Primordial Era: I, Wutu, govern the Earthly Dao and suppress the Heavenly Dao.

Beiming belongs to the North Sea, but it is different from other waters, being an independent, dark body of water.

The place is icy cold, and the seawater is dark black, with no bottom in sight. It is extremely terrifying, and even the ferocious beasts of the past rarely set foot here.

Therefore, the Northern Ren Gui Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, was not obtained by the ferocious beast.

When the Five Elements Ancestor arrived here, he discovered this magical treasure and also saw two enormous creatures!

One of them is a tortoise, and it is extremely large!

Its back resembles a large map of the earth, covered with a thick layer of ice and spiritual moss, with exotic flowers, rare herbs and spiritual plants everywhere, and even the soil on its back has spiritual veins!

The portion of the river that is above water alone is hundreds of millions of miles wide, and countless creatures have been born there!

It is evident that this giant tortoise possesses numerous laws of power, the most powerful of which are water and earth, which gently sustain all things!

It is none other than the Black Tortoise of the North Sea!

It is one of the earliest innate beings in the primordial world, born with heaven and earth, and its intelligence has long been developed, with a foundation far deeper than that of ordinary innate beings!

The reason it is in the Northern Underworld is because of the great calamity of the ferocious beasts.

Born in the North Sea, it was destined to be destroyed by a clan of ferocious beasts that wreaked havoc on the prehistoric world, along with the creatures on its back.

It was not afraid of ferocious beasts, but in order to protect the creatures on its back and its Xuan Turtle clan, it still set foot in the Northern Sea and ventured into the Northern Darkness.

Another colossal creature, thousands of miles away from the North Sea Black Tortoise, surged and leaped out of the sea.

Its body resembles a fish, though it is not nearly as large as the Black Tortoise of the North Sea, it is still fifty thousand miles in size. Its entire body is jet black, and its scales shimmer with a ghostly light like that of the Northern Darkness.

The moment it leaped out of the sea, its twin fish wings transformed into the wings of a roc, soaring upwards, its wings spreading out to blot out the sky!

In the Northern Sea there is a fish, its name is Kun, which transforms into a bird, its name is Peng!

It is none other than the Kunpeng!

At this moment, although it possesses the transformations of Kun and Peng, it only has the most primitive instincts in its eyes and has not yet developed intelligence.

Upon seeing this, the Five Elements Ancestor's eyes were filled with longing and determination.

"Those individuals all gained strength and fortune by taking on disciples. With such profound foundations, they are certainly worthy to be my disciples!"

The Black Tortoise of the North Sea possesses the purest essence of water and earth, while the Kunpeng of the Northern Darkness contains the laws of water and wind, both complementing each other's five great paths.

The moment the Five Elements Ancestor had the idea of ​​taking on a disciple, he acted without hesitation, releasing the Five Elements Daoist essence, which transformed into two streams of light, heading towards the Black Tortoise and the Kunpeng respectively!

A streak of light flashed across the void and suddenly entered the body of the Black Tortoise of the North Sea.

But there was no movement, like raindrops falling into the sea without creating the slightest ripple.

Not to mention helping it transform into a Dao body, it couldn't even awaken it from its slumber!

"How...how is this possible?"

The Five Elements Ancestor frowned, finding it hard to believe.

After carefully sensing it, his Dao heart sank.

The Five Elements have been clarified, not because his enlightenment power is ineffective, but because compared to the vast and enormous body of the North Sea Black Tortoise, his Five Elements power is far too weak!

Unless one's cultivation reaches the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal, one may not be able to try again.

This proves it.

The sleeping North Sea Black Tortoise had no master-disciple relationship with him at all. On the contrary, because his physical body was too huge and terrifying, they could only be friends as equals!

They cannot become master and disciple, nor can they awaken a friendship.

I feel powerless, so utterly powerless!

Suppressing his disappointment, the Five Elements Ancestor immediately turned his gaze to Kunpeng.

Although the Kunpeng's body was enormous, it was not as terrifying as the North Sea Black Tortoise. After receiving the power of the Five Elements released by the Five Elements, it instantly merged with its original water and wind elements.

Visibly, the Kunpeng's body slowly began to shrink.

The roc's wings folded away, and after a burst of eerie blue light, it transformed into a humanoid form.

He appeared to be middle-aged, dressed in a dark blue robe, with a stern face and a hint of arrogance between his brows.

The Kunpeng transformed into a form with the cultivation level of a mid-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal.

As he transformed, he looked at the Five Elements Ancestor who had approached him. A hint of wariness flashed in his eyes, and he realized that it was the person in front of him who had helped him transform.

However, he did not directly become an apprentice, but instead stared longingly at the Five Elements Ancestor.

The Five Elements Ancestor's eyes narrowed slightly, naturally noticing the wariness in Kunpeng's eyes.

Having lived through countless eons, he understood it at a glance.

Even if this Kunpeng cannot become the strongest in the prehistoric world in the future, he will definitely be able to pass on his lineage and survive the great calamity without any problem!

Such a nature is just like his.

Therefore, the Five Elements Demon God spoke in a deep voice:

"I am the Ancestor of the Five Elements. I observe that you possess the power of water and wind, indicating an affinity with my Great Dao of the Five Elements. Would you be willing to become my disciple?"

Kunpeng remained silent for a moment. Although he had only recently developed intelligence, his instincts told him that the person before him was far more powerful than him, and that the path he was passing on was in harmony with his own.

Then, a firm look appeared in his eyes, and he said:

"Disciple Kunpeng greets Master."

The Five Elements Ancestor nodded in satisfaction, then with a wave of his hand, he handed over the Water Control Flag.

"Since you are my disciple, you must have a magical treasure by your side. I have just acquired this treasure and I will bestow it upon you."

"This disciple thanks Master."

Kunpeng was overjoyed and accepted the top-grade spiritual treasure, then his eyes lit up and he said:

"Reporting to Master, I also possess a spiritual treasure called the Northern Underworld Palace, which lies at the bottom of the Northern Underworld."

"oh?"

Kunpeng's words startled the Five Elements Ancestor.

Because in his perception, he did not detect any other magical treasures beneath the Northern Sea.

This only proves that the Northern Underworld Palace is destined to be with this disciple, but not with him!

Kunpeng bowed respectfully.

"Master, the bottom of the Northern Sea is extremely cold and can block the spiritual senses of living beings. Although I discovered this treasure before, I could not obtain it because I have no intelligence. Please accompany me, Master."

"Alright."

Upon receiving the Five Elements Ancestor's response, Kunpeng suddenly transformed into its true form and invited its master to sit upon it. Then, in its Kun body, it submerged into the Northern Dark Abyss...

The Northern Underworld Palace will naturally become the Demon Master's Palace in the future.

It is a palace-type, immovable, top-grade innate spiritual treasure, eternally guarding the Northern Darkness!

After the master and disciple infiltrated the Abyss of the Northern Sea, the "sleeping" Northern Sea Black Tortoise slightly opened its eyes.

"I cannot take human form by my own power, nor can the power of the demon god help me... Why?"

"I was born even earlier than the White Tiger, and we are both primordial beings, yet like the ferocious beast, I cannot transform into human form. Why is that?"

Unable to achieve its goal, the North Sea Black Tortoise could only close its eyes again and fall into a deep sleep.

On top of its massive head, a tiny, snake-like, tortoise-like creature lay leisurely, blinking its bewildered eyes.

"Transformation?"

"Why did Ancestor insist on transforming into that form? Brother Xuanqing, is it because our Xuan Turtle Body is not strong enough?"

To the side stood a black tortoise several times larger than itself, patiently recounting its story.

"Brother, that form is the physical body of the great god Pangu. We, the beings of the primordial world, can only achieve enlightenment and prove the Dao faster through this body, and this body is in accordance with the laws of the Dao..."

After listening, the little black tortoise seemed to understand something, and then spoke in a low voice:

"So that's how it is! Then I also want to transform into human form, and I want to help the Ancestor transform!"

"By the way, brother, since that person didn't help our ancestor successfully transform into human form, are there any beings in the primordial world more powerful than him?"

The moment these words were spoken, the North Sea Black Tortoise, which had just closed its eyes, suddenly opened them!

At this moment, its eyes were filled with excitement and agitation, and the earth on its back trembled!

It promptly sent a telepathic message to the little black tortoise.

"Little Xuanwu, you and all the Xuanwu of my Xuanwu clan, quickly go to Buzhou... no!"

"This should be your own doing, to go to Longevity Mountain and seek the method for transforming yourself!"

Little Xuanwu was taken aback by the sound.

"Uh... Ancestor, am I the only tortoise going to Longevity Mountain?"

"Yes, just you, you turtle!"

Little Xuanwu: (╥﹏╥) Climbed from Beiming Mountain to Wanshou Mountain?

You'll die!
