green-bearded turtle into the spirit beast bag, Xie Duanyang set up the fire cloud, and landed on the island openly.
??As usual, first summon the island stewards and others for questioning.
??Two level five monsters, but they also gathered hundreds of monster soldiers and wandered outside the Earth Fire Island to harass them.
??Calculating time and monster species, it should be the second wave of monsters that were killed and dispersed.
??It’s just that the island is covered by a large formation, and there is Cao Xuan, a peak Yunshui envoy in the mid-term, who is stationed there. Naturally, no accidents will happen. Instead, he easily harvested two level 5 demon pills.
??When mentioning this matter, Cao Xuan was also somewhat proud.
??Although compared to his previous gains in previous beast tides, it is not very rich.
??But it is extremely safe. You don’t have to go out to sea to face the beast tide, you just need to stay on the island and wait for it to come to your door. It is simply a free bargain.
??Of course, he knew it in his heart.
??The reason why it went so smoothly was because Ling Yutian and the four of them laid an ambush in advance and suffered heavy losses.
??Otherwise, seven or eight fifth- and sixth-level monsters would come over with thousands of low-level monsters.
??I can only stay on the island and defend my position, and I don’t dare to risk going out to pick up demon pills.
??So without waiting for Xie Duanyang to speak, he took the initiative to give the heart-taking bell the power of an ancient treasure.
??Xie Duanyang was not idle either. He first took out the inferior monster materials from the trophies and freed up several storage bags.
??Most of them were stored in the warehouse on the island, and a small amount were thrown to the few foundation-building weapon refiners and ordered to slowly refine them into magic weapons.
??It is said to be defective material, but the thing that can be killed by it is still a second- and third-level monster, and its quality is refined into a top-level magic weapon.
??On the contrary, those people’s skills are unconvincing.
??In order to avoid wastage, he also spent special time to inspect and point out those people's weapon refining skills.
??It is worth mentioning that Xu Yiran, the grandson of Xu Song who has the spiritual roots of gold and fire.
??In addition to practicing, he also began to try to follow the ten people and learn the basics of weapon refining.
??Obviously, their grandfather and grandson have made up their minds to become his disciples.
??It was quite busy again. When all the chores were done, another three days passed.
??Xie Duanyang sealed the door, escaped into the underground river cave, and released the green-bearded turtle.
??Feeling the spiritual energy in the cave that is richer and more pure than the Spiritual Eye Stone, the old turtle's eyes showed a humanized look of surprise and joy.
??As soon as his tail waggled, he wanted to run to the edge of the pool and lie down to continue his meditation, but he was told to stop.
??There are still things to do now, but I can’t tolerate it and immediately retreat to practice.
??Thinking in his mind, Xie Duanyang walked along the dark river to the mussel.
??This clam has lived for hundreds of thousands of years. It has stayed at the fourth level peak for a long time and has accumulated enough mana.
??It's just limited to one's own feet and has no blood inheritance, so it has been unable to break through.
??Following him for more than ten years, he was nourished by spiritual water every day, and obtained the sixth-level black turtle inner elixir to refine his pure evil spirit.
??After several years, the mana has been purified a lot, and we just have to take the last step.
??"You are also very lucky."
?? chuckled lightly, and Xie Duanyang communicated with him with his spiritual thoughts to open the clam shell.
??He wiped the storage bag with his right hand, picked up a chicken-sized demon pill with two fingers, and dropped it into the belly of the clam.
??In the wave of beasts that just ended, there happened to be a fifth-level clam spirit inside, and he was killed by it and took away the demon elixir.
??The demonic power of the mussel has long been refined and pure, and it is only a matter of time to refine this demonic elixir and advance to the fifth level.
??The black turtle inner elixir has been cultivated by it for several years, and its spirituality has not been damaged at all, but has become more abundant.
??As soon as the clam shell is opened, a trace of cold air escapes.
??Originally, the green-bearded turtle had calmed down, but when he felt the aura of the sixth-level inner elixir, he hurriedly expressed his desire to obtain it.
??Although we know that both of them belong to the turtle genus, if the green-bearded turtle swallows and refines this elixir, it will definitely be beneficial.
??Even breaking through the current bottleneck and breaking through level 6 may not be certain.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yes, although this green-bearded turtle's vitality, blood, and mana are powerful, it is not inferior to the sixth-level monster at all.
??Even some demon clans that are not known for their powerful magic power may not be able to match it.
??However, it still stays at the fifth level threshold. It is somewhat similar to the mussel, but the reasons are different.
??It was precisely because it couldn't break through for a long time that it turned to refining the Wutu essence refined by the throughput into Yuanzhu.
??However, Xie Duanyang did not agree, not only because he had promised to use the ice boat in Baishui Valley, but also because this turtle did not need to rely on this to break through the bottleneck.
??The green-bearded turtle has been unable to break through. To a certain extent, it is precisely because the essence of mana is too abundant, but the spiritual consciousness is relatively ordinary and is hindered by the physical body.
??But now I have to give my own guidance. It will take at most ten or twenty years to transform and refine all the demon power, and reach the sixth level in a matter of time.
??If it doesn't work, then use the Blood Spirit Technique to help refine the blood and make it light and condensed.
??There is no need to take the risk of swallowing the black turtle inner elixir, and forcefully break through with abundant demonic power.
??What's more, its physique has been transformed and mutated, from the original water attribute to the earth element. The water-ice attribute of the Black Turtle's inner elixir is quite conflicting with it, causing a lot of losses.
??Leaving the mussel there to refine the elixir power bit by bit, Xie Duanyang summoned the armored corpse that was originally practicing cross-legged practice, and started to dig holes with the help of it and the earth-walking talent of the green-bearded turtle.
??Green-whiskered turtles and black water snakes are not suitable to be displayed outside for people to see. They are most suitable to be kept in underground rivers.
??It’s just that this place is not very large. Originally, it was more than enough room for me to practice as a cave.
??But he placed so many spiritual beasts here, it was a little cramped.
??The Green Bearded Turtle and the Black Water Snake are each huge in size. If they really want to raise them, they will naturally need to be expanded.
??Moreover, I just took this opportunity to dispose of the spiritual eye stone along with it.
