Chapter 337: Defeating the Emerald Turtle's Clone

The only creature capable of making the slow-moving Water Rabbit rush out so impatiently is likely the Emerald Turtle.

The Water Rabbit needs the Purification liquid on the Emerald Turtle's body to help itself improve.

Its body can analyze the Purification liquid and distill a low-spec version of it; this is the Water Rabbit's ability—extracting the properties of water to amplify itself.

Ye Bai waved his hand, and the entire pool of honey was stored into his Bracelet.

After seeing the honey disappear, the Demon Bear wore a dejected expression.

Before it could recover, the Life Rose used its thorns to bind it directly, then rushed out of the beehive.

"Slow down, slow down, watch my face!" In the distance, a giant object was slowly walking in this direction.

Its body was covered in moss, with a physique like a small hill.

The Emerald Turtle radiated a green light, crystal clear like a gemstone.

At this moment, the Emerald Turtle was swaying toward the vicinity of the beehive; it seemed to have been attracted by the Killer Bee hive.

The Emerald Turtle just loves to eat strange and exotic things.

It is said that the Purification liquid is like monkey wine, brewed by the Emerald Turtle through the consumption of various strange and exotic things.

Moreover, the Purification liquid tastes very good, somewhat like frozen wine—crisp and pure—and importantly, it can also eliminate cellular toxins within one's body and remove negative status effects.

Therefore, the Purification liquid has also been hyped up to an astronomical price that makes people sigh in despair.

However, the Emerald Turtle usually lives in inaccessible places, and its Earth Escape technique is extraordinary; even in the Pet Beast Guild, the task of finding the Purification liquid hangs high, but very few people accept it.

It is truly because the Emerald Turtle is elusive, and its tracks are impossible to find.

The time spent just looking for the Emerald Turtle is enough to complete tasks of equal value.

【Evaluation: The Emerald Turtle is a Pet Beast with a very good temperament. Once provoked, it will transform into a Ruby Turtle and master attack skills. Legend has it that there is an even rarer Sapphire form, which the Emerald Turtle only reveals in times of crisis.】

Damn, the Emerald Turtle can even transform into a Ruby Turtle? Is this the Emerald Turtle's combat form? This is my first time hearing of this.

If I can research this, I will be the brightest star in the scientific research world.

Ye Bai thought for a moment and secretly made up his mind to study the Emerald Turtle and find a way to take it away.

If that's the case, this Emerald Turtle really cannot fall into the hands of the Zuoweihui.

Otherwise, Ye Bai knows without even thinking that the Emerald Turtle would definitely be used for experiments.

The cameras nearby had just been cleared away by the Demon Bear 'inadvertently'.

Therefore, the Emerald Turtle should not have been exposed.

A breeze blew by, causing the beehive to sway faintly.

The Emerald Turtle opened its mouth, crunching and devouring the beehive.

It ate very quickly, its teeth like a crusher.

The beehive was swallowed by the Emerald Turtle at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Soon, the Emerald Turtle showed a satisfied expression.

Just as it was about to leave, the Water Rabbit blocked the Emerald Turtle's path.

Emerald Turtle?

Little brother, do you have something you need? The Water Rabbit looked stubbornly at the lush green pool on the Emerald Turtle's back.

The Emerald Turtle immediately understood the Water Rabbit's intention.

The Water Rabbit wanted the Purification liquid on the Emerald Turtle's body.

This kind of Purification liquid was a treasure that the Emerald Turtle had spent a long time gathering, collecting the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of various treasures to finally coalesce.

Little brother, if you want to obtain my Purification liquid, I have assessment requirements.

Only after you pass my assessment will I let you take this Purification liquid.

The Emerald Turtle communicated with the Water Rabbit in a leisurely manner.

The Water Rabbit nodded, indicating that it understood and was an Exotic Beast that knew the rules.

The aura on the Emerald Turtle's body suddenly changed, and a pressure like a mountain emerged from it.

The terrifying pressure was further forcing the Emerald Turtle's body to undergo a transformation.

The lush green on its body turned into a bright red like a ruby, emitting a color like blood.

At the same time, a gemstone fell off its body and landed heavily on the ground.

Then this gemstone moved, and the Emerald Turtle returned to its original appearance.

Ye Bai looked closely and saw that this was actually a miniature version of a Ruby Turtle.

【Name: Ruby Turtle (Clone)】

【Gender: Agender】

【Attribute: Holy/Fire】

【Level: Second Order, Level 5】

【Skills: Iron Wall (Proficient): Enhances one's own defensive capabilities.

Great Earthquake (Proficient): Uses a super Great Earthquake against the ground.

Violent Flame (Mastery): Spits a pillar of flame from the mouth to attack the opponent.

Explosive Stone (Proficient): Spits a large amount of flammable and explosive stones from the mouth to attack the opponent.

Burrowing (Proficient): Burrows into the ground to evade enemy attacks.

Yanxituji (Proficient): Summons a large number of stone spikes to attack the opponent.】

【Evolution Route 1: None for now.】

【Evaluation: The Ruby Turtle is an Exotic Beast with a particularly irritable temperament. Its strength is very high, and it is basically invincible among those of the same rank.】

So that's how it is; the Emerald Turtle detached an individual, and it is using this individual to fight the Water Rabbit to determine whether the Water Rabbit truly has the ability to accept its Purification liquid.

After all, the Purification liquid does not merely possess an aura that purifies various negative energies; it also contains extremely terrifying and violent energy.

That is why the Emerald Turtle requires the Water Rabbit to undergo a test.

Only a Water Rabbit that passes the test can ultimately withstand this Purification liquid.

The Emerald Turtle also simultaneously sees that the Water Rabbit is precisely trying to be reborn through the Purification liquid.

The Emerald Turtle has lived long enough and is a famous wise man among Exotic Beasts; many powerful Exotic Beasts seek out the Emerald Turtle to communicate and exchange ideas.

Especially with the Emerald Turtle's perception of the weather, it is equivalent to a mobile weather forecast.

If a strong wind approaches, wisps of white smoke will appear on the Emerald Turtle's body.

If there is rain, the white smoke becomes like water mist.

Now, streaks of water mist have appeared on the Emerald Turtle's body, and the mist is constantly increasing, which means a heavy rainstorm is coming.

That Storm Dragon should have started to take action.

Hopefully, there won't be too big of an accident.

After all, the Storm Dragon is a Four Cardinal Virtues who holds the title of Storm Monarch.

Not a single one of the giant beasts under its command is simple.

The Storm Dragon may have stirred up a Hurricane natural disaster, equivalent to a Ninth Rank Beast Tide.

The Eight Great Kings of the Beautiful Country will definitely be in great pain.

Ye Bai feels that the best method is to escape early, and then take advantage of this time to fish in troubled waters and break into the underwater Laboratory of Xinyue Daxue.

The impact of the Hurricane natural disaster on the underwater Laboratory is minimal. If only it could gain the favor of that Siren.

The basketball-sized Ruby Turtle and the Water Rabbit are looking at each other from a distance.

Ye Bai can even feel that crackling electric current, emitting bursts of explosive sounds through the air.

The Water Rabbit spreads its hands and makes a pistol gesture.

Streams of water wrap around the Water Rabbit's fingertips, and two rapid currents of water shoot out, blasting toward the Ruby Turtle.

The water currents are both swift and fast, with power comparable to a full-force strike from a Second Order Peak Exotic Beast.

But the Emerald Turtle remains indifferent.

Little one, if you only have this much ability, you cannot pass my assessment.

A flash of sharp light passes through the Emerald Turtle's eyes.

The Ruby Turtle disappears from its spot in an instant; just at this moment, the two water currents hit the position where the Ruby Turtle was originally standing, and two unfathomably deep holes appear.

This is the Burrowing skill used by the Ruby Turtle.

The detached Clone of the Emerald Turtle has one biggest difference from other Pet Beasts, which is that the Clone inherits the skill proficiency of the main body.

The Ruby Turtle is equivalent to an Exotic Beast possessing nearly max-level skills, and if the Water Rabbit cannot discover the Ruby Turtle's flaw, it cannot hit it.

In this way, the Water Rabbit will be exhausted from dealing with it and gradually consume its own physical strength.

Just at this moment, the Ruby Turtle suddenly appears behind the Water Rabbit.

It suddenly spits a scorching fireball from its mouth.

The Water Rabbit's figure flashes, transforming into a large amount of water and disappearing from its spot.

By the time it takes shape again, Ye Bai can clearly feel that the Water Rabbit is quite exhausted at this moment.

Although the Water Rabbit can continuously evade attacks through this liquefaction method.

Passive evasion will also consume a portion of the Water Rabbit's physical strength.

In the long run, the Water Rabbit will inevitably be defeated.

"Water Rabbit!"

"Do you trust me?"

"If possible, I hope to command you in battle."

"How about it?"

"I possess very rich battle experience."

After hearing Ye Bai's words, the Water Rabbit thinks rapidly with its little brain while dodging the Ruby Turtle's attacks.

It once heard other Pet Beasts mention that having a Pet Beast Master versus not having one is simply the difference between heaven and earth.

The Water Rabbit feels that it is quite strenuous to fight the Ruby Turtle, and it really needs a Pet Beast Master to provide guidance.

But doing so would also mean owing Ye Bai a favor.

One must know that favor debts are the hardest to repay.

The Water Rabbit continues to use the liquefaction skill to evade the attacks.

As time passes, it becomes increasingly strenuous.

Ultimately, the Water Rabbit still nods; it really needs the Purification liquid.

It truly discovered that a Pet Beast without a Pet Beast Master and one with a Pet Beast Master are simply worlds apart.

The role of a Pet Beast Master lies in helping their Pet Beasts observe everything from all directions.

Only in this way can they command their Pet Beasts to unleash the most powerful combat strength.

"Water Rabbit, watch your back, use the Water Transformation skill, and be careful not to Charge head-on into the fireball, so as to avoid a portion of your liquid being converted into steam by the fireball."

Ye Bai had observed that although the Water Rabbit could use the liquefaction skill, every time the Water Rabbit evaporated some of the water on its body, its body would become a little smaller.

This would severely deplete the Water Rabbit's combat strength.

"Water Rabbit, use Rain Dance to help replenish your moisture."

A deep blue radiance emanated from the Water Rabbit's body.

A small dark cloud instantly appeared in the sky, the wind blew with a whistling sound, causing the surrounding leaves to rustle.

The leaves were dancing in an endless cycle.

Not long after, a light drizzle fell from the sky.

However, the Ruby Turtle seemed unaffected and instead continued to shuttle back and forth on the ground at will.

Because its speed was very fast, the Water Rabbit, unable to capture the Ruby Turtle's movement trajectory, began to grow anxious.

At this moment, Ye Bai spoke up to comfort the Water Rabbit.

"Don't be anxious, don't panic, bring out the momentum you had before."

"What is yours is always yours, and what is not yours is not yours."

"Water Rabbit, close your eyes; you are the darling of water, and the water will help you."

"You must treat the rainwater as your own eyes."

The Water Rabbit nodded.

It slowly closed its eyes, feeling every little bit of its surroundings.

The rainwater seemed to have turned into its own tentacles, helping it perceive the Ruby Turtle's movement trajectory.

It discovered the Ruby Turtle's movement pattern.

Gradually, the Water Rabbit was even able to predict where the Ruby Turtle would appear.

"Very good, Water Rabbit, you must have sensed the Ruby Turtle's movement trajectory."

"Calculate where the Ruby Turtle will appear in the next second, and use the Water Gun with maximum power."

Ye Bai encouraged the Water Rabbit.

The Water Rabbit raised its hands, forming them into the shape of a pistol.

Streams of water were gathering and compressing on the Water Rabbit's hands.

Until it could no longer be compressed, the Water Rabbit fired two Water Guns in one direction with a bang-bang.

As soon as the Ruby Turtle appeared, it was blasted into the air by two high-pressure water bullets.

The speed was so fast that even the Ruby Turtle did not react in time.

The Water Rabbit continued to strafe without stopping, ensuring that the Ruby Turtle could not make contact with the ground.

The Burrowing skill must be performed with feet on the ground to be activated.

The Ruby Turtle's shell was forcibly shattered by the high-pressure water bullets.

And the Ruby Turtle floating in the air naturally suffered defeat just like that.

Its body was pierced through by the high-pressure Water Gun and turned into a large amount of stone scattered all over the ground.

Just at this moment, a drop of Purification liquid floated out from the Ruby Turtle's body, suspended in mid-air, emitting a colorful radiance.

This was the Emerald Turtle's reward for the Water Rabbit.

The Water Rabbit's pupils reflected the colorful radiance, and it couldn't help but walk up to it.

When its hands came into contact with the Purification liquid, a seven-colored glazed light emanated from the Water Rabbit's body.

Its body cells were analyzing the Purification liquid.

The Water Rabbit's body structure is very peculiar; its cells can extract the properties of water.

After analyzing the Purification liquid, the Water Rabbit would be able to permanently remove negative status effects.

The Emerald Turtle looked at the Water Rabbit with great gratification, and its body suddenly disappeared.

Ye Bai gave a bitter smile; he had originally wanted to discuss with the Emerald Turtle about it coming back with him.

As it turned out, the Emerald Turtle seemed to have sensed Ye Bai's intentions and directly used Burrowing to sneak away.

"Forget it, forget it. Anyway, I already know the coordinates of this vicinity; if it really doesn't work out, I'll just come back again."

"At that time, I'll just have the Space Pelican leave a spatial imprint."

Ye Bai's Space Pelican was also nearing the time for an advancement.

Two chapters tomorrow.
