“Go!”
“Go!”
“Go!”
Quickly leave! The Mysterious Wasteland is the ancestral land of the Four Spirits. Relying on their youngling status to sneak in, other Divine Beasts would turn a blind eye. But barging into someone’s home is asking for trouble.
The others from the Xuantian Gate didn’t care, they could argue and negotiate, but there was an Orient Loong God here!
Two soaring snakes rose into the air, numerous treasures scattering from their bodies: “Forgive us, seniors, we have urgent matters and need to pass through!”
No voice came from the Xuantian Gate, but the warning within the Divine Senses that fell upon them gradually receded.
How could the high-ranking members of the Xuantian Gate, who had released their Divine Senses, not understand the Divine Beasts? Unless absolutely necessary, they didn’t want to confront the Divine Beasts directly.
Even if it was just soaring snakes.
The two soaring snakes fled in panic. After being told by the Moon Snake, both snakes were deeply troubled.
Bai Ling…
It was like a mountain pressing on their hearts. Not only them, but countless races and powers in the heavens and worlds would feel uneasy at the mention of Bai Ling.
In the late stage of Bai Ling, she didn’t even need to take action personally. Her subordinates could dominate the universe. The mermaid’s words: “Spread my divine decree…” had scared countless forces.
That wasn’t a good Dragon Turtle. What she wanted, she always found a way to get. If they cooperated, everyone would be happy. If they resisted – the three soaring snake uncles were an example.
The two snakes fled at high speed, heading straight out of the Mysterious Wasteland. The Seven Extremes Secret Realm, which was calculated by Bai Ling, was better off not going!
Soaring snakes were good at flying, stirring up wind and clouds with every move. Their wings spread out like lightning, breaking through the air one after the other.
They flew faster and faster.
The words “Moon” and “Old” kept flashing on their bodies. But the two soaring snakes seemed oblivious.
After an unknown amount of time, the soaring snake flying in front said: “Speed up, speed up more! That Dragon Turtle youngling will definitely take the core of the secret realm. We must snatch it before him!”
The soaring snake following behind it, with a flick of its tail and a flap of its wings, sped up even more: “Right, speed up more! That turtle brat was able to shatter my thoughts just after crossing the heavenly tribulation. He might be another Bai Ling. We can’t let this happen. We must hurry to the Mysterious Wasteland… Huh?”
In flight, he suddenly shook his head: “No! This aura… Is this the Mysterious Wasteland?” When did they arrive at the Mysterious Wasteland?
He was just daydreaming out of boredom for a moment. What happened? How did they already arrive at the Mysterious Wasteland?
The soaring snake in front looked back, giving him a disdainful look: “Did you become stupid after your thoughts were shattered by that Dragon Turtle?” They had rushed to the Mysterious Wasteland all the way from the River of Light, even smashing two Flying Boats when they exited the River of Light. How could he forget?
The soaring snake in the back shook its head and suddenly remembered.
But for some reason, a sense of unease rose in his heart. He caught up with his fellow tribe member in front: “Should we inform the elders of our tribe about such a big matter?”
That was the core of the Seven Extremes Secret Realm! It was a treasure of great importance!
The other soaring snake pondered for a moment: “Tell them! Let them wait outside the secret realm to support us, in case the Dragon Turtle clan doesn’t play by the rules and the elders intervene!”
For some reason, even though it hadn’t seen that new Dragon Turtle, it already felt an extreme dislike for him. There was even a faint sense of fear.
It shook its head, probably a post-traumatic stress disorder from Bai Ling!
The words “Moon” and “Old” on the foreheads of the two snakes became more and more obvious, as if they were about to bleed. But they seemed completely unaware, and their flight direction unconsciously turned towards the Seven Extremes Secret Realm again.
Inside the Seven Extremes Secret Realm.
With a loud explosion, Su He and the toad were covered in smoke, looking extremely miserable.
A turtle and a frog looked at each other, feeling a sense of shared misery. Fortunately, the water grass also wanted to ambush them and accidentally triggered the explosion of the little female turtle. Otherwise, if they were hit directly by the explosion, they would either die or be seriously injured!
Su He floated in the air, looking into the distance.
At this moment, they had already crossed a third of the lake – Su He couldn’t condense water waves, but he still had the ability to fly. After crossing the heavenly tribulation, flying became as instinctive as crawling or swimming, not a Divine Ability.
But condensing water waves to fly was faster, like a cultivator Sword Riding. But now, they had to rely on physical strength to move forward.
True turtle speed!
The experiences that the pair of brothers had summed up over three years were completely useless here. The only rule was: don’t approach any creature!
But what if other creatures actively approached them?
Su He looked at the small female turtles of different sizes surrounding him. These were a group of small female turtles as white as jade. Each turtle was riding a flying fish, flipping and flying around Su He, eager to approach him.
But these turtles couldn’t be touched!
They would explode!
Each turtle was constantly absorbing the stray energy around them, visibly growing larger. Once they grew to the size of a watermelon, they would explode with a slight touch.
After the explosion, they would return to the size they were when they first hatched, and then repeat the process.
What was most annoying was that these turtles were also carrying javelins, constantly shooting at Su He. Each javelin was like an explosive arrow.
The power of the explosion was not to be underestimated.
These turtles seemed like miniatures of Bai Ling, with exactly the same appearance, very cute. If they weren’t so violent, it would be nice to catch a few and raise them.”Descend?” The toad’s expression was solemn. These turtles had no sense of honor, attacking their own kind, and they couldn’t even win!
Not to mention that Su He couldn’t use his Divine Ability, even if he could, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the explosive power from earlier.
They had no choice but to descend. These fish-riding turtles were all in the sky, none of them had sunk into the water – this was not good news, the water might be even more dangerous than the sky!
How did Su Huanian manage to traverse this difficult path?
Su Huanian’s realm was higher, but here, where magic and Divine Abilities were banned, her defense was definitely not as good as Su He’s.
Meanwhile, deep in the secret realm, Su Huanian was standing in the midst of thunder, with countless thunders shooting around her.
This was the place where she had crossed the Tribulation years ago. Two white turtles, riding on flying fish, were standing under Su Huanian’s feet, carrying her deeper into the thunder.
On each of her shoulders stood a white turtle holding a spear, roaring at the thunder, probably threatening the thunder not to harm Su Huanian.
The treatment between people was vastly different.
Boom!
A violent explosion, Su He was completely overturned, smashing a patch of water weeds, and the screams of the water weeds were heard one after another.
“Damn it!” The toad cursed, hopping mad.
It wasn’t that the white turtles stopped exploding after they lowered their altitude, but that the water was full of lotus flowers, and those lotus flowers were in stealth mode, with more white turtles hidden inside!
Su He got up, shaking his head that had been blasted into a mess. Fortunately, the toad was a soul beast of the Void Frog clan, extremely sensitive to these illusory things. It sensed something was wrong and immediately told him to retreat, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
His outer appearance had two cracks blown open, and it was difficult to repair here where the Negative Mountain couldn’t absorb energy.
This power was truly terrifying.
Su He was still in shock, he turned his dragon head to look at the turtle shell. The toad was lying on the turtle shell, something was wriggling underneath it. From the crack in the outer appearance, a turtle shell as white as jade wriggled out.
The white jade turtle shell of the White Spirit!
Clatter!
The turtle shell fell on the water surface but didn’t sink. A gust of wind blew, and invisible energy from all around surged towards the turtle shell.
This turtle shell had exhausted its energy during the Tribulation Crossing and was completely unusable. But now it was struggling to crawl out.
The Seven Extremes Secret Realm could actually restore its power!
The turtle shell fell on the water surface, and the water grass instantly dispersed as if it had encountered its nemesis. Even a group of little turtles were craning their necks to look this way, and some even poked their heads out from behind the stealth lotus. Their bodies were still hidden behind the lotus, and it looked like a bunch of eerie little dragon heads floating in mid-air.
Su He licked his lips.
This was the first time the turtle shell had detached from him since it had latched onto him. Just as he was feeling surprised, the turtle shell seemed to sense a call, and it flew over with a whoosh, snapping into place on the turtle shell.
The turtle shell was filled with energy, feeling like it was good to go again.
A black jade Dragon Turtle turned into a white jade Dragon Turtle in an instant. With a dragon head and a turtle body, it exuded a sense of elegance amidst its domineering presence.
Now it looked three parts similar to the White Spirit.
A group of little white turtles looked at Su He but didn’t rush up to explode again.
Su He tried to make some bigger movements, but That Turtle didn’t rush up either, even the projected spears had stopped.
Changing its skin made it their own turtle, what a damn superficial world!
The toad was silent for a moment, its body became illusory, and it leaped onto a lotus leaf. As soon as it landed, it assumed a fleeing posture, but the lotus leaf didn’t attack it, and the white turtle on the leaf didn’t explode either.
It tentatively stretched out its claw to touch the dragon head of the white turtle, and it didn’t explode.
Soul beasts and their masters were one, these guys treated it as their own frog.
“Can they distinguish between friend and foe, do they have Spiritual Intelligence?” The toad asked.
Su He shook his head, these white turtles didn’t have Spiritual Intelligence, they weren’t real creatures, they were more like flesh puppets. They were probably following a preset program, reacting mechanically.
“Since they’re not exploding anymore, let’s hurry up and go. It’s been more than half a day, those two soaring snakes will be back soon!” The toad reminded.
Su He didn’t move, he looked around at the dense little white turtles and asked, “How powerful are their explosions?”
The toad shook its head, who knew. Anyway, if you held one in your arms and let it explode, not to mention the turtle shell, the outer appearance would definitely shatter completely.
“At least as powerful as a full-strength strike from a Traverse Heaven First Layer. Maybe even as powerful as a Traverse Heaven Second Layer.” Of course, it was referring to ordinary cultivators, not corresponding Divine Beasts.
“Set a trap!” Su He whispered. The two soaring snakes made him feel like a thorn in his back.
The soaring snakes in this world were not high-grade, they could only reach the Fifth Layer of Traverse Heaven. And each layer was not as powerful as the Dragon Turtle.
Adults had about the cultivation of the Seventh Layer of Traverse Heaven, but their combat power was several grades higher. These two soaring snakes didn’t know how many layers of Traverse Heaven they had opened, but in front of Su He, they were definitely formidable, irresistible.
Even if they teamed up with Su Huanian, there was no chance.
Previously, they had taken advantage of the fact that this place banned magic and Divine Abilities, allowing the toad to become illusory and quietly teleport away. But if they tried it again, they would definitely be on guard.
The same trick only works once in front of a master.The best outcome for Su He would be to obtain the core of the secret realm and escape successfully.
The Teng Snake was after the core, presumably a treasure related to Dragon Turtle’s creation of the world.
Su He didn’t know what Bai Ling was up to. Why didn’t he just let the elders take the core? Why was he bothering a little turtle like him?
What a peculiar taste!
The toad was also watching the sky full of white turtles, and after a moment of contemplation, his eyes lit up. He reached out his claw and tried to tear off a lotus leaf.
A hissing sound echoed in the void, the pain of the lotus leaf being torn, but it did not resist or attack.
“Sorry!” The toad patted the lotus leaf and apologized, then tore off more pieces of lotus leaf.
The lotus leaf quickly retreated, aggrieved.
The toad quickly broke off a piece of water grass and used its leaves to draw runes on the lotus leaf. The lotus leaf became invisible, and it looked as if there were runes floating in the air.
These runes did not have any magical fluctuations, they were just for show, but they looked extremely mysterious.
They were all various types of teleportation runes.
The toad was indeed a learned frog.
……
In the extreme south of the Mysterious Wasteland – the Mysterious Wasteland seemed to be a large island floating, but in fact, it had no boundaries. The so-called boundaries were the world’s embryonic membrane.
Here, chaos was rolling.
Gu Luo immersed himself in the chaos, and large talismans flew out from his inner world. They continuously bombarded the chaos, transforming it into real mountains and rivers.
The distinction between the big world and the small world was not in size, but in chaos. The small world did not have chaos entwined.
The three thousand big worlds were like upside-down discs, with a ring of chaos rolling at the edge of the disc. The big world continuously collided with the chaos, creating new mountain and river territories.
But this process was extremely slow, and even the fragile places would be eroded by the chaos, and some mountains and rivers would return to the chaos.
Divine Beasts could not only help the big world suppress the chaos, but they could also split the chaos to form new mountains and rivers. This was why the world was so dependent on Divine Beasts.
Compared to the two oldest worlds, the Emperor Sealing World and the Mysterious Wasteland, other big worlds were much more fragile and needed more Divine Beasts to suppress them.
Just like the once prosperous world where the Teng Snake clan resided, the Teng Snake was marked by the blood curse of the Dragon Turtle, and the whole clan hid in the gutter and dared not come out. Without the suppression of the Divine Beast, the prosperous world was eroded by the chaos.
The Dragon Turtle clan, Zhu and Huai, were currently in the prosperous world, taking over this matter.
Once Su He created the world and gained the ability to break through the chaos, he would also need to choose a place to suppress. This was the most convenient way for Divine Beasts to practice and gain merit.
Gu Luo hadn’t been here for a long time, and only when he came this time did he discover that the place where he had left his runes had completely lost its chaos and had become a mountain range. This time, he was not here to strengthen the runes, but to re-condense the runes in the chaos.
It was becoming more troublesome.
At this moment, Gu Luo suddenly raised his head, broke through the chaos, and returned to the Mysterious Wasteland.
A small azure dragon made of light suddenly appeared, crashing into his turtle shell. The little azure dragon brought news of the Teng Snake.
Gu Luo’s dragon whiskers fluttered, and his expression was not good.
Those creatures in the gutter were simply courting death! He didn’t want to be known as a bully, but it didn’t mean he couldn’t be one.
Immortal and undying, who cared about that?
His little turtle had just crossed the tribulation, and they dared to target him? Did they really think the Dragon Turtle was a vegetarian?!
Eels had always been on the Dragon Turtle’s menu!
The message from the Azure Dragon indicated that the two eels had already smelled the little turtle, and they must have seen the little turtle’s face. But he didn’t know what method the little turtle had used to throw them to the Xuantian Gate.
They must be chasing after him now.
Inside the Mountain Sea Mysterious Realm, a chick fluttered its wings and landed on Su He’s island. Under the stone pillar, Su He’s consciousness clone was lying there motionlessly.
He had been cooked!
Something was blocking the little turtle’s connection with the Mysterious Realm. But looking at this consciousness clone, although it was dull, it was still robust, so the main body should not be in danger.
The chick chirped a few times towards the clouds, which was Lei’s territory. Carrying a trace of Su He’s consciousness, it jumped out of the Mysterious Realm and landed on Gu Luo.
Leaving a consciousness clone of Su He in advance was not just for the convenience of communication. Through this strand of Divine Sense, Su He’s main body could be directly located.
No matter what kind of obstruction or seal!
Gu Luo broke through the space with a headbutt and appeared in front of the Seven Extinction Secret Realm. He poked his head out and looked at the secret realm.
It was just an ordinary secret realm, of which there were countless in the Mysterious Wasteland.
There was nothing special about it, but it could block the connection between the little turtle and the Mysterious Realm.
Gu Luo closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his dragon eyes became deep, with golden light flickering, Divine Ability: Illusion Destruction!
Capable of breaking all illusions and secrets…
Looking at the entrance of the secret realm again, it was completely different. There were laws hidden on it, each of which was inconspicuous and integrated with the secret realm, making it extremely difficult to detect.
If it weren’t for the deep traces of the Dragon Turtle, even Illusion Destruction would have a hard time noticing it.
Expulsion, oblivion, dispersion, neglect…
The entrance was full of similar laws, no wonder it was so openly open, not afraid of anyone breaking in.
There was a discernment mechanism above, and only those permitted by the secret realm could truly enter.
Gu Luo didn’t need to check, he had already smelled the familiar scent of his own offspring, along with the stench of two mud eels.
Those two mud eels had entered once, but there was no scent of them leaving, then they entered again. They were directly teleported away inside.
He didn’t know if it was the masterpiece of the secret realm or the doing of Little Turtle.
His Little Turtle didn’t have this ability yet, right? Gu Luo stood at the entrance of the secret realm, carefully examining it. The more he looked, the more amazed he became. As he understood the laws, the veins of the secret realm gradually revealed themselves in his eyes, connecting all the nodes together—it was an Elixir Furnace!
This secret realm was actually shaped like an Elixir Furnace!
And it looked extremely familiar, it was clearly the rusty furnace of Little White Spirit! Little White Spirit was extremely powerful, her divination was unparalleled, and she was invincible in battle.
But her elixir refining technique was unbearable to watch! In theory, with her unbeatable divination, she could completely calculate when to add ingredients, when to stoke the fire, and could refine a batch of top-grade elixirs without relying on her refining skills.
But ever since she became an ordinary turtle, she had completely cut off her connection with elixir refining. After crossing the heavenly tribulation and becoming a Dragon Turtle, she was even more unparalleled on the path of failure.
Even the Ancestor couldn’t bring her back.
The rusty furnace that she carried on her turtle shell every day disappeared after her demise. At first, it was thought to be with her remains, but from Su He’s memory, it was known that there was nothing with her remains. Neither the divination sticks nor the Elixir Furnace were there!
Was this secret realm transformed from the rusty furnace?
But Gu Luo couldn’t see the transformation method at all.
Just as he was hesitating whether to break open the secret realm and sneak in, he felt a spatial fluctuation beside him. Turning his head, he saw a huge dead tree breaking through the void and crashing out.
The unique stench of the Teng snakes on the tree rushed to his nose.
Seven auras, seven adult Teng snakes.
They were coming for him.
Did the Teng snake clan want to court death?
A group of mud eels, who couldn’t even break through the void at a long distance by themselves, dared to hunt him?
Seeking death!
Gu Luo’s domain instantly unfolded. The world instantly turned into a desert, with yellow sand everywhere and dust flying. However, the stars above were clearly visible.
“Come, fight!”
Gu Luo’s voice thundered.
Just seven mud eels, he could knock them all down with one claw!
The chick chirped twice. The moment the Teng snakes appeared, the space froze and the connection with the Mysterious Wasteland began to break.
They wanted to cut off the path for his Big Turtle to call for help.
But these mud eels probably didn’t know what a chicken was! He raised his head and crowed: “Cluck cluck!”
His body suddenly swelled, transforming into a colorful brocade chicken. With a peck in the air, he immediately broke open the space and leaped into the Mysterious Wasteland.
“Cluck cluck!” The brocade chicken crowed high in the clouds.
Thunder, it’s time to fight!
On the dead tree, the seven Teng snakes instantly coiled up their bodies. They had a bad start and failed to restrain Luo’s soul beast.
“Quick battle, quick decision! They came here, directly bringing the treasure of their clan, just so that the two little ones could get the core of the secret realm left by White Spirit.
What White Spirit left for the Dragon Turtle clan might be related to her against-the-heaven divination ability.
The more top-tier forces, the more they understand the importance of divination.
Sometimes, if the information is not symmetrical, no matter how high the combat power is, it’s useless!
Gu Luo roared, full of contempt in his eyes, but he was fully alert in his heart.
A lion uses all its strength to catch a rabbit, wouldn’t he understand this principle after living for hundreds of thousands of years?
As long as the Teng snakes cultivate well, they are equivalent to a seventh-level Traverse Heaven cultivator when they reach adulthood. But in terms of combat power, they are countless times stronger than ordinary seventh-level Traverse Heaven cultivators. Especially since they even brought the Death Tree of the Teng snake clan.
The population of the Teng snake clan is much more prosperous than that of the Dragon Turtles. Three hundred thousand years ago, the entire clan had at least sixty or seventy snakes. Except for those who were hunted down over the years, there should still be more than twenty left now.
Sending out seven at once, they really put in a lot of capital this time.
The space suddenly cracked open, and the Teng snakes and Dragon Turtles disappeared at the same time. The battle couldn’t be carried out directly in the Mysterious Wasteland, their destructive power was too strong. If they shattered the world of mountains and rivers, it would damage their own luck.
Another Dragon Turtle broke through the void and came.
The body of the Thunder was completely cracked, and there was thunder plasma surging in each crack. It was a special variant of the thunder attribute.
It didn’t rush into the battle space, but spat out the Mountain God to suppress the Seven Extremes Secret Realm, so that the secret realm wouldn’t be damaged by the aftermath of the battle. Only then did it crash into the battle space.
Inside, the two domains were confronting each other. One side was filled with yellow sand, with stars falling like heavy rain. The other side was dark, with a hint of blood in the gloom, and thousands of illusions inside. Skeletons, dead mountains, desolation…
The domains of the seven Teng snakes merged together to confront Gu Luo. The Death Tree stood lifelessly in the center of the domain.
For a time, it was hard to tell who was superior.
Thunder broke through the clouds, and in the world of yellow sand, there was a flash of lightning in an instant. Each star was flashing with electric light.
Thunder fell like rain.
…
…In the Seven Extremes Secret Realm, two soaring snakes took flight, spanning across the lake. This place forbade the use of Divine Abilities, the mist around them dissipated, they were flying with their physical bodies alone, yet their speed was still as fast as chasing stars and moon.
The snakes moved in a serpentine manner, extremely agile. The rain of white turtle spears in the sky couldn’t hit them. The two snakes flew rapidly, suddenly a group of white turtles dispersed. Another group rushed up.
The eyes of the two soaring snakes changed instantly. In this new group, each white turtle had a Talisman floating underneath it. Although they couldn’t sense the magical fluctuations on the Talisman – anything that could float in the air was definitely not ordinary!
In this damned secret realm, anything strange could happen. Just because they couldn’t sense it didn’t mean it didn’t exist!
The two soaring snakes only glanced at the Talisman and felt an inexplicable sense of suffocation.
It was a teleportation Talisman!
For some reason, the word “teleportation” made them extremely agitated when it came to mind.
With so many teleportation Talismans, once the white turtles exploded, who knew where they would be teleported to if the Talismans were blasted towards them.
They didn’t like teleportation at all!
“Dodge!” The two soaring snakes screamed at the same time, avoiding the teleporting white turtles and diving towards the water surface.
One of them plunged in.
Then—
Boom!
It was like entering a minefield, one explosion after another, the stealth lotus was blown to pieces, and the entire water surface was covered with white turtles.
Boom!
Boom!
The explosions were continuous.
……
On the shore of the lake, in a canyon, a miniaturized Dragon Turtle and a frog with a tadpole tail suddenly looked back.
The soaring snakes had arrived, a bit slower than they had expected.
The two looked back, then continued deeper into the canyon.
This canyon forbade flying, and with every step forward, there was a feeling of “I’m getting younger again.”
It was truly amazing!
The only bad news was that there was no scent of Su Huanian in the canyon.
Su Huanian did not take this path.
But once they reached the shore, the only path in front of them was this one!
