Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits

Chapter 580: 182 Threshold of the Eight-Turn Golden Core_1

Su Yu’s face changed slightly, a chill coursed through his body. The moment he perceived the figure outside, chills ran down his spine, abruptly halting his impulse to rush out.

Luckily, his observation through the golden cicada magic artifact, which allows him to use divine skills, did not alert the figure who had sneakily entered the Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion.

Through his observation, Su Yu not only clearly saw the identity of this figure but also quantified its strength.

“Hiss——”

He drew a quiet breath and murmured in his mind, “Nascent Soul Realm’s peak, wait, this isn’t a human, it’s a Mystic Turtle of the Sea Clan. So, should I say it is of the fourth order of highest rank among the Sea Clan?”

Under his vigilant eyes, which possessed the soul of a golden cicada, the figure in the courtyard revealed itself to be a giant beast, a Mystic Turtle spanning dozens of feet.

The concealed aura of its fierce power made Su Yu’s scalp tingle.

It’s the Mystic Turtle of the Sea Clan!

A top-class fourth-order member of the Sea Clan has infiltrated and seemed to be in search of something!

In an instant, Su Yu regained his senses: “Is it seeking the ancient spirit beast, the Mystic Turtle, from my possession? Does this Mystic Turtle of the Sea Clan know about the birth of this ancient Mystic Turtle?”

He found it a bit unbelievable, he’d never considered that a simple ancient relic like a beast’s egg would alarm the Sea Clan residing deep within the Fu Lings oceanic territory.

They even came right up to him.

Does that mean he knows that the Mystic Turtle is in my possession? Does he know my true identity?

Various thoughts swirled in Su Yu’s mind. His divine eyes remained focused on the figure outside, ready to use the Skywalk Escape Skill at a moment’s notice if this guy tried to break in.

However, under his watch, although the figure snuck into the courtyard inside Pill Pavilion, it didn’t proceed to snoop into various rooms.

While it covertly observed each room, the figure furrowed its brows.

“Not here.” The figure grumbled, his face displaying unspeakable distress.

After searching for so long, they had nearly turned the entire King’s Immortal City upside down.

But they had failed to find that ancient bloodline.

If things continued this way, how were they going to report back to their ancestors ——

After failing to find anything in Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion, the figure left the courtyard without alerting anyone, and snuck into the courtyard of a neighboring shop to continue the search.

Su Yu watched. He only let out a soft sigh of relief after watching the figure search several shops in succession.

So, the figure hadn’t targeted him directly.

“From the looks of it, it should still be searching in a large scale. That way, it would just come down to mere luck. After all, magic artifacts and Beast Taming bags are quite common,” Su Yu thought.

Only when he saw the figure from the Sea Clan leave did he retract his divine gaze and furrow his brow.

How did the Sea Clan find its way to King’s Immortal City?

“Are they able to sense the location of the Mystic Turtle’s bloodline?” Su Yu speculated in his mind. “But since they didn’t come directly to me, perhaps their sense is only approximate?”

He felt he must be on the right track with his guess.

Only this would explain why the Mystic Turtle of the Sea Clan came here but didn’t come straight to him.

Hence,

On this thought, Su Yu decided against returning to the Earthly Immortal Mansion with the Mystic Turtle.

Nevertheless, a top fourth-order warrior from the Mystic Turtle Sea Clan sneaking into the terrestrial immortal mansions and covertly searching for the existence of Mystic Turtle bloodline—if they couldn’t find it, would they simply give up?

Su Yu took a deep breath and muttered softly, “I have a premonition that something big is about to happen in King’s Immortal City.”

The thought unsettled him, who just recently made a fourth-level breakthrough in body refinement, making him equivalent to a first-level True Monarch in the Nascent Soul Realm.

After quite a while.

Su Yu calmed himself completely and entered an ethereal state using the Golden Cicada Technique to contemplate his next move.

He deliberated in silence.

First, the safety of King’s Immortal City could be assured for the short term, since it isn’t a small force, and even the immortal sects had to weigh the consequences before starting a conflict here.

Second, although the Mystic Turtle Clan member was strong, he was only of the top fourth order and could not stir up trouble in King’s Immortal City.

Lastly, if the Mystic Turtle Sea Clan truly meant trouble, their clan forces were deep within the Fu Ling sea territories, and coming onto terrestrial immortal lands would be suicidal.

Unless——

They could borrow the power of the demon clan of the Daqian immortal realm.

But could the demon clan face the King’s Immortal City? Was it possible unless the whole demon clan of the Daqian immortal realm started an uproar?

After calmly deliberating for a while, Su Yu let out a soft sigh of relief, “Fortunately, I chose to come to the King’s Immortal City black market to earn some Spirit Stones instead of staying at the Earthly Immortal Mansion.”

“Otherwise, I might have brought trouble from the Mystic Turtle Sea Clan.”

At this point, he surely wouldn’t want a calamity befalling his current safe haven, the Earthly Immortal Mansion.

As for the King’s Immortal City—he didn’t really care.

Before leaving the secret room, Su Yu surveilled the outside and nearby Pill Pavilion once more. After not spotting the figure of the Sea Clan potentate, he cautiously stepped out.

A short while later.

Su Yu summoned Lin Qingxia, Lin Bing, and Yang Yumin, and quietly instructed, “Stay indoors recently, just stay in the pill pavilion.”

Lin Qingxia, Lin Bing, and Yang Yumin looked solemn.

Surprised and doubtful, Lin Qingxia softly asked, “Master, what happened?”

While Su Yu didn’t intend to elaborate further, thinking that Lin Qingxia and the others were already aware of the Mystic Turtle, he conveyed through spiritual transmission, “The Mystic Turtle beast you saw previously? An elder from its clan has transformed into a human and is looking for it.”
