Mortal: Fengling Linggen, married Chen Qiaoqian

Although Yan Yun's eyes were slightly closed, he had not really entered the state of cultivation.

While he was repeatedly thinking over the martial arts technique that he had not yet fully understood in his mind, he also used part of his spiritual power to monitor the movements around the spirit boat to prevent it from being suddenly attacked by the ancient beast again.

In the next few days, under the cover of the giant clouds, although the spirit boat encountered some other types of aerial birds and beasts, it passed safely.

These groups of beasts obviously do not have the ability to see through the restrictions of the Lingyun Boat like the four-winged monster bird they encountered the first time.

Finally, it was Yan Yun's turn to be on duty on the ninth day.

At noon that day, when he stood up to replace the spirit stones on the spirit boat and was about to return to the place where he had been meditating, he suddenly stopped, turned his head to look in front of the spirit boat, with a look of surprise on his face.

"How could this be? Why would something like this appear here?"

Yan Yun seemed to sense something, his face changed suddenly, and after muttering to himself, he suddenly let out a long howl.

Although the sound was not loud, it was enough to wake up the other four people who were practicing in the quiet room.

A moment later, several rays of light flew out from the boat and arrived beside Yan Yun in a few flashes.

"Why did you call me? Brother Yan, is there any danger again?"

"What on earth is this?"

As soon as the young woman and Long Dongfang appeared, they started asking questions one after another.

Xiaohong's words were full of doubts, and Longdong instantly realized something and looked surprised.

The white-browed young man and the young girl released their spiritual senses at the same time, trying to detect the movements around them.

"What is that? Is it a true spirit-level existence?"

The young man couldn't help but blurt out.

Although the girl in white robe didn't say anything, her eyes revealed fear.

At this moment, Yan Yun has regained his composure under his divine sense.

A huge black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky hundreds of miles away, almost covering half of the sky and suspended in the air.

Dark clouds rolled around the black shadow, thunder and lightning flashed and roared, and under the dark clouds, countless gray hurricanes rose from the ground, like giant pillars connecting heaven and earth.

Occasionally, a small body covered with gray scales would appear from the clouds, making people marvel at its huge size, but it was impossible to determine its true identity.

From a distance, you can see that the black shadow is round.

Such a huge body and amazing aura seem to be very similar to those legendary true spirit-level beings that are as big as mountains.

Everyone in the jade boat witnessed the strange scene coming from the distant sky, and their faces suddenly changed.

At this moment, a strange roar like a bull's roar came from the distant sky, followed by a loud rumbling sound, as if countless thunders exploded in the distance.

Despite the distance, the thunder was still clearly audible and continuous.

"This is not a true spirit, but the ancient beast 'Thunder Turtle'."

When the girl in white heard the strange roar, her expression relaxed a little, she took a long breath and explained:
"This turtle is said to be one of the largest species among the ancient beasts of the wilderness. It usually just absorbs lightning in the air through its body and will not actively attack other creatures."

Of course, if you really provoke it, its power is also extremely terrifying, and you need at least a cultivator in the Fusion Stage to confront it head-on."

"Thunder Turtle? Is it the ancient beast that was born from thunder in the legend?"

When the young woman in the black dress heard that it was not a real spirit, she breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed in amazement:

"I heard that as long as this giant is supplied with lightning, its body can expand infinitely. It is an extremely magical beast of heaven and earth."

"It is said that the giant turtle 'Xiangling' in the Xuanwu realm of the human race that has the power to support a city may be a thunder turtle."

"Although this one in front of me is not small, it is dwarfed by it."

No one has a consensus on whether the spirit is a thunder turtle.

If this is true, the Thunder Turtle we see before our eyes is not even one-tenth the size of the Giant Tortoise.

However, even so, such strange beasts should not be underestimated. Once angered, one's life may be in danger. Therefore, avoiding this beast is the best strategy, Long Dong couldn't help but smile and said.

This makes sense, and this opportunity is truly rare.

The Thunder Turtle has always been hiding underground and rarely appears on the surface. It is difficult for ordinary people to see its true appearance. If it surfaces on the surface, there must be something unusual.

Xiao Hong nodded at first, but then she seemed to remember something, her face suddenly turned pale, and she shouted in panic: "There may be a thunderstorm here, Brother Long, please drive the spirit boat away quickly!"

When they heard the word "thunderstorm", everyone's expression changed, and Yan Yun was no exception.

Long Dong's face turned pale, and his figure flashed. The place was empty and in a flash he appeared on the bow of the ship more than ten feet away.

He flipped his hand and a token-shaped magic weapon appeared in his hand.

Above a sea of ​​clouds, she rubbed the token with her hands, and the surrounding white clouds instantly disappeared.

Then, the spirit boat suddenly stopped and changed direction, its speed increased greatly, and it turned into a long white rainbow that rushed straight into the sky.

However, before they had flown for dozens of miles, a layer of blue light suddenly appeared in the sky. This light spread rapidly as if stimulated, and its speed was shocking.

In just a few breaths, everyone could clearly see a blue light appearing in the distant sky, accompanied by a loud rumbling sound and countless flashes of lightning, as if countless demons were rushing towards them with bared fangs and claws.

"I've heard that when the Thunder Turtle appears, there will be a thunderstorm following. It seems the rumor is true."

Seeing this scene, the young man with the blood mole couldn't help but gasp and shouted loudly for his fellow Taoists to help.

In fact, there was no need for him to remind them, as the white-browed young man, the young woman and others had already noticed the approaching blue light and their faces were extremely solemn.

Almost at the same time, the two of them quickly made hand gestures and cast spells. Dazzling spiritual lights of various colors emerged from their bodies, flowing unsteadily and converging on the jade boat under their feet.

Yan Yun and the girl in white robe moved quickly and immediately performed the same action.

Five streams of spiritual power were simultaneously poured into the Lingyun Boat.

With everyone's combined strength, the power was far greater than before. The boat emitted a low humming sound, and then suddenly shook violently, and the scene outside suddenly became blurred.

The spirit boat turned into a stream of light at high speed, and in just a few flashes it disappeared from one end of the sky to the other.

However, even at this speed, the blue line behind was also as fast as before, chasing closely. Long Dong and the others were shocked, knowing that the rumored thunderstorm was indeed well-deserved.

Fortunately, several people joined forces to maximize the speed of the Lingyun Boat.

If it were an ordinary divine cultivator with poor escape speed, he would probably have difficulty escaping this disaster.

Yan Yun and others are not comparable to ordinary godsend cultivators. Each of them has a secret technique to preserve their lives, and even if they use the secret escape technique alone, they are not necessarily slower than the Lingyun Boat.

However, the consequences of doing so are serious, and severe damage to your vitality or loss of essence and blood are inevitable sequelae.

In this wild and dangerous place, any risky behavior is daunting. This time, Yan Yun and others drove the Lingyun Boat, worked together, and drove the Lingzhou tens of thousands of miles away.

When the blue light behind them disappeared and the thunder gradually became inaudible, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to gather their spiritual power and slow down the speed of the spirit boat.

"It was really thrilling,"

Long Dong regained his composure, smiled at Fairy Xiao, and said gratefully:
"Thanks to Fairy Xiao's quick reaction, otherwise if we had hesitated for a moment, we would have been caught in the thunderstorm. Even if we didn't die, we would have found it difficult to escape unscathed."

"I am lucky. Although the Thunder Turtle is famous, few people outside know its habits."

"There was an elder in my clan who killed a thunder turtle all by himself, so he knows a thing or two."

"Thunder turtles usually hide underground and don't show up easily. Only when they sense that a thunderstorm is about to break out will they surface to absorb the power of thunder and lightning."

"An adult thunder turtle contains two magical beads in its body. One can attract thunder, and the other can avoid it. Its effect is extraordinary. It is said that even if a person who does not have thunder spiritual roots obtains this bead, he can easily control the power of thunder and lightning."

"That senior only killed a young turtle and failed to obtain the two rare pearls."

"However, the shell of the Thunder Turtle contains powerful lightning power, and is an excellent material for refining thunder-attributed treasures. If a cultivator with great magical powers encounters this turtle, he will probably be ecstatic."

Xiaohong smiled bitterly.

"That senior from the nobility was able to hunt down such a rare beast by himself. He must be an elder of the nobility."

“But for us who have reached the state of God Transformation, this is simply a daydream. We are lucky to have escaped this time.”

The white-browed young man grinned when he heard this, as if he was still frightened by the encounter with the thunder turtle and the thunderstorm.

In the depths of the wild world, the existence of the Thunder Turtle is like an insurmountable chasm.

Although it is full of treasures, any attempt to approach it will be futile without the cultivation level above the fusion level.

Whenever a thunderstorm ends, this mysterious creature dives underground again and disappears without a trace.

There was a hint of helplessness and heaviness in Longdong's words, and everyone was deeply worried about this.

Just over ten days after entering this unknown world, they encountered a deadly beast - the Thunder Turtle.

This experience made everyone alert, and the originally relaxed mood became extremely depressed.

After this thrilling incident, everyone lost interest in continuing the conversation and returned to their own homes to rest.

Yan Yun had no intention of leaving immediately.

He stood there, looking deeply in the direction of what had just happened, as if he was thinking about something important.

It was not until a long time later that he sighed softly, slowly walked to the highest point of the jade boat, and sat down cross-legged again.

At this moment, his heart was filled with anticipation and anxiety about an unknown journey.

Yan Yun and others drove the spirit boat, intending to get away from the thunderstorm area, but they did not expect that the thunder turtle in the depths of the dark clouds suddenly sank and dispersed the clouds, revealing its true face.

Its body is as big as a mountain, and its shell is dark grey with a faint metallic sheen, appearing extremely smooth.

What is even more surprising is that only the limbs of this turtle are exposed, with no head or tail, as if it has completely retracted into its shell.

As the thunderstorm broke out, the entire sky was shrouded in blue light, and countless blue arcs of varying sizes poured down from the sky like raindrops.

It struck the ground with tremendous force, and the sound of thunder completely drowned out all other sounds between heaven and earth.

Although the Thunder Turtle had a huge body and had to endure attacks from countless electric arcs, once all the electric arcs came into contact with its body, they disappeared without a trace like a drop in the ocean.

In the midst of a raging thunderstorm, a strange turtle attracted countless eyes.

Its body surface flickered with white light, as if it possessed a mysterious power that attracted the scattered electric arcs nearby to its back as if attracted by an invisible magnet.

What is amazing is that this small half of the electric arc was forcibly absorbed into the turtle's body, and its limbs moved slowly, making it look very comfortable in this violent thunderstorm.

At this moment, the giant turtle suddenly stopped its limbs and quickly retracted into its shell.

At the same time, the nearby space suddenly fluctuated, and a colorful light shot out from the void. After the light converged, a huge bone bird emitting colorful light all over its body appeared.

Although this bone bird is only a dozen feet in size, the aura it exudes is in no way inferior to that of the giant turtle that absorbs lightning.

What was even more shocking was that there were two human figures standing on top of the bone bird.

One of them was two meters tall, with black light flashing all around him; the other was of ordinary build, but was wrapped in a light green cloud, and the true faces of both of them could not be seen clearly.

"Not bad."

One of the figures stared at the giant turtle and said:

"I didn't expect to encounter such excellent prey just after being teleported here. I am planning to refine the Ten-Headed Troll, but I am still short of some materials. This Thunder Turtle can be used to some extent."

A battle for the rare treasures in the body of the Thunder Turtle quietly unfolds.

Brother Xuanwu, who killed the Thunder Turtle by himself, proposed to take away its most precious Thunder Pearl. The figure in the green air was dissatisfied with this and thought that Brother Xuanwu was too selfish.

However, Brother Xuanwu had other intentions. He planned to use the arm bone of the Qilin True Spirit as an exchange to obtain the two thunder beads.

It turned out that his mount was the Thunder Turtle, and these two thunder beads could nourish it and prolong its lifespan, which was undoubtedly a great help to the human race.

Since Brother Xuanwu is indeed of great use, I will naturally not do such a bad thing.

The matter has been settled, but we must speed up our actions and not delay the important matter.

Our trip this time is not to collect rare treasures, but to shoulder a more important mission.

We must eliminate the alien strongholds near Tianyuan City one by one. The figure in the green air pondered for a long time before reluctantly agreeing.

"Haha, it won't delay the important matter. With the two of us working together, plus your puppet made from the remains of the ancient colorful phoenix, how long will it take to kill a newly-adult thunder turtle?"

The tall figure laughed wildly, then moved his body, flew directly into the air, clenched his fists, and rushed into the thunderstorm.

A moment later, a deafening roar suddenly came from the thunderstorm, followed by an equally terrifying roar of a beast.

The other figure in the green air standing on the Bone Phoenix sighed softly and shook his head slightly, seeming helpless about his companion's hot temper.

But he immediately made a seal with his hands, and the bone phoenix under his feet suddenly grew in size, becoming over a hundred feet long in the blink of an eye.

Urged by the figure above its head, the Bone Phoenix also dived into the thunderstorm area.

Suddenly, the roar of the beast in the blue electric light in the distance became more and more frightened and angry, and even mixed with a bit of fearful wails.

Yan Yun and others drove the Lingyun Boat and kept on traveling.

In the following month or so, although Lingyunzhou was fast and had a high level of illusion, it still encountered danger frequently. (End of this chapter)
