Honghuang: I Hide from Calamity in the North Sea, Yet All Clans Hail Me as Their Emperor

Lu Chen transmigrates into the Primordial World and becomes the Black Tortoise dwelling in the depths of the North Sea's Guixu. Others transmigrate and vie for the position of Sage. He looks down at his four legs and feels his scalp go numb. After Gonggong smashes Buzhou Mountain, isn't the Black Tortoise that Nüwa must slay to mend the sky none other than him? Fortunately, the [Myriad Tribulations Guixu Choice System] awakens. As long as he avoids tribulations and stays in seclusion to keep himself alive, he can obtain the Guixu Embryonic Membrane, the Xuanwu Sea-Suppressing Formation, and the Chaotic Molting Art. All Lu Chen wants is to tuck into his shell and lie low until the Journey to the West. But after he casually takes in a few small clans fleeing disaster, Guixu becomes a sacred refuge where all races can escape tribulations. He repeatedly insists he has no ambition to rule or become emperor, yet all beings kneel and cry out, “Emperor Xuan Yuan!” The Dragon Clan invades? He crushes them and puts them on guard duty. The tribulation of the three clans? He watches from seclusion. When Nüwa mends the sky, she personally comes to the North Sea to slay the Black Tortoise. All the beings of the Primordial World believe Lu Chen is doomed. But Lu Chen uses the [Chaotic Molting Art] rewarded by the System, leaving his old body for Nüwa to support the sky while his true form completes its transformation inside the shell. His old body bears Heaven's mandate. His new form wins freedom. The merit for supporting the sky, the merit for mending it, and the fortune of the North all converge upon one person. That day, the myriad races of the North emerge together from Guixu. Only then do the Sages realize that this North Sea Black Tortoise, who spends all day insisting he will never become emperor, already possesses the power to truly rule the Primordial World.
