Chapter 294: Chapter 294: The Demon Turtle Advances Slowly!
"Master, that Demon Turtle is still very far from us!"
Just as Lu Chen hesitated, the Artifact Spirit of the Mysterious Iron Spear suddenly spoke.
"How do you know?"
Lu Chen was startled and quickly asked.
"Master, I can feel the array formation," the Artifact Spirit said with a laugh, "Have you forgotten? Though that Demon Turtle has transformed into a demon beast, at its core, it is still the Earth Element’s missing array formation!"
Lu Chen had a sudden realization and planted the Mysterious Iron Spear into the sandy soil, saying, "Then I shall begin the conversion of Spiritual Power. If you sense the Demon Turtle approaching, remind me immediately!"
"Rest assured, master, I will keep watch!"
With the assurance from the Artifact Spirit, Lu Chen sat down cross-legged, took out the Pure Jade Vial, extended one hand into it, and began to practice the Heaven-Breaking Spiritual Method.
In the air, it wasn’t just the overwhelming Earth Spirit Power that was being absorbed, but three other types of Spiritual Power were constantly sucked in, rapidly converting into Earth Spirit Power once inside his body.
The conversion of Spiritual Power was as clear as the Dao platform shaped like a long spear.
Lu Chen, however, wasn’t paying attention to this. His focus was entirely on his own hand.
After the Spiritual Power converted, it would pass through his hand and be transformed by him into Wood Spirit Liquid, drip by drip into the Pure Jade Vial!
"While there’s time, I should store up more. Who knows what else I will encounter in the Abyss?"
Lu Chen muttered to himself, not daring to stop even for a moment.
Within this imbalance of the Five Elements’ array, he had already encountered two who were at the Core Formation Stage—how could he guarantee he wouldn’t meet more in the Abyss?
Just as Lu Chen was frantically absorbing Spiritual Power, the Demon Turtle also noticed the changes in the Earth Spirit Power within its domain.
"Rawr—"
It stuck its head out of the palace, angrily roaring in Lu Chen’s direction.
It wasn’t that it knew where Lu Chen was, but it could sense that the Spiritual Power on its side was flowing toward the other side at an astonishingly fast rate!
One could imagine, someone was contending with it for the Earth Spirit Power!
It had not easily reconstructed its demon body from its turtle shell and needed an enormous amount of Spiritual Power for a full recovery!
True, it could now move freely, but the problem was the tremendous amount of Spiritual Power needed to break the array!
In its eyes, filled with resentment, the massive body of the turtle crawled out of the palace!
After devouring innumerable flesh and blood, its body was fully formed. Though it had not returned to its peak condition, at this moment it was far beyond what Lu Chen could handle!
"Rawr—"
The Demon Turtle growled lowly, crawling towards Lu Chen. With every part of ground it crossed, the sand grains would rapidly transform into Earth Spirit Power and be absorbed by it, turning into Earth Demonic Power to solidify its demon body!
If it weren’t for someone contending for the Earth Spirit Power in this unbalanced array, it would have recovered faster staying in the palace!
However, having devoured that Sword Cultivator as well as numerous cultivators, obtaining their intelligence in the process, the Demon Turtle knew that the most apt course of action was to resolve this issue!
Otherwise, it would face the dilemma of being unable to extricate itself from this unbalanced Earth Array due to lack of power!
But to avoid alerting Lu Chen and to lessen the consumption of its own Demonic Power, the Demon Turtle crawled very, very slowly.
Its body was too large. Any faster, and the vibrations would be exceedingly strong!
It wasn’t afraid of being unable to defeat Lu Chen.
It was afraid that Lu Chen would escape!
The ability to induce such anomalies in the Earth Spirit Power within the array indicated that consuming such a person would greatly benefit its own physical recovery!
For this reason, the Demon Turtle inched closer to Lu Chen!
At the same time, Lu Chen was madly converting Spiritual Liquid. Although it was slow going for the Pure Jade Vial, adhering to the idea that more was better, Lu Chen did not stop for an instant.
Until.
A day and night passed, and the Artifact Spirit suddenly awoke Lu Chen!
"Master, the Demon Turtle is only a hundred miles away from us now! And... it seems to be heading this way!"
Lu Chen immediately stopped converting Spiritual Power, placed the Pure Jade Vial to the side, where the Artifact Spirit informed him that he had only converted about thirty percent, far from being full.
Lu Chen nodded to show he understood and turned to ask the Spear Spirit, "Are you sure it’s headed this way?"
"Positive!"
Upon hearing the Spear Spirit’s affirmative answer, Lu Chen’s expression grew sharp and he asked, "You said you could sense its presence, but can it... sense your presence?"
