From a distance, the mermaid priestesses, carrying jade beads, slowly swam over. They had arrived earlier, but seeing the revered Su He quietly enjoying the night sky with Miss Feng Yaya, they did not disturb them.

Only now, seeing them engaged in lively conversation and no longer admiring the scenery, did they approach.

Upon reaching them, they respectfully handed Su He a scroll, “Honored one, our divine records about the Dragon Turtle’s Tribulation Crossing are all here… Additionally, our tribe has prepared some simple food and wine, we invite you to join us.”

If it weren’t for the Dragon Turtle’s previous abnormal condition, the mermaid tribe would have already done their utmost to entertain them.

It was rumored that when the gods were still present, the Dragon Turtle would often visit. At that time, the mermaid tribe was vast, with over a hundred thousand members. Every banquet would keep all hundred thousand busy, preparing food that was rare in the world.

Unfortunately, before the gods perished, they dispersed their clans, leaving only them to guard the Dragon Turtle’s great tomb.

Feng Yaya jumped up in excitement. Having a feast and a lively atmosphere was more important than anything else.

Su He thanked them, took the scroll, and opened it, only to be stunned. He couldn’t recognize the characters on it!

The characters of the Mysterious Wasteland were very similar to the small seal script from his previous life, but these characters were twisted like tadpoles, resembling both characters and runes. Su He couldn’t recognize any of them.

He looked at the mermaid priestess, who hesitated for a moment before realizing her mistake. She bowed and said, “Please forgive me, honored one. These are the characters created by our god, passed down in our tribe for tens of thousands of years. It was my oversight…”

Things that are taken for granted are the easiest to overlook.

She paused for a moment, then said with a bitter smile, “Our tribe only has the characters left by our god. I don’t know the characters of the outside world. Fortunately, the records here are not extensive. Would it be better if I directly explain them to you?”

“That would be appreciated.”

The mermaid priestess led Su He towards the banquet area, explaining as they walked, “The Divine Beast’s Tribulation Crossing is similar to a cultivator’s Demon Subduing Realm’s thunder tribulation, but not the same. Not all tribulations are thunder tribulations. Different Divine Beasts have encountered different tribulations, such as the great tribulations of water and fire, wind and thunder, and even thunder sound, illusions, and so on. Fortunately, your clan is best at defense, and with a strong external appearance, you need not fear any tribulation.”

She glanced at Su He’s external appearance, Turtle Mountain, her eyes full of admiration. How did he cultivate such an external appearance at such a young age?

“Honored one, as long as you continue to temper your external appearance and condense your bloodline, you will surely be able to cross the thunder tribulation. In the past, our god had extraordinary talent. What she sought was not to cross the thunder tribulation, but to enhance her foundation during the tribulation.”

She looked at Su He earnestly and said, “If you are to cross the thunder tribulation, it is best to find a place where the spaces of two major worlds intersect, such as the major wastelands. Although the thunder tribulation will become more terrifying due to the enhancement of the two major worlds, after crossing the tribulation, you will also receive the nourishment of the origins of the two major worlds. Your future is boundless!

If you can’t find such a place, you can go to the Mysterious Wasteland or the Emperor Sealing World to cross the tribulation. These two major worlds have the most abundant origins and are the best choices for Divine Beasts to cross the tribulation.”

The Emperor Sealing World and the Mysterious Wasteland are special in themselves. Not only are the cultivators powerful, but the world’s origins also far exceed other major worlds.

Su He nodded, taking note of this.

The mermaid priestess continued, “Honored one, remember, crossing the tribulation is extremely private. Do not let others enter the tribulation, otherwise the power of the tribulation will increase exponentially, adding unnecessary variables! Even the artifacts and formations refined by others cannot be used. This is different from a cultivator’s thunder tribulation. The tribulation tests whether you are qualified to become a Divine Beast. You cannot rely on external objects, even if you set up a formation or use an artifact, you must refine it yourself.”

Su He: “……”

His cultivation time was too short, and he had only touched the surface of formations and artifact refining, without any in-depth study. Moreover… if other Divine Beasts were all about eating and sleeping, where would they get the formations to set up?

“Before crossing the tribulation, didn’t the elders of your clan give any guidance?” Su He asked. Divine Beasts were too rare, and specific types of Divine Beasts were even rarer. Shouldn’t they take care of the younger generation who were about to cross the tribulation?

The mermaid priestess shook her head, “Before becoming a Dragon Turtle, no elder Dragon Turtle will appear. Our god did not explain the reason, but there is such a record.”

Su He was puzzled. What kind of logic was this? If it’s not my child, it has nothing to do with me whether it lives or dies?

Su He couldn’t understand. The group moved slowly, but the mermaid tribe was close by. They had already arrived at the banquet area after just a few sentences.

Although it was called a banquet, there was only Su He’s main seat, and the seats for the priestess and the tribal chief.

There were no tables or chairs, just a stone forest under the water.

Some mermaids brought lotus leaves, on which were various delicacies, mainly raw fish, and countless mountain treasures.

This was what the mermaids had prepared for Su He after he arrived on Cloud Island.

“We hope the honored one will forgive us. Due to the rush, we were unable to prepare the best food. We hope you will forgive our simple food and wine.”

This was already very good. This was the most exquisite food Su He had seen since he crossed over.

But this should be considered as entertaining guests rather than offering, right? This mermaid tribe was a follower of the White Jade Dragon Turtle, so it shouldn’t count as an offering and there shouldn’t be any dice falling!

He responded to the mermaid priestess and the tribal chief, while quietly putting a piece of raw fish into his external space.

No dice fell.

Good!

The least of what was served to Su He was the flesh of a three-star Exotic Beast, extremely fresh and delicious.

Feng Yaya was eating beautifully, mingling among several mermaid sisters, extremely envious of their mermaid tails and fins, using small shells to stick on her body to imitate the scales between the mermaids’ waist and abdomen.

The toad’s pipe was nowhere to be found. With a claw and a lotus leaf, he was pouring plates of delicacies into his mouth, occasionally storing some in his pocket.

While eating, Su He asked the mermaid priest, “May I ask the priest, how do we exit this large tomb space?”

The priest said that once he becomes the Dragon Turtle and returns after maturing, there should be an exit.

The priest put down his chopsticks, slightly bowed and said, “The respected deity has already obtained my Divine Turtle Shell. Once you put on the Turtle Shell, you will become the Divine Beast Dragon Turtle. If you use your eyes to carefully observe, you should be able to see the weak points in the space. You can break through them.”

Can the Dragon Turtle see the space?

Su He nodded slightly to a mermaid girl who brought food, expressing his gratitude, “Once we leave this place, will it be the outside world or the Dragon Turtle’s small world where we came from?”

The greedy toad instantly stopped its actions, maintaining the action of opening its mouth to receive food, listening quietly without moving.

The priest thought for a moment and said, “I heard from the toad friend about that small world. If I’m not mistaken, that should be the residence of my deity when he was still alive. That small world was once connected to this place, and the space is even weaker. Breaking the space should return to the small world.”

Once, a hundred thousand tribes lived there, but now, according to the toad, it has become the world of exotic beasts, without even a single mermaid. Where did the mermaid compatriots go?

The toad murmured, although it had expected this, it still couldn’t help feeling lost.

After swallowing two pieces of clam meat, it suddenly remembered what the priest had just said, and looked at Su He incredulously. This Turtle didn’t return the Turtle Shell? Can it still transform into the real body of the Dragon Turtle?!

Its breathing became rapid, does that mean it doesn’t have to wait for it to advance to the Dragon Turtle, and it can send the toad out?

After being locked up for so many years, the toad should be free…

Wait, This Turtle is not a good turtle, will it take the opportunity to make demands, asking the toad to recognize it as its master?

The toad was tangled again for a while.

The meal was suitable for both the host and the guest, only the toad was extremely tangled. It took a long time after the meal for the mermaids to reluctantly leave under the urging of the priest.

The Dragon Turtle’s attraction to the mermaids was illogical.

Feng Yaya, like a little madman, followed the mermaids to run around in the stone house, and it took more than half an hour to come back with a pocket full of mermaid pearls.

Su He had rested enough, his Divine Sense had not fully recovered, but it was no longer on the verge of withering. It had recovered from a small pond to the appearance of a small lake.

After saying goodbye to the priest and the chieftain, Su He took out the white Jade Turtle Shell, put it on his body, and his whole body turned into a jade color. A pair of turtle eyes opened wide and looked around.

Space is not like an empty room surrounded by six walls as imagined. Space is everywhere! Waving hands, moving up, down, left, and right are all space. The weak points in space will not suddenly appear as a soft egg membrane on the eggshell.

Instead, the space force at a certain point becomes weak. The restraint on the things in the space becomes weak.

Su He’s turtle eyes flashed with golden light, the dragon horns on his head lit up, and the space in front of him, in his eyes, was like a sea of water, with occasional bubbles floating in the sea.

This is the weak point in space.

“I found it!” Su He said in a deep voice. He found a big enough bubble.

Feng Yaya was sitting in the bird’s nest on Turtle Mountain, and the toad was nervously holding Su He’s turtle claw. Su He closed his eyes and bumped his head into the bubble.

Suddenly, the sky was spinning, and the space was reversed.

It was as if being sucked into a whirlpool, involuntarily spinning. The faster it spins, the dizzier it gets.

With a puff, it was as if it had been squeezed out of something.

The smell of mermaids in the air completely disappeared, a turtle, a toad, and a person fell from mid-air. They hurriedly opened their eyes, and were immediately stunned by the scene in front of them.

On the boundless sea, more than ten water tornadoes rushed straight into the sky.

The sea beneath them was raging and surging.

Above their heads, lightning flashed and thunder roared.

Before they had time to exclaim, the three of them had fallen into the sea one after another, and the whirlpools under the sea were spinning recklessly.

The toad was swept away to an unknown place, and Feng Yaya, holding the bird’s nest, started crying.

Su He broke out of the water and looked around.

This place was not far from Monkey Island, only a thousand miles away. Several tiger whales were whistling on the sea, each with a thunder monkey lying on it.

A wild boar was drifting with the waves in the sea, surrendering to the sea with its four hooves raised, but the sea turned a deaf ear, and the waves were still ruthlessly whipping it.

Some small tiger whales couldn’t resist the suction of the water tornado and were rolled up and down in the tornado, and some thunder monkeys were slapped off the tiger whales by the huge waves, sinking into the sea along the whirlpool.

The leader of the tiger whales was struggling to slap its tail, creating whirlpools to resist the sea, but the effect was minimal, and even had a counterproductive effect.

Even the six-star exotic beasts were so powerless in front of the world.

Su He complained, were these exotic beasts trying to conquer nature by running into the sea instead of staying on the island?

“Ang!”

With a long chant from Su He, he waved his turtle claw, and more than ten water tornadoes on the sea surface disconnected from the sky, spinning and falling back into the sea.

With a press of the turtle claw, a ripple spread out from the Dragon Turtle at the center, calming the whirlpools and giant waves wherever it passed.

In an instant, the wind and waves were calm. Only the fish, shrimp, and crabs that had been swept up into the sky were raining down like a downpour.

With the protection of the turtle shell, Su He was like a sea god.

Once the turtle shell was removed, Su He stood in the sea, looking around.

A green snake fell from the sky with a scream, splashing into the sea with a loud splash. It lay motionless as if dead, only to suddenly wake up after a while. It swam up, breaking the surface of the water with a scream, and turned its head to meet Su He’s gaze.

Gradually, its eyes were filled with resentment.

This Turtle was so heartless, leaving her, a snake, here while everyone else left.

She was just a little green snake that hadn’t transformed! Her strength was equivalent to a two-star Exotic Beast. Do you know the feeling of terror when you open your eyes and see four, five, six-star Exotic Beasts everywhere?

Green Snake hissed, and after holding it in for a long time, she finally spoke: “Where did you go? Monkey Island has been taken by others!”

Her voice was filled with resentment and endless grievances.

“Huh?” Feng Yaya raised her head.

Who dares to steal my island?

She surveyed the sea and saw a group of disheveled killer whales carrying a group of disheveled monkeys on their backs. These wounds were not the work of the sea, but the result of fights with other beasts!

A defeated army!

“Tusks!” Feng Yaya shouted, her fighting spirit high.

“Panting~roar~” A wild boar in the distance howled, its hind legs spinning like a top, swimming on its back towards Feng Yaya.

It couldn’t get up, having drunk too much seawater, and couldn’t turn over.

“So stupid!”

Feng Yaya scorned.
