Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Black Turtle was calling for help? Bu Fang paused for a moment. At his side, Xiao Ai was still showing the map to him, but he paid no attention to her. Instead, he slowly stood up and looked into the distance.

Moments later, he beckoned to Nethery and the Empyrean Fairy. They came up to him and looked at him suspiciously.

“Found him,” Bu Fang said, then patted the Kun Bird perching on his shoulder.

With a crow, the bird spread its wings and turned into a huge hawk in the sky. Bu Fang sat cross-legged on its back. Nethery and the Empyrean Fairy followed.

Down below, Chief Luo and the others were all looking at them in confusion. Suddenly, the enormous hawk flapped its wings and sped into the distance, disappearing into the horizon in a flash.

“What’s happening?” Xiao Ai and Chief Luo froze. They could not understand why Bu Fang had left all of a sudden. However, they quickly came back to their senses. They did not have time to waste. At this moment, the whole world was changing.

Countless demons kept emerging from the sea and flew in all directions. Some people were standing on tall buildings looking out over the ocean, and they all saw strange black creatures swarming toward the land.

…

In the Dongshi Village, an invisible force slowly spread, waking up all the people affected by the strange will. They looked around in horror, and their fear reached its peak when they saw the terrifying wall of water on the sea. The villagers fell to their knees, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

The old man stood with his hands behind his back, facing the wall of water. The strong sea breeze had already blown the huts to the ground. Behind him, a group of children huddled together with frightened expressions on their faces.

“This is so terrible! Is the world coming to an end?” shouted one of the villagers.

In the distance, one Soul Demon after another poked their heads out of the water. They were clad in scales, their eyes scarlet and full of fury. Powerful waves of air kept bursting out of them and impacted the shore.

The group of demons stood on the waves, looking down at the old man standing in front of the villagers. They could see that he was a cultivator. To Soul Demons, cultivators were the most delicious food. In fact, the reason why they invaded different universes was to eat humans!

The villagers fled frantically, all hiding behind the old man and looking up in horror at the group of demons. Some of them were staring at the old man in awe and suspicion. No one had ever thought that the old man who loved to sleep was actually a cultivator and that he was so strong.

The old man glanced over his shoulder at the group of children and let out a soft sigh. Although he was only an Artifact Spirit, after existing for countless years, he already had feelings. Perhaps he had been through too much. He was tired now, but even so, he still needed to protect these people.

His days in this small fishing village were short, but he could not watch the villagers being killed and not do anything about it.

“Kill him!” cried the Soul Demons standing on the waves. The next moment, they began to charge toward the shore.

“Stand back a little further, children…” the old man said. He had isolated the villagers from the influence of those Soul Demons.

The villagers retreated further, standing somewhere far away and watching him.

“Old Sir, be careful!”

“Kill those devils!”

“Please help us, Old Sir…”

Some people were worried, while others were asking for help. The old man had become their only lifeline.

“Soul Demons…”

The old man took a deep breath. With a thought, a powerful wave of air burst from his body. The next moment, a black wok appeared in the sky above him, rotating and growing larger and larger to blot out the sun.

The Soul Demons rushed like mad at the black wok, but when they struck its hard surface, they exploded. For a moment, countless Soul Demons crashed into the black wok as if they could not wait to kill themselves, and then shattered into pieces because of the violent impact.

The humans down below were shivering in fear. They felt the approach of death, even though the old man had temporarily fended off the demons with a black wok.

A grave look came into the old man’s eyes as he watched the Soul Demons emerge from the ocean. ‘Why are there so many Soul Demons? Earth is the Ancestral Planet of mankind, so there shouldn’t be so many of them here…’

Black Turtle floated up into the air, then reached out a hand and grabbed the heavy black wok. The next moment, he began to swing the wok, crushing one Soul Demon with each swing. His strength was very powerful, and his terrible aura rose to the sky.

As the black wok kept swinging, countless Soul Demons were crushed and dissolved into demonic energy, which spread in all directions and enveloped heaven and earth in a black aura. However, these were just ordinary Soul Demons. The real Numbered Soul Demons’ strength was extremely fearsome.

At this very moment, one of the Numbered Soul Demons was fighting with Black Turtle. Ordinary Soul Demons multiplied quickly, but they were nothing to be afraid of. The main threat was those Numbered Soul Demons—this kind of existence was equivalent to the Immortal Emperor of mankind.

Even though Black Turtle’s fighting prowess was formidable, he could only fight one Numbered Soul Demon.

Suddenly, the sea in the distance exploded. Black Turtle’s expression changed dramatically. He turned toward that direction and saw two more Numbered Soul Demons flying toward him.

These Soul Demons had the remains and blood of Gods and Immortals floating around them, making them look as if they were some evil beings coming out of hell. At the same time, a very dreadful aura was constantly emanating from them, causing all the villagers to lie on the ground, trembling in fear.

Black Turtle was taken aback. Without hesitation, he fell back on the ground. He knew he could not fight so many Numbered Soul Demons at once. If he abandoned the humans behind him, he would be able to escape. But… he could not do that.

If he left now, these humans would surely be devoured by the Soul Demons.

He sighed helplessly. He just wanted to find an ordinary place to sleep quietly, away from trouble. But in the end, trouble still found him. Perhaps this was the destiny of being an Artifact Spirit.

After pondering for a brief moment, he threw the black wok up into the air. Spinning, the wok expanded and grew extremely huge, then fell back down and covered the whole fishing village, wrapping all the fears and all the nightmares…

Just moments after the black wok covered the village, the huge wall of seawater came crashing down with a deafening bang, drowning everything. The whole village was submerged in the water in an instant and disappeared, turning into a vast expanse of water.

The Soul Demons floated in midair, their scarlet eyes fixed on the black wok at the bottom of the sea. The next moment, the three Numbered Soul Demons struck out at the same time, smashing the wok with astonishing power.

A dull thud echoed out, and then the water exploded and flew up into the sky. At the same time, the black wok vibrated fiercely under the water.

“Inform the Rage Soul Overlord that we have found a human Divine Artifact here,” one of the Numbered Soul Demons said as he turned to look at a Soul Demon at his side.

The Soul Demon nodded, turned into a stream of light, and shot away toward the distance. The rest of the Numbered Soul Demons exchanged glances, then lifted their hands and released black energy. The next moment, the black energy fell on the black wok, corroding it and emitting black smoke.

The air was filled with sizzling sounds, while the Soul Demons were sneering excitedly. All of a sudden, a Numbered Soul Demon narrowed his eyes and raised his head to look into the distance. He saw a huge hawk flapping its wings and closing in on them at great speed.

“What’s that?” said the Soul Demon.

“Seems like a human expert…” replied another Numbered Soul Demon.

A rumbling sound rang out as the sea exploded. In the blink of an eye, the Kun Bird had arrived before the Soul Demons. With its wings outspread, it hovered in midair.

Bu Fang stood behind it and glanced around, then his eyes fell on the black wok at the bottom of the water. Even though it was completely submerged, it was still blooming with a dazzling light.

“Black Turtle… I’ve finally found you.”

Bu Fang’s eyes were somewhat complicated. After searching for so long, he finally found Black Turtle, but he did not expect them to meet under such circumstances.

Obviously, Black Turtle did not want to reveal his whereabouts, but he eventually asked Bu Fang for help to protect the village. He knew that Bu Fang could definitely save them.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground in the black wok, Black Turtle looked up. His gaze seemed to penetrate the black wok and the water to see Bu Fang. He nodded and smiled. Up in the sky, the corners of Bu Fang’s mouth curved upward slightly. Even without speaking, they seemed to understand each other’s thoughts.

“A human expert…”

The eyes of the Numbered Soul Demons lit up. In their perception, Bu Fang’s aura was not too strong, which excited them. They did not expect that a human expert would come to die. If they wanted to conquer the Ancestral Planet of mankind, they must start by slaughtering these top human experts. Therefore, they were not going to spare Bu Fang’s life.

“Soul Demons?” said Nethery, who was standing behind Bu Fang.

The expressions of the Empyrean Fairy and the Kun Bird also grew somewhat grave.

“These demons look very strong…” muttered the fairy.

Suddenly, Bu Fang moved. The Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife fell into his hand, blooming with brilliant gold light, and then he walked forward, stepping across the air.

“Hmm… Remember what I said. When you meet these Soul Demons, don’t talk nonsense to them, just kill them,” Bu Fang said. After saying that, he came to the huge Numbered Soul Demon.

Looking down at Bu Fang, the Soul Demon had a contemptuous expression on his face. “You humans are nothing but food for us,” he said, sneering.

Food? Bu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth. The next moment, his divine sense poured forth and enveloped the Numbered Soul Demon in an instant. With a ripping sound, the Soul Demon was cut in half. His true form tried to flee, but he was quickly burned to ashes by Bu Fang’s divine flame.

With Bu Fang’s current cultivation base, he would not even lose against a Soul Overlord in a battle, let alone a Numbered Soul Demon.

He snapped his fingers. The divine fire swept across the sky in an instant and enveloped the Numbered Soul Demon’s flesh. The Soul Demons around him were no threat to him. He just flicked his finger, and the silver-and-red fire immediately incinerated them.

In the blink of an eye, his surroundings became empty and quiet, and the only sound that could be heard was the hissing sound made by the Soul Demon meat as it was being grilled.

Bu Fang stood in midair with his hands behind his back. Nethery stared at him with sparkling eyes, while the Empyrean Fairy sucked in a cold breath.

The expression on the fairy’s face became very respectful. When she first met Bu Fang, she completely despised him, but now she was completely convinced by his fearsome strength.

Bu Fang descended. The water parted as he approached, revealing the black wok. Standing above it, he flicked his fingers. The black wok shuddered, then vanished in an instant. It was just an illusion Black Turtle had conjured. The real black wok was in Bu Fang’s hands.

The disappearance of the black wok exposed the group of panicked villagers who were under its protection. Black Turtle was standing in front of them, looking at Bu Fang with a smile.

Bu Fang landed on the ground and nodded to Black Turtle. The villagers all bowed their heads in fear. In their eyes, Bu Fang was a real deity who had saved them from the demons’ hands.

“Save them, and I’ll return to you,” Black Turtle said, smiling.

The snotty Erdan hugged Black Turtle’s leg and looked at Bu Fang with wide eyes and a curious and confused face.

Bu Fang’s pupils constricted. ‘So this is the reason why Black Turtle asked me for help. Sure enough, a fully awakened Black Turtle has more human nature than before. Perhaps this is the power that he possesses…’

Just as Black Turtle finished speaking, the sea burst in the distance. The water was churning fiercely, while dark clouds were gathering in the sky, darkening the whole world.

With a deafening rumble and a bloodcurdling aura, a huge Soul Demon with a belly as large as a mountain slowly flew over. The Rage Soul Overlord had finally descended. Hovering in midair, he stared at Bu Fang with his scarlet eyes.

Bu Fang turned his back to the Rage Soul Overlord, and his aura began to fluctuate. Looking at Black Turtle, the corners of his mouth curved upward, and he said mildly, “Okay, I promise you.”
