The Black Tortoise Sacred Ground's plaza was razed to the ground. But soon, a palace appeared.
Sorrowful Green Silk led the Ice God Palace's experts and Huan Ji to guard outside the palace to protect Zhong Shan.
Bajiji Tenao swallowed Zu Xuanwu's corpse. The so-called Zu Xuanwu was the first Xuanwu in the world. The first. To be called the first, one could see its long history. At the very least, Pangu, Hongjun, and the others were younger than it.
Its four legs could support the sky, and each leg was at the level of a Saint's treasure. It could be seen how powerful the remaining parts were.
Zu Xian's Eighth Heaven Black Heaven Sect couldn't refine it for their own use even after countless years. Now, it was in Bajiji Tenao's mouth.
Bajiji Tenao's digestion was extremely terrifying. In about a day, it was completely digested. Different from refining, it only needed energy and didn't care about the profound structure.
"Hong long long ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!"
Zhong Shan's bone frame let out rumbling sounds, causing the entire palace to tremble.
"Boom!"
There was a loud sound. Zhong Shan's forehead was covered in cold sweat as he opened his eyes.
"Another breakthrough? Zu Xian's Third Heaven? "Zhong Shan looked at his palm with satisfaction.
Closing his eyes, Zhong Shan checked his body once more. He was now at the third Firmament of the Ancestral Immortal Realm.
The further one progressed, the harder it was to cultivate. Although the thick bone frame was an obstacle for Zhong Shan's rapid growth, Zhong Shan didn't have the same restriction as others. Misfortune and fortune were interdependent. As long as there was something better than Zu Xuanwu, Zhong Shan could still break through in the blink of an eye.
Opening his eyes again, Zhong Shan's eyes flashed with coldness as he slowly looked at his palm.
In his palm, a small whirlpool was slowly spinning. It was very quiet, but anyone who knew about it would be terrified. God Art, Collapse!
The Collapse God Art spun in Zhong Shan's palm for a while. Suddenly, it twisted slightly and split into two, turning into two whirlpools. Moreover, they were whirlpools spinning in opposite directions.
Gradually, the two whirlpools spun in reverse to form a Yin-Yang fish pattern. The two whirlpools were the eyes of the Yin-Yang fish.
Zhong Shan sneered and said, "This is the real 'collapse'. Replicating divine arts? Ha! "
On the original Black Tortoise Plaza, a day had passed. Countless Black Tortoises became irritated.
Zhi's Elders and Elders were all gone. but Zhong Shan was strangely, he didn't leave. Why did this feel so strange?
"Whoosh!"
A stream of light shot down, and a white figure suddenly appeared on the square.
Elder, it's Elder! "
"Turtle Divine Martial Elder?"
"Greetings, Elder!"
…
…
…
The Black Tortoises, the Turtle 'Sect Divine Land Sect' Realm.
Turtle Shenwu ignored the other Black Tortoises. Instead, he looked at Zhong Shan's hall with a complicated expression. There was anger, helplessness, relief, and confusion in his eyes.
"Master, this is …?" A Black Tortoise walked up.
Gui Shenwu looked at him, shook his head and said, "You all go back. In a few days, I will gather you all again to discuss the Black Tortoise Race's matters!"
"Huh?" The Black Tortoises were stunned.
"Go!" Gui Shenwu shook his head.
"Yes!" The Black Tortoises could only nod.
Most of the Black Tortoises left, but there were still many who were unwilling to leave.
"Peng!" Another elder fell down, creating a large cloud of dust.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! …
The elders of the Black Tortoise Tribe landed one after another.
"Boom!"
Netherblue landed on the ground with Tortoise Snake.
The elders of the Black Tortoise Tribe were led by Gui Shenwu. It was obvious that Gui Shenwu was the strongest aside from the Black Heaven Sect. At the same time, Gui Shenwu had the highest status in the Black Tortoise Tribe.
Turtle-Snake stood in front of Turtle Shenwu.
The two of them faced each other.
All the elders' faces were gloomy, and so was Gui Shenwu.
Looking at the mess around him, Gui Shenwu closed his eyes. It was as if he was making a final decision.
All the elders could see that Xuan Tianzong was dead. Although Xuan Tianzong was very rude to the elders when he was alive, and some of the elders even resented Xuan Tianzong, Xuan Tianzong was still their leader.
Paragon? The Paragon was killed, and another one with a high bloodline had to admit that he was the Paragon? Was it that easy?
No matter what Turtle-Snake said to the elders, they still rejected him.
It was like a person who killed an emperor and forced the officials to admit that he was the new emperor. Would the officials be willing to accept that?
"Clang!" The door to the palace opened.
Zhong Shan walked out slowly in a luxurious golden robe.
With a flip of his hand, the palace disappeared.
Sorrowful Qingsi and Huan Ji immediately walked over.
Zhong Shan led everyone in the direction of Turtle-Snake.
As soon as Zhong Shan came out, the elders looked at Zhong Shan with hatred. Was he the one who killed Black Heaven Sect?
One of the elders even wanted to attack Zhong Shan, but another elder grabbed his wrist and shook his head to tell him not to be impulsive.
"Greetings, Holy King!" Turtle-Snake and Netherblue said respectfully.
Seeing Turtle-Snake bowing to Zhong Shan, the elders' eyes turned red. They originally wanted to submit to Turtle-Snake, but they were angered by Turtle-Snake's attitude. If they acknowledged Turtle-Snake as their Paragon, would the Black Tortoise Tribe have to join the Daikon State's Holy Court?
Some of the elders were so angry that they gasped for breath.
"Turtle-Snake, are you already the Paragon of the Black Tortoise Tribe?" Zhong Shan asked calmly.
Asking in front of all the elders was like slapping them in the face, and they were instantly enraged.
"You evil thieves, you killed the Paragon, and you want to take his position? Dream on! "An elder suddenly shouted.
"Holy King, we are still a little short!" Turtle-Snake frowned and shook his head.
Zhong Shan was not impatient, but looked at Turtle Shenwu and said, "Turtle Shenwu, what do you think?"
Turtle Shenwu? All the elders looked at Turtle Shenwu. What did he mean? Could it be that Zhong Shan had bribed Turtle Shenwu?
Turtle Shenwu was one of the three fourth-generation Black Tortoises of the Black Tortoise Tribe. At this moment, he looked at Zhong Shan and narrowed his eyes.
"Elder Shenwu, how can our Black Tortoise Tribe submit to a thief?" An elder immediately said.
"Shut up!" Turtle Shenwu coldly shouted.
That elder raised his eyebrows but did not refute. Although they were both elders, Turtle Shenwu's bloodline was higher than his.
Turtle Shenwu stared at Zhong Shan and said while gnashing his teeth, "Chung Holy King, good move!"
"I forgot to tell you that I was the one who told the crystallizer race not to come!" Zhong Shan said with a smile.
The crystallizer race? The pupils of the group of elders shrank.
The crystallizer race always came to the sacrificial ceremony, but they did not come this time. Was it because of Zhong Shan? Did the crystallizer race side with the Daikon State? And the Ice God Palace, it was obvious that the Ice God Palace was under Zhong Shan's command.
Turtle Shenwu realized that Zhong Shan was getting more and more terrifying.
"As you all know, the world is in chaos, and the turmoil in the North Continent is starting now. The Black Tortoise Tribe cannot be without a leader," Zhong Shan said solemnly.
Just as Zhong Shan said, a tribe could not be without a leader. If they ignored Turtle Shenwu, the leader would have to be one of the elders. There were three fourth-generation Black Tortoises in total, and no one was willing to submit to anyone. It would cause the Black Tortoise Tribe to be in a state of disunity.
A state of disunity would not matter much when the world was at peace, but now that the world was in chaos, wouldn't that be courting death?
Therefore, Zhong Shan was sure that the elders would not make things difficult for Turtle Shenwu after he killed the Black Heaven Sect.
"It won't be long before I return to the Wind Tomb Weave. This is still your Black Tortoise Tribe. Moreover, my vision is not something your Black Tortoise Tribe can stop. I won't interfere with your tribe's internal affairs," Zhong Shan said calmly.
Zhong Shan was negotiating for Turtle Shenwu's sake.
"No, they killed the Supreme-Being!" An Elder immediately cried out.
"Shut up, you have no right to speak here!" Another elder shouted. This elder was also a fourth-generation Black Tortoise.
The elder who shouted earlier was speechless.
Now that the leader was dead, the three fourth-generation Black Tortoise Tribe elders were in charge.
"What do you think?" Zhong Shan asked with a smile.
The three fourth-generation Black Tortoise Tribe elders frowned.
"The Black Heaven Sect can't represent the Black Tortoise Tribe. The Black Tortoise Tribe is the Black Tortoise Tribe of all Black Tortoises. You're now in charge of the Black Tortoise Tribe, representing the Black Tortoise Tribe to decide its future. When the world is in chaos, whether or not the Black Tortoise Tribe can stand tall will depend on you!" Zhong Shan said calmly.
The elders fell silent.
"Why should we believe you?" Turtle Shenwu said in a deep voice.
All the elders stared at Zhong Shan.
"You don't have a choice. It doesn't matter if Turtle Shenwu doesn't become the leader. He's also a Black Tortoise leader in the Daikon State. It's only a matter of time before Turtle Shenwu returns with me. After a few years, the Black Tortoises here will slowly flow to the Daikon State. Do you believe me? Of course, half of the Black Tortoise Tribe's annihilation might be due to your wrong decision? "Zhong Shan said in a deep voice.
The elders grew angrier, but they also felt more helpless.
The Black Tortoise Tribe that was in a state of disunity would only slowly be absorbed by the Daikon State. By then, they would be more obedient to the Daikon State, and more than half of the Black Tortoise Tribe would die.
"Don't worry. I'll be leaving in a few days. Turtle Shenwu will spend a lot of time with you!" Zhong Shan said.
"Huh?"
The elders' eyes lit up. Spend a lot of time with them? The elders immediately saw hope. If Turtle Shenwu stayed, as long as he influenced them, he would definitely prioritize the Black Tortoise Tribe. Then, he might even leave the Daikon State.
Zhong Shan gave them despair, but he also gave them hope. Using both the carrot and the stick, the elders' mentality changed.
"Turtle Shenwu is willing to pay respects to the Prime!" Turtle Shenwu was the first to express his stance.
"Xuanwei is willing to pay respects to the Prime!" Another elder said.
…
…
…
After the three fourth-generation elders made their promises, the elders had no choice but to pay respects to Turtle Shenwu.
Zhong Shan smiled with satisfaction. The elders wanted to reform Turtle Shenwu after he left? Ha, let's see who can reform who when Xiao Wang comes.
So far, Zhong Shan had gained the most in the Northernmost Land. (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to vote for it at qidian.com. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
