Chapter 560 Giant Sea Turtle!
Chapter 560 Giant Sea Turtle!
Seeing the situation, Ling Feng was somewhat surprised, "I didn’t expect you all to improve so quickly!"
"I’m not the fast one; Qian Qian and Lanlan are faster than me. After all, my realm was higher than both of theirs to begin with, and now we’re all on the same starting line!" Joanna said with a wry smile.
"It doesn’t matter who’s higher or lower, as long as one can make a breakthrough, that’s good!"
Ling Feng smiled, took her hand, and continued, "Since you’re about to make a breakthrough, let’s stay in the Fourth Layer Heaven a bit longer today. We’ll aim to have all three of you reach the Qi Strength Realm before dawn tomorrow!"
Joanna nodded, "Alright, if we make a breakthrough, the three of us can explore the Fourth Layer Heaven from now on, and you can go take care of your own stuff!"
After saying that, she chuckled, "Ok, Qian Qian and Lanlan are waiting, let’s not delay any longer, or they’ll start to get anxious!"
"Alright, let’s go."
Ling Feng nodded and teleported with her to the Nine Heavens.
Indeed, upon their arrival, Xun Qianqian and Miao Lanlan immediately teased, "What’s the matter, you two weren’t secretly whispering behind our backs, were you?"
"Of course not, what are you imagining?"
Joanna rolled her eyes at the two of them, then said, "I was just telling him about our imminent breakthrough!"
"Ah, we were going to surprise him, and you spilled the beans ahead of time, you traitor!"
Xun Qianqian laughed.
"Exactly, Sister Anna obviously favors Ling Feng!" Miao Lanlan chimed in.
Joanna’s face turned red with their teasing, and she retorted without relenting, "You two girls, keep blabbing and I’ll never end it with you!"
The three girls burst into laughter, with Ling Feng grinning as he watched from the side. It felt really good; his previous gloom had dissipated a lot!
After the laughter, the four of them entered the Fourth Layer Heaven. He still cautioned them, "We haven’t set foot in that basin yet, so everyone needs to be careful, and we absolutely can’t let our guard down!"
"Don’t worry, whatever monster appears, I’ll show it what it means to be riddled with holes!" Xun Qianqian patted the Gatling gun she was hugging and boasted confidently.
Ling Feng was speechless inside, silently pitying the rapid consumption of bullets to come, but verbally he only reminded her appropriately, "Take it easy, be careful not to run out of bullets!"
"I know!"
Xun Qianqian nodded, hugging her gun as she walked forward first.
On the way to the cliff, they encountered several giant octopus legs, which were easily eliminated and became Ling Feng’s next batch of merchandise.
When they arrived at the top of the cliff, a hanging basket had already been installed. Joanna and Xun Qianqian went down first, followed by Wang Cai and Yellow, and even Da Qiang and Xiao Qiang were sent down.
Lastly, Ling Feng and Miao Lanlan slid down the rope with their hands, and finally, they all set foot in the basin.
Aside from Ling Feng, it was the first time for everyone else there; the ground beneath their feet was soft sand, with hardly any rocks visible. Xun Qianqian couldn’t help but say, "No rocks, looks like there might not be any minerals, right?"
In the Third Layer Heaven, they had gathered quite a few alchemy materials, and although the quantity was large, the variety was somewhat lacking. What Ling Feng needed most now was to find more types of materials.
So, hearing her say this, Ling Feng smiled and said, "Not necessarily, with such a large place, I refuse to believe there are no materials. Let’s walk ahead and see!"
The group set off on a new exploration journey. With Wang Cai and the others scouting ahead, they weren’t worried about any potential dangers, making the trek quite relaxed, almost like going on an outing.
After walking for about twenty minutes, Ling Feng used his binoculars and estimated that it would take at least another twenty kilometers to reach the location of that large tree, which meant that their pace was still a bit slow.
So he turned around, intending to ask everyone to pick up the pace when he suddenly heard Wang Cai’s barking!
Turning to look, he saw both Wang Cai and Yellow fiercely barking in the same direction, while Da Qiang and Xiao Qiang were hiding behind them, appearing very vigilant.
Upon seeing this, Xun Qianqian’s gun barrel was raised and Ling Feng and Joanna each took out their own weapons.
Almost simultaneously, the ground beneath their feet began to shake, at first very slightly, but it soon became violent, and they could hardly stand!
"This is something else. Could this be a level 7 or 8 earthquake?" Ling Feng shouted over the thunderous noise from deep underground.
The girls didn’t respond, their faces tense, not at all as relaxed as he was.
Fortunately, the violent shaking quickly passed because a large mound was pushed up from the ground, and something was about to burrow out from underneath.
Everyone’s eyes widened in anticipation, not knowing what would emerge this time!
The mound gradually grew larger, and then loose soil began to rustle as it fell, revealing a black hemispherical object slowly emerging from the ground.
The object was half the size of a basketball court, dark and glossy, reflecting the sunlight, looking like it was made of metal, leaving everyone stunned!
However, as the object fully emerged from the ground, everyone could see its full form, and Miao Lanlan couldn’t help but exclaim, "My god, is that... a turtle?"
Ling Feng took a closer look and nodded, "That’s right, it’s just a really big one, but it’s definitely a sea turtle."
"This is just ridiculous! Why is it always marine creatures?" Miao Lanlan rolled her eyes.
"I’m not surprised at all. If it had been some kind of wolf, insect, tiger, or leopard, I would have been more shocked!"
Ling Feng shrugged his shoulders and said with a wry smile.
Ever since the discovery of the Fourth Layer Heaven, they had not encountered any land creatures, just those from the ocean. Who knew what was going on?
Looking at the massive sea turtle, Ling Feng saw that Wang Cai and Yellow were both on alert, so he knew this creature posed a certain threat, and turned to say, "Qian Qian, try a burst fire!"
"Okay!"
Xun Qianqian nodded her head and pulled the trigger for a three-round burst!
"Da da da!"
Three armor-piercing bullets were fired, striking the sea turtle’s black shell, sparking a few flashes of light!
On closer inspection, everyone realized that not only had the shell not been penetrated, but there wasn’t even a scratch on it!
"Such a hard shell!"
Xun Qianqian’s eyes went round as she exclaimed loudly.
Ling Feng was also somewhat speechless, "If armor-piercing bullets can’t penetrate it, this shell seems like a good item. I wonder if my God Slayer Saber can handle it!"
After saying that, he leaped into the air, heading straight for the giant sea turtle!
This animal was usually quite docile in the ocean and hardly had any attacking power, so he had underestimated it a bit.
However, to his surprise, while he was still mid-air, the sea turtle suddenly turned and shot a jet of white liquid from its mouth directly at him!
A stream of white fluid sprayed out from the turtle’s mouth, splashing over him!
Ling Feng, in mid-air, found it nearly impossible to dodge. As the three girls cried out in alarm, Wang Cai suddenly opened his mouth, and a bolt of lightning instantly struck the white liquid!
"Boom!"
A ball of fire exploded, and the massive shockwave blew Ling Feng away!
