“Find a buddy?”
Huai Qingyun looked at Sir’s departing figure, murmuring in confusion.
Foot of Qingping Mountain.
There was a river about six or seven meters wide, crossing the entire Liucheng County. According to different sections, the name was also quite different.
The river by the Taoist temple was called ‘Qingping River’ by people. In short, the mountain was Qingping Mountain, the river was Qingping River, and the town was Qingping Town.
This moment.
Xuanqing was floating above the Qingping River.
Wow la la-
The water was shallow, washing the pebbles and making a rattling sound.
“Who would have thought that such a small river would cause a flood and submerge most of Qingping Town?”
Looking at the river under his feet.
Xuanqing thought with a sigh.
He came to the Qingping River because he wanted to find a creature living in the water to transform it into an essence, and then confer it as a Water God to become his subordinate god.
In this way, not only could the ‘separation feeling’ be completely solved, but it could also help with flood control and disaster relief in a few days.
Two birds with one stone!
Then.
Xuanqing inspected along the river to find aquatic creatures suitable for transforming into essence.
It is worth mentioning that.
The art of transforming has certain limitations. It must be a creature that has lived for a certain number of years and has already given birth to some spiritual light.
Like Huai Qingyun, who has lived in Qingping Temple for hundreds of years, later received Xuanqing’s urine blessing and incense belief, and finally reached the conditions of being transformed.
After searching for a long time.
No suitable creatures were found that could be transformed.
As the saying goes, a True Dragon cannot be raised in shallow water. The widest part of this section of Qingping River is no more than ten meters, and the deepest part is no more than a few meters.
“Do I have to go to other river sections to find it?”
Xuanqing frowned slightly.
In not too long, Qingping Town would be flooded, and it would be best to transform the creatures in this river section.
Suddenly.
An idea flashed through his mind.
It’s not necessary that only creatures living in water can be transformed into
River Gods. Amphibious animals can also be, such as… turtles?
Even in a sense, turtle species are more spiritual and easier to transform into essence than fish.
After this idea emerged in his heart.
Xuanqing shifted his gaze from the water and began to pay attention to the stone crevices on the shore, as most turtles live in those stone crevices.
About a quarter of an hour later.
Finally.
He found a suitable target for transformation at the entrance of a karst cave connected to an underground river.
This fellow was a male grass turtle.
Thefone>Half of its body was buried in the sand at the mouth of the cave, with only two round nostrils exposed for breathing.
“Turtle- You’re in luck, I hereby grant you an opportunity!”
Wow la la!
Feeling the approach of a giant bipedal animal, the grass turtle panicked, frantically scraping its four legs, trying to escape into the depths of the cave.
“Seize!”
However.
With a sweep of a semi-transparent, illusory giant hand.
The grass turtle was caught in midair, its limbs still scratching in vain.
Looking at the grass turtle fixed in the air.
With a thought in his mind.
A Gathering Qi Bead filled with the power of incense emerged from the Game Backpack.
“Release!”
Humming-
Centered on the Gathering Qi Bead, mysterious waves rippled like breaking the calm surface of a lake, causing ripples.
“Now!”
Xuanqing’s eyes flashed with brilliance, pulling a part of the power of incense fire from the Gathering Qi Bead toward the grass turtle in the air.
Moments later.
The originally palm-sized grass turtle disappeared.
A black turtle the size of a bed, two meters long and one meter six or seven wide, appeared above the river.
“M00-!” The massive black turtle opened its mouth and let out a sound similar to a cow’s lowing.
It was different from Huai Qingyun, who had lived in the Taoist temple, absorbed countless people’s Qi, and could speak as soon as he changed shape.
This turtle had always lived in the river, with no knowledge of what language was, and even after gaining intelligence, it still couldn’t speak.
Seeing this.
Xuanqing pointed with his right hand.
In an instant.
A golden light shot into the turtle’s mind, containing the common knowledge of this world.
“Moo- Sir!
ii
The voice was even deeper than that of the Black Bear Essence, thick and heavy, like an old cow.
There was a clear shimmer in the turtle’s beady eyes, indicating that it was a creature of wisdom.
“Well done!”
Xuanqing gave a slight smile.contemporary romance
He then took out the gold token from the game backpack, hovering it in the air and performing a deification ceremony on the huge turtle, just as he had done for Huai Qingyun.
“I, Xuanqing, Taiji Right Palace Supervisor Immortal Official, Supreme Pure Department of Lushu Signings Books, Thunderclap Capital Affairs, confer the status of Qingping River’s Water God upon this Turtle Essence!”
“As the Earth God of the river, you should maintain the waterways and protect the living creatures within!”
Humming-
There were colorful lights flowing on the turtle’s body.
In just a short time.
It went from an ordinary giant turtle to the Water God of the Qingping River area.
It wasn’t over yet.
Looking at the turtle that had become the Water God.
Xuanqing asked solemnly, “Qingping River’s Water God, are you willing to become a subordinate god under my command?”
Hearing this.
The turtle quickly knelt down on all fours, burying its head in the soil as a gesture of its willingness to become a subordinate god.
Seeing this scene.
Xuanqing nodded in satisfaction.
He and the turtle had no personal bond yet. If the turtle dared to utter even half a word of refusal…
Today would be the twilight of all gods.
You should know.
In this real world, without the protection of the Heavenly Court, a minor river god like this one, or even a Taoist master appointed by Xuanqing himself, could be utterly destroyed without repercussion.
In a while.
After the Water God of Qingping River formally became a subordinate god under his command.
The weird feeling of ‘separation’ finally disappeared completely, relieving Xuanqing of a major internal concern.
“Moo- Sir…” The giant tortoise opened its mouth, looking as if it wanted to say something, with a human-like expression of hesitation on its face.
“Hmm?”
“To inform Sir, after becoming the Water God of Qingping River, 1 have a sense of unease in my heart, as if some disaster is going to happen.”
“Your feeling is not wrong.”
Xuanqing nodded and then said indifferently, “In two days, at one quarter past the hour of Si, a flood will inundate Qingping Town, bringing catastrophe.”
“My reason for transforming you was to have you help when the disaster strikes. Do you understand?”
Hearing this.
The giant turtle was horrified.
As the god of the river, it could only sense a vague feeling, yet Xuanqing was able to calculate the precise timing of the event down to the minute and second.
At this thought.
It buried its head even deeper, speaking cautiously, “Your subordinate will strictly follow your command.”
Come, I’ll introduce you to your colleagues.”
Time slowly passed.
Two days later.
The sun was shining brightly.
Qingping Town was bustling.
With the popularity of the Taoist temple, many visitors had come to the small town, and many locals had turned their homes into famous inns.
sunlight streamed through the windows, casting a warm glow on the bed, making the scene seem completely unrelated to the impending flood.
However.
Unbeknownst to the townspeople and visitors, a massive crisis had quietly arrived..
