Chapter 89: Chapter 63: Divine Skills_l

Suddenly launching an attack, the Martial Artist Xu Yang struck with three lethal moves in an instant.

What were those three moves?

A roaring shout, surging water, and a giant bite!

Within the roaring shout, Divine Intent was contained, an attack on the spiritual level.Alll test novl on novelbn/(.)cm

The water surged violently, exerting heavy pressure, revealing the Mystical Tortoises innate control over water.

The giant bite, fierce as a dragon, with iron teeth and steel jaws, manifested the formidable strength of the Mystical Tortoises physical body. In an instant, the surprise attack gave no quarter to the opponent.

It showed fierce ferocity, and cunning experience!

However

The giant bite clamped down, with its iron teeth and steel jaws, on the Green Jade Scales. Sparks flew off like fireworks , many shattered, and new marks appeared on the fish scales.

But they were just marks.

The Green Jade Scales did not break!

This greatly surprised the Giant Turtle.

In the deep water zone, among the five tyrant-level demon monsters, excluding the filling roles of the Lobster King and Catfish King, the others all had their unique abilities: the Black Snake King with its lethal poison that would kill immediately upon contact, and the Eel Dragon, controller of electricity, unstoppable by anyone.

This Mystical Tortoise, apart from its innate capacity to control water, also possessed an unmatched physical strength. Anything caught between its iron teeth and steel jaws would not survive, not even the armoured Lobster King could withstand its bite.

But now

The heart of the Giant Turtle was shocked, with the instinct to retreat.

But it was too late!

Having bitten with full force, how could it just withdraw?

Before it could even move, a flash of golden light burst forth, and electricity flowed

Crackle crackle crackle!!!

The Green Fish remained still, brilliant light scattering around as the Green Jade Scales became transparent, revealing the glowing current within.

Sparks flew and the electricity exploded, rushing into the mouth of the Giant Turtle, ravaging its tongue and flesh as though it had swallowed a ball of lightning, bursting within its lips and mouth.

Gurgle gurgle!! !

The body of the Giant Turtle trembled, shaking like a mountain, uncontrollably convulsing, as its mouth and tongue were directly bombarded by the terrifying current, searing and cauterizing its flesh, leaving behind only charred marks.

The might of thunder and lightning was truly terrifying!

This was still due to its strong Mystical Tortoise body.

Any other demon beast hit by such an electric shock would have turned to a charred lump by now.

Only it, a Mystical Tortoise that exceeded the category of demon monster and was comparable to a Four-Realm Condensing Spirit Martial Artist, could withstand such a blow.

Although it did not die, it was severely injured. The Giant Turtle cried out in pain, spitting out the Green Fish and retreating backwards.

But why would Xu Yang let it go? With a sway of his tail, he turned his head and opened his mouth, shooting forth a dark arrow of poison.

Gurgle gurgle!

However, the Giant Turtle was prepared. It spurred its Divine Intent, and the water moved on its own, instantly forming a water barrier in front of itself.

The dark poison arrow, despite being called an arrow, was in reality just Xu Yang controlling the muscles in his throat to compress the poison into a shape before forcefully shooting it out. It was neither a spell nor a Divine Power, having only the effect of severe poisoning without the ability to penetrate.

Thus, upon hitting the water barrier, the dark poison arrow immediately shattered, dispersing the poison in all directions.

At that moment, the currents once again shifted. Containing the poison, the streams compressed and formed into a water arrow, shooting straight towards Xu Yang.

This was the true water arrow technique!

With the water arrow piercing towards him, Xu Yang wanted to dodge.

But to his surprise, the Giant Turtle invoked its Divine Intent, and the surrounding currents quickly whirled, creating a heavy pressure that weighed down on Xu Yang like a mountain.

This Giant Turtle, a naturally unique species known as the Blackwater Mystical Tortoise, was inherently bestowed with two Great Divine Powers: control over water and earth.

What was the power of earth control?

Among the four elemental forcesearth, wind, fire, and water

The Mystical Tortoise possessed the ability to manipulate the Earth Yuan, influencing gravity.

Combined with its other water-controlling Divine Power, in aquatic environments, it could create heavy water to oppress, making a single droplet heavy as a mountain!

This was the compounded dual-element Divine PowerEarth Yuan Heavy Water!

Under the effect of such a Divine Power, even other demon beasts would be suppressed and slaughtered at will.

Unless there was a Divine Power of the same level to counter it.

Only Divine Power can stand against Divine Power!

Did Xu Yang possess it?

Unclear, but the Giant Turtle did not believe that a small Green Fish like him could awaken an Innate Divine Ability of the same level as its own Earth Yuan

Heavy Water.

Therefore, this move was one it was determined to land!

With the gravitational pull of the Earth Yuan and heavy water bearing down like mountains, faced with such an arrow shooting towards him, there was no escane.

Just then

Roar!!!

The Green Fish roared, its body swaying, and a dragon-like tremendous force emerged, allowing it to escape from the compressing Earth Yuan Heavy Water.

Divine Power?

Indeed, none. Though Xu Yang had awakened many Innate Divine Abilities, not one could contend with Earth Yuan Heavy Water.

But lack of Innate Divine Abilities did not mean lack of Skill Traits.

Muddy Water Jiao Dragon!

Muddy Water!

Jiao Dragon!

The former was the capability to control water; the latter, the strength of a Jiao Dragon.

Combined, they were enough to help him break free from Earth Yuan Heavy Water.

The Green Fish soared like a dragon, leaping out and completely escaping the range of the Earth Yuan Heavy Water.

Having extricated himself, Xu Yang neither fled nor attacked but simply watched the Giant Turtle coldly.

Seeing this, the Giant Turtle did not pursue; it just laid down on the spot, spitting out a mouthful of black water mixed with a large amount of charred flesh and blood fragments.

I hadnt expected you to have obtained the electric control ability of that little loach; it was my oversight!

The Giant Turtle looked at Xu Yang, its eyes filled with regret.

Xu Yang did not speak, his demeanor cold and calm.

Surprise attack?

Something he had anticipated!

Many ordinary people and Cultivators have a stereotype about Spirit Monsters transformed from turtles and soft-shelled turtles.

They all think that these Spirit Monsters, with their huge bodies and slow movements, are benevolent and kind elders, fond of instructing the young and even bestowing opportunities upon them.

This is a completely erroneous perception.

In the world of Alien Beasts, there is no such thing as a Mr. Nice Guy, nor could there be.

Survival of the fittest, natural selection; every Alien Beast is the result of the law of the jungle.

Turtles and soft-shelled turtles are no exception, and theyre even more ferocious.

Given this Giant Turtles age and size, behind it must be a growth story of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

You think of them as benefactors or old sages of opportunity?

They see you as fat sheep knocking at their door, pigs walking themselves to slaughter!

The world of Alien Beasts is bloody and cruel, devoid of the beautiful romantic fantasies of people.

Therefore, Xu Yang was not the least surprised by the Giant Turtles ambush and had already prepared a countermeasure.

The key issue now was whether the Blackwater Divine Mansion was real or fake.

Of course, its real.

As if seeing through Xu Yangs thoughts, the Giant Turtle transmitted another thought: You have proven your strength and earned the right to cooperate with me. The previous conditions still stand. We can explore the Divine Mansion together, search for the divine seal, and whoever finds it keeps it.

What do you think?

True to its status as an old Turtle, its thick skin made even city walls appear inadequate.

Xu Yang did not respond. He glanced at it and then with a flick of his tail, turned and left.

Cooperate?

Cooperate my turtle eggs!

Cooperating with such an old fiendhow was it any different from plotting with a tiger for its skin?

Xu Yang would never entrust his back to such a creature, nor did he want this old sly boots lurking around while exploring the unknown.

So, regardless of whether the Blackwater Divine Mansion was real or fake, he had to kill this old creature first.

Only by removing this obstacle could he explore the Black Water Forbidden Area without any worries.

But how to deal with it?

This Giant Turtle was much more of a handful than the previous Black Snake King and Electric Eel King.

The Black Snake King and Electric Eel King had their dominance through deadly poison and electric shock, which were their strengths and also their fatal weaknesses. Once the countermeasure was found, they could easily be defeated.

But this Giant Turtle it relied on pure brute force!

First was its Cultivation: the Cultivation of this Giant Turtle had surpassed the realm of Demon Monsters and reached the realm Xu Yang suspected to be that of Demon Beasts, equivalent to a Martial Artist of the Four-Realm Condensing Spirit, and a Grandmaster of fulfilled Divine Intent.

Then there was its talent: the Giant Turtle was an exotic species with innate abilities to control water and earth. Its Innate Divine Ability, the Earth Yuan Heavy Water, was terrifyingly powerful. Had it not been for Xu Yangs Muddy Water Jiao Dragon power, todays odds would have been grim.

Lastly was its physical body: this Giant Turtle not only possessed impressive Divine Skills but also had tremendous bodily strength. It withstood a bombardment of electricity that ravaged its head and mouth, only to be wounded and not killed, illustrating its frightful vitality and defensive power.

It was this time, by luring it to bite his body and taking the opportunity to blast electricity into its relatively vulnerable mouth, in order to shock its entire head, that he managed to inflict significant damage.

If he had directly released electricity from outside, it might have caused only minor abrasions to its tough head.

And thats considering its flesh: if it were its shell, the defense would at least be tenfold stronger. Even lying there letting him electrocute it might not be successful.

With such a tough creature, how and where should he target?

Xu Yang fell into deep thought.

On the other side

This Green Fish is extraordinary!

The Giant Turtle lay on the ground, its expression grave and uneasy.

The reason it launched a decisive and ruthless sneak attack was partly because it regarded the Black Divine Seal as its own and would not allow any other fish or turtle to lay a finger on it. Another reason was the intense threat it sensed from Xu Yang.

A Green Fish had evolved from a common creature into a formidable Demon Monster in just a few years, consuming four of the five former rulers. Such a growth rate was far too terrifying, and even it felt a deep sense of threat.

Therefore, it made its move, a decisive one at that.

But decisiveness did not ensure success, and the strength of the Green Fish even exceeded its estimates.

This left the Giant Turtle very uneasy.

It was strong, the sole Demon Beast in Blackwater River, with almost no one able to stand up against it.

But it had flaws: its huge body was slow-moving, unable to chase agile prey.

Otherwise, it would have swept clean all the Demon Monsters, Spirit Monsters, and Alien Beasts in Blackwater River long ago.

It needed nourishment, lots of it, to aid its growth and enhance its strength and Cultivation.

Only then could it delve deeper into the Black Water Forbidden Area, find the

Divine Mansion, and claim the divine seal to become the legendary River God.

This was also one of the reasons it launched a sneak attack: a Dragon Species Green Fish of such size that had awakened Spirit Wisdom was surely prime nourishment. Such a boost, delivered right to its doorstep, how could it possibly miss out?

No way!

But it had failed.

What to do?

Chasing was out of the question; it would certainly not catch up. But to let it grow unchecked would surely become a major concern in the future.

I must speed up the search and find the Divine Mansion before that Green Fish, and take control of the divine seal!

The Giant Turtle looked in the direction Xu Yang had left, propped up its now-recovered body, and with thunderous steps entered the black waters for what seemed like the umpteenth time, embarking on another search..
