Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Left with no choice, the Mountain Sea Turtle completed the beast contract with Su Yen in tears.

It had lived for over a thousand years, slowly cultivating to reach its current realm.

It became a Grade 2 in the past decade and fought to have its own territory in the Southern Sea.

After winning the fight and securing its territory, it met Su Yen.

All its hard work over the past thousand years had gone down the drain in a single fight.

Though it couldn't call it a fight, rather a pummeling of its life.

Standing on its colossal back, Su Yen looked at the endless sea and sighed in admiration.

Comparing this world to his previous one, this world was ten times bigger than his previous world.

Just the barren land alone would almost take the size of his previous world.

Throwing unnecessary thoughts out of his mind, he looked at the Mountain Sea Turtle.

"So you've never wandered all through the Southern Sea?" He asked in puzzlement.

"Yes…" The Mountain Sea Turtle responded calmly.

Since it became his mount, it knew there was no need to keep anything from his master.

"I barely saw a corner of the sea. The corner can be referred to as a single drop in the ocean." It paused for a moment before continuing.

"What you called the Southern sea is just a small region in the endless ocean."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Su Yen sighed and shook his head when he heard this. He had long expected it, but hearing it from the sea turtle still slightly shocked him.

'No matter how big this world is… One day I will explore it and uncover all its secrets.' He vowed deeply in his mind.

"Are there any useful minerals in the sea or on the surrounding islands? Also, how many islands are inhabited by humans in your territory?"

The Mountain Sea Turtle didn't respond immediately, as it was lost in thought.

As a turtle, it rarely explored the sea. It only focused on cultivation, and when it was not cultivating, it would sleep or hunt for food.

Therefore, it knew little about its sea and its territory.

Not wanting to make his new master furious, it responded. "Although I know little about my territory, I will ask my subordinate to look into it."

"How long will this take?" Su Yen asked with a creased brow.

"Master, give me a week for my subordinate to find out everything, and I'll report everything to you," the Mountain Sea Turtle answered.

"Alright!" He nodded and thought for a moment before tossing a Spirit Comms ring to the sea turtle.

Looking at the tiny ring, the Mountain Sea Turtle was confused.

It controlled the tiny ring with spiritual essence and examined it carefully but couldn't find anything special about it.

"Bind it with your consciousness. With it, you can call me when you find everything."

'Can I call you with this tiny thing?' The Mountain Sea Turtle looked at Su Yen with wide eyes but followed his instruction.

Immediately, its consciousness entered the tiny ring, and a female voice echoed in its head.

'Welcome to Spirit Comms…'

'Your unique number is *****'

The Mountain Sea Turtle was flabbergasted, and its colossal body shook slightly.

'How can this be possible?!' It exclaimed inwardly.

It brought out its consciousness from the Spirit Comms and looked at Su Yin in dismay.

His current expression was that of a kid who was given a toy for the first time.

It wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say. It was overwhelmed.

The shock was palpable in its heart, and it took a couple of seconds for it to recover.

"Master, is it true?" It couldn't help but ask.

"Of course, it is true. Besides, I'm the creator. How can I give something that won't work?" Su Yen responded calmly, but his voice was laced with pride.

"Really!"

"Yes, when you get to your home. You can explore and find out how to use it," Su Yen responded.

Watching Su Yen's confident responses and realizing he was the creator, it tried to believe him.

'How could this be possible? This is not a talisman. Besides, I've never heard of a talisman that could speak.' It thought to itself.

Suddenly, its eyes brightened for a moment before they dimmed. However, Su Yen saw the slight change in its countenance and asked.

"What's the problem?"

"Master… can I get one more…" The Mountain Sea Turtle asked, looking at Su Yen expectantly.

"Sure!" He threw another Spirit Comms ring at it but warned.

"A beast or person can only use one Spirit Comms. There is no use in having many because everything is bound to your consciousness. No one can use your Spirit Comms, and you can't use others," he elaborated a bit.

"Thank you, this is not for me, but for one of my trusted aides. I know she will be excited when I give this to her," the sea turtle responded.

"Good, don't worry. You can get as many as you need as long as you find what I needed," he promised.

"Don't worry, master. I promise to work very hard."

"Alright. My number is on your Spirit Comms. You

need to exchange your unique number with your friend if you want to talk with them," he lectured.

With the Spirit Comms under the massive shell of the Mountain Sea Turtle, it moved rapidly toward their previous destination.

In a couple of minutes, they arrived and saw two ships waiting for them.

"Sect master…" Everyone on the ship called with reverence brimming on their faces.

Su Yen waved his hand and said. "The turtle has become my mount, and you don't need to fear it whenever you see it."

'Oh My Goodness!' Gasps and shock filled both ships as everyone had their jaws drop to the ground.

Looking at the tiny Su Yen on the colossal back of the sea turtle, the people on the ship found it difficult to wrap their heads around it being his mount.

Among them, Huang Guo was shocked for a moment before his adoration and fanaticism grew stronger with each passing second.

In his mind, Su Yen had transcended the limits of what a human could do. To him, Su Yen was a banished immortal.

As for Elder Su Feng, his shock turned into pride.

'You see that… That's my clan master.' He grinned foolishly, rubbing his salt-pepper hair.

At the back of the sea turtle, Su Yen commanded them to start the mining now that everything had been resolved.

"When should I expect the first batch of spirit stones?" he asked casually, looking at Huang Guo and Elder Su Feng.

"By tomorrow," Huang Guo responded confidently.

"Good! I'm counting on you," Su Yen said and looked at the sky and whistled.

For a couple of seconds, everyone was left wondering.

What is the Sect Master trying to do?!

They thought in dismay.

However, before they could process what was happening, a deafening ear-piercing screech echoed from the sky.

A massive eagle rushed toward the direction at awe-strucking speed, leaving everyone speechless.

The Mountain Sea Turtle looked at the Blue Wing Eagle in the distance and rolled its eyes. 'So I'm not only his mount. It's also a Grade 2 beast.' Thinking of this, the sorrow in its heart disappeared.

At least, they are two.

The Blue Wing Eagle screeched proudly and dove toward Su Yen, looking at the sea turtle with obvious disdain.

'Where did this stinky bird get its arrogance? We're both mounts. What's there to be proud of!' The sea turtle rolled its eyes.
