Chapter 1535: Chapter 86 Mystic Tortoise Obsession_2

The lotus petals were translucent, akin to jade and pearls.

Yet now they have withered piece by piece, and in the blink of an eye, only the lotus seat remained.

However, this was not decay, but a renewal of life.

In the next moment, around the lotus seat, six lotus petals sprouted anew.

Soon, these six lotus petals withered again in the blink of an eye.

And then, nine lotus petals sprouted once more.

Thus it happened thrice.

Finally, the nine petals of the Ice Spirit Wonderful Lotus ceased to wither, enveloping the lotus seat, and slowly bloomed…

During this time, as the Ice Daoist fully immersed himself in the spirit tea for enlightenment and transformation,

The Vermilion Bird Token hidden in the sleeve of the Ice Daoist quivered silently, and then a figure quietly appeared in front of the tea table.

The youth in black clothing with pale skin seemed not at all surprised, smiling and nodding slightly:

“You’ve arrived?”

A teacup was immediately placed in front of the newcomer, the teapot slightly tilted, filling the cup with Jade Liquid-like Cloud Mist Tiansong.

The youth looked expectantly at the newcomer.

The newcomer did not refuse, slightly bowed with cupped hands, casually lifted the teacup, and drank it all in one go.

He closed his eyes briefly, as if savoring, then suddenly opened them, unable to help but praise:

“Excellent tea!”

“It truly deserves its reputation as a Class VI spirit tea! The Dao Intention is abundant, irresistible, just this cup of spirit tea is equivalent to half an Immortal Ascension, many thanks to the senior for your generosity!”

Seeing the person drinking the spirit tea with no sign of distress, the youth in black couldn’t help but raise his eyebrow slightly and shook his head:

“A Class IV cultivator drinking this tea without being disturbed… In my whole life, there are but few who could manage that.”

“It seems, you might indeed be able to help me break free from this barrier.”

“May I know your esteemed name, young friend?”

The newcomer smiled slightly, stretched tall in front of the youth, then said:

“The esteemed name is too grand for me, I am Deputy Sect Master Wang Ba from Wanxiang Sect of Jin in the Fenglin Continent.”

“Fenglin Continent… Jin…”

Xuan Yuanzi showed a thoughtful expression, then suddenly asked:

“Do you know Qin Lin?”

“Qin Lin?”

Wang Ba, the person in question, upon hearing the name, was momentarily startled, then suddenly remembered:

“Could it be Qin Lin Ancestor, the teacher of Chongyuan Patriarch?”

With a slight shock in his heart, he nonetheless did not conceal the relationship.

Xuan Yuanzi couldn’t help but show a reminiscent and emotional look:

“Chongyuanzi is a Patriarch from your lineage? That’s quite a coincidence.”

“These master and disciple… not just them, there’s another one, all of them could be considered great talents within the Little Cang World over the recent tens of thousands of years.”

“It’s a pity, even though they were about to undergo Cultivation Ascension in their heyday, they couldn’t help me.”

Wang Ba wasn’t too shocked upon hearing this.

The other party was undoubtedly a being who had lived through many years, surpassing the era of Qin Lin Ancestor and Chongyuan Patriarch.

Having had interactions, but still remaining here, the outcome was self-evident.

What made him curious was what kind of difficulties the other party encountered that even master and disciple like Qin Lin Ancestor and Chongyuan Patriarch couldn’t resolve.

“The barrier… Is it the Little Cang World?”

“With its strength, shouldn’t it have left the Little Cang World long ago? How could it be trapped here?”

Countless questions arose in Wang Ba’s mind.

As if seeing the doubts in Wang Ba’s heart, Xuan Yuanzi smiled and said:

“I was just thinking of sharing my story with this incarnation of yours, but since the main body is here, let’s talk to you instead.”

“Please do tell, senior.”

Wang Ba showed a listening demeanor.

Xuan Yuanzi nodded, his gaze slowly passing over Wang Ba, through the Ice Abyss, through the seawater, looking into the distant nothingness, his voice brimming with ancient times echoed in the deep sea:

“Beyond this world, there is a vast Realm Sea, within it thousands of domains, like countless stars… and in this Realm Sea, besides the domains, dangerous currents, and many perilous places, there also exists a group of life forms born from the Realm Sea, they are innately powerful, capable of clinging to the domains, sucking marrow and blood to nourish themselves, cultivators call them ‘World Eaters’…”

Listening to Xuan Yuanzi’s words, Wang Ba’s heart suddenly tightened, watching the other’s reminiscent look and the terrifying, ferocious turtle head below, a startling guess naturally sprung up.

And yet, it seemed Xuan Yuanzi didn’t notice the turmoil in Wang Ba’s heart and continued:

“…these ‘World Eaters’, they do not care how cultivators call them, because most of them have low Spiritual Wisdom, perhaps it’s the rule of the Realm Sea, those naturally possessing great power usually hardly possess intelligence… of course, things are not always so absolute, among these World Eaters, there are also some innately intelligent beings, cultivators call them ‘Innate Divine Demons’.”

“They are aware of the limitations of their race, very clear that the World Eaters wanting to break free from the Realm Sea by themselves is almost impossible, always driven by hunger, unable to avoid the end of their Lifespan, a sorrowful life, whereas those small life forms in the domains they care nothing for, have endless possibilities, even surpassing them, ascending from this Realm Sea… this inspired them, thus, some of the intelligent, determined and resolved ones, either found ways to escape into the domains, or simply abandoned their main bodies, as True Spirits, entering into various domains.”

Having said this, Xuan Yuanzi paused slightly, as if recollecting the moment he abandoned his physical body, the True Spirit transmigrating into the Little Cang World.

Wang Ba whispered quietly:

“So, senior, you came from beyond the domain?”

“Hmm?”

Hearing Wang Ba’s voice, Xuan Yuanzi suddenly snapped out of his reverie, but then chuckled:

“No, young friend, you’re mistaken, I’m not one of those Innate Divine Demons.”
