I always believed Fang Yu was actually wearing a disguise as Huai Xu..." said the man standing beside him, Wang Zhenlong, who ranked thirty-seventh on the Tianbang."I agree... That's why I didn't come..."I hope it didn't wash away my fingerprints," Fang Yu muttered to himself.

"Whoosh!"

When Fang Yu's palm touched the tree trunk, the ground beneath his feet immediately burst into a glow.

A burst of white light rose from the ground, instantly engulfing Fang Yu and Ling'er's whole bodies.

Then, the scene before Fang Yu's eyes underwent a drastic transformation.

Before me is a mountain spring, surrounded by greenery.

Fields, woods, gentle hills, everything a natural countryside should have, it has.

Vibrant and full of life, the air here is noticeably fresher than outside.

Fang Yu followed the path beneath his feet, walking forward at an unhurried pace.

Along the way, birds chirping and flowers fragrant, Fang Yu's mood became more and more cheerful as he walked.

"When I have some free time later on... I'm also going to carve out a little space like this. For anything that isn't important, I won't go out anymore." Fang Yu thought to himself.

Following the path for some time, Fang Yu came across a majestic mountain spring.

The spring water flows down from the small hill in front, crystal clear.

Fang Yu walked to the spring, placed Ling'er on the grass, and cupped some spring water in his hands. He raised his head and drank it all down.

The spring water is extremely sweet, like it's been sugared, but without the cloying sweetness of sugar. Instead, it's refreshingly pure.

"Old Turtle, I've been here for so long, you don't even come out to greet me Isn't that a bit over the top" Fang Yu said after taking several gulps of spring water.

There is no one around here, only the sound of spring water flowing.

Ke Fangyu, as if speaking to herself, uttered a word. Suddenly, the surface of the spring water ahead rippled.

Then, a stone beside the spring that looked just like it was covered in moss suddenly rose up.

Upon closer inspection, you'll see that this is a turtle shell!

Then, the turtle shell stood up.

Here is the translation:

"I was sleeping soundly, and you came to wake me up… I'm not kicking you out; that's already giving you face." The turtle walked forward like that, without even sticking its head out, but its voice came from inside its shell.

From the sound of his voice alone, he sounds like a man in his seventies or eighties.

"Old Turtle, it's been so many years. You should at least stick your head out for me to take a look," Fang Yu said.

As soon as Fang Yu finished speaking, the turtle's shell in front of him extended its head.

Its head looks similar to an ordinary turtle, but its eyes are particularly large, like a human's.

The old turtle glanced at the girl on the ground and said, "I know what you're here to ask me for. But unfortunately, I'm in hibernation right now and can't help."

"Hibernation You're already in hibernation. Every day is a hibernation for you! Hurry up and show me, something about this girl is special." Fang Yu said.

"Come back in half a year. I'm really in hibernation, don't you feel like I can't even open my eyes" The old turtle said lazily, with half-closed eyes.

Fang Yu stood up and smiled coldly, saying: "Old Turtle, I originally wanted to get along with you as old friends, but if you are in this attitude, don't blame me for turning my face."

Feeling Fang Yu's icy gaze, Lao Gui recalled the painful memory of their first meeting and shivered, his eyes snapping open.

"I think this small space you've created now is pretty good. It's a pity to be destroyed like this." Fang Yu looked around and muttered to himself.

"Alright! Enough talk... I'll make an exception for you, old friend!" the turtle roared.

Fang Yu then retracted his aura.

He knew this old turtle too well; it was a stubborn creature, only eating the hard stuff and ignoring anything soft.

This old turtle, I met it a thousand years ago by chance.

At that time, Fang Yu wanted to kill it and make turtle soup. As a result, the old turtle knelt down and wept bitterly, begging for mercy.

After that, Fang Yu discovered that the old turtle was a spirit beast capable of transforming into a human form. Due to his superb medical skills, he was treated as a living god by villagers in the surrounding mountains and villages.

After an exchange of medical knowledge, Fang Yu was astonished to realize that this old turtle's medical skill far surpassed his own!

So, he stayed in the old turtle's private space for a while, wanting to learn some medicine from the old turtle.

After spending about three years in solitude, Fang Yu's medical skills had improved significantly, so he left.

Meeting again after a thousand years.

But strangely, neither Fang Yu nor Lao Gui felt like strangers they hadn't seen in a long time.

Perhaps, because both of them had lived for too long, time was of no consequence to them.

At this moment, the old turtle had already walked to Ling'er's side, grabbed her left hand, and began to feel her pulse.

After a dozen seconds, the old turtle turned to Fang Yu, looking at him with suspicion. "According to her pulse, there's nothing wrong with this girl. Aren't you trying to fool me"

"Most of her body seems fine, which is the biggest problem." Fang Yu said, "Otherwise, would I have come to you"

"Have you already looked Then tell me what's wrong, don't waste my energy, I'm exhausted." The old turtle sat on the ground.

"You better transform into human form, or I'm afraid that when this girl wakes up, you'll scare her." Fang Yu said.

"Too many demands," grumbled the old turtle, then patted his emerald green shell. His whole body shimmered with a faint light.

Then, an elderly man with a severe hunchback and kind eyes appeared before Fang Yu.

“Her symptoms are coma, she vomited blood before, her eyes are open but pitch black, no whites visible,” Fang Yu said. “I’ve checked her soul spirit and meridians, there’s nothing wrong with them. The only problem lies in her blood. Her blood is currently boiling, but the cause isn’t necessarily temperature…it’s extremely chaotic in general.”

"Both eyes black" The old turtle extended his wrinkled hand and pried open Ling'er's eyelids. Sure enough, her eyeballs were completely black.

"To figure out what's going on with the blood, you need to take a sample first and have a look."

The old turtle spoke, his hand trembling as he reached into the pouch at his waist. He pulled out a silver needle and a small, transparent bottle.

It held the silver thorn and pricked Ling'er's fingertip, then collected a few drops of blood into a small vial.

"Sizzle..."

A drop of blood fell into the bottle, and it made a faint sound.

"This blood..." The old turtle's white eyebrows furrowed tightly, his eyes filled with surprise.

The old turtle took the small bottle and walked to an open space behind him. He then pulled out a miniature cauldron from his storage bag and began a series of operations.

Fang Yu stood aside, silently watching without saying a word.

Old Turtle's medical skills are unquestionable.

After about half an hour, the few drops of blood in the bottle had been transformed by the old turtle into several portions placed on white paper for observation of their composition.

"This blood... unheard of, unseen!" Old Turtle presented a white sheet of paper to the sunlight, exclaiming in horror.

"What's wrong" Fang Yu walked forward and asked.

"I'm not sure yet! I can't be certain! To make absolutely sure, I need to run another test... and I also need to look through a few old books." The turtle's voice suddenly became excited, as if he had stumbled upon something delightful.

Before Ling'er, the old turtle who was about to draw her blood, turned around and said to Yu: "Now if you ask me to say something, I can't say anything...To figure out her situation, it's impossible to do it in a short time, at least ten or half a month. You can leave here first and don't bother me."

Fang Yu looked at the old turtle, narrowed his eyes and said, "Then you have to take this seriously, he's my friend."

"Rest assured, in this situation...you make me not take it seriously, I can't do it!" said the old turtle.

"Then I'll come back in ten days." Fang Yu said.

This old turtle, this spirit beast, is still trustworthy.

The old tortoise of that year stayed among the mountain villages and became a skilled physician, helping many poor villagers. Therefore, he was sung about as a living immortal.

Although he may seem lazy in speech, in fact his medical skills and ethics are impeccable.

Ling'er has a good chance of being cured in its hands.

Fang Yu said no more, and turned to leave.

……

The central region, a pristine forest.

Seated between the stone stelae, Jiang Dao stood as the last Soul Essence Stone floated before him. The Soul Essence within could only be depleted entirely!

"Zeng!"

Jiangdao's body immediately flashed with a burst of orange-yellow light!

At the same time, he tightly closed his eyes and suddenly opened them, his gaze was terrifying!

"My soul essence... has finally reached perfection! The holy artifact left to me by the Supreme Elder... can finally be used!" Jiang Dao let out a long roar, his aura bursting forth completely!

"Boom..."

The surrounding stone steles, caught in the sudden blast of energy, were shattered and toppled!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!is heart filled with resentment and anger.Even after fusing with the Heavenly Sovereign Body, he still couldn't gain the upper hand!This was something he hadn't expected.Even if it was just a prelimin...
