Vol.2 – Chapter 22 – Curse


“Ah! I’ve said I can’t leave!” Feng Yaya waved her hand to interrupt the summoning, landing again on the turtle shell.

The more bizarre the environment, the more likely someone would cause trouble. Su He warned Feng Yaya not to go anywhere. He increased the flow rate of the turtle yuan in his Mind’s Eye, nourishing his body to the maximum effect.

This place was strange, with no discernible boundaries, and an inexhaustible supply of turtle yuan, which was perfect for fully restoring his body.

Su He could doubt his own judgment, but the Divine Ability formed by the condensation of heaven and earth would never be wrong.

Even if there were areas of knowledge that Su He was unaware of, they would definitely appear on the Divine Ability: unknown injuries, unknown poisons, and such.

There was not enough evidence to prove safety.

The turtle yuan circulated throughout his body, cool and refreshing, as if he was soaking in a mountain spring on a summer day. The spring water flowed gently, making his whole body feel comfortable.

His bones and flesh, like dried sponges, gulped down the turtle yuan. In his True Blood, cargo ships appeared, transporting goods to his entire body.

Su He was recovering rapidly.

Far away, a locust tree quietly pulled its body out from the ground, standing on its roots and looking over excitedly, its leaves trembling.

Although it couldn’t see the internal condition of the little Dragon Turtle, judging by its slight trembling, it should be absorbing and digesting the power of the Dragon Turtle.

Good!

The locust tree wished it could laugh out loud, but it dared not show its human face. The Little Girl was playing around, but she was clearly on guard, even her tiger claws were not taken off.

Just then, a breath broke through the seal and fell into the locust forest, and the Little Girl floated up, swaying.

The locust tree was taken aback, cursing in its heart, and all its leaves fell off.

Those damned merfolk wanted to summon the Dragon Turtle and the others out!

The first one was this girl, because she had destroyed the most locust trees. The second one should be the Dragon Turtle. At most, there was only one toad left – what use did I have for this toad?

Bastards!

It had been six thousand years since they had this slight opportunity! Inhuman!

But one day when I break the seal, I will teach those merfolk outside a lesson!

Seeing the hope of breaking the seal disappearing before its eyes, the locust tree was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, not knowing what to do. Then it saw the Little Girl wave her hand to interrupt the summoning and fall down again.

The old locust tree was dumbfounded, then overjoyed.

Feng Yaya pouted, “I can’t go, I have to guard the Big Turtle!”

Just now, the summoning came again, along with it was a desperate voice of a beautiful lady, “My lord, cooperate with the summoning, I will take you out.”

Feng Yaya blinked, why did she call me lord? Is she asking me for something? That won’t work either, she has to wait in line behind the Big Turtle.

Feng Yaya sat in the bird’s nest on Turtle Mountain, waving her hand and shattering several approaching locust trees.

She didn’t use the power of the tiger claws, as that power consumed a lot of her body, and she tried not to use it if she could.

The locust trees shattered into flying wood chips, and the protective film on Feng Yaya’s jade pendant shone brightly, blocking all the wood chips. The toad was half-real and half-illusory, and the wood chips couldn’t parasitize it.

Su He remained motionless, with waves rolling around his body, killing all the approaching wood chips, and streams of turtle yuan poured into his body.

The big locust tree carefully controlled the locust forest to rush towards the Dragon Turtle. It didn’t dare to send too many, fearing that the Dragon Turtle would have an accident, and it didn’t dare to send too few, fearing that it would not be enough to cause the Dragon Turtle to fail to advance.

It was like a worried old mother.

Both sides cooperated tacitly, and everything proceeded in an orderly manner.

In a moment, on the River of Light from the Great World to the Mysterious Wasteland, a speedboat sped past. In a cabin of the speedboat, Su Huanian slowly opened her eyes, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, “A curse?”

Just now. The protective jade pendant left on Yaya was activated, which was a jade pendant for defense against curses. Only a power similar to a curse would activate it.

The tiger claws were also used, they were in danger!

Su Huanian tightly held the Fairy Sword in her bare hand, her breath becoming chaotic.

She didn’t know where Dragon Turtle and Yaya had gone. They were not in the Mysterious Wasteland. They were not far from the Mysterious Wasteland, but Su Huanian couldn’t sense Feng Yaya’s location.

She carefully sensed the “blessing” aura around her. The aura did not weaken, Dragon Turtle was fine. Yaya should also be safe.

The jade pendant’s perception was delayed, perhaps the crisis had already passed.

Su Huanian lightly gathered her hair, tucked the white hair at her temples behind her ears, revealing her white neck. Her jade-like hand rested on the Fairy Sword, the sword intent within the sword was sharp.

A flash of green light, a blue bird clumsily appeared, “Guess what news I heard?”

Su Huanian glanced at it.

The blue bird chirped, “Just now, a cargo ship from Yunmeng Lake came from the Mysterious Wasteland. I asked about it. Do you know what the Qingyuan Sect is doing now? Do you know what realm Feng Yiju is in now?”

“Traverse Heaven third stage.” Su Huanian said softly.

Although she had only glimpsed it in her previous incarnation, she knew roughly. In the months since she left, Feng Yiju had already stepped into the third stage of Traverse Heaven.

Indeed, it was miraculous. The path of cultivation was step by step, and one could only move forward by being steady at every step. No one could step into the third stage of Traverse Heaven from Subdue Demons in a few months.

He had already reached the third stage of Traverse Heaven long ago, hiding it from Dongyun, Qingyuan, and her.

“Not just that!” The blue bird spoke very fast, like a rapid-fire cannon: “The captain said, the Qingyuan Sect has already monopolized Dongyun Mountain, condensing the soul of Dongyun Mountain. They even prayed to heaven and earth to raise the Three Lives Gate, opening the battlefield between the two realms of the same sealed Great World.At this moment, Xuantian Gate was in a difficult situation. Those with low realms who entered Dongyun would be thrown into the Three Life Gate, while those with high realms – the Emperor’s Great World seemed to have gone mad. It was clear that Qingyuan had opened two new battlefield realms, but the Emperor’s Great World insisted that it was the doing of Xuantian Gate. Now, Xuantian Gate’s own battlefield realms were under fierce attack, and the higher-ups simply couldn’t spare any hands to help.

Xuantian Gate was already too busy to care about anything else.

Su Huanian listened quietly without interrupting. Feng Yiju was best at using the strength of others against them, and she didn’t know how he had managed to get the Emperor’s Great World to hold back Xuantian Gate.

Her cold gaze flowed out from the window, looking towards the Mysterious Wasteland.

From this distance, the Mysterious Wasteland looked like a large island floating in the starry sky, with various colors of light flickering on the island. This was the light of destiny condensed by the ten immortal gates and the major clans.

The entire Mysterious Wasteland was covered in a dazzling array of colors. Unlike the Emperor’s Great World where the Emperor’s Palace dominated, the entire Great World only had a sky-high golden light.

By focusing her vision, she could find Dongyun Mountain in the southwest of the Mysterious Wasteland. There was no light flashing on Dongyun Mountain, but it was not the chaotic aura from before.

Feng Yiju had indeed unified Dongyun.

But this was not the reason for him to extract the life source of Yaya.

Yaya was different from ordinary people who had souls and bodies. Yaya was like a Divine Beast, with her spirit and body as one.

To extract the source was to annihilate the soul.

Even a tiger would not eat its cubs…

Time passed hour by hour, and the Turtle Essence was constantly nourishing Su He. The condition on the Mirror of Enlightenment had returned to normal.

Su He had not yet opened his eyes. On one hand, he was still adapting to his body. He had been ambushed by the Turtle Bead, and his progress was too fast, making it somewhat difficult to adapt to his body.

On the other hand, he was doing his best to condense the Turtle Essence and suppress it in his Mind’s Eye as a reserve.

This Turtle Essence was extremely pure and greatly helpful to his advancement. The more, the better.

Feng Yaya was rising and falling on the Turtle Shell. Every once in a while, she would be summoned and rise, then fall back down after breaking the summoning.

Several hours had passed, and she was having a great time.

Outside the sealed land, the mermaid girl on the altar had already shed her mermaid body. Dressed in a red skirt, her face was serious. She was summoning non-stop.

When her spiritual power was exhausted, she would take medicine and meditate. As soon as she recovered, she would start again.

The altar was peculiar. Within a month, only one person could ascend the altar, otherwise the sacrificial grandmother would not need to set up another altar.

Deep in the locust forest, the big locust tree was eagerly looking at Su He with its roots. It had been six or seven hours. A tenth of the Dragon Turtle True Essence that it had accumulated over the past six thousand years had been absorbed by this little Dragon Turtle.

But… why didn’t this little Dragon Turtle show any signs of advancement? There was no improvement in its bloodline after a whole day!

Was this guy’s talent so poor?

The big locust tree was anxious in its heart, pacing back and forth. If the Dragon Turtle’s talent was so poor, even if it was promoted, how much power could it draw from the Dragon Turtle’s corpse above? Or was it that this little Dragon Turtle’s body was too deficient and needed to be replenished first?

The big locust tree stomped its feet, and the locust trees in the forest rushed towards the Dragon Turtle.

Perhaps it was because they had been acting for a long time, or they had really resigned themselves to their fate. The locust trees twisted their branches in a manner that seemed to regard death as home, looking extremely tragic.

Outside the sealed land, a hunting team quietly lurked. When they encountered water, they crossed it, turning into mermaids when they entered the water, and turning back into strong human men when they came ashore.

Everyone had a bow and arrow on their back, and a white jade shield on their head. It was a piece of Turtle Shell fragment. The sharp intent on the Turtle Shell was even sharper than a drawn sword.

Another two hours passed, and Su He slowly opened his eyes. He had basically adapted to his physical condition. After the Dragon Horn sprouted, his mental power doubled, making everything twice as effective.

He licked his lips and roared. He tilted his head back and a water ball sprayed out, exploding in mid-air and turning into a heavy rain. The rain fell heavily, hitting the locust trees. The locust trees didn’t even have a chance to resist and turned into black smoke and dissipated.

One after another, the Dragon Turtle True Essence was absorbed into his body and suppressed under the Dragon Turtle Dao Shadow in his Mind’s Eye. The more True Essence gathered, the more it gradually condensed into a drop of emulsion.

But it was not milky white, but looked like mercury.

Although this True Essence had been refined by the locust tree, it still retained its most original form.

Deep in the locust forest, the old locust tree was pacing faster and faster.

Something was wrong, very wrong!

This Dragon Turtle had absorbed as much as 20% of the True Essence, but there was still no sign of advancement.

How was that possible?

Even an ordinary Turtle, after absorbing so much, should have undergone a qualitative change!

This talent was so terrible that it couldn’t be described as terrible. It was simply unbearable to look at.

“Stop! Stop!” It couldn’t send any more. If it continued to send, the locust forest would be affected!

Over the past six thousand years, it had been constantly reproducing locust trees to resist the seal. The seal, under the blessing of the mermaids, was also constantly strengthening.

Today, the locust forest was suddenly destroyed by 20%. As one thing waned and another waxed, it had already felt the oppressive force of the seal attacking again.

Even breathing became difficult.

The terrifying feeling of being suppressed in a big locust tree by a glance from the Dragon Turtle six thousand years ago, unable to move or shout, came again.

“I won’t send anymore! I will slowly break the seal!” It still had five thousand years of life. Maybe in the next thousand years, it would understand the nature of the seal and could directly break out.

It couldn’t waste any more, and it had to find a way to retrieve the Dragon Turtle True Essence!

The old locust tree stomped its feet, and the locust trees in the forest, which were full of desolation and ready to die heroically, scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing to the distance like mad.

Su He’s heavy rain fell through, and the rhythm of the hunt was interrupted.

Did the guy behind him change his tactics? Although he didn’t quite understand what the guy who had tied them in wanted to do, he wouldn’t refuse any benefits…

“Roar!”

Su He roared, “Where are you running?”The raindrops, heavy as a thousand pounds, suddenly transformed into a torrential downpour, sweeping out like a storm of pear blossoms. Dozens of large trees were instantly reduced to ashes.

Threads of true essence were leaping towards Su He.

At this moment, the dice clattered down.

Quantity x3

Quantity x2

Quality x3

It was as if he had entered a gambling house, with screens full of dice and the sound of rolling dice filling his ears.

These dice were extremely playful. Sometimes, when they grabbed various treasures at the same time, they would roll one after another. Sometimes, like now, they would roll a dice on each treasure at the same time, as if they were in a hurry to roll them all at once.

Su He looked at the rapidly increasing turtle essence and felt relieved.

This was right. The turtle essence just now was clearly sent by someone behind the scenes for some unknown purpose. Seeing his insatiable greed, they were planning to withdraw their investment and run away.

Think they can escape?

The more you resist, the more excited I get!

You scoundrel! Don’t you dare run!
