Chapter 659: Showing Courtesy
The island that Yang Chen and the girls saw was a huge black turtle, no matter what kind of island it was. The shell on the back of the black tortoise alone has a radius of thousands of miles, and the manor of hundreds of miles only occupies less than a quarter of the back area of the black tortoise.
The manor was all in the hemispherical shield, and there were no shields to cover other places, so they all look like a wet seabed, covered with various sea creatures. Often playing on the bottom of the sea, Yang Chen was very clear about the situation on the bottom of the sea. Looking at it like this, it seems that the black turtle has lived on the bottom of the sea for a long time.
The huge black tortoise opened its teeth and claws, as if it wanted to break free from some restraint, but it was always bound by some unknown force and could not escape. Looking at the situation, how could Yang Chen and the girls not understand that this mysterious turtle must be controlled by the masters of the Zhao family.
Even if you often see some large monsters, even She Kui Xiesha, a wild monster who cultivated naturally, was only a few thousand feet in size.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSure enough, it is because of the creatures in the sea. Because of the buoyancy of sea water, it does not need to bear its huge weight, so its size can grow to a jaw-dropping level.
It seems that the black tortoise cultivation base was not low, but it was restricted within a certain realm and cannot be freed. Yang Chen only took a few glances to understand that the cultivation base of the mysterious tortoise was converted into a spiritual vein by a huge formation engraved on the back of the turtle, and then used for the cultivation of the whole manor.
This kind of act of forcibly snatching the cultivation base of other monster clans, if the masters of the monster clan saw it, it will be outrageous. However, Yang Chen didn’t have a sense of justice to the point where he wanted to seek justice for a black turtle, so he just turned a blind eye to it.
The huge hemispherical shield with a radius of hundreds of miles, in addition to protecting the manor from the intrusion of sea water, seems to have the function of isolating the spiritual awareness. In this way, many things can be explained.
No wonder Yang Chen didn’t find any habitable islands thousands of miles away. It turns out that the Zhao family has been hiding in the seabed. No matter how vigilant Yang Chen is, he will not always explore every inch of the seabed. The other party used formations to isolate the spiritual awareness, and Yang Chen’s spiritual awareness explored, but it was only a seabed, how could he find any abnormalities?
This also explains why the Zhao family is so generous, but none of the idle cultivators know where the Zhao family is. As long as the tortoise is still alive, they can change places all the time, and it’s normal if they can’t find it.
“The Zhao family lives on the back of this black tortoise, we have been cruising on the bottom of the sea all day.” Zhao Chengtian’s words reached the ears of Yang Chen and the girls from the side, with indescribable satisfaction in his tone “Today, the patriarch specially asked the mysterious turtle to float to the surface of the sea to welcome you, this is the first time in thousands of years this has happened.”
Anyway, what Zhao Chengtian said really made Yang Chen look good. Since the other party gave face, Yang Chen didn’t take it too seriously, and followed Zhao Chengtian outside the gate of the manor as if flattered.
The protective shield seems to only have the function of isolating the sea water. When Yang Chen and others landed and passed through, there was no obstacle at all. Of course, neither Yang Chen nor the girls were rookies who had never seen the world, so they wouldn’t be so naive as to really believe that this shield would have no protective ability.
The Zhao family really put on a big scene this time, the middle door was wide open, and thousands of Zhao family’s members lined up to greet them from the gate, and the team lined up all the way to the reception hall of the Zhao family. The Patriarch of the Zhao family and another alchemy master who had been in the Pure Yang Palace last time stood at the gate to welcome them, giving them enough face.
Yang Chen was polite all the way. Under the leadership of the Patriarch of the Zhao family, he followed the welcoming team lined up by the Zhao family and arrived at the huge reception hall, leaving only a few Dacheng stage elders to accompany him. The welcoming team dispersed.
Along the way, Yang Chen saw thousands of Jiedan stage cultivators, thousands of Yuanying stage masters, and nearly a hundred Dacheng stage masters. The closer to the hall, the higher the cultivation base of the people lining up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust the number of these cultivators were enough to make the seven girls behind Yang Chen afraid. Even if it was their respective sects, the Dacheng stage masters outside will not be half of this number. Most of the masters are in a state of seclusion and retreat, and they will not easily let outsiders know.
Those who dare to show up have such strength, and one can imagine how many are hidden. Masters like the supreme elders are not limited to the five major sects. Among these families that can last for hundreds of thousands of years or even longer, which one does not have a few backers?
The Zhao family showed such a sight when Yang Chen and the girls visited for the first time, and they were not afraid that the seven girls from the three major sects would know that if there was nothing wrong with it, then they really had seen a ghost up. The performance seemed to give Yang Chen enough face, but in fact there was a sense of threat. Even if Yang Chen wanted to have other thoughts, he had to make a new plan at this moment.
Originally, the posture at the beginning made seven girls secretly careful, but now she dare not be careless. Before the other party revealed their final purpose, the seven girls put on a posture of marrying a chicken and following the chicken, marrying a dog and following the dog, and followed Yang Chen, extremely obedient, and didn’t even make a sound when Yang Chen was talking to the Patriarch of the Zhao family.
What Yang Chen saw was more than the seven girls. Among the masters lined up to welcome them, many of them were haunted by demonic qi, obviously they had experienced training in the Demon Continent. If Yang Chen’s predictions were correct, the Zhao family obviously wanted to know how Yang Chen dealt with the demonic qi.
“Grandmaster Yang, you have also cultivated in the Demon Continent. There are some things I would like to ask for advice with.” After the Patriarch of the Zhao family was polite with Yang Chen, an elder who had just been introduced immediately asked Yang Chen straight to the point.
“Wait!” Yang Chen didn’t wait for the other party to say the follow-up words, and directly reached out to stop the other party.
Yang Chen’s actions baffled several members of the Zhao family, and two impatient elders even showed a little angry expression.
“I’ve been on the road for the past few days. My wives have cultivated the formation for many days, and they are a little tired. Seniors, can I arrange for them to take a break first?” Yang Chen said politely, and then added “My wives and the others have never been to the Demon Continent for training, so they probably won’t be interested in what we have to say.”
The remaining elders all have a little bit of demonic qi, and they must have been to the Demon Continent to cultivate. Hearing Yang Chen say this, he immediately understood that when they left the Demon Continent, they must have sworn a heart demon vow. If it was revealed to outsiders, it would be a big problem.
