Capítulo 1874: Chapter 1875 Black Tortoise Immortal Core

“You really don’t know?”

Yang Junmo was also puzzled, not understanding how Su Chengyu, who had already encountered two Immortal Cores, knew nothing about this matter.

“The Vermilion Bird Immortal Core situation is special. I hadn’t investigated it deeply before it fled. It wasn’t discovered in the burial ground at all. At that time, I didn’t pay much attention and didn’t delve further. But this time…”

Su Chengyu briefly recounted the events that took place in the White Tiger Tribe to Yang Junmo.

Yang Junmo listened, astonished and in disbelief.

“Goodness, does the White Tiger really intend to cultivate these natives to develop another civilization in this world? How many millennia of accumulation does that take?”

Su Chengyu shook his head: “That remains unknown. In any case, he seems to have changed his mind, and you just weren’t aware of the unexpected afterward…”

“It should indeed be unexpected.”

Yang Junmo saw what Su Chengyu was worried about and gave him some reassurance.

“Your father indeed left a method for humans to absorb Divine Beast Immortal Cores.”

“Not mixed-blood?”

Yang Junmo shook his head and continued.

“Pure humans. However, the cost is severe; the consciousness of the Immortal Core will be completely destroyed, which is almost tantamount to making them give up their lives.”

“That indeed doesn’t sound like something he would do.”

Su Chengyu calmly opened his mouth.

The White Tiger Immortal Core itself wasn’t his match. Even if its power was transferred to someone else, they couldn’t surpass him, only add more trouble.

“You have quite a high opinion of that guy.”

Su Chengyu chuckled softly: “Not that high—a guy with different stances and boundaries. If I were to compare… like Long Xuan.”

Yang Junmo raised an eyebrow, instantly understanding Su Chengyu’s meaning.

Disregarding their stance, Yang Junmo also admired Long Xuan in his heart, though there were indeed things he couldn’t agree with Long Xuan on.

“If you’re sure it’s not the Immortal Core’s doing, then there are some clues here.”

Yang Junmo said, taking out the Black Tortoise Immortal Core he had recently acquired from his small opening.

Unlike the two Immortal Cores Su Chengyu had seen, this Black Tortoise Immortal Core was shrouded in a layer of black mist, isolating the core from the outside world.

“What is this?”

“I don’t know. When I found the place, there were no human survivors. After investigating everywhere, I found the burial ground, and this was the only thing I unearthed. If I hadn’t seen other Immortal Cores, I’d have doubted if this was what I was looking for.”

Su Chengyu spoke gravely. Looking at the strange black mist of unclear origin, he felt a slight sense of familiarity.

He was certain he had encountered something similar before, just unable to immediately connect them.

“It’s likely the work of an Earth Immortal, but it’s hard to determine who exactly. It seems others besides us have discovered this place. Fortunately, although it’s been confined, the power of the Immortal Core hasn’t been completely dispelled. It seems those people don’t want to directly destroy the Divine Beast Immortal Core.”

The Divine Beast Immortal Core is special and forcibly destroying it is indeed difficult. But if handed over to a Demon Emperor Level demon clan, they could refine it. Although the losses would be significant, it’s a method anyone could use.

“Oh yes, when I went over there, I found traces of people on the passage. Obviously, that group also discovered this thing.”

Su Chengyu exhaled deeply, rubbing his temples: “Bad news, one after the other. If it’s really an Earth Immortal…”

Halfway through his words, their eyes met, quickly exchanging understanding.

Yang Junmo spoke first: “You aren’t able too, right? In the Kunwu Realm, you were so domineering. Why can’t you just cross a boundary and fight an Earth Immortal now?”

Su Chengyu rolled his eyes, not even bothering to answer. He simply said.

“If it’s the worst-case scenario, fighting is not an option. With just the two of us, we can only create a chance to escape back.”

Yang Junmo blinked, puzzled. “Then what about the Immortal Cores? Are we just going to leave them?”

“Which is more important, the cores or our lives?”

Su Chengyu replied directly. He thought Yang Junmo would choose life without hesitation. However, in the next second.

“Life is very important, but aren’t these things important too? According to your father’s method, these four Divine Beast Immortal Cores are equivalent to four Earth Immortals.”

Hearing this, Su Chengyu looked up at Yang Junmo and asked.

“Did you use it?”

“No, I’m not completely confident. I don’t want to take the risk.”

“I know, yet we still consider so much. If an Earth Immortal is indeed behind this, we absolutely can’t handle it with our strength.”

Su Chengyu spoke resolutely, and Yang Junmo grew more puzzled, pondering before he asked.

“Have you really fought against an Earth Immortal?”

“Yes, when rescuing Nan Zhi, I faced an Earth Immortal alone, which is how I got injured and ended up here.”

“You actually had a go with an Earth Immortal after what I said? How was it? Is there a big gap?”

Su Chengyu remained silent for a moment before answering.

“A world of difference. In the face of an Earth Immortal, even our most sophisticated techniques seem clumsy. Only attacks containing the Heavenly Dao Breath might pose some threat to them. However…”

“If we don’t kill them, we’ll die.”

Su Chengyu smiled bitterly, but didn’t refute.

Theoretically, what Yang Junmo said wasn’t wrong, but only Su Chengyu knew that this possibility only exists in theory.

The Void Body simply cannot accumulate enough Heavenly Dao Breath to kill an Earth Immortal. Probably only unique existences like Yu Yanshu could achieve something similar.

The Heaven and Earth Breath does not exist within oneself.

“So what do we do now?”

Yang Junmo looked at the Black Tortoise Immortal Core in his hand, feeling it’s a hot potato even more.

“These four Immortal Cores are indeed precious, but they’re not essential for our return. Since this Primordial Land is a gateway to various realms, we just need to find a way home successfully. Other matters can be considered later.”

Hearing Su Chengyu’s plan, Yang Junmo was a bit surprised and asked, confused.

“Such a conservative plan? This doesn’t sound like you.”

Su Chengyu blinked and said: “I can take risks, but it depends on whether it’s worth it. These four Immortal Cores might have other special significance. But since we don’t know, there’s no need to think so much. As long as there’s life, there’s hope, right?”

Yang Junmo suddenly chuckled softly, reaching out to pat Su Chengyu’s shoulder: “I get it, you’re worried about the situation in the Capital City, aren’t you?”

“It’d be a lie to say I’m not. With no clues before, it was one thing. Now that the route home is potentially within reach, of course, I want to return as soon as possible.”

After speaking, Su Chengyu’s gaze fell on the Black Tortoise Immortal Core in his hand, his expression darkening.

“I have a premonition that something big is going to happen over there.”

If only Su Zhedian controlled the entrance to this realm, Su Chengyu naturally wouldn’t worry. But looking at it now, things aren’t as optimistic as he hoped.

During the decades of Su Zhedian’s actions, others have also been making other arrangements.

And accompanying Su Zhedian’s return, these matters are likely to surface soon.
