“Creatures of Chaos? Foresee the future? Are there really creatures of sort?” Yao Xingyue murmured in question.

The experts were shocked, they looked down at the fire water, the rising suns, and the Chaos Divine Turtles swimming happily in the water.

The creatures of Chaos were extremely strong, able to casually swim in the fires that could even reduce Imperial Emperors into ashes.

Zhong Yue was also puzzled, he doubted if there really were creatures of Chaos that could foresee the future. Could creatures like that really exist?

“Xin Huo, you’ve heard of the Chaos Divine Turtles?” Zhong Yue asked.

Although there were many Creators around them, Zhong Yue was not the same as his old self anymore. He was now able to conceal the fluctuations in his psyche ocean and Yuan Shen secret realms. Thus, he didn’t need to worry about the Creators seeing through him and expose the hidden Xin Huo in his body.

But of course, the same couldn’t be said for Imperial Emperors as they could still pick up the such fluctuations when he and Xin Huo conversed.

Xin Huo nodded, “Yes, not only have I heard of them, but I’ve seen them with my eyes too. The first Sui Sovereign once fished up a Chaos Divine Turtle himself, he inscribed something on the Chaos Divine Turtle’s shell and in return, the Chaos Divine Turtle told him the future it saw.”

“Can the Chaos Divine Turtles really foresee the future?” Zhong Yue was shocked, “Is the Chaos Divine Turtle’s prophecy accurate?”

Xin Huo said, “The Sui Sovereign’s question was the lasting reigns for the Heavenly Monarchs of Great Sui’s Yanzi Clan; The Chaos Divine Turtle told the Sui Sovereign that he saw the Great Mountain Fu Wood Solar Calendar embraced 32 reigns before it ended.”

“Great Sun Mountain Fu Solar Calendar?” Zhong Yue was puzzled.

“It’s the name for the Fire Order Era’s calendar, the Fu Wood is the Fusang Divine Tree in the Jinwu Clan’s sacred land, the Valley of Tang. The calendar Great Sui’s Yanzi Clan used was inscribed on the Fusang Divine Tree.”

Xin Huo explained, “Whereas the Great Sun is this saint mountain that we now stand on. It is also known as the Fu Mountain.”

Zhong Yue raised his head and looked up at the Fusang Divine Tree, he wondered if the Fire Order Era’s calendar could still be found on the divine tree’s trunk?

The ancient Yanzi Clan recorded their time here on the mountain, ancient gods that inscribed the marvelousness of universe on this divine tree. They, the Nazi Clan, was the ancestors to the Fuxi Clan.

“What happened after?” Zhong Yue asked.

“Then…” Xin Huo turned dejected as he continued, “The Fire Order Era embraced 32 reigns of Heavenly Monarchs and the Great Sun Fu Wood Solar Calendar recorded 32 reigns…”

Zhong Yue was silent as Xin Huo said, “The Sui Sovereign left a drawing on the Chaos Divine Turtle’s shell before he released it back into the fire ocean.”

“A drawing?”

Xin Huo nodded, “The Sui Sovereign said it’s the Drawing of the Heavenly Daos and beside it was carved the Nazi Clan’s legendary emblem. The Drawing of the Heavenly Daos recorded 32 Heavenly Daos that he had explored, but I cannot understand any one of them nor can I impart it down to the juniors. Thus, he left it on the Chaos Divine Turtle’s shell, hoping that there would be juniors that will find it to comprehend themselves.”

“Drawing of Heavenly Daos?” Zhong Yue was stunned, 30 Heavenly Daos Sui Sovereign has found?

Unfortunately, as time passed, two million years flashed by since the reign of the first Sui Sovereign, that Chaos Divine Turtle is most probably dead by now already . Zhong Yue lamented in his heart.

“Brother Chufei, how does the Jinwu Clan fish the Chaos Divine Turtles?” Yao Xingyue suddenly asked.

Mo Haozun, Fan Bozhu, and the others were also curious. The Chaos Divine Turtles were gigantic size. To be able to eat suns like snacks, they would be unimaginably strong. Ordinary bait would most probably not even pique their interest at all. It was hard to imagine how the Jinwu Clan intended to fish out these creatures of Chaos.

“Look at that side of the Turtle Fishing Platform.” Jin Chufei laughed happily as he pointed his finger to a corner of the Turtle Fishing Platform.

The Turtle Fishing Platform was huge, there were many totem pillars and stone tablets that were raised across the platform. These structures were carved full with totem patterns and some were pictures formed by the words of the godly language.

The moved around a few of the totem pillars and stone tablets, and saw an old man with golden hair, sunken eyes, and golden hair sitting on the side of the huge platform, fishing the Chaos Divine Turtles.

The golden hair old man who was most probably a senior in the Jinwu Clan was incredibly strong, even Mu Suge uncontrollably strained his heart and conducted his voice to Zhong Yue and said, “That old man is a Jinwu Imperial Emperor!”

Zhong Yue was shocked, he glanced around and saw a few other Jinwu seniors sitting by the edge of the Turtle Fishing Platform. Some were so old looking as if they were going to die in the next second and some were young like teenagers, but those holding a fishing rod in their hands were all Imperial Emperors. Even the young ones were no younger than 10,000 years old.

The Jinwu Clan was, after all, an ancient universe’s monarch race blessed with an innate sacred land. Over time, their powerbase had quietly grown to immeasurable heights; they were definitely stronger than some of the Zi Wei Galaxy’s monarch races.

“The seniors here are all fishing, hoping that a Chaos Divine Turtle can tell us the future we wish to know.” Jin Chufei said and sighed, “However, for tens of thousand years, no Chaos Divine Turtles have been fished. Beneath the fire ocean is the world of Chaos, linked to the Chaos itself, and the divine fire in the ocean comes directly from it. Even Imperial Emperors cannot survive down beneath or they’d die in the Chaos.”

The Jinwu seniors were extremely strong, the fishing rods would not flinch even by the slightest in their hands. They had been sitting by the edge for an unknown amount of time, all of them just waiting to snag a Chaos Divine Turtle.

Yao Xingyue, Fan Bozhu, and the others were still puzzled, while Zhong Yue asked, “Brother Chufei, what bait is used by the seniors?”

As he asked, an old man has raised his fishing rod and rolled back the fishline. The fishline was a billion miles long and was forged from materials unknown to them, thin as a strand of hair but its durability was unparalleled.

The old man took a long time to roll back all of the fishline, to which at the end of it was a Jinwu Clan’s Deity Emperor. The Deity Emperor lowered his head and apologized in embarrassment, “Ancestor, the fire is too strong down there, I cannot hold any longer.”

The Jinwu Clan elder nodded, he said slowly, “Change the bait.”

A three-taloned Golden Crow Deity Emperor fluttered its wing and landed beside the fishing rod. As he landed, he turned into a brawny man with wings behind him, he bowed respectfully and tied the fishline on his waist. He said, “Ancestor, I am ready!”

The Jinwu elder nodded, he lowered the brawny Deity Emperor down to the precipice, moving him closer and closer to the fire waters.

Zhong Yue and the others looked down from the edge of the Turtle Fishing Platform, they saw the Jinwu Deity Emperor turning into a three-taloned Golden Crow and sucked the burning flames into his mouth while the divine fire burnt around him, making him to look like a sun that was hovering above the fire waters.

The billion miles of fishline was extended to its longest, the old man sat by the edge holding the fishing rod in his pair of steady hands; whereas the Jinwu Deity Emperor was disguised as a sun, winging above the fire waves and attracted the Chaos Divine Turtles’ attentions.

Yao Xingyue and the rest were stunned, shocked by the fact that the Jinwu Clan used their Deity Emperors as bait to fish the Chaos Divine Turtles. Weren’t they afraid of getting eaten by the Chaos Divine Turtles instead?

“Don’t worry, the Chaos Divine Turtles won’t really eat the martial uncles and aunties.” Jin Chufei samiled, “The Chaos Divine Turtles are good tempered, if it’s the bait that they’ve eaten, they will quietly let themselves be fished up. The creatures of Chaos are somewhat lacking in sentience, as long as you threw out a question, they will definitely answer. In the worst case, if a Deity Emperor’s death can be exchanged with a glimpse to the future, it’s more than worthy.”

“Death is nothing to know the mysteries of this universe.” The experts said.

All of a sudden, there were few Jinwu elders that were abruptly agitated, they raised their voice and said, “Here it comes! Here it comes! That Chaos Divine Turtle is here!”

“Quick, be vigilant! It’s been a few ten of thousand years we’ve been waiting for it, it’s finally here! We must fish it up this time!”

“Move the bait!”

…

The fishing elders were bestirred from their usual stoning condition and shocked Zhong Yue and the others. They looked toward the ocean and saw the waves surging violently as an incredibly huge Chaos Divine Turtle surfacing from the ocean, swimming toward the precipice.

This Chaos Divine Turtle was much bigger than the rest, it was accompanied by some tens of other Chaos Divine Turtles like guardians that were protecting their king.

“We must fish it this time, or another dozen thousand years we will have to wait!” The fishers said anxiously.

Zhong Yue and the experts were puzzled, they asked, “What’s the difference between this Chaos Divine Turtle and the rest of its kind?”

Jin Chufei was also overjoyed by the gigantic Chaos Divine Turtle’s appearance, he quickly answered, “It is much different! There is a drawing on this Chaos Divine Turtle’s shell. The Jinwu grand ancestor once saw the drawing from afar and found it to be extremely abstruse and profound. But he was unable to attain it fully as it was too far away. However even so, the Jinwu Clan still evolved many strong and powerful techniques from a glimpse on it. Thus, the Jinwu elders were mainly here to catch this Chaos Divine Turtle! I didn’t think it’d come out again today!”

“Drawing…?” Zhong Yue was shocked. He quickly looked down and surely enough, he saw the ancient drawing that had been inscribed on the Chaos Divine Turtle’s shell. However, it was too far for him to take a clearer look.

The Fuxi Clan and Jinwu Clan were both proficient in the arts of divine eyes, with the Jinwu Clan being more well known for its sharp eyes. But even the Jinwu Clan’s Imperial Emperors and even its grand ancestor could not clearly see the drawing, let alone Zhong Yue.

“Brat Yue, this is the same Chaos Divine Turtle!” Xin Huo was also agitated and he shouted excitedly, “This is the Chaos Divine Turtle fished out by Sui Sovereign! The drawing on its shell is Sui Sovereign’s Drawing of Heavenly Daos!”

As he spoke, the faint and feeble fluctuations of his psyche was picked up by the Jinwu fishers, they turned around and looked at Zhong Yue.

Zhong Yue’s heart thumped and he quickly sealed all of his senses almost immediately. Right after, wave after wave of psyche billowed over him.

The Jinwu elders failed to find anything and eventually ignored it, returning to their psyche and concentrating on their fishing.

Zhong Yue heaved a breath of relief and Xin Huo didn’t dare to speak anymore, he kept quiet for the rest of the time.

“Brother Chufei, there is an extra fishing rod there, can we also try?” Yao Xingyue said excitedly and smiled, “We might be able to fish up a Chaos Divine Turtle!”

Jin Chufei was shocked, he quickly laughed back, “Hang and use me as bait? You must be joking! I’d be dead within half an hour if you lowered me down there!”

“I’ll be the bait.” Zhong Yue suddenly said.

Jin Chufei and the others were shocked, while Zhong Yue continued, “I too can turn into an Innate Golden Crow and disguise myself as a sun. Brother Xingyue is right, it is better if there is another fishing rod, there is a higher chance to fish up the Chaos Divine Turtle and you never know, we might just be able to do it!”

Jin Chufei quickly answered, “Brother Yi, it is extremely dangerous down there. Although you are strong, you can only an hour down there!”

Zhong Yue walked toward the extra fishing rod and tied the fishline on his waist, he smiled, “Then, just bring me back after an hour. Servant Su, you will handle the fishing rod!”

Mu Suge quickly moved forward and held the fishing rod in his hands while Zhong Yue leaped down from the platform. He turned into a three-taloned Golden Crow and flew toward the connection point of the fire ocean and fire river.
