For these gods who have lived for so long, this may indeed be a trivial matter.
The Lonely God patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't think about it anymore. You'll get used to it eventually."
Xiao Wenbing gave a wry smile. Perhaps only after he gets used to this kind of thing will he be qualified to become a true god.
The Lonely God suddenly smiled strangely and said, "Little friend, do you still want to stand up for the Flame Realm and avenge it?"
“Yes.” Xiao Wenbing readily admitted. Now that the other party already knew, there was no need to hide it anymore: “This junior does not have the habit of giving up halfway, so I would like to ask for your help.”
"Alas, what a pity." The lonely god sighed and said, "Young friend, it's not that I don't want to help you, but over the years, those brats have been very respectful to me. Without a reason, I really feel embarrassed to teach them a lesson."
"Is that so?" Xiao Wenbing forced a smile, unable to hide the disappointment on his face.
"Alright, alright, stop looking so gloomy." The lonely god shook his head and said, "This old man will do you a favor and find you a helper."
"Help?" Xiao Wenbing looked at him strangely. His opponent was one of the thirteen powerful forces in the God Realm. If someone could really help him, it would be this ancient god with unparalleled divine power in front of him.
But judging from his tone, it seems he doesn't want to get involved. So who would dare to challenge such a powerful force?
A thought struck him, and Xiao Wenbing exclaimed, "You're talking about the Turtle God, sir!"
"That's right, kid, you're smart." The Lonely God chuckled and said, "It's that lazy tortoise. If it were to take action, it would definitely be able to sweep away thousands of troops, and no one could stop it."
"Senior is joking." Xiao Wenbing shook his head repeatedly and said, "Although Senior Turtle God has boundless divine power, given its personality, I'm afraid even if those gods come directly to it to show off their power, it will just sleep without a care. It's simply impossible to get it to take action."
The lonely god smiled and stroked his long beard, looking confident and composed.
As Xiao Wenbing watched, doubt crept into his mind. Could it be that this old man really had a solution?
Volume 22, Chapter 58: The Old Tortoise's Weakness (Part 1)
------------------------
A ray of sunlight gently shone on the face of the lonely god, revealing his aged features.
Xiao Wenbing looked up at the old face, unable to understand why he would choose such a wretched body.
Although gods can change their appearance in any way, this lonely god with such an aged face is truly unique.
After waiting for a long time, the old man finally spoke slowly.
"Back when our generation was in power, I was fearless, but I still have to admire these two people."
Xiao Wenbing was quite surprised; how did the topic suddenly come up? However, he was also very interested in knowing about these ancient gods, and even the two women beside him began to listen attentively.
"One of those two is the ancestor of playing with grenades."
Xiao Wenbing immediately looked at Feng Baiyi. Although her face was expressionless, a bright light still flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"The other one is that lazybones."
Xiao Wenbing was taken aback and blurted out, "Turtle God?"
“Exactly.” The Lonely God sighed for a long time and said, “Actually, we all call it Lazybones and Lazy Turtle, but in our hearts, we all admire it very much, because it is the most diligent god among us in cultivation.”
Xiao Wenbing looked at him with a strange expression; this change was a bit too drastic.
The idea that someone who only thinks about sleeping all day is actually the most diligent cultivator among those ancient gods sounds rather odd.
"What we truly admire about that lazy man is that he pioneered a completely different path in his cultivation methods compared to ours."
"What?" This time, Xiao Wenbing was greatly surprised. After a moment of contemplation, he cautiously asked, "Could it be that Senior Turtle God has actually switched to Buddhism?"
"Buddhist sect..." The Lonely God sneered disdainfully, saying, "That new sect is far removed from us. In our time, there was no such thing as Buddhism."
Xiao Wenbing nodded slightly. In that case, the old tortoise certainly couldn't switch to the Buddhist lineage.
The solitary god gazed into the distance and slowly said, "After the lazy tortoise cultivated to the level of a god, it suddenly had a whimsical idea and chose a unique cultivation method that is very different from ours."
Xiao Wenbing felt an unbearable itch in his heart. This old man had been talking for so long but hadn't given an answer. Wasn't he deliberately keeping him in suspense?
Fortunately, after he urged him for a while, the Lonely God finally gave an answer.
"After we gods have achieved success in our cultivation, we will condense our own divine domain. The larger the divine domain, the stronger the divine power, the faster the divine power is replenished, and the more thorough the understanding of divine power becomes. Therefore, when we cultivate, we always try our best to increase our divine domain."
Xiao Wenbing thought of the old man's vast divine realm, comparable to a world, and suddenly felt enlightened.
Indeed, only with the support of such a vast and boundless divine realm could this old man possess such formidable and extraordinary strength.
A thought suddenly occurred to Xiao Wenbing.
When he encountered the old tortoise a second time, he didn't seem to sense the tortoise's divine domain. However, judging from the old tortoise's behavior, both of those encounters were its true form. Since its true form was present, where was its divine domain?
Seeing Xiao Wenbing's thoughtful expression, Gu Gu Shen laughed and said, "You've got a clue now, haven't you?"
“Yes.” Xiao Wenbing looked up and asked, “The divine realm of the Turtle God is different from others.”
“That’s right.” The Lonely God smiled with satisfaction: “The divine domain that this old tortoise has condensed is indeed extraordinary. It actually chose to condense the divine domain within its own body.”
Xiao Wenbing and the two women exchanged glances, both seeing the horror in each other's eyes.
Although they had only just begun to refine the divine realm, they already had a deep understanding of its power and function.
The divine realm is actually a kind of private space belonging to the gods.
However, this space was created by the gods using their divine power, and only through its continuous improvement can the gods unleash their true power. Once this space is taken away by other gods, their divine power will be greatly diminished.
Such mustard seed spaces are usually developed gradually based on a certain divine artifact. Only the power of a divine artifact can support this endless space.
However, according to the Lonely God, the old tortoise actually created a divine realm directly on its own body, which was practically an act of suicide.
Once its divine body can no longer withstand the demands of the space, it will explode and die completely, with no chance of being saved.
"How did Senior Turtle God come up with this... this outlandish idea?"
The lonely god smiled bitterly.
"Heaven knows how that lazy turtle came up with this idea. It even tried to make us jump at first, but what we didn't expect was that it actually succeeded and even solidified the divine realm to an unparalleled level of solidity."
"Unparalleled in the world? Is the Turtle God's realm even more powerful than yours, old man?" Xiao Wenbing asked in surprise.
He had witnessed the divine realm of the solitary god, so he found this claim hard to believe.
The Lonely God considered for a moment and said, "It's hard to say, they each have their strengths. However, if the two of them were to fight, my divine domain is far less sturdy than itss, so I wouldn't be able to harm it in the slightest."
"Is it really that amazing?"
"That's right, its divine realm is its physical body, the two are one, and apart from the heavenly lightning that destroyed the old man, there is nothing else in the world that can harm it."
Xiao Wenbing's eyes lit up. If it really was that powerful, should he choose that cultivation method in the future? "Senior, do you know how Senior Turtle God cultivated?"
Seemingly seeing through his thoughts, the Lonely God laughed and said, "Little friend, only the old tortoise knows its cultivation method. You have a debt of gratitude to its precious shell for transferring your cultivation power. Go ask it, and it will definitely tell you."
Xiao Wenbing was greatly moved, but he gave a sheepish laugh and stopped mentioning the matter. Instead, he asked, "Senior, do you have any way to get the Turtle God to help me?"
The lonely man smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll have to do this yourself."
"Please give me some guidance, senior."
"When you were attacking that minor supreme being, the auras of more than ten gods appeared. You remembered them all, didn't you?"
"Of course I remember."
"Alright, then simulate their aura and condense a thousand divine power crystals."
Xiao Wenbing trembled, staring dumbfounded at the old senior. After a moment, he smiled bitterly and said, "You must be joking, sir. Where am I supposed to get a thousand divine power crystals?"
The Lonely God glared at him and said, "You can even produce the Origin Crystal, why would you care about such a small thing?"
"Alas, if only it were a primordial crystal. I still have some in stock, but condensing a new divine power crystal is no easy task." Xiao Wenbing pondered for a moment and said, "Although I have now cultivated a divine body, it will still take at least a month to condense a new divine power crystal. If I were to simulate all of those dozen or so auras, wouldn't it take more than a year?"
"A year or so it is," the Lonely God said irritably. "Spending a year or so to get Lazy Turtle to take the lead, isn't that a good deal?"
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Wenbing said, "That's true, but what use would it be if I condensed a thousand divine power crystals? I can't very well give them to the Turtle God as gifts."
While divine power crystals are valuable, they are even more coveted treasures for supreme immortals.
However, for an ancient deity like the Turtle God, it had little practical value. Therefore, Xiao Wenbing did not believe that a mere thousand divine power crystals could persuade the Turtle God to come out of seclusion.
"Of course it's not a gift. Although that lazy turtle doesn't have anything worthwhile to offer, it's lazy by nature and has no hobbies, so it wouldn't be interested in these thousand divine power crystals."
"If I don't like it, why would I bother making it?"
"Of course, it's for frying turtles."
"Fried...turtle?"
A bead of cold sweat trickled down Xiao Wenbing's forehead. What did this mean?
"Don't worry, I'm an old turtle's best friend, we can talk about anything. I know his personality inside and out. Go blow him up once, and I guarantee he'll help you."
With a slight twitch of his lips, Xiao Wenbing thought to himself, "Anyone who makes a friend like you is truly incredibly unlucky. And sending him to blow up that old turtle is far too risky."
"Sigh, you idiot, the old tortoise is definitely sleeping. All you need to do is pack up the divine power crystal, place it next to it, tamper with the timing of the explosion, and then leave quickly." The Lonely God chuckled. "I know the old tortoise is lazy, but he has one redeeming quality: when he's interrupted from his sleep, he's absolutely furious and won't recognize anyone. Then, when he senses the presence of these little guys, hehe..."
Xiao Wenbing broke out in a cold sweat again. Looking at the old man's face now, there was no trace of kindness left.
However, this plan to frame someone is indeed brilliant. If it is actually implemented, those people will definitely suffer in silence, unable to express their grievances.
Glancing at the expectant look on the lonely god's face, Xiao Wenbing gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I'll listen to you this once, senior."

------------------------
Having made up his mind, Xiao Wenbing no longer hesitated and turned to leave.
The lonely god grabbed him and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Please speak."
"The old tortoise possesses extraordinary abilities, and even if it's asleep, those thousand divine crystals won't be able to harm it in the slightest. I'm afraid that after you explode, it's questionable whether it will even wake up."
