Don’t Mess with that Turtle
Chapter 136 - 136 009 Attributes_1

136: Chapter 009 Attributes_1 136: Chapter 009 Attributes_1 A frog had been lonesome here for thousands of years, its mind slow to process reality.

It suddenly dawned on it that this turtle was on the path of Divine God Beasts, speaking before becoming one; it had taken a wrong turn and comprehended some other Tao!

As the saying goes, only when one’s own Tao Rhythm is sufficient can one speak human language.

This turtle lacks even the Dragon Turtle Majesty, obviously not yet a Divine God Beast, so its ability to speak must rely on external Tao.

Unfilial!

Unfilial!

Ignoring the grand path of the Dragon Turtle, what nonsense are you trying to comprehend?

It stood up on the head of a Sea Dog, looking toward Su He, but from afar its vision was blurry.

So, it hopped onto a small chair and shouted toward Su He, “Croak!

Croak!”

Su He looked back in this direction.

The toad stretched its throat and yelled, “Youngster—the Dragon Turtle indeed has attributes!

Those with the Earth attribute, their strength boundless, bear mountains upon their backs; those with the Fire attribute, their bodies as bright as Mars, scorching heavens and earth; those with the Water attribute, their feet tread the vast ocean, bubble bubble bubble…”

While in the midst of passionate oration, the Sea Dog suddenly swerved to pounce on a starfish drifting by the waves, flipping the toad and its chair into the water, and a gulp of seawater flooded its windpipe, leaving the toad gurgling and choking.

Su He then saw a flash of green, the toad wielding a small whip, smacking the Sea Dog with a series of snaps.

The Sea Dog cried out in pain, not daring to move an inch, and only then did the toad settle back atop its head, looking mournfully at Su He again.

A wave of grievance washed over it; its beautiful parallelism had been interrupted…

Losing that feeling, the toad sighed and, grinding its teeth in frustration atop the Sea Dog’s head, called out to Su He, “Regardless of their attributes, they are first and foremost Dragon Turtles.

Only then do they possess attributes.

Don’t confuse the fundamental with the incidental!”

Su He was momentarily stumped, but realized that the toad was sincerely offering advice.

He solemnly sang a chant toward the toad in gratitude.

The toad sat back down atop the Sea Dog’s head, facing the soles of its feet towards each other, forepaws crossed in front of its chest, reflecting solemnly.

The Dragon Turtle must have gained some insight.

All my spontaneous eloquence…

Preoccupied with drawing parallels—do Dragon Turtles have Water, Earth, or Fire attributes?

It seems I’ve never heard of such a thing.

Flicking its claws, the toad let it go: Whatever, the meaning is clearly expressed.

Pity, all Divine God Beasts are stubborn mules, absolutely refusing to give True Blood if not willingly offered.

To think that I’ve finally encountered a young Dragon Turtle again, which not only doesn’t offer True Blood but has also strayed off course.

It’s even less likely to evolve into a Divine God Beast now!

To escape, my Turtle Egg is key!

The Sea Dog carried the toad away into the distance.

Feng Yaya watched the shrinking black dot on the sea, feeling a profound loss.

It was so hard to find such a small creature…

Next time we meet, I must teach it some manners.

Not to mention insulting others, it didn’t even say goodbye before leaving.

She pouted and returned to the small island where a wild pig had been scared witless, cowering and trembling on the ground.

Too terrifying, the ocean is too terrifying.

Besides that big fish, there was also this thing.

Its porcine pupils had even taken on the shape of a Sea Dog.

What a shame to have missed seeing Su He thrashing the Sea Dog yesterday.

Otherwise, who knows how it would have seen Su He.

Su He swam deeper into the sea, feeling relieved of a heavy burden.

Entering this space wasn’t a result of any conspiracy or trap, not lured in by someone else’s calculation.

It was a pure mishap—perhaps the Door of Three Lives from ancient times was never meant for battle; it is quite possible that the one orchestrated by Feng Yi Ju is actually a doorway for some Dragon Turtle returning home.

In the deep sea, a Tiger Whale floated silently on the surface, while the bodies of three young Tiger Whales had vanished without a trace.

Su He missed the renowned Whale Fall, but it was a blessing in disguise—he had consumed a double-quality Big King Cuttlefish, and now his belly was uncomfortably stuffed.

Su He looked toward the Tiger Whale, conveying emotions with his eyes, asking silently, feeling too full to speak.

“Where is the pod?”

Su He had instructed it to bring its pod here yesterday.

The world required exploration, even if there was a chance to ask the toad, the exploration must continue.

Soul Beasts and normal living creatures differ, existing between reality and illusion, neither truly real nor entirely imaginary.

Some places that are safe and navigable for Soul Beasts can be death traps for ordinary living creatures.

Like the Prison Ghost Space, for example!

The reverse is also true; many places that are common and mundane to ordinary creatures can be absolutely off-limits to Soul Beasts.

The Tiger Whale dared not look at Su He, its eyes flitting about restlessly, “Wa ya~ Wa ya~”

It cried out.

It probably meant that its hunting pack didn’t know where to go.

Su He glanced at it skeptically, indicating that it should immediately bring them over once the pack returned.

He parted the water and descended into the sea, sinking to the ocean floor.

This area of the seabed was the best place for cultivation Su He had found using the Bright Mirror.

The toad advised Su He not to stray from the right path, but now Su He wasn’t really deviating from his course, was he?

His whole purpose in cultivating was to transform into a Dragon Turtle, focusing on his blood, bones, and internal organs.

He was always moving towards becoming a Dragon Turtle.

The general direction was correct; even if he took a roundabout way, he wouldn’t go astray.

This was the true use of the Bright Mirror, always knowing what you’re doing!

Once the Bright Mirror becomes widespread in cultivation, it will surely trigger a minor climax in the Cultivation World.

This is a tool that can continuously gather merits.

Upon reaching the bottom of the sea, Su He saw a Two-star Sea Turtle, just a size smaller than himself, looking around restlessly, anxious in every move it made.

Suddenly catching sight of Su He, its eyes immediately lit up.

Su He was unsure how to feel about this, with a bitter-sweet laugh.

It wasn’t fear of losing his innocence; he was only three years old, his heart was willing but his strength was not yet adequate.

It’s just that the Sea Turtle here was too much of a distraction to his cultivation.

Su He hummed softly, a wisp of Divine God Might spread out, instantly stilling the fish and crabs around him, even the corals quieted as if sprayed with insecticide.

The Sea Turtle’s eyes rolled back, and it fainted.

This wisp of Divine God Might wasn’t enough to hurt it, but it would definitely make it sleep soundly for a while.

The ones who suffered were the fish and crabs around; with a swipe of his paw, Su He created a whirlpool, sweeping the upside-down fish, crabs, and Sea Turtle away.

Settling into the water, Su He curled up on the seabed and closed his eyes to cultivate.

Data updates on the Bright Mirror:

Status: Healthy·Full

True Blood: 89.9%

Offering Bones: 13%

Internal Organs: 14%

In one day, both the Offering Bones and Internal Organs had improved, greatly affected by the food!

He should have found a Cultivation Technique to strengthen digestion first, it’s a pity he didn’t.

Su He cultivated quietly.

Feng Yaya rode a wild boar through the forest at breakneck speed, feeling much more comfortable with a saddle and stirrups!

Green Snake was a good snake; she wouldn’t eat snake meat in front of her anymore.

But Green Snake always wanted to use Giant Lizard’s skin to make a saddle, which she was somewhat reluctant to give up.

Although the Giant Lizard was dumb, it felt good to hit it, soft and resilient.

Feng Yaya, riding the wild boar, burst through the jungle, swinging a bone club, and charged screaming toward another Giant Lizard, this one a Three-star Giant Lizard.

There were quite a few Giant Lizards on the other side of the island.

With one smash of the club, the Giant Lizard, before it even had a chance to scream, was sent flying, and the bone club in her hand snapped with a crack.

Feng Yaya stood with the broken club astride the boar, frozen in place, a bit unhappy on her face—it wasn’t as exhilarating as she had imagined…

Feeling an uncomfortable block in her heart, Feng Yaya’s strength had grown again after waking up.

She should have been able to fight for seventy or eighty rounds, being smacked off the boar by the Giant Lizard’s tail, and then spurting out strength in a dangerous moment for a tough, narrow victory.

But her strength grew too much, and she didn’t control it well.

This wasn’t fun anymore.

Still, hunting whales and treading the sea seemed more interesting.
