Chaos Heaven-Dominating Technique

Within Shen Haoran’s Sea of Consciousness, a faint, earthy-yellow light glowed, enveloping his entire body. The moment this light appeared, the pain coursing through him vanished completely.

PHEW... A moment later, when Shen Haoran opened his eyes, he found himself in a pitch-black space. He looked down at his own unscathed body and let out a long sigh of relief. ’Looks like my gamble paid off. That earthy-yellow Token saved my life.’

"This must be the internal space of that earthy-yellow Token!" At that moment, Elder Yan’s figure slowly materialized beside Shen Haoran, curiously sizing up the surrounding pitch-black space.

"Elder Yan, how did you get in here too?" Shen Haoran asked, surprised to see him.

"What could I do? That earthy-yellow Token is just too domineering. It didn’t even spare me!" Elder Yan said with a helpless shrug.

"But even though I was pulled in, I can’t use any of my power. So if you end up fighting the Earth Spirit Profound Nether in a bit, you’ll be on your own!" Elder Yan continued. The earthy-yellow Token had acknowledged Shen Haoran as its master, so he could still use his power within this space. Elder Yan, however, was different. He was merely a wisp of Spiritual Thought with no tangible connection to Shen Haoran, so his power had been directly sealed.

"Alright then!" Hearing this, Shen Haoran could only nod helplessly. He then began to walk forward cautiously, starting his search for any trace of the Earth Spirit Profound Nether.

Shen Haoran walked aimlessly through the pitch-black space, his eyes constantly scanning his surroundings. Suddenly, two earthy-yellow lights flared up in the distance. The faint glow was incredibly conspicuous in the darkness.

"Found it!" A look of joy crossed Shen Haoran’s face as he saw the two earthy-yellow lights, which resembled a pair of lanterns. He immediately ran toward them. When he arrived, he was stunned by what appeared before him.

Before Shen Haoran now was a massive tortoise—oh, no, to be precise, it wasn’t a tortoise. A snake’s tail actually grew from the great beast’s back. This form was remarkably similar to the Divine Beast Black Tortoise recorded in ancient texts.

"A tortoise’s body and a snake’s tail... this is the Black Tortoise, one of the Four Great Divine Beasts!" Elder Yan exclaimed, staring at the enormous beast.

"This must be the form the Earth Spirit Profound Nether has taken!" Shen Haoran said, his face full of delight as he watched the Black Tortoise Giant Beast look around. ’The Spiritual Wisdom of the Fire Spirit Black Obsidian took the form of the Divine Vermilion Bird, so it’s only natural that the Earth Spirit Profound Nether would be the Divine Beast Black Tortoise!’

"Be careful. This thing won’t be easy to deal with," Elder Yan said in a low voice, looking at the massive Black Tortoise.

Shen Haoran nodded. He too could feel an immense pressure from the Black Tortoise Giant Beast. It was, after all, one of the Heaven and Earth Spirits—an existence that had gestated for millions of years.

ROAR!

Just as Shen Haoran was observing the Black Tortoise Giant Beast, it seemed to notice his presence as well. It let out an angry roar. ’It’s this human, daring to attempt my Refinement!’ With its four legs pumping, it charged straight at Shen Haoran without a second thought. Its massive body was like a living battering ram, and Shen Haoran could feel the very ground tremble.

"This thing really gets straight to the point, doesn’t it? No room for negotiation at all!" Shen Haoran muttered as he watched the Black Tortoise Giant Beast charge straight for him. Instantly, a vast amount of Spiritual Thought surged forth, condensing into a wall of Spiritual Thought that blocked the path between him and the Black Tortoise.

BOOM!

The next moment, the Black Tortoise Giant Beast’s body slammed into the wall of Spiritual Thought, causing the entire barrier to tremble violently as ripples spread out from the point of impact. The Black Tortoise’s massive body flipped onto its side and crashed hard onto the ground.

Seeing this, a smile touched the corners of Shen Haoran’s mouth. ’This is inside that mysterious earthy-yellow Token, and since it has already acknowledged me as its master, I can borrow its power to block the Black Tortoise Giant Beast. Unless its strength is great enough to defy the Token’s constraints, it will never break through this wall of Spiritual Thought.’

The Black Tortoise Giant Beast wobbled back to its feet. The collision had left it dizzy; it was as if it could see countless birds fluttering before its eyes, chirping nonstop.

ROAR...

The Black Tortoise Giant Beast let out a great roar and shook its head, dispelling the dizziness. It then glared fiercely at Shen Haoran, pawed the ground with its hind legs, and charged once more.

"Don’t—" Before Shen Haoran could even finish his warning, the Black Tortoise Giant Beast had already slammed into the wall again. The result, naturally, was another spectacular tumble as it was sent sprawling to the ground.

A moment later, the Black Tortoise Giant Beast got up again, its eyes bloodshot with rage. ’I refuse to believe I can’t even break through a single wall today! I’ll make that little brat hiding behind it pay!’

The Black Tortoise Giant Beast bellowed, repeatedly ramming itself into the wall of Spiritual Thought. The series of dull thuds made Shen Haoran’s scalp tingle. Eventually, he couldn’t bear to watch any longer. He simply sat down cross-legged and ignored the Black Tortoise Giant Beast.

"Go on, keep ramming. When you’ve finally tired yourself out, we can have a proper chat," Shen Haoran said lightly. He then closed his eyes and began his Cultivation...

A series of dull thuds—BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!—echoed continuously through the pitch-black space, a stark and jarring sound in the silence.

An unknown amount of time passed. The dull impacts grew weaker and weaker until they finally stopped altogether. At that, Shen Haoran’s tightly closed eyes slowly opened. When he saw the Black Tortoise Giant Beast lying motionless behind the wall of Spiritual Thought like a dead dog, a satisfied smile touched his lips.

With a wave of his hand, Shen Haoran made the wall standing between him and the Black Tortoise Giant Beast slowly dissipate. He stood up and walked steadily toward the great beast.

By now, the Black Tortoise Giant Beast was completely exhausted. The ceaseless impacts had nearly shattered its own head, yet it still hadn’t broken through the wall of Spiritual Thought. When it saw Shen Haoran approaching, its eyes filled with venomous hatred, but the weakness coursing through its body left it powerless.

Shen Haoran stood before the Black Tortoise Giant Beast, looking down upon the creature, whose aura was now faint. Countless whirlpools then materialized behind him. From within those dark vortexes, sharp longswords slowly emerged, one by one.

"Submit, or be annihilated. The choice is yours!" The calm voice echoed through the pitch-black space, causing the Black Tortoise Giant Beast’s pupils to shrink in an instant...
