The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1323: Spirit Turtle Sacred Sanctuary

"Tiance Clan, huh."

Saint Lady Hui Yue furrowed her brow even more deeply. "The Tiance Clan truly possesses extraordinary gifts. They even have divine skills capable of predicting the future. Yet such talent is also a burden. No matter how astonishing their cultivation, it is difficult for them to live past forty."

"Yes..."

Hearing the Moon Goddess mention the calamity that awaited her clan, Tuoba Yan's expression darkened slightly.

"However, now that you are my disciple, I will find a way to extend your life. Even if fate ultimately cannot be changed, a person's life is not measured solely by longevity. Forty years is not short."

Saint Lady Hui Yue, a person who had studied and mastered destiny itself, possessed a serenity and composure far beyond ordinary mortals.

"Your disciple will carefully follow Master's teachings."

"Mm." Saint Lady Hui Yue nodded lightly. "Besides the Tianheng Technique, there seems to be another force within you guiding the Profound Yin energy. The grade of this martial art seems very high. What cultivation method is it?"

"Uh..."

Tuoba Yan clenched her fists slightly. "Master, I promised that senior I would not reveal it."

"You need not trouble yourself. This cultivation method suits you perfectly. There is no need to switch to any other technique."

Saint Lady Hui Yue's expression remained calm and unreadable. She spoke softly. "Very well. Rest early today. The Illusory Moon Divine Hall emphasizes quiet and natural living. During this first year, do not leave the hall casually."

"Uh... yes, Master." Tuoba Yan clenched her teeth and nodded obediently under Saint Lady Hui Yue's gaze.

Saint Lady Hui Yue inhaled deeply, lightly brushed her sleeves, and left the courtyard.

"She is a promising student, yet..."

Saint Lady Hui Yue furrowed her brow. Her thoughts drifted to the young man Tuoba Yan had always looked at with such affection outside the Dongling Immortal Pool. In her heart, she decided, "This person must not meet Yan'er again."

Originally, she had believed that Ling Feng's talent was limited and could never match Tuoba Yan's Profound Yin Physique. That was why she deliberately restricted Tuoba Yan. Over time, perhaps her emotions for him would fade.

...

"Damn it! That sister of mine made me lose face in front of my friends. Hmph! She refuses to accept Brother Ling. I do not believe there is no one willing to take him. I will go find that lecherous old man. If he accepts Brother Ling, let's see what she can say then!"

Lin Mu's anger surged as he returned to the Earth Spirit Hall. Thinking about it made him even more furious. He was supposed to be the infamous troublemaker of the Dongling Immortal Pool, yet he had never been so embarrassed. He had claimed to have everything under control, yet Ling Feng had been assigned to the outer sect.

He had to restore his reputation!

Gritting his teeth and steel in his heart, Lin Mu surged upward with incredible speed toward the azure skies.

The truth was, at the summit of the Dongling Immortal Pool, aside from the eight floating immortal islands, there were also three Great Saint Realms, the residences of the three Half-Saints.

The lecherous old man Lin Mu spoke of lived in the Spirit Turtle Sacred Sanctuary. Many years ago, he had taken a liking to Lin Mu and spent half a year guiding him within the saint sanctuary. Lin Mu's cultivation had advanced rapidly during that time, and he had been considered a successor of the Half-Saint.

In truth, the old man had only guided Lin Mu for six months and had never formally accepted him as a disciple. At most, he was considered a half-disciple.

Within the Dongling Immortal Pool, Elder Gui had guided many people. The barriers Lin Mu created, Saint Lady Bi Luo of the Earth Spirit Hall, and even the current sect leader, the Tian Yuan Sacred Emperor, had all received instruction from Elder Gui.

Elder Gui might not have been the strongest of the three Half-Saints, but he was undoubtedly the eldest and most experienced.

Soon, Lin Mu broke through the barrier and entered the Spirit Turtle Sacred Sanctuary. He immediately shouted, "Elder Gui! Elder Gui! I have come to see you!"

"Rotten wood! Stop in the name of this divine turtle!"

Before the old man appeared, a giant turtle approached. Lin Mu shamelessly stepped forward. "Hehe, isn't this Brother Turtle? I have come to pay my respects to Elder Gui. Could you lead the way?"

"Rotten wood. The old man is not here. Get lost!"

The divine turtle raised its massive head and snorted softly.

"If he is not here, I will wait inside. I will wait no matter what!"

Lin Mu's determination hardened. As long as Elder Gui spoke a word, Ling Feng entering the inner sect would be trivial.

He did not know that it was precisely Elder Gui's single word that had caused Ling Feng to be passed over by the Five Spirit Halls and assigned to the outer sect.

"Do not wait. The old man has gone traveling. It could be as short as a year or as long as ten. If you wish to wait, then wait."

The divine turtle snorted, flicked its tail, and departed, leaving Lin Mu behind.
