Chapter 2051 - 1548-1549: Without Eradicating Good and Evil in Human Hearts, the Sky Cannot Be Restored

On Wudang Mountain, the elongated clouds were illuminated by a massive blood-colored Tai Chi, akin to a fiery blaze, attracting immense Heaven and Earth Power, and emitting waves of formidable Dragon Power.

The entire sky’s cloud layers transformed dramatically; the stacked cloud sea seemed like a dome of a colossal building, resembling a Celestial Palace, with undulating mist patterns intricately carved into flying birds and beasts.

"Roar!—"

Suddenly, a heart-shaking deep roar resonated from the blood-colored Tai Chi, dense blood light gradually coalesced into a magnificent giant entity, swiftly taking shape, causing the surrounding magnetic fields to become chaotic, with lightning and thunder, striking awe in the soul.

"What is... that?"

On Wudang Golden Summit, Mu Dao Ren, Song Yuanqiao, and other natives all gazed with trembling expressions at the blood-colored giant appearing above Ascension Cliff, clearly feeling the terrifying coercion emanating from that direction.

They had never witnessed such a frightful momentum.

They even felt a sense of horror, as if looking at not a terrifying creature, but a scorching sun burning their souls, causing Mu Dao Ren and the Yin Yang Two Gods to experience bouts of dizziness and powerless pain.

It was thus for them, and even more intense for all the players on Wudang Mountain; most players had already succumbed to intense dizziness, weakness, shock, and other negative states, with some even passing out on the spot.

Suddenly, the blood-colored Tai Chi transitioned to black, not emitting any evil aura, instead inducing a clear and comfortable sensation akin to being refreshed by spring water, quickly retracting the oppressive coercion.

"Roar!!—"

The black Tai Chi abruptly shattered like breaking through cloud mist, with a pitch-black snake head adorned with dragon horns swiftly emerging from the haze, followed by an enormous turtle body thick as a mountain and primitively ancient, instantly blocking the sunlight, casting Wudang Mountain in the shadow of its massive form.

"Heavens!—"

"Is that... a mountain-sized turtle? No, it’s Xuanwu, the manifestation of the Xuanwu Emperor!"

"It seems like a Dragon Turtle! The Dragon Turtle has emerged from Wudang Mountain? The Fire Phoenix has been resurrected from Divine Iron City! This truly is the rise of dragons and serpents, something earth-shattering is happening."

"Quick, quick, quick, the Dragon Turtle has emerged, we Wudang players are blessed, the world-class task ’Finding Dragon Turtle’s Trail’ issued by the Grandmaster can be completed."

"Gosh, I’ve not followed that task closely, and it ended ahead of schedule?"

"This world-class task concluded and settled right after Phoenix’s Nirvana Resurrection, you’re just realizing now? Looks like the Grandmaster knew the Dragon Turtle would emerge beforehand."

"The Grandmaster personally resurrected the Phoenix, searched for the Dragon Turtle for so long, and now even the Dragon Turtle has emerged, along with the Grandmaster’s previous revival of the Azure Dragon and Fire Qilin, my word? What grand, earth-shattering task is the Grandmaster gathering the Four Spirits for?"

"It’s better not to pry into such societal matters, for now let’s quietly wait and see."

Rumble!—

At this moment, deep rumblings echoed through the sky, like a massive stone roller passing by, and after the enormous shadow swept overhead, sunlight shone down again, with a suffocating oppressive momentum slowly receding.

Everyone tilted their heads, shock and awe evident as they watched the Dragon Turtle, comparable to a mountain, gradually drift away from Wudang, its speed increasing and ascending further into the clouds and mist, as if treating the sky as an ocean, transforming into a colossal Roc and swiftly vanishing into the distance, leaving only the clouds trailing its majestic form painted in a layer of rosy glow.

At this time, people began to notice three solitary figures left on Ascension Cliff, two lying supine on the ground, and another standing calmly on Ascension Rock, as if leisurely observing the distant serene cloud sea and colorful rosy glow reflections, seeming deeply drawn to the infinitely beautiful mountain landscape, gazing leisurely into the distance.

"Master!"

Song Yuanqiao and others’ expressions abruptly changed, their hearts skipped a beat, instinctively feeling something amiss, they urgently exercised movement technique to rush down the mountain, heading straight towards Ascension Cliff.

...

Under a sky resembling a fiery cloud, Jiang Dali withdrew from Jianghu Forum, abruptly turned around to gaze towards Wudang’s direction in the south, sensing the towering and immense Qi Mechanism emanating from the Dragon Turtle, a complex expression emerging on his handsome face.

"Master Zhang... Elder Xiao..."

Just moments ago, he suddenly sensed the Dragon Turtle’s aura, thus he entered Jianghu Forum to check the situation on Wudang Mountain, only then did he realize the Dragon Turtle had emerged from Wudang.

However, players were some distance from Ascension Cliff, none captured the situation on Ascension Cliff, and the specifics of the Dragon Turtle’s birth remained unknown.

Yet, Jiang Dali merely pieced together the players’ video footage and the sense of Heaven and Earth Qi Mechanism, already vaguely guessing the specific process of the Dragon Turtle’s emergence.

Now he anticipates it likely was Zhang Sanfeng and Xiao Sanxiao sacrificing themselves to resurrect the Dragon Turtle, for this pair’s Qi Mechanisms have entirely vanished from the world...

Only he truly cannot fathom why Zhang Sanfeng needed to sacrifice for the Dragon Turtle’s resurrection.

As Xiao Sanxiao sacrificed himself, it was primarily because of the Dragon Turtle Essence Blood within him, how Zhang Sanfeng ties into Dragon Turtle remains mysterious.

Recalling the past when Zhang Sanfeng remained silent numerous times, Jiang Dali sighed inwardly, his gaze returning to a calm resolute.

With things having reached this point, and the old friends gone, he can only resolve to complete unfinished tasks, to deliver a perfect account to all who sacrificed.
