Chapter 622: Chapter 617: Beiming Has a Turtle, Its Shape Like a Dragon

“Pfft…”

The body of the Spirit Turtle was as large as a millstone. Born of the Demon Clan, it not only had a hard shell and abundant vital energy but also strong physical strength. Its solid turtle legs heavily stamped on Wei Wusheng’s back, nearly embedding him into the hard rocks below.

Instantly, Wei Wusheng’s already suppressed injuries flared up again, causing him to spew a mouthful of fresh blood, nearly costing him his life!

In his heart, Wei Wusheng was enraged. As a cultivator from the Demon Dao, he had lived a life of freedom and unbridled slaughter. It had always been he who bullied others. When had he ever suffered such humiliation?

In his anger, he roared lowly, spewing a mist of blood with intense corrosivity towards the Spirit Turtle.

However, despite the Spirit Turtle’s inferior Dao cultivation, Wei Wusheng was not at his peak condition at that moment. As a result, the Spirit Turtle’s Eight Trigrams Spiritual Light directly nullified the blood mist, rendering it ineffective.

“Hahaha… I am an exotic species of heaven and earth, naturally endowed with the Eight Trigrams Divine Pattern on my body. How could your trivial evil secret technique harm me?”

The Spirit Turtle lifted its head and laughed heartily to the sky, triumphant and slightly self-aggrandizing in its speech. Gathering an immense force in its legs, it heavily stomped down again.

With a booming sound, the stomp caused the island to shake and the rocks to crumble, directly breaking Wei Wusheng’s spine with a series of cracking sounds.

Wei Wusheng struggled a few times with his limbs on the ground but failed to escape from under the turtle’s leg. Anger blazed in his eyes and with a flicker of spiritual light between his brows, he released his Primordial Spirit.

However, his release of the Primordial Spirit was not to fight the Spirit Turtle; it was to escape.

As a cultivator born in the Demon Dao, his greatest skill was preserving his own life.

Thus, he would rather abandon his physical body, as long as his Primordial Spirit could escape. After all, he could attempt a body seizure later or even cultivate the Ghost Path to become a Ghost Immortal!

But just as his Primordial Spirit appeared, Qin Feng flicked his fingers, emitting sparks.

The sparks splattered onto Wei Wusheng’s Primordial Spirit, exploding into a great burst of Soul Burning Demon Flame, tightly enveloping and even attempting to drain the power of Wei Wusheng’s Primordial Spirit to fuel the flames, making the fire burn even fiercer.

Wei Wusheng was horrified and rapidly gathered his Primordial Spirit, restraining his power as a massive surge of Demonic Qi erupted, attempting to extinguish the Demon Flame.

However, before he could fully extinguish the flames, the scene before him brightened, and he looked up to see Qin Feng holding a clump of pure white Holy Flame.

“Ah…”

This pain seemed even more severe than being scorched by the Soul Burning Demon Flame, giving him a sensation of being purified to emptiness, leaving no trace of his soul imprint.

“Damn it, what kind of flame is this? Could it be the Immovable Ming King Fire from Buddhism?”

Wei Wusheng was startled and his Primordial Spirit controlled the surrounding Demonic Qi to surge out madly, trying to fend off the purification of the Holy Flame.

But in his prime, he was no match for Qin Feng; now, having abandoned his physical body and left with only his Primordial Spirit, how could he withstand the myriad of techniques employed by Qin Feng?

In moments, various divine abilities from Qin Feng dispersed his Primordial Spirit, and finally, he completely refined it with the Soul Burning Demon Flame.

That was not all; to prevent any accidents and ensure that this demon did not leave a divine soul concealed within him, Qin Feng purified his physical body with the Holy Flame. Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief, then prepared to have a look around to determine his whereabouts and how far he was from the God Burying Abyss.

Before he could get a clear look at the surrounding scenery, suddenly, the ground beneath his feet trembled, and the entire island began to shake!

“An earthquake?”

Qin Feng looked down, puzzled.

At that moment, the Spirit Turtle suddenly cried out strangely, leaping up and standing upright on its hind legs, spinning in place twice before grabbing Qin Feng’s hand: “Master, let’s hurry!”

“Hmm? What happened?”

Qin Feng was slightly confused, yet he did not hesitate and chose to trust the Spirit Turtle, immediately jumping onto its back, preparing to escape swiftly, when he heard a loud splash; waves already several meters high in the sea suddenly surged tens of meters.

Then he felt the island beneath them rising higher and higher until it was tens of meters above the water surface, and the island’s area also expanded several times over.

“Huh?”

This astonishing occurrence piqued Qin Feng’s curiosity greatly. But before he could grasp the situation, a gigantic head suddenly appeared in front of them.

This head, about twenty-four to twenty-seven meters in dimension, had two huge dragon horns on its top and a mouth full of sharp fangs. Its exposed skin was covered in large scales, vaguely resembling a true dragon in the water.

Shocked, Qin Feng released his Divine Sense.

He then discovered that what they thought was an island was actually the back of a Dragon Turtle.

The island was merely the Dragon Turtle’s shell, that might have encountered volcanic eruptions in the past, leaving magma on its back that it never cleaned off. Over time, the magma turned to rock, with weeds and small trees growing in some places, and even sea birds nesting, which made it initially appear to be an island.

However, the Dragon Turtle, originally lying dormant in the sea, had suddenly awakened and stood up, resulting in the current scenario.

Thinking about it, it made sense. If someone were fighting fiercely near him while he was asleep, he would be awakened too, especially since they were actually on the back of the Dragon Turtle, using such powerful spells that it would be difficult not to awaken it.

The Dragon Turtle turned its neck without giving Qin Feng a single glance, its huge eyes fixating solely on the Spirit Turtle.

All the creatures in the world understand the art of cultivation, yet even among the favored Human Clan, not everyone can become an Immortal.

Indeed, although there are many Human Clan Cultivators, those who truly achieve Immortal Dao are one in ten thousand, maybe even one in a hundred thousand, considering the cumulative deaths of Cultivators across generations–making the precise ratio hard to define.

Even the Human Clan finds it so challenging, let alone the Demon Clan.

Besides a few geniuses with exceptional talents, most of the Human Clan possesses but mediocre capabilities.

The Dragon Turtle, though of extraordinary bloodline, is known for its long lifespan, which suggests that this race cultivates at an exceedingly slow pace. It is quite normal to see several Dragon Turtles exhaust their life span without advancing.

The Dragon Turtle in front of us is just such an example!

It lies dormant here, accumulating power while its spirit wanders beyond the physical, attempting to comprehend the vast, profound Water Element Principle of the North Sea.

Yet, before it could absorb much of the Law, it was disturbed by outsiders.

There had been other Demon Monsters that landed on its back and fought, but they were of low cultivation and did not catch its attention.

But this time was different, the commotion from the Fighting was enormous, and more importantly, it suddenly sensed an aura that stirred its heart, jolting it completely awake.

When the Dragon Turtle opened its eyes and saw the Spiritual Turtle hastily flying up from its back trying to escape, its eyes flickered with Spirit Light, driving away all traces of sleep.

Its eyes widened, fixating on the Spiritual Turtle.

At this moment, the Spiritual Turtle felt an endless dread. The Eight Trigrams Chart on its back pulsed with Spiritual Light, flashing warnings of imminent danger, urging it to escape the Dragon Turtle below.

“Roar…”

The Dragon Turtle suddenly roared fiercely, its sound thunderous and deafening!

Then, its thick limbs that resembled giant pillars thrust out of the water with a splash as it stood upright, scattering large volumes of seawater from its shell.

Standing up, the Dragon Turtle’s frame was enormous, its shell alone spanning over two hundred feet in diameter, its entire body resembling a small mountain.

At this moment, its presence was formidable, and its eyes radiated a fierce light. It suddenly stretched its neck and opened its mouth wide like a black hole, lunging at the Spiritual Turtle.

It intended to devour the Spiritual Turtle, refine its Essence Blood, absorb its Bloodline, merge its Divine Abilities, and use it as sustenance to advance towards Becoming an Immortal!

The methods used by the Beast Taming Sect’s Cultivators to aid a Spiritual Beast’s evolution originally came from the Demon Clan.

Likewise, Qin Feng’s ability in the Demon Refining Pot to merge bloodlines and gain the abilities of other Demons of the same species was also a skill comprehended by a Demon Clan Great Power.

Being from the Demon Clan, this Dragon Turtle naturally had the instinct to devour and integrate Essence Blood Power, especially now when facing the depletion of its Life Span and the challenge of proving its Longevity, it would not miss even the slightest opportunity!

It just so happened to encounter an exotic species, a Spiritual Turtle with an Eight Trigrams Divine Pattern on its back, possessing the talent for Divination. How could it let go of a chance to break free from the limitations of its bloodline?

Thus, the moment it saw the Spiritual Turtle, it almost instinctively lunged forward without a thought, its body reacting on its own to try and swallow the Spiritual Turtle.

Danger! Danger!!

The Spiritual Turtle’s Eight Trigram Spiritual Light at its back flickered madly, signaling the extreme menace of the Dragon Turtle!

As the Dragon Turtle’s enormous mouth rapidly enveloped it, the Spiritual Turtle felt a surge of panic and tried to escape.

But it was too close to the Dragon Turtle at that moment, having just flown up from its back, and in no time was within reach of the Dragon Turtle’s head.

More importantly, its strength was much less than that of the Dragon Turtle.

Not only was there a vast difference in their realms, but also in their accumulated strength.

The Dragon Turtle had been cultivating for more than nine thousand years, and its immense size alone was a testament to its formidable power, something the smaller, calculation-proficient Spiritual Turtle couldn’t compare to.

Moreover, the Dragon Turtle’s massive mouth acted like a vortex, containing incredible suction force. Once it locked onto its form, it continuously dragged the body of the turtle with that immense suction.

The Spiritual Turtle struggled desperately, wriggling its short limbs, but helplessly found itself getting closer to the Dragon Turtle’s gaping mouth.

When it could distinctly smell the sea stench from the Dragon Turtle’s mouth, an immense fear involuntarily rose in its heart.

Being a naturally occurring exotic species, it still had a great future ahead and didn’t want to be refined by its opponent.

So, it struggled fiercely, but could hardly escape the binding of the massively imposing and ferocious Dragon Turtle.

Just then, the space around it suddenly distorted, and it was moved a hundred feet away, narrowly escaping being devoured by the Dragon Turtle’s mouth!

As it breathed a sigh of relief with its soul still shaken, it realized that Qin Feng had intervened to save it.

Previously, both the Spiritual Turtle and the Dragon Turtle, which was solely focused on devouring it, had selectively ignored Qin Feng’s presence.

The Dragon Turtle was so desperate to achieve Immortality and extend its life that it saw devouring the Spiritual Turtle as a lifeline, a hope for Becoming an Immortal.

And the Spiritual Turtle, due to the extreme dangers brought by its Innate Divine Abilities, had no mind to think of Qin Feng until this moment. It then remembered it already had a master and didn’t have to face the enormous, ferocious Dragon Turtle alone.
