Primordial Era: I really don't want to be the Heavenly Emperor!

Chapter 79 The Giants on Daiyu Island (Please Subscribe)

The giant turtle patriarch's move startled Donghua. He couldn't kick it away no matter how hard he tried. He couldn't just stomp it to death like that, could he?

"If you have something to say, stand up and speak to me. If you continue like this, I'll kick you into your next life!"

Upon hearing this, the Giant Turtle Clan Chief immediately stopped crying, got up from the ground, and touched his eyes. He wondered how someone of the Great Luo Golden Immortal could shed tears so easily.

"Your Majesty, we beg you, Giant Turtle, to save our Giant Turtle clan! If you do not intervene, our clan will be wiped out!"

Having said that, he was about to kneel down again, repeating the scene from before. Donghua was startled, grabbed him, threw him to the ground, and said, "If you dare to cry and make a scene again, I won't need anyone else; I'll grant your wish right now—to exterminate your entire clan!"

The giant turtle was startled. "This is not what I imagined. Isn't it said that the Eastern King Duke is very concerned about his reputation?"

After a few quick laughs, Donghua released him and listened to the other person slowly explain.

"Your Majesty, the giants of Daiyu Island overseas have gone too far in bullying our people. They are actually hunting and killing our people in the sea for food. How arrogant they are! This is not just killing our people, it's slapping you in the face, Your Majesty!"

Donghua nodded leisurely and said, "The giant race is indeed despicable, but the giant turtle race is not one of my Purple Mansion's people. Since that's the case, let's fight it out. I don't care!"

The giant turtle patriarch readily agreed, saying, "That's right, they dared to slap you in the face, we..."

At this point, as if suddenly understanding Donghua's words, she looked incredulous and anxiously said, "Your Majesty, they have slapped you in the face, how can we just let this go?"

Donghua's smiling face suddenly turned cold, and his aura spread out, directly pressing the Giant Turtle Clan Chief to the ground and making him kneel down.

"Tell me, who sent you? Who told you to say those things?"

The giant turtle patriarch knelt on the ground and quickly recounted everything, emphasizing honesty.

"Your Majesty, I came here of my own accord. As for what I said earlier, it was my clan's elder who instructed me to say it, saying that you value your reputation and would certainly help us repel the giants. That's why I did it. Please explain, Your Majesty!"

Incoherent!

"Lift your head up!"

Donghua then stared at the other person for a while and found that what he said was true.

He thought to himself, "Could I have guessed wrong? But the Dragon Giant Clan of Daiyu Island and my Purple Mansion have kept to themselves for many years. Why would they suddenly hunt down members of the Giant Turtle Clan today? It's truly incomprehensible!"

"Speak! Why have the giants suddenly begun hunting you down?"

The giant turtle patriarch thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know the reason, but I have a guess, I don't know if it's correct?"

"The Longbo Giant Clan has remained secluded on the island since the war between immortals and demons. I heard that it was because they were cursed by the Cursed Demon under the command of the Demon Ancestor Rahu during the war, which caused their overall strength to decline and their cultivation level to regress."

Upon hearing the words of the Giant Turtle Clan Chief, Donghua thought of the Cursed Demon under the command of the Demon Ancestor Rahu. This person only cultivated the Great Dao of Curses and was an extremely terrifying demon. He was very fortunate that he was not the one who faced the Cursed Demon back then, otherwise the consequences would have been unpredictable.

The primordial world is vast and full of wonders. There are three thousand great paths, and each one has its own. Sometimes, opponents like Taiyi are not so scary. What is scary are people like the Cursed Demon, Panwang, and Zhunti.

Yes, there's also Zhunti. Just thinking about this guy gives Donghua a headache. To be honest, Zhunti's combat power isn't high, but of course, that's only in comparison to the best of his generation.

However, Zhunti cultivated the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, truly reaching the realm of creating something from nothing. Even though you've never met him or had any dealings with him, he can say something like:

"Fellow Daoist, we are destined to meet!"

"Fellow Daoist, you and I have a karmic connection to the West!"

Don't think these two sentences are just empty words. If it were someone else, they would just be saying it casually, but if Zhunti says them, then there is a real connection. This is the terrifying and domineering nature of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect. It creates something from nothing. If I say it exists, then it exists!

Of course, if you are strong enough, there's nothing to be afraid of. No matter how it changes, just break through with force!

Like the Panwang Ancestor that Donghua dealt with back then, whose Gu Dao was unpredictable and strange. Those three Gu worms formed from his essence, energy and spirit were really powerful. If Donghua hadn't had many spiritual treasures that could counteract them, he would definitely have died!

However, when it comes to Pan Wang's three Gu worms, Donghua remembered that the pure essence transformed from that Gu worm is still sealed in the Spirit Treasure Gourd. However, he hadn't figured out how to use it, since that essence could definitely help a Great Luo Golden Immortal achieve the physical body.

After Donghua refined the Qi Gu worm, he gave it to Shao Siming to help her break through to the Quasi-Saint realm. This is why Shao Siming was able to surpass others and break through to the Quasi-Saint realm first, although she was only a Quasi-Saint in terms of magical power.

The essence of the Divine Gu Worm was collected by Donghua in a gourd, but it has not been used yet because the Divine Gu Worm was the one that was collected the least amount of at the time. After it was scattered by the evil corpse, only a portion was collected.

The three Gu worms are very magical and truly nourishing. If possible, Donghua hopes to get some more.

He still misses Panwang Laozu very much. By the way, how many Panwang anniversaries have passed now?

Donghua spoke up, "If I remember correctly, the Demon of Curse was killed by Fellow Daoists Jieyin and Zhunti. Why would it be related to the Giant Race?"

Chief of the Giant Turtle Clan: "Your Majesty, the Cursed Demon was indeed killed by Daoist Jieyin Zhunti. However, the first to confront the Cursed Demon was the Giant Clan. The Giant Clan Chief Longbo severely injured the Demon and forced it to flee, which is why it was killed by Jieyin Zhunti."

"Few people know about that battle, but I witnessed it and still remember it vividly!"

"The Cursed Demon is truly bizarre; every method it uses is imbued with the power of curses. Longbo had no way to use his strength. At that time, all those who attacked the demon were experts from the giant race, but in the end, none of them escaped unscathed; they were all deeply afflicted by the curse!"

Donghua was unaware of the matter and didn't say much, but instead asked, "If the giants are in such a bad situation, why are they still hunting and killing your race?"

The giant turtle patriarch hesitated, then said weakly, "Your Majesty, can I not tell you the reason?"

Donghua smiled and said, "Of course you can. You don't have to tell me, but if you don't, I won't make a move!"

Upon hearing the first few sentences, the giant turtle smiled, but after the last sentence, its face fell, its expression complex and thoughtful. After a long pause, it slowly said:

"Your Majesty, if Your Majesty is willing to lend a helping hand to our clan and help us overcome this calamity, our clan is willing to completely submit to Your Majesty's command, and from then on, we will obey your every command without ever regretting it!"

Even now, the Giant Turtle Clan Chief still hasn't revealed the reason, but instead has started raising the stakes, making Donghua increasingly interested.

"I am pleased that your clan has pledged allegiance, but you refuse to explain why. I do not wish to have such a subordinate. Because of the unknown, because of your unreliability, because of your distrust of me, I have no choice but to let this opportunity pass. You may leave!"

The Giant Turtle Clan Chief fell into deep thought again, seemingly struggling with something. Finally, he slowly said, "Your Majesty, this matter concerns the life and death of our clan, and it is truly difficult to speak of. As a Quasi-Saint, Your Majesty should know that once many things are spoken, they are no longer secrets."

Donghua agreed with this statement and said, "I understand that, but no one can learn this from me before me, unless they are a saint!"

The Giant Turtle Chieftain steeled his heart and said, "Your Majesty, the reason why the Giants hunt and kill our race is because our bloodline contains the power of purification. This power can alleviate their curse to a certain extent, which is why we have been hunted so extensively."

"The giants are powerful, and they have many quasi-saints who are beyond our ability to defeat. That is why we have come to Your Majesty for help. We earnestly hope that Your Majesty can lend a hand and drive away the giants."

Donghua asked in shock, "The power of purification? Where does the power of purification come from in the bloodline of your Giant Turtle Clan?"

The Giant Turtle Clan Chief had no choice but to tell the truth: if he didn't explain why today, they were determined not to help.

Then he spat out a white bead!

As soon as this pearl appeared, the surrounding area was filled with the light of purification. The white lotus of purification in the Donghua Purple Mansion world stirred and began to operate on its own, radiating endless light.

"This pearl, whose name is unknown, was obtained by our clan's ancestor by chance on Penglai Island. He refined it with his bloodline, and from then on, every member of our clan born with the power to purify the world was born, and it was named the Purification Pearl!"

Donghua did not stop the Purifying White Lotus. The moment it was released, the Purifying White Lotus immediately flew out and began to operate on its own. The Purifying Pearl in the Giant Turtle Clan Chief's hand also flew out uncontrollably.

The two treasures rotated around each other, each emitting endless light. Then, their rotation speed increased until finally the pearl merged into the Pure White Lotus, becoming one.

The Pure White Lotus then stopped operating and flew back into Donghua's Purple Mansion World.

The giant turtle patriarch stared wide-eyed, looking utterly incredulous.

"Is that much of a magical treasure of mine?"

Donghua looked troubled on the surface, but he was secretly overjoyed and exclaimed how beautiful Bai Lianqian was.

He then said apologetically, "Brother Ju'ao, you see, I didn't do it on purpose. I don't understand what happened either."

The giant turtle patriarch sighed deeply and said, "Alas, it was never meant to be ours. To have it was my fortune, to lose it was my fate; it was the will of Heaven!"

"Brother Ju'ao, please don't do this, please don't do this. If you say that, what kind of person do I, Donghua, become? This pearl belongs to your clan, but now I have obtained it for no reason. I must compensate you."

Donghua thought for a moment, then took out a spiritual treasure and said, "I have a superior-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Water Control Pearl. This treasure can control all the waters in the world. Your clan cultivates the Great Dao of Water, so it is most suitable for you. I wonder if Brother Giant Turtle would be willing to understand this cause and effect?"

The giant turtle was a straightforward man. He readily accepted the Water Control Pearl and said, "Your Majesty possesses the top-tier spiritual treasure, the Twelfth-Grade Pure World White Lotus. The Pure World Pearl is destined for Your Majesty and is rightfully yours. Our clan is willing to understand the cause and effect, but we hope Your Majesty can save our clan!"

Donghua reached out and helped the giant turtle up, saying, "Brother Giant Turtle is a straightforward man, and I am not one to mince words. I have agreed to help you with your clan's matter!"

"Your Majesty, please don't address me like that; it's too much of an honor for this humble immortal!"

Donghua patted the giant turtle and said, "Brother, we are destined to meet, so why bother with formalities? Besides, your clan is only dependent on me, not under my command, so there's no need for such formality."

The giant turtle ancestor's small eyes darted around a few times, and he thought to himself, "Now that the spiritual treasure is lost and the clan's troubles haven't been resolved, it would be better to submit to the Purple Mansion and gain their support!"

They said, "Your Majesty, our clan is willing to submit to the Purple Mansion and serve Your Majesty from now on."

"Haha, no problem, no problem, no problem!"
