Lin Xun took the opportunity to throw a few questions at the azure turtle, and he answered them one by one.

It turned out that the water territory was indeed the Spirit Burial Sea, which was tens of thousands of miles away from the land of the Ziyao Empire.

According to the azure turtle, very few cultivators had been able to reach the Spirit Burial Sea in the past thousand years.

The water territory was too far and the journey there was full of dangers. Even Heaven Ascension cultivators would be unlikely to survive the journey.

This fact had a huge impact on Lin Xun. He was risking his life trying to get to the Forbidden City.

Who would have thought that he would suddenly be transported to an unfamiliar sea territory tens of thousands of miles away from the Ziyao Empire?

According to the azure turtle, it would take him at least three to five months to return to the Ziyao Empire without taking into account the dangers he would encounter on the way!

“By the way—”

The azure turtle said suddenly, “You’re so weak, and a jade demon shark can easily tear you apart. How did you get here?”

Lin Xun sighed and recounted his experience and encounters. He didn’t hide anything from the azure turtle.

To his surprise, the azure turtle exclaimed in excitement, “Space vortex! Kid, you entered a space vortex! Heavens, but you’re still alive! Miracle! It’s a miracle!”

Lin Xun almost rolled his eyes. Is it a miracle to still be alive?

“Elder, what’s this space vortex thing?” asked Lin Xun.

The azure turtle didn’t answer him, and instead stared at him with fervent eyes. “Kid, I believe you have a treasure on you that can avoid the turbulent flow of space, am I right?”

The azure turtle was so excited that he almost danced around. “I’m saved. I’m finally saved. I have been trapped in this damn sea for eight hundred years. My savior has finally come! Hahahaha…”

Lin Xun was dumbfounded as he stared at the azure turtle. This guy calls himself the Azure Turtle King and says he is worshiped by many underwater spirits and demons, but it turns out that he is trapped here.

Suddenly, Lin Xun felt worried. Could the turtle just be bluffing? If he’s so powerful why would he be trapped in this sea territory?

How funny!?

Who has ever seen an azure turtle, a legendary heaven-grade rune beast, that can control the wind, waves, clouds, and mist, trapped in its own sea?

As though he sensed the change in Lin Xun’s gaze, the azure turtle suddenly stopped laughing. He cleared his throat with a cough and explained, “Junior, don’t overthink. Although I have great powers, there are still some powers that I can’t compete with in this world.”

He assumed a solemn expression as he continued, “This sea territory is extremely special in that it is an ancient ruin. It is shrouded in a mysterious, ancient divine power. Even cultivators of the Life Death Stage wouldn’t be able to leave, let alone me.”

Lin Xun’s heart trembled. Ancient ruins!?

He had never imagined that even Life Death Stage Kings wouldn’t be able to escape. What sort of frightening power could trap such strong cultivators in this sea territory?

Even if it’s historical ruins, it’s unbelievable that the divine power is still so tyrannical after so many years have passed.

“Luckily, you came!”

Suddenly, the azure turtle lit up with excitement again. His eyes blazed with boundless hope and desire as he gazed at Lin Xun. It was as though he was a peerless treasure of the world. “This is fate. It proves that it is not my time to die yet!”

Lin Xun smiled bitterly. “Elder, don’t be so happy yet. I still don’t know how to get us out of here!”

“It’s very simple. You have a treasure that can teleport through the space vortex so you can easily take me and leave!”

He cast his gaze to the distance of the sea territory. “The exit is right there. I didn’t dare to go near it in the past, but it’s different now.”

Realization flashed across Lin Xun’s mind. The so-called treasure that the azure turtle spoke of must be the Heavenly Water Sacred Bead in my mind-sea!

However, it never crossed Lin Xun’s mind that the treasure could travel through the space vortex.

Seeing Lin Xun’s hesitation, the azure turtle rolled his eyes. Then, as though he had understood something, he smiled and pointed to the silver plants nearby. “Junior, look, those are silver frost sword grass, a rare treasure that only existed in ancient times. It is a top-grade divine medicinal plant in the world!”

Lin Xun’s eyes lit up.

The azure turtle said proudly, “Since it’s a divine medicinal plant, it naturally has unbelievable effects. It can bring a dead person back to life even if they are just bones. It can temper a cultivator’s body, solidify their foundation, and improve their cultivation! If the plants somehow made their way to the outside world, even the Life Death Stage Kings would fight over them!”

“It’s that amazing?” Lin Xun exclaimed.

“I’m not talking nonsense. If it wasn’t for them, how would I be trapped here?” the azure turtle said indifferently,

Lin Xun asked suspiciously, “Then...why don’t you consume them?”

“Junior, you underestimate me too much. I have already consumed no fewer than one hundred Silver Frost Sword Grass during the years I have been trapped here. My cultivation has reached its limit. Those things are no longer of any use to me.” His voice was calm and detached like he was above all mundane things.

Then, he sighed emotionally. “The world regards it as a treasure but to me it is tasteless. It’s a pity. When you, like me, reach the supreme state of cultivation, the realm of boundless life and death, and are guided by only the great Dao, you will understand how I feel.”

Lin Xun simply ignored his boasting and concluded that the azure turtle had consumed too many divine medicinal plants and was tired of them so he led him to them.

“Junior, it’s fate that we met. Treat these as my gift to you,” the azure turtle said leisurely.

“Then I must thank Elder for your kindness.” Lin Xun smiled.

Regardless of how the azure turtle boasted, he was certain that the silver frost sword grass was a top treasure in the world.

“Wait a moment. It’s not easy to preserve those plants. If you touch them like that, they will die and burst into flames. Also, if you don’t take care of them well, they will immediately vanish into nothing,” the azure turtle explained to Lin Xun. Then, he spat out a mouthful of saliva, and it turned into a giant net that completely covered the stretch of silver frost sword grass.

Immediately, under Lin Xun’s perplexed gaze, the silver frost sword grass was uprooted and enveloped in a bubble-like azure light.

”Junior, this is a little token from me. Please accept it. The silver frost sword grass can be perfectly preserved with my power.”

The azure turtle said proudly, “When you want to use them, you only need a little aeth power to take them out from the light bubble.”

“Thank you, Elder!”

Lin Xun unhesitatingly opened the Xumi Ring and stored the dozens of silver frost sword grass in it.

”Hahaha, junior, now can you let me leave with you?” asked the azure turtle with a smile

Lin Xun contemplated for a moment and grinned. “Elder, since you’re so sure that I can help you leave then we should be able to leave at any time. But it’s very rare to see such ancient ruins. Wouldn’t it be a pity to leave in such a hurry?”

The azure turtle exclaimed, “I didn’t expect you to have such a huge appetite.”

Lin Xun smiled. “Wouldn’t it be a waste if the treasures in the historical ruins are left behind?”

“To be honest, I have already taken all the treasures on the first level of the ruins that I like, so there isn’t much left. But there is something that might be useful to you.

“Come with me.” The azure turtle disappeared in a flash.

Tempted, Lin Xun quickly followed him. “The first level of the ruins…”

The farther the two traveled, the clearer the seawater. Additionally, an indescribably mysterious force filled the water. Although the force didn’t hinder their movements, it could penetrate their minds and shake their spirit with terrifying, oppressive power.

Even the azure turtle seldom spoke as they moved forward.

They came to a little fiery red tree next to an underwater boulder. Its branches were as tough as swords, and red fruits the size of a thumb were hung all over it like little suns.

“True yang dragon essence fruit. It can open up a person’s intelligence and stimulate their comprehension ability. They are amazing divine fruits, but a cultivator can at most consume one. There’s no use in consuming more.”

With a wave of its flipper, the twenty-four true yang dragon essence fruits were harvested from the tree and tossed over to Lin Xun.”

Lin Xun quickly took out a jade bottle, carefully stored them inside, and sealed it in the Xumi Ring.

They continued forward, but the azure turtle suddenly rushed into the depths of a dense patch of azure plants. When he returned, he was clasping a glistening purple ore the size of a coin.

“This is purple spirit iron. It can be used to forge aeth tools. The rune masters of your human race should like them. I heard that they are very useful in making rune armaments, but they are worthless to me.” The azure turtle tossed it to Lin Xun like it was trash.

Lin Xun’s face glowed with excitement. Violet spirit iron! He knew that even a coin-sized piece was worth a boundless amount of money!

If it was ground to a powder and smelted with other rune materials, it could greatly improve the success rate of forging rune armaments.

The azure turtle searched the sea territory as they moved forward. He was very familiar with the sea territory so it didn’t take him much effort to collect dozens of rare treasures for Lin Xun.

Of course, they were all of little value and use to the azure turtle.

However, they were all rare unique treasures to Lin Xun. They were all simply invaluable!

Lin Xun had fallen into a state of excitement and had forgotten his desire to leave. What could be happier than hunting for treasures in ancient ruins?

He was simply obsessed!
