"Wu Zhi Dao, it's actually you. How did you get here? Hurry up and come over," Jiang Buhui exclaimed in surprise.
"So it’s you people from the Yunxing Sect. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?" Wu Yang questioned angrily.
"Explanation? What explanation? You saw everything that happened back then. How could I possibly tip you off? Besides, even if I did, would only one person come?"
"Hehe, thank you, Brother Jiang. However, I'm only representing myself this time," Wu Zhi Dao shook his head and then asked with a relaxed smile, "I wonder what the three of you think? Should we cooperate?"
"Cooperate? Just based on you? Looking at your strength, you're about on par with us. If the three of us can't do anything, what can you do?" Wu Yang asked skeptically, harboring deep hostility towards this sudden appearance.
"This matter isn't just about who is stronger. If it were purely about strength, I’m afraid no one in this Canglan Secret Realm could deal with that Earth Armor Turtle. My method is a unique secret recipe that others can't replicate." His words dispelled any other thoughts in the minds of the others.
"I don't mind. If you can really do it, I can give you a piece of turtle shell," Su Xu glanced at the distant Earth Armor Turtle and agreed.
"I can also consider it. After all, you're a disciple of the Yunxing Sect. If you can do it, I'll let you have a piece," Jiang Buhui also expressed his stance, though he felt somewhat displeased. This inner sect disciple ranked below him not only showed little respect but also wanted to take all the benefits for himself.
However, for the sake of the Xuan-level technique, they had no choice but to endure it since they were helpless against that Earth Armor Turtle.
Wu Yang's expression changed repeatedly; in the end, he seemed to think of something and agreed expressionlessly.
"Wu Zhi Dao really has a way to deal with that Earth Armor Turtle; it's quite surprising. This person is indeed not simple!" Ren Pingsheng thought in astonishment while hiding at a distance.
He had arrived shortly after Wu Zhi Dao and had been concealed all along. After seeing the three dealing with the Earth Armor Turtle, he couldn't help but frown. Such formidable defense was something he had never seen before; even if he exerted all his strength, he wouldn’t have much confidence against it. Unless...
Suddenly, a long sword gleaming with cold light appeared in Ren Pingsheng's hand, with mysterious halos flowing over it. This was the magic sword he had obtained from the Disciples of the Evil Sect and had never used before. After all, this item was too eye-catching; taking it out would surely attract endless trouble.
"If this magic sword combined with the Seven Star Sword Technique can truly break through that Earth Armor Turtle's defense, then I might be able to obtain one or two pieces of turtle shell." Watching the four prepare to act again, his gaze shifted back to the still motionless hillock. Looking at those pieces of turtle shell made his heart burn with desire.
"Alright, just tell us your method. If we waste any more time, we don’t know who else might show up!" Wu Yang said pointedly, not fully trusting Wu Zhi Dao.
"Actually, it's quite simple. Although the Earth Armor Turtle's defense is formidable, it has a preference for a spiritual herb called Fire Sun Flower. This herb doesn't have much effect on us but helps it enhance its cultivation. However, there’s a fatal flaw: after consuming the Fire Sun Flower, its defense will greatly decrease to about one-third of its original power."
"What? How is that possible! If its defense is only at one-third now, we definitely have a chance." The expressions of the three changed upon hearing this. They hadn’t expected such secret knowledge; they had never heard of it before.
"Where did you learn this? How come we've never heard of such secrets?" Sure enough, their excitement lasted only a few breaths before suspicion and curiosity returned to their gazes fixed on Wu Zhi Dao.
"Haha, I just saw it in an ancient book, and I didn't expect it to come in handy today." Wu Zhi Dao observed the expressions of the three and casually found an excuse to brush it off.
"Whether it works or not, you three will see for yourselves." He flipped his hand and took out a fiery red spirit herb that shimmered with a rich glow. At the top was a small red flower emitting a strange scent, and the temperature around it was noticeably higher.
"This is the Fiery Sunflower?" The three of them carefully examined it, committing its appearance to memory, thinking it might be useful in the future. They also became more convinced about this matter.
"Yes, this is the Fiery Sunflower. This thing is quite rare; you really won't encounter it without some luck. Now step back a bit; I'll draw it out." Wu Zhi Dao explained lightly, though his intentions were unclear. The three didn't dwell on it too much and moved away.
Wu Zhi Dao was not far from the Earth Armored Turtle when he dug a hole and planted the Fiery Sunflower. Then he took out a porcelain bottle and poured something onto it. The Fiery Sunflower seemed to drink nectar; its wilted petals immediately perked up. It swayed in the wind, and the strange scent became even more intense.
Everyone had retreated quite a distance, watching as the Fiery Sunflower swayed in the breeze. The small hill in the distance lay still, without any movement. The atmosphere was eerily quiet.
"You’re not tricking us, are you? Why is there still no reaction?" After a moment, Wu Yang asked with an unfriendly expression.
"Don't worry; once the Earth Armored Turtle falls asleep, it won't wake up unless it's in danger. Even with the attraction of the Fiery Sunflower, it will take some time," Wu Zhi Dao said calmly while staring into the distance.
"I'm not worried; we have no other options. Let's wait and see," Su Xu advised, which made Wu Yang reluctantly quiet down.
Suddenly, the ground trembled lightly, causing all four to look up with excitement, their eyes fixed on the small hill that had just shaken.
The Earth Armored Turtle woke up again, but this time its eyes were filled with excitement. When it looked at the Fiery Sunflower not far away, it let out several joyful roars.
Seeing this scene, Wu Yang and the others knew they had a chance. While secretly delighted, they all held their breath, staring intently so as not to miss anything.
The ground shook more violently as the Earth Armored Turtle rushed toward the Fiery Sunflower at top speed without hesitation and swallowed it whole. Then it let out a proud roar as a red light flashed across its body.
"Don't rush; wait for a moment before taking action. Right now, the Earth Armored Turtle is digesting the herb's effects. The more it digests, the weaker its defenses will become. But remember, we only have half an hour. After that, the Earth Armored Turtle will fully recover."
Wu Zhi Dao stopped the three who were ready to act and explained in detail. "By the way, I added something to the Fiery Sunflower earlier. As long as you smell this potion in my hand, the effects of the Fiery Sunflower will disappear immediately! Its defenses will return to normal."
"Cough cough! Such an important item should be kept safe; if something goes wrong, we’ll be at a disadvantage," Wu Yang said with a stern expression and an unfriendly tone.
Perhaps he had just entertained thoughts of killing earlier, but now he dared not act rashly. No one knew whether his words were true or false, but for the sake of the Profound-Level Cultivation Method, no one was willing to take risks. The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.
"Alright, we can start now. We only have half an hour, so let's be quick." Wu Zhi Dao's words broke the previous atmosphere, and their gazes refocused on the Earth Armored Turtle, which was intermittently glowing red and yellow, its aura fluctuating unpredictably.
The four did not hesitate; whether the defense was real or not would be revealed once they made their move.
"Roar!" The Earth Armored Turtle let out an angry roar upon seeing the four of them, as if it had encountered a sworn enemy. It raised its sturdy limbs and lunged forward with incredible speed. A gust of wind rushed toward them, closing in rapidly.
The four drew their swords and dodged. Each strike landed on the Earth Armored Turtle's limbs.
"Haha, the defense has indeed decreased significantly." Wu Yang and the others realized this as soon as they struck. Although there were still no visible wounds, the sensation was completely different now. If before it felt like striking steel, now it felt like hitting hard stone. With just a bit more power, the Earth Armored Turtle's defense would collapse entirely.
"This is great news; let's not hold back any longer." The four stopped testing and unleashed their full strength. The flying Sword Lights continuously attacked the Earth Armored Turtle. The scales on its limbs gradually could not withstand the assault and began to shatter, with streams of blood seeping out.
"We've succeeded; the Earth Armored Turtle's defense is no longer an issue. Let's finish it off quickly and use its blood to cleanse the Tortoise Shell for the cultivation method." Jiang Buhui shouted excitedly. This resolved what had been a frustrating situation for them, and they were about to obtain the Profound-Level Cultivation Method. Even with their composure, they couldn't hide their joy!
"Roar!" Continuous injuries were unimaginable for the Earth Armored Turtle, which filled it with rage. Its limbs flailed wildly, and its massive head swung back and forth, its sharp teeth causing significant trouble for the four attackers.
However, its speed remained a critical flaw; even though it posed some danger, the four managed to evade using their Movement Technique. Without its defense, the Earth Armored Turtle was merely a resilient Fierce Beast. The outcome was predictable.
"Roar!" Wu Zhi Dao and his companions' swords carved a long and deep wound across the Earth Armored Turtle's neck. The outer scales had already shattered from the relentless strikes. The severe injury caused it to lose its rationality as it flailed its limbs and head wildly in an attempt to keep them at bay.
Yet, due to the violent thrashing, the wound on its neck began to widen further. Blood gushed forth like a fountain, causing its movements to slow down increasingly and grow weaker.
