When Zhou Wen arrived at the Lu family's residence, the members of the Lu family received him warmly.
However, when Zhou Wen mentioned the dimensional creature, the Lu family member who received him only briefly explained the situation. Then, he told Zhou Wen that he hoped he could stay at the Lu family's residence for two days. When everyone else arrived, the Lu family head would personally take them to the place where the dimensional creature appeared.
After asking, he learned that the An family wasn't the only one who had accepted the Lu family's invitation. Even the Xia and Zhang families had sent people over. There were also many famous freelance hunters.
The Lu family planned on taking them with them after everyone arrived. When the time came, whoever had the ability to kill the dimensional creature on the spot would receive the conditions offered by the Lu family.
Zhou Wen felt that this was fair. As a member of the Lu family, they only hoped to resolve the problem. As for who killed the dimensional creature, they didn't care.
However, Zhou Wen didn't plan on staying at the Lu family's residence. Since he would only set off in two days, he left the Lu family first. He planned on visiting the nearby dimensional zones to take a look. He might be able to find the tiny palm symbol.
There were four to five famous dimensional zones in Sea Gazing City. The most famous one was half on land and half in the sea. That dimensional zone was named Turtle Tomb.
In fact, Turtle Tomb wasn't a tomb, but a dimensional zone with countless sea turtles. It included a large beach and a portion of the shallow sea.
The reason for the name Turtle Tomb was related to an ancient myth.
As ancient people didn't understand the principle of water circulation, and seeing rivers flowing into the sea day and night without the seawater overflowing, they believed that there was a huge abyss in the east of the sea. All the seawater eventually flowed into the bottomless abyss.
This abyss was known as the Sinkhole by the ancients.
Above the East Sea, there were five immortal mountains — Daiyu, Yuanjiao, Fanghu, Yingzhou, and Penglai. As the immortal mountains were hit by the water, they constantly drifted in the direction of the Sinkhole, making everyone worry.
A Sea God was afraid that the immortal mountains would slide into the Sinkhole. Therefore, he sent fifteen gigantic sea turtles. Three sea turtles in a group held back the five immortal mountains, preventing them from sliding into the Sinkhole.
At first, everything was fine. But after who knows how many years, a few giants came to the seaside and used bait to catch six turtles. They untied the ropes on the backs of the turtles.
As a result, he got into big trouble. The two immortal mountains, Daiyu and Yuanjiao, lost the pull of the sea turtle and eventually sank into the Ultimate. The only immortal mountains left on the sea were Fanghu, Yingzhou, and Penglai.
The Turtle Tomb was said to be the place where the giants cooked the six turtles and threw the turtle shells on the beach. Every time the tide rose, the giant turtle shell would be submerged, and when the tide fell, the turtle shell would be exposed.
Zhou Wen didn't know if the legend was true or false. However, in the Turtle Tomb, large reefs would appear after the tide ebbed. They were like tiny islands, and there were a total of six of them. On each island, there were many different species of dimensional turtles.
All the sea turtles in Turtle Tomb only had one Companion Form — armor. Furthermore, their defense was extremely strong. Among Companion Beasts of the same level, the sea turtle's defense could be said to be top-notch.
Some special types of turtle armor could be said to have freakish defensive power.
Furthermore, this place also produced a very famous Primordial Energy Skill, Turtle Breathing. It was available from the Mortal stage to the Epic stage. After practicing Turtle Breathing, one could temporarily stop one's heartbeat and breathing. The higher the level of Turtle Breathing, the longer one could last. It was a necessary skill for feigning death.
Previously, Liu Yun had feigned death. He had used Turtle Breathing, and it was at the Epic stage.
Of course, the true use of Turtle Breathing wasn't to feign death, but to converge one's aura. It prevented dimensional creatures that relied on their auras to determine the location of humans from discovering their existence. The effect was equivalent to invisibility.
As for the Mythical Turtle Breathing, legend had it that someone had dropped, but no one had seen it.
When Zhou Wen arrived at Turtle Tomb, it wasn't even noon. From afar, he could see many people fighting sea turtles on the beach. And not far away, he could see several huge reef islands. There were much fewer humans on them.
The sea turtles on the beach weren't of high levels. They were basically at the Mortal stage. Most of the people who came here to hunt sea turtles were people who hadn't cultivated for long.
Zhou Wen wasn't interested in the sea turtles here, but he still walked slowly along the beach, searching for the tiny palm symbol.
Before coming, An Sheng had told Zhou Wen a legend. Someone said that if the six reef islands formed from turtle shells floated away one day, they would definitely head to the Sinkhole to continue completing their mission. By following them, he might be able to find Daiyu and Yuanshen Immortal Island that had sunk into the Sinkhole.
"Why is he here?" On the beach of Turtle Tomb, two men saw Zhou Wen. One of them asked in puzzlement.
"The An family must have sent him to hunt that dimensional creature and obtain Fiend Dust resources for the An family," said another man.
These two men weren't real men, but Uesugi Nao and the female guard who had used a transformation spell. It wasn't convenient for them to come to Sea Gazing City with their own identities, so they could only use a transformation spell to change their appearances and secretly come to Sea Gazing City.
They were the same as Zhou Wen. Because of the Lu family, they had no choice but to temporarily stay in Sea Gazing City. Since they had nothing to do, they came to Turtle Tomb to take a look.
This was an open dimensional zone. Anyone could come and there was no need for any identification. They naturally looked down on the sea turtles on the beach. Just as they were about to head to Turtle Shell Island, they never expected to see Zhou Wen.
Uesugi Nao's eyes darted around as she said to the female guard, "Let's go over and greet him."
"Why cause trouble?" The female guard was somewhat unwilling.
"He's here because he's our competitor. Isn't it more beneficial for us to think of a way to understand our competitor's information? Don't worry. I have a way to get information from him, "Uesugi Nao said as she walked towards Zhou Wen.
Although the female guard didn't agree with Uesugi Nao's actions, she still followed.
"Hello, are you Zhou Wen?" Uesugi Nao approached Zhou Wen and greeted him with a man's voice.
Zhou Wen had already sensed that someone was looking at him. He discovered Uesugi Nao and the female guard, but he didn't recognize them. He only felt that one of them had a somewhat familiar gaze.
Seeing them come over and greet him, Zhou Wen looked at them in puzzlement and said, "I'm Zhou Wen. Who are you?"
"You're really Zhou Wen. That's great. We're your fans. We especially admire you. I never expected to meet you here." Uesugi Nao pretended to be excited as she took out a notebook and pen and handed it to Zhou Wen. "Can I have your autograph?"
"No." Zhou Wen turned around and left.
His Explosive Fiend Man had the Death List skill. Signing it was equivalent to giving his life to the Explosive Fiend Man. Ever since he knew of such a skill, Zhou Wen basically stopped signing autographs, much less giving them to strangers.
