<h4>Chapter 1958: Origin of the ck Tortoise</h4>


    When Zhao Hai entered the small courtyard, he looked around and saw nothing inside it. But being clean was better for Zhao Hai, so he didn’t care. The decorations inside the rooms were really good. There were tables, chairs, beds, and cabs. Moreover, the meditation room was well made.


    Zhao Hai also looked at the other buildings and felt satisfied. Then he took hismunicator out and called Zhang Feng. Before long, Zhang Feng’s face was seen. Seeing Zhang Feng’s face, Zhao Hai knew that he was currently on a task. Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Senior Brother, are you doing a task?”


    Zhang Feng nodded, “I’m currently doing a task. Where are you? Did you find a ce?”


    Zhao Hai nodded, “I found a good residence. It’s residence number 34 in Hengdao City. You cane over if you need anything. I’ll be in seclusion here.”


    Zhang Feng nodded, “It’s fine. There’s nothing wrong with the base. Just seclude in peace.”


    Zhao Hai nodded, “Be careful when you do your task. Those two beastmen might cause problems for you.”


    Zhang Feng nodded, “Don’t worry, we’ll be careful.” Zhao Hai ended the call and then went to the meditation room.


    Zhao Hai chose to close up in Hengdao City rather than the Great Realm of Cultivation’s base because the spiritual qi in the base wasn’t enough. He was also afraid that he would rm Hu Wang and Xiang Que.


    The reason Zhao Hai was closing up was because he wanted to understand the ck tortoise stamp and the vermillion bird stamp. Zhao Hai always felt that he wasn’t able to make full use of the vermillion bird stamp. Obtaining the ck tortoise stamp made Zhao Hai aware that he never found the correct method to control the vermillion bird stamp. Being given an opportunity, Zhao Hai would naturally want to capitalize on it.


    Moreover, Zhao Hai could feel that the vermillion bird stamp and the ck tortoise stamp weren’t ordinary. If he used them well, they would bring huge benefits to him. With this in mind, Zhao Hai decided that he should seclude himself in the meantime.


    Also, if Zhao Hai was sessful inprehending both stamps, the effects on the surroundings definitely wouldn’t be small. If a huge noise was made in the base, then it might be discovered by the beasts. Therefore, instead of secluding in the base, Zhao Hai decided to do it in Hengdao City.


    As he sat cross-legged inside the meditation room, Zhao Hai took out the ck tortoise stamp and ced it on hisp. He closed his eyes and recalled the information that was passed onto him by the ck tortoise. He moved his spiritual force ording to the method he received. Then he began refining the ck tortoise stamp.


    This wasn’t an easy task. Treasures like the ck tortoise stamp contain countless formations. If you don’t understand them, you won’t be able to make full use of them. If Zhao Hai wantsplete control over the ck tortoise stamp, then he needs to understand these formations. Then he could use these formations in several methods to fit the ck tortoise stamp in multiple roles.


    While Zhao Hai wasprehending the ck tortoise stamp, the Space was also hard at work. The formations inside the stamp have been collected and were being analyzed. Once these formations were analyzed, Zhao Hai would gain a substantial enhancement in his understanding of the stamp. This would also bring about unexpected changes in the Space.


    Zhao Haiprehended the ck tortoise seal for seven days. After seven days, Zhao Hai was finally able to refine the ck tortoise stamp. With this, Zhao Hai now has a full understanding on how to use the ck tortoise stamp.


    However, Zhao Hai still felt that something wasn’t right. As for what it is, he cannot say. When he held the ck tortoise seal, he didn’t have the feeling that it was an extension of his arms. Although the stamp could follow Zhao Hai’s instructions, it seems like itcked consciousness.


    Naturally, this consciousness didn’t mean a spirit. But it referred to how holding the tool just doesn’t feel right. You can use it, but it feels ufortable in the hand. It was awkward to use.


    Zhao Hai wouldn’t use such weapons. It must be known thatfort in handling artifacts has a huge effect on the life and death of a cultivator. Although Zhao Hai wasn’t afraid of danger, he would rather not use an artifact he wasn’tfortable in using.


    Therefore, although Zhao Hai could use the ck tortoise stamp, he still wanted to know why it feels awkward when he uses it.


    Zhao Hai haspletely refined the artifact, but it felt clunky. Zhao Hai couldn’t help but knit his brows. This was the first time he experienced this feeling.


    Zhao Hai opened his eyes and looked at the ck tortoise stamp. The surface of the stamp seems to be carved from blue jade. It was beautiful. But Zhao Hai was certain that this jade wasn’t like other jade he had seen before.


    Then a thought came to him. What if he tries tomunicate with the jade? When he thought of this, Zhao Hai was stunned. Then he thought about what would happen if he used his divergent abilities tomunicate with the ck tortoise stamp?


    When heprehended and refined the ck tortoise stamp, Zhao Hai used spiritual force, not his consciousness. Both were different from each other. Zhao Hai used his spiritual force to connect with the ck tortoise stamp because it was a habit he developed for many years. But upon getting the idea, Zhao Hai thought about using his consciousness tomunicate with the stamp and see what effect it would have.


    This thought became a seed that quickly germinated inside Zhao Hai’s brain. So he quickly acted on it. He closed his eyes and used his earth element ability tomunicate with the ck tortoise stamp.


    Before long, Zhao Hai discovered that it wasn’t working. As soon as his earth element ability got in contact with the ck tortoise stamp, a repulsive force appeared on the stamp. If Zhao Hai hadn’t refined the stamp, then it might have already attacked him.


    Zhao Hai couldn’t help but stare. He didn’t understand what was going on. He opened his eyes and looked at the ck tortoise stamp. Then he smacked himself in the head upon realizing that he was an idiot. The ck tortoise stamp belonged to the Water God, and yet he used his earth element ability tomunicate with it. No wonder it resulted in the stamp rejecting him.


    This can’t be med on Zhao Hai. In the past, he always used his earth element ability whenever hemunicated with jade. The ck tortoise stamp seems to be made of jade, so Zhao Hai instinctively used his earth element ability tomunicate with it.


    However, the ck tortoise stamp was filled with the purest water element. There was no ce for the earth element technique to cling on to a material of pure water.


    After thinking it through, Zhao Hai used his water element ability tomunicate with the ck tortoise stamp. Unlikest time, the connection was very smooth. The ck tortoise stamp didn’t repel him. But now, the thinking speed of the ck tortoise stamp wasn’t the same as Zhao Hai. However, since he has encountered this situation before, Zhao Hai wasn’t anxious and immediately adjusted his thinking speed to match the ck tortoise stamp.


    Zhao Hai didn’t slow his thinking speed down. This was because he believed that a high-level artifact like the ck tortoise stamp would have a fast thinking speed. Therefore, Zhao Hai increased his thinking speed. And before long, he reached the thinking speed of liquid silver.


    When Zhao Hai’s thinking speed was a hundred times the speed of liquid silver, he was finally able to sense something. Even so, his thinking speed was still very slow inparison. It was like a tractor trying to catch up to a supercar.


    Although Zhao Hai hasn’t caught up with the thinking speed of his target, he wasn’t worried. He continued to gradually increase his speed.


    Zhao Hai didn’t immediately match the thinking speed of the ck tortoise stamp because he wanted to slowly feel the emotionsing from it. Only by knowing the right emotions could Zhao Hai bettermunicate with the ck tortoise stamp. This was in line with what he learned over the years.


    After so many years ofmunicating with various things, Zhao Hai knew how important emotion was tomunication. If he couldn’t align his emotion to the ck tortoise stamp’s emotions, then he would never be able to fully integrate with its thoughts.


    As he felt the emotions of the ck tortoise stamp, Zhao Hai was soon able to get in line with it. This wasn’t because of Zhao Hai’s keen sense, but it was because the ck tortoise stamp’s emotions were very simple. It was an emotion of peace and tranquility. There were no other emotions.


    Although Zhao Hai was surprised, he soon adjusted his own emotions andmunicated with the ck tortoise stamp. He then began to feel like he had be a ck tortoise. He also began to uncover its origins.


    Zhao Hai felt that he was an ordinary being like Bubble. He lived a carefree life in his own subspace. In that subspace, the surroundings were filled with extremely pure water elements. He was living his best life.


    Then one day, an iparably powerful strength intruded his subspace, causing everything inside to vanish. The subspace also became smaller and smaller before totally disappearing. Then the space turned into a stamp. The stamp was held by a man in blue whose face Zhao Hai couldn’t see.


    This was the origin of the ck tortoise stamp. That man in blue was the Water God. As the Water God was refining the ck tortoise stamp, he looked for all kinds of water in the world and added it to the stamp. After many years, the stamp waspleted. Then the Water God amassed arge amount of water andpressed it to make Crystal City. And since the ck tortoise stamp was made out ofpressed subspace, the Water Godbined it with Crystal City to make them a pair.


    After that were scattered memories about the ck tortoise stamp being in a battle. Then the ck tortoise stamp lost its memories. The next moment, the ck tortoise stamp was already in the Soaring Dragon Realm. The Water God was never found again. Even the spiritual imprint that the Water God left in the stamp has vanished.


    After absorbing the memories of the ck tortoise stamp, Zhao Hai began to feel a rich amount of water qi around him. The water he felt was purer than when hemunicated with Bubble.


    Zhao Hai immersed himself in this feeling. He felt all kinds of water with different properties. Their attributes were different, their movements were different, and their purpose were different. However, there was onemon thing about them, all of them were water. It doesn’t matter if it was liquid or frozen, saltwater or freshwater, cloud or fog, medicinal or toxic, all of them were water. The essence of water inside them wouldn’t change. This time, Zhao Hai finally realized the essence of water, its origin.


    After some time, Zhao Hai woke up and withdrew his consciousness from the ck tortoise stamp. Zhao Hai could also feel that there was now a sense of closeness between him and the ck tortoise stamp. Although Zhao Hai didn’t use it, he could feel that the stamp had be part of his body. Before this, he only knew methods to control the ck tortoise stamp. But now, using it has be second nature. He can use any function of the ck tortoise stamp any time he wants.


    Zhao Hai gently stroked the back of the ck tortoise stamp. He knew that he hadpletely refined it. It can be said that his refining of the stamp wasn’t any less than the refining done by the Water God. The Water God created the ck tortoise stamp, so hispatibility with it was very high. At the same time, Zhao Haimunicated with the ck tortoise stamp and integrated it, making it akin to a part of his body.


    Even if you use a knife well, it was still a knife in the end. You would be morefortable with your finger than with a knife. This was the difference between Zhao Hai and the Water God. Zhao Hai treated the ck tortoise stamp as a part of his body while the Water God only treated it as a tool made for himself.
