Chapter 98: Lava Black Tortoise

~8 min read 1,483 words

After the giant monster rushed up, it seemed to have entered a berserk state, attacking all living things indiscriminately.

That rock-like body was not only full of destructive power, but it was also very fast.

It only had the outline of a turtle; in fact, it had nothing to do with the turtles people knew.

It was characterized by being big, fierce, and fast.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Its four legs ran wildly on the ground, crazily charging at the martial artists present.

What was even more terrifying was that the giant monster could actually spew fire from its mouth.

"What kind of monster is this? It's too strong, right?"

"Be careful, don't get touched by its flames."

"So terrifying, even a Saint Realm expert has to avoid its edge..."

"This appearance, I remember now, it's the legendary Lava Black Tortoise! It is said that this beast lives by absorbing heat essence and mostly sleeps underground."

"Does this kind of beast really exist?"

"Don't dwell on what it is, let's run quickly; whoever is slow will be a meat shield."

"We've all run away, what about the Heart of Flame?"

"Are we just going to give up like this?"

"How about this, everyone cooperate; there are so many of us, why not kill it first!"

"Right, kill this Lava Black Tortoise first, then discuss how to distribute the spoils!"

Soon, someone proposed a cooperation suggestion.

Although the Lava Black Tortoise was strong, it was only one.

There were martial artists from various factions on the scene, and there was no shortage of Kings and Half-Saints, plus Ye Gucheng.

If everyone worked together, they could wear this beast to death even if they just exhausted it.

This proposal appeared and immediately received a lot of support.

After all, having waited so long, who wanted to give up the Heart of Flame easily?

Ye Gucheng took the lead and shouted:

"Since everyone is willing to fight together, I am willing to temporarily act as the commander..."

"No problem."

"Senior Ye is the strongest among us, we all obey."

"I agree too!"

"Kill the Black Tortoise, seize the treasure!"

The crowd said in unison.

However, this result was not something Yang Yu was happy to see.

For him, it would be best if the Lava Black Tortoise scared everyone away.

That way, it would be convenient for him to go underwater and obtain the Heart of Flame.

But if everyone stayed to fight the giant monster, it would be difficult for Yang Yu to fish in troubled waters.

However, Yang Yu then realized that he had overestimated people's unity and courage.

So many martial artists were talking about cooperative fighting.

But everyone was afraid of death and wanted to hide in the back, unwilling to risk their lives.

Moreover, everyone had reservations and would not use their full strength.

Everyone was thinking that after killing the Black Tortoise, they would still need to save some strength to fight for the treasure...

To put it bluntly, everyone was slacking off.

In the end, this verbal agreement of cooperation did not cause any substantial damage to the Black Tortoise at all.

Instead, it further enraged the Black Tortoise!

"Hiss, hiss, hiss... roar, roar, roar..."

The Lava Black Tortoise let out a dull low moan that echoed endlessly in the valley.

Immediately after, strange movements came from around the valley, and the ground rumbled.

A large number of strange-looking beasts appeared from all directions and rushed into the valley.

"What's the situation?"

"So many beasts!"

"This Lava Black Tortoise is the lord of the area and can summon other beasts!"

"A lord? We actually encountered one..."

"This is a big mess."

The crowd was shocked.

The Lava Black Tortoise was actually a lord, and one roar could summon a large number of beast minions.

Although the strength of the minions was uneven, their numbers were extremely large.

In just a blink of an eye, hundreds of beasts had arrived.

And the number was still increasing...

These beast minions were like obedient and brave soldiers, attacking humans crazily as soon as they entered.

Originally, thousands of martial artists could still hold their own against one Lava Black Tortoise.

Now that an army of beasts had emerged, everyone was completely panicked and lost their will to fight instantly.

"Fight my ass!"

"Run!"

No one mentioned cooperation anymore, they just wanted to escape.

However, it was a bit late to run now.

Just now, there was only one Lava Black Tortoise, so everyone could disperse.

Even if the Lava Black Tortoise chased, it could only chase in one direction, and others had a great chance of escaping.

But now there were beasts everywhere.

There was no safe place; no matter where they ran, they would be attacked and hunted by beasts.

Many martial artists with low cultivation were pounced on and torn apart by beasts just as they tried to escape...

"Let's retreat too; the Heart of Flame is guarded by the Lava Black Tortoise, no one can get it."

In the chaotic battle, Su Yuechan said to her companions.

Yang Yu said: "Now that humans and beasts are in a great war, it is our opportunity."

"In this situation, you are still thinking about the Heart of Flame?" Su Yuechan felt it was unbelievable.

Yang Yu said solemnly:

"I am confident, no time to explain... We will act separately. I will dive to the bottom of the water to get the treasure. Brother Shao, you go to the northeast direction to summon the Swift Wind Eagle in advance and prepare to meet us."

"No problem." Shao An nodded.

Although he hadn't known Yang Yu for long, he subconsciously wanted to believe in Yang Yu.

Yang Yu took out another crystal-core-like object and said:

"Junior Sister is an alchemist, your task is the most critical. This is a beast core dug from the Red-Eyed Giant Ape. You go to the south of the valley later, find a position, detonate the beast core directly, and control the color of the flames to be as close to the color of the Heart of Flame as possible, no problem?"

Li Xiangwan: "No problem."

"Then what about me?" Su Yuechan looked expectant.

Yang Yu: "Your strength is the highest, go with Junior Sister. After she detonates the beast core, she is very likely to be targeted."

"Okay." Su Yuechan said seriously.

Yang Yu finally said: "I'm going, everyone wait for me!"

After saying that, he jumped into the pool water.

…………

Because the scene was in a mess, some martial artists had already jumped into the water in a panic, wanting to hide in the water to avoid being hunted by beasts.

But it was no different from covering one's ears while stealing a bell.

Beasts could also jump into the water, and many were proficient in water.

They hid in the shallow water area, which was not enough to protect themselves, and instead, they were more easily targeted.

And in the deep water area, the temperature was too high, and they couldn't dive down.

Those martial artists who jumped into the water would die even faster.

Therefore, Yang Yu's actions did not attract much attention.

He was just one of many ordinary divers.

…………

The moment he hit the water, Yang Yu realized that the temperature had increased quite a bit.

It was probably because the Black Tortoise appeared, turning the bottom of the pool upside down and erupting with manic heat.

But this was not a problem.

Yang Yu directly activated the "Perfect Isolation" entry.

Immediately, the surrounding heat vanished, and his body felt as if it were in an ordinary swimming pool.

"It really works!"

Yang Yu was overjoyed and quickly dove down.

【Host is using a time-limited entry, effect countdown, 1 hour 59 minutes 59 seconds...】

At the same time, the system also gave a prompt.

Two hours was two hours; the system interface mostly used Earth's time units.

While diving, pools of blood would appear around Yang Yu from time to time; they were all martial artists killed by beasts.

Yang Yu was also guarding against sneak attacks by beasts.

Just at this time, a green light flashed in the water; it was a Xuanqi palm print.

Bang!

The palm print attacked from the water surface, striking straight at Yang Yu.

Yang Yu's figure retreated violently, dodging the palm in the water.

Fortunately, he had broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm; if he were still in the Hua Xuan Realm, he would probably have been finished.

It was just that Yang Yu didn't expect that during this beast-human melee, someone would attack him...

"Hmph, this kid has good skills, actually able to dodge my Green Injury Splitting Sky Palm."

More than a dozen figures had already surrounded Yang Yu.

"Who are you?"

Yang Yu frowned. ===== CHAPTER 99 =====
