Chapter 30 Spirit Turtle Black Armor Sign
"Sir, there is indeed a strange thing." A guard grabbed the broken hand bone, "It seems that the second master had been holding this divination stick tightly before he died."
"Divination stick?" Gu Xiuyun frowned slightly and looked over quickly.
The divination stick is neither stone nor jade, and its color is dark, and it is filled with a faint spiritual power.
Taking the divination stick, Gu Xiuyun took a closer look. The body of the divination stick was engraved with strange patterns, many of which were dim, and only the middle one was still flashing with spiritual light.
"It turned out to be a black-shelled tortoise stick?" Gu Xiuyun's pupils shrank.
If it were someone else, he would definitely not recognize the origin of the divination stick, but he was a member of the Tianming clan in his previous life. What he did most in his life was fortune-telling, and he was particularly familiar with divination sticks.
The black-shelled tortoise stick was made of materials taken from the tortoise monster.
It is said that the tortoise has a long lifespan. After becoming a monster, it has lived for a longer time. Days accumulate under the moon, and the traces of the rules of heaven and earth are also imprinted on its back shell.
The success rate of deduction will be greatly increased by refining the black armor of the spirit turtle into a hexagram, so this kind of hexagram is the favorite of fortune tellers.
"As far as I know, the black armor spirit turtle will only increase one pattern on its back every hundred years of existence," Gu Xiuyun looked at the dark hexagram in front of him, which was covered with dense patterns, almost countless, "There are at least thousands of patterns on the hexagram. Where did the second uncle get it from?"
Thousands of patterns mean that the black armor spirit turtle has survived for 100,000 years. Even a pig should have become an immortal, let alone a spirit turtle?
Such a powerful monster was actually peeled and skinned and made into a hexagram, which is simply horrifying.
"After returning to the city, I have to investigate carefully to see where the second uncle has been recently?" Gu Xiuyun said in his heart.
As for the black armor of the spirit turtle in his hand, it still contains a faint spiritual power. It must be the means of the person who made the hexagram. Looking at the group of spiritual light, Gu Xiuyun's mouth corners slightly raised, and a trace of spiritual power probed into it.
It seemed to be pointing in a certain direction.
"It is true. Second uncle is looking for something with this sign as a guide."
It can be seen that this hexagram sign was indeed given by someone else. The spiritual light on the hexagram sign is the ironclad evidence. Although Second uncle's goal is unknown, as long as he walks to the end according to the spiritual light, he will naturally see it.
"There is no need to explore this thing for the time being. I'd better go there first!"
Gu Xiuyun put away the black-armored sign of the spirit turtle and continued to move forward with the guards.
Half a day later, they came to a huge swamp. The terrain here is low, and all the rivers in the surrounding mountains belong to this place. It cannot form a lake and can only maintain the swamp form.
Gu Xiuyun frowned slightly, silently pinched his fingers, and deduced the location of the ancient water jade.
The closer he got, the less interference he encountered in his deduction. He could even feel that the ancient water jade was within a few miles.
Suddenly, a rumble sounded from the depths of the swamp. Gu Xiuyun hurriedly retreated, but the guards around him could not dodge in time. They saw a phantom passing over the swamp water surface, and one of the guards disappeared.
"Evil beast, you are looking for death!"
Gu Xiuyun was immediately furious. He put his two fingers together, and a sword light burst out from his fingertips, piercing through the void and piercing into the depths of the swamp.
Puff!
A muffled sound came from the depths of the swamp, and soon bright red blood floated to the surface of the water. Gu Xiuyun frowned and shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone retreat immediately. This monster is very cunning. It is hiding under the swamp and waiting for an opportunity to attack."
The guards are all elites of the Gu family. Although they are afraid, they are not panicked at all. They retreat to the periphery of the swamp in an orderly manner.
On the water surface, only Gu Xiuyun is left.
Gugu!
Occasionally, bubbles floated on the water surface. The monster under the swamp seemed to be very patient and was not in a hurry to attack.
Although Gu Xiuyun was caught off guard at that moment, he still injured the opponent with his Refining Light Finger. If the monster surfaced again, Gu Xiuyun would definitely give it a thundering blow.
This monster was not stupid. After just a moment of confrontation, he knew that he was no match for Gu Xiuyun. However, it lived in the depths of the swamp for many years and was familiar with the terrain. If they continued to confront each other, they might not have no chance of winning.
Looking at the bubbles that occasionally emerged from the water, Gu Xiuyun's face was cold and his fingertips moved silently.
"Evil beast, do you think I can't find you if you don't show up?"
The bubbles in the water were irregular, but since they existed, it meant that the monster had been swimming under the swamp, so he could not escape his calculations.
Hundreds of feet away, the guards hid in the grass, occasionally looking up to peek at the scene on the surface of the swamp.
"This is the first time I've seen you so serious, sir. I wonder what kind of existence the monster under the swamp is?"
"When Zhang Fu was swallowed just now, I didn't even see the shadow of the monster. Even a Yuanling Ximai realm monster wouldn't be so fast. The one under the swamp is likely to be a Kaimai Guan realm monster." Wu Lao San said.
Kaimai Guan realm monster?
Everyone's heart was suddenly covered with a shadow. The shadow of a person's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. Kaimai Guan realm, no matter where it is placed, is a terrifying existence.
Moreover, this monster is so cunning that it knows how to hide in the swamp.
"Sir, is it its opponent?" A guard couldn't help asking.
No one could answer this question.
"We can wait here. Since you are staying in the swamp, you must be sure." Another guard thought for a moment before speaking.
At this moment, they can only pray that Gu Xiuyun successfully kills the monster, so that they can live out of the mountains and return to Youning City.
It is absolutely impossible for a few mortal warriors to walk out of 500 miles alive.
On the surface of the swamp, Gu Xiuyun's eyebrows were lowered. He seemed calm, but in fact he was extremely focused. He repeatedly pinched the fingertips of his left hand, following the changes in the bubbles, to deduce the true location of the monster.
The two fingers of his right hand were pressed together, and the sword light swayed faintly on the fingertips, as crystal clear as water drops, exuding a sharp edge.
Gu Xiuyun understood that the monster under the swamp was killing him. If he was targeted by such a monster, it would be impossible to escape. Even if he stayed away from the swamp, he would not be able to escape the pursuit.
.
The only solution is to kill it.
"Finally found you!"
After a moment, Gu Xiuyun's eyes flashed, and he fell directly into the water. He thrust the two fingers of his right hand into the depths of the mud.
Pfft.
There was a muffled sound, like the sound of scales being pierced.
Before the monster had time to dodge, another sword light pierced through its body. The swamp was suddenly filled with bright red, and the rich monster blood made the temperature of the lake water rise a few points.
"Roar!"
The monster beast was in great pain. Where could it hide anymore, it swung its huge tail and rushed out of the water.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Xiuyun's figure also rushed out of the swamp.
At this moment, one of the guards happened to look up and saw a huge two-foot-long lizard waving its tail and roaring angrily above the water.
In comparison, Gu Xiuyun's figure looked extremely small, but he kept waving his right hand, and the auras pierced the monster's body like sharp arrows.
Poof! Poof!
In front of the Light Refining Finger, the scale armor has no effect at all. Every thrust of the sword finger can penetrate the monster's body.
Roar!
The lizard monster held back the severe pain and tried to fight back, but it couldn't even touch Gu Xiuyun's body.
With Feng Bo Xing using his full strength, Gu Xiu Yun was as slippery as a loach. No matter how the lizard's tail waved, it could only land on his phantom.
"Bastard, let me see how long you can last?"
Gu Xiuyun's eyes flashed with cold light, and every sword finger almost landed on the lizard's vitals, either its head or its internal organs.
But this demon has turned on the pulse switch, and its vitality is extremely frightening. Even though four or five holes have been penetrated through its head, it is still roaring angrily and shows no signs of death.
"Is this the monster that opens the pulse level?"
Gu Xiuyun kept waving his hands, and his toes transformed into countless phantoms to avoid the bombardment of the giant tail. On the surface, he had the absolute upper hand, but his heart was extremely heavy.
The lizard monster's vitality is ridiculously strong. Even if it has more than a dozen sword fingers in its body, it is still incomparably brave. However, Gu Xiuyun's body is extremely fragile. As long as it is hit by the giant tail, it will be seriously injured.
"The gap in cultivation is really too big!"
Gu Xiuyun sighed in his heart.
After all, he was only in the early stage of the Yuanling Pulse Cleansing Realm, and the power of the secret method could not strengthen his physical body. The lizard monster had been around for who knows how many years, and coupled with his cultivation in the Pulse Opening Realm, his physical body was tempered to be extremely tough.
Even the most fragile part is far tougher than the cyan demon wolf's tail.
Facing this lizard monster, Gu Xiuyun seemed to be dancing on the tip of a knife. If he was careless in the slightest, he would be dead.
Fortunately, he was good at deduction. His right hand kept moving his light-refining fingers, while his left hand was hidden in his clothes, constantly deducing and calculating the movements of the monsters.
No matter how the monster's tail swung, he could always predict it in advance and dodge it.
If not, even if he had the Storm Escape Technique, he wouldn't be able to completely avoid the attack of the lizard monster.
