Chapter 147 The Tortoise Supporting the Sky!
Besides that, what also shocked Niu Ben was...
After arriving at Penglai Immortal Island, he used his divine sense to investigate and found that there were no powerful beings on the island.
But the sudden voices caught Niu Ben off guard.
It should be noted that after consuming the Hunyuan Golden Pill, his cultivation had reached the level of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, equivalent to the Quasi-Saint level.
However, they were completely unaware of this beforehand.
"Damn it!"
"This damn system, wasn't it supposed to reward you with a mysterious dojo?"
"It didn't say that such a powerful being existed on this Penglai Immortal Island!"
Niu Ben cursed inwardly, immediately becoming alert.
After all, he dared not be careless in the slightest when facing such a mysterious and powerful figure.
After a slight pause, Niu Ben began:
"I am Niu Ben, the eldest disciple of the Supreme Sage, one of the Three Pure Ones."
"I came here unaware that this place already has an owner. I hope you will show yourself."
Niu Ben revealed his identity.
In his view, with a living signboard like the Supreme Sage, who in the primordial world would dare not give him face?
With a powerful backer, even if a hidden strongman wanted to harm him, he would have to think twice about the consequences of angering a saint.
The moment Niu Ben uttered those words, the mysterious expert in the shadows was shocked.
"Oh?"
"So he's a disciple of a sage?"
"I never imagined this calf had such a background!"
After a moment's thought, a violent tremor suddenly arose in the void.
"Boom!"
Immediately afterwards, a powerful aura erupted.
Upon seeing this, Niu Ben quickly looked up.
Upon closer inspection, a giant tortoise appeared in the void.
This tortoise is enormous; its mere appearance blots out the sky.
On its tortoise body, innate Dao patterns rippled, emanating a chaotic aura.
Its head resembles an ancient mountain, its eyes are like the sun and moon, its four legs are like pillars of heaven, and its claws are entwined with earth, wind, water, and fire.
"this?"
"Wow...what a huge turtle!"
Niu Ben was taken aback when he saw this.
Who would have thought that the mysterious powerhouse hidden in the shadows was actually a giant tortoise!
After appearing, the giant tortoise's eyes narrowed, and it stared straight at Niu Ben.
With just one glance, his eyes revealed a profound sense of timelessness that transcends eternity.
"Huff huff..."
Seeing this, Niu Ben took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart, and asked:
"You...who are you?"
"snort!"
Upon hearing Niu Ben's question, the giant tortoise gave a cold snort and said:
"Young man!"
"I am the Ancestor Xuan Turtle!"
Upon hearing the giant tortoise's reply, Niu Ben was greatly shocked.
"What?"
"The Ancestor of the Black Tortoise?"
"Could it be the Black Tortoise of the North Sea?"
He was secretly surprised and suspicious.
Niu Ben is no stranger to the North Sea Black Tortoise.
I know this tortoise is the one that supports the sky!
After the Lich War began, the pillars of heaven on Mount Buzhou were broken, and the sage Nuwa had to refine five-colored stones to mend the sky.
Finally, the four legs of the North Sea Black Tortoise were used as new pillars supporting the sky.
It possesses the strength to support the heavens, its four legs can hold up the sky and earth, and it can carry the blue sky on its back without falling!
In addition, the origin of this North Sea Black Tortoise is also extraordinary. It was transformed from the remains of the Chaos Demon God, and therefore inherited the Great Dao of the Chaos Demon God's power.
Within its body lies the primordial energy of creation, the very essence of heaven and earth.
They are immortal and indestructible unless a great calamity arrives.
"I never imagined that this mysterious, powerful figure lurking in the shadows would be this tortoise!"
After thinking for a moment, Niu Ben was secretly amazed.
Just as Niu Ben was lost in thought, the North Sea Black Tortoise's gaze darkened, and it spoke in a cold voice:
"You little rascal, you've got some skills, managing to break through the formation and get inside!"
"It was somewhat rude."
"But since you are a disciple of a sage, the patriarch will not hold it against you this time."
"Leave now!"
After Niu Ben descended upon Penglai Immortal Island, the Black Tortoise of the North Sea kept a close watch on him.
It is evident that he plundered a large number of rare and precious materials on the first island, and then obtained the twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus on the second island.
The North Sea Black Tortoise didn't pay much attention to this.
However, Niu Ben then arrived at the third main island, where he still wanted to retrieve the precious treasure, the Primordial Measuring Ruler.
This made the North Sea Black Tortoise restless, and it finally spoke up to offer a reminder.
If Niu Ben is ignorant of manners, he would not mind letting him know how powerful he is.
Who would have thought that Niu Ben was actually a disciple of the Supreme Sage?
This made the Black Tortoise of the North Sea wary.
After all, in this primordial world, a sage is the supreme being.
If he were to kill Niu Ben here, and the Supreme Sage came knocking on his door, he would likely face certain death!
"Um?"
Niu Ben frowned slightly after hearing what the North Sea Black Tortoise said.
"They're actually trying to kick me out?"
"This place is the dojo that the system rewarded me with!"
Niu Ban muttered to himself, naturally unwilling to leave.
When he first saw this Penglai Immortal Island, he was thinking about whether he should have the Three Pure Ones open a new temple here in the future.
"We need to figure out a way to keep this turtle calm first."
"Luckily, I revealed my identity and background first."
"This tortoise is clearly wary of our master!"
After thinking for a moment, Niu Ben looked up at the North Sea Black Tortoise and asked:
"Senior Xuan Turtle."
"With your strength, why don't you transform into human form?"
Upon hearing Niu Ben's question, the North Sea Black Tortoise's eyes turned cold.
He had already asked Niu Ben to leave, but Niu Ben remained unmoved and instead started asking all sorts of questions.
"Could it be that this ox is also coveting the Primordial Measuring Ruler?"
The white sea turtle pondered silently.
If it were anyone else, he certainly wouldn't give them a kind look and would simply suppress them forcefully.
But Niu Ben was different; he was a disciple of a sage.
Unless absolutely necessary.
The Black Tortoise of the North Sea also did not want to make an enemy of the Sage.
After a slight pause, he then said:
"Don't you think I want to take human form, ancestor?"
"But there is a mysterious force that keeps blocking us."
"This prevents me from taking human form, so for countless years I have only been able to show myself in my true form."
At this point, the North Sea Black Tortoise sighed helplessly.
Logically speaking, with his strength, he should have been able to transform into human form long ago.
But strangely, an invisible force was binding him!
With a sigh, the Black Tortoise of the North Sea added:
"Junior."
"Although I cannot take human form, my true body is still incredibly powerful."
"Even a saint cannot extinguish it!"
As it spoke, the North Sea Black Tortoise confidently raised its head.
After hearing what the North Sea Black Tortoise said, Niu Ben naturally understood its implied meaning.
This is a warning to him not to go too far.
Even with the support of the Supreme Saint behind him, if he angered him, the Supreme Saint would still dare to suppress him.
"Can't it transform into human form?"
Niu Ben hesitated inwardly.
After a moment's thought, he immediately understood and muttered to himself:
"Could the mysterious force binding this North Sea Black Tortoise be the power of the Heavenly Dao?"
"After all, this tortoise will have a great karmic consequence in the future."
At the same time, Niu Ben told the North Sea Black Tortoise that his true form was incredibly powerful, without any objection.
After all, the Xuan Turtle will have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of supporting the sky in the future. If its physical body is not strong, how can it do it?
