C18 – The Heavenmartial Godly Tortoise
Chu Yangxiang was overwhelmed with sadness. The Small Black Cauldron had forcefully chosen a useless bead. Had he selected the Profound Crystal Stone, his Profound Power might have soared by three or four realms.
The enigmatic Small Cauldron had swallowed the bead, leaving him with nothing.
“My treasure has been consumed by this Small Cauldron.”
In his palm, the Small Cauldron shimmered with black and yellow light, reminiscent of stars twinkling in the vast night sky.
Then, the Small Black Cauldron vanished.
“Where did it go?”
He left the treasure room, his mood somber, having acquired not a single treasure.
The Great Elder greeted him with a beaming smile, asking warmly, “Which treasure did you pick?”
Chu Yangxiang couldn’t admit that he had come away empty-handed.
Nor could he reveal that the bead had been consumed by the Small Black Cauldron.
Because the Small Black Cauldron was nowhere to be found.
“I chose the earthy yellow bead from the Jade Box.”
The Great Elder burst into hearty laughter, giving a thumbs-up. “You’ve claimed the Chu Family’s finest weapon, the most advanced cultivation technique, and the greatest treasure!”
Feeling the weight of the Great Elder’s commendation, Chu Yangxiang was hit by a wave of embarrassment. He hadn’t secured the best treasure; it had been devoured by his Small Cauldron.
His spirits sank.
What was the Chu Family’s most prized treasure truly worth?
The thought intensified Chu Yangxiang’s heartache.
Back at the Chu residence, the three of them sat together.
The pain was so intense it felt as though his body was tearing apart. Chu Yangxiang couldn’t endure it. “Senior, I beg for your mercy, I won’t call you a tortoise again.”
With a cold huff, the Heaven-martial Godly Tortoise retorted, “You should know, I have lived through ten cycles of reincarnation. Each cycle lasts a hundred thousand years, meaning I have lived for a million years. You ought to show me the proper respect.”
Chu Yangxiang was taken aback.
A million years was beyond his wildest imagination. He wondered if anyone had ever lived on this continent for that long.
“Senior, does that mean you’re immortal?” Chu Yangxiang asked, a hint of hope in his voice.
The Heaven-martial Godly Tortoise paused before nodding with a smug look, “Yes, I am immortal.”
Chu Yangxiang pondered, ‘Could this be true Longevity?’
Suddenly, Chu Yangxiang felt an excruciating pain throughout his body, causing him to cry out involuntarily.
“You impudent little guy, how dare you insult me?” the Heaven-martial Godly Tortoise exclaimed in anger.
Chu Yangxiang pleaded once more, “Senior, I beg your forgiveness. What shall I call you?”
“Just Heaven-martial will do.”
“Heaven-martial, what are you doing in my mind? Is the Small Cauldron causing this?” Chu Yangxiang inquired.
Heaven-martial looked at Chu Yangxiang with disdain. “You’re such a naive kid. That cauldron is a Divine Weapon, known as the Xuanwu Nine Horn Cauldron.”
“I get it, you’re formidable. But can’t you take that grimy The Small Black Cauldron and bother someone else with it? I finally obtained a pearl, only for the Small Cauldron to consume it. Return my pearl to me.”
The Heaven-martial Godly Tortoise, fuming, exhaled deeply. “That is a Supreme Grade Heaven Rank Treasure. The Xuanwu Nine Horn Cauldron has chosen you, and as its Weapon Spirit, I cannot leave.”
“You can’t leave? The Xuanwu Nine Horn Cauldron has acknowledged me as its master? So, am I your master too?” Chu Yangxiang seemed to grasp the crucial point. “Here’s the deal: return my pearl to me, and in exchange, you can accompany me. Does that sound fair?”
