The toad stretched out its claw, trying to touch the newly emerged dragon horn.
But it was too small to reach. The tiny toad squatting there was not even as big as a watermelon.
Su He’s dragon head was flat, and the toad couldn’t even reach its nose. Just as it was about to jump up to touch, it saw Dragon Turtle slowly open its eyes, a pair of dragon pupils glowing with golden light staring at it.
Following the line of sight, all the majesty of the Dragon Turtle was pressing on it.
The toad was instantly immobilized, trembling all over. Finally, it lowered its body and appeared a hundred feet away, clutching its chest and panting, with two strings of bubbles coming out of the corners of its mouth.
Soul beasts are not good at fighting. Every new ability they gain has nothing to do with fighting, all are auxiliary.
Communication, storage, express delivery… even the mysterious realm opened by the ninth rank, all have nothing to do with fighting.
The toad was able to tame the seal not by force. The seal was raised by it from a small one to a big silly dog now.
The Giant Turtle it cultivated itself, it can’t even get close.
The toad is not afraid of fighting. Soul beasts are elusive, basically they won’t be killed, at most they will be sealed – this small world is no different from being sealed to it.
But it fears the majesty of the Dragon Turtle. Majesty is the hardest thing to resist, neither real nor illusory.
“Hey, hey!” The toad looked at Su He: “This is blatant revenge!”
Su He shook his head, coming back to his senses. He seemed to have heard Feng Yaya’s voice in his sleep. He barely opened his eyes and saw an ugly green toad in front of him.
It startled him.
Seeing Su He come back to his senses and no longer release his aura randomly, the toad carefully appeared in front of him again.
“Where’s the Giant Turtle?” The toad asked in confusion. There was no trace of the Giant Turtle around, as if it had never followed.
“It committed suicide.” Su He replied.
Indeed, it was suicide. Su He couldn’t beat her even if there were three of him.
The toad was stunned, had it gone mad?
Thinking about it, it was indeed possible. That turtle had been unstable since it hatched, biting anyone it caught, eating anything, without any Spiritual Intelligence. It was plausible that it would commit suicide.
It was more concerned about another matter, blinking its big eyes at Su He: “Did you… advance again?”
Su He nodded.
His own state was not right, his perception was not sharp, but the mirror showed clearly:
Status: Weak
True Blood: 98%
Sacrificial Bone: 50%
Internal Organs: 52%
All three indicators have passed fifty percent, and True Blood is even closer to perfection.
The toad was overjoyed and danced with joy. The faster the Dragon Turtle progressed, the sooner it could leave. This was the best news it had heard recently.
It was even happier than being a commander.
Seeing it so happy, Su He felt that it was too early to be happy, so he told it the news that the Giant Turtle had said, that the toad had imprisoned itself for two thousand years.
Then the whole toad was not good, it was stunned there, and it had not moved for a long time.
Even Su He’s majesty couldn’t wake it up.
Feng Yaya fell from the sea surface with a gurgle, her hands floating above her head with the water, her eyes tightly closed. She stretched out her little feet to explore around, confirming that she was at the bottom of the sea before opening her eyes.
She tilted her head to look at the stunned toad, poked its soft belly, and the toad didn’t move.
Feng Yaya’s eyes lit up, she gently hooked on its belly, and a pocket like a kangaroo’s opened. She peeked inside.
She had long envied the ability of soul beasts to take treasures out of their bags every day.
A pouch for raising young?
Su He was stunned. He didn’t spend much time with the toad and didn’t know it had this function.
This pocket actually had the fluctuation of spatial energy. As soon as the dragon horn sprouted, Su He’s Divine Sense became more sensitive. The moment the pocket opened, he sensed the fluctuation of space – Su He didn’t understand the energy of the side, but with the external space, Su He was very sensitive to the spatial energy.
He swept his Divine Sense over it.
Inside the pocket: a big knife, a broken sword, a broken copper bell… a bellyband, a lingerie, rouge and powder…
A sailor pulled Feng Yaya back and closed the toad’s pocket.
“Stay away from the toad in the future, as far away as possible!” Su He said seriously.
Feng Yaya didn’t understand why, and when she was thrown onto the turtle shell by the sailor, she instinctively reached for the two newly emerged dragon horns.
Suddenly, Su He shivered all over, as if he had been poked in the waist from behind when he was a human, and the whole turtle shivered.
This horn is very sensitive!
A pair of dragon horns rooted in the Sense Realm are related to Divine Sense and intention. Now they have just sprouted and can’t stand stimulation.
“Huh?” Feng Yaya seemed to have discovered a new world. She laughed and poked the dragon horn. Su He endured not to make a dragon chant.
The toad woke up leisurely, looking at Su He with resentment.
Why did he have to tell it such a cruel thing? It’s not known how long it will take for the Dragon Turtle’s divine charm in the small world to dissipate. You have to advance first anyway. Isn’t it good to hide this and take care of the fragile psychology of a thousand-year-old frog?
It sighed faintly: “Follow me.”
It swam ahead.
They went for miles. Su He, carrying Feng Yaya on his back, followed the toad onto a large island. If it weren’t for his ability to see the boundary, he would have thought it was a large continent.
There were mountains, jungles, and plains on the island. The toad led them around half of the island to the coast under the cliff.
On the shore were giant stone eggs the size of water tanks.Su He squinted his eyes. It was not uncommon for the seaside rocks to be eroded by the sea water over time, forming stone eggs.
However, these stone eggs gave Su He a very bad feeling. They were like dead fetuses!
Upon closer inspection, he could faintly sense the aura of the Dragon Turtle from them.
It was a feeling of death, solidification, and coldness.
Feng Yaya pouted, she didn’t like this place.
The toad pulled out a smoking pipe from his pocket, took two puffs, and asked, “What should we do with this egg, which is about to lose all the divine aura of the Dragon Turtle?”
The aura of the Dragon Turtle on this egg was mixed, although very faint, it was indeed there.
Su He stretched out his claw and tapped the stone egg, “Is this how the Giant Turtle you raised came about?”
The toad nodded, “Sometimes new eggs are abandoned, not completely dead, and I collect them.”
Su He quickly caught the key words, abandoned, alive!
Just as he was about to ask, he heard a whip crack, a spatial rift appeared, a tree was waving behind the rift, pushing seven or eight stone eggs out of the rift.
Then the tree branch retracted, and the rift closed.
“Look!” The toad pointed his smoking pipe at the place where the rift had just appeared, “Just like that.”
“What is that place?” Su He asked. Behind that rift, there was a disgusting aura.
Let’s get out of here!
For some reason, seeing that spatial rift and tree branch made him feel uneasy, “Let’s go!”
Let’s leave this place first.
“Okay!” Feng Yaya’s eyes lit up, she always felt that something would happen if they stayed here.
Su He turned around and left. The toad thought he was making a fuss about nothing. But it also followed closely, not slow at all.
“Don’t worry, I’ve been here for thousands of years, and I’ve seen that tree branch no less than two thousand nine hundred times. We can’t get in, and the tree branch can’t get out.”
If it could get in, it would have gone in to investigate long ago. Trapped for thousands of years, it was clear that there was something unusual here, but it just couldn’t get in.
It was a soul beast, and it wasn’t afraid of death.
However, at this moment, another crisp sound rang out, a spatial rift directly opened in front of Su He, and the tree branch behind the rift was still in the motion of whipping.
Before the tree branch could react.
Su He roared, and his divine power had already blasted up. The wave under him turned sharply and plunged into the sea.
Even the toad, who was used to seeing rifts, felt something was wrong. It jumped up and pressed on Su He’s shell, ready to teleport with him.
Just as the light was about to rise, a bunch of tree branches surged out of the rift, instantly entwining Su He and pulling back – but they couldn’t pull him.
A huge droplet of water condensed on Su He’s back, using the Divine Ability to pin himself to the ground.
Divine Ability was dead, but the turtle was alive, and the Divine Ability was not only used for attack.
The tree branch couldn’t pull him, but instead pulled the spatial rift over, opened its huge mouth, and swallowed the three of them in one gulp.
The rift closed instantly.
The scene in front of them changed, and it was dark all around, with damp and rotten air.
Tall locust trees swayed without wind, and the collision of leaves made a rustling sound, like grinding teeth, or like ghostly laughter.
“Eh~haha~”
“Eh~haha~”
This kind of sound came from all directions.
“Over there!” Feng Yaya suddenly pointed at a large locust tree in front of them. There was a human face on the trunk of the tree, laughing terrifyingly.
“Caught it! Caught it!” The human face screamed excitedly.
A flash of light passed, and the toad’s skill finally activated, taking Su He and Feng Yaya and disappearing in an instant, reappearing in mid-air, then falling from the sky, landing right on the human-faced tree.
Crack!
Su He’s armor pressed down from the treetop, crushing the entire tree inch by inch. The human face was instantly terrified.
“Ah—uh—”
Before the scream could fully come out, it was crushed.
The entire tree exploded into a sky full of wood chips with a bang, and a few strands of silver flashed through the wood chips.
The wood chips enveloped everything like fog, and a grating sound came from Turtle Mountain.
“Ah!” Feng Yaya screamed, several blisters appeared on her skin, with tree buds sprouting inside. The wood chips that fell on her wanted to take root and sprout on her arm.
But as soon as they broke through the skin and touched Feng Yaya’s blood, they instantly turned into a puff of black smoke and dissipated.
The other wood chips instantly moved away from Feng Yaya, this girl was poisonous!
A jade pendant around Feng Yaya’s waist exploded and turned into a thin membrane covering her, protecting her layer by layer. This was a measure left by Su Huanian, which would automatically protect her when it sensed danger – it hadn’t been activated when she was hit away by the thunder ape!
It was unknown whether the thunder ape was too weak to hurt Feng Yaya or the wood chips were too strange.
The toad immediately entered a semi-illusory state. The wood chips flew past without touching it.
Su He condensed a wave of water under him and quickly rushed out of the fog formed by the wood chips.
The wood chips screamed when they touched his wave, and instantly turned into black smoke and ashes.
Afraid of water?
Su He waved his claw, and rain fell from the sky above the wood chips, all the wood chips screamed and turned into ashes.
Only a few clusters on Feng Yaya’s arm were still jumping, trying to drill in but couldn’t break through the thin membrane formed by the jade pendant.
Su He flicked a droplet of water over, and the wood chips dissipated.
Rain continued to fall from the sky. Su He couldn’t summon wind or rain, he just condensed a water ball and exploded it in mid-air.
The other locust trees around them screamed, pulled out their roots, and ran away waving their branches, with black smoke constantly coming out of them.
They crossed streams and walked through ponds, not afraid of the water at all, only afraid of the rain that Su He condensed.This Turtle is poisonous!
In an instant, there wasn’t a single locust tree left around.
“Are they afraid of your water?” The toad returned to its solid state.
“No!” Su He shook his head. At least the tree that dragged them in wasn’t afraid. At that time, there were waves under Su He, but the branches directly passed through the waves and bound them.
“What is this place?” Su He looked around and asked.
He was asking the toad. Even if the toad had never been here, it should have seen a lot in its thousands of years of life.
The toad shook its head.
Su He slowly retreated. On the ground, there was a silver-white line, like a small snake, jumping towards him.
It was only as thick as a grain of rice and was made up of gas.
This was the silver light that flickered inside the locust tree after it exploded. The locust tree was very strange, but this silver line gave Su He a very familiar feeling.
There was a breath of Dragon Turtle emanating from the silver line.
Very familiar.
It was extremely similar to the scent of the turtle bead condensed by the Giant Turtle.
But at this time and place, even if it was a material burst out from killing a monster, Su He wouldn’t let it wrap around him. But this breath line seemed to have recognized him. Wherever Su He went, it followed. When Su He stopped, it wrapped around him.
The thunderbird roared down, the breath scattered and then recondensed, even more condensed than before.
“Hit it!” Su He said.
Feng Yaya and the toad looked at Su He in confusion. From the beginning, This Turtle was acting strange, dodging and flashing on the ground, and even launching electric attacks—was it hit?
They couldn’t see it! Su He immediately confirmed.
Thousands of water droplets fell, passing through the breath and smashing the ground into pits.
It was useless.
Su He opened his throat and let out a divine roar.
But the breath followed the divine roar and shot onto him, drilling into his mouth. As soon as it entered, it turned into a cool and moist sensation.
This feeling was so familiar!
Damn it, this breath definitely had something to do with the Giant Turtle and the already dead Dragon Turtle!
Only she could grasp the Divine Sense.
“Guardian!” Su He shouted urgently. The toad was stunned, but Feng Yaya had already jumped onto Su He’s shell, pulling out two small tiger claws from her pouch. The fierce sword aura on the tiger claws was surging.
She rarely used the trump card her mother prepared for her, but it wasn’t that she didn’t have one. Even if it was a Traverse Heaven realm, as long as they dared to stand still and let her hit, she could beat them half to death!
Su He immediately closed his eyes and looked inward, his consciousness directly drilling into the Sense Realm sea of consciousness, mobilizing all the spiritual power in his body to surge towards the mirror.
Checking the changes in his body at this moment.
The sea of consciousness in the Sense Realm was churning. Divine Sense was being consumed.
The mirror not only consumed spiritual power, but also consumed more Divine Sense.
About half a moment later, the attributes appeared in the mirror:
Status: Weak (+3)
Attributes that weren’t displayed hadn’t changed. A breath made him weaker by +3. Was this becoming weaker or was it alleviating?
Su He carefully pondered.
It was recovery. This breath was helping him recover his body.
Deep in the locust tree forest, an inconspicuous half-withered little locust tree pulled its roots out of the ground, dancing with excitement.
“Haha! It absorbed it, it absorbed it!” It laughed joyfully, but gradually became heart-wrenching, falling to the ground and crying bitterly, its branches slapping the ground like arms.
That damned Dragon Turtle, even after it died, it still sealed him here, in this locust tree forest, for nearly six thousand years… He couldn’t escape no matter what.
This little Dragon Turtle could absorb its breath, it must be its descendant.
Great, really great.
He could finally leave…
He had seen Dragon Turtles before. Three thousand years ago, this toad had also brought a Dragon Turtle here, but that Dragon Turtle had a mixed bloodline and couldn’t even sense the Dragon Turtle breath in the stone egg. It was simply a waste!
He, a noble of the spirit race, was sealed in a locust tree forest by a dead Dragon Turtle for six thousand years—even if it was a living Dragon Turtle’s seal, he would have accepted it.
He would kneel and beg for mercy, allowing himself to be killed or scraped.
But that Dragon Turtle was dying, and couldn’t even make a sound at its last moment. With one look before it died, it sealed him here.
This feeling of suffocation…
Who the hell isn’t a Traverse Heaven?!
