The Rotary Turtles, like the Xuanming and the Zang Turtles, were all impure descendants of the Xuanwu. After many generations, they were very different from pure-blooded Xuanwu. At the same time, they were able to come up with their own unique abilities and traits.

The Rotary Turtle Tribe submitted to the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage. The current Rotary Turtle Grand Sage was the oldest, and in terms of the cultivation age, few in the Barren Expanses could rival him.

The Rotary Turtle Grand Sage was an Undying Demon Soul Third Level demon, which allowed him a certain amount of respect from the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage. However, he disliked actions and preferred a quiet environment. Hence, he rarely did anything. Yet, both the Barren Expanses and the Divine Lands would not underestimate his existence.

While the Rotary Turtles were lazy, they were greedy too. Normally, they would not do anything. However, if they acted, they would conduct large-scale heists. Few treasures they coveted stayed out of their hands.

The Rotary Turtle Grand Sage was a prime example of this. Everyone in the Grand Celestial World knew about him, even though he rarely showed his face. Only younger human cultivators and demons could forget about his existence.

Among the powerful demons under the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, he ranked right behind the Zhujian Grand Sage and the Sirius Grand Sage. Even the both of them would find him difficult to deal with.

While he had yet to undergo the Cardinal Tribulations, the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage was rich in experience and his demonic powers were vast.

To Lin Feng, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and other top cultivators, the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage could not be viewed to be in the same league. However, to other powerful human cultivators or Undying Demon Soul Third Level demons, he was an enemy they could not ignore

Unlike the Xuanming, who wielded the powerful, freezing-cold Xuanming Primordial Water, and unlike the Zang Turtles, who were well-versed in spell formations, the strength of the Rotary Turtle Tribe was in two aspects: their physical, defensive strength was shocking, and they possessed a unique understanding of space.

They specialized in sealing an entire area of space off. Hence, the area Wang Lin saw before him was independent from the Greater World. They knew that this was the signature move of the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage, and that other powerful demons under the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage were likely present as well.

The Rotary Turtle Grand Sage possessed a clear advantage, and this space was not a defensive measure he used but instead, a method to stop his foe from escaping and then kill him.

The Prince of the East Sea of the Great Zhou Empire, Liang Jinglie, and the Crouching Dragon Stele had diverted their attention to the Vaidūryanirbhāsā World. The Luofu Holy Man could not be found but it likely was not him. If not, Liang Jinglie would have let this happen.

If that’s the case, the likely victim was a demon under the Golden Roc Grand Sage.

Because of that, as the situation was unclear, Liang Jinglie and the Luofu Holy Man would not mind watching the two sides fight while diverting their attention to the Vaidūryanirbhāsā World.

Many thoughts swirled in Wang Lin’s mind. He too obtained the same conclusion when he saw the giant turtle shell as he thought, “Not only did he stop his enemy from retreating back to the Barren Expanses, he was also able to stop his opponent from escaping into void space.”

As he thought about that, Wang Lin’s gaze flashed. “If that’s the case, the demon caught inside was likely the Tuo Kong Grand Sage, a Golden-Feathered Great Roc like the Golden Roc Grand Sage.”

No other demon could match the Golden-Feathered Great Rocs’ speed. In terms of pure speed, very few could match them.

If it were the Bifang Grand Sage, his specialty was not in speed even though he was a bird-type demon in the Undying Demon Soul Third Level. Hence, he could be easily pursued and killed.

If other demons, such as the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage, wanted to fight the Tuo Kong Grand Sage, a victory was not impossible. However, if the Tuo Kong Grand Sage wanted to flee, then very few demons in the Undying Demon Soul Third Level could do anything about it.

Only when the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage sealed off an entire space to block the Tuo Kong Grand Sage’s escape was he able to nullify the Tuo Kong Grand Sage’s speed advantage.

If he only faced the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage, the Tuo Kong Grand Sage could choose to either fight him head-on or break free. However, the space appeared as firm as a mountain, which meant that the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage was concentrating completely on casting this attack without any interference. Hence, it was likely that other demons were fighting the Tuo Kong Grand Sage inside.

Wang Lin, who was thinking, could feel the demonic aura in the space becoming more violent and more intense.

“The Tuo Kong Grand Sage is fighting to the death.” This thought surfaced in Wang Lin’s mind. He then saw a ray of purple light illuminating the sealed space. Through the seal, the purple light was still extremely bright, heart-stopping and unforgettable.

This purple light resembled the Hades’ Dark Mantra and it was just as powerful and destructive. However, it was not from the Golden Roc Grand Sage or the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage. After a while, it vanished.

After the light appeared, a portion of the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage’s sealed space appeared to be dented, as if something sharp was poking outward.

However, the sealed space was not broken. Void space became increasingly distorted a blurry line could be seen. It extended out like an endless path.

Shapeless and formless space became clear instantly. The void extended directly in the entrance of the Ying Sea and connected with the inter-world passage into it.

Wang Lin was shocked, but he quickly reacted to it. “The sealed space was not shattered but instead, the surrounding void became unstable. It started to merge with the space around it. Naturally, it would choose the space the closest to it, and the one that was the most incomplete.”

Compared to the occasionally unstable, blurry dimension in the Void Battleground, the next easiest space for the inter-world passage into the Barren Expanses to link to was the Ying Sea.

As the Tuo Kong Grand Sage used this powerful move, the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage had to use all his strength to prevent the sealed space from disintegrating. In the end, he connected the sealed space to the Ying Sea.

For a short while, the passage into the Ying Sea was extremely firm and stable. It possessed great absorbing abilities and was able to distort the sealed space.

The giant sealed space shrank rapidly and disappeared. Then, the void path too shrank and disappeared into the entrance of the Ying Sea.

It appeared that the sealed space had entered the Ying Sea.

Wang Lin quickly telepathically communicated this to Yang Qing, who looked at it in shock. Soon, he regained his senses as he said, “Third Senior, shall we enter?”

Wang Lin’s body flashed as he rushed for the Ying Sea.

The purple light from the Tuo Kong Grand Sage caught his interest. While he did not personally view the battle, from his supernatural awareness, Wang Lin could sense that the enemy sought to catch the Tuo Kong Grand Sage alive. As the enemy wavered, the Tuo Kong Grand Sage was able to escape.

The crux of it all was the purple light.

He and Yang Qing were followed by the Cang Heaven Spell Blade. They came this time for the demons under the Golden Roc Grand Sage and the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage. The Ying Sea, to them, might not be the main battlefield, but there were still benefits to it.

Everyone knew that the Celestial Sect of Wonders controlled the Celestial Mountain Yingzhou, but they did not know that Penglai was under its control too.

With the two Celestial Mountains, the Celestial Sect of Wonders, while unable to fully control the Ying Sea, no longer feared being injured by the many illusions in the Ying Sea that were the bane of other cultivators.

Their only consideration was that the Ying Sea was vast. Even with two Celestial Mountains, much of the Ying Sea was still a mystery to them. Hence, they did not know where the Tuo Kong Grand Sage and the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage would be.

With the distortion of time, they knew that they would not be near its entrance.

Wang Lin told Lin Feng about this. Lin Feng found the news amusing as he thought of the Vaidūryanirbhāsā World. He smiled and said, “Interesting, are we in trouble too?”

Right now, even though the Celestial Sect of Wonders did not fully control the Ying Sea, they had the greatest influence.

Lin Feng smiled and shook his head, “The three mountains are hidden from the world and they cannot find them, so don’t worry. Do what you must, Wang Lin.”

Wang Lin nodded his head and replied, “Yes, master.” He ended his communication with Lin Feng. Then, Wang Lin rapidly performed a series of spell gestures and above his head, a black-and-white door appeared.

Half of the door was black as ink. Light gleamed off it as it revealed the change across time in an orderly fashion. It brimmed with an eternal, ancient and lost aura.

The other half of the door was like white-jade. Carvings on top of it squirmed messily. Yet, it brimmed with infinite possibilities, giving off a sense of hope.

The door opened suddenly, and a perfect world appeared behind. Changes could be seen everywhere. The past could not be changed, the present could be controlled, and the future brimmed with possibilities.

This was Wang Lin’s Ancient and Modern World.

Wang Lin lightly tapped with his finger and suddenly, a vast amount of light surged in the Ancient and Modern World. It spewed out from the black and white door, landing in the void before Wang Lin.

The light changed non-stop, turning into billions of runic characters. Then, these runes congregated together and then into the path of light. It flew into the distance and stretched all the way to the entrance of the Ying Sea.

It was as if it was following in the footsteps of the path taken the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage’s sealed space just now.

The light enveloped Wang Lin and then the path of light disappeared too. It was as if the entrance to the Ying Sea had sucked Wang Lin and the light in.

Upon entering the Ying Sea, he saw familiar white clouds. This was not his first time here. However, as the light faded, Wang Lin took careful notice of his surroundings and could not help but frown. “This is somewhere we have yet to explore.”
