Ye Qiu’s face was odd, he didn’t expect that this fiery red figure was actually a turtle.
This turtle was different from an ordinary turtle.
It was as big as a bath tub, and its body was red like a flame, especially the tortoise shell on its back, which was covered with lines and crisscrosses, adding a bit of mystery to it.
Fire Turtle!
Ye Qiu recognised the origin of this turtle at a glance, and shock appeared on his face.
Fire Turtles were already rare, and a Fire Turtle as big as this was even rarer.
“This Fire Turtle, it has lived for at least a hundred years!”
Ye Qiu had just thought of this when he saw the two eyes of the fire turtle staring at the red fruit in his hand with a ferocious light.
“Ow-”
The Fire Turtle let out a sharp whistling sound at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu could see that this Fire Turtle was angry, and the reason for its anger was the red fruit in his hand.
“It seems that it has been eyeing this fruit for a long time, but it’s just a pity that I got there first.”
Ye Qiu didn’t want to cause any trouble and prepared to leave the place.
He had long since seen that this Fire Turtle was extremely extraordinary.
Who knew that just as he moved his feet, the fire turtle let out a loud cry of “Ow” from its mouth and then pounced over.
As we all know, the turtle’s speed is very slow, but this fire turtle is a different kind, faster than lightning.
In an instant, it pounced in front of Ye Qiu.
“I didn’t want to pay attention to you, but since you’re determined to seek death, it’s not my fault.”Ye Qiu blasted out with a fist.
“Dang!”
The fist smashed on the claws of the Fire Turtle as if it was smashing on a steel plate, making a metallic clashing sound.
Ye Qiu only felt an immense and incomparable force coming from the Fire Turtle’s claw as if it was a mountain, shocking him to involuntarily retreat.
Rubbing rubbing rubbing!
Ye Qiu retreated three steps in a row before he was able to stand firmly, a surge of Qi and blood surging within his chest.
The power of this Fire Turtle was not weaker than a Super Warrior in the slightest.
Ye Qiu was very shocked.
“I didn’t expect that you were so powerful, I underestimated you.”Ye Qiu said.
“Ow-”
The Fire Turtle let out another angry cry, as if it was saying to Ye Qiu, if you don’t give me that red fruit, I will kill you.
“Shit, a beast is just a beast, how dare you yell at me, I think you’re really tired of living.”
Ye Qiu was furious and swung his fist again.
“Dang dang dang!”
Ye Qiu threw three consecutive punches, all of which smashed on the back of the fire turtle.
Each punch that landed made a metallic clashing sound.
The Fire Turtle was unharmed, moreover, it stretched its neck out and shook it at Ye Qiu as if to say, with this much power, are you tickling me?
Ye Qiu clasped a golden needle in his palm, then poured his internal energy into the golden needle and flexed his fingers.
“Swoosh!”
The golden needle made a whistling sound and shot towards the Fire Turtle’s eyes.
In the next second, a terrifying scene appeared.
The Fire Turtle’s neck twisted and it bit down on the golden needle, then, its flat mouth opened wide and a “snorting” sound rang out as it treated the golden needle as food and ate it with relish.
Ye Qiu was both shocked and heartbroken.
Shocked because the animal’s teeth were so good that it could even chew something as hard as a golden needle, and distressed because it was an ancestral golden needle given to him by Sun Shengshi, and it was a pity to lose one just like that.
“Ow-”
An angry roar once again came out of the Fire Turtle’s mouth.
“I hate it when people yakk at me, especially brutes.”Ye Qiu finished speaking and clenched his fist once again.
However, right at this moment, the Fire Turtle suddenly opened its mouth and spat out red flames from its mouth.
Ye Qiu retreated extremely fast.
The flames landed on the place where he had just stood, and in an instant, there was a “zi zi” sound on the ground, and in just a blink of an eye, a fist-sized hole appeared on the lapis lazuli plate, accompanied by wisps of white smoke.
Ye Qiu’s face became grave.
He could see that the flame spat out by the Fire Turtle contained a strange poison.
“What a strong corrosiveness, it’s even more powerful than sulphuric acid, fortunately I retreated fast enough just now, if I got a little bit of this, a big hole would have appeared on my body as well.”
“It seems that we can’t show any mercy.”
“We have to settle this beast as soon as possible.”
Ye Qiu no longer hesitated and focused all his strength on his fist, and then, leapt in the air.
“Boom!”
Ye Qiu ruthlessly slammed his fist onto the turtle shell.
This fist, weighed more than a thousand pounds.
“Ka-ching!”
There was a crunching sound.
A crack appeared on the turtle shell.
However, it was only a crack, and it didn’t seriously hurt the fire turtle, instead, it enraged it.
With a howl, the Fire Turtle directly jumped up and pounced on Ye Qiu, and at the same time, raised its head high and spat out red flames from its mouth again.
Ye Qiu was in the air, and when he saw the flames spewing towards him, he immediately did a backflip and retraced his steps.
However, he didn’t stop, his toes followed a little, and with a lightning fast momentum, he slammed his fist on the neck of the fire turtle in a lightning fast manner.
“Ya–” The Fire Turtle let out a mournful cry, and its body immediately flew backwards.
Taking this opportunity, Ye Qiu bullied his way up.
“Boom!”
A fist smashed onto the Fire Turtle’s abdomen.
“Pfft!”
Blood splashed out.
“Snort.”
After the Fire Turtle suffered a heavy blow, it screamed furiously, and its flat mouth opened wide, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and its mouth spewed flames furiously.
Ye Qiu was prepared and quickly dodged the flames, followed by two more punches that smashed on the Fire Turtle’s abdomen.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
When his two punches landed, not only did a bloody hole appear in the fire turtle’s abdomen, spraying blood outwards, even its mouth was spitting blood outwards.
It then struggled for a few moments and completely stopped moving.
Dead!
Ye Qiu let out a sigh of relief, at this time, a “gurgling” sound came from his stomach, feeling very hungry.
“This Fire Turtle appeared just in time, just when I was hungry, I can take you to fill my stomach.”
Ye Qiu roughly ripped off two turtle legs and directly stuffed them into his mouth.
At this time, he couldn’t care if there were any bacteria on this beast, first fill his stomach.
After eating a few bites, Ye Qiu felt a hot current rising from his dantian.
“Huh, this beast’s meat can still grow power?”
Ye Qiu was overjoyed and quickly finished eating the two turtle legs, then, he tore off the other two legs of the Fire Turtle and devoured them in a burst.
After Ye Qiu had eaten his fill, he then sat down on his knees and started meditating.
This sitting was a whole four hours.
During this time, the bones in his body were constantly emitting the sound of “clacking”.
When Ye Qiu opened his eyes again, he looked radiant.
“I didn’t expect that this time, I was blessed by a misfortune, a beast actually helped me to successfully cultivate the second turn of the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique Bone Tempering Realm, it’s just a pity that I can’t take away the rest of the turtle’s meat.”
“It’s not advisable to stay for long at this moment, it’s better to leave early.”
Ye Qiu put the red fruit into his pocket and then continued to walk forward.
Without walking for long, another stone door appeared in front of him.
Sixteen words were engraved on the stone door:
Take one step forward and die; take one step back and still have a way to live.
