In the midst of the hurry, Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao were both startled upon hearing the giant turtle utter the word "princess" in a voice full of anger.
And after the turtle seed to have exhausted all its strength to vocalize that sentence, which in its eyes was complete, it receded in aura and beca motionless, simply lying in the direction of the valley exit, with its massive head on the ground, watching Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao, and the little fox on Sun Wukong’s back, with its bell-like large eyes!
"Monkey, is your nickna ’princess’? Who gave you that na?" Xi Zhao said, his face full of shock, as he turned to speak to Sun Wukong!
"My nickna is ’Walker Sun’! Is that your nickna? Do you recognize this giant turtle?" Sun Wukong put the little fox on the ground and rolled his eyes at Xi Zhao, refusing to show any weakness. However, after speaking, both of them realized sothing and suddenly focused their attention on the little fox that was still asleep!
Since neither of their nas was ’princess’, it was obvious that only the little fox could be addressed as such. They glanced again at the Saint Armor Turtle at the front and found that the giant turtle was now obediently lying still on the ground. Its earlier arrogance and dominance now seed sowhat cautious and tentative.
Ignoring the Saint Armor Turtle, Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao hurriedly woke up the sweetly sleeping little fox. With great difficulty, they roused the little fox, and at that mont, the Saint Armor Turtle suddenly stood up and opened its huge mouth. A voice shot out, nearly blasting away Sun Wukong’s soul!
"Pri-, pri-, pri-, princess!" Although it was still challenging to speak, the voice was considerably clearer than before. But this thunderous, loud sound distressed the little fox imnsely!
"You noisy giant turtle, hold on, are you the sa pile of rocks from before? You’re actually a turtle?" The little fox had previously been standing in front of the giant turtle, which was lying on the ground asleep. Thus, the little fox happened to see the vague outline of a face in the pile of rocks and decided to sweep away the dust with its tail for a clearer view.
Unexpectedly, as she swept, a pair of giant eyes on the rocks suddenly opened. That scared the little fox into crying and, crying, she fell asleep. This slumber was so deep that not even the turtle’s repeated calls of ’princess, princess, princess’ could wake her. And upon awakening, she was startled by the thunder-like voice, causing her to lose her temper outright.
Strangely, the Saint Armor Turtle, which seed very afraid of the little fox, visibly shrank its neck back when yelled at by the small creature. Seeing the little fox awake, and as the turtle showed no sign of attacking but rather seed odd, Xi Zhao told the little fox about the turtle calling her ’princess’.
No sooner had Xi Zhao finished speaking than the little fox suddenly collapsed onto the ground, continuously repeating the words ’princess, princess.’ Given her behavior, it was clear that the little fox’s condition wasn’t natural; sothing must have caused her amnesia. And the word ’princess’ was evidently very important to her.
Xi Zhao quickly used his soul power to calm the little fox, then looked at Sun Wukong with a headache. Seeing Sun Wukong’s confused face, Xi Zhao realized Sun Wukong was clueless as well.
The Saint Armor Turtle, which had previously retracted its neck, saw the little fox seemingly in pain and suddenly stretched its neck out again. Its massive body vanished instantly, and the next mont, it transford into a much smaller turtle, about two ters long and one ter high, appearing next to Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong, who had been watching the Saint Armor Turtle, saw the turtle there one blink earlier, but with the next blink, it disappeared, and with another blink, the now smaller turtle had instantly moved right beside him. Shocked was all he could feel—this was true instantaneous movent, a skill only those with a profound mastery of space and ti possess.
Even Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao at that ti could only move quickly, and while they could break free from the spatial constraints of minor worlds, they couldn’t move through space. Not to ntion the Divine Kingdom, which was infinitely more advanced than minor worlds.
Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao now understood that the Saint Armor Turtle likely ant no harm to them, and it was very possible that the turtle was not a soul beast but from the Demon Clan! Although the turtle’s speech was inarticulate and maddening, it was undoubtedly human language!
In this universe, any being with spiritual wisdom capable of speech, besides their own racial communication thods, would speak a special language. This language was what Sun Wukong spoke in the small Pangu Realm world. However, this language was not unique to the Pangu Realm, but left behind by the cosmic pioneers!
This language belonged to the universe, and no matter the world or kingdom, any creature absorbing nature’s spiritual energy and following the Heavenly Dao or Cosmic Law in their cultivation would use this language. It was as if this language was woven into the Heavenly Dao or the Law.
However, that was not the only language. For example, when Sun Wukong spoke with his own Monkey Tribe, aside from using this universal language, he would also use the unique language of the Monkey Tribe for communication!
But there was one thing, if you wanted to use those spells, talismans, or magical techniques that required chanting and the utilization of Heavenly Dao or Laws, you had to use this universal cosmic language, or else you wouldn’t receive the favor of the Heavenly Dao and the Laws.
Therefore, the language that the Saint Armor Turtle had just spoken was precisely what was known as the Han language in the Pangu Realm. So Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao both suspected that the Saint Armor Turtle might be from the Demon Clan.
However, upon further thought, they rembered that the Saint Armor Turtle was a Nine Patterns Supre, and the soul beasts at the Nine Patterns Supre level could already transform into human forms, so their ability to speak was not strange at all. Instead of pondering why it could speak, it was better to wonder how this turtle could speak so well!
When the Saint Armor Turtle appeared beside Sun Wukong, his first instinct was neither to dodge nor to attack, but to reach out and grab the World Suppressing Stele still embedded in the turtle’s shell! At that mont, the World Suppressing Stele had shrunk to about twenty centiters in height, which was the first ti Sun Wukong had seen the stele shrink due to external force.
However, Sun Wukong tugged at the stele with his right hand and found that it wouldn’t co out, which surprised him. Bending down for a closer look, he noticed that the stele had punched a hole through the thick shell on the head of the Saint Armor Turtle, but had only penetrated halfway before becoming tightly wedged inside.
Not only was the Saint Armor Turtle unhard, now the stele couldn’t even be removed. From this, Sun Wukong figured that when the stele had hit the Saint Armor Turtle on the head, the creature’s sudden roar was likely out of fright rather than pain!
It was like having an incomparable shield that nothing could ever dent, but one day while walking with it, a child’s thrown stone puts a huge hole in it. You too would certainly be startled!
Failing to remove the stele in one try, Sun Wukong didn’t say a word but just leaped up, placed a foot on the turtle’s back, and with both hands pulled hard on the stele. Despite his face turning red with effort, the stele didn’t show the slightest sign of budging.
As for the Saint Armor Turtle, it either reacted slowly or simply didn’t feel the weight of Sun Wukong standing on it. It just stretched out its head, watching the little fox that had been cald by Xi Zhao and was now laying on the ground.
While Xi Zhao was slightly surprised by the Saint Armor Turtle’s reaction, he wasn’t overly shocked. He slowly retracted his soul power. Although the Saint Armor Turtle seed to harbor no ill intentions towards them, Xi Zhao did not let his guard down.
The Saint Armor Turtle didn’t pay any attention to Xi Zhao and instead stuck out its head, gently spitting out a fist-sized, erald green pearl. This pearl emitted a faint green glow, and under the sunlight, it looked like a natural Luminous Pearl. Carefully controlling the pearl, it floated above the little fox’s head, the green light brightening slightly.
After the pearl circled above the little fox, the Saint Armor Turtle swallowed it back into its stomach.
At this mont, Sun Wukong was still furiously trying to remove the World Suppressing Stele, while Xi Zhao swallowed hard. The mont he saw the Saint Armor Turtle spit out the pearl, Xi Zhao’s heart clenched tight and his heartbeat accelerated drastically. The Saint Armor Turtle seed to feel sothing as well, so it only controlled the pearl to fly a circle before retrieving it.
In Xi Zhao’s gaze, the Saint Armor Turtle sensed a threat, a greed for its Soul Bead.
Although every Soul Beast has a Soul Bead, ordinary beads are rely a concentration of soul energy, possessing imnse soul power but without any special features.
However, once a Soul Beast advances to a Nine Patterns Supre, the Soul Bead would begin to absorb and condense the Cosmic Law. When a Soul Beast successfully rges with the Nine Cosmic Laws, that Soul Bead turns into a Divine Bead!
A Divine Bead is a Soul Bead with divine skills, which vary according to the Soul Beast’s own attributes, though most often they entail divine skills pertaining to space and ti!
If a Soul Beast could completely rge this Divine Bead again, it would imdiately ascend beyond the Supre level and reach the rank of a Domain Lord.
Thus, cultivation is a continuous process of absorbing, rging, condensing, absorbing again, and rging again! The ultimate goal is to beco an existence equal to the universe itself. Only by achieving this, can one rise above all beings in the universe!
(Additionally, due to work reasons, the update schedule will beco unpredictable, and the specific timings will be announced in the group!)
