God of Fishing - Chapter 2559

2559 Tricked

Perhaps the old turtle really had some special relationship with Great Monarch Mystic Martial in the past, so when he recalled the past at this moment, he not only fooled the Demon Vanquishing Tree, but also Han Fei.

However, Han Fei was wondering what the old turtle’s identity was. He had cultivated with Great Monarch Mystic Martial back then. Didn’t that mean their relationship was similar to his relationship with Zhang Xuanyu?

And Great Monarch Mystic Martial was already a Monarch back then. Then would the old turtle’s original body really be weak?

When the old turtle tricked the Demon Vanquishing Tree, saying that he knew a lot, from what Han Fei knew of the old turtle, he must have forgotten more.

!!
At this moment, the old turtle said, “Little Demon Vanquishing, what realm are you in now? Perhaps I can help you go further.”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree: “Senior, I’ve already entered the Carefree level. Unfortunately, my growth was built on the life essence passed down from my father and grandfather. In fact, on the day I proved Dao, my advancement was already very slow. After entering the Carefree level, I can barely feel my strength growing.”

The old turtle said leisurely, “That doesn’t make sense! How many years have you cultivated?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree replied honestly, “It’s been 390,000 years.”

The old turtle took a deep look at him and said, “Logically speaking, if you enjoy Puppet City alone, plus the jade transformation technique of your ancestors, you should have reached the peak of the Carefree level at least after such a long time. You might even be about to enter the immortal-level. Why did you stop at the Carefree level?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree was a little puzzled. “Jade Transformation Technique? What is that?”

The old turtle looked at the Demon Vanquishing Tree in shock. “Wait, you don’t know the Jade Transformation Technique?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree seemed to sigh. “Should I know?”

The old turtle shook his head slightly. “No wonder your realm has stagnated. You can step into the Carefree level. It seems that it’s entirely because you’re guarding Puppet City, so you have almost endless resources. However, your Demon Vanquishing Tree Monarch-level technique failed to be inherited by you. What happened in the past that you couldn’t inherit such an important thing?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree: “I don’t know! My father just asked me to guard this city. He said that one day, Great Monarch Mystic Martial would definitely return, so the city must be guarded.”

Han Fei was shocked to hear that. Did Great Monarch Mystic Martial go out for a million years? What did she do?

The old turtle rolled his eyes. “There’s still a chance. The jade transformation technique of your ancestors was found by Great Monarch Mystic Martial outside. It’s said that it came from the South Sea Divine Realm. Therefore, if you have seen Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s bedroom, you might be able to find this technique. At that time, I don’t dare say that you’ll grow rapidly, but you will definitely not stagnate again.”

When the Demon Vanquishing Tree heard that the old turtle wanted to check the sleeping chamber of Great Monarch Mystic Martial, he hurriedly said, “That won’t do! How can you enter Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s sleeping chamber? That’s the only forbidden area in Puppet City now. Not to mention me, even my ancestors haven’t entered Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s sleeping chamber.”

Han Fei was surprised. So the Great Monarch’s palace was still there?

The old turtle continued. “Stupid, you don’t even know where she went, but you refused others to enter her palace. What if there is something very important in this palace? What if Mystic Martial is waiting for you to save her? But if you don’t go to her palace to take a look, how do you know what information she left for you?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree said, “My father said that Great Monarch Mystic Martial left in a hurry. Because of Great Monarch Bloody Hand’s sudden request for help, Great Monarch Mystic Martial left with Great Monarch Bloody Hand before she could even give an explanation. Since then, we haven’t heard from her.”

Upon hearing this, Han Fei hurriedly said, “Senior Demon Vanquishing Tree, is the blood spring outside Puppet City left by the Great Monarch Bloody Hand?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree: “That’s right! When Great Monarch Bloody Hand came, he lost an arm. Great Monarch Mystic Martial ordered my ancestor to suppress that arm outside Puppet City, saying that she would deal with it when she came back. However, Great Monarch Mystic Martial never returned, and my ancestor didn’t have a way to completely cleanse this bloody hand, so he could only suppress it here. Until now, I dare not leave at all. Otherwise, this spring water will nurture countless ferocious creatures that keep trying to break into Puppet City.”

This Demon Vanquishing Tree wasn’t the first-generation Demon Vanquishing Trees, so it knew too little about what happened back then.

For example, why the Great Monarch Bloody Hand came to Great Monarch Mystic Martial for help, why Great Monarch Mystic Martial asked the Demon Vanquishing Tree to suppress the broken arm, and what they did later.

But in fact, these were not the most important things. The purpose of this trip was to reconstruct the old turtle’s body and to hunt for treasures.

Although the Demon Vanquishing Tree seemed to be friendly, judging from his attitude towards Great Monarch Mystic Martial, he didn’t even allow them to enter the Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s palace. If they took the egg of Great Monarch Mystic Martial, would he allow it?

Sure enough, although the old turtle was a little curious about what happened back then, he knew what he was here for. Therefore, Han Fei heard the old turtle say, “Little Demon Vanquishing! As you can see, I won’t keep it a secret from you. I’m here to find Mystic Martial’s egg. I only have the Yang Soul left now. I can’t go on like this. Therefore, I need to borrow her egg to be reborn…”

“That won’t do!”

Before the old turtle finished speaking, the Demon Vanquishing Tree had already refused.

However, the Demon Vanquishing Tree’s words made Han Fei and the old turtle realize that there were indeed Mystic Martial’s eggs in Puppet City.

The old turtle’s face immediately darkened. “Little Demon Vanquishing, with my relationship with Mystic Martial, I can easily get a turtle egg. I’ve told you so much today. Do you think I’m lying to you, or am I up to no good?”

However, the Demon Vanquishing Tree said, “Neither. I believe you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to know the deeds of Great Monarch Mystic Martial and my ancestors so clearly. But that’s a separate matter. You can have other requests, such as borrowing the power of minerals. Senior, you can use it however you want. However, Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s egg is her life inheritance. How can I give it away so easily?”

The old turtle said loudly, “Great Monarch Mystic Martial and I were close friends in the past. She laid countless eggs in her life. If I ask her, how can she not give one to me?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree’s branches and leaves trembled. “That won’t do either! No matter how close you are to Great Monarch Mystic Martial, if you want to take her life inheritance, you have to get Great Monarch Mystic Martial’s permission first.”

The old turtle was so angry that his mouth was crooked. “She hasn’t appeared for millions of years. Where can I find her? Little Demon Vanquishing, you have to be more flexible. Perhaps you can obtain the Jade Transformation Technique and continue cultivating to reach the immortal-level. Do you know that once you reach the immortal-level, you will catch up with your ancestor? In addition to the unique resources of Puppet City, perhaps within 100,000 years, you will have a chance to become a Great Monarch!”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree was silent for a few seconds, but in the end, it replied, “Sorry, Senior. I should stick to my original intentions. Even if I can’t reach the Immortal Level, I can’t pry into the Great Monarch’s privacy.”

Han Fei finally realized that this was a stubborn ass.

However, there was always room for maneuver. Han Fei said, “Senior Demon Vanquishing Tree, may I have a word?”

Hearing Han Fei’s words, the old turtle gave Han Fei several looks because he knew how eloquent this guy was.

Han Fei ignored the old turtle’s gaze and looked out of the city. “Senior Demon Vanquishing, you should know that cracks have already appeared in the barrier of the Mine Demon Stream, right? And there are more than one.”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree: “Yes, it’s been too long, so the seal is inevitably loosening. However, the seal of the Mine Demon Stream was laid by my ancestor with the silkworm molting of the Great Monarch Mystic Martial, so although it’s a little rotten now, it won’t be difficult to withstand another 100,000 years.”

Han Fei said, “Senior Demon Vanquishing Tree, you should know how powerful these Bloody Hand Mine Devils are, right? Although they haven’t proven Dao yet, they have the strength to fight the lowest-level Dao Prover. And there are tens of thousands of such Bloody Hand Mine Devils under the Mine Demon Stream. If they charge at Puppet City or collectively charge at the barrier in the Mine Demon Stream, how long do you think you can defend with this barrier?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree replied straightforwardly, “If that’s the case, I’m afraid the seal will be broken in less than ten thousand years. At that time, even I won’t be able to kill tens of thousands of Bloody Hand Mine Devils at once.”

Han Fei said, “Senior, let’s not talk about whether or not the Bloody Hand Mine Devils are going to attack the city. Even if you can hold on for a hundred thousand years, what about a hundred thousand years later? If you can’t hold on then, you and Puppet City will be penetrated by the Bloody Hand Mine Devils and corroded by them. At that time, do you think these Bloody Hand Mine Devils will let go of Puppet City? Will they let go of the palace of Great Monarch Mystic Martial?”

Seeing that the Demon Vanquishing Tree seemed to be thinking, Han Fei said, “Senior Demon Vanquishing Tree, in any case, this place can last at most another hundred thousand years. How about this? If I can help you get rid of this blood spring, can you give me a turtle egg?”

The Demon Vanquishing Tree still wanted to say something, but the old turtle said angrily, “Little Demon Vanquishing, think about it carefully. Once Puppet City is conquered, all the turtle eggs will be destroyed, and the palace of Great Monarch Mystic Martial will definitely be destroyed. In that case, why don’t we help you solve this blood spring now and relieve you of your worries? This choice is easy to make, right?”
