Don't Provoke the Turtle

The Dustless Sea was not located within any major world; it floated in the cosmos, a planet of pure water. The entire planet was an ocean, boundless and without end.

There were no islands in the sea, nor was there a concept of a seabed.

Those with sufficient cultivation could dive from the surface of the sea on one side and emerge from the other—this was the theory, but aside from the Ancestral Being, no one had ever reached the core of the Dustless Sea on their own.

Apart from water, there was nothing else in the Dustless Sea, at least as far as the eye could see.

The Ancestral Being had suppressed the Dustless Sea for countless years, becoming a wonder of the myriad worlds.

Smoothing out the spatial rifts, with thunderous plasma churning beneath him, Qing Lei carried the sealed Feng Yiju towards the Ancestral Being. Previously connected to Su He through a spatial channel, the Ancestral Being's giant egg now seemed to be right behind Qing Lei. Yet now, the distance between the turtle and the egg was unfathomable.

In fact, from any angle of the myriad worlds, the first thing one would see was the silhouette of the Ancestral Being. When the Ancestral Being transformed into an egg, what one saw was a colossal egg.

"Uncle Ancestral!" Qing Lei spoke softly, and the Dustless Sea suddenly parted, allowing him direct access to its core. Here, the void was devoid of water, but a giant egg floated up and down.

The Ancestral Being had always been at the core of the Dustless Sea.

"Uncle Ancestral! The immortal body," Qing Lei said solemnly, lying in front of the giant egg.

Beneath his left claw was the unconscious Feng Yiju, while his right claw held a single horn, which bore a striking resemblance to the horn atop Feng Yiju's spiritual essence.

This was the harvest from the Emperor's Palace this time.

After a while, a voice came from within the egg: "No matter! The talents of the Yuanzun clan have been studied by many, haven't they?"

That was about the power of rebirth and immortality—who wouldn't want it?

"My Dragon Turtle clan disdains such research!" Qing Lei declared proudly.

On the Ancestral Being's egg, an image of a Dragon Turtle appeared, gazing at Qing Lei with a smile: "Is that so?"

"Of course!" Qing Lei said with pride. "The methods of the Yuanzun clan only increase the number of times one can be revived. Who can force my Dragon Turtle clan to be reborn..."

His voice suddenly lowered as he looked at the Ancestral Being's egg and whispered, "The revival method used by little Su He in the White Spirit Tomb?"

He had only heard about it from Su He, but the Ancestral Being had seen it with his own eyes through Su He. Naturally, he was even more convinced.

That White Spirit fellow had actually researched the Yuanzun clan behind their backs?
