Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 4207: Strange change of the tortoise shell

Editor: Henyee Translations

This tortoise shell was a little amazing, because it could not be stored into a Spatial Tool.

But aside from that, this thing could not be any more ordinary.

And now, it was actually heating up?

‘What? Are you showing off now?’

Ling Han pulled open his clothes a little. He discovered that the tortoise shell wasn’t just hot, but the patterns on the back of the tortoise shell were also glowing slightly, but very weakly, like fireflies.

These patterns weren’t all that amazing, and they were secretly aligned with the Dao of heaven and earth and the like. If it weren’t for the fact that it couldn’t be stored into a Spatial Spirit Tool, this thing would definitely have been thrown away immediately.

Why did the tortoise shell glow and heat up? Was there no reason, or… had it been triggered by something?

Ling Han’s eyes swept over the place, but there were stalls everywhere, filled with a dazzling array of items. If it was triggered by one of the items here, the range of choice was still quite wide.

“Hey, have you gone stupid?” Behind him, someone rebuked harshly.

Ling Han turned around to take a look. There were four young people here, and they were two men and two women respectively. He smiled faintly, “What do you want?”

“You threw our Senior Brother Liu out, so could it be that you want to pretend that nothing happened?” one of the young girls rebuked. She had a ponytail, and was dressed in a long green dress. Her skin was very fair.

Ling Han gave an ‘oh’, and asked, “The guy that smacked me with his hand just now?”

F***, you are still playing the fool at a time like this?

“Brat, we are the Holy Land of Qingxuan!” A man interrupted. He was dressed in a tight-fitting suit of blue, his expression arrogant.

Ling Han smiled faintly. These four people were only in the Core Formation Tier, and in his eyes, they weren’t even worthy of being his opponents. “That was just a misunderstanding. Someone patted my shoulder, and I naturally reacted.”

“All right, we believe that this is a misunderstanding. Pay compensation!” the man in blue said.

“Senior Brother Ma!” The remaining three turned to look at the man in blue at the same time, disagreement written all over their faces.

How could this be resolved with money?

The man in the tight-fitting blue suit pressed down his hand. They were all in the Core Formation Tier, while Ling Han was in the True Self Tier. They could only use the might of the Holy Land to intimidate him. It was already good enough for him to pay some compensation. How could it be that they could give him a good beating?

Ling Han smiled, took out a few Dao Stones and handed them over. He was not in the mood to tangle with these people now.

He didn’t care if the other party was satisfied or not. In any case, he was doing as he pleased. If they continued to pester him, he wouldn’t mind using force to resolve the problem.

The man in blue looked at the five Dao Stones in his hands, his expression slightly dark.

‘That’s all? Are you dismissing a beggar?’

“Stay here and keep an eye on him. Report his whereabouts at any time. I’ll go back and ask Uncle Zhou for help,” he transmitted a message through divine sense to his Junior Brother and Junior Sisters.

The three of them were slightly hesitant. This was only a small matter; was there any need to alert the others in the sect?

“He’s at the True Self Tier, and we’re no match for him,” the man in blue said. “Keep an eye on him!”

After saying this, he picked up Senior Brother Liu, who was at the side of the road, and strode off.

There was nothing else that could be done, so the three people with the ponytails could only do as he said.

Ling Han smiled faintly. He was someone who had a halo of trouble, and would actually still cause trouble in this kind of situation. Yi, didn’t he still have the True Dragon of Fortune? Had it been eaten by a dog?

(The large black dog: “…”)

He didn’t care. After walking back and forth a few times and confirming that something here had triggered the tortoise shell, he began to search the various stalls.

Found it.

It was too obvious, because he had discovered another tortoise shell.

This was an incomplete tortoise shell, and judging from the damaged edges, the two should be a complete piece.

What a coincidence. A tortoise shell that he had obtained in the Netherworld, and he had actually pieced it together here.

Was this the effect of his luck?

He stretched out a hand to grab the tortoise shell, then asked, “Boss, how much is this?”

He did not go in a roundabout manner, and deliberately chose other things, then very casually bought the tortoise shell as well.

With his current strength and status as a Buddha Son, there was already no need for him to do so.

“This?” The stall keeper faltered for a moment. He had picked this thing up, but looking at the interesting veined patterns on the tortoise shell, it had also become part of his collection, but he had not been able to sell it all this while.

It could not be helped. There was really nothing special about this at all. Whoever bought it would be an idiot.

However, why did this tortoise shell seem to be glowing now?

“100 Dao Stones.” He placed a high bid. It was rare for someone to ask, so he naturally had to take advantage of the opening to make a killing.

Ling Han smiled, took out a hundred Dao Stones and tossed them over, “Here, take them.”

Seeing how straightforward Ling Han was, the stall keeper was naturally filled with extreme regret. Obviously, Ling Han very much wanted this tortoise shell, and he was completely capable of offering a higher price.

Ling Han was overjoyed. Previously, he had stowed away the tortoise shell on a whim. Though he could not store it into a Spatial Spirit Tool, it was no trouble to bring it with him. Of course, he still had a sliver of hope in his heart. One day, he would be able to discover the true use of the tortoise shell.

After all, it was all. Being unable to store it into a Spatial Spirit Tool could also be considered a peculiarity.

He had not thought that he would be able to piece the tortoise shell back together so quickly. Perhaps, he would be able to immediately discover its peculiarity — it was also possible that after this piece was pieced back together, it would still be an ordinary tortoise shell.

Let’s go back.

He walked back, yet discovered that the three people with ponytails were actually following him. He revealed a smil. They were keeping an eye on him; had they not given up yet?

Fine, I’m in a good mood, so I’ll play with you guys.

Ling Han was completely capable of using the Star Step to flee, instantly traveling millions and millions of miles away, but now, he was neither too fast nor too slow.

After walking for a while, he had already arrived at the inn where he was resting. He turned around, and asked, “Why haven’t your people come yet? I’ve already arrived at my destination?”

The three people with the ponytails were all very embarrassed, and none of them spoke.

However, a look of delight immediately appeared on their faces, “Uncle Zhou and Senior Brother Ma are here!”

Oh, he had brought out reinforcements?

Ling Han stood with his hands crossed behind his back, waiting quietly.

In a short while, two figures flew over.

Yi?

When he saw one of them, Ling Han instantly revealed a strange expression.

Xiu, xiu! The two of them descended, and the man in blue immediately pointed at Ling Han and said, “Uncle Zhou, it was this guy who beat Senior Brother Liu to the point that he’s still unconscious!”

Uncle Zhou immediately stepped out, heading towards Ling Han.

The man in blue sneered. Though this Uncle Zhou had entered the sect later than him, his natural talent in martial arts was too shocking. He had practically broken through to the True Self Tier with an overwhelming speed, and even the Dao Child of the present generation was dumbfounded.

By now, the higher-ups of the Holy Land of Qingxuan had already thought of switching to another Dao Child. However, this involved a very complicated internal power struggle, and was not something that could be decided in a short while.

And in order to ensure the safety of this Uncle Zhou, the Holy Land finally sent him out, to prevent him from being plotted against by the people supporting the original Dao Child.

If he could develop a good relationship with this Uncle Zhou, who knows, he may be able to achieve meteoric success in future.

Just as he was pondering, Uncle Zhou had already walked in front of Ling Han.

Beat, beat him to death!

Uncle Zhou spread open his arms. Yi, what kind of technique was this? Among the celestial techniques of the Holy Land, there wasn’t a celestial technique with such a gesture.

‘F*ck!’

The eyes of the man in blue immediately widened. That was because Uncle Zhou had not spread out his arms to attack, but was rather embracing Ling Han.

“Senior Zhou!” Ling Han laughed loudly. This Uncle Zhou was Zhou Heng.
