Chapter 729

What Xiao Feng said is indeed true, but the primordial inheritance requires waiting until nearly 200 days later, when the Chaos Tree enters its growth period, before there is a chance to open again.

Therefore, there's no need to explain in too much detail now; as long as we can convince the Overlord Turtle, that's enough.

"The ancient legacy…… venerable ones, primordial gods…… what distant realms."

The Overlord Turtle let out a low, sighing sound.

She asked, "Adventurer, you…… aren't deceiving me, are you?"

Xiao Feng raised three fingers, solemnly saying, "Creator God as witness, if these words are false, Xiao Feng is willing to suffer heavenly punishment!"

"Good! Then I believe you!" Upon hearing this, the Overlord Turtle finally believed him.

Afterwards, without seeing her move, a huge turtle egg flew out of the nest, heading toward Xiao Feng and the others.

"I hope you treat my child well. If you get the chance, you can bring him to Spirit Turtle Island near the Giant Elephant God Nation to see me." The Overlord Turtle instructed.

Li Li was a bit excited, quickly catching the ghost egg with both hands, and earnestly replied, "Don't worry, Overlord Turtle boss, I will surely raise your child well! When we become stronger later, we'll go to Spirit Turtle Island to show you our progress!"

"Good, may it be so." The Overlord Turtle responded and said no more.

Old Li also harvested a fourth‑rank spirit beast egg, its quality at least on par with Old Zhang's and Xing Yun Miao's, and there's even a one‑in‑twenty chance it hatches into a fifth‑rank spirit beast!

Half of the six‑person mission is done; next up are Xiao Feng himself, Mang Mei, and Dun Dun.

"It's rare to meet an easygoing chief god," Xiao Feng couldn't help asking before leaving, "Overlord Turtle sis, do you know where on Nine‑Color Island we can find agile‑type and damage‑dealing‑type spirit beasts? And…… where does the strongest spirit beast here live?"

Relying solely on our own slow search would waste time, and we might not even find the best ones.

But by consulting, we could greatly increase the efficiency of finding spirit beasts!

The Overlord Turtle replied, "Nine‑Color Island is vast; I only came recently and don't know much. If you want to find more lively spirit beasts, you can go to the white fragrant grass area behind these mountains, where a chief‑god spirit deer lives—strong in strength and gentle in temperament."

The white area, spirit deer……

Xiao Feng noted it down, nodded, and said, "Okay, thanks for the info; then we won't bother you further."

Having said that, he led the group straight through the purple zone and flew toward the white area.

It took nearly three hours of running to get there.

Mainly because there are too many surface creatures, we constantly run into high‑level

High‑level gods, title gods and the like—so many powerful beings that even title gods seem worthless.

Moreover, Xiao Feng didn't come here to kill monsters, so each time he has to linger a while before leaving, which somewhat affects speed.

After great effort arriving at the white area the Overlord Turtle mentioned, Xiao Feng and the others immediately caught a whiff of floral fragrance.

Ahead, mountains and fields were blanketed with white flowers, exuding an enchanting aroma.

Those little white flowers are also medicinal herbs, but not for restoring mana; they are a raw material for a hallucinogenic potion—when the medicine bottle is thrown and explodes, the released mist can cause people to hallucinate.

As the main ingredient, the little white flowers naturally have this effect; recklessly entering this area makes it easy to become lost and unable to find a way out.

However, if one prepares in advance and uses divine origin power to prop up a spiritual barrier, this effect can be prevented.

Xiao Feng rode the wind, his origin‑attribute divine power shielding himself and his friends from the hallucinogenic effect of the flower scent.

Skimming low over the white flower sea, the airflow from their flight lifted the petals, and white petals danced along the way, looking extremely beautiful.

"What a wonderful place; I really wish I could live here~"

Dun Dun said somewhat intoxicatedly.

Xiao Feng laughed, "Sure, you can live here—breathing hallucinogenic flower scent every day, having daydreams, you'd definitely be happy!"

"Then I'll definitely daydream about flattening all of you!" Dun Dun, stung by the teasing, shot back fiercely.

"Well, you know it's just a daydream—it could never happen anyway." Xiao Feng said with a tone full of "you can't".

Loli T felt hurt and quickly hugged her beloved big‑breasted mom seeking comfort.

After a while, the "gentle spirit deer" the Overlord Turtle mentioned appeared not far away.

It was a pure snow‑white creature, whiter than moonlight, a white celestial deer.

She walked on air, graceful in posture, not like a wild beast but like a noble‑born fairy.

The spirit deer is female, hornless, with a much smaller spirit deer following behind—estimated to be less than two weeks old yet already able to fly, showing strong spirituality!

"Wow, what a beautiful celestial deer!" Dun Dun couldn't help exclaiming, stunned by the white spirit deer's looks.

Even the usually silent Mang Mei showed a hint of astonishment, unable to hide her inner joy.

Seeing how much they liked it, Xiao Feng felt this spirit deer must be secured for them as much as possible.

However, doing this still requires going through the spirit deer mother's

"Consent is needed; otherwise, if we seize it by force, the fawn's loyalty will be low, and it might even run away!"

Xiao Feng first checked the spirit deer mother's attributes.

【Divine Deer of Light (Enlightened Law)】

Level: 600 (Lesser Chief God)

HP: Unfathomable

Note: The embodiment of light and goodness.

Then he checked the fawn's attributes.

【Divine Deer of Light (Capturable)】

Level: 20 (Newborn)

HP: 2,600,000/2,600,000

Note: Fourth‑rank spirit beast, can be tamed as a mount.

Its rank remains fourth‑rank, and it can grow to the peak of a lesser chief god, that is level 650.

For Mang Mei, this is a great help.

Moreover, this elegant divine deer naturally matches Mang Mei's archer profession—riding the divine deer to shoot arrows, opening an elf's glowing‑eye vision, plus her pretty face and tall figure… the scene is practically an elf princess come to life!

"Um… Divine Deer big sis, would you mind letting your baby follow us for cultivation?" Xiao Feng made this rather awkward opening line.

The elegant white divine deer looked at him and chuckled, saying: "Young adventurer, please don't entertain such dangerous thoughts. I am, after all, a chief deity; if you anger me, you will suffer greatly."

Although the words carried a threat, they were spoken with such gentleness.

Truly a benevolent Light Divine Deer!

Given her nature, we absolutely cannot be rough with her; we should try to persuade her, and if that fails, we'll seek another approach and look for a different spirit beast.

"It's like this, actually..."

Xiao Feng repeated the words he had just said to the Overlord Turtle, thinking they could move the divine deer.

But the Light Divine Deer remained unmoved; after listening, it replied: "No matter how grand your future may be, to me it is of no consequence. I have only this one child, and ensuring its happiness is what matters most."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng and the others finally realized the crux of the matter.

The Overlord Turtle lays a clutch of over ten eggs, while the Light Divine Deer gives birth to only a single offspring!

The stakes are not comparable!

Trying to steal someone's only child won't work with mere boasting!

"Then... what would count as happiness?" asked Mang Mei, who had hardly spoken up until now.
