The Growth of a God

Chapter 329 - 20: Slaying the Giant Turtle, Pacifying the Four Seas

"Haha!"

"I thought you were so impressive? Turns out you’re just a halfwit!"

Barely dodging the slash of the Space Blade, the Giant Turtle felt a shiver down its spine.

However, something the Giant Turtle never expected happened. Just as it recklessly charged at Tianyou, the Dragon Child, who had been ignored until now, finally came to its senses.

"Wow!"

Fueled with rage, the Dragon Child lunged directly at the Giant Turtle.

In this process, the body of the Dragon Child started expanding and gigantifying rapidly, just like the Giant Turtle.

The most crucial thing was, at this moment, the Dragon Child was holding a "Space Blade" in its hands — the very spatial dimension that Tianyou had launched earlier.

"Dragon Child!"

Gu Zhu’s pupils dilated in shock upon witnessing this scene, and he couldn’t help but shout out.

Equally astonished by what was happening to the Dragon Child, the Fox Dragon, who had been entangled with Gu Zhu, also stopped in its tracks.

Because the reason the Dragon Child’s body could expand again was that it was continuously absorbing the power of the Space Blade.

Or to be more precise, the frenzy-driven Dragon Child had forgotten Long Bo’s warning and began to absorb everything and every energy it could touch without restraint.

Especially that spatial dimension Tianyou shot out, which was directly a "medium" connecting to another dimension.

In its current state, the Dragon Child was absorbing from another world to continuously grow, making its potential even more terrifying than the Giant Turtle.

This was the Dragon Child’s unique [Ascension Ladder].

In just a brief moment, the Dragon Child’s size grew to match the size of the Giant Turtle’s head.

And as time passed, the Dragon Child’s size continued to swell, with a tendency to rival the Giant Turtle.

Swish!

Unlike Tianyou’s remote control, the Dragon Child, wielding the Space Blade, was much more stable.

Before the Giant Turtle could crash into Tianyou, it sliced off one of the Giant Turtle’s forelegs.

Since the Space Blade doesn’t cut in the traditional physical sense, but rather severs from the spatial dimension,

the Giant Turtle didn’t even feel any pain as its blood poured into the space-time rift of the Space Blade.

And because it was severed by spatial obstruction, the Giant Turtle’s vaunted regenerative power was rendered useless, leaving it to helplessly watch itself topple forward.

"Roar!"

It let out another furious roar, as the Giant Turtle realized the arrival of death.

Its body was locked by Space Chains, and the Dragon Child, holding the Space Blade, was advancing step by step.

Not to mention the not yet ascended Giant Turtle, even a True God in "Saint Form" might not be able to escape.

The events that followed confirmed this point.

Swish!

Another bout of flashing blades and glinting swords.

The Dragon Child decisively severed the Giant Turtle’s second leg.

It was only at this moment that the Giant Turtle realized the urgency of saving itself, and the Fox Dragon at its side rushed towards the Dragon Child, disregarding everything.

Unfortunately, it was all too late.

Swish! Swish!

As the Dragon Child successively sliced off the third and fourth legs, it set its sights on the Giant Turtle’s head.

As long as it could sever the head, it could put a definitive end to this world-ending disaster.

"Aang!"

Similarly realizing this, the Fox Dragon, ignoring Gu Zhu’s fierce assault, madly unleashed thunderbolts at the Dragon Child.

However, the Dragon Child, equally driven by frenzy, paid no heed to the thunderous bombardment and single-mindedly swung its blade at the Giant Turtle’s head.

Swish!

The blade left a mark, the sword left a shadow.

The powerful Space Blade flashed by, leaving behind the bisected corpse of the Giant Turtle.

The furious, unwilling, and despairing Giant Turtle, even as its head plunged into the sea, remained glaring wide-eyed, dead without coming to terms with its fate.

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

With the death of the Giant Turtle, all the Epic Creatures except for the Fox Dragon scattered in a chaotic rout.

For these Epic Creatures originally driven into a frenzy by the Giant Turtle, with their master dead, they naturally regained their original rationality and instincts.

Amidst the nearly completely crimson waves of the South Sea,

the Epic Creatures fled desperately, whether in the sky or in the sea.

Fortunately, the Hundred Races Alliance Army didn’t pursue the victory but instead stood dumbfounded, staring at the Dragon Child in the center of the battlefield.

"Dragon Child!"

Gu Zhu rushed to the Dragon Child’s side first, braving the danger of being struck by thunder, forcibly pulling the Space Blade from its hand.

Without the support of the Space Blade, the Dragon Child’s size unsurprisingly stopped growing larger.

As for the hysterical Fox Dragon nearby?

It had long been bound by Tianyou with Space Chains, completely immobilized.

"What should we do next?"

Perched on Tianyou’s shoulder, the Fire Raccoon Rat looked at the still-churning South Sea and couldn’t help but ask softly.

Even the Fire Raccoon Rat could tell that the Giant Turtle’s death wasn’t the end of this disaster.

On the contrary, with its blood soaking into the seawater, the Chishui River and South Sea had truly turned into a red sea.

The Giant Turtle’s blood contained abundant nutrients, inevitably leading to a phenomenon of enrichment in the South Sea for a considerable time in the future.

Adding on the Epic Creatures scattered and fleeing in all directions, the Fire Raccoon Rat felt a headache just thinking about it.

However, compared to those matters needing attention later, the real pressing issues now were the Giant Turtle’s carcass and the Dragon Child’s current state.

Even in death, the Giant Turtle’s body didn’t shrink.

Instead, like a true continent, it continued to expand outward at a slow yet persistent pace.

Because the soil on the Giant Turtle’s carapace hadn’t lost its effect with its death, but continued absorbing seawater and expanding on its own.

Secondly, there was the condition of the Dragon Child’s body.

Even though Gu Zhu timely snatched the Space Blade from its grip, its size had already swelled to a third of the Giant Turtle’s.

Regardless of how it should live in the future,

what to do with it now was already a head-splitting problem.

Given its current size, any step the Dragon Child took on land would cause a small-scale earthquake.

This practically declared that the Dragon Child could never again approach any city of the Mountain and Sea People, nor would any city be willing to welcome such a colossal Dragon Child.

"I think I’m doomed this time..."

Tianyou, feeling deeply troubled, scratched his head. Before embarking on this mission, he had promised Li that he’d ensure no accidents would befall the Dragon Child.

Yet in the current situation, the Dragon Child didn’t seem to be "completely accident-free" at all.

Even if one were to take a step back, Tianyou regarded the Dragon Child as his sister, so ignoring its current predicament was simply not an option for him.
