<h4>Chapter 1317 – Beginning of the Dark Transformation</h4>


    In the ce where Yin and Yang interchanged in the Red Peak Straits, Thousand Saint opened the door and said, “Brother Turtle, the two Darkness True Saints from the World of Darkness have arrived. We can begin.”


    ck Turtle opened his eyes within his shell. A bright light shed through his dim yellow eyes, “I will have to trouble Thousand Saint for the rest of the things.”


    “It is my responsibility to help Brother Turtleplete the transformation.” Thousand Saint uttered, “However, the two True Saints from the World of Darkness know each other…”


    ck Turtle said, “No matter what, I will stand by Thousand Saint.”


    “Hahaha. Alright. Then I can throw aside my worries and give my best!” Thousand Saint burst intoughter. He gestured with his arm, “Brother Turtle, let’s go.”


    ck Turtle nodded and the turtle shell flew out of the hall. Once he was outside, his deep voice bellowed through the pce, “My loyal subjects, this is the time for you to protect me.”


    Kaboom –


    Suddenly, the Red Fire Stone walls of the pce started to vibrate violently. Big chunks of stone fell and created a ck hole on the ground. One by one, burly people with tyrannical auras started to walk out from the ground. They kneeled down.


    “Protect Old Ancestor!”


    “Protect Old Ancestor!”


    ck Turtle gestured, “Let’s go.”


    The mass of people rose and moved into a formation that wrapped around Thousand Saint and ck Turtle. This formation moved towards the prison.


    Things proceeded smoothly and nothing went wrong.


    The entire prison was being guarded by passionate Sea n members. ck Turtle turned and asked, “Thousand Saint, where are the two True Saints?”


    Thousand Saint raised his head towards the prison, “They are already inside.”


    He was not surprised by this. The aura from the transformation would be detected by the two True Saints.


    “Mm.” ck Turtle acknowledged simply and entered the prison.


    The long paths led to the deepest end of the prison. When the doors opened, they revealed Hundred Saint and Qin Yu who were both surrounded by darkness.


    Thousand Saint gestured, “This is Hundred Saint…”


    Qin Yu greeted, “I am Ten Thousand Saint…”


    Hundred, Thousand and Ten Thousand. This was such a coincidence.


    Thousand Saint’s mouth twitched. Even if he was going to give a false name, couldn’t hee up with something more serious?


    ck Turtle calmly cupped his hands together, “Thank you foring here. Once today’s events are over, I will repay all of you.”


    Hundred Saint’s expression was cold and he remained silent. Yet, Qin Yuughed, “ck Turtle, you don’t need to be so polite. We are here because we will have gains from this…so, let’s begin.”


    “Alright.”


    ck Turtle stepped into the deepest portion of the prison. Cang Zhu and her brother opened their eyes with a simr look of hatred.


    “Old Ancestor!”


    Deep within their eyes, helplessness could be seen.


    It was obvious that the time hade. When the Dark Transformation wasplete, they would die.


    ck Turtle’s eyes swept past them, “Don’t me me. This is your destiny.” He walked towards the siblings and sat down cross-legged, “Thousand Saint, please proceed.”


    Thousand Saint nodded, “Brother Turtle, rest assured.” He stepped forward and a thick nket of darkness instantly gushed out from empty space. It turned into a dark mist that flooded everything.


    Cang Zhu and Cang Hua both froze and their faces contorted with pain. Blood seeped out from their skin and dripped onto the floor.


    This blood seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, and it moved like a living thing.


    Slowly, seals started toe alive, sucking in the blood of the siblings. The seals glowed with a red hue.


    However, the red light was not cut by darkness but instead connected together with it to form a strange red ck mixture. It gave a cold and unsettling feeling.


    “Ah!”


    Within his shell, ck Turtle screamed in pain and happiness…the Dark Transformation had begun!


    Thousand Saint said, “Hundred Saint and Ten Thousand Saint, please enter the Dark Transformation array. Take note to hide your aura. Once Qin Yu appears, let''s work together to crush him!”


    He paused and his tone grew serious, “Please do not interrupt the process of the transformation. If anything goes wrong, we will all be med.”


    This was the key for Thousand Saint to start the transformation. No one dared to act recklessly when it came to the rules of the World of Darkness.


    Hundred Saint remained expressionless as he stepped into the darkness.


    Qin Yu chuckled, “Of course. We wouldn’t dare to cause trouble.”


    However, why would he bother about the rules of the World of Darkness?


    He had made so many preparations beforehand just for this. It would be a waste not to interfere. After all, his objective was to save the siblings.


    Hence, Thousand Saint was wrong, he waspletely wrong!


    ……


    He flew past the boundless sea of the Red Peak Straits toe to an area that was covered inplete white. A strong gust of wind rolled through, picking up a mass of snow and ice that cried solemnly in the air.


    The sky which was originally dark and gloomy became pitch ck. A terrifying aura was released with a crushing pressure. It was hard for the two of them to breathe.


    In the camp, the Dragon Saint rose. The transformation had begun!


    This matter involved the rules of the Vast Brightness World. Because the will of the world shed against this, there would be a catastrophe. The wild winds that arose now were just the beginning of the catastrophe.


    However, the Dragon Saint was not worried about this. Since ck Turtle dared to activate the transformation, he must have made his preparations.


    The key was Qin Yu. This was a good chance to kill ck Turtle. If he wanted to take action, this was the best moment.


    Will hee?


    He already knew that three Darkness True Saints were in the Red Peak Straits. Normal people would back off. However, Qin Yu might not do it. He already knew how mysterious the World of Darkness was but he chose to make enemies with it.


    Outside the Lost Garden, he had fought against two True Saints: the Nether Saint and Thousand Saint. At the end, he and the Spring Masterbined forces to kill the Nether Saint. This must have made Qin Yu very confident…


    Now, if Qin Yu backed off and gave up on rescuing the siblings, the Dragon Saint would pretend that he was never here. However, if Qin Yu chose the other option…he was seeking his own death. The Dragon Saint would not mind stepping in to get a piece of the pie. After all, Qin Yu would die anyway and it was not wise to let the World of Darkness take away everything.


    ……


    Outside the prison, the surrounding Sea n cultivators suddenly roared.


    Blood mes erupted from their bodies and merged together before rushing towards the sky.


    This was their blood and flesh that instantly turned to ashes in the fire. Only their bones remained in the blood mes.


    Roar! Roar!


    Loud roars continued to sound and arge illusion appeared in the blood mes. It stood tall and roared angrily.


    Kaboom! Boom!


    That came from the churning of sea waves. Deep in the sea, under the influence of the will of the Vast Brightness World, undercurrents that formed rushed into the Red Peak Straits from all directions.


    This was a warning from the world!


    Thick, strong walls started to crumble under the force of the undercurrents. The entire city fell into chaos immediately as numerous buildings were crushed into pieces. Those Sea n members living within the city cried as they fled for their lives.


    The world was angry and even though it was only tiny waves, ordinary Sea n members could not withstand the force.


    The beginning of the Dark Transformation was also a cleansing of the Red Peak Straits. Only roughly ten percent of the Sea n members managed to survive.


    ck Turtle knew this and the person in charge, Thousand Saint was also well aware. However, they did not do anything. Those who were not worthy would die.


    Furthermore, killing these Sea n members also meant that the forces of the Vast Brightness World were spread out.


    Even if it was just a little, this was worth it for them.


    The beginning of the transformation sucked out ck Turtle’s energy into a ck pearl that floated between him, Cang Zhu and Cang Hua.


    Two thick light bands wrapped around the three. As the Dark Transformation began, darkness started to appear in the pearl. It entered the water and dispersed. At the same time, ck Turtle and the siblings’ aura continued to change.


    The Dark Transformation was not recognized by the Vast Brightness World. Especially with ck Turtle’s cultivation, his choice was regarded as a betrayal by the Vast Brightness World.


    Because of the punishment, many lives were taken and this was caused by the will of the Vast Brightness World. No one could avoid it.


    ck Turtle could not either!


    As such, he needed the siblings to be his sacrifice.


    When the catastrophe came, it would turn into darkness and it would purge Cang Hua and Cang Zhu, who were both integrated with his power.


    He would avoid the entire thing and keep the Dark Transformation energy to himself to start a new life.


    The actual process was moreplicated than this but a rough summary for us was sufficient.


    Everything proceeded smoothly.


    ck Turtle was very cautious and he made enough preparations. Cang Zhu and Cang Hua were perfect and they werepatible with him.


    This made the entire transformation process much faster. At most, everything would bepleted in half an hour.


    Thousand Saint led the transformation. If hepleted this smoothly, he would be able to receive rewards from the World of Darkness.


    After all, a sessful birth of a Darkness True Saint was extremely valuable to the World of Darkness.


    However, Thousand Saint was worried.


    Qin Yu had not appeared.


    The Dark Transformation process was when ck Turtle was at his weakest and it was also Qin Yu’sst chance of saving the siblings.


    Did he choose to leave?


    No, Qin Yu was still here!


    Thousand Saint sighed deeply. He felt like Qin Yu was hidden in the dark, observing the entire process of the Dark Transformation.


    Yes, it must be this. As time passed, the more this feeling in Thousand Saint grew stronger.


    Come on, Qin Yu, Make your move. I will personally bury you and take everything you have.


    In fact, Thousand Saint’s intuition was very urate. Qin Yu was indeed observing the entire process of the transformation.


    Not only that, he was already standing right in the middle of the transformation array.


    Qin Yu had already made his move…he flicked his fingers and the blood of ck Turtle entered into a dark red seal on the ground.


    The blood was instantly absorbed and the blood red light from the mark suddenly turned darker before returning back to normal.


    Sure enough, it did not reject the blood.


    Qin Yu nced at where the siblings were and then looked at the smiling ck Turtle with a sigh.


    Although he knew how vicious this turtle was long before, ck Turtle reached a new low in his eyes today.
