Don’t Mess with that Turtle -
Chapter 291 - 291 31 The Second Body_1
291: Chapter 31 The Second Body_1 291: Chapter 31 The Second Body_1 “Good!” the Toad complied and stepped back.
Su He once again looked towards the Dust Free Cover that trapped him, his Divine Sense and a strand of True Yuan slowly infiltrating the iron chain fishing net before him.
As soon as the True Yuan entered the net, it was immediately absorbed and dissipated; even the Divine Sense was no exception.
Marvelous!
Su He released another strand of True Yuan, slightly more than the last time, and as it entered the iron net, it was instantly absorbed just the same.
The Dust Free Cover strengthened by a faint trace.
Magical!
It was somewhat similar to his own Fu Mountain.
Su He bumped his head against the iron lock of the Dust Free Cover, his not-yet-fully-grown dragon horns touching the iron lock as he carefully comprehended it.
Perhaps because the roots of the dragon horns were connected to the sea of consciousness and even the Intention Orifice Barrier was composed of the roots of the dragon horns, the Dragon-Turtle Dragon Horn was the most sensitive organ.
Unfortunately, Su He was young, and his dragon horns had not fully grown, their true functions yet to awaken.
With the dragon horn pressing against it, a strand of True Yuan flowed along the dragon horn into it.
This time, Su He did not release it in bursts but as a steady trickle evenly seeping in, observing bit by bit how the Dust Free Cover absorbed the True Yuan.
As the True Yuan flowed in, the Dust Free Cover’s absorption continued unabated, pulsing with every absorption as though it were a heartbeat.
Each pulse revealed an almost imperceptible aura.
Within the Dust Free Cover, Su He could not understand most of the rules, but he managed to tease out a train of thought related to space, aura, and sealing…
With the help of the Barbarian King Refining World Technique, and feedback from the Qianjiang Playground,
there wasn’t much information, but it was enough for Su He to understand what the Dust Free Cover was.
Green Snake had understated it; the Sealed Emperor’s Palace wasn’t merely targeting the Dragon Turtle or the Four Spirits.
It was aiming at all enemies!
Within this Dust Free Cover, Su He felt his own aura, Green Snake’s aura, and even the aura of all the treasures he possessed.
As soon as it landed and formed a barrier, the Dust Free Cover collected all the auras within it.
These auras, amassed within the Dust Free Cover, turned any similar aura attacks into nourishment for the cover.
If Su Huanian had not previously revealed her aura in battle here, her Sword Qi would not be absorbed by the Dust Free Cover, and she could breach it from the outside.
Alternatively, Camel and Toad could come over and, in theory, break the Dust Free Cover.
But their attacks were so weak that it would take an awfully long time to break through—likely needing three to five hundred years at least.
The material of the Dust Free Cover itself is sturdy enough to make a special protective Magical Treasure.
To break the Dust Free Cover, Su He could only think of two methods.
Either a Dao companion whose aura hadn’t been recorded by the Dust Free Cover would break it from outside,
or he himself would make a leap forward in progress, like Opening the Second Tier.
If the nature of the True Yuan underwent a qualitative change, or if the Superior Spirit Snake on his back fully condensed, revealing a different aura and forcibly breaking through.
Another option would be to abandon one’s current Tao Cultivation and start anew with True Yuan of an entirely different attribute.
But this path is not feasible for a Divine God Beast, whose True Yuan emerges in the moment of crossing a tribulation, produced in coordination with the Origin and essence Qi throughout the body.
The opportunity to discard one’s Tao Cultivation doesn’t exist.
Even shattering a World Pearl is useless; Uncle Lei’s World Pearl shattered and merged with his Flesh Body, but his Tao Cultivation remained unaffected.
Unless one were to chop off the limbs of a Divine God Beast and destroy its Flesh Body.
But this would not be abandoning Tao Cultivation; this would be abandoning the Divine God Beast.
If he were skilled in Puppet Mechanism Technique, he could actually create a special new Puppet right here, possessing a brand-new aura that might break the Dust Free Cover.
But that was something Su He did not understand.
Actually, the most reliable method might be to use the newly acquired Netherworld to summon ghost creatures.
However, since Netherworld had only just entered his body and was still in the process of merging, Su He figured he would need at least a couple of months.
A couple of months by then, everything would have gone cold.
After it gathers together, the Dust Free Cover no longer collects new auras.
Why this is, Su He still didn’t know; the knowledge used in the Dust Free Cover is too complicated for him to understand.
To give an example, it’s like Su He is holding a computer now, aware that pressing the keyboard produces words, but not understanding why it does so.
It seems the fastest method would be to wait for someone to break it open.
If his master were here, he could certainly break out, as the Transforming Beast Guide’s human form and beast form give off completely different auras, and the Dust Free Cover can only record the true form revealed at the time of closure.
With a change of body, he could break it open.
Too bad, Divine God Beasts are unable to learn the Transforming Beast Guide.
Otherwise, having a second or even third body would make it much easier to handle various situations.
After all, Divine God Beast Divine Powers have long been thoroughly researched by many, making it easy to be targeted again and again…
At this point, Su He suddenly froze.
An incredible idea sprouted in the depths of his heart.
Putting aside the orthodox Transforming Beast Guide, the one Uncle Luo modified for Ya Ya, which took the route of Bloodline transformation…
There were two prerequisites: first, Consciousness into Beast, and then to survive the trial of the lost, and successfully awaken.
Second, the Bronze Pot must refine beast Essence Blood in a way that allows it to perfectly merge with one’s own.
Su Huanian had once misunderstood, thinking she had seized the chance of some Dragon Turtle’s transformation.
In fact, the Bronze Pot was fragile and could only refine ordinary beast Essence Blood.
And it’s impossible for ordinary beast Essence Blood to perfectly merge into a Dragon Turtle’s body.
Divine God Beasts pride themselves on their uniqueness, and their bodies inherently refuse to allow wild beast Essence Blood to merge.
Once Essence Blood enters the body, it’s immediately confronted by the army of True Blood and shattered into dust.
But…
Su He took out a drop of Peacock Blood Essence from the External Space, and although the peacock was a sub-branch of the Phoenix Clan and ranked lower than the Dragon Turtle, when he obtained the drop of blood, the dice had rolled a four-point quality.
Items that had their quality elevated by the dice could be perfectly absorbed by Su He.
This had already been confirmed.
Even when he was a Grass Turtle, consuming items with elevated quality was like a gluttonous brutal, only taking in without letting anything out.
Su He’s breathing became coarse; he had overcome the trial of transforming his consciousness into a beast, and he possessed a drop of Peacock Blood Essence that could be completely integrated.
He also had all the materials needed for the formation required for transforming into a beast.
Su Huanian had prepared them early for Ya Ya.
When he had previously taken Ya Ya into the External Appearance Space, he naturally took the formation with her.
With everything ready, was it possible for him to condense a second body?
For a time, Su He was somewhat stunned; he had never considered this question.
Perhaps out of a fixed mindset, he had always been certain that Divine God Beasts did not take the path of Transforming Beasts, never pondering over it before.
This was the first time.
To condense a second body as a Dragon Turtle was a major event; it was something he should consult with his clan elders before making a decision.
Su He did not rush to decide.
He contacted Uncle Toad in his mind.
“Has either a Kylin or an elder from the Phoenix Clan arrived?”
The urgent voice of the toad came through, “Not yet, Meng Xuan has gone to find Qing Cang, who will try to contact the two clans.
Qing Cang will be the main officiant for the Dragon Divine God Sacrifice this time, and only he can accomplish this.”
The specific details of the Dragon Divine God Sacrifice were confidential, and even the closely related Dragon Turtle Tribe did not quite understand it.
Su He narrowed his eyes.
Taking a deep breath, he calculated that in one more day, Qian Qianzi would probably be able to come.
With Qian Qianzi’s Tao Cultivation, breaking open the Dust Free Cover wouldn’t be difficult.
“How is Ya Ya?” Su He asked gravely.
The toad was silent for a moment, then sent a request for visual sync.
Normally, a Soul Beast could sync its vision with its master anytime and anywhere, but both Su He and the toad didn’t like this lack of privacy.
After sealing many functions, a temporary activation required mutual consent.
Su He opened his eyes, and his view had changed to that of the toad’s.
Aboard the Flying Boat, Feng Yaya’s face was ashen, her legs curled up as she sat on the deck, her body flickering with lightning.
A phantom figure of thunder and lightning manifested behind her, her origin coalescing.
From time to time, bolts of lightning were ripped away, vanishing into thin air.
Su Huanian’s face was expressionless, but his hand was placed on the flying boat’s helm, True Yuan surging out to increase the boat’s speed to its maximum.
The Camel huddled to one side, stamping its hoofs, grinding its teeth angrily, occasionally glancing around as if trying to find the thief of Feng Yaya’s origin and bite them to death.
After a moment of contemplation, Su He messaged Su Huanian, “Sister, explode lightning around Ya Ya, even if Feng Yi Ju isn’t here, his fallback must be!
Blast it out, destroy it!”
Feng Yi Ju had the means to secretly extract Feng Yaya’s origin from afar, so why didn’t he use this method earlier, and only started after trapping Su He?
There was only one possibility: a free Su He could easily find him and interrupt the extraction process.
While Su He was confident in himself, only Chaotic Edge could reveal a hidden enemy.
And since Chaotic Edge had a limited range, Feng Yi Ju’s method must be nearby!
Feng Yaya could not be harmed right now, but the young girl wasn’t afraid of thunder and lightning.
Su Huanian turned around and with a stab of her sword above Ya Ya’s head, no Sword Qi was produced; instead, she directly caused an expanse of the Thunder Pool to explode — she had not used a thunder method, but directly blasted open a Thunder Pool.
With a booming explosion, strands of lightning chaotically shot out in every direction.
The toad was caught off guard, instantly entering a state between reality and illusion.
A crescent moon appeared above Green Snake’s head, protecting her entire body.
Only the Camel was struck by a bolt of lightning turning utterly black, smoke rising from its mouth and nose, as it collapsed onto the deck.
The lightning scattered away, and in mid-air, it violently exploded, revealing a figure next to it.
On the hilt of an Immortal Sword, Feng Yi Ju was dressed as a Scholar, one hand holding a Pill Furnace the size of a watermelon, with strands of lightning within it—Feng Yaya’s origin itself.
Upon Feng Yi Ju’s appearance, he looked around and shook his head with a wry smile, “Madam, your thunder method is indeed fierce, able to break even such concealed Spell Decisions.
But why go to such lengths?”
He looked at Su Huanian, “It would have been sufficient to simply extract Ya Ya’s origin.
I knew you already had a method for her to transform into a beast.
By extracting the origin, Ya Ya could transform quickly.
But seeking me out will inevitably lead to a battle, delaying Ya Ya’s transformation for no good reason, why bother?”
Before Su Huanian could speak, the toad was already hopping mad, “You old zhang, who are you calling ‘madam’?
Who is your madam?
Shameless, ignorant, beneath the dignity of animals, you dare to compare?” It ranted while breathlessly panting.
Su He, through the toad’s vision, saw that as soon as Feng Yi Ju revealed himself, he no longer concealed himself, and his Cave World opened, with three monks coming out with palms joined together.
They each had the aura of Stepping Sky.
Su Huanian slowly drew out the Immortal Sword, facing the four, as the Sword Ring hummed incessantly.
Su He communicated via voice transmission, “Sister, do not stop the Flying Boat; proceed to Yunmeng Ze at top speed.
Block Feng Yi Ju, try to destroy the Pill Furnace, I will be there shortly.”
Inside the Dust Free Cover, Su He opened his eyes, looking at the objects laid out on the ground, hesitating no longer.
Feng Yi Ju was likely using an Avatar technique; half of him was still at the mercy of the Xuan Tian Sect Leader, and the other half was here.
He had previously opened the Cave World, and Su He had seen clearly, filled with pavilions and terraces; it wasn’t just home to three monks!
Su He’s mind moved, and the Transforming Beast formation immediately floated up, circling around him, each formation node like a star twinkling with starlight, echoing distant reflections with the orifices within Su He’s body.
The Peacock Blood Essence floated above his head.
Su He softly apologized, “Elder, Su He has broken his promise and failed to find a suitable legacy for the Elder Peacock.
Today, I must borrow the Elder’s Essence Blood to transform into a beast; I hope for your forgiveness!”
