Chapter 317: Dreamlike Experience
Translator: Flying Lines
Proofread by Claire.KK
There were Snow Ginseng, Nine Twist Red Core Iron, thousand-year old Spirit Flower of Purity and Nihility with thirty-six leaves, Thunder Crystal with original spirit...
Lin Xun could not help but tremble when he saw these treasures, which only existed in ancient times!
It was exceedingly rare in the whole empire and could only be found in the most abundant imperial treasure house.
But now, they were regarded as garbage and thrown by Green Turtle King to Lin Xun, which made Lin Xun lapse into ecstasy.
“These are all useless thing in the eyes of Green Turtle King. I can’t imagine how rare the treasure it had picked out is...”
Lin Xun wondered. ‘Wealth moves people.’ Facing so many natural treasures, Lin Xun could not help being ravished with joy.
Anyway, it was normal to act like this. Even the strongman of Tao Insight Ream would not behave better than Lin Xun did.
“I can’t go further. In the distance there is the second layer of the relic. The power of divinity surrounding it is too terrifying. I’ll be killed in a flash if I just get close to it!”
All of a sudden, Green Turtle King, who was leading the way in front, stopped with a solemn voice.
Lin Xun immediately woke up from his absent mind and looked up. The sea water in the far distance was no longer clear blue. It presented some gloomy and cold aura frightening as the entrance of an abyss.
At a glance, Lin Xun felt chilled and creepy. Both his mind and body felt a fatal terror.
It seemed that the spirit the relic released could kill him easily!
Right at the moment, Green Turtle King had turned around and went back the same way they came.
“Your Majesty, how can there be a second layer of this relic?”
Lin Xun rushed to catch up Green Turtle King.
“As far as I know, the scope of this relic is so large that it can be regarded as another world. There are many taboos and dangers in it. It does not stop at the second layer. There are the third, fourth and fifth layers...”
“I don’t know how many layers there are, but it’s certain that only the strongmen of Life-death Realm can go and search the second layer.”
This introduction made Lin Xun feel an upsurge of emotion. He suddenly realized that the ancient relic was bigger than he thought!
Since there were so many natural treasures in the first layer, what amazing treasures there would be in the second layer?
It could be inferred that the higher the layer was, the more valuable things were in it!
Lin Xun was eager to search further, he would like to break into it and see how many secrets there were in the relic. But he didn’t have enough strength.
Soon, he calmed down.
Green Turtle King had introduced that there were many taboos and dangers in the relic. Life-death Realm practitioners only got the power that enable themselves to enter the second layer. Therefore, the deeper place of the relic would be horribly dangerous!
“Why don’t you go?”
Lin Xun asked.
“Although my strength has reached the first level in the world, I dare not take my own life for fun. The second layer of the relic...”
When it came to this, Green Turtle King sighed unwillingly, “It’s not the thing I can explore now. Once I get involved in it, I will face much vital dangers and variables. I’m afraid that I have only ten percent chance to survive in it, so I can only give up.”
Lin Xun made a sound of understanding. Although Green Turtle King liked to boast and its words were often exaggerated, Lin Xun distinguished its fear about the second layer of relic.
Before long, Green Turtle King took Lin Xun to a sea with fast current.
“That is?”
At the first sight, Lin Xun saw a familiar underwater vortex, which was spinning wildly in the far distance, setting off countless terrible waves.
There was no doubt that the terrible tearing force could smash everything!
When he was at the bottom of the river outside Yellow Dragon City, Lin Xun was swept away by such a vortex by accident and came to the ancient relic in the Soul Oblivion Sea.
“That is Void Vortex.”
There was hatred deep in the pupils of Green Turtle King’s eyes, “Although it is on the bottom of the sea, there is void turbulence deep in the vortex. No one in the world could survive once he is involved in it!”
“But it is also the only exit from here, which trapped me thousands of years.”
Resentment appeared in Green Turtle King’s voice.
“Your Majesty, are you sure that I can return to my previous position as long as I pass here smoothly?”
Lin Xun asked with thoughts.
“No, I can’t guarantee that to you. The mystery of void turbulence is too profound and obscure to understand that I can’t comprehend it completely. But I’m sure that if you want to leave here, you can only go through it.”
As Green Turtle King explained, excitement was burning in its eyes. It stared at Lin Xun and said, “Young man, I treat you well along the way. Now, would you like to take me away with you?”
“Sure.”
Lin Xun answered happily.
“Whoopee!”
Green Turtle King raised its head and laughed.
But when Lin Xun was going to take action, Green Turtle King suddenly stopped him “Wait a minute.”
Lin Xun was somewhat confused. He looked at Green Turtle King, guessing what it was going to do.
Green Turtle King seemed to have extremely complex feelings. There was reluctance and frustration. But after a while, it turned into relief, “Do you have wine?”
“Yes.”
Lin Xun reserved some wine in his Small Sumeru Ring. He didn’t have the habit of drinking, but he had a habit of buying wine for Shue Jin when he was in Mist City.
“Once we get in the void vortex, we may be separated immediately. Why don’t we take this opportunity to have a good drink?”
Green Turtle King looked at Lin Xun with a trace of expectation.
It had been trapped here for thousands of years. It was so lonely that no one could talk with it like Lin Xun did. Now they would set apart, which made it feel a loss.
“Nice suggestion!”
Lin Xun took out the wine and drank with Green Turtle King in the sea.
After drinking, Green Turtle King talked a lot about itself to Lin Xun. It seemed like that Green Turtle King really took Lin Xun as his confidant at this moment.
By the way, it was more like a catharsis after long-time loneliness. Others who were not trapped for thousands of years couldn’t understand its feelings.
Lin Xun just drank with smile and behaved like a patient listener.
It turned out that Green Turtle King came from Azure-light Island in the deep Soul Oblivion Sea. It was a hegemon in the sea area of Azure-light Island, so it called itself King.
It entered the ancient relic by mistake in his practicing road and was trapped for thousands of years. It couldn’t find any hope of escaping until it met Lin Xun now.
To Lin Xun’s surprise, Green Turtle King was more than 2,600 years old. But it just passed its infancy in the green turtle world. It was still at the growth period, so Green Turtle King was far from adulthood.
In other words, Green Turtle King was no different from a young human being.
Lin Xun suddenly realized that although Green Turtle King like an elder, he often bluffed its behaves out of rules. It was proud and vain and enjoyed to be praised, which was no different from young people.
But Lin Xun still felt a little awkward to regard Green Turtle King as a peer since it had lived for more than 2000 years.
After they drank all the reserved wine, Green Turtle King said with emotions, “Brother Lin Xun, when you reach Tao Insight Realm, you will understand that the world is bigger than you think. Compared with the whole world, Ziyao Empire is just a small place. If you want to travel around the world in the future, you can come to Azure-light Island. I will show you the real fantasy! ”
During talks and drinks, Green Turtle King had changed its way of addressing Lin Xun and regarded him as a peer intimate friend.
At the moment, it invited Lin Xun sincerely.
Lin Xun was also touched. He didn’t expect that he would come to the sea area tens of thousands of kilometers away from Ziyao Empire and made friends with a green turtle, a spirit beast.
Lin Xun lamented the impermanence of the situation. At the same time, he felt extremely happy about meeting Green Turtle King.
“I will, brother Green Turtle King. I’ll visit you when I solve all my troubles in the future.”
Lin Xun promised right away.
Green Turtle King raised its head and laughed again. They went together to the underwater vortex without more words.
Boom
Vortex revolved, with terrifying power of devouring and tearing. Just for a moment, Lin Xun and Green Turtle King were involved in it.
At the moment when Lin Xun lost consciousness, Lin Xun could see clearly that Green Turtle King turned into a tall and handsome young man in green robe!
This guy had the cultivation to transform itself into a human being!
When this thought flashed through his mind, Lin Xun felt the darkness in front of him and his body seemed to be dragged by an invisible big hand. He soon disappeared in the boundless void turbulence.
...
Gurgling ~ ~
Lin Xun was awakened by the sound of torrent.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was still under the water. But he could clearly feel that he was not in the ancient relic.
Lin Xun shook his head to clear his mind and took a deep breath to rush up to the surface of the river. Just in a flash, he came out of the river that was 300 hundred meters deep.
The night was dark and starry. On both sides of the river, there were rolling mountains. Between it, there were roars of fierce animals from time to time.
After a careful observation, Lin Xun finally determined that he had returned to the Empire, and he was just along the way of that big river outside Yellow Dragon City!
He sat down in a rock. There was a bit of trance between his eyebrows. He doubted what he had experienced before was only a dream.
But when he found out all the treasures in his Small Sumeru Ring, he convinced himself that it was a real experience!
The mysterious void vortex at the bottom of the river led him there!
It was like a mysterious tunnel in the void that could transfer things with incredible power.
“Take care of yourself.”
Lin Xun murmured in his heart and the figure of Green Turtle King appeared in his mind.
Whoosh!
Without hesitation, Lin Xun went forward in the dark night without delay. Since he came back safely, it was time to hurry to the Forbidden City!
