Chapter 25 Golden Tortoiseshell
Chapter 25 Golden Tortoiseshell
Lan Xuanyu asked casually, "By the way, Senior Brother, didn't you meet anyone named Huo Yuhao along the way?"
He knew very well that the Shrek Seven Devils, including Bei Bei and Tang Ya, were just an add-on to the revival of the Tang Sect. The one who would restore the Tang Sect was Huo Yuhao, and it was also his grandfather who personally acknowledged that Huo Yuhao had made the greatest contribution to the Douluo Continent.
Bei Bei shook her head in confusion. "Huo Yuhao? I've never seen him before..."
"Never seen him before?" Lan Xuanyu was immediately confused. The task of reviving the Tang Sect was supposed to be his! Where did he go?
A chill ran uncontrollably through my body, and a thought surged wildly into my mind.
Could it be that Huo Yuhao is still alive and deliberately avoiding the Tang Sect in this era...?
Cold sweat instantly soaked his back. If something went wrong with Huo Yuhao, Lan Xuanyu dared not even imagine what would happen to his father Tang Wulin and his own era.
No, no! That would throw the entire history of Douluo Continent into chaos!
Although Lan Xuanyu was terrified, he was still a powerful god-king, so he had a strong mentality and quickly figured out what he should do.
He has to get everything back on track!
But now he must continue to fulfill his duties as a Tang Sect disciple and help Tang Ya complete her third soul ring.
As expected, Tang Ya's choice of a soul beast is still to emulate a certain god-king.
The Mandragora Snake, the Ghost Vine, and even the Human-Faced Demon Spider and the Cave Demon Spider were all the best choices in Tang Ya's opinion.
Lan Xuanyu found this laughable. There was only one Tang San in the entire Douluo Continent, and these descendants who wanted to replicate their grandfather's glorious achievements were simply not qualified.
These idiots, don't they know that the only lineage in their Tang family is Blue Silver Emperor, not Blue Silver Grass?
Of course, Lan Xuanyu had no obligation to tell Tang Ya.
On the way, Lan Xuanyu and Bei Bei discussed the secrets of operating the Xuan Tian Gong, completely ignoring Tang Ya who was standing to the side.
What puzzled Lan Xuanyu was that the Xuan Tian Gong passed down in this era was different from the version he was familiar with, which was personally taught by Tang San in the God Realm.
The Xuan Tian Gong that Tang Ya and Bei Bei mastered was far less complete than the one they were familiar with. The most crucial mental techniques were hidden, the eight extraordinary meridians that were most important for developing their potential were also cut off, and many other parts were also missing. This resulted in the fact that, even though it was the same Xuan Tian Gong, the results achieved by these Tang Clan disciples were far inferior to those of the Tang Clan members.
It seems that Grandpa Tang San was holding back in some aspects. We should trust the wisdom of the Sea God!
They hadn't gone far into the Star Dou Great Forest when they unexpectedly encountered a human-faced demon spider with a cultivation level of five thousand years...
If this were Lan Xuanyu's previous life, once his Dragon God bloodline aura was released, no matter how high the cultivation level of a soul beast was, it would have to obediently kneel on the ground and lick his shoes.
but now……
"Run!!!"
Beibei roared, showing no desire to fight, and frantically stomped on the Ghost Shadow Clues with Tang Ya, wishing her parents had given her two more legs.
That's a five-thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider! To put it bluntly, it could even fight a Soul King. These little Soul Venerables are no different from being sent to eat in front of it.
Lan Xuanyu gritted his teeth in resentment. Although he felt aggrieved, his body betrayed him, and for a moment he even ran faster than Bei Bei and the others.
He didn't forget to throw out balls of light made of water, fire, and earth elements from time to time to stop the human-faced spider from advancing, but unfortunately, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. In the end, Tang Ya and Bei Bei were tripped by the spider silk spit out by the human-faced spider, and Lan Xuanyu was also unable to dodge the spider web binding.
In the blink of an eye, the human-faced spider was right in front of them, its sharp spider legs piercing through Bei Bei's arm and Lan Xuanyu's thigh, who were protecting Tang Ya.
Just an inch away from the little chick...
Fortunately, Bei Bei has connections. Seeing that the situation was not good, the teacher who escorted him to the Soul Hunting event appeared, repelled the Human-Faced Demon Spider, and took Bei Bei and Lan Xuanyu back to Shrek Academy for treatment.
The day after Lan Xuanyu and the others left the Star Dou Great Forest, the exhausted Huo Yuhao finally woke up after sleeping for a whole day.
Baili Du had previously told him that he must first join Shrek Academy, use his own eyes and heart to see what this so-called holy land of soul masters was really like, and then make his own judgment before deciding whether to stay or leave.
Although he didn't understand why he had to go to Shrek Academy, Huo Yuhao still trusted Baili Du's words completely.
However, before that, he needs to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain his third soul ring.
It's still the same place where fate has ordained, but the person has changed.
Sitting by a stream, Huo Yuhao skillfully lit a fire to grill fish. In no time, the unique aroma of Huo-style grilled fish filled the surroundings. Even the mini version of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm perched on Huo Yuhao's shoulder couldn't help but sniff.
"Yuhao, I want to eat too."
Huo Yuhao smiled helplessly. Just as he handed the grilled fish to his shoulder, ripples appeared on the river in the distance.
"Who's there!?"
His right hand instantly transformed into a deep blue dragon claw, with dark purple lightning snakes surging across it, looking at the stream with extreme vigilance.
Tianmeng didn't even bother with the grilled fish anymore. With a nimble twist of her plump body, she shielded Huo Yuhao in front of her.
At this moment, a dark golden, triangular head emerged from the bottom of the water, its small, same-colored eyes staring intently at the grilled fish in Huo Yuhao's hand.
"You actually managed to find me, human brat? You're quite something..."
Then its body surfaced, and it turned out to be a large turtle!
It was over two meters in diameter, and its golden tortoise shell was extremely uniform and deep, with even the color of each tortoise shell pattern being a dark gold, without any flaws. However, its aura was somewhat weak, and its vitality was extremely feeble, giving people the feeling that it was about to die.
Although the voice was muffled, the fact that this tortoise could speak human language meant that…
"A...a hundred thousand-year-old soul beast?"
Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao grabbed the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and tried to turn around and run away.
But a gentle force enveloped Huo Yuhao, preventing him from escaping.
"Hey... don't run away, don't run away, human boy, I mean no harm, don't worry."
"Ahem, let me introduce myself. I am a mythical beast among turtles, a super strong being with 100,000 years of cultivation, the Golden Tortoise."
Huo Yuhao and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm exchanged a glance. Tianmeng gave him a wink and then quietly disappeared.
"...So, Golden Tortoiseshell Senior, what brings you here?"
The golden tortoiseshell nodded calmly, its small eyes fixed on the grilled fish in Huo Yuhao's hand: "Hmm, of course. But let me taste what your grilled fish tastes like before I tell you."
What's the connection between these two things? I feel like you just want to eat... Although he really wanted to complain, Huo Yuhao still tentatively reached out and handed the grilled fish in his hand to the golden tortoiseshell's mouth.
Without any hesitation, the golden hawksbill turtle devoured the grilled fish in one bite. Its small eyes suddenly widened several times over, and its previously listless demeanor suddenly became much more imposing.
It almost burst into tears. Humans really know how to live! What kind of life did it live before... just eating raw fish.
