The turtle body is an avatar, but the snake body is not!
Before entering the gate of Xuan Wu, Su He’s Spirit Snake and the turtle body must not be separated beyond the scope of the Domain.
Upon entering the gate of Xuan Wu and achieving the Opening Heaven Three-fold, the Spirit Snake not only can move away from the turtle body, but even upon just entering the Xuan Tian Immortal Domain, this small distance can still be maintained.
The Spirit Snake flung the Houdou backward with its mouth.
A Ghost Creature walked through the Netherworld Passage and with one slash of its hand, a Broken Sword stabbed directly into the chest and abdomen of Houdou.
Houdou screamed miserably as his body of molten lava couldn’t offer the slightest resistance to the Broken Sword.
Houdou stomped his foot and suddenly flashed to the side, but at that moment, a space rift tore open, and the Dragon Turtle tumbled out in a sorry state.
Su He cursed under his breath, with each scale and patch of flesh containing the Law of space in his Opening Heaven Three-fold advanced flesh body, he could now simply tear through space for teleportation, no longer needing to painstakingly construct a time channel.
But such reckless teleportation caused the entire channel to be twisted.
The collision with space left him in disarray, and as soon as he emerged, he saw the enslaved Houdou charging over.
Su He, without uttering a word, raised his claw and slapped down.
With a dull thud, Houdou was turned into a rolling gourd and struggled to jump up, only to have a Mountain Divine God Seal smashing down on his head.
Power ×4
Having just battled with the Tengu, the power rotated through a cycle.
Mountain Divine God Seal, Heavenly Punishment…
In a flash, a series of attacks fell, and without even a chance for Houdou to resist, he was left half-dead, collapsed on the ground, motionless, with only the molten lava of his body still flowing.
With a flash of Taiyuan, Houdou was thrown into its depths while the Spirit Snake coiled around Su He’s Shell, Su He glanced at the Toad beside him and smiled, “Let’s go back!”
He sensed the disturbance from the Void Forbidden Divine Pearl; indeed, the Half Tengu had not left!
Tengu is good stuff.
Trailing behind Su He was a Tengu, half-dead…
fully dead now.
He had struck too hard earlier.
Against the Tengu of Opening Heaven Five-fold, Su He went all out without holding back, having initially left it barely alive with the intent to interrogate it.
Crossing through the space channel, the Tengu was already dead.
These non-Four Spirits creatures were too frail and couldn’t withstand rough handling.
Even the dice had landed on the Tengu’s fabric pouch.
After all, Tengu, being Divine God Beasts like birds, had fabric pouches that served as natural storage spaces.
Su He swiftly tossed the Tengu’s corpse into his Inner World.
With a howl, the Toad leapt onto Su He’s Shell.
As a Soul Beast, it advanced with its master.
With Su He’s achievement of Opening Heaven Three-fold, there was all-around enhancement.
Naturally, the Toad would also level up.
Although its exact rank remained unclear, at the very least, it could now challenge the combat power of Houdou of Opening Heaven Five-fold in terms of strength and speed.
Parting the space with a split of its claw, it returned to the East Cloud Mountain battlefield.
Upon emerging, they saw two hunting dogs inside the Void Forbidden Divine Pearl howling and barking—though no sound came out, their appearance was extremely wretched.
They must have sensed the status of their junior.
The Half Tengu, however, was not howling or struggling, but merely standing there stupefied, seemingly lost in thought for quite a while.
When the Void Forbidden Divine Pearl suddenly became three pearls, it knew something had gone beyond expectations.
Indeed, within moments, its junior was dead.
It didn’t know which number this one made of the Tengu who died at the hands of the Dragon Turtle.
With each generation of the Tengu Clan, a great number of clansmen would die at the claws of the Dragon Turtle in various ways.
Now it was this generation’s turn, with the first of the new generation who reached Opening Heaven Five-fold, dead!
The Half Tengu took a deep breath, lifted its head to gaze at the hazy outside world; it couldn’t see the specific situation outside from within the seal.
But that Dragon Turtle must be about to return, right?
Or perhaps it had gone to hunt that Houdou?
Its canine kin couldn’t escape, and naturally, neither could Houdou!
This battle originally had great prospects of victory.
But the Dragon Turtle was too cunning; it trapped two seniors with a stratagem the moment it appeared, and their greatest combat power was instantly nullified.
There was also that serpent assistant, who crippled it with a single blow, and those stealthy channels that directly captured the formidable Huodou.
It had originally planned with two juniors to release two elders.
Yet, it had not expected there to be a third Void Forbidden Divine Pearl.
Should it be said that it’s worthy of being a Dragon Turtle?
To casually produce three Divine God Pearls!
Could there be more allies to come, and could it possibly produce a fourth Pearl?
The Half Tengu let out a wry smile.
How the Tengu Clan came to be the sworn enemy of the Dragon Turtle, it was unaware, only knowing since the first day of its attempt to attain godhood that this enemy was so formidable.
Before achieving Divine God Beast status, it was free and untroubled, but once it became a Divine God Beast, it started hiding and living like a rat in a gutter.
What was the point of proving oneself as a Divine God Beast?
As it pondered, it raised its head, seemingly mocking itself, yet a smile of resignation appeared on its face.
Even if becoming a Tengu was full of adversities, but—it was already a Tengu!
To witness its kin being killed before its eyes, that feeling was even more agonizing than the Spirit Snake tearing its body apart!
Dragon Turtle!!
The Half Tengu howled to the sky, its eyes showing a mix of sorrow and determination.
Then—
Boom!
Self-destruction!
A loud explosion, penetrating through the barrier, blasted forth, the immense energy breaking free from the Void Forbidden Divine Pearl that imprisoned itself, and rushed towards the Old Tengu’s Divine God Pearl.
An intention turned into a resonant voice, echoing through East Cloud Mountain, “Dragon Turtle!
Do you think my Tengu Clan fears death?!”
The voice surged like a torrential flood.
Divine God Beasts never lack the courage to face death!
“Turtle Kid!” The Toad called out, its body flashing towards the Void Forbidden Divine Pearl, but watched helplessly as the seals imprisoning the Old Tengu crumbled bit by bit.
The Toad’s face showed frustration, as if cursing, and without waiting for the seals to fully break, it grabbed the Divine God Pearl that imprisoned Old Huodou, and leaped into the gorge.
The imprisoning seals of the Old Tengu could not hold much longer, and once the Tengu broke free, it would likely free Huodou immediately!
It had to act one step ahead!
The measures that Huodou and the Tengu had set up above the gorge to prevent Su He from escaping back into it exploded violently.
The Toad extended its claws, its entire body entering a phantom state as it held the Divine God Pearl, dashing left and right.
Outside the gorge, Su He looked at the shattered seals and felt the pervasive aura of the Tengu’s self-destruction, with a faint light flashing in his eyes, pondering over something.
The Old Tengu stepped out from the seals, his previous hysteria gone, his gaze calm like an ancient well, tranquil and unfathomable.
As if oblivious to the death of his younger kin, especially the one that just self-destructed to release him.
The Old Tengu landed, looking at Su He, his voice slightly deep, “Tengu, Divine God Wind, I have seen you, fellow Daoist.”
Killing two adult Tengu and two adult Huodou in such a short time was an accomplishment it might not achieve itself; this Dragon Turtle was astonishing.
Had it known this would be the outcome, it should have summoned more clansmen!
“Dragon Turtle, Su He!” Su He replied solemnly.
The Old Tengu shook its head, “I haven’t heard of you, but as long as you survive today, your fame will undoubtedly spread through the universe and surpass that of any other Dragon Turtle!”
Su He flexed his claws, with the Spirit Snake coiled around, hissing, “I’ll do my best to survive.”
