The Growth of a God

Chapter 326 - 17: Poisonous Bullet

[Are you really sure you want to stop me?]

The giant turtle slowly stood up on its four legs, its deep voice filled with an extreme sense of oppression.

For the giant turtle, which was already prepared for battle, even if the opponent was the Ocean Apostle known as the "Creator Incarnation," it was absolutely impossible to stop it from choosing the Path to Divinity.

[It was never me who tried to stop you...]

Letting out a final sigh, the Merfolk Spirit knew that its attempt to dissuade had failed yet again.

[This is the last time I’ll try to persuade you. You’ve been too arrogant from the start.]

[You think I’m the greatest obstacle on your Path to Divinity, yet you never considered that those mundane beings you’ve overlooked are your true impediments!]

As those words were spoken, the "Flood dragon Body" composed of ocean currents quickly dissipated, and the Merfolk Spirit’s will departed from this Bottomless Abyss.

The giant turtle, stunned in place, hadn’t yet grasped the meaning behind those words when it suddenly noticed a crystalline light appearing within a distant whirlpool on the sea’s surface.

When the giant turtle widened its eyes to discern the essence of that light, a primal fear suddenly surged within its heart.

[Who!?]

Uncontrollably letting out a roar, the giant turtle’s voice directly reached the light.

It was only then that the light revealed its true form—a crystal-clear bone ship.

"So, you’re the one who blocked the entrance to the ’Bottomless Abyss,’ causing this disaster!"

Tianyou’s voice emanated from the ship, followed by a piercing shriek.

Swoosh—Boom!

Even in this underwater world, under the weight of millions of tons, the shriek was deafening.

Realizing instinctively that something was amiss, the giant turtle opened its mouth and unleashed a Heaven-Reaching Water Cannon, attempting to stop the bone bullet barreling toward it.

Then came a shocking turn of events.

The bone bullet, enveloped in holy light, tore through the water cannon and shot into the giant turtle’s mouth.

Whoosh!

In an instant, dark red blood spread through the ocean like ink.

The heavily injured giant turtle only felt its tongue go numb, as an overwhelmingly salty taste that nearly choked it rushed into its nostrils.

It wasn’t just the taste of blood; it was mixed with some lethal toxic substance.

——Godslaying Spear·Poisonous Bullet!

.........................................................

Rumble...

Its four legs fell to the ground, its shell tilted and shifted away.

The Bottomless Abyss, blocked by the giant turtle, finally reopened as endless ocean currents rushed into it.

"Is it... over?"

Staring, slack-jawed, at Tianyou, who had transformed one arm into a cannon barrel, the Fire Raccoon Rat asked incredulously.

That giant turtle was so terrifying, so enormous, even daring to stand against the Merfolk Spirit.

But now, Tianyou had felled it with just one shot, completely overturning the Fire Raccoon Rat’s understanding.

"This is the power of technology."

"My bullets are made from a special element called ’Po.’"

"I extracted this element from uranium ore and cassiterite. Just one-tenth of a milligram can kill the life of an entire world."

"The bullet I just fired at the giant turtle, the entire warhead was composed of Po element."

"The key thing is, Po has a strong penetrating attribute, hardly any material can resist its corrosion."

At Tianyou’s words, the Fire Raccoon Rat’s shock swiftly turned to panic.

While it couldn’t fully understand the technical terms in Tianyou’s explanation, that didn’t prevent it from comprehending the bullet’s terrifying nature.

"Are you crazy!?"

"You dare use such a dangerous bullet in the Mountain and Sea Realm!?"

"Aren’t you afraid that the toxin will spread and destroy the entire world?"

Facing the Fire Raccoon Rat’s questioning, Tianyou, already having a plan, just smiled calmly.

"That’s why I only dared to use this bullet in the Bottomless Abyss..."

"The Bottomless Abyss is the recycling and purification system of the entire world, able to purify all impurities."

"The Po element won’t have time to spread; it’ll be drawn into the Bottomless Abyss and then revert to the most harmless substances, returning to the Mountain and Sea Realm."

What Tianyou said was true. If it weren’t for the prior knowledge of the Bottomless Abyss’s properties, it wouldn’t dare bet the life force of the entire Mountain and Sea Realm.

"Even so... it’s too dangerous..."

The Fire Raccoon Rat opened its mouth with a nervous stutter, wanting to say more, but felt a massive tremor emanating from the ocean’s depths.

That was the giant turtle standing up again, emitting a powerful roar.

Roar!!!

The terrifying sound wave ripped through the waves via water ripples.

The "Holy Relic Ship," bearing the brunt, rotated, causing massive visible cracks to form on its surface.

This Sacred Artifact, left behind by the Virtuous King, did not fare much better than a rock in the face of the giant turtle’s roar.

"This is bad!"

The Fire Raccoon Rat clearly noticed this too, its eyes filled with panic and dread.

In fact, it wasn’t just the Fire Raccoon Rat; even Tianyou was shocked by the giant turtle’s displayed resilient life force.

Having taken a Poisonous Bullet capable of wiping out a world’s life, yet it stood up resiliently.

Such terrifying life force was not something an ordinary Ascender could possess.

In the entire All Heavens and Myriad Realms, this giant turtle ranked among the prominent demigods.

"As expected, it won’t be easily resolved, right?"

Quickly gathering its emotions, Tianyou, though not as flustered as the Fire Raccoon Rat, still found the scene exceeding its expectations.

"It’s good that I never planned to fight alone!"

With a single hand, it tore open its chest cavity, carefully extracting a ring from its bony chest.

That was the [Ring of Domination], the true trump card that made Tianyou dare undertake this mission.

Whoosh!

In the endless deep sea, a massive rift in time and space suddenly appeared.

In the next second, a Skeleton Giant clad in Flesh and Blood Armor emerged from the rift, kicking the giant turtle’s hard shell.

Boom!!!

More exaggerated than any landslide.

The immense rumble traveled from the ocean depths to the surface, still causing huge waves.

But that was not the end. Taking advantage of the giant turtle being dazed by the Skeleton Giant’s kick, a colossal giant emerged from the rift.

It was a Female Giant clad in armor and wielding a Giant Hammer.

Judging by appearances alone, she seemed to be a girl of merely fifteen or sixteen.

Yet, when she raised the Heavy Hammer, ready to strike the giant turtle, no one dared to doubt her power.

For her stature even surpassed the giant turtle’s by several measures, a true Heaven-Supporting Giant.
