Chapter 148 The Pact of Transformation! Refining Spiritual Treasures!
After a moment's thought, Niu Ben came to his senses and suddenly looked at the Black Tortoise of the North Sea and asked:
"Senior, if I can help you transform into human form, would you be willing to grant me this training ground?"
"What?"
The Black Tortoise of the North Sea was shocked after hearing what Niu Ben said.
But then he scoffed:
"hehe!"
"You young upstart, you really dare to speak your mind!"
"Even I, the old ancestor, couldn't do it, do you think you can?"
Throughout countless ages, the Black Tortoise of the North Sea has tried countless times to transform into human form.
But unfortunately.
Without exception, they all ended in failure.
Niu Ben's strength was not bad either, with the cultivation level of the early stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
But in the eyes of the North Sea Black Tortoise, this level of strength was probably not enough to contend with the force that imprisoned him.
After all, if he can't do it here, then it's naturally impossible for a Primordial Golden Immortal in the early stages to do it.
Seeing that the North Sea Black Tortoise did not believe what he said, Niu Ben did not care and said calmly:
"senior."
"I'm not joking with you, I really can make you take human form."
Upon hearing this, the North Sea Black Tortoise was taken aback and glanced at Niu Ben a few more times.
Seeing that Niu Ben spoke with such conviction, and it didn't seem like he was just boasting, the contempt on his face finally disappeared.
After a moment of silence, the Xuan Turtle responded:
"If you can truly make me take human form."
"These three islands will serve as your training ground."
"Besides..."
At this point, the North Sea Black Tortoise paused, then turned its gaze toward the Primordial Measuring Ruler that was suspended in mid-air.
"call out!"
The next moment, the Primordial Measuring Ruler flew straight down in front of Niu Ben.
At this point, the Black Tortoise of the North Sea added:
"You can have this ruler too!"
For the Black Tortoise of the North Sea, transforming into human form is what it most desires to achieve.
Over the long years, this matter has become an obsession in his heart.
Whether it's the Penglai Immortal Island or the Primordial Measuring Ruler.
For the Black Tortoise of the North Sea, these things are irrelevant when it comes to the matter of transforming into human form.
When Niu Ben saw the North Sea Black Tortoise bring the Primordial Measuring Ruler to him, he naturally realized that the North Sea Black Tortoise had begun to trust him.
Then, without any hesitation, he put away the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.
"Senior, although I can help you transform into human form..."
"However... it will take some time to prepare before we can accomplish this. I wonder if you can afford to wait?"
Upon hearing this, the North Sea Black Tortoise didn't seem to mind and nodded slightly, saying:
"It's alright!"
"I was born in ancient times; time is nothing but a number to me."
"You are a disciple of a sage, so I doubt you would deceive me."
"But I will stay here until I take human form."
Upon hearing what the North Sea Black Tortoise said, Niu Ben nodded in understanding.
He could tell that although the North Sea Black Tortoise kept saying it believed in him, it still harbored some doubts deep down.
Choosing to stay on this Penglai Immortal Island and occupy this place is to tell him that if he cannot help him transform into human form, this Daoist temple will naturally not be given to him!
Of course, leaving the North Sea Black Tortoise here was exactly what Niu Ben wanted.
After all, the innate formation outside Penglai Immortal Island had already been broken by Niu Ben.
As for him, if he wants to help the North Sea Black Tortoise transform into human form, he does need to prepare for a while and wait for the right opportunity.
During this period, Niu Ben could not possibly stay on Penglai Island indefinitely.
If anyone else sets their sights on this place, the North Sea Black Tortoise can deter them.
It's like getting a divine beast to guard your dojo for free!
"Hahaha!"
After thinking for a moment, Niu Ben couldn't help but burst into laughter:
"good!"
"In that case, it's a deal between us, senior!"
The North Sea Black Tortoise nodded and murmured:
Don't worry!
"I always mean what I say."
"If you can truly help me take human form, I will naturally fulfill the promise I made to you."
After saying this, the North Sea Black Tortoise did not wait for Niu Ben to say anything more, and slowly closed its eyes, falling asleep on the spot.
Seeing this, Niu Ben didn't pay much attention. With a thought, he took out the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus.
Having arrived at Penglai Immortal Island, he obtained the Twelve-Grade Pure White Lotus and the Primordial Measuring Ruler, and naturally wanted to refine these two spiritual treasures as soon as possible.
Upon closer inspection, one could see a lotus platform floating in Niu Ben's palm, its entire body as white as jade, radiating a soft and holy light.
It seems to be able to purify all the filth in the world.
Then, Niu Ben sat cross-legged and held the white lotus in his palm.
The next moment, it exhaled its natal fire, which enveloped the twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus, and every petal of the lotus platform began to tremble gently!
Immediately afterwards, countless fine innate Dao patterns appeared on the lotus platform, flowing endlessly like living things.
Niu Ben focused intently and then divided his divine thoughts into twelve streams, simultaneously imprinting them onto the twelve lotus petals.
The power of the Heavenly Divine Ox within his body was mobilized and began to be refined.
……
In the blink of an eye, many years have passed.
On this day, countless rays of light suddenly burst forth from the twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus in front of Niu Ben.
The dazzling light illuminated the entire Penglai Immortal Island.
Then, a holy power instantly spread out.
Under the influence of this power, the filth on Penglai Island was completely purified, and the spiritual herbs and immortal trees grew at a visible speed.
A series of chants resounded in the void, as if thousands of saints were reciting them.
Then, Niu Ben slowly opened his eyes.
"Finally, the refining was successful!"
He muttered to himself, "It took hundreds of years, but today I have finally succeeded in refining the twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus."
With a little perception, Niu Ben understood the wondrous use of this lotus platform.
It can purify all evil spirits, help people resist inner demons, and maintain a clear and pure mind!
After refining the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus, Niu Ben had a thought and then retrieved the Primordial Measuring Ruler.
The ruler is simple and unadorned, yet it contains a power that stirs the soul.
A myriad of primordial yellow energy swirled around, each strand seemingly as heavy as a mountain.
Next, Niu Ben exerted all his strength, mobilizing the full power of the Heavenly Divine Ox within his body, and began to refine the Primordial Measuring Ruler.
……
Before we knew it, several hundred years had passed.
"boom!"
Suddenly, the Primordial Measuring Ruler, which was suspended in front of Niu Ben, trembled violently. Countless streams of Xuanhuang energy flowed into Niu Ben's body, allowing him to establish a connection with the Primordial Measuring Ruler.
"call!"
Niu Ben let out a long sigh and opened his eyes again.
"Truly worthy of being called the Primordial Measuring Ruler!"
"To measure heaven and earth, to shatter all laws!"
"Not only can it determine the feng shui and fire elements of a place, but it can also kill people without incurring any karmic consequences."
Niu Ben sighed inwardly.
Just then, a voice transmission suddenly came to his mind.
"Um?"
"Master has summoned me back to Shouyang Mountain?"
Niu Ben exclaimed in surprise and quickly got up to look at the still-sleeping Xuan Turtle:
"senior."
"My master, the Supreme Sage, has summoned me back to the mountain."
"When the time is right, I will come here to help you take human form!"
Upon hearing this, the North Sea Black Tortoise narrowed its eyes slightly and said calmly:
Go!
"Don't forget our promise!"
Niu Ben nodded, and without lingering, he leaped away.
