Chapter 63: The Tyrant Turtle
Bai Cangdong leaned against a large stone with some trepidation, his eyes scanning around, but he couldn't see where the tyrannical jade turtle would come out from.
Rumble!
A rocky peak burst forth like a fountain, and a white jade turtle crystal clear fell out from inside.
Bai Cang's eyes widened, and unlike the gigantic creature he had imagined that could shake mountains and rivers, the white jade turtle was only as big as a palm, but its four small legs ran extremely fast, moving like a whirlwind.
"This is the tyrant jade tortoise you were talking about, and you want to use this hook jade claw to hook it?" Bai Cangdong looked at the tyrant jade tortoise again, then looked at the hook jade claw in his hand. No matter what angle he looked from, the hook jade claw was bigger than the entire body of the tyrant jade tortoise, and there was simply no place to hook it.
"Hurry up, you just watch from the side first, when it's your turn, I'll naturally call for you." Peacock said a sentence, and together with the four-sided knight, they surrounded the Tyrant Jade Turtle from left to right.
Bai Cangdong hastily retreated a short distance, the Jade Turtle was small, but the mark on its body was undoubtedly that of a Viscount, and Bai Cangdong did not dare to underestimate it.
Wow!
The powerful blow of the Four Knights struck the body of the Byakuren, except for a clearer sound, no damage was done to the Byakuren.
The peacock's attack was the same, and it couldn't hurt the tortoise shell of the Ba Yu turtle at all. Instead, the Ba Yu turtle's four small legs ran extremely fast, colliding with the two people time and time again. However, neither of them dared to collide head-on with it, and every time the Ba Yu turtle charged over, they used their agility to dodge out of the way.
The white light of immortality of the tyrannical jade turtle forms a circular shield outside its body, whether attacking or defending, it collides with the shield, and is unimaginably solid.
Two men and a turtle engaged in a fierce battle, while Bai Cangdong watched with great interest.
The four-square knight's martial arts were ancient and grand, the peacock's martial arts were ingenious and exquisite. Bai Cangzi felt that even if he used all his skills, it would be very difficult to defeat the two of them. Moreover, both of their divine lights had already reached an extremely high level, which was not something he could contend with.
The Four Square Knights and the Peacock seem to be intentionally consuming the Undead Light of the Tyrant Turtle, their moves are well-measured, each dodge is just in time, trying not to waste their own divine light.
"Two such powerful figures, being so cautious in dealing with a mere Viscount-level undead, I wonder just how strong an Earl-level undead would be." Bai Cangdong thought to himself in shock.
Two people fought fiercely for half a day, under the deliberate actions of the Four Knights and Peacock, the undying light of the Tyrant Jade Turtle grew weaker and weaker, and the external light shield was almost invisible.
Boom!
The Four Cardinal Knights finally shattered the Radiant Shell of the Tyrant Turtle.
The tyrannical tortoise let out a strange scream, its body suddenly swelling up like a balloon being inflated with air, instantly transforming into a giant tortoise that was four to five meters tall.
"Little one, come out." The peacock shouted to Bai Cangdong.
Bai Cang Dong hurriedly ran over, and the Four Knights said beside him: "Follow me to hook."
Bai Cang nodded and watched as the Four Knights flew out with their Jade Claw, hastily following suit by throwing out his own Jade Claw.
The hook grabbed onto one side of the gigantic shell of the tyrannical tortoise, and the square knight shouted: "Pull with all your might!"
Bai Cangdong exerted all his strength to pull the jade chain, and the massive Jade Tortoise was actually pulled over by the two men's forces, lying on its back with four legs in the air, struggling wildly but unable to turn over.
The peacock summoned a cyan long sword, with a brilliant light on the blade, and cut off the four legs of the tyrannical jade turtle with four consecutive swords.
"Mission accomplished." The peacock sheathed his sword and retreated back to the side of the Knights of the Four Directions, looking at him with a nimble appearance, this was not the first time he had done something like this.
The tyrannical jade turtle monster cried out incessantly, having lost its four legs it was even more unable to turn over, blood ceaselessly gushing out, finally dying from excessive bleeding and transforming into countless flowing lights that dispersed in the air.
Ding Dong!
Something fell on the ground, and both the knight from all sides and the peacock's face were delighted. They rushed over to see what it was, but their faces turned extremely ugly when they saw it.
Bai Cang walked over to take a look, and the White Jade Coin that fell out was not the Turtle Shell Armor they had been hoping for, but rather a white jade square hole coin.
"I told you, your premonitions have never been accurate. There's no jade tortoise shell, only a jade tortoise coin. We'll have to wait another two months." After finishing speaking, the peacock suddenly flew away with a flash of its tail feathers and disappeared from sight in just a few flaps.
The four-sided knight picked up the jade tortoise coin on the ground, took a look at it, and casually threw it to Bai Cangdong: "You also made some effort, take it and play with it."
Bai Cang took over the Yu Gui coin, only to see that it was a white jade carved square hole coin, with several turtle characters written on one side, and four jade turtles engraved on the other side.
"Is this really for me?" Bai Cangdong used it after and found that it was actually a Viscount-level equipment, but the quality was only Bronze.
Jade Tortoise Coin: The jade coin contained in the Jade Tortoise when it was born, which can be used to exchange for treasures of the tortoise tribe.
"It's yours naturally." The Four Knights said casually, seemingly not valuing the Jade Tortoise Coin much.
"How does this thing work? Where can I exchange it for the Turtle Clan's treasure?" asked Bai Cangdong, fiddling with the jade turtle coin.
"It's very simple, you just need to find a turtle tribe's undead and throw this jade turtle coin at it. After the turtle tribe's undead swallows the jade turtle coin, it will give you a treasure as a thank you." The Four-sided Knight paused for a moment, then continued: "However, don't have too much hope, we've had over 30 or 40 jade turtle coins before, and tried to exchange them with many turtle tribes' undead. Most of the time, we got baron-level equipment, and sometimes even useless things without any level. We only saw viscount-level equipment once, but it was a pair of useless war boots, and there was only one."
Hearing the Four Knights say this, Bai Cangdong suddenly realized: "No wonder you all looked down on the Jade Turtle Coin and casually gave it to me. It turns out that this was a useless piece of junk from the start."
"Come on, follow me back to Fenghuacheng. I'll find a way to wash away the murderous intent from your body." The Four-sided Knight stood up and was about to leave the abyss.
"You always say I have a murderous intent on me, but I don't feel it at all. What is that murderous intent after all?" Bai Cangdong had not yet obtained a strand of the Sun's True Fire and was unwilling to leave the Abyss just like this.
"Have you ever found yourself getting angrier more easily, and having a strong urge to kill in your heart?" The Four Knights looked at Bai Canghai and asked.
Bai Cangdong didn't say a word, and before he hadn't felt it, but after the Four-sided Knight said it, he thought carefully and realized that recently he had indeed been easily moved to kill, which seemed somewhat different from his previous character.
"You have the urge to kill not because you are bloodthirsty by nature, but because you were influenced by other factors, which led to the unconscious emergence of murderous thoughts. Generally, there are two possibilities for being infected with murderous thoughts: one is that you were cursed by a certain undead tribe, and if you continue killing, you will eventually be controlled by that undead tribe and become a puppet that slaughters your own kind. The other possibility is that you practiced a certain martial art or longevity technique that produces murderous thoughts. The consequences of this are similar to the first possibility, where you will be controlled by murderous thoughts and become a killing machine. However, if it's the latter situation, when you break free from the murderous thoughts, it means that your martial art or longevity technique has reached perfection, and your strength will greatly increase at that time."
"What kind of situation do you say I am in?" asked Bai Cangdong with a mixture of trust and doubt.
"I don't know, the two situations are the same in the early stages, unless you become a puppet of the undead or break through your own self-cultivation to practice martial arts or longevity techniques, only then can you distinguish which kind of murderous intention belongs to you."
"Aren't you just spouting nonsense? At this point, what's the use of even distinguishing between them?" Bai Cangdong said irritably.
"So no matter which one it is, as long as we directly wash away our murderous intentions, you won't have to worry about this anymore."
"Can you find a way to directly wash away your murderous intentions?"
"There is a way, but it's a bit of trouble. First follow me back to Fenghuacheng, and then I'll think of a way to dispel your murderous intentions."
Bai Cangdong was about to say something, when he suddenly saw a black-red light column rushing out of the abyss, shooting up into the sky and then transforming into a canopy that covered everything.
"The altar of the undead has descended into the world!" Bai Cangdong was stunned for a moment, his heart shocked to the extreme.
There are many undead in the hurricane abyss, and there is no shortage of terrifying existences at the viscount level. The appearance of an undead altar here is far from comparable to the two undead altars he encountered before.
The four-sided knight was also shocked: "The altar of the undead is actually born here, it's over, this time it's really all over. The five successors of the city lord are all inside, surrounded by the eight-eyed heavenly king, and they will probably die here this time."
"At this time you still have the mood to worry about them, we are also within the area of the Undying Altar, let's first think about how to save our own lives." Bai Cangdong said with a bitter face.
"It's difficult, in this region there are at least tens of thousands of undead barons and hundreds of viscounts. After the transformation through the altar of the undead, this will be a force that can destroy cities and nations, something we cannot contend with." The Four-sided Knight shook his head.
"Is it possible to rush up to the altar and shatter the Eternal Crystal before those undead react?" Bai Cangdong still held a glimmer of hope.
"It's tough, I can barely handle one mutated Eight-eyed Heaven King, and the outcome is still uncertain. However, there are nearly ten undead creatures in this area that are no weaker than the Eight-eyed Heaven King. The strongest one, Hellfire Messenger, has already reached the threshold of advancing to Earl rank. After undergoing mutation through the Undead Altar, its strength has approached the Earl level infinitely, and it can be said that it is an invincible existence among Viscounts. Unless Lord City Master is also here, we have almost no hope of escaping the ascension."
"We have to try no matter what, we can't just sit and wait for death." Bai Cangdong didn't want to give up his hope of survival, he was still young, hadn't lived enough, and wasn't willing to die silently.
"What you said is not wrong, in any case, it's necessary to try. " The four-sided knight summoned his own armed forces, and his whole body was instantly wrapped in heavy armor, and the golden lion beast also appeared beside him.
