Chapter 862: Fishing the Chaos Divine Turtle

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

On his way down from the precipice, fire burnt progressively strongly around him, turning him into a sun that was shining brighter and brighter.

Wong—

Zhong Yue grew larger like an expanding sun as more divine fire was gradually attracted to him, causing him to expand bigger and bigger exponentially.

An unbearable heat seeped through his defense and scorched his skin, even with him in the Innate Golden Crow, it was still too hot for him to endure.

Finally, when Zhong Yue had fallen to just above the waters, the fishline also reached its limit, so was the expansion of the sun he formed. Beneath him was the surging fire waters that pounced higher waves after waves on the rocks terrifyingly.

Even I cannot hold much longer in the extreme conditions like this, let’s hope I can bait a Chaos Divine Turtle.

Zhong Yue surged his arcane energy and fluttered his wings, from above on the platform, the sun he was contained in slowly drifted toward the giant Chaos Divine Turtle in the vast fire ocean.

In this vast fire ocean were suns that rose from beneath. These were the suns that were created from within the Chaos, new stars that would be added to the ancient universe.

This fire ocean was the connection between the ancient universe and the Chaos. And the very fact that suns were still being created by the Chaos and added into the ancient universe proved that the ancient universe was still full of vigor.

The day that the Chaos stopped producing any new stars, suns, or planets into the ancient universe was the day that the universe entered heat death. In time, the astronomical bodies would cease to shine one after another and the ancient universe would slowly wither, until finally, when the last star loses its everlasting brilliance, the ancient universe would reach its ultimate end.

But thankfully, this had yet to happen and the Chaos was still producing suns out from the fire ocean.

Violent distortions of the surrounding space accompanied every birth of a sun. Every single sun contained immense mass in them that could heavily disrupt the balance of space around it and bring about a trail of space whirl behind it, and these space whirls were deadly to Zhong Yue!

The space whirls possessed attractions strong enough to suck Zhong Yue into it while the distortion of space in the swirls could easily shatter him into bits.

Furthermore, he couldn’t bear the heat and stay for too long; thus, he had to carefully maneuver himself around from the space swirls.

He winged and dragged the sun toward the gigantic Chaos Divine Turtle who had the drawing inscribed on its shell. However, the sun was really heavy and to drag it along with him was still quite difficult for a Heavenly Deity like him.

Whereas the gigantic Chaos Divine Turtle was centered by the many other Chaos Divine Turtles, they were fooling in the midst of fire waters while snacking on the suns.

At this moment, the Jinwu Deity Emperors have already reached to the sides of the Chaos Divine Turtles, they flew around the turtles hoping they could draw the Chaos Divine Turtles’ attentions to them.

Only when Zhong Yue dragged the sun toward the sides of the gigantic Chaos Divine Turtle did he realize how big it was. Its head was bigger than the sun he has formed, its shell had countless meandering mountain ridges on it that resembled the natural totem patterns of Chaos.

If he placed the sun on the Chaos Divine Turtle’s shell, it would just be like a little pearl ornamented on its shell!

Xin Huo looked out through Zhong Yue’s eyes and shook his head, “No wonder these Jinwu Golden Crows can’t bait any Chaos Divine Turtles to them. The suns they formed weren’t authentic enough, the Chaos Divine Turtles were easily able to see through it. Surely enough, they won’t be bothered to chase after the Jinwu Golden Crows. In comparison, cultivation techniques of the Fire Order Era’s Sui Sovereigns were all the quintessences of fire and suns!”

As he heard Xin Huo’s comment, Zhong Yue immediately visualized the Flame Order Palace and Sui Sovereign. Almost immediately, he could feel that the heat brimming higher and more intensely in the sun he formed but miraculously, he felt relatively more comfortable now than before.

Furthermore, there were the sun spirits, solar storms, fiery dragons and phoenixes, the Sui Tree, Golden Crows, and many other heteromorphisms that could be seen in the real suns happening in his sun.

It was at this moment that a few Chaos Divine Turtle were attracted to him, one of them slowly turned its head around and gnawed down at him!

Its mouth was as amazing as a black hole, there was no light that could be seen in it.

“Who is it? Praise the Heavens, the Chaos Divine Turtle is baited!”

Around Zhong Yue, the Jinwu Deity Emperors were shocked and overjoyed, the Chaos Divine Turtles have never been seen fazing to their baits, but now, there was one that was gnawing down at their bait. This was a good news to the whole of Jinwu Clan!

However, little did they know that the bait wasn’t one of them, else, they wouldn’t have been this excited anymore.

But in the next moment, the few Jinwu Deity Emperors around Zhong Yue nearly spurt out a mouthful of blood when they saw the sun containing Zhong Yue in it slip away and escape from the Chaos Divine Turtle’s mouth!

It escaped!

The few Jinwu Deity Emperors eyes were bulging out to see the bait running away from the Chaos Divine Turtle!

They had been acting as bait, risking their lives to lure the Chaos Divine Turtles and yet, not a single Chaos Divine Turtle seemed to raise any interest in them before, not even in the past few tens of thousand years. Now there was one fortunate incident of success, this damn ‘Jinwu clansmen’ dared to run away from it!

Other than that, it was also clear that the other Chaos Divine Turtles were also interested in this escaped ‘sun’. They had also opened their mouths and gnawed down at the sun formed by Zhong Yue.

This frustrated the Jinwu Deity Emperors even more when they saw their ‘clansman’ dragging his sun around escaping from the Chaos Divine Turtles!

Seeing him, the Deity Emperors nearly lost control of themselves to rush over to stun him on the spot!

How dare he!

Finally, the Chaos Divine Turtle in the center raised its gigantic head, and its mouth opened slowly and gnawed down at Zhong Yue.

If this brat dares to run again, we’ll find him and batter him to death ! The Jinwu Deity Emperors thought and were even more anxious than Zhong Yue himself.

But soon, they heaved a breath of relief together as Zhong Yue stopped running and waited for the ancient Chaos Divine Turtle to eat it down.

At the same time, on the Turtle Fishing Platform, Mu Suge felt the fishing rod sinking down in his hands and was overjoyed, he shouted, “Caught!”

Jin Chufei was shocked and overjoyed, he quickly shouted, “Ancestors, a Chaos Divine Turtle has taken the bait!”

The few Jinwu Imperial Emperors immediately placed their fishing rods on the ground and rushed over, causing the Jinwu Deity Emperors on the other end of the fishing rods to nearly fall into the fire ocean. Fortunately, they quickly fluttered their wings and dispersed the suns around them, then flying back toward the Turtle Fishing Platform.

On the other hand, Mu Suge was holding on the fishing rod, he could feel the immense strength coming from the other end that was pulling him toward the edge of the platform and down to the fire ocean. Even when he was a peak Creator, its strength was still far too overwhelming for him to resist.

The few Imperial Emperors quickly rushed to his side, they placed their hands on the rod and surged their arcane energy, working together to pull the fishing rod back up!

Just how powerful was the Imperial Emperor’s sheer strength and arcane energy, yet, with a few of them working together, they still couldn’t overcome the pulling force of the fishing rod. As a result, even the Imperial Emperors were slowly getting dragged toward the edge of the Turtle Fishing Platform.

Yao Xingyue, Ji Yunfei, and the others were stunned with their mouths agape. This Chaos Divine Turtle’s strength was unimaginable to them, it was so terrifying that even seven Imperial Emperors in addition to a peak Creator couldn’t stop it from slowly pulling them into the fire ocean!

“Is Senior Martial Brother Yi still alive?” Mo Haozun murmured.

Yao Xingyue and the others quietly shook their head. Even seven Imperial Emperors in addition to a peak Creator couldn’t hold it off, how could it be possible for Zhong Yue, who was bitten down by it, to still be alive?

“It’s the Chaos Divine Turtle with the drawing! Only this ancient Chaos Divine Turtle can have such strength!”

The Imperial Emperors were shocked and overjoyed, one of the elder ones shouted, “Cast the Heavens, quickly!”

Wong—

Wong, wong—

From their Yuan Shen secret realms, there were lights that shone brightly as the Heavens were cast out by them, one each, totaling up to seven Heavens. As the Heavens were cast out and surged their powers into the Imperial Emperors, their arcane energies were greatly boosted and their strengths skyrocketed!

Mu Suge couldn’t stand beside them anymore and was shot out of the circle of the Imperial Emperors. He flipped in the air and returned back to the Turtle Fishing Platform. His face changed drastically as he thought, Can Mister Yi make it out…

But even the seven Imperial Emperors had to borrow the Heavens’ powers to contend with the Chaos Divine Turtle, Zhong Yue, who was swallowed by it, would most probably be dead already.

The Imperial Emperors gave a stern yell and has finally stopped themselves from getting pulled away. Then, they tried to lean back and retrieve the fishline.

The whole of Jinwu Clan plunged into joy, countless clansmen flew over and in just a short while, over a million of them filled the land and sky, watching closely as their ancestors trying to fish up the Chaos Divine Turtle.

“Finally, the Chaos Divine Turtle!”

“It’s the one with the drawing on its shell!”

“Is this the omen to the rise of our Jinwu Clan?”

…

But before another million of Jinwu clansmen arrive at the scene, they heard a sudden loud crack.

Pak——

The seven Imperial Emperors fell and tumbled over a bit before falling off of the Turtle Fishing Platform.

All of the Jinwu clansmen were stunned as they watched in shock at the broken fishline slowly sinking into the fire ocean.

One of the Imperial Emperors suddenly turned into the Golden Crow form and rushed down, grabbing onto the fishline and flying back to the Fusang Divine Tree. He tried to tie the fishline on the divine tree, thinking that that would stop the Chaos Divine Turtle from leaving.

But just before he could reach the Fusang Divine Tree, the Chaos Divine Turtle dove into the fire ocean, nearly pulling the Imperial Emperor down as well. Quickly, the Imperial Emperor let go of the fishline.

The over million Jinwu experts felt the urge to cry but there were no tears in their eyes. They watched helplessly as the rest of the Chaos Divine Turtles dove into the fire ocean.

The fishline also disappeared into the fire ocean.

“Senior Martial Brother Yi Feng…” Jin Chufei and the others were in shellshock.

Mu Suge was also the same as he stood unmovingly while thinking, Mister Yi… is dead…

On the Turtle Fishing Platform, an atmosphere of sadness blanketed over everyone. The Jinwu Clan lamented the missed opportunity of catching a Chaos Divine Turtle while Yao Xingyue and the experts crying over the death of the Yi Clan’s Heavenly Deity.

But the one who was feeling the most regret was Xian Tian Palace’s third prince, Mu Suge. His biggest trump card to the ancient universe was the smart and wise Mister Yi, but with Mister Yi now dead, it was now an uncertainty if he could still survive and return to the Zi Wei Galaxy.

Mister Yi, how can you leave me alone just like this … Mu Suge was anxious as he thought.

Beneath in the fire ocean, all of the Chaos Divine Turtles were nowhere to be seen. It was most likely that they’d returned to the Chaos, and whether or not they would return again was an uncertainty.

“This is… I am inside of the Chaos Divine Turtle’s stomach?” Zhong Yue opened his eyes and looked around to see nothing but only darkness.

Suddenly, there were lights that appeared in the darkness, two balls of light that grew bigger and brighter, eventually turning into a pair of eyes that stared at him.

Suddenly, he heard a voice, “Zhong Yue of the Zhong Shan Clan, Long Yue the Monster King, Bo Xun the Demon King, the innate god Yi Feng, the Yi Clan, Fuxi Clan’s Di Yue, Tai Sovereign…”

“Who are you!?” Zhong Yue shouted.
