Thinking of this, Xu Luo's eyes turned red and he looked at the underwater giant turtle again.
After such a long period of turbulent river water, all the debris and sand on the giant turtle's back were washed away, revealing a hard gray-black carapace.
There are two faint bulges on the pointed cone-shaped head, and circles of spiral patterns appear in the blood-red pupils. This is actually the turtle leaning on the sky recorded in the skull classics.
It is said that if this ferocious beast reaches adulthood, its body will cover the sky and the sun, and its limbs will be like pillars supporting the sky, hence its name!
Xu Luo was not too surprised when the Pillar Sky Turtle appeared in Shenmu Continent. This kind of ferocious beast could only live to adulthood under the protection of Tongtianmu.
Its indestructible back armor is the best material for refining rare protective spiritual objects!
For the Sky Turtle, despite its huge size, it is actually still a juvenile.
The Sky Turtle doesn't need any hard training or anything like that. It just needs to eat more flesh and blood spiritual things, have a good sleep, wake up, continue eating, and continue sleeping, and the realm of cultivation will naturally increase.
After all, time has long lost its meaning to them.
The little guy in front of you may have just developed intelligence, so let him go!
Xu Luo was about to look away in boredom, but suddenly he glanced out of the corner of his eye, and clearly saw the blood-red pupils of Zhu Tiangui, but there was no look of fear at all.
He was startled. How could this look look like that of an underage turtle?
This little guy is actually acting all the time!
Xu Luo jumped into the air from the spirit boat and confessed to Zhihe who had just walked out of the cabin.
"I went to the bottom of the water. I'm afraid this turtle is a little dishonest, and I almost got deceived by it."
Zhihe reached out and touched the head of the dragon rat, and a clear sight of the huge creature under the water appeared in front of his eyes.
At this moment, Xu Luo, who was above him, had already stepped heavily on its back, and the turtle's huge body began to tremble crazily as if it had been struck by lightning.
A fierce light flashed in Xu Luo's eyes, and black light swarmed out from various acupoints, completely draining the surrounding river water.
Finally, the Sky Turtle could no longer withstand the huge force of the surge, and screamed as it hit the bottom of the water.
Boom, the bottom of the water suddenly erupted like a volcano, spurting the mighty river water directly into the air.
The turbulent water slammed against the shore, making a loud roar, and some birds and animals that were drinking water from the river fled as fast as they could into the distance.
But Xu Luo didn't stop there. He stepped firmly on the back of the turtle, and no matter how hard it struggled, it still stood as motionless as a rock.
Instead, under the pressure of the huge force, the huge body of the Sky Turtle sank little by little into the mud at the bottom of the water.
Xu Luo controlled the force and pressed down little by little, but he immediately blocked the flow of Qi and blood in Zhutian Turtle's body.
In other words, at this time, the turtle is no different from its clumsy cousins in the ordinary world.
Over the years, Xu Luo's hands have been stained with countless killings. Naturally, he has long understood that in fact, what is more terrifying than death is the process of dying.
Especially for those who have already entered the path of spiritual practice, seeing their spiritual energy disappearing and their lives disappearing little by little, the fear and uneasiness is the most terrifying thing.
Zhuantian Turtle is currently in the process of this!
No matter how hard it struggled, it could only watch the mud and debris block its mouth and nose bit by bit, and then completely submerge its entire body.
It was pitch black before his eyes, and all his spiritual consciousness was imprisoned in his body. This kind of deathly silence and loneliness instantly filled Zhutiangui's mind.
At this moment, it felt regretful that it shouldn't have been clever. The big devil above was obviously an easy person to deal with.
I was actually thinking about playing some tricks with the two-legged beasts, and I was really in a daze!
Heavy pressure was pressing on the Sky Turtle from all directions, and even it could faintly hear the back armor it had always been proud of making an overwhelmed creaking sound under the heavy tread.
It was crying and begging for mercy in the sea of consciousness, hoping that Xu Luo would let it go. From now on, it will definitely be beaten wherever the master points it out. It's a pity that I am still so young, and I don't even have a mother-in-law to ask for!
As if hearing the cry from the bottom of his heart, the pressure on his back suddenly relaxed, and the Sky Turtle was delighted to find that his spiritual consciousness could extend outside his body.
The perceptible scene almost stopped him from crying. He saw the two-legged beast looking at him with a half-smiling expression on his face.
The sky turtle condensed into a shadow in the water, its limbs stretched out from its back shell like a hanged ghost, and it lay directly in front of Xu Luo.
"Master, it was Xiaodouzi who was wrong, please forgive me this time!"
Xu Luo almost choked on his water when he heard the deep voice that suddenly appeared in his mind, Xiaodouzi! Are you serious?
But now the Sky Turtle does still have some effect, Xu Luo just wants to teach him a lesson so that he will be more honest in the future.
Xu Luo pretended to ponder for a moment before nodding slightly.
"Okay! I'll forgive you for now, but if you dare to act clever in front of the master again in the future, even Tongtianmu won't be able to protect you."
I leaned on the turtle's big head and nodded, thinking that I would be out of the sea of suffering soon.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Xu Luo finished speaking, his big hand had already slapped it hard, and directly scattered the phantom of the spiritual consciousness that had just condensed. With a heavy foot strike, the force was increased by 30%.
Bang, the Sky Turtle, which was almost completely submerged in the mud, sank a full foot again.
The painful feeling of dying just now enveloped its mind again, and at the same time, Xu Luo's cold voice also sounded.
"Xiaodouzi, right? Remember this feeling. Don't forget it, because this is the last time you will experience this feeling."
Xiaodouzi was stunned for a moment, but he immediately understood.
The meaning of this sentence is very simple. If it happens again, I am afraid that I will never have this painful experience again.
With this devil's ruthless and cruel methods, he might just peel off the shells and bones and make soup...
Hey, where did I hear this and how could I say it so smoothly?
Just a moment later, Xu Luo had already withdrawn his strength and returned to the Xingshu Ark. Zhihe came up to him with a smile on his face.
"Brother, aren't you afraid that the turtle will run away in fear?"
Xu Luo knew that there was a dragon and a mouse, and what happened just now could not be hidden from him at all, so he just waved his hands and laughed.
"No, this turtle named Xiaodouzi may not look big, but he is actually very timid. Next, you should pay more attention to it.
Since we have decided to take the water route, it can save us a lot of trouble."
Little Douzi, you are timid!
Zhihe silently glanced underwater, just as the Sky Turtle was cowering and raising its hideous head out of the water.
One person and one turtle looked at each other, Xiaodouzi quickly retracted his big head back into the water, Zhihe didn't know what he thought of, and a trace of sadness suddenly flashed on his face, and he suddenly said softly.
"Brother, from now on, can you let me take care of Xiaodouzi?
I promise that it will obey your words and do its best from now on, but can the eldest brother also promise the younger brother something?"
Xu Luo looked at him in astonishment, then turned to look at the turtle with a fearful expression that was completely inconsistent with his body shape. He suddenly spoke subconsciously.
"You are the only one on this Lingshu boat who has such patience. If not, who will take care of it? If you want senior brother to agree to something, just say it."
"If we come back alive in the future, how about we not take Xiaodouzi's life?"
Zhihe did not dare to look up at Xu Luo, but stared closely at the turtle under the water. Xu Luo couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.
"Of course you have the final say on such small things, but brother thinks that since it's in the past, don't think about it anymore, okay?"
Zhihe was stunned for a moment, then he laughed out loud in embarrassment.
"Listen to big brother, I'm afraid I can't change my little brother's heart problem."
Xu Luo stopped discussing this topic and pointed forward.
"Calculating the time, it's almost a day since we entered Shenmu Continent. Are you looking for a human settlement ahead?
Since it’s a show, let’s be more realistic, and we should find a place to rest for a while.”
Zhihe nodded.
"But brother, we are playing the role of a caravan, so what should we do with the goods now?"
Xu Luo also had a headache when he thought about this problem. Are there any good things?
Of course there are, there are a lot of spiritual treasures in everyone's storage bags, but they are all used for fighting and saving lives, and no one dares to take them out at this time.
The previous plan was to go alone to explore the road, so there wouldn't be too many props and goods, but now there are a lot of people traveling on boats, and even ghosts won't believe it if you just show off three melons and two dates!
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Xiaodouzi sneaking out his head again, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Since the little bean has been handed over to you, let's squeeze out some oil and water from it. It just so happens that our thing is too heavily imprinted by the sect.
This little guy has been dominating this river for many years, so I thought I'd give him a few bottles and cans to let him bleed a little bit."
After Xu Luo finished speaking, he seemed to feel that he had gone too far, and quickly got back into his cabin, leaving Zhihe alone in the wind and messy.
This really means squeezing out two ounces of oil from your bones. Xiaodouzi, if you have such a master, you will definitely suffer a lot in the future!
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at the Zhutian Turtle. The silly turtle was still grateful for Zhihe's kindness just released, but this time when Zhihe looked at it again, it couldn't help but feel cold all over.
"This is Jurenwu?"
Xu Luo looked at the small town of Lixu built next to the water in front of him, his eyes a little stern, and Zhi He nodded with a stern face.
"According to what Xiaodouzi said, this place is still a settlement of human race on the surface, but it has long been secretly controlled by the strange tribe, and all the races inside have been reduced to flesh and blood slaves...
These bastards!"
Before Zhi He could finish his words, he couldn't help but curse loudly.
According to Xiaodouzi, there were more than a thousand people in Jurenwu two years ago, but now it has decreased instead of increasing, and there are only about 300 young people left.
Don't think it is a good thing, just because most of the old, weak, women and children did not survive this period.
As for why it is so clear that it is a turtle that is leaning on the sky, it is very simple, because everyone here used to worship the Baiyu River turtles that are leaning on the sky.
However, the Zhutian Turtle has always had a lazy temperament, so what he asked for was just something to fill his stomach, so it was not too harsh. The two parties could get along with each other and get what they needed.
In a sense, this place can be regarded as the ancestral power of Xiaodouzi.
But now that the Wei tribe is here, how can they offer sacrifices to the Heaven-Zhuan Turtle? Tsk tsk, isn’t the flesh and blood of the Heaven-Zhuan Turtle delicious?
Looking at Jurenwu who was getting clearer and clearer in his sight, Xu Luo suddenly stood up and gently landed on Xiaodouzi's big head, which was peeking out.
Xiaodouzi's whole body trembled slightly, but he immediately raised his head stiffly, fearing that he would be dissatisfied!
"Zhihe, don't approach the shore yet. Xiao Shitou and I will sneak in from the Baiyu River to have a look."
Zhihe was stunned for a moment but immediately realized that Xu Luo must have found something wrong. He nodded without any worry.
"Senior brother, remember to bring the shadow talisman. If something unexpected happens, please don't forget our companions!"
Xu Luo heard the complaint in these words, and knew that Zhihe was afraid that he would rush forward alone again, so he smiled and waved.
"Why don't you and Xingshu Zhou pretend to pass by first, so that you won't arouse suspicion."
Seeing Zhi and Zhiji nodding, Xu Luo and Xiaodouzi quickly sank into the water and disappeared.
Next to Nianxiang Lane is Gushui River, a tributary of Baiyu River, which is also the earliest settlement of Jurenwu.
Both sides of the river are lined with densely packed low-rise houses, and the alleys are narrow and winding.
From time to time, you will see someone leaning against the low earth wall behind them and looking up at the sky, greedily sucking in the sunlight shining on their face.
His numb and pale complexion looked like he had just crawled out of the earth.
Xu Luo quietly climbed ashore from the Gushui River, but at this time, his figure was in the sun, but there was not even a shadow.
He waved his hand toward the river behind him, turned into a small bean the size of an ordinary turtle, and sank to the bottom of the water knowingly.
Xu Luo didn't waste any more time and walked forward along the narrow alley, but the further he walked, the more indifferent his expression became.
There are a lot of houses all around, but you can't hear any hustle and bustle, and you can't see the neighborhood, let alone normal human fireworks like children playing.
Except for the suppressed groans of pain from time to time, the surroundings were completely silent. Even though the sun was shining brightly, Xu Luo still couldn't notice the slightest bit of warmth.
A corner suddenly appeared in front of the alley, and Xu Luo was about to step across it, but suddenly stopped.
A strange old woman suddenly appeared in front of him. The alley was not wide, and the two of them immediately looked at each other as if they were very close.
Xu Luo was obviously confident that no one in this small town could see through her whereabouts, but she was still shocked at this moment.
How is it possible that this old woman can hide her feelings?
But after just a glance, Xu Luo suddenly realized that the old woman's eyes were white and cloudy, and only her nose was still trembling slightly. She was obviously dying.
You can just say that this kind of person is a living dead. Xu Luo was continuing to walk forward, but suddenly turned his head and looked at the old woman in disbelief.
The mother-in-law's clothes were in rags, and the strips of cloth could only cover her shriveled private parts. Dirty cement stains on the floor were smeared all over her body, and her pupils could only be slightly white.
But when Xu Luo moved, her white pupils began to rotate strangely, as if she could see Xu Luo using his invisible escape technique.
Xu Luo walked to her side and found that the eyes like dead fish were still staring at him.
Now he was really sure that the old woman could really see her, or maybe she could sense him.
