"So, what's our next step?"
Although Kamesawa had a friendly expression, Qin Ming still felt a little awkward.
He stood before the empty trench, his gaze sweeping over the spot where the whirlpool had once been; now it was eerily calm, without even a ripple.
"Wait." Kamesawa's voice was calm and confident, carrying a sense of "everything is under control."
He slowly curled up in the water, his body sinking slightly, as if trying to find a comfortable position for himself.
Then he squinted slightly, gazing into the distance, as if waiting for someone.
In that short period of time, Kamesawa had already sorted out his thoughts.
Such a commotion will soon be noticed by other turtles in the clan. When that happens, whether it's the Grand Elder or the Ancestor, there will always be a reliable source among the large turtles to investigate.
Although the original fast lane is gone, they can take advantage of this opportunity!
Not only is it faster than before, but it also saves you the trouble of traveling on your own!
Kamezu thought to himself with pleasure, the tip of his tail swaying slightly unconsciously.
If it weren't for the fact that the vortex spirit couldn't be moved under normal circumstances, this would be a truly convenient passage.
Qin Ming remained silent under the approving gaze of the chubby boy, who exclaimed, "You can do that too? I've really learned something!"
The next second, a spatial rift was torn open. The rift came without warning. One moment the seawater was flowing calmly, and the next moment space was as if it had been torn open from the inside by an invisible giant hand, revealing a pitch-black crack with dark golden edges.
The crack rapidly widened, transforming from a thin line into a passage wide enough for the giant tortoise to pass through, and a deep and vast aura surged out from the crack.
"Who did this! Step forward!" The figure hadn't stopped, but the momentum was already there.
The voice was as deep and heavy as the ocean, seemingly able to penetrate all barriers and reach the depths of the soul.
It wasn't human language, but Qin Ming inexplicably understood it.
His body swayed slightly, because the power contained in the voice was too great. Even though it wasn't directed at him, the aftershock made him feel a chill.
Before they could even worry, Kamesawa had already stepped forward and blocked all the remaining force of the attack.
"It's Elder Guiyuan, our father!" Guize said in a relaxed and cheerful tone, turning his big head and winking at Qin Ming.
Qin Ming: ?
He knows that it's easier to get things done through acquaintances, but this situation is somewhat of a rip-off.
He looked at the enormous figure that emerged from the spatial rift. It was a giant tortoise even larger than Guize, with a dark brown carapace and denser, deeper patterns than Guize's, like countless marks etched by time.
His head emerged from the crack, his eyes gleaming with the eerie light of the deep sea. His gaze fell upon the empty trench, first with shock, then with anger, and finally with a cold, stern expression as he suppressed his rage and prepared to find the real culprit.
Qin Ming's gaze swept back and forth between Gui Ze and Gui Yuan several times, confirming that they were indeed "father and son".
Similar body shape, similar expression, even the angle at which their necks are raised are exactly the same.
He silently looked away, refusing to watch the "father-son exchange" that was about to unfold.
"Is your father a spatial being?" Qin Ming asked in a low voice.
"Of course not, he doesn't have that ability. It must have been opened by our ancestors." Gui Ze said casually, as if to say, "Don't I know my father's abilities?"
Meeting Qin Ming's expectant gaze and considering the little fat boy's attributes, Gui Ze immediately understood.
Without Qin Ming asking again, he continued, "But our ancestor wasn't a spatial being either. However, he lived a long time and was very knowledgeable, so he knew a little bit about everything."
When you reach that age, some things are no longer about talent, but about the accumulation of time.
He has seen and touched everything, and with sufficient strength, he naturally dabbled in all sorts of things.
Qin Ming nodded thoughtfully.
The tip of Kameze's tail swayed again, its posture relaxed and cheerful.
This return journey express bus is awesome!
However, a turtle that looked very much like Kameze appeared behind them at some point and swiped at Kameze's smug head.
That claw strike came without warning, swift and precise, carrying the force of "I've been wanting to beat you up for a long time."
Qin Ming didn't even see how Gui Yuan moved to this location from the spatial rift.
He only felt a blur before his eyes, and the huge claw had already landed on the top of Guize's head with a muffled "thud".
"You damn good-for-nothing, you just watch things happen and don't even try to fix them?" Gui Yuan's voice was filled with suppressed anger.
"It was the spirit of the vortex who wanted to leave, so how could I stop it?" Although Kamezawa subconsciously pulled his head back, his attitude remained firm.
The Xuanming Serpent silently appeared beside Qin Ming, encircling him, Xiao Pang, Keda, and Cang Xuan within its protective range, allowing him to safely observe the father-son interaction up close.
"You good-for-nothing!"
Guiyuan's voice rose a few decibels, but because Guize's shell was tightly closed, his claws had to land on the other's shell, producing an extremely dull sound.
"If we can't keep them, we can use resources to make them split and replicate!"
"Let a wisp of its essence be separated and nurtured with spiritual materials. Although it will take many years to develop sentience, it's better than losing it completely!"
"Do you know that this will result in a lot more single turtles in the clan this year!"
With a few powerful swipes of its claws, the residual force caused some of the rocks underground to crack.
Many seabed rock layers showed fine cracks, and gravel fell from the cracks.
However, the carapace of the turtle was completely smooth, without even a scratch.
He hunched his neck and kept his shell tightly shut, enduring several blows. Only when Guiyuan's claws finally stopped to catch his breath did he slowly stick his head out.
"Forget it, talking to you makes me angry," Guiyuan took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress all his anger.
"Where did Uzumaki Spirit go? If I chase after her now, I should still make it in time."
Upon hearing this, Little Fatty couldn't help but let out a burp.
The burp was loud and long, carrying a rich, pure energy unique to vortex spirits, full of spiritual charm.
It drifted along the seabed, leaving a trail of transparent bubbles, and finally burst open with a "pop" in front of the two turtles, releasing a last wisp of shimmering light.
Guiyuan's voice abruptly stopped.
His enormous claw, which he had just raised to chase the vortex spirit, froze in mid-air.
He slowly, inch by inch, turned his head, his gaze passing over the turtle and the Xuanming Serpent, finally landing on the round, rolling turtle shadow behind him.
Little Fatty's paw was still covering his mouth, but his guilty expression betrayed him.
A silence spread through the trench.
Guiyuan opened his mouth, then closed it, then opened it again, finally managing to squeeze out a sentence from the silence:
"...You haven't finished digesting it yet, have you?"
