Chapter 210: She’s Probably Not an Ordinary Person
“Black Tortoise essence blood… and another egg… could it be… the egg of a Black Tortoise divine beast?”
Upon seeing the human-sized egg, everyone’s breathing grew rapid, and their eyes gradually burned with intense heat.
Black Tortoise.
This kind of divine beast held a position among the spirit clan that could only be described as supreme.
Once it reached adulthood, it would be a Saint King, and with just a bit more effort, it could become an Emperor. This kind of innate advantage was something the human race simply could not compete with—their starting point was already the endpoint for countless others.
If one could seize this Black Tortoise egg and nurture it properly, then in the future, whether for oneself or for one’s sect, it would mean gaining a powerful backer.
With a Saint King, or even an Emperor overseeing them, who would dare provoke them?
“No wonder… So Wu Gu came here for the Black Tortoise essence blood. But perhaps even he didn’t expect that, aside from the blood, there would also be a Black Tortoise egg!”
A Divine Palace Realm expert revealed himself high in the sky. Standing atop the heavens, he muttered to himself, eyes blazing with fervor.
Just a drop of Black Tortoise essence blood alone wasn’t enough to truly stir their hearts.
After all, most of those present were human.
And for humans, without special secret techniques, it was extremely difficult to refine even a single drop of Black Tortoise essence blood, let alone acquire the divine techniques hidden within it.
But now, with the appearance of a Black Tortoise egg, the situation has completely changed.
In some respects, the value of a Black Tortoise egg could rival several Sacred Weapons. The only reason it didn’t match that of Imperial Weapons was because raising a Black Tortoise demanded an astronomical amount of resources.
There were very few factions that could actually afford to raise one.
“All these years have passed, and that drop of blood still hasn’t degraded. It’s safe to say, this Black Tortoise essence blood egg is definitely not a dead egg!”
Another Divine Palace Realm expert stepped forward. His voice was soft, but it spread clearly across the surrounding void.
Everyone present had sharp senses.
Upon hearing these words, they couldn’t help but feel their hearts stir.
“If nothing unexpected happens, then this Black Tortoise egg will likely be the greatest fortune left behind in this small world of the Great Strength Divine Demon Sect,” Zhen Huang remarked with a sigh, turning his head.
Not far from him, a Black Tortoise phantom loomed—its presence suppressing heaven and earth, exuding an awe-inspiring pressure. It was as if a real Black Tortoise had come back to life, looking down upon the world, leaving everyone trembling in shock.
Thankfully, the Black Tortoise the Great Strength Divine Demon Sect had possessed in the past had only been an adult.
If it had been any stronger, then this phantom alone could have slaughtered every single person in this miniature world!
“…Li Xun’s fiancée… she’s probably not an ordinary person!”
Unlike the others who were focused on the Black Tortoise essence blood and the egg, Zhen Huang felt little greed toward them.
Instead, he was more interested in Li Xun and his fiancée Qin Xueyi.
Li Xun’s talent and potential went without saying—but his fiancée, up until recently, hadn’t had much of a reputation. She had only revealed herself once not long ago, and had merely gained a slight upper hand against the Star-Moon Demon Sect Holy Son.
And yet… now things were beginning to look different.
That slight upper hand she’d gained previously had only been because she caught her opponent off guard.
But looking at things now, the situation has clearly changed.
This woman named Qin Xueyi had actually seen through the Black Tortoise's corpse, detecting a hidden space concealed within it.
That in itself was already impressive.
But even more astonishing was the fact that she had been able to open this hidden space and extract the treasures inside.
That was borderline unbelievable.
One had to understand that the secret realm left behind by the Great Strength Divine Demon Sect wasn’t something comparable to an ordinary storage ring.
This was a genuine, independent miniature world—capable of nurturing all things within it.
Only experts deeply versed in the Law of Space could open such a realm.
And yet Qin Xueyi, inside this very secret realm, had forcibly opened a vortex and retrieved the items within.
There could only be one explanation:
She, too, had mastered the Law of Space.
To wield the Law of Space while still at the Divine Power Realm—what kind of monstrous genius was this?!
Zhen Huang was utterly stunned.
Even looking through the annals of ancient history, no one like Qin Xueyi had ever appeared.
In comparison, even Li Xun paled when it came to Law comprehension.
“Two such heaven-defying geniuses appearing in the same territory under the Great Zhou Empire—and the two are even engaged… this is simply unbelievable.”
Zhen Huang was shaken to his core.
At that moment, a powerful voice echoed through heaven and earth:
“The Black Tortoise essence blood has already emerged—what are you all waiting for?”
From the distant void, a burly figure strode forward.
His entire body was covered in bulging muscles, like a walking iron tower, suppressing the air itself.
He resembled a volcano on the verge of eruption—his body emanating endless blood energy. Every movement he made was full of overwhelming force that made hearts tremble.
“It’s Elder Hong from the Star-Moon Divine Sect!”
Someone recognized the approaching powerhouse and cried out in surprise.
Many had expected the Great Chu Dynasty to make the first move.
But the Great Chu’s forces had yet to arrive.
In the end, it was the Star-Moon Divine Sect who confronted Li Xun first.
Unexpected? Perhaps. But not without reason.
“We have over a dozen Divine Palace Realm experts here—enough to sweep through this entire secret realm,” Elder Hong declared slowly, his voice like rolling thunder that sent waves of emotion rippling through the crowd’s faces.
“As long as we defeat them, the Black Tortoise essence blood and the divine beast egg will go to the worthy. What do you all say?”
At this point, it was clear to everyone that Li Xun, through some unknown means, had rallied allies like the Northern Yu Divine Emperor and others.
These people weren’t going to oppose Li Xun.
On the contrary, they’d help him.
In this case, if the others wanted a chance at the Black Tortoise essence blood and divine beast egg, they’d have to join forces.
With over a dozen Divine Palace Realm powerhouses, they had more than enough strength to crush Li Xun’s group.
Even if the Northern Yu Divine Emperor was powerful, how many opponents of the same rank could he possibly block?
Just as they were preparing to strike, a childlike voice suddenly echoed across the void:
“You’re not allowed to hurt my big brother!”
“…Huh?”
Hearing that voice, many people turned in its direction.
But when they saw who had arrived, they couldn't help but burst out laughing.
At first, they’d thought it might be someone important.
But to their surprise, it turned out to be a child at the Profound Elixir Realm, accompanied by a young man at the early Life and Death Realm.
Right now, nearly 90% of those present were Divine Palace Realm experts.
These two arriving at such a moment added nothing to the situation—except maybe two extra corpses.
