Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 668 - 688: Black Tortoise Race
"Don't ask too much, you'll understand once you get there. My master is waiting for you." The enormous turtle said.
At this moment, Chu Linfeng was feeling confused, encountering another turtle inside the Profound Ice Turtle, and this turtle could speak human language. It seemed likely to be a member of the Black Tortoise Race, but he couldn't comprehend how the Black Tortoise Race could exist within a Profound Ice Turtle; it was truly perplexing.
Chu Linfeng hesitated no more and said to the turtle, "You're from the Black Tortoise Race, aren't you? I didn't expect you to be inside the Profound Ice Turtle, that's quite a surprise."
"There are plenty more surprises ahead; just follow me." The turtle said, swimming forward quickly without looking back.
Chu Linfeng had no choice but to follow behind, utilizing the Water Transformation Technique to move in the water. Before long, the turtle ahead stopped, and said to Chu Linfeng, "Here is the Teleportation Gate of the Black Tortoise Race. Entering this gate means entering the territory of my race."
After saying this, its body vanished right before Chu Linfeng's eyes. Chu Linfeng sensed a surge of energy fluctuations, and seeing the turtle's words seemed to be true, he did not hesitate to enter the invisible teleportation gate.
A powerful pulling force emerged, and soon Chu Linfeng arrived in a place filled with birdsong and floral scents, surrounded by lush trees, somewhat reminiscent of the White Tiger Race's environment.
Chu Linfeng was slightly bewildered. Logically, this place should also be inside the Profound Ice Turtle, and yet there was land and trees, which require sunlight to grow. How was this possible? Everything was too mysterious to accept.
Soon, several figures appeared before Chu Linfeng, and one of them said to him, "Sect Master Chu, please come! The Hall Master is waiting for you in the main hall."
After glancing at the speaker, Chu Linfeng said, "You are the turtle that led me here, right? The Black Tortoise Race is indeed mysterious, I've truly seen something remarkable today."
Chu Linfeng didn't ask how the opposite party knew he was the Green Frost Sect Master; since they could recognize him at first glance, they likely had information or heard about him. However, he didn't know what the Hall Master of the Black Tortoise Race wanted to say to him.
After walking down a path paved with unnamed stones, a resplendent hall appeared before Chu Linfeng. At the entrance, two stone platforms stood on each side, each carved with an image of a turtle.
Above the door frame of the hall, the words "Black Tortoise Divine Hall" were written in a majestic style. Standing on either side of the entrance were two middle-aged men in white attire, motionless like ancient pines.
Upon entering the hall, Chu Linfeng saw about ten people staring at him, their eyes filled with curiosity and disdain. However, a middle-aged man in a red robe descended from the top of the hall.
Upon seeing Chu Linfeng, he immediately laughed and said, "Qingshuang, you have finally arrived. It's been nearly ten thousand years since we parted at the Divine Battlefield, waiting for you wasn't easy."
When Chu Linfeng saw this middle-aged man, he immediately tried to recall who he was. Although he knew this was the Hall Master of the Black Tortoise Race, he couldn't remember what he was called on the Divine Battlefield, momentarily feeling puzzled.
Chu Linfeng had memories of people from the White Tiger and Vermilion Bird races, but he had no impression of the Black Tortoise Race, so he could only vaguely say, "Your fate is indeed strong; ten thousand years have passed, and you're still alive."
These words sounded unpleasant to those inside the hall, as each person looked angrily at Chu Linfeng. One person couldn't help but shout angrily, "How dare you be so disrespectful to our Hall Master? Don't forget this is the Black Tortoise Race, not your Green Frost Sect, so curb your impertinence here."
Chu Linfeng paused slightly and then said, "Hehe, what's wrong with an old friend joking around? There's no need for you to butt in; isn't that right, Black Tortoise?"
"I knew your mouth would still be as loose as ever," the Master of Black Tortoise Hall said to Chu Linfeng, then glared at the speaker, saying, "Why do you interrupt while I'm talking with Sect Master Chu? How unruly! Aren't you afraid he'll laugh at you?"
The speaker originally wanted to retort but swallowed his words upon seeing the Hall Master's glare, standing there with an angry face.
"How did you know I came to your Black Tortoise Race? Where exactly is this place? I assume it can't be inside that Profound Ice Turtle!" Chu Linfeng asked at this point.
"Qingshuang, come up and sit down. Let's have a good chat. I know your memory hasn't fully awakened yet, so I must tell you some things again. You used to visit our Black Tortoise Race often back in the day; otherwise, why would my clan members recognize you?
Moreover, you're now inside the body of a Profound Ice Turtle. Its vast size is beyond your imagination. Back then, we once had it reveal its full body, and we flew for a day and a night just to see it all. Here is just a small part of its inner ice mountain," the Master of Black Tortoise Hall said.
Chu Linfeng was extremely shocked at this moment. Such a massive body is thousands, even tens of thousands of times bigger than that creature he had seen before. Even if he mastered all the martial skills in the Cyan Frost Sword, he still might not be able to kill it. Perhaps only those peerless experts within the Xuanyuan Emperor Palace could manage.
"How did you know I was coming to your Black Tortoise Race, and how did you know my memory hasn't fully awakened? I'm really confused by you," Chu Linfeng asked, ignoring what others thought of him.
"Our Black Tortoise Race possesses the ability of divination. I recently performed a divination and learned that an old friend would come, so I specifically instructed the Profound Ice Turtle to absorb you into its body and had someone bring you here. In the past, you didn't call me Black Tortoise; you called me Little Wuzi. From your expression when you entered, I could tell you were very curious about this place, so I concluded that your memory hasn't fully recovered yet," the Master of Black Tortoise Hall explained.
Chu Linfeng finally understood where he was mistaken, so he smiled and said, "Then you should know the purpose of my visit to the Black Tortoise Race this time. How is Young Master Feiyu doing these days?"
"Kid, don't be too arrogant. If you want to take away the young master of our Black Tortoise Race, let's see how qualified you are. Just looking at you, you only seem to be at the Divine Martial Realm, yet you dare to boast here. Do you believe I'll crush you with a single palm?" an elder suddenly said.
Chu Linfeng said nothing but glanced at the elder. However, at this time, the Master of Black Tortoise Hall angrily rebuked, "Second Elder, you talk too much. Qingshuang is the most distinguished guest of our Black Tortoise Race, and you dare to be so disrespectful to him. Go to Wall-Facing Cliff and face the wall for ten years!"
For saying one wrong word, one has to face the wall for ten years. The Master of Black Tortoise Hall is indeed formidable. The Second Elder said angrily, "Master, why should this guy take away the young master? His power is so feeble, I would never allow it unless he can defeat me; otherwise, I refuse to accept it."
The Master of Black Tortoise Hall looked at Chu Linfeng but said nothing. However, the other people standing in the hall started talking, and they all believed that Chu Linfeng's strength was too weak to take Young Master Feiyu away.
In an instant, the hall was filled with discussions. Some suggested Chu Linfeng should compete against the Second Elder, while others proposed he should duel with some stronger disciples within the clan. If he could defeat the disciples, only then would he qualify to compete with the Second Elder.
Chu Linfeng knew the Master of Black Tortoise Hall was waiting for his response, so he smiled and said, "I usually don't show my strength casually in front of others. Of course, if you truly think I'm weak, I have no words. I must take Young Master Feiyu with me, so it's best not to force me."
"Haha, today I've heard the funniest joke I've heard in millennia. If you're afraid to compete with me, then leave our Black Tortoise Race immediately. This is no place for the weak. I don't care who you are, Qingshuang or not. In this old man's eyes, only the truly powerful deserve my respect. If you can defeat me, naturally there will be no more to say. If you lack the courage, then leave at once," the Second Elder said.
Chu Linfeng glanced at the Master of Black Tortoise Hall and said, "Is this how your Black Tortoise Race treats guests? It's not that I don't want to compete with him; I'm just afraid that if I accidentally kill him, you'll blame me."
"Qingshuang, although I am the hall master, some matters require everyone's consent, and the issue of Young Master Feiyu is one of them. If it were any other matter, I would undoubtedly agree to it. I suggest you compete with him. Just remember to show some mercy," the Master of Black Tortoise Hall said.
In fact, he also wanted to see how Chu Linfeng's strength had developed over the years. He was well aware of his reincarnation. The divination art of the Black Tortoise Race was unparalleled in the world. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
"Master, did you say something wrong? Asking him to show mercy to me? You overestimate him! It's good enough if I don't kill him. I really don't understand what you're thinking," the Second Elder said with a puzzled expression.
"On account of your hall master, I'll spare your life. I know the defensive power of your Black Tortoise Race is very strong. If I can defeat you, can I take Young Master Feiyu away?" Chu Linfeng asked.
"If you can defeat me, naturally you can take our young master to open the Netherworld's entrance. But if you can't win, leave our Black Tortoise Race right away," the Second Elder said disdainfully.
Chu Linfeng glanced at the others and said, "I wonder if you'll agree with the Second Elder's words? I'm sure your hall master will agree, but I'd like to hear your opinions."
"If you can defeat the Second Elder, we will naturally agree. Our Black Tortoise Race stands by its word, unlike you humans, who are full of treachery and treachery, with no faith in your words," one of them said.
"Alright, in that case, let's step outside. Today I want to see how strong the defensive power of your Black Tortoise Race truly is," Chu Linfeng said, and with a flash, he left the hall...
