Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 511 The Unethical White Turtle Carrying the Immortal

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the sound of breaking ground rang out, and deep in the soil of the island, a plant grew, pure white, scattering showers of light.

A white tortoise carrying an immortal!

That's it! It had been hiding under the soil before; it's very cunning.

Moreover, this soil is no ordinary soil; it is a soil containing all things, measuring a full ten feet in circumference, making it a priceless treasure!

Lin Fan's eyes widened immediately; the brilliant light made the soil appear like glistening grains of sand.

This is absolutely incredible luck!

Lin Fan had obtained some before; it could gather the essence of heaven and earth, making it most suitable for planting precious herbs.

Legend has it that the earth can nourish everything.

If an immortal dies in battle and is buried in this land, not only will they be preserved for eternity, but they may also be resurrected after endless years.

Take, for example, a puppy that perished in the previous era, but was buried in the soil of all things and miraculously reborn.

How outrageous is this?

"Fellow Daoist, please calm down." The voice came again from within the mist.

At the same time, a flash of light appeared, and a beautiful woman emerged from the ground, stepping on a white tortoise. Her graceful figure was stunning, and she looked at them with curiosity.

In fact, neither the tortoise nor the beautiful woman is very large; they are only seen from a distance, which makes people mistake them for real immortals descending to earth.

However, this is just a medicinal herb, and its fragrant aroma cannot be faked.

"cough!"

With a soft cough, the white turtle's next action confirmed everything. It spat out two drops of liquid, which were fragrant and delicious.

Undoubtedly, it was an incredibly valuable elixir of immortality, capable of reviving the dead, flesh and bones, and even effective against the sect leader.

“Fellow Daoist, consider these two drops of Longevity Elixir as an apology for what happened earlier. Please, in a gesture of goodwill, spare the island’s rare herbs. Each one of them has a difficult history to grow,” said the white tortoise.

"This fragrance is wonderful! It truly lives up to its name as the Elixir of Immortality, surpassing even divine medicine!" Qingyi exclaimed in surprise and excitement.

Unlike her, Lin Fan did not immediately accept it. He had a celestial herb, so he was not lacking in longevity elixir.

Moreover, he was completely baffled. This white tortoise seemed a bit like his own, almost asking for a beating. Or were all immortal herbs the same?

It's not enough to just get a drop of medicine from any part of the body; it has to be a drop of saliva. It looks rather lewd and makes people want to vomit.

However, seeing that Lin Fan hadn't made a move, the white tortoise assumed that he felt it wasn't enough and said, "I can give you another drop, fellow Daoist!"

As soon as it finished speaking, it opened its mouth, its tongue shining white, ready to spit out another drop.

"Stop! I didn't come here for the Elixir of Immortality, but to use the ruins on the island to cultivate for a while," Lin Fan said.

"I see. Fellow Daoist, you should have said so earlier. You gave me quite a fright." The white tortoise breathed a sigh of relief, but remained vigilant, keeping a certain distance.

Lin Fan frowned. If it weren't for the immortal array on the island, he probably wouldn't have been able to resist taking action and beating this damn turtle to a pulp.

However, despite her initial dislike, she still accepted the two drops of the longevity elixir, since who would complain about having too many good things?

Besides, what he wants is not just this, but the entire immortal herb and the entire fortune of the island.

Of course, Lin Fan wouldn't reveal his purpose now, for fear of scaring away the White Tortoise Carrying Immortal and causing him to abandon the medicine garden.

There was no other way; Xiao Naihao severed the immortal golden chains, releasing it from its confinement. Once it was startled and fled, it would be extremely difficult to catch again.

"Hmm, fellow Daoist, you look familiar..." The white tortoise scratched its head, then exclaimed in surprise, "It's you!"

Even the woman on its back was staring at Lin Fan in deep thought, a rare emotion on her face, her large eyes darting around. "Wow... Fellow Daoist, we haven't seen each other for hundreds of thousands of years! You've finally come to pick us up, fulfilling your promise. I'm so moved..."

The white tortoise cried out, symbolically shedding two tears that emitted an amazing fragrance—it was also the elixir of immortality.

Lin Fan was puzzled, and Qing Yi was dumbfounded. What was this old turtle up to?

"Fellow Daoist, don't you remember? Two hundred thousand years ago, we made a promise that when the Immortal Ancient Realm was broken, you would come to rescue me," the white tortoise said again.

Lin Fan was still puzzled. He didn't remember ever seeing this white turtle before, so he asked carefully.

Although the white turtle was suspicious, it still recounted a story from the past.

"In that lifetime, it also happened to be the time when the Immortal Ancient Era began. A young man once came to the island and made a promise to me that I would lend him the Immortal Palace to cultivate immortal energy. If he didn't die, he would come to rescue me from the Immortal Ancient Era in the future..."

"Originally, I just wanted to give it a try, but I never expected that he would actually cultivate immortal energy, rise to prominence in one lifetime, and become invincible in the world!"

Later, in one of my lifetimes, I heard that he became the youngest supreme being in history, which almost made me incredibly happy…

"You're not talking about the Devouring Demon Emperor, are you?" Qingyi glanced at Lin Fan out of the corner of her eye as she spoke.

“That’s right, that’s what people call him in the outside world.” White Tortoise nodded.

Then, it chuckled slyly, "Hehe... From now on, let's see who dares to say that I, Turtle Lord, am just an elixir of immortality. I've also raised a supreme being..."

Upon hearing this, both Lin Fan and Qing Yi were speechless.

How dare this turtle claim to be the Supreme Master? He's got some nerve!

"You may not know, but the Devouring Demon Emperor has already fallen," Qingyi said.

"What? Who did this? The Supreme One is already a peak cultivator of the human realm. In an era when immortals did not appear, he was almost invincible in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Who could kill him?!" The white tortoise did not believe it.

"I heard that he did not die because of external enemies, but because he failed to transcend the tribulation to become an immortal," Qingyi explained.

"Alas... Fellow Daoist, you are so outstanding, why be so foolish as to do something you know is impossible?" the Longevity Elixir sighed.

The woman in white sang a melodious song, as if in mourning, chanting a hymn to the deceased, which evoked sadness in the listener.

Then, the white tortoise looked at Lin Fan and suddenly exclaimed in horror, "Heavens! Fellow Daoist, you look so much like him. Could it be that you are a lingering ghost, unwilling to leave the mortal realm?"

"No, fellow Daoist, we have no grudges against each other, and I have even helped you before. Even if you want to seek revenge, don't come after me."

The white turtle cried out and leaped to a distance in an instant.

Beside him, Lin Fan's forehead was covered in black lines, and a strange anger rose in his heart. This white tortoise carrying the immortal was really too immoral and disgusting.

He couldn't help but curse inwardly: You're the dead one, you're the lingering ghost, you have one on your own tortoise shell, and you still have the nerve to say that!

Fortunately, he was a good actor and managed to hold back for the sake of his grand plan. He exhaled and said, "I am his biological son."

"I'm quite old, young man, and I can't be easily frightened. You should have told me the truth sooner, or I would have..."

The white turtle bared its teeth, and despite being a plant, it surprisingly extended a claw and patted its own belly.

"Come here, I promise I won't kill you!" At this moment, even Lin Fan, who had the best temper, couldn't hold back anymore and rolled up his sleeves.

Because this elixir of immortality is so unethical; it's like the reincarnation of a wicked devil, infuriating and utterly deserving of a beating.

Lin Fan secretly vowed that once he caught it, he would take its body and make the woman in white sing him celestial songs every day to vent his anger!

“Um…you’re asking to borrow the ancient palace, right? I’ll show you around and give you directions.” White Tortoise felt uneasy under his gaze, shrank his neck, and said this.

"Hmph, lead the way!" Lin Fan snorted coldly.
