Don’t Mess with that Turtle
Chapter 129 - 129 002 Tiger Whale_1

129: Chapter 002 Tiger Whale_1 129: Chapter 002 Tiger Whale_1 Time gracefully passed by, day after day.

Rain fell from the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and dark clouds upheld the heavens.

Feng Yaya had run off to who knows where, and Su He was submerged at the bottom of the sea, introspecting with the Bright Mirror.

Day Six:

Status: In estrus

Offering Bones: 9%

Internal Organs: 10%

Effect: Normal food keeps the Offering Bones speed unchanged, Internal Organs slow down.

Two-star Heterogeneous Beasts increase Internal Organs by 6%~8%, Offering Bones by 2%~3%.

Three-star Beasts, Internal Organs 7%~11%, Offering Bones 3%~5%.

The attributes displayed on the Bright Mirror were not fixed but changed at will according to Su He’s thoughts.

Except for the status column, which was locked and uncontrollable, it had to be shown.

It was originally designed this way to prevent special statuses like being poisoned or dizzy from being overlooked.

This diary-like feature was new, and Su He had mysteriously mastered it upon waking up.

Su He guessed that the “Bright Mirror” had spread and that someone had improved it.

Su He then used it to record the details of his cultivation and the patterns of the dice.

For instance, what hours and locations were best for cultivation—Su He’s Boundary Status was still low, making it difficult to sense the most subtle variations in Spiritual Power, but the Bright Mirror could.

These past few days were spent recording the impact of food on cultivation.

Compared to bones, internal organs were more affected by food.

Generally speaking, the higher the quality, the better the effect, with fish, shrimp, and crabs having a better absorption effect than wild rabbits and deer for Su He.

But the effect was even better if meat and vegetables were mixed.

Still experimenting, Su He had not yet summarized the optimal combination of foods.

“Pu!”

Su He blew away a small fish that swam up to his nose and stared at him, the little creatures were basically not afraid of him, their fear of sharks far outweighed their fear of Su He.

Probably because Su He didn’t eat them.

The vast ocean encompassed all, and never lacked Exotic Beasts.

Every thirty to forty miles, there would be a one-star Beast, and if Su He was willing to travel, he could always find two or three two-star or even three-star Beasts within three to five hundred miles.

The only trouble was that the ocean was too vast, making robbery somewhat difficult.

It was hard to train long-term provisions; preparing to domesticate after a fight, he might take a snooze and the critter would have escaped, nowhere to be found.

He drew two Position Symbols, one now drifting thousands of miles away, and the other had disappeared, probably eaten by other Exotic Beasts.

With a stroke of his limbs, Su He swam towards the sea surface.

Still some distance from the surface, he heard Ya Ya’s shouts, “Big Turtle, Big Turtle, stop it, quick!”

Su He surged through the water, breaking the surface just in time to see Ya Ya using two vines to tie up a Tiger Whale.

Panicking, the whale swam rapidly, dragging Ya Ya who skimmed barefoot over the sea surface.

Going too fast, Ya Ya broke through the surface, creating two walls of water that completely covered her, with only a glimpse of her red dress and her excited shouts audible.

There was a bump on the Tiger Whale’s head with the imprint of a small fist, under which six stars shimmered.

“Big Turtle, catch it!” Ya Ya shouted.

A Six-star monster, a level higher than Su He, but—fightable!

Su He slapped his tail, creating waves beneath him, and with a sudden stroke of his claws, he shot out, the rolling waves carrying him straight toward the Tiger Whale.

A Six-star monster was worth domesticating as a long-term meal ticket.

With Ya Ya behind and the Giant Turtle in front, anger flashed in the whale’s eyes.

It let out a shrill cry, dipped its head, and increased speed, smashing through the waves to charge directly at Su He.

This was one of its usual skills; normally it could shatter even a small island with a head-on collision.

Su He’s Dragon Head couldn’t be retracted into the Turtle Shell anymore, but he faced it with awe-inspiring fearlessness, covered by the External Appearance, the waves beneath growing fiercer, propelling him with a thunderous force to meet the Tiger Whale.

“Bang!”

A powerful, muffled crash resounded.

Su He felt like he had slammed headfirst into a mountain, then was bounced back.

Like a volcanic eruption, the collision caused the waves to explode thunderously, shooting up towards the sky.

Even the downpour was scattered.

Long after, it crashed down like a waterfall.

The entire world within sight was but tumultuous ocean waters.

Feng Yaya screamed excitedly as she was flung into the air and bounced across the sea surface before disappearing into the distance.

Only a string of excited shrieks were left behind.

Su He shook his head and looked ahead.

The Tiger Whale’s head had caved in but hadn’t burst open, hardly a fatal wound for a Six-star beast.

But the entire fish had flipped over and was now unconscious.

Incredulity still painted the whale’s face.

For the first time, the Tiger Whale was beaten head-on using its most proficient skill.

This Turtle full of sharp teeth didn’t come to bite but to ram?

Su He swam towards the Tiger Whale.

As he approached, the whale suddenly rolled over, its tail flicked, and a whirlpool formed in the sea, swirling directly towards Su He.

Grandson thief!

Playing dead!

This was considered high spirit intelligence among the exotic beasts.

The whirlpool was a common hunting skill the Tiger Whale used to catch sharks: a flick of its tail created a whirlpool that drew in the sharks, then another flick would knock them out, allowing it to feast at will.

However, this Tiger Whale’s whirlpool was vastly different; the speed of the water created steam over the whirlpool, which in turn whipped into a tornado, howling as it curled towards Su He.

Su He watched the whirlpool, a flash of surprise and delight in his eyes.

Water could be used this way too?

He’d never tried controlling water in such a manner before, and he learned a new move.

Su He reached a claw into the whirlpool, communicating with the water, and pressed down then lifted.

Whoosh~Bang!

The sea surface sank down, then was lifted into the air, turning into a torrential downpour that pelted down.

The Tiger Whale was left utterly dumbfounded; its unbeatable whirlpool had failed.

Su He looked at it.

Playing with water in front of a Dragon Turtle, this whale really was somewhat tiger-like.

It wasn’t until he came to the sea that Su He truly grasped the essence of the Dragon Turtle, which was meant to be in the ocean!

Every drop of water seemed alive, moving at will.

This wasn’t Divine Skills; it was instinct!

Su He thought for a moment, then mimicked the Tiger Whale’s technique, waving a claw to form a whirlpool.

It chased down the Tiger Whale, catching it inside and spinning it wildly.

The Tiger Whale cried out in terror: “Ya Wu~ Ya Wu~”

First came futile terror, followed by pleas for mercy.

“Wa Wa!” Feng Yaya also shrieked as the whirlpool pulled her back, looking somewhat lost yet excitable, finding the whole experience thrilling and fun.

Su He pressed down the whirlpool, stilling the ocean surface.

The Tiger Whale lay shivering on the water, while Feng Yaya flopped onto its back, letting the falling water hit her, just laughing heartily, oblivious to her own mirth.

Su He realized the girl had become uplifted.

Previously, she never dared to come to the surface unless she was on the Turtle Shell; swimming in the water was as taboo as flying in the sky for her, but these past few days the little girl seemed to become more open, even daring to enter the water to catch a Tiger Whale.

The ocean water flung into the sky, with fish, shrimp, and crabs falling down, created a spectacular pitter-patter.

After a long while, the ocean surface gradually calmed down.

The Tiger Whale, fins retracted, looked at Su He with obedience and trepidation.

Feng Yaya ran back and forth on its back quite cheerfully, “Big Turtle, Big Turtle, there’s a school of big fish over there, this one was the fiercest, it wanted to eat my piglet, but I beat it…

Huh?

Where’s my pig?”

Feng Yaya paused, then became furious: “Did you eat it?!”

She slapped the Tiger Whale on the forehead, causing a swelling to form, and smacked it back into place.

The Tiger Whale made an agonizing wail.

At that moment in the distance, a wild pig was grunting as it swam towards a small island.

Too terrifying, it thought.

Why would a pig be out at sea?
