However, the tortoise didn't care and continued to fight with the Perching Dragon. Qi Nanshan stared at the hole in the shell and asked in surprise, "How thick is this thing?" As soon as he made his move, he knew that the golden spear formed by his Natal Rune Blade couldn't even pierce through the shell.
Mo Nier sneered, "This shell … is at least ten meters thick! The Natal Rune Blade you just used … it used up a bit of your soul power. It can probably pierce seven meters, so it's not a problem. "
Qi Nanshan sighed and shook his head, "I was just testing it, I didn't expect it to be so thick. But … the tortoise's back is the strongest part of its defense. Hehe, let's find its weak point and we should be able to break it."
Mo Nier said, "Only you can break it, Hawky and I can't."
Qi Nanshan wasn't afraid of battle. He nodded, "Alright, leave it to me! You guys just need to help distract it! " He was the same as the Dead Tree in this regard. He would never be modest or avoid a fight unless he wasn't strong enough. In that case, it wasn't a matter of courage but strength.
Mo Nier's eyes flashed with admiration, "Alright, we'll go attract the tortoise's attention. You attack!" Even though she was a woman, her aura wasn't any weaker than a man's.
Qi Nanshan looked back and couldn't help but wail in his heart. This thing was too big. It was like using a needle to stab an elephant. He didn't know where to start.
The tortoise's huge body was a problem for anyone who wanted to deal with it. This big guy wasn't a land creature, but an overlord of the sea. However, it had a weakness — its spawning period. It needed at least fifty to sixty years to lay eggs. During this time, it couldn't go into the sea. It could only stay in place and roar to attract other mutated rune beasts to fill its stomach. This was the reason why the Perching Dragon fell for it.
At the same time, the tortoise's slow movement was also a weakness. The Perching Dragon moved like the wind and repeatedly dodged its attacks. With Guo Shier's command, the tortoise didn't know where to start. It didn't dare leave the egg, giving Qi Nanshan and the others a chance.
The Perching Dragon roared again and again, but it didn't dare approach. It kept a distance of a kilometer and weakly provoked the tortoise. It was very depressed. If it wasn't forced by Guo Shier, it would've run or returned to the talisman.
The Sky Snake Robbery Tortoise was just as annoyed. It didn't dare to leave the place where the eggs were hatched, and it was hoping that the Perching Dragon would charge forward without a care for its life. Who knew that the Perching Dragon wouldn't come up no matter what? It just kept roaring, making the tortoise very impatient.
Qi Nanshan ran along the tortoise shell, trying to think of a way to kill this big guy, but the more he thought about it, the more helpless he became. Compared to the Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise, he was like an ant on an elephant. The difference between the two was too great.
The tortoise didn't have much to eat. If it was in the sea, it could choose what to eat. But on land, it only ate high level mutated rune beasts. Even so, it might not be able to eat one even after a few years, so it didn't want to let the Perching Dragon go. Suddenly, its entire body flashed with green rune light. One could see countless green rune shadows flashing on its black shell.
Guo Shier tensed up and commanded the Perching Dragon to slowly retreat.
The tortoise ignored the ant-like Qi Nanshan and focused its attention on the Perching Dragon. If it could kill the Perching Dragon, it wouldn't have to eat or drink for ten years until the egg hatching was complete. So, it couldn't let the dragon escape no matter what.
As the green runes on the tortoise's body flashed, the entire sky lit up. The ground was illuminated with green, but the murderous intent made the Perching Dragon even more afraid. Even with Guo Shier's command, it couldn't continue to provoke the tortoise. It could only retreat, shrinking its body.
Roar!
This was the real roar of the tortoise. Unlike the previous roar, which was used to lure the mutated rune beasts, the two were completely different. This time, the roar revealed the true might of a level 10 sea beast.
Qi Nanshan was running towards the Snake-Tribulation Tortoise's head when the roar shook his legs. He staggered a step before he could continue moving forward. As for Mo Nier and Falconer, they simply fell to the ground. Falconer cursed, "Fuck, this thing's roar is making me weak!"
Facing the Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise, the Perching Dragon was in an even worse state. It fell to the ground and shook like a sieve, swinging Guo Shier down from the sky. He couldn't help but curse, "What the hell is this thing … So fierce … There's no need to fight, just a roar is enough to kill me!"
This roar caused all the trees in front of the tortoise to collapse. It was as if a bomb had exploded, sending shockwaves across the area.
Guo Shier flew up again and gained a new understanding of the Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise. This thing was different from a land hegemon. It seemed to be more powerful. Before he could react, the Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise's huge head suddenly shrunk back slightly, then it stretched forward and opened its mouth at the same time. A sparkling blue light flickered and directly shot out.
The Perching Dragon didn't listen to orders anymore. Like a rabbit on fire, it frantically scurried to the left.
Guo Shier reacted quickly. He could feel his soul trembling. That was a sign of extreme danger. He teleported away without hesitation. Just as his figure disappeared, the blue light swept over.
The fan-shaped ground in front of the tortoise's head was instantly enveloped in blue light. The Perching Dragon was fast, but it was still hit by the blue light. In an instant, it condensed into a blue crystal dragon that was still running away with its claws and fangs bared. Although it had shrunk, it was still ten meters long. It looked as strange as it could get.
Guo Shi 'er teleported to the sky and looked down at the ground with lingering fear.
Everything that was touched by the blue light turned into ice crystals. He didn't know what the tortoise spat out, but it turned everything into ice. Even the sturdy rocks were covered in a thick armor of ice. From above, it looked like a fan-shaped world of ice had formed in front of the tortoise's head.
Guo Shier's heart skipped a beat. He cast a spell, and the Perching Dragon turned into a ball of essence soul. He stored it into a talisman. Guo Shier's heart ached. The Perching Dragon had used up at least ten percent of its essence soul, and its strength had dropped by ten percent.
The Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise was furious. It realized that the food that attracted its attention was gone! As for humans like Guo Shier, it didn't care at all. To it, these humans were too insignificant. It didn't have any desire to eat them. It angrily roared a few times, and its head slowly shrunk back into its shell.
Guo Shier stared blankly for a while before cursing, "Fuck, isn't this looking down on us!"
Qi Nanshan rushed to the edge of the tortoise's shell and watched as its head shrunk back into its shell. He was dumbfounded. How were they supposed to fight? The tortoise didn't care about them at all.
The tortoise moved its body for a moment, then stopped moving. From a distance, it looked like a giant black rock. It was impossible to imagine that it was a terrifying level 10 sea beast.
Guo Shier flew over and landed next to Qi Nanshan, "How do we kill it?"
Qi Nanshan smiled bitterly, "I don't know either … this thing is too strong."
"This should be a mutated sea beast, and a very strong one at that. It's equivalent to a level 11 mutated rune beast on land. In the sea, it would at least be as strong as a Shier level mutated rune beast. If we were all Great Saint Masters, we might be able to injure it, but we wouldn't be able to kill it. If it were to attack us with all its might … we wouldn't be able to win."
Falconer asked, "Are we just going to give up like this?"
Guo Shier thought for a moment, "That can't be right. If it's a mutated sea beast, then why is it on land?"
Mo Nier said: "The Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise's only purpose is to lay eggs. I think this is a Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise laying eggs. It's a pity that we aren't strong enough. If we could kill it, we would be able to obtain its eggs.
Qi Nanshan slapped the hard shell and smiled bitterly, "It's too difficult. This thing is too big. None of our attacks can injure it. Even if we could, we wouldn't be able to do anything as long as it escapes into the sea."
Guo Shier asked, "Grandpa Nanshan, can we burn its soul?"
Qi Nanshan replied, "Of course you can. The Black Talisman Man can burn any living being's soul, but the prerequisite is that you have to be able to break through its defenses!"
Guo Shier was speechless. The Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise's attacks were sharp, and its defenses were even more abnormal. He guessed that unless an expert like Ba Mo or Li Ran came, no one would be able to defeat this type of mutated sea beast. Perhaps experts like Zhu Jiamao or the Enchantress could kill it. As for Great Saint Masters, it would take at least a few hundred people to kill this Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise.
At this moment, Guo Shier finally understood how powerful his master Ku Mu was. He also realized that even though they were both Saint Masters, there was still a large difference in strength. Of course, even if Ku Mu was here, it would still be difficult for him to deal with the Sky Snake Tribulation Tortoise. The few of them might be able to deal with a level 10 mutated rune beast on land, but it would be very difficult to deal with a mutated sea beast.
Guo Shier smiled bitterly, "I thought … we would be enough to deal with a level 10 mutated beast." Mo Nier smiled, "Baby, don't be sad.
Mo Nier smiled, "Baby, don't be dejected. Tenth level mutated beasts … there are huge differences. Some are easy to deal with, while others are hard to deal with. Hehe, I know of a few Great Saint Masters who tried to deal with a ninth level mutated rune beast. They thought it would be a piece of cake, but in the end, they lost and even injured a Great Saint Master … anything can happen in the secret realm, don't worry, this Sky Serpent Tribulation Tortoise has no interest in us."
Guo Shier nodded. He now understood that levels didn't mean everything. The best example was when Professionals challenged those of a higher level. For example, Qi Nanshan, who had the ability to burn his opponent's soul, could challenge those of a higher level.
Qi Nanshan asked unwillingly, "Do we really have to give up?"
Guo Shi 'er smiled confidently and said, "No!"
