Dual Cultivation With My Yandere Disciples

Huo Ling’er’s pleas were destined not to be heard.

Chen Xuan continued dragging her into the spatial passage, while Chi Yao and Xiao Lingxi were brought along in a much gentler manner.

It didn’t take long.

The spatial transfer was almost instantaneous.

One moment, one Master and his disciples were still underwater. The next, they had appeared in a completely different world.

The characteristic sound of crashing waves echoed in their ears.

Chen Xuan had once entered a secret realm before. It was the place where he had found Honglan, and where his secret confrontation with Xiao Huo had occurred.

Although many things had happened since then, the memories of that day remained fresh even now.

The several trials. The urge to save Tang Yuechen. The Yin-Yang Annihilation spell.

More importantly, he remembered the endless dark void he had encountered there. It was somewhat similar to the floors within the Seven Trials Tower.

Because of that experience, Chen Xuan had expected the secret realm of the Goddess of the Sea to possess a similar environment.

Yet surprisingly, his expectations were destined to be shattered.

What entered his and his disciples’ vision was not a dark void.

Instead, it was an endless sea, stretching in every direction with no signs of ever ending.

The sky above was clear, without a single cloud. There was no sun, yet the surroundings were brightly illuminated, as though the entire secret realm possessed its own source of light.

As for them?

They were currently standing on a lone island where there were absolutely no signs of life.

The island wasn’t particularly large.

There were no trees, flowers, buildings, or even traces that anyone had ever lived here. Aside from a few strangely shaped rocks scattered across the shore, the entire place was completely barren.

It was almost as though this island had been deliberately left untouched.

Out of habit, Chen Xuan’s gaze swept through his surroundings, as did his divine sense, digging several hundred feet underground.

Even so, he still found nothing.

The island around them seemed empty, as did the sea surrounding them.

A strange expression flashed across Chen Xuan’s face.

He didn’t recklessly soar into the sky.

His experience had taught him to always remain cautious, especially when entering places left behind by ancient experts.

What if there was some kind of formation that prevented flying?

What if the Goddess of the Sea was particularly ruthless and would directly kill him on the spot?

Chen Xuan was unwilling to take the risk.

If he had gotten so close to the inheritance of an Immortal only to be killed on the spot, it would become a tale that would be passed down through generations of cultivators.

Thinking of this, Chen Xuan couldn’t help but feel somewhat speechless.

Suppressing these inexplicable thoughts, Chen Xuan looked toward his disciples, planning to discuss how they should proceed.

Whether it was Chi Yao or Xiao Lingxi, he valued their opinions highly.

The former for her experience, and the latter for her knowledge of the Nine Origins Seas.

As for Huo Ling’er...

Chen Xuan chose not to talk about it.

Just as he opened his mouth and was about to speak, however, his troublesome disciple suddenly let out a loud exclamation.

"Master! Look! What is this?!"

She shouted while pointing toward the waters not far away.

Chen Xuan wanted to scold her for being so unladylike.

A cultivator should remain calm under all circumstances!

How could she react like this?

Yet as he raised his head and followed the trajectory of her finger, Chen Xuan’s eyes suddenly shrank.

He froze in place.

He finally understood why Huo Ling’er had reacted like that.

If anything, her reaction was somewhat limited compared to what one would expect.

Chen Xuan could see it clearly.

Far off on the horizon, the outline of a beast could be seen.

That alone was hardly surprising considering the place and the current circumstances.

However, the identity of that beast was particularly shocking.

It was a turtle.

Several miles long, with a head that pierced through the clouds and seemed to reach into the heavens.

For a moment, Chen Xuan even wondered whether he had mistaken what he was seeing.

The creature was simply too enormous. From the island, its body looked like a moving mountain range, while its enormous limbs stirred the surrounding sea with every step.

Even the island they were currently standing on was like a mere speck of dust before it.

Its entire body was green, while spots of black could be seen across its shell. The two colors intertwined naturally, giving it a majestic yet ancient appearance.

Its speed was slow, worthy of its identity as a turtle beast.

Yet given its enormous body, every movement was enough to cover several hundred feet.

The waves beneath its body surged outward with every step, forming enormous ripples that spread across the sea.

Before Chen Xuan could react, it had already arrived in front of the island where they were standing.

It was only then that he was able to take an even closer look at it.

Ancient.

This was the word that appeared in Chen Xuan’s mind. And he felt it was the most apt word to describe it.

This turtle was too old!

Every inch of its face, body, and even shell bore the marks of time.

Its shell was covered in faint cracks and strange patterns, as though they had been carved into it by countless years of wind and rain.

Its eyes were equally ancient. They were not fierce or aggressive.

Instead, they were calm and indifferent, as though the passage of time had long since ceased to have any meaning to it.

It seemed as though it had lived for billions of years, witnessing the fall and rise of civilizations.

Yet Chen Xuan only focused on this matter for a moment.

Soon, his attention shifted elsewhere.

The beast’s aura.

Or rather, the lack thereof.

The beast emitted no aura at all, as though it were an ordinary turtle.

Yet given its size and demeanor, this didn’t make one underestimate it.

If anything, it made it even more mysterious and powerful.

After all, an ordinary turtle could never survive for so long, much less possess a body several miles in size.

Even Chen Xuan’s divine sense couldn’t determine the depths of its cultivation.

This was extremely unusual.

His strength had already reached the Middle Stage of Soul Formation. His divine sense was already powerful enough to see through Soul Transformation experts.

Even if he couldn’t pinpoint their exact cultivation, he would have been capable of sensing their unfathomable depth.

Yet the turtle before him was different.

It wasn’t that its aura was concealed. Rather, it didn’t exist at all.

This discovery caused his expression to become serious.

Countless thoughts raced through Chen Xuan’s mind.

A similar number went through his disciples’ heads.

Fear. Apprehension. Admiration.

Several emotions flashed through their eyes, with only Chi Yao being barely able to remain calm.

Even so, excitement could be seen within her eyes.

She had lived far longer than the others in her previous life and had encountered countless powerful existences. Yet even she had to admit that the turtle before her was extraordinary.

Not only because of its strength, but also because of its identity.

Four humans and one turtle remained in a standoff for several seconds.

Silence shrouded the island and the endless ocean, making the atmosphere particularly heavy.

None of them dared to act recklessly.

Even Huo Ling’er, who had been the most excited moments ago, obediently remained behind Chen Xuan.

Several seconds later, the one to break the silence was none other than the turtle.

"You’ve... finally... come..."

Words came out of its mouth, each separated by a pause of several seconds.

Its voice was old and hoarse, as though it had not spoken for centuries.

Chen Xuan found it somewhat difficult to understand what it was saying.

Even so, he showed no displeasure.

Instead, he respectfully cupped his hands.

"Excuse me, Senior. I didn’t know this happened to be your abode."

He performed a bow of courtesy, one that weaker cultivators would perform toward their seniors.

When facing a turtle, it seemed somewhat out of place.

However, Chen Xuan found nothing wrong with it.

He knew that powerful beasts possessed intelligence similar to humans.

Moreover, unlike their weaker counterparts, they would not be led solely by emotions or instincts.

Just like humans, powerful beasts would also judge the situation.

Likewise, they would also feel offended or flattered based on the behavior of others.

Rather than risking it, Chen Xuan would rather act cautiously.

At the very least, showing respect cost him nothing.

Even so, he remained cautious, secretly circulating his Spiritual Energy and Law Mark in case the turtle suddenly attacked him and his disciples.

Thankfully, things went neither well nor badly.

The turtle didn’t respond to his words.

Instead, it focused on the four people for several seconds before speaking up again.

"The Master’s... inheritors... have finally... come..."
