The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1227: Divine Turtle

As the sea of fog covering the mountaintop gradually dispersed, one silhouette after another appeared within Ling Feng's field of vision. Almost everyone who came into view was a high king-tier expert or even a Human Emperor expert. The number of people was far greater than expected.

In reality, Ling Feng had only seen about twenty earlier, but once the mist cleared, the number present exceeded one hundred!

Among these hundred or so people, more than ten were Human Emperors. Most of them were early-tier Human Emperors, and most were quite old.

That made sense, as most of these people were wandering cultivators. Their talent could not compare with genuine prodigies, otherwise they would have gone to compete for the Tianlan Sea Token. With the Venerable of the Desolate Sea guiding them, the safety was naturally far better than gambling on an ancient array like this one.

Ling Feng narrowed his eyes. All those gazes were quietly sizing one another up. Clearly none of them had expected so many high-level experts to gather at the summit of Misty Sea Volcano Island.

Ling Feng's expression tightened slightly. Without drawing attention, he moved Tuoba Yan behind him. His eyes carried a faint hint of caution. He said in a low voice, "Miss Lan, it seems quite a few people got the news!"

Lan Yuhuang replied, "There is nothing we can do, the Murong Clan used the opportunity from the Sea of Miracles to become the undisputed ruler of the Tianlan Sea Region. Who would not be jealous or doesn't want a share? Besides, many martial practitioners over forty cannot compete for the Tianlan Sea Token. They can only come here to look for opportunity, so the numbers were bound to be large."

"Oh?" Ling Feng touched the bridge of his nose and glanced at Lan Yuhuang. He narrowed his eyes. "When I treated your injuries last time, I noticed your bone age was under forty. Why did you not go compete for the Tianlan Sea Token? With your strength as a Human Emperor, you are not weaker than Di Xuan."

"Hmph!"

At the mention of that treatment, Lan Yuhuang's cheeks reddened. She shot Ling Feng a ruthless glare and gritted her teeth. "Your grandaunt would never go beg for something from the Murong Clan! My Wudu Island was destroyed by them, otherwise how would I have been reduced to a wandering cultivator with no home!"

"So that is how it is."

Ling Feng nodded slightly. He had not expected Lan Yuhuang to hold such a deep grudge against the Murong Clan. No wonder someone so young could break into the Human Emperor realm. She was clearly on a different level from ordinary wandering cultivators. That meant she must have been a sect disciple before, and likely one with a significant status.

Once the mist dispersed, the wandering cultivators on the summit were delighted yet wary. Every one of them was looking around, waiting for someone else to make the first move. No one dared step onto the bridge.

At that moment, everyone saw an old turtle carrying a young man climbing up the mountain.

Ling Feng narrowed his eyes and studied the turtle under the youth's feet. That unimpressive looking turtle was actually a demon emperor!

He was startled for a moment, then quickly relaxed when he remembered Despicable Donkey was with him.

If a black donkey could be enlightened, why not a turtle!

Right as the turtle emperor reached the summit, a hoarse voice sounded. The speaker grumbled endlessly. "You motherless brat, I am the one carrying you, why are your balls tired! Enough, it's your turn to carry me!"

"Come on, old turtle. There are only a few steps left. There are so many people watching, give me a little face!"

The youth riding the turtle patted the old turtle's head and grinned.

"Get down!"

The old turtle flipped over and threw the youth off. It then rudely climbed onto the youth's back. Judging by its size and the weight of its shell, it was as heavy as three or four grown men. However that seemingly frail youth lifted it effortlessly and strode toward the summit. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

He walked and cursed at the same time. "You damned turtle. One day I will cook you into turtle soup!"

The old turtle immediately stretched out its head and bit his ear. "You are the turtle. Your whole family is turtles. I am a divine turtle. Divine turtle!"

"Ugh, why does that sound so familiar."

Ling Feng touched his nose. Everything became clear in an instant. That old turtle and Despicable Donkey were cut from the exact same cloth!

Before the crowd could react, the youth who had been riding the turtle was now carrying the turtle. He strode forward with big steps, nodding to people left and right as if he were the long-awaited protagonist finally arriving.

"Hey, my friend, how are you?"

"This young lady, I can see noble energy between your brows. It is a pity your five elements lack wood. My name is Lin Mu, 'Lin' for wood, 'Mu' for water. Water and Wood nourish each other, perhaps we can find an opportunity to have a deep and meaningful conversation!"

"Wow, that brother over there. At your age you still come to fight over treasures. Life is a struggle, I admire your spirit!"

"..."

He kept talking without pause. The crowd's lips twitched again and again. A good-looking youth had tragically turned out to be a chatterbox.

Lan Yuhuang could only sigh at such a weirdo. "This man is carrying an old turtle yet walks as if it weighs nothing. What kind of person is he?"

Lin Mu must have had ears as sharp as the wind. The moment he heard Lan Yuhuang mention him, he dashed over with a shameless grin. He threw the old turtle to the ground and smiled at her. "Beautiful fairy, I am not some random guy. My name is Lin Mu, Lin from Lin Mu, Mu from Lin Mu. I may look handsome but I am very pure, pure as a little white flower. If you do not believe me, feel my heart. From the moment I saw you, it started beating only for you!"

"..."

Lan Yuhuang's forehead was filled with black lines. This man clearly had no shame at all.

"Lin Mu..."

Suddenly Lan Yuhuang's eyelids twitched. Something came to mind. She blurted out, "Are you the inner sect genius of the Dongling Immortal Pool, Lin Mu?"
