Chapter 1686: Almost There

Diyou, in Jiang Yun's understanding, should only be... the Emperor! In the tomb, there was not only a real living emperor, but now he actually controlled this Diyou and bargained with himself for Gao...This massive black figure emerged from the earth, it was a black turtle!

This turtle is entirely black, over a hundred feet long. Its four short legs are as strong and powerful as small mountains.

Especially on its hard shell, countless sharp and thick spines were densely packed, gleaming with a cold black light.

Turtles, and naturally ginger clouds, are nothing unfamiliar. Even seeing a turtle demon wouldn't be surprising.

But looking at this turtle in front of him, Jiang Yun was reminded of another turtle demon he had encountered before.

This is the boundary of extinction, where Jiang Gui resides in the fallen celestial realm.

According to Jian Gui himself, he was saved by the Ginger Clan, but instead of leaving with them, he stayed in the Realm-Falling Land and became a member of Tianluo Sect.

Even, in the subsequent dream realm, Jiang Gui not only entered it but also transformed into Sen Luo, a ghost clan member from the Netherworld.

Although Ginger Cloud learned some secrets about the Ginger Clan from Ginger Gui, and knew that her grandfather's seal was actually a reincarnation seal possessed by the Ginger Clan's spirit public, she never fully trusted Ginger Gui.

And at this very moment, looking at the black tortoise in front of him, besides the spines on its shell, it was almost exactly like Jiang Gui's true form, which made Jiang Yun couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly.

Because he was thinking, what kind of relationship might there be between the two demons

If it were just about appearances, there wouldn't be such associations with Jiang Yun.

But ginger returns to the Tianluo Sect where he resides, there is also a powerful demon named Tianluo.

And when the heavens fell, it was not a demon from the Dao domain, but rather from the Annihilation domain!

This made Jiang Yun's mind involuntarily flash a thought: Could Jiang Gui not be a demon from the Dao domain, but rather from... the battlefield beyond the domains

However, this idea was only a fleeting thought in Ginger Cloud's mind.

Because even he himself felt that he was overthinking things. After all, they were both tortoise demons, coming from the same battlefield outside the realm. How could something like this be so coincidental!

What's more, this turtle monster before us not only possesses formidable strength but also exudes an aura of dominance comparable to that of the Little Beast Banner, a true kingly presence. It's simply beyond comparison with Ginger Return!

Obviously, it is this world, the king of the hundreds of monsters!

With the appearance of the tortoise demon, Xiao Shou's fighting spirit grew even stronger. He roared to the sky and shot toward the tortoise demon like a launched arrow.

This scene once again made Jiang Yun shake his head secretly.

Even though he was clearly outmatched by the Turtle Monster, the little beast rushed in first. Though brave, he truly had no combat experience at all!

As expected, when the small beast charged at him, a look of contempt flashed in the tortoise demon's eyes. He stood there, not dodging or evading at all, allowing the beast to crash into him with full force.

With a dull thud, the little beast's body flew backward even faster than before.

It wasn't until it flew hundreds of feet away that its figure stabilized. The little beast’s face was also grimacing, and even stretched out its claws to scratch its own body.

Obviously, the Turtle Demon's physical strength was far beyond his reach, and he was instead injured by the force of the counter-shock.

However, the little beast was still unafraid. It suddenly opened its mouth and spit out a ball of flames, which transformed into a fiery bird a hundred zhang in size, charging straight towards the turtle demon.

"Power of fire!"

Looking at the firebirds spewing from the little beast, ginger cloud felt a new surprise.

But Ginger Cloud shook his head again, this level of attack wouldn't have the slightest effect on the Turtle Demon.

As it turned out, Ginger Cloud's judgment was correct.

Although the Phoenix struck the Tortoise Demon, exploding into a sea of flames that engulfed it completely and raising the temperature around them dramatically, the Tortoise Demon was unharmed. Instead, it opened its mouth and sucked in all the flames, swallowing them whole.

Next, the little beast began to launch a series of attacks.

And Jiang Yun's eyes grew wider and wider.

Because he saw the small beast's attacks included the power of the Five Elements, thunder power, blood power...

Every kind of power, Jiang Yun was incredibly familiar with.

"If I'm not mistaken, this little fellow should still have Dao patterns, ghostly Qi, and chaotic power..."

To this point, Jiang Yun finally understood. The little beast's power, apart from its powerful physique, was actually the same power he possessed!

Although the Xiao Shou's mastery of complex powers caused a hint of surprise to flicker in the turtle demon's eyes, unfortunately, even if it were Ginger Cloud himself wielding these powers, he probably wouldn't be able to harm the turtle demon in the slightest. Therefore, Xiao Shou's repeated attacks felt to the turtle demon like nothing more than an irritating itch!

By this point, Jiang Yun had a much clearer understanding of the Xiao Shou's strength.

Although this little fellow doesn't possess much power when displaying these abilities now, as long as it continues to cultivate, in time, it could become a Dao Demon like Wu Yang and others. Once it comprehends the corresponding Dao within these powers, that's when it truly becomes the king of all demonic beasts!

"Even, he is the king among demons!"

The potential of a small creature is limitless, as long as it has enough room to grow, then it will indeed become extremely powerful.

But now, Jiang Yun knew that relying on potential alone would be no match for the Turtle Demon.

As expected, when the little beast's attacks finally came to an end, the turtle demon suddenly opened its enormous mouth and unleashed a blast of air towards the little beast!

The turtle demon's breath was a howling gale that slammed into the little beast, sending it flying backward and crashing against a mountain.

Before the little beast's form even fell, from the countless sharp thorns on the turtle demon's shell, one thorn suddenly shot out like a launched arrow. It was incredibly fast, arriving before the little beast in an instant and striking its body with force.

The power contained within this thorn was immense. Although the golden lightning flickering around the small beast had coalesced into a net of thunder, like an armor protecting it, as soon as the thorn struck, the armor crumbled instantly, causing the small beast to let out a cry of pain!

After landing a hit, spikes on the tortoise demon's shell began to shoot out one by one.

No matter how the little beast dodged, these spikes, as if they had eyes, could always accurately hit its body.

Under the relentless assault, the little beast's movements grew slower and slower. Wounds began to appear on its body, with blood slowly oozing out, staining its once pristine white fur crimson.

In the end, after being shot by more than ten spikes in succession, the little beast was directly knocked from the air and fell to the ground, lying there motionless. Blood continued to flow from its mouth.

"Almost done..."

These four words, Ginger Cloud had repeated in her heart countless times.

Whenever a little beast was struck by a thorn, Ginger Cloud would feel it was about time for her to make a move.

But, because he had a very strong connection with the little beast, he never sensed that the little beast was in mortal danger. This naturally meant that although the little beast was injured, it was at least not life-threatening, so he kept enduring it until now.

Right now, looking at the little beast that was clearly out of combat and badly injured, although Jiang Yun still hadn't realized it was in mortal danger, he couldn't help but feel something.

And the turtle demon also swayed its massive body, moving its limbs and crawled to the front of the little beast, which finally made Jiang Yun decide to make a move.

Just then, a sly gleam appeared in Xiao Shou's eyes, and he once again gave Jiang Yun a huge surprise!
