Chapter 186 Siege_2
A Tianluan Turtle, some ten zhang in size, made its way towards the entrance of the gorge, causing the smaller Tianluan Turtles scattered about to make way for it, seemingly fearful.
The largest Tianluan Turtle, though immense in size, was surprisingly agile, instantly shifting a hundred zhang to the side and appearing just outside the Myriad Flames Sky-Scorching Formation.
The gigantic Tianluan Turtle seemed to loathe the place, but at the sight of the Tianluan Grass in the dense mist, it became extremely excited.
However, this huge Tianluan Turtle was quite cautious. It stretched out its head, staring intently at the Tianluan Grass within the formation, neither stepping inside nor turning away.
This largest Tianluan Turtle was undoubtedly Third Order, its aura exceptionally strong and easily distinguishable.
Everyone held their breath at this moment, not daring to make a sound, quietly waiting for the Third Order Tianluan Turtle to enter the formation.
This was the first time Lin Tianming had seen a Third Order Demon Beast, especially one with such a long lifespan and remarkable resilience. He even thought that if he could subdue this Third Order Tianluan Turtle, his family wouldn't have to fear the Golden Elixir Forces for a thousand years.
But he quickly abandoned the idea: A Third Order Demon Beast wouldn't easily accept a master, and without the strength of the Golden Core Stage to suppress it, subduing it was impossible.
As he was lost in thought, the Third Order Tianluan Turtle made a move.
Perhaps the Third Order Tianluan Grass was too tempting for it. After pacing back and forth outside the formation, the Third Order Tianluan Turtle finally decided to swallow the grass.
All held their breath, waiting for the Third Order Tianluan Turtle to take that step.
Finally, the Tianluan Turtle raised its massive head, leading a few Second Order Tianluan Turtles into the formation, while the majority remained outside.
Just as everyone tensed up, the Third Order Tianluan Turtle moved at an astonishing speed, charged to the side of the Tianluan Grass, gulped it down, and then let out a satisfied roar.
Seeing the Third Order Tianluan Turtle enter the formation, Chu Jie and Xu Hua, among others, grew excited, waiting for Su Yunlong to give the signal to strike.
As the Third Order Tianluan Turtle entered the formation, an Array Plate flew out of Su Yunlong's hand, followed by several Law Decrees hitting it.
The light screen, which had previously dissipated, shone brightly once more, with colors even more vibrant than before.
"Boom rumble."
After a ground-shaking tremor, the Myriad Flames Sky-Scorching Formation was successfully activated before the Tianluan Turtles inside could react.
As the formation activated, the temperature within its embrace soared, and countless fireballs fell from the sky, pouring down towards the ground.
Under the fierce attack of the massive fireballs, the Tianluan Turtles started to dodge, but the fireballs were dense, and many Second Order Tianluan Turtles were hit, quickly getting injured.
The huge Third Order Tianluan Turtle, despite its speed, was still hit by some fireballs on its shell.
Yet these terrifying fireballs only left a tiny wound on its carapace, posing no threat to its life.
"Fellow cultivators, strike quickly!"
Chu Jie let out a loud shout and then leaped forward, heading towards the entrance of the gorge. Stay tuned for updates on My Virtual Library Empire
Behind him, a multitude of cultivators followed closely behind the juniors of the Six Major Golden Core Forces.
Lin Tianming and his companion symbolically followed suit, always staying alert.
More than ten breaths later, Chu Jie and the others arrived first at the formation, having rushed there at full speed.
Inside the formation, the Third Order Tianluan Turtle, greatly irritated, began to ram the Myriad Flames Sky-Scorching Formation while dodging the fireballs, leading its juniors.
In the time it took for them to arrive, the formation had already been struck several times by the Third Order Tianluan Turtle, each impact shaking the earth, teetering on the brink of collapse.
Seeing this, Su Yunlong quickly shouted:
"Everyone, act quickly to stop them from breaking out of the formation. Once they escape, it will be difficult to deal with this creature."
Before his words fell, Chu Jie, Xu Hua, and the others from the Golden Core Forces began to attack frantically.
With a wave of his robe, Chu Jie sent out a set of nine Circular Ring Artifacts, then cast several spells on them. The Nine Ring Artifacts rapidly enlarged and hurtled towards the Third Order Tianluan Turtle at lightning speed.
Xu Hua was not to be outdone. As the leader of Qingyun Valley, he couldn't let Chu Jie of Wei Kingdom take all the spotlight.
He slapped his storage bag, then pulled out a Spirit Sword gleaming with red light and brimming with Spiritual Energy, obviously also a Second Order Medium Quality Magic Artifact.
Injecting a great amount of Spiritual Power, the entire Spirit Sword flickered, slashing angrily toward the Third Order Tianluan Turtle inside the formation.
While the two took action, the remaining cultivators each made their move.
Lin Tianming took out an Earth Evil Sword. The pair launched a few symbolic attacks, not using even a third of their strength.
Many cultivators probably shared this mindset, as no one wanted to lead the charge or reveal their strength and methods.
Still, the combined attack of over a hundred cultivators was terrifying nonetheless.
For a moment, the entire formation was ablaze, various magic and spiritual artifacts emerged, and countless exotic attacks were unleashed, quickly engulfing the Third Order Tianluan Turtle.
"Boom rumble..."
Explosions rang out, darkening the sky within the formation.
The multitude of spells and attacks from Spirit Instruments washed over the area, and in just a moment, the Second Order Tianluan Turtles suffered horrific casualties, with nearly only those at the late phase of Second Order surviving, albeit injured.
