I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 388: Old Turtle Obtains the Pill

This seems to be the top floor of the tower, not another space. At this moment, there is a long table here, with three white cloths on it, and three things placed on top.

They are a small tower that looks similar to the white tower but is only half a foot in size, a pill the size of a dragon's eye, and a jade slip.

When the old turtle saw these three things, his face lit up.

He speculated that this tower was some kind of treasure left behind by a human cultivator conducting experiments. Judging from the fact that there was a Gold Core stage monster inside, this tower was probably a spiritual treasure.

Now, when he saw that small tower, he thought that perhaps this small tower was the core that controlled the white tower.

Immediately, he reached out towards the white tower, but unexpectedly, a bolt of lightning appeared out of thin air on the white tower, knocking him back several zhang away.

"Is it some kind of restriction?"

The old turtle looked at the small tower in confusion, but didn't dare to approach again. He couldn't handle that bolt of lightning just now.

Staring at the small tower, the old turtle seemed to think of something, and his face gradually became solemn. After a while, he no longer looked at it, but instead turned his gaze to the pill on the side.

"Hmph, these human cultivators are truly cunning. Even after death, they still remember to add restrictions to the tower. If I'm not mistaken, according to the records left by my ancestors, many human cultivators' treasures have limitations and can only be used by humans. This prevents us monsters from using their treasures. But I didn't come for the treasure anyway. This pill looks extraordinary, so I'll take it first."

The old turtle thought this way in his heart. His family had always lived for a very long time, so they were quite knowledgeable about certain matters. He immediately thought of the truth behind it.

However, while staring at the pill on the side, he still felt a bit reluctant to look away from the small tower. After all, it was a spiritual treasure, and he was somewhat attached to it. Although he tried to convince himself that he didn't care, there was still a hint of sourness in his heart.

As for the pill on the side, although it had some restrictions, it didn't have the lightning like the small tower just now. With the old turtle's powerful spiritual power, he easily obtained the pill.

After sniffing it under his nose, he showed a happy expression.

"It doesn't seem to be a longevity pill, but the medicinal ingredients used to refine this pill are abundant. After taking it, it will definitely increase my cultivation. We turtles naturally cultivate slowly. Maybe this pill alone can help me reach the peak of the Gold Core stage, saving me hundreds of years of effort. In the future, I might even have a chance to reach the Nascent Soul stage."

With this thought, the old turtle was overjoyed, thinking that this trip was worth it.

Just as he was about to look at the third item, the jade slip, the teleportation array next to him lit up, making the old turtle suddenly alert.

"They're faster than us."

Lin Qing said in surprise. He didn't expect that after he and Ru Yue had dealt with the troublesome winged dragon monster, a monster had already arrived here ahead of them, and it seemed to be in the late Gold Core stage.

At this moment, the old turtle also looked at Lin Qing and Ru Yue. Both of their strengths were not weaker than his, which made him feel a hint of fear.

Lin Qing also saw the treasures on the table at this time, especially the small tower. He immediately thought of its use, and his eyes became extremely hot.

"My lord, we..."

Ruyue looked at the old turtle and hinted to Lin Qing.

Lin Qing naturally understood her meaning, but when he looked at the old turtle, he hesitated. After all, turtles are naturally good at defense, and he didn't think he could easily defeat Ruyue.

"When did you come in?" the old turtle suddenly asked.

He remembered the aura of a human cultivator he sensed when he first arrived at the tower. At that time, he had already realized his mistake, and now it seemed that he was not wrong at all. A human cultivator had arrived here in advance. However, this puzzled him because when the restriction on the attic was broken, there were only a group of monsters outside.

Lin Qing didn't want to say much in response to the old turtle's question. He simply replied, "We accidentally stumbled in. As for the treasures on the table, it seems that you have already taken one. Do you really need to intervene for the remaining two?"

Upon hearing Lin Qing's words, the old turtle hesitated for a moment. If it were only Lin Qing alone, he would definitely fight Lin Qing no matter what. But with Ruyue by his side, the two of them in the later stage of Gold Core made him more cautious.

At this moment, he glanced at the small tower and the jade slip on the table. He had just tried the small tower and couldn't obtain it. As for the jade slip, it was probably a human cultivator's technique or some kind of secret art, which he had no use for. It would be better to give up now and avoid further conflicts.

Thinking of this, the old turtle smiled and said, "Old turtle wants to live a few more years. Since both of you have come here, you can take these two treasures. I will leave first."

After the old turtle finished speaking, he walked towards a teleportation array in the corner of this space.

When Lin Qing and Ruyue came in earlier, they also saw this teleportation array. Needless to say, this should be the way to teleport outside the tower.

At this moment, as they watched the old turtle walk onto the teleportation array, Lin Qing and Ruyue didn't make any moves. The old turtle seemed very sensible, and they didn't want to start another conflict. Besides, the small tower on the table was still there.

As the teleportation array lit up with white light, the old turtle's figure disappeared.

Next, Lin Qing and Ruyue didn't hesitate and both approached the table. Lin Qing looked at the small tower that was only half a foot tall and tried to pick it up with his hand. Unlike the old turtle just now, Lin Qing easily held the tower in his hand.

"The Qiankun Tower?"

After flipping through it, Lin Qing read the name of the tower written on the bottom.

"My lord, this is probably the core that controls this tower. Why don't you try refining it?" Ruyue said from the side.

Upon hearing Ruyue's words, Lin Qing nodded and immediately sat down to try refining it. He was currently inside the tower, and if he left now, he probably wouldn't be able to take the tower with him. If he could refine this small tower, he might be able to make the entire tower his own. To be honest, although he and Ruyue easily passed through all the monsters in the tower, it didn't mean that the tower was useless. Leaving aside other things, if he kept it in his family, it could be used to train the younger generations, which would definitely bring many benefits.

While Lin Qing was trying to refine the Qiankun Tower, Ruyue picked up the jade slip. As her divine sense entered it, she occasionally showed a surprised or melancholic expression.

After the old turtle and Lin Qing and Ruyue arrived at the top of the tower, no more monsters came. Most of the Gold Core monsters had already reached the last level, but most of them were defeated only in the mid-stage of Gold Core. Only a few managed to reach the later stage of Gold Core, but they couldn't advance any further. As for these failed monsters, they were automatically teleported out of the tower when they were unable to resist, without any harm done to them.

It seems that this tower is relatively gentle and powerful among the trial-type treasures. For similar treasures, if the person inside fails, they will inevitably suffer greatly, and there may even be cases where they cannot be teleported in time, resulting in missing limbs or even death.
