"What? Kid, are you telling the truth!"
One of the heads spoke.
The two heads looked at Zhang Tian, as if trying to see through him.
The divine turtle wasn't particularly large, with a four-meter form, and it was in a spiritual body state.
The main reason Zhang Tian had exploded his soul core was that he wanted to test this fellow.
At the same time, he wanted to inquire about the situation on the upper levels, as well as his own current circumstances.
Zhang Tian had just entered and knew nothing. Now that this fellow was the only one he could converse with, Zhang Tian naturally didn't want to give up.
"It's true, but it was outside. I don't have it on me now."
Zhang Tian nodded.
The two heads shifted from joy to sorrow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"You fellow, why do you only speak half your words? If this were my past self, I would have eaten you long ago."
The green-haired turtle spoke, a hint of displeasure on its face.
However, the creature didn't attack Zhang Tian. Zhang Tian surmised it was likely due to some kind of restriction.
"Great Divine Turtle, although I don't have it on me, the person who entered the tower with me has a lot."
"Have you seen that person?"
Zhang Tian's face held a flicker of hope.
This question not only inquired about Zhang Qilin's whereabouts but also indirectly asked if the tornado that swept him in was this creature's doing.
After Zhang Tian finished speaking, the green-haired turtle's two heads showed confusion.
"There were others who entered the tower? I really don't know about that."
"When I was in slumber, you fell onto my back. I was woken up by you."
The green-haired turtle looked puzzled. If Zhang Tian hadn't suddenly entered, it might still have been sleeping.
"Great Divine Turtle, I remember I was swept in by a tornado. Do you know how to get out of here?"
Zhang Tian asked.
At the same time, he understood that his entry was random, and the tornado probably wasn't caused by this creature.
Instead, it was someone else.
The green-haired turtle thought for a moment and then spoke.
"I don't know about that. I've been here for thousands of years, and I don't remember many things."
"As for getting out, if it were possible, I would have left long ago."
The green-haired turtle said, shaking its head. The two turtle heads bobbed.
They looked incredibly sturdy.
Zhang Tian felt a bit dejected.
If the Queen Mother of the West had sealed an evil entity back then, why had this green-haired turtle become so plump?
And why didn't it even attack him?
Zhang Tian was very confused.
This was quite different from his perception of the Demon Tower.
In Zhang Tian's understanding, the Demon Tower should at least be filled with unpardonable villains.
It should be a place of piled white bones and endless demonic creatures.
But the reality was, he was faced with only a green-skinned turtle.
There seemed to be nothing else.
"Thank you for your explanation, Great Divine Turtle. However, I've heard that the Demon Tower is inhabited by powerful individuals. Why is it that, Great Divine Turtle, you cannot leave?"
Zhang Tian didn't ask directly but rather in a roundabout way.
The green-haired turtle clearly found Zhang Tian a bit bothersome. Its two turtle heads swayed, and it finally spoke.
"Hmph, what inhabited? We were captured. As for power, it's not like that. Before, we ate humans, demons, and everything under the sun."
"Only by doing so could we cultivate. It's like you humans eating animals; only by eating meat can you become stronger."
"But one day, a mysterious person told us that we should be brought to justice. Then, after numerous fierce battles, we were ultimately killed by her."
"As for leaving, there's no chance. The materials for this Demon Tower were made from my turtle shell, and even I cannot leave."
The green-haired turtle said, shaking its head, full of helplessness.
Zhang Tian had a general understanding of the reason.
They and humans were naturally enemies on the food chain. If they could only cultivate by eating humans, then avoiding pursuit was indeed impossible.
However, the fact that the turtle shell was the Demon Tower was something Zhang Tian hadn't expected.
"If the turtle shell is the Demon Tower, then logically, the green-haired turtle should be able to leave."
"But now it seems it can't even leave this level, which proves that the formations here are very strong, and the materials used to build the Demon Tower are likely more than just the green-haired turtle's shell."
Zhang Tian mused, gradually gaining some clarity.
However, this green-haired turtle didn't seem like a purely brainless attacking demonic beast, but rather leaned towards a more peaceful disposition.
This gave Zhang Tian a lot of breathing room and an opportunity to understand the situation.
"So that's how it is. Thank you, Great Divine Turtle."
Zhang Tian expressed his gratitude.
The green-haired turtle didn't speak further, clearly too lazy to continue conversing with Zhang Tian.
Although he didn't know the green-haired turtle's strength, it was likely significantly weakened after dying for thousands of years.
Furthermore, the creature hadn't fully evolved, only developing a second head, which indicated its strength wouldn't be too high.
Zhang Tian was no longer worried. He sat down on the ground, attempting to sense the airflow around him.
Simultaneously, he began searching for the secrets of the formations.
Seeing Zhang Tian sit down, the green-haired turtle opened its eyes for a moment before closing them again.
"This human is quite bold."
"Yes, it's been a long time since we've seen such a bold human. Haven't other deceased humans entered the Demon Tower before? It seems they all entered the upper levels."
"Yes, I know. The one above is even crazier than us. He's been searching for a way to break out for thousands of years, even absorbing the souls of countless people."
The two turtle heads conversed mentally.
"It's impossible to get out. The formation that madman created is very powerful. The entire Demon Tower has been refined into a magical artifact; not even reincarnation could break it."
"If I could, I would even want to reincarnate."
Both heads sighed.
To be stuck here for thousands of years, with no sunlight, unable to cultivate, only to watch their bodies deteriorate day by day.
Their cultivation was also declining.
This feeling would be hard to accept for anyone who enjoyed training.
Imagine you've finally built up your abs, or you're determined to focus on studying, but then one day, an epidemic hits...
At this moment, Zhang Tian sat on the ground, his consciousness transforming into chaos.
He began exploring the surroundings of the Demon Tower.
Zhang Tian took out a formation talisman.
This type of talisman could capture fluctuations in formations.
Of course, it could only be used once, and the formation fluctuations were very weak.
Zhang Tian had to capture the formation's fluctuations in an instant to find a breakthrough.
Once he found a breakthrough, Zhang Tian would have a chance to enter the next level.
As for breaking it, with Zhang Tian's current strength, it was likely impossible.
Soon, the green-haired turtle was also drawn to Zhang Tian's actions.
It watched as Zhang Tian continuously took out talismans, only for them to turn to ashes.
The next moment, Zhang Tian would take out another, which would also turn to ashes.
This process repeated itself.
"He's trying to find the formation's fluctuations!"
One head exclaimed.
"It seems so. Could this fellow be a formation master?"
The other head was also somewhat surprised.
After all, formation masters were very rare.
Especially in modern times, among the people who had been drawn into the Demon Tower, the green-haired turtle had never encountered a formation master.
Seeing Zhang Tian now was like seeing a glimmer of hope!
