Chapter 4: The Man Arrives, the Turtle is Unfazed

  "Oh no, oh no, murder! Someone's killing a tortoise!"

  A shrill cry echoed through the vast and endless primeval forest, sounding particularly jarring! The cry was filled with terror, a blood-curdling scream, and just a hint of desperation!

  On the edge of the purple light screen, Xiao Gu grabbed Lao Wang Ba and almost put him outside the light screen. Before that, Xiao Gu had tried it out - this light screen blocked others from entering but wouldn't stop anyone from leaving, which meant Xiao Gu could send Lao Wang Ba away at any time!

  And outside, there were countless ferocious beasts that had been starving for a long time!

  Lao Wang stubbornly refused to reveal the way out, and Xiao Gu kicked and struggled in vain. However, when Lao Wang was triumphantly shouting, he suddenly got an inspiration!

  "Old Wang Ba, are you going to say it or not?" Xiao Gu pushed his body forward, and his eyes were about to break through the light curtain!

  A ferocious beast suddenly opened its big mouth and bit over! The stinky saliva almost dripped onto the old turtle's head! At the same time, many beasts were roaring, all staring at Lao Wangba with menacing eyes!

  "I know you're as tough as nails, and these beasts won't find it easy to take a bite out of you. But don't worry, I'll let you out halfway, and they can chew on you slowly. They'll get their fill eventually, no rush, no rush. I'm sure they've been starving for a long time too!" Xiao Gu chuckled to himself.

  "I, you turtle grandpa's, this turtle will absolutely not surrender, absolutely not surrender, not surrender," Old Wang Ba's voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke, it was more like he was trying to encourage himself rather than saying it for Xiao Gu to hear.

  "Heh heh," Xiao Gu's eerie smile, and then his hand shook!

  Just as Lao Wang Ba's body passed through the purple light curtain, at least a dozen big mouths bit over together. Although Xiao Gu withdrew his hand quickly, Lao Wang Ba still felt that disgusting stench! And after biting empty air, there was the sound of upper and lower teeth clashing!

  It's obvious that these beasts bite very hard!

  "Good grief, you little scamp, this is murder, outright murder of a turtle's life!"

  Old Wang got anxious!

  "How about it, are you going to answer or not? If you don't answer, I'll really let you out and let these big guys take a bite first. Anyway, you won't have any problems for a while," Xiao Gu's smiling face made Lao Wang Ba want to take a bite!

  "Alright, kid, you win. Your turtle grandpa admits defeat. However, you must agree to two conditions from your turtle grandpa, otherwise, I'll never give in!" Old Wang Ba said fiercely.

  "Hmm, let me think," Xiao Gu said, stroking his chin with one hand.

  "Firstly, you are no longer allowed to call Tortoise Grandfather a turtle, you can call him Tortoise Grandfather or Old Tortoise. Secondly..."

  "Oh no! You little scamp, you don't keep your word......" Clang, shout!

  "Scrub, you little scoundrel, how dare you send your turtle grandfather to the mouth of that disgusting beast! I spit on you, looking so ugly and yet daring to disrespect your turtle grandfather. You'll be stewed sooner or later!" Old Wang Ba shouted at a giant saber-toothed leopard with shattered teeth outside the screen.

  "Old Wang Ba, you really are made of bronze and iron! This fierce beast is powerless against you, and it even broke a mouthful of teeth," Xiao Gu said with a smile.

  "Alright, kid, you win, but on one condition: from now on, don't call me 'turtle' again," the old turtle said weakly.

  "What's that? Old turtle? Or king egg?" Xiao Gu muttered to himself.

  "Stop, stop, from now on I'll call you Turtle Grandpa Greedy Heaven Ancestor!" Old Wang Ba hurriedly stopped him, afraid that Xiao Gu would give him another name that would make people's teeth ache!

  "Presumptuous? You really dare to think," Xiao Gu didn't say anything, "It's time to leave now!"

  "Of course, once the ancestral transmission array pattern is carved," then you can leave.

  "Alright, hurry up," Xiao Gu urged with a somewhat ominous feeling.

  Lao Wang Ba, no, it should be called greedy now. At this time, he is engraving something on the ground. Xiao Gu tries to remember it, but finds that there seems to be a mysterious power erasing all traces!

  Half a response later, Xiao Gu got nothing and had no choice but to give up!

  The pattern of Tian Tian's array was extraordinary, the Great Dao imprint was not flashing with a terrifying light, as if it wanted to cut through the nine heavens, it was carved with great difficulty, and only half of it was completed in half a day!

  "No!" However, just as the array was about to be completed and they were about to leave, suddenly, a heaven-shaking and earth-shattering roar came, filled with grief and indignation!

  A figure like a shooting star, just a moment ago still far away in the sky, blinked and suddenly appeared right before one's eyes!

  This was an old man dressed in white, with a head full of silver hair, a sturdy build, and a ruddy complexion. Judging from his appearance, he looked to be around sixty or seventy years old, but Xiao Gu knew that he must be far older than that. The age of a cultivator could never be judged by their appearance!

  However, this book should be accompanied by a peaceful and calm old man who has seen the prosperity of the world. At this time, he is furious, with an extremely ferocious face, plus blood-red eyes and inverted white hair, looking like a bloodthirsty Asura!

  "Little one, you, you ate it, you actually ate him!" Pfft! In a fit of rage, the old man suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and scattered blood flowers flew everywhere, extremely tragic and beautiful!

  Many ferocious beasts seemed to have encountered something terrifying when they saw the old man, and retreated in horror! Only the strongest crocodile-like dragon among them pounced on him viciously!

  A hundred-zhang giant body crushed the void, its violent power sent countless other beasts flying, the ground sank, ancient trees fell, and even several small mountain ranges in the distance collapsed under this terrifying aura! Rolling up a vast expanse of smoke and dust!

  Even with the protection of the purple light screen, Xiao Gu felt an unimaginable terror that made his face turn pale and his muscles tremble, and even with his terrifying physical body and magical powers, he couldn't resist the slightest bit of aura that seeped in!

  It seems I underestimated these barbarians! Xiao Gu thought to himself in dismay.

  According to his idea, if there was really no other way out in the end, he would take a risk and rush out. His strong physique and vast magical powers gave him some confidence!

  However, after seeing the terrifying power of the dragon, he realized how naive his thoughts were!

  At the same time, he also found that the purple light curtain might not be able to hold on for much longer, seemingly due to the disappearance of the purple plants!

  At the beginning, Jiaolong and many other fierce beasts joined forces but couldn't give Xiao Gu a feeling of oppression. Now, only Jiaolong is enough to make him hard to bear, this shows that the light curtain has been greatly weakened!

  Pfft!

  Facing the terrifying impact of the Jiaolong, a hint of disdain flashed in the old man's blood-red eyes, and with a slight flick of his finger, a faint green light flashed and disappeared into the Jiaolong's brain!

  Rumble!

  The body of the dragon that rose into the air fell heavily, causing a landslide and earthquake-like tremors! On the small mountain-like head of the dragon, a blood hole the size of a bowl appeared, with blood gushing out rapidly!

  So strong, Xiao Gu sucked in a breath of cold air!

  Jiaolong, although not a true dragon, also has some characteristics of the dragon clan. The skull is one of the hardest places, but even so, it was killed by the old man with a single finger. So how strong is this old man!

  "Come out, young one," the old man said with bloodshot eyes staring at Xiao Gu.

  "Senior, I'm afraid that once I come out, you'll destroy me," Xiao Gu said bluntly.

  "You little brat, you swallowed the treasure of my Medicine Emperor's Hall. Don't you think you should pay the price? I won't make it difficult for you, I'll just imprison you for 10,000 years and take your blood. If you're still alive after 10,000 years, I'll let you go!" The old man said coldly.

  Xiao Gu's heart was extremely anxious, and he repeatedly urged Tiankuai to quickly complete the grand formation!

  "Hey, that farting white tortoise, this kid is your turtle grandfather's, as for you, wherever it's cool, just stay there!" Greedy Heaven slowly and deliberately carved the array pattern, carelessly scolding the white-robed elder.

  "Huh? Where did this turtle come from?" The old man's gaze condensed and turned towards Greedy Sky, but with his divine sense, he surprisingly didn't notice at first!

  "Turtle, who are you scolding? You're the turtle, your whole family is turtles, and all eighteen generations of your ancestors are turtles!" Greedy Hei had never been one to back down from a fight, not even when faced with the terrifying White-Robed Old Man. His verbal abuse knew no bounds.

  "Alright, alright," the old man stopped talking and instead formed a series of intricate hand seals that struck the purple light screen. In an instant, the purple light screen dispersed another thin layer!

  "It's terrible! He has unsealed the seal of humanity, and only the part created by heaven and earth remains!" Xiao Gu was shocked and lost his color.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  The old man took out a ten-zhang-high medicine cauldron and began to heavily pound the remaining purple light curtain, each strike causing the purple light curtain to shake violently!

  "Elder, why must you be so stubborn? We're in the middle of nowhere, who knows if this fruit belongs to you?" Xiaogu tried to persuade the old man.

  Pfft! The old man spat out another mouthful of blood, "Desolate wilderness? You call this desolate wilderness? This is the most secretive small world within my Medicine Emperor's Palace. Since I obtained it back then, no one has ever entered, except for those from the Medicine Emperor's Palace!"

  Good grief! Xiao Gu was shocked!

  "Or I'll compensate you with something else," Xiao Gu said with a bitter smile.

  "Compensation? Can you afford to compensate? This one-of-a-kind treasure in the world, what can you use to compensate for it?" The old man roared in anger, at the same time forcing out a few drops of vital blood to infuse into the medicine cauldron, increasing the attacking power by several degrees!

  "The whole family of that white-clothed thing is a bunch of old turtle's goods, go back to where you came from! You damned thing, this clearly belongs to your turtle grandfather, and he hasn't even settled accounts with this little brat yet, what are you yelling about!" Greedy Heaven shouted loudly.

  "Shut up and hurry up with the array pattern!" Xiao Gu was really anxious, looking at it again for another ten or so strokes, the light screen would shatter!

  "Don't worry," although Greedy Sky said it lightly, his speed in setting up the formation had increased significantly!

  Roar! The old man was also anxious, his vital energy surged out like it was worthless, the medicinal cauldron's attack grew stronger and stronger! It seemed he had gone all out!

  "Hurry up!" Xiao Gu urged.

  Greedy Sky has transformed into a residual shadow, quickly drawing an array of textures!

  Puff, the old man also saw his move and spat out another mouthful of blood. As this mouthful of blood was spat out, the old man's originally ruddy face suddenly turned pale, clearly injuring his vital energy!

  Crack! A crisp sound, so clear at this moment! A crack appeared on the purple light screen!

  The last barrier has been broken!
