The entire stone cave shook, as if an earthquake was occurring. The red-haired mink transformed into a red shadow and disappeared after a few flashes.
Only the sinister voice of True Person Huang Yun echoed.
"Since you don't abide by the agreement between our two races, then stay here. Moreover, this尊 observes that your cultivation level seems a bit off. Could it be that you've suffered severe injuries and your cultivation has declined?"
Feeling the tremors beneath him and the changes in the surrounding spiritual energy, the Second Primordial Spirit knew that True Person Huang Yun had made his move.
As the stone cave shook, the spiritual mist drifting within began to circulate, forming a dense spiritual force barrier that enveloped the entire cave. It seemed that all the array formations and restrictions here had been activated.
Roar~
The Xuan Turtle roared angrily, its aura suddenly surging. Its already large body expanded again, transforming into a creature over twenty zhang tall in the blink of an eye, filling most of the cave. It only stopped when its body pressed against the array formation barrier.
The array formation barrier outside flowed rapidly like clouds and mist, then transformed into streaks of cyan-black lightning that shot out from within, striking the Xuan Turtle and creating a series of booming sounds.
The Xuan Turtle was suppressed by the lightning and stopped growing. However, it didn't suffer much damage. A layer of icy mist emanated from the Xuan Turtle's body, blocking the lightning attacks.
In fact, with the Xuan Turtle's physical strength, even if these lightning strikes hit its body directly, they wouldn't cause too much damage. Moreover, the Xuan Turtle had extremely strong regenerative abilities, allowing it to recover quickly even if injured.
However, under the Second Primordial Spirit's senses, it realized that trying to break through this barrier directly with the Xuan Turtle's physical body was being suppressed by the array formation's pressure.
"You should give up. This great array is connected to my Flying Cloud Gate's spiritual veins. Although it doesn't have much offensive power, it can still trap you, an injured Rank 8 demon beast, for a while. This old man's true body will return here in a moment. What will your situation be then? Haha..." The ethereal voice came from all directions, belonging to True Person Huang Yun's wisp of divine sense. It seemed that he had him cornered.
The Second Primordial Spirit also felt some pressure. Relying on his senses, he instantly discovered that the red-haired mink was currently perched on that huge stalactite.
The Second Primordial Spirit snorted coldly and spat out a ball of幽 blue ice mist, shooting out ice thorns towards that direction. With a series of bangs, the red-haired mink didn't dodge or evade, and its eyes revealed a human-like look of contempt.
These attacks landed on the stone pillar and were blocked by a layer of spiritual light. Seeing that the attacks were ineffective, the Second Primordial Spirit didn't make any extra moves.
The immediate priority was to find a way to escape from this place. If this person's true body returned, facing an old monster in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, he wouldn't have much chance of winning.
The Xuan Turtle's mouth flashed with blue light, looking like it was about to unleash an attack. However, the spiritual power continued to gather without immediately releasing the attack. If someone could enter the Xuan Turtle's mouth, they would see a black-blue bead rapidly rotating, releasing streams of spiritual power.
This bead was the Xuan Turtle's original Rank 8 demon core, and it was currently operating at its peak. It planned to mobilize all the spiritual power within the Xuan Turtle's body to unleash a full-force attack to break open this restriction.
The Second Primordial Spirit had been controlling the Xuan Turtle for several years. It had only mobilized all of its spiritual power a few times before. However, before, it could only mobilize about 60% of the spiritual power within the Xuan Turtle's body, and the demon core couldn't be fully activated.
Zhang Ling guessed that this might be because he hadn't been controlling the Xuan Turtle for long enough, and they hadn't fully synchronized.
But after several years of training, the Second Primordial Spirit could now control 70-80% of its spiritual power. With the help of the demon core, a full-force attack would definitely not be weaker than an attack from a transformed demon beast.
A moment later, the Xuan Turtle raised its head, and a thick blue beam shot out from its mouth, directly hitting the rock wall above, creating a crisp bang.
It didn't seem very powerful. But then, blue light flashed above, turning into a large sheet of frost, instantly spreading throughout the cave, turning this place into a snowy scene.
Even the array formation barrier covering the surroundings seemed to be frozen, and its operating speed decreased a lot. The Xuan Turtle didn't hesitate at all and transformed into a ball of black light, crashing into it fiercely.
For a time, the ground shook and the mountains swayed. The entire cave seemed to be on the verge of collapsing, and countless rocks fell down.
The Xuan Turtle swayed and landed on the ground again, shaking its head a few times. A huge dent had been created where it had crashed, and the rock wall there was cracked, but the array formation barrier covering it hadn't disappeared. It just flickered a few times and quickly recovered.
The Second Primordial Spirit's mood plummeted. He didn't expect that such a powerful attack would be resolved so easily. It seemed that breaking this array with one strike was impossible, so he could only try another method.
He immediately adjusted his strategy, controlling the Xuan Turtle to wrap itself in a thick layer of icy cold mist, rotating its entire body, and crashing into the same spot repeatedly.
Each time it crashed, a layer of frost appeared on that piece of the array formation barrier. With another crash, the array formation barrier began to flicker again. For a time, only a series of rumbling sounds could be heard.
The red-haired mink, perched on the rock pillar, coldly watched this scene. True Person Huang Yun, attached to the spirit beast, had great doubts in his heart. Although it was only a wisp of divine sense, based on his experience, he could tell that this Xuan Turtle was very strange.
The spiritual pressure on the Xuan Turtle's body did belong to the level of a transformed demon beast, but its aura fluctuated, sometimes strong and sometimes weak. It seemed to be caused by severe injuries. But generally speaking, even injured transformed demon beasts rarely directly reveal their original form to attack.
Because for transformed demon beasts, after passing the transformation tribulation, the human form they transform into is not weaker than the demon beast's original form. It's more convenient to fight in human form. Some transformed demon beasts even learn skills such as alchemy and artifact refinement, and they also use magic treasures to attack. They are often a bit stronger than human cultivators of the same rank.
Only a small number of transformed demon beasts have special abilities that require them to reveal their full strength in their original form.
But the Xuan Turtle in front of him, other than its dense icy cold spiritual power, didn't seem to be using any special abilities. Why was it constantly attacking with its original form? This made True Person Huang Yun unable to understand.
In his opinion, this Xuan Turtle's attacks were too simple, as if it wasn't very familiar with its original form.
This kind of attack method is generally only seen in some newly transformed demon beasts. Could it be that this demon had just transformed not long ago and suffered a serious injury?
True Person Huang Yun judged the Xuan Turtle's strength. But regardless of whether this demon had suffered a serious injury or not, it was a good thing for him.
In a while, his true body would return here, and then this demon would be a prey delivered to his door. The materials from a transformed demon beast are also rare materials for them Nascent Soul old monsters.
Just then, with a loud bang.
The Xuan Turtle's huge body crashed into the array formation barrier. That piece of the array formation barrier, which had already been flickering, was now dented even further, and some fine cracks had appeared.
The Second Primordial Spirit within the Xuan Turtle's body was overjoyed at this scene, and transformed into a giant piece of ice again, attacking.
Under his senses, the power of the array formation here had suddenly decreased by a small half for some reason. Although he didn't know what the situation was, whether the array formation had malfunctioned or for other reasons, now was not the time to think too much. This kind of opportunity wouldn't come often.
With continuous attacks, the cracks on the array formation barrier grew larger and larger, showing a tendency to be broken through.
