Eternal Life as False Emperor
Chapter 345 - 310: White Lotus Eternal Life Sect
Inside the cave.
Guiyun Wanderer, who was healing, suddenly opened his eyes, and his body involuntarily started to shake.
Numerous stones were falling off the surrounding cave walls, and cracks were appearing.
Even the ground and the scattered rocks underneath him started to tremble.
"What’s going on... An earthquake?"
He pressed his hands on the ground and quickly stood up.
After all, his injuries were about 70-80% healed, so he needed to leave quickly.
Otherwise, if the cave collapsed, he might be stuck here forever.
He reached out and gathered all the scattered items into his sleeve.
At this time, the trace of Innate Spiritual Qi had been completely consumed, and he didn’t know where it had gone.
His figure was ghostly, and he quickly rushed out of the cave, ascending the peak.
Before he could steady himself, he suddenly looked towards the east of the sea island.
"What... what is that monster...!"
In the east of Spiritless Island, amidst the vast sea, a gigantic head suddenly appeared.
The head was like a mountain, covered with hard boulders and corals, as if it had been in the seabed for countless years.
Masses of seawater mixed with fish and shrimp fell from mid-air, crashing heavily into the sea.
What’s more peculiar is that this enormous head slowly rose from the sea surface, moving towards the island.
And as this massive head moved, the island they were on, along with two other islands, began to shake.
Numerous Canglan Human Race Cultivators and Nether Spirit Race Cultivators swiftly moved to the peaks of mountains and trees, carefully observing this enormous head.
Looking down from above, Guiyun Wanderer even saw numerous rotating whirlpools around this head.
"This is..."
He thought rapidly, staring intently at this head and the tremoring island, exclaiming, "Spiritless Island... is part of this gigantic beast!"
"Turtle!"
"This is a spirit turtle, positioned on the Nether Spirit Sea!"
"The reason Spiritless Island is devoid of spiritual qi is precisely because of this giant turtle!"
"Boom..."
Along with the thunderous sound, the three islands started to rise slowly.
Masses of seawater receded as the islands rose, revealing the parts beneath the sea.
Huge boulders, numerous coral reefs, many ravines, and fish all appeared in front of the numerous cultivators.
Countless voices of awe, shock, and anger arose, people gathering in small groups, looking at the giant head on the distant ocean with disbelief.
Seeing this, Guiyun Wanderer’s eyes flickered and he immediately rushed down the mountain.
No matter what, this giant turtle seemed to have ill intentions, so it’s best to hide first and then...
"Boom...!"
Another violent roar resounded, and the island shook violently again.
A large part of the island, or rather the body of the giant turtle, rose from beneath the sea.
Its hard and massive body actually connected the three islands together!
No!
To be precise, these three islands were all parts of the giant turtle’s shell.
As the giant turtle rose, they all became visible.
Especially the smallest island they were on, which was startlingly close to the giant head.
At this moment, the giant turtle’s head finally turned towards the sky above the island, several miles away from the island.
It seemed... its neck had stretched to the limit and could not move further.
Amidst the shocked gazes of numerous cultivators, it slowly opened its gigantic turtle mouth, letting out a deep howl.
"Roar~...!"
Immediately afterward, a tremendous suction emerged from the giant turtle’s mouth.
Inhale!
"Whoosh...!"
In an instant, countless boulders, trees, desolate beasts, human race cultivators, and Nether Spirit Race cultivators were all drawn in by this enormous suction, rushing toward its turtle mouth.
"Ah...!"
"Save me!"
"Master Hu!"
"Lord Snake King!"
"Fellow Daoist Chen... save me!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh...!"
Numerous panicked voices echoed, but no matter how much they struggled, they couldn’t escape the suction of the giant turtle.
At least a hundred desolate beasts, human figures, and Nether Spirit Race cultivators were all swallowed into its mouth!
Amidst the terrified eyes of everyone, the giant turtle actually started chewing.
The harsh grinding and crashing sounds resounded, and everything in its mouth, whether it be stones, trees, desolate beasts, or humans, was chewed into pieces and swallowed entirely!
"Run!"
"Get away!"
"Look at its eyes...!"
Finally coming to their senses, countless figures started to flee across the sea island.
Some sought caves to hide, others held tightly to big trees, while others joined forces to jointly resist the inhalation.
"Such strong suction..."
Guiyun Wanderer re-hidden behind a mountain, stared in shock at the enormous head.
"Is this beast... a True Spirit?"
"But why does it seem... so slow-witted?"
"Is it old? Or perhaps a juvenile True Spirit?"
"A giant turtle, huh?"
Zheng Yi, through his Divine Thought on the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror Fragment, also locked his gaze on the distant giant turtle’s head, his heart full of shock.
Is this... a True Spirit?
Is it the reason why there’s no spiritual qi on Spiritless Island?
Then, could the lack of spiritual qi in their Profound Cyan Realm also be related to it?
Or rather, related to a similar reason?
A powerful creature, hidden in the Profound Cyan Realm, secretly absorbing spiritual qi?
This...
Thinking of this, Zheng Yi furrowed his brows slightly.
No.
The disappearance of spiritual qi on Spiritless Island is because of this giant turtle.
Any spiritual qi on Spiritless Island vanishes due to the existence of this giant turtle.
But in the Profound Cyan Realm, although spiritual qi disappeared, it did not continuously vanish.
Currently, there is still a small amount of spiritual qi in the Profound Cyan Realm.
Especially due to him, which led to the birth of ten strands of Innate Spiritual Qi!
At this moment, because of the turtle’s movements, as the islands floated up, the other two islands also connected to their island.
Numerous figures were rushing towards them from afar.
Particularly eye-catching was a group of people dressed in white Daoist robes.
All of them moved extremely fast, as if mastering a unique array.
Guiyun Wanderer’s pupils slightly constricted, staring intently at this group of figures.
Especially a leading man and woman, who, surrounded by many white-clad people, quickly set foot on their island.
The man, seemingly about forty years old, with white hair but a youthful face, looked exceptionally handsome.
The woman was even stranger, with all white hair, not pale but silvery, including her silver eyes that emitted a very strange aura.
On their chests was a distinct symbol embroidered.
A five-petaled lotus in full bloom, exquisitely crafted.
Seeing these people, particularly the emblem embroidered on their chests, Guiyun Wanderer hiding under the mountain involuntarily gasped.
"These people are... the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect!!!"
