Chapter 357: Mystic Tortoise Carries the Double Pupil Demigod's Ultimate Masterpiece, Defying Destin
Chapter 357: Mystic Tortoise Carries the Double Pupil Demigod's Ultimate Masterpiece, Defying Destiny, Divine Craft's Fourth Transformation [Seeking Monthly Ticket] (Part 1)
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
Thunderbolts darted swiftly, and the dazzling golden lightning arcs seemed to explode from within the Twinheart Sage Temple Deity's statue in an instant.
Countless thunderbolts roared like thousands of birds suddenly screaming in the dense forest.
The entire ninth floor of the Eight-Angle Overhanging Dew Heaven Divination Treasure Tower was enveloped by the deafening roar of the thundering screams, illuminating the area with a bright light that weaved into a net, almost covering the entire floor.
It was as if time had frozen, and in the sky above, amidst the leaden clouds, the moment the spring thunder blossomed, a pause button was pressed, causing everything to stiffen and hover in midair.
Boom!
But this dazzling light was not profound; at the edge of the lightning arc, there was a layer of dark, glossy light, as if the intensely bright and luminous power had merged with the dead energy of the netherworld, intertwining and fusing together.
An extremely dense divine essence burst forth, and the divine essence of the temple deity within the entire Heaven Divination Bureau Treasury Tower boiled at this moment.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The howling wind roared, turbulent currents surged, and the sound of bursting and buzzing filled the air!
At the edge of the ninth floor.
Yue Taofu and Fang Shangzhen, the two Deputy Supervisors, had their wide-sleeved Daoist robes fluttering loudly, almost sticking tightly to their bodies.
Hong Shifo was even more astonished, carrying the chessboard on his back, his eyes wide, and he was shocked beyond belief.
"What...what kind of thunder is this?!"
Hong Shifo's hair flew wildly as he felt the intertwining thunderbolts, and he had the sensation of being frozen stiff.
It was as if inside the mud pill inner vision, the vast divine essence of the Divine Embryo Triple Transformation realm had been thoroughly solidified, like stirring a thick paste.
Just sensing the thunderbolts, he felt an overwhelming sense of impending doom!
There was even the illusion of heaven and earth being annihilated!
It was as if being struck by these thunderbolts could very likely lead to extinction and death!
"Three Calamities...Divine Heaven Lightning!"
Yue Taofu, who always wore a bright and innocent smile, now revealed a look of disbelief in his eyes.
"Although it's only a faint trace, it's indeed the genuine Divine Heaven Lightning!"
"Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations Divine Heaven Lightning!"
Yue Taofu, a renowned figure in the Divine Armament Canon, naturally understood what Divine Heaven Lightning was and how terrifying it could be.
He had never imagined that Divine Heaven Lightning would appear in the hands of a cultivator who had just broken through to the Divine Embryo realm.
"That Sacred Falcon..."
"There's actually Divine Heaven Lightning within the Twin-Hearted Great Sage Temple Deity's Sacred Falcon..."
Yue Taofu couldn't make sense of it.
The other Deputy Supervisor, Fang Shangzhen, also looked dumbfounded.
"This Divine Heaven Lightning seems to be controlled by a unique power, which then transformed it into a force that Li Che can control...no, not control, but rather, he's borrowing the power of the temple deity's Sacred Falcon to achieve this!"
"These Divine Heaven Lightning bolts seem to have formed a net, trapping the entire floor. Li Che intends to use this Divine Heaven Lightning...to restrict the Mystic Tortoise's movements!"
"Because the Mystic Tortoise keeps moving, it's very difficult for Li Che to observe and see through the Great Supervisor's misty aura. So, he must make the Mystic Tortoise stop!"
Deputy Supervisor Fang Shangzhen immediately understood Li Che's intention, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in his heart.
It could be said that this Special Guest Scholar Examination of Li Che's was undoubtedly one of the most challenging in history.
Not only did he have to carve the Great Supervisor, but he also had to carve the Great Supervisor while being carried by the Mystic Tortoise, which kept moving at extreme speeds.
It was indeed a hellishly difficult task!
However, Li Che had indeed found a solution...
Could he succeed?
The three of them, pushed by a powerful aura to the edge of the ninth floor, unwilling to interfere with the examination due to their presence, couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation in their hearts.
They genuinely hoped for Li Che's success.
Because only by succeeding could he live up to the stunning performance he had shown in the face of such a challenging examination!
...
...
"Prison Lightning Heavenly Net!"
Li Che's eyes blazed with intensity, locking onto the void, and a deep voice seemed to emanate from the depths of his throat.
Accompanied by the booming and crashing sounds, the words reverberated throughout the ninth floor.
His five fingers spread out, and he patted the head of the Twin-Hearted Great Sage Temple Deity's Sacred Falcon. The statue seemed to suddenly open its eyes, and a divine monkey's shadow seemed to emerge from within, bathed in thunderbolt armor, and leaped out of the statue.
The eyes of the divine monkey radiated a dazzling golden light, like the golden eyes of a furious monkey, piercing through illusions, staring into the void, and fixing its gaze on the flashing Mystic Tortoise!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—
The sound of the lightning arcs jumping was like a giant mythical spider crawling out of a thunder pool, weaving a massive spider web.
The spider web shimmered with lightning, spreading throughout the floor.
The Mystic Tortoise's lazy eyes suddenly widened, as it had an unprecedented fear of Divine Heaven Lightning. This thing hitting its shell...was truly painful for the tortoise!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—!
The Mystic Tortoise opened its mouth and emitted a deep, bell-like sound.
Then, its four legs began to move, creating numerous afterimages and releasing powerful qi and blood essence. The aura was almost purely martial, accompanied by dense and rolling dark-blue demonic energy.
This Mystic Tortoise was a Demigod-level Demon King, comparable to the top-tier Apex realm. At this moment, it chose to unleash its explosive power!
Boom—!
A sound like an electric mosquito swatter hitting a mosquito exploded!
Countless electric arcs sizzled and intertwined!
The Mystic Tortoise, carrying the Great Supervisor, collided with the Prison Lightning Heavenly Net, creating a loud crash. The terrifying impact burst forth with dazzling brilliance, and the space violently fluctuated as if about to shatter.
Wild winds raged, and the ejected thunderbolts resembled sharp spears, slamming into the walls of the Heaven Divination Bureau Treasury Tower, causing the walls to glow.
However, the powerful thunderbolt spears couldn't penetrate the tower; it was incredibly resilient, with unparalleled defense, akin to a top-tier divine armament!
Of course, Li Che didn't pay attention to these details at this moment.
Li Che's jet-black, robust hair fluttered in the wind, and his eyes seemed to have electric arcs dancing within them. He raised his hand and pressed it against his forehead, at the Mud Pill Palace.
Suddenly, he tore downward, and flesh and blood flipped outward, releasing a burst of golden light!
Divine Ability—
Divine Craft's Divine Pupil!
The Mystic Tortoise, carrying the Great Supervisor, collided with the Prison Lightning Heavenly Net, and in that instant, the Mystic Tortoise's movements noticeably stiffened!
And that moment...
Was exactly what Li Che needed!
The Divine Pupil burst forth, projecting its gaze, and with its eyes open or closed, it completely froze this moment in time.
Then, within the Heaven Earth Chessboard in its mind, it presented this frozen moment.
Like a holographic projection, the Heaven-Earth Soul floated above the Heaven-Earth Chessboard, abruptly opening its eyes and scanning the scene before it.
The image at this moment was of the Mystic Tortoise colliding with the Prison Lightning Heavenly Net, the Divine Heaven Lightning striking its shell, and instantly spreading, causing the Mystic Tortoise to wince in pain, its eyes wide, and its limbs contorting strangely.
On the Mystic Tortoise's back, the Grand Supervisor was enveloped in swirling white mist, but the mist also trembled violently, revealing a pair of deep and profound double pupils!
Double Pupils!
Li Che's Heaven-Earth Soul eyes suddenly brightened.
His mind returned.
Li Che, who was pressing his fingers on the head of the Temple Deity Divine Carving, suddenly released his hand. The various Divine Tool Chisels hovering around him spun like a windmill, held between his index and middle fingers, as if lightning had struck.
The blade's light transformed into a thunderous strike, landing on the Spirit Wood protruding from the Mystic Tortoise's mouth.
This was a high-quality Spirit Wood of the lower Four Virtues, shimmering like green jade, with flowing light within, as if it were a product of the turtle shell.
The lightning-like blade struck the Spirit Wood, causing sparks to fly and a resounding clang!
As Li Che began carving, the Mystic Tortoise broke free of the Prison Lightning Heavenly Net, its limbs moving in a rhythmic motion, and suddenly disappeared from the Heaven-Earth Chessboard.
Li Che, who was in the midst of carving, was startled, as if he had sensed something, and abruptly stopped his chisel, looking up.
He couldn't see any trace of the Mystic Tortoise.
But...
The Pure Heart Dao Fruit in Li Che's chest began to throb.
Pure Heart - Mystic Path!
Vaguely, Li Che seemed to see the Mystic Tortoise in another space, swimming like a fish in water, with its limbs moving in unison, carrying the Grand Supervisor on its back, and flashing away into the distance.
A smug expression appeared on the Mystic Tortoise's face, thinking that the Divine Heaven Lightning wouldn't be able to strike it again.
Although the Divine Embryo's transformation made the Divine Heaven Lightning very thin, it was still painful!
The Mystic Tortoise had no choice but to retreat into the netherworld.
Looking at Li Che, who was holding the chisel and preparing to carve the Spirit Wood, the Mystic Tortoise's face revealed a human-like "hehe" smile, as if it had a natural, lewd freedom.
Suddenly, the Mystic Tortoise's human-like lewd smile froze.
Its limbs moved slowly, as if leisurely swimming, circling around Li Che.
As it passed in front of Li Che, it noticed that Li Che's eyes were...
staring straight at the tortoise!
The Mystic Tortoise swam away, circling Li Che, but Li Che's gaze followed its graceful arc...
This person...
Can he see the tortoise?!
The Mystic Tortoise's eyes widened in shock and horror!
It was currently in the netherworld!
How could Li Che see it?!
The Grand Supervisor, sitting on the Mystic Tortoise's back, was surrounded by swirling white mist, and a faint laugh emerged.
"Interesting."
...
Li Che withdrew his gaze, and the chisel in his hand continued to fall.
The resounding sparks and flashes of lightning filled the air, but the Prison Lightning Heavenly Net had disappeared, and the Mystic Tortoise and the Grand Supervisor seemed to have vanished from the Heaven-Earth Chessboard.
Li Che knew that the tortoise had entered the netherworld.
This was a Mystic Tortoise that could travel between the netherworld and reality!
Li Che was certain that it wasn't the Grand Supervisor who had brought the Mystic Tortoise into the netherworld, but rather the Mystic Tortoise itself, carrying the Grand Supervisor with it.
It was as if this was an innate ability of the Mystic Tortoise!
"A demon..."
Li Che murmured.
This Mystic Tortoise was likely the first high-level demon he had encountered.
He had fought with the Temple Curse Corpses and demons in the Deceptive Demon Den, but those demons were of low rank.
This Mystic Tortoise was a Demon King!
"Does a Demon King possess special innate abilities?"
"Innate abilities similar to Divine Abilities?"
Li Che's heart stirred.
This Mystic Tortoise... could also travel through the Mystic Path!
At this moment, Li Che's curiosity peaked, and he even felt a strong urge to dissect the Mystic Tortoise to see its secrets!
He suddenly remembered how he had secretly thrown a Thunderbolt Chess Piece at the Third Prince earlier, and why the Mystic Tortoise had stared at him...
That gaze was similar to Xi Xi's when she eyed the dishes the boss cooked.
It was the gaze of a foodie!
This Grand Supervisor's Mystic Tortoise...
had smelled something delicious?
Was it staring intently because it wanted to eat... the Thunderbolt Chess Piece?
The essence of the Thunderbolt Chess Piece was the Pure Heart Divinity, which meant... this Mystic Tortoise craved Li Che's pure, clean, and unblemished) Pure Heart Divinity!
Li Che's eyes lit up.
However, these were just his speculations.
To test and try to lure away the Grand Supervisor's Mystic Tortoise, he would have to wait until later.
First, he needed to complete this Special Guest Scholar Examination.
Once he became a Special Guest Scholar at the Capital City Heaven Divination Bureau Headquarters, Li Che would have ample opportunities to interact with this high-ranking Mystic Tortoise Demon King, and with the allure of the Pure Heart Divinity...
luring it away would only be a matter of time.
Li Che's lips curled slightly, and the chisel in his hand once again glided across the Spirit Wood, sparking flying embers.
In his chest, the Divine Craft Dao Fruit continued to throb.
The image of the Mystic Tortoise being struck by lightning and carrying the Grand Supervisor, as reflected on the Heaven-Earth Chessboard, continued to play out, presenting a 360-degree view without any blind spots in his perception.
The Mystic Tortoise's panic, the Grand Supervisor's calmness, and the deep double pupils that emerged from the dissipating clouds...
all appeared in Li Che's mind.
Boom, boom, boom, boom—
The Divine Craft Dao Fruit throbbed continuously, like thunder rumbling in his ears!
The chisel in Li Che's hand kept changing, and the blade's light reversed, dazzling and captivating.
At this moment, Li Che's carving technique seemed to incorporate thunder techniques, dazzling and mesmerizing!
At this moment, Li Che's carving technique seemed to incorporate thunder techniques, becoming incredibly powerful. The divinity became increasingly intense, as if a misty fog was rising, and a terrifying aura and might intertwined, suppressing one's divinity.
The Spirit Wood in Li Che's hand was covered in countless lightning fires, sizzling and crackling, causing the divinity to boil!
The falling wood shavings ignited in mid-air, transforming into a terrifying divine pressure, as if a fearsome giant tortoise was straddling the Heaven-Earth Chessboard, opening its eyes and roaring fiercely!
This was the power of the Spirit Wood's inherent divinity.
