Chapter 411: The Mutation of the Divine Turtle True Spirit! Clues to a Special Living Being!

Spiritual Array Masters hold a very high status in the Great Thousand World.

In Chu Yang's view, the most desirable aspect of a spiritual array is the ability to infinitely amplify the power of the array through spiritual seals.

However, in his eyes, the many arrays of the Great Thousand World are truly somewhat crude; they simply cannot be mentioned in the same breath as the arrays of the Immortal Xia world.

Yet, under the reinforcement of spiritual arrays, the spiritual arrays constructed from these crude arrays possess powerful might.

Therefore, Chu Yang planned to combine the array principles of the Immortal Xia world with the principles of spiritual arrays.

Since a "crude framework" plus "exquisite interior" can exert powerful might,

then what level would be reached if it were "externally elegant and internally magnificent"? However, the most critical problem lies in the principles of the Immortal Xia world's arrays.

Wanting to combine the two is like solving a math problem; one needs to summarize the formulas of both and then substitute them into each other.

But the arrays of the Immortal Xia world have no "formulas" to speak of, so Chu Yang could only conduct a comprehensive analysis through Pan Gu and then try his best to reconstruct "simulated formulas."

This is a difficult problem for Chu Yang, and it is the same for Pan Gu.

As early as when he first entered the Great Thousand World and first came into contact with the path of spiritual arrays, Chu Yang had already begun to prepare for this matter.

But until now, Pan Gu is still working hard on it...

Hearing Chu Yang's question, Pan Gu replied: "Some shallow arrays have already been combined with spiritual array principles, and two sets of systems have been constructed respectively."

"One of them is the spiritual array system, which is applicable to all Spiritual Array Masters."

"The other one is based on the Master's Source Qi, combining the advantages of spiritual arrays and arrays to maximize the might."

"However, some intermediate and advanced arrays still require more time to analyze."

Chu Yang smiled and said: "No rush, even if you slow down the speed, don't make any mistakes for me."

"And even the power of primary arrays is enough to threaten Saint Product powerhouses in this Great Thousand World!"

Chu Yang does not need to specifically cultivate the path of spiritual arrays because he possesses Pan Gu, which gives him a huge advantage even compared to those powerful Spiritual Array Masters.

That is, no pre-preparation is needed; he can form an array instantly! One must know that even a Saint Product Grandmaster of the spiritual array path needs a certain amount of time to set up a Saint Product grand array, though this time is very short, perhaps only a few breaths.

Chu Yang is different; Pan Gu can complete everything for him, and he only needs to condense enough "Source Seals" to activate the grand array.

He and Pan Gu are one, their minds connected, so there is no need to worry about mistakes.

Pan Gu can rely on its computing core and, with Chu Yang's permission, mobilize his power to set up an array instantly.

As Chu Yang's strength continues to grow, the benefits of the Pan Gu spiritual consciousness, transformed from the Bodhi Ancient Tree's tree spirit, merging with his frontal bone are gradually manifesting.

Among the various arrays of the Immortal Xia world, most are inclined toward functionality; purely offensive arrays are relatively few, and almost all of them are advanced arrays.

Fortunately, Chu Yang's purpose in studying spiritual arrays is not just for dealing with enemies.

In the Great Thousand World, with his current strength, he does not need to rely too much on arrays.

Delving into spiritual arrays is entirely a precaution.

After all, no one knows which world will be the next one connected to the Soul Palace.

If it happens to be some Great Fantasy world with outrageously high combat power, with their current strength, they would truly be somewhat inadequate.

The process of the Divine Turtle gathering spirits went smoothly, taking only a little over a month.

However, what made Chu Yang somewhat surprised was that the Divine Turtle True Spirit did not, as he had expected, directly complete its fifth evolution, or even leave the other three major true spirits behind to break through the sixth level and reach the Saint Product realm.

The evolution progress bar of the Divine Turtle True Spirit remained at about seventy percent of the fifth level, with no significant growth.

But the main body of the Divine Turtle True Spirit had already undergone earth-shaking changes.

The current Divine Turtle True Spirit is less like a divine turtle and more like the legendary Xuanwu.

The black main body of the divine turtle and the jade-white spiritual snake coiled together; the two looked somewhat incompatible, yet they gave people a sense of being inseparable.

Although the Divine Turtle's eyes were much more lively, clearly having birthed spiritual wisdom, they gave people a feeling of not being very smart, which reminded Chu Yang of a certain sled dog known for its high looks and low IQ.

Conversely, the spiritual snake's pair of eyes were deep and wise, and the look it gave Chu Yang was extremely complex.

Luo Shen!

Although Chu Yang was surprised, he could guess the reason for this change in the Divine Turtle True Spirit.

The combination of the Divine Turtle and the remnant soul of Luo Shen allowed it to successfully gather spirits.

The origin of the Luo River and the origin power of Luo Shen's Sovereign Sea caused the Divine Turtle True Spirit to undergo a transformation in essence.

This is similar to some kind of genetic mutation, but at least it is developing in a good direction.

"You lied to me?" A cold and ethereal voice sounded, carrying a trace of grievance.

Chu Yang blinked and spread his hands: "Senior Luo Shen, this is slander!"

"Of the two conditions I proposed earlier, helping you resurrect has already been done, and in the future, the Outer Evil Tribe will inevitably be wiped out."

"In this way, how could it be lying to you?"

The spiritual snake lowered its head to look at the divine turtle, then looked at its own body. "This is what you call resurrection?"

"Letting me be your beast pet?"

Although she said it this way, her tone was more like a complaint.

From the moment she completely merged with the Divine Turtle True Spirit, whether Luo Shen was willing to admit it or not, Chu Yang had become her master, and an inseparable one at that.

Because the Four Saint True Spirits are inherently a part of Chu Yang; although they have now each transformed into a physical entity, and three of them possess spiritual wisdom, they still exist relying on Chu Yang.

Once Chu Yang falls, they will also vanish into smoke.

It is precisely because of this that the Four Saint True Spirits all have a closeness and submission to Chu Yang that stems from their bloodline and soul.

Luo Shen sighed and said: "Forget it, since I have lived a new life, let's say goodbye to everything in the past!"

As the voice fell, a faint light suddenly radiated from the spiritual snake, and then its figure changed, transforming into a stunningly beautiful woman in a white dress.

The woman bowed gracefully to Chu Yang: "Master..."

Looking at Luo Shen on the back of the divine turtle, Chu Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart: she is indeed worthy of being the former number one beauty of the Great Immortal World!

Chu Yang rubbed his chin, thought for a moment, and then said: "Your situation is relatively special, different from Ao Ting and Huo Ling, relatively more independent."

"And your soul power is very strong, making you more suitable for the path of spiritual arrays."

After finishing, he directly had Pan Gu transmit all kinds of spiritual array knowledge, as well as primary spiritual arrays evolved through arrays, to Luo Shen all at once.

"After completing the fifth evolution, I will let Ao Ting and Huo Ling separate from you and me to travel the Great Thousand World on their own."

Chu Yang said softly: "With the Spirit Ascension Technique, you have almost no growth limit; to what extent you can evolve depends on your own ability."

Luo Shen nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Regarding the Qilin True Spirit condensing its origin and gathering spirits, perhaps I can help a little..." "Oh?" Chu Yang raised an eyebrow.

Ever since Ao Ting was born, he had realized that if he blindly relied on the Spirit Ascension Technique to make the Four Saint True Spirits evolve continuously, then no matter to what extent they evolved, they would ultimately just be "combat tools" in his hands.

After successfully gathering spirits, it means that the Four Saint True Spirits will possess independent consciousness and autonomous thinking, no longer needing him to be distracted to control them.

As the Source Martial Dharma Body condensed into a physical entity, it made the Four Saint True Spirits living beings in the true sense.

But there is still one crucial problem, and that is the origin!

The Four Saint True Spirits are a part of Chu Yang's body; even if they successfully gather spirits, even if they transform into physical entities, they still need to rely on his power.

In short, during the process of fighting, what is consumed is Chu Yang's Source Qi.

However, currently, the only one still at this stage is the Qilin True Spirit.

Ao Ting is the product of the Divine Dragon True Spirit merging with the mutated Nine Profound Golden Thunder; the Nine Profound Golden Thunder became his independent origin, so even without relying on Chu Yang's Source Qi, he possesses the ability to fight independently.

Huo Ling's origin is the Emperor Flame, while Luo Shen's origin is the product of the Luo River origin merging with her Sovereign Sea from before she died.

Compared to Huo Ling and Ao Ting, Luo Shen has an additional advantage, which is soul power.

As a former Saint Product peak powerhouse, even if it is a new soul condensed through remnant will, her soul power is also very strong, reaching the Immortal Product level.

And unlike the physical body and origin, she can autonomously cultivate soul power, thereby making her soul power stronger and stronger.

It is precisely because of this that Chu Yang let her walk the path of spiritual arrays.

Now that the Three Saint True Spirits have completed their essential transformation, only for the Qilin True Spirit is even Chu Yang somewhat at a loss.

The Qilin True Spirit has high adaptability; many special powers in the world can serve as its origin.

But Chu Yang has always preferred to go without rather than settle for something inferior, which led to him not liking weaker powers, and being unable to find ones that met his standards.

Luo Shen pondered and said: "As far as I know, when the Immortal Emperor was young, he once obtained a fortuitous encounter."

"This allowed him to walk an unusual path; when he was in the Divine Soul Realm, he did not refine the essence of a spirit beast, but instead used a secret method to gestate a special living being."

"As his cultivation improved, that living being also became stronger and stronger."

"Later on, even in my peak period before I died, I was no match for that living being."

Chu Yang narrowed his eyes, thoughtful, waiting for the rest.

Luo Shen continued: "That living being possessed the bloodline power of the Immortal Emperor, and combined with its own characteristics, it became an immortal and indestructible existence."

"However, as the Immortal Emperor fell, it also lost all its power, but I can be certain that it is still alive!"

"I am afraid that even the Heavenly Evil God cannot kill it in the true sense!"

Chu Yang nodded and said: "In that case, it is indeed quite compatible with the Qilin True Spirit."

"However, times have changed, so I suppose you probably don't know where it is, right?"

Luo Shen said with certainty: "If the Immortal Emperor has descendants in the world, they will definitely know the whereabouts of that living being!"

"And, that living being exists relying on the Immortal Emperor, similar to the relationship between us."

"So I suppose it will not be far from the place where the Immortal Emperor fell!"

Chu Yang's eyes lit up; if he were to search for a special living being that almost no one had heard of in the vast Great Thousand World, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

But since there is a clear clue, things will be much easier.

Putting away his thoughts, Chu Yang smiled and said: "Let's go! Let's go meet the Western Heaven Battle Emperor!"

"Relying on the continent power of the Western Heaven Continent, I suppose it can allow you to complete the fifth evolution in one fell swoop."

Relying solely on the continent power of one continent, it is naturally impossible for the Four Saint True Spirits to directly complete an evolution.

But the progress of the fifth level of the Spirit Ascension Technique had already reached seventy percent, and now it only lacked the final push.

The continent power accumulated by the Western Heaven Continent for hundreds of years is naturally enough.

Luo Shen nodded gently, then transformed into a stream of light and directly submerged into Chu Yang's dantian.

Chu Yang, whose mind was connected with her, knew that Luo Shen did not intend to face her descendants in her current appearance.

However, he guessed that after the Four Saint True Spirits completed their fifth evolution, when the Spirit Ascension Technique stepped into the sixth level, they would very likely possess the means to transform.

After all, in the Douqi Continent, magical beasts at the Dou Zong realm can transform; although the Four Saint True Spirits are special, if they still cannot transform after reaching the Saint Product realm, that would truly be somewhat unreasonable...

Chu Yang left the underground world; the lake formed by the Luo Shen Sovereign Sea still existed, and a portion of the Luo River origin also remained.

However, compared to before, both were much weaker, as most of their power had merged into the Divine Turtle True Spirit.

This was clearly done by Luo Shen deliberately; after all, she had to leave some blessings for her descendants.

Ever since Chu Yang entered the Luo River, Luo Qingyun had been constantly monitoring the situation of the Luo River.

It just so happened that he was guarding his daughter at the city gate, which could be considered killing two birds with one stone.

He took Chu Yang's words to heart because he had already concluded that the young powerhouse was very likely an existence even more powerful than the Western Heaven Battle Emperor.

The words and actions of such a person would not be aimless.

Since Chu Yang had said that his entry into the Luo River might cause damage to the Luo River's origin, Luo Qingyun was naturally somewhat nervous.

However, more than a month had passed, and the Luo River had remained calm and peaceful, with no abnormalities, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

But an incident that happened three days ago made him worried again.

The Luo Shen Festival! For every member of the Luo Shen Clan who performs the Luo Shen Festival, as long as they successfully resonate with the Luo River, the Luo River will present various different visions.

In a sense, these visions can be considered the ancestor Luo Shen's assessment of the talent of these descendants.

Three days ago, when a young member of the royal lineage performed the Luo Shen Festival, although the Luo River presented a vision, that vision was extremely illusory, as if it were lacking in power.

This was something that had never happened before, and Luo Qingyun was very clear that this had nothing to do with that descendant, but that something was wrong with the Luo River!

This made him inevitably think of Chu Yang, and at the same time, he began to feel nervous.

Standing on the banks of the Luo River, Luo Qingyun looked at the river surface, which was as gorgeous as a starry sky, feeling somewhat distressed for a moment.

Although he had already prepared for the worst, he was somewhat worried: if something really went wrong with the Luo River, even leading to the inability to complete the Luo Shen Festival in the future, where would their Luo Shen Clan go?

Just at this moment, the water surface suddenly parted, and a figure stepped out from the waves, as if taking a leisurely stroll.

The two looked at each other, Luo Qingyun was slightly stunned, then hurriedly cupped his hands and saluted: "Little friend... what a coincidence..."

He had spoken righteously before, telling the other party to go ahead and do whatever they wanted, but in the end, he had come to check the situation of the Luo River every day, feeling nervous.

Now that he had been caught red-handed by Chu Yang, Luo Qingyun was truly somewhat embarrassed... (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 412 =====
