Top Level Two, its overall strength is already comparative to the peak of the human Vital Energy Refining Realm.
Moreover, it is a fierce water beast, with an incredible combat power in water, and it can hide anywhere.
Given the vast expanse of Zhuwei Lake covering thousands of acres and the surrounding waterways leading everywhere, it would be hard to handle if this tortoise beast is determined to hide
“Shouzhe.” Wang Xiaohan looks a little worried, “If this turtle dares to show itself, Sixth Grandfather is not afraid of it. But if it wants to hide or wage guerrilla warfare, even a Celestial being would be powerless. After all, everyone’s Spiritual Sense has limits and can’t conduct a large-scale search.”
“Xiaohan is right.” Old Ancestor Longyan landed gracefully on the boat, “If we can’t accurately locate it, it won’t be easy to handle.”
Wang Shouzhe’s expression gradually grew solemn. The Zhuwei Lake dredging and land reclamation project was a part of his grand plan, and it would be a great joke if it were disrupted by a tortoise.
“Shouzhe, if all else fails, Sixth Grandfather can organize some fishermen.” Wang Xiaohan suggested, “We pretend to dredge the lake until the tortoise comes to us. We can briefly trap it in a net and then quickly eliminate it.”
This plan is barely acceptable, albeit a bit passive, but it’s better than being clueless.
At this moment.
“Thud!” Wang Licui jumped aboard, making the boat sway.
Wang Shouzhe’s eyelids twitched as he stared at her with a strange look. Had this girl gained too much weight?
However, on closer inspection, she didn’t seem too fat. Her face was just a bit chubby like a baby’s, and her body was only slightly overweight. The problem must have been with her movement technique.
Immediately, he raised an eyebrow and said, “Little girl, can you properly cultivate your movement technique? Which Profound Martial female practitioner jumps like you, landing with a ‘thud’?”
Wang Shouzhe was somewhat exasperated.
The Wang family’s movement technique, even at the basic level, emphasized elegance and lightness. The advanced movement technique, Willow Catkin Body Method, was even more elegant and elusive, moving with the wind and unpredictable.
But in her case, it had turned into a “thud!”
“Fourth Uncle Fourth Uncle.” Wang Licui complained pitifully, “I’ve advanced in cultivation too quickly and can’t control my body well. Normally, my movement technique is very light.”
Light? I don’t believe you.
Also, that excuse of advancing too quickly in cultivation was particularly irksome to hear.
“Anyway, focus on your cultivation in the near future.” Wang Shouzhe criticized seriously, “Don’t get cocky just because your cultivation base has slightly improved. A Profound Martial practitioner needs more than just a cultivation realm, otherwise, you’re just an empty shell with nothing to offer.”
“Yes, Fourth Uncle.” Wang Licui replied listlessly. Then she said, “Licui came to tell Fourth Uncle that Licui can sense the tortoise’s location.”
iQll
Wang Shouzhe’s face darkened. Just as he finished saying that you’re an empty shell, you pull this stunt? This damned girl, is she naturally inclined to oppose him?
Wang Licui shrunk her neck, looking at Wang Shouzhe pitifully. Where did I provoke Fourth Uncle again?
“Haha, ignore your Fourth Uncle.” Wang Xiaohan was amused and pulled Wang Licui aside, “Little girl come, tell Your Sixth Great-Grandfather, where is the tortoise? Let’s see how Sixth Grandfather plucks it out and makes soup for you.”
At this, Wang Licui almost drooled, her spirits invigorated, “Sixth Great- Grandfather, it’s over there. It’s floating half a foot deep, sneakily listening to our conversation.” She pointed to a place several feet away.
Wang Xiaohan’s Spiritual Sense reached out in that direction and sure enough, he vaguely sensed the tortoise. He immediately leaped up and punched towards that location.
“BOOM!”
The lake exploded.
The figure of the fierce tortoise beast was revealed. It was stunned for a moment, and after enduring a punch, quickly dived back under. This time, it hid further away, burrowed in the mud.
“Sixth Great-Grandfather, it’s over there, hiding in the mud.” Wang Licui, manipulating the small boat, moved over and pointed at a spot.
This time, Old Ancestor Longyan swiftly flew over without waiting for Wang Xiaohan to move, launching a casual sword strike.
“Whoosh!”
The sword light flickered and the lake surface split as if cut by a knife, the water parting to both sides.
The entire depth of the lake, sludge and all, was exposed by this sword strike. The tortoise’s body was hidden in the sludge, revealing only half of its head, its eyes rotund and surprised.
Who am I? Where am I? Why can’t I see the water anymore?
But it ultimately was an ancient tortoise, and quickly burrowed rapidly in the sludge. In half a breath of time, it was back in the water.
“Splash!”
The separated water surface merged again, stirring up ripples. The tortoise disappeared again.
“This tortoise is quite clever.” Wang Shouzhe was taken aback. He had always thought that tortoises were slow and lollygagging creatures. He didn’t expect it could be so agile when fleeing for its life.
“Darn, it ran away.” Wang Licui said helplessly, “It went in that direction, let’s chase.”
But this time, when they caught up, the two Old Ancestors didn’t hastily act. If the tortoise truly wanted to escape in the water, they really didn’t have a good plan to stop it.
Moreover, after being outwitted several times, it became even craftier. Whenever people approached, it would hide even further away.
“It seems we can only call in Uncle Dinghai Six’s fishing team.” Wang Shouzhe reluctantly thought of a solution, but he wasn’t sure if those fishing nets could actually ensnare it.
