Chapter 88: Finding the Dry Land Turtle to Settle Accounts

  "Ribbit......" Just before noon, a loud croak sounded beside Ho Hai's tent. A golden shadow jumped out of a hole in the ground, and it was a toad that looked extremely strange.

  The toad's eyes were golden, and its entire body was also golden, except for the white eyeballs. It didn't look very ferocious, but rather gave off an artistic vibe. However, a blood-red eye in the center of its forehead seemed to indicate that this toad wasn't something to be trifled with. As soon as the golden toad jumped up, it began to survey its surroundings, seemingly curious about everything around it.

  The moment the toad jumped out, Huo Hai, who was resting in his tent, already knew. Faintly, a familiar aura emerged from nearby, and Huo Hai knew that Jinchanchui had been successfully refined.

  In this rough way, with a means that was almost utilitarian, unexpectedly, in just one night, they actually managed to refine the Golden Toad Spirit. Although the effect of the spiritual energy was very strong, the resistance of the Three-eyed Toad itself was also astonishing.

  Unfortunately, Huo Hai did not refine it with care. The three-eyed toad's intelligence was not much higher than that of an ordinary yellow-grade spirit beast, only slightly higher than that of a wild beast. Moreover, it had not undergone the refinement of the insect array, nor had it been blood-refined. This toad had little connection with its own kind and could only listen to orders, but not precise commands.

  Even if it's a little far away from itself, it will lose control of itself and even become a wild spirit beast, running away directly. But this also has its advantages, this Golden Toad Spirit doesn't occupy Ho Hai's spiritual power, it's just like having a pet.

  Even if the Golden Toad Bug dies, it won't have any impact on himself. It can be said that this method of refining has its advantages and disadvantages. But for this temporarily used bug, Huo Hai didn't plan to control it all the time, so it's enough like this.

  "Linggu bone boundary, this degree is already quite good, let's go find the dry land turtle to avenge." Huo Hai's eyes narrowed, and he could clearly sense that after refining, the golden toad had thoroughly defeated the Linggu bone boundary. This three-eyed toad, without getting the dry land turtle's tortoise pearl, had transformed itself into a Linggu bone boundary spirit beast through this special method.

  It's also unknown whether this is a blessing or a disaster. However, these things have nothing to do with Huo Hai. What he needs is the power of the highly toxic light beam. After packing up his tent, Huo Hai set out on the road again with a large number of star beetles.

  This time it's different, there is a golden toad nearby. Back to the place where the tortoise was observed before. Huo Hai was surprised to find that the tortoise was still in its original position, as if it hadn't moved at all.

  Yes, tortoises are not good at speed to begin with. Staying in one place for a long time is also normal. Besides, this is just by the riverbank, if something dangerous really happens, it can directly enter the river. Tortoises live on land but can still enter water to live. It's just that because they're used to being on land, they basically won't enter the water.

  "Hmph, I didn't think you were still here. In that case, today is your day of death." Huo Hai said coldly. Speaking of which, this tortoise was indeed able to endure. It's unknown whether it was because he always felt danger around him.

  The tortoise has been staying in this place since it chased away the three-eyed toad yesterday, its entire body shrinking into its shell and not coming out. The star worm that has been monitoring here all along only knew that the tortoise had not changed at all. It can be said that when it left yesterday, it was like this, and today it came back, still like this.

  With a stir in his heart, Huo Hai pointed at the dry land turtle in front of him and said in a low voice: "Jin Chanwu, go and kill it for me."

  There was no way, the Golden Toad had not undergone blood refining and could not be controlled directly, nor did it communicate with its own spirit. Huo Hai was unable to make the Golden Toad understand his meaning through his spirit. Even if he said it out loud, the Golden Toad still didn't understand.

  What really made the Golden Toad understand Huo Hai's meaning was actually Huo Hai's fingers. His fingers pointed at the Dry Land Turtle, and that meant attack. After the Three-eyed Golden Toad understood Huo Hai's meaning, it quietly crawled forward.

  This thing can still remember, it seems very strong and powerful. Even if its strength has increased, in the heart of Jin Chan Jue, there is still a shadow. Without using jump, but quietly approached the past. The dry land turtle had no reaction at all, and was quickly approached by Jin Chan Jue within thirty meters. This distance is just the best distance for Jin Chan Jue to use its toxic light beam attack.

  If it's too far, the Golden Toad's attack will easily cause deviations and give the opponent a chance to dodge. More importantly, if the distance is too great, the toxicity of the poisonous light beam will slowly begin to weaken until nothing remains.

  This toxicity is not a real toxin, but a variant of light toxin. In Huo Hai's understanding, it's like the toxins caused by magic in some games from previous lives. After a period of time, it will be gone.

  This toxin, which is harmless to the environment and leaves no evidence, is actually something that Hua Hai quite likes. If he weren't born with a natural dislike for frogs and toads, Hua Hai would really want to refine a Golden Toad Bug. But never mind, he'll wait until later when he finds insects with similar abilities. The Tianling Continent is so vast, there must be some special insects somewhere.

  The tortoise on dry land did not react at all, as if it had no idea about the impending danger. It is also possible that it sensed the danger but was confident in its own defense. Of course, it is also possible that the tortoise had no other choice.

  The light condensed, and the three-eyed golden toad faced the desert tortoise, emitting a highly toxic beam of light. As its eyes changed, the highly toxic beam was no longer the previous dark green color, but had turned bright red, like a burst of blood light. The speed of the beam was extremely fast, almost instantaneous, and it hit the shell of the desert tortoise before being intercepted.

  The special ability of the three-eyed toad, even if it is refined into a golden toad, will not change. Although the light was blocked by the shell, the special toxin still penetrated into the body of the desert turtle, completely entering.

  After a while, the tortoise weakly poked its head and limbs out. The toxin left the tortoise with no strength at all, not even enough to withdraw into its shell, which was an energy-saving way, and it looked like it was about to die.

  Huo Hai was on high alert, letting the Golden Toad retreat, worried that the Dry Land Turtle in this state would trigger a self-explosion. However, Huo Hai gradually discovered that the Dry Land Turtle didn't make any movement at all. Until the very end, when its breath was completely gone and it had died entirely, still without triggering an explosion. Huo Hai furrowed his brow, using the Star Toad to probe several times before finally confirming the situation.

  Carefully walked up, took out his own Xuan-level dagger, and along the dry land turtle's shell seam, with great difficulty, slowly cut it open bit by bit. The Star Worm helped at the same time, starting to tear and bite along the position of the shell.

  When the dry land turtle is still or moving, it has spiritual power to support it, so that the star worm cannot bite. However, after death, there is no more spiritual power to support it, and these relatively soft places such as seams can't withstand the star worm's mouth.

  After a while, Huo Hai found that his cutting speed was indeed no match for Xing Huang, so he gave up and let Xing Huang take over. After waiting for two minutes, the tortoise shell of the desert turtle was finally completely cut open. The internal situation of the desert turtle's body, Huo Hai could finally see it too. "So that's how it is, I didn't expect the venom of the three-eyed toad to have such an effect."

  Huo Hai had long heard that the venom of the three-eyed toad had a certain effect on spiritual energy, and if poisoned, it would cause one's own spiritual energy to become disordered, making it impossible to control for a while. But he didn't expect this ability to be so effective against the Dry Land Turtle.

  The spiritual power of the Dry Land Turtle is different from that of ordinary spiritual beasts, which are stored in the Spiritual Source. Instead, it is basically all merged into the turtle beads on its body. When encountering danger, as long as there is a movement in the heart, the turtle bead will automatically release spiritual power to support itself.

  But facing the three-eyed golden toad's toxin, without the protection of the spiritual source, the spiritual power in his body was not unified. So in an instant, he was invaded by this toxic substance right into his dwelling place. His spiritual power was in disarray, unable to control his spiritual power, and wanting to make the turtle bead self-destruct became impossible. In the end, the dry land turtle could only wait for its own slow death, but it couldn't die together with him.

  "It's really a case of one thing suppressing another, the greatest natural enemy of the desert turtle is actually the three-eyed toad that lives in the same region." Huo Hai sighed as he ordered Xing Huang to start digging. As they ate the desert turtle meat, they dug out the turtle pearl.

  Such a large desert tortoise, with more than 20 turtle pearls in its body. After this trip, it will be a contribution of more than 20 colleges. This time, I really made a big profit. With the method to deal with desert tortoises, will there be fewer turtle pearls from desert tortoises in the future?

  The poison on the dry land turtle's body was directly ignored by Huo Hai. As for the toxin, as a Gu insect, Xing Huang completely ignored it and ate it directly without any problem. Moreover, this toxin derived from the three-eyed toad's variation talent can only last for a period of time. After this period of time, the toxin will automatically disappear, so Huo Hai is not worried about the poison in the turtle pearl at all.

  After picking up the tortoise bead, Huo Hai felt relieved and said loudly: "Let's go, we set off to continue searching for the dry land tortoise."

  Finally, the thing that had been stuck in his mind was resolved, and Huo Hai felt a sense of relief wash over him. The sky even seemed brighter. "Huh? Isn't it said that when you resolve something, your mood will improve? Why don't I feel anything?"

  It wasn't long before Huo Hai started complaining. The past ones were indeed deceiving. Those main characters, after solving a small matter, would rise in spirit and their cultivation would rapidly soar upwards, it was all fake. Didn't he also solve a matter? Why didn't he feel anything at all? "Damn it, I'll never believe again."

  Hu Hai grumbled to himself, adjusted his mood and continued on. Anyway, this Miga Mountain, at present, no longer posed any threat to Hu Hai, so he charged forward directly.
