World Stone Shattered
The Chi Turtle, enraged by its missed attack, roared so loudly that it churned the entire sea.
It saw greed and desire in these people's eyes, and it wanted to kill them all.
The roar of the Chi Turtle carries a soul-destroying power, causing a buzzing in the minds of those who hear it, as if countless ghostly wails are echoing within.
In the blink of an eye, the Li Family, who had come with great ambition, were forced to retreat step by step under the attack of the Chi Turtle, fighting and fleeing.
"That damned beast, it's gone mad!" Li Jiuxiao was practically spitting blood. First it was Yi Yun, and now this Chi Turtle!
It was clearly Yi Yun who provoked the Chi Turtle, yet the Chi Turtle is targeting them and attacking them; it's simply outrageous.
This beast is ridiculously strong; it has cultivated for countless millennia. People like Li Yunshang are no match for it. Only Li Jiuxiao can barely contend with it.
Moreover, by this time, they had already suffered casualties. One of the Li Family disciples was unable to dodge in time and was grazed by the edge of the Chi Turtle's claw. He instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist, without even having time to scream, and his body was completely destroyed.
Seeing this scene, the elites of the Li Family felt a chill run down their spines.
At this moment, the World Stone on the Chi Turtle made a cracking sound again, and a larger crack appeared.
An even stronger medicinal aroma wafted out from it, filling the air with its fragrance.
The herb garden is now fully open!
Hiding in the back, Li Yunshang's eyes flashed, and she quickly shouted, "Uncle! Don't get entangled with this beast! Find a way to get into the herb garden, or it will be too late!"
"Fine!" Li Jiuxiao gave the Chi Turtle a gloomy look, slapped it hard with his palm, and then quickly took a few steps back before pulling out a long whip from his Space Ring.
As Li Jiuxiao swung the long whip, the surrounding space seemed to be torn apart.
"This is the God Slaying Whip! Today, I'll let you, you beast, taste its power!"
Li Jiuxiao roared and lashed out with his whip.
The whip emitted a sharp whistling sound, creating a terrifying crack in the air before crashing directly into the Chi Turtle.
The Chi Turtle let out a deafening roar, stirring up the seawater. The seawater in the entire inner sea seemed to be swept up from the sea, obscuring the entire sky. The entire night sky was like an inverted ocean, which then crashed down hard on Li Jiuxiao and the others.
With a deafening roar, the whip collided with the ocean.
The sheer amount of energy tremor alone caused the Li Family's elites, including Li Yunshang, to bleed from their mouths and noses.
However, at that moment, Li Yunshang revealed a sinister expression.
Li Jiuxiao sneered, "A beast is a beast. You've been fooled."
The whip collided with the seawater and instantly turned into a bluish-purple liquid, completely merging into the seawater.
"You're so stupid, how could you have imagined that the God Slaying Whip isn't a weapon at all, but rather an unparalleled poison refined from countless poisons of my Li Family?" Li Yunshang said coldly.
The moment the "God Slaying Whip" merged into the seawater, it immediately spread out.
The Chi Turtle immediately sensed the change in the seawater. At the same time, a large number of sea fish and some low-level ferocious beasts floated to the surface with their white bellies up.
Their bodies had already decomposed rapidly, demonstrating the potency of the poison.
The Chi Turtle was terrified and furious, feeling its own power rapidly draining away.
"Uncle, let's act quickly," Li Yunshang said.
It's impossible to kill the Chi Turtle with poison alone. No matter how strong the poison is, it will gradually lose its effectiveness after being diluted by so much seawater.
However, there's no need for them to fight this Chi Turtle to the death right now; all they need to do is get into the herb garden.
As for this Chi Turtle, as long as it remains in this inner sea, Li Yunshang has already secretly decided that she will definitely bring the Li Family back again, dismember it into eight pieces, use every part of it for medicine, eat its flesh, and drink its blood!
And Yi Yun, he'll go in and find Yi Yun right away, and then make him regret ever being born!
The mere thought of Yi Yun filled both Li Yunshang and Li Jiuxiao with murderous intent. As members of the Wu Ling Clan, they enjoyed all the privileges in Martial City and had never been so thoroughly manipulated by a Mortal Clan.
"Walk!"
Li Jiuxiao blocked the way of the Chi Turtle and roared.
"Follow me!" Li Yunshang immediately took the lead and rushed to the front.
The elite Li Family followed closely behind.
"Aww!"
The Chi Turtle roared again, but Li Jiuxiao struck it with a palm, and the tortoise, paralyzed, was unable to dodge and was hit hard on the head.
The Chi Turtle immediately let out a mournful cry.
"You beast, you can't stop me now!" Li Jiuxiao sneered.
When the poison hit the water, the Chi Turtle was the first to be affected, and it would take time for it to recover.
Now it could only watch helplessly as they entered the Ancient Medicine Garden.
Once they entered the Ancient Medicine Garden, the Chi Turtle was helpless against them.
Seeing the World Stone right in front of her, Li Yunshang's face lit up with joy, and she rushed straight in.
"They're in!"
Li Yunshang and the elites of the Li Family finally entered the herb garden.
"This is the Ancient Medicine Garden..."
Smelling the abundant aroma of medicinal herbs and sensing the rich Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi here, Li Yunshang couldn't help but smile.
He had put in a lot of effort for this medicinal herb garden, and now his wish had finally come true.
"Hmm... that's... Yi Yun?"
Li Yunshang spotted a figure in the distance.
Besides them, the only other person appearing in this Ancient Medicine Garden was Yi Yun!
"Let's take down Yi Yun first. I have many other tricks up my sleeve, and I'll show him what I'm made of!"
Li Yunshang said in a cold voice.
Yi Yun thought that by rushing into the herb garden, he could snatch food from the tiger's mouth, but little did he know that this would only make it easier for them to catch him like a turtle in a jar.
At this moment, Yi Yun also sensed the fluctuations coming from the spatial channel.
He turned around and saw Li Yunshang and the others coming towards him.
"You guys came in pretty quickly. I thought you'd fight outside a bit longer. But this one... Yun, you look like you've been beaten up pretty badly."
Yi Yun's mocking voice reached the ears of Li Yunshang and the others.
Li Yunshang's eyes flashed coldly, and she gave a heavy, cold snort, "Let's see if you're still so sharp-tongued when you're wishing for death!"
He was so eager to capture Yi Yun that he could finally vent his anger.
But just then, a scream suddenly came from the spatial passage behind.
Li Yunshang frowned, quickly turned her head to look, and her expression immediately changed.
A Li Family elite who had just been teleported in only had half of his body transferred; the other half was torn to pieces in the spatial passage.
At the same time, a tremendous suction force suddenly emanated from the space surrounding the passage, causing the entire Space Law to become extremely chaotic and to spread rapidly, like a plague, towards the entire medicine garden.
Several of the weaker Li Family elites immediately showed expressions of terror. They were being torn apart by this spatial force and were quickly screaming as they were ripped into pieces.
What's going on?!
Li Yunshang was shocked. He could clearly feel that even he was struggling to withstand the dramatic changes in space, and these changes were becoming increasingly intense!
"It's Chi Turtle!"
From the other end of the passage, Li Jiuxiao's voice could be faintly heard.
"Chi Turtle?" Li Yunshang was shocked. Wasn't that beast stopped?
Li Jiuxiao was even more horrified. He hadn't expected that after witnessing Li Yunshang and the others fly into the herb garden, the Chi Turtle would suddenly let out a resolute roar, abruptly turn its head, and bite down hard on the World Stone.
"Damn it! This beast has gone mad!"
Li Jiuxiao was completely taken aback by this scene. His expression changed drastically, and he repeatedly struck out with his palms, trying to stop the Chi Turtle.
However, the Chi Turtle completely ignored his attack and, even with several wounds on its head, still bit down directly.
The power of the Chi Turtle was terrifying. After it bit the World Stone, the runes on the surface of the World Stone trembled violently. Then, under the immense power of the Chi Turtle, an unbearable loud noise was emitted.
Click click click!
The World Stone, inside the giant mouth of the Chi Turtle, emitted an unbearable cracking sound.
The runes on it began to flicker.
"Come out!" Li Jiuxiao slammed his palm down on the Chi Turtle's forehead.
The Chi Turtle let out a painful roar, raised its head, but still held onto the World Stone tightly.
With a roar, Li Jiuxiao conjured a giant hand, which reached into the spatial passage and grabbed Li Yunshang.
The moment Li Yunshang emerged, the World Stone shattered, and the spatial passage also broke apart.
"Ah!" Li Yunshang screamed in agony. Before one of his legs had even fully escaped the spatial passage, half of his lower leg was bitten off!
Click!
The Chi Turtle completely crushed the World Stone.
Li Yunshang was in immense pain. He clutched his severed leg, his heart trembling. His lower leg was completely mangled, and even the Li Family would have to pay a huge price to regenerate it, and it would be impossible for him to restore it to its former state.
At this moment, Li Jiuxiao couldn't care less about Li Yunshang. He stood in the air watching this scene. Without the World Stone, even if they knew that the medicine garden was in a nearby spatial node, they would not be able to find it.
They hadn't expected the Chi Turtle to be so fierce, preferring to destroy the World Stone itself rather than let them enter the herb garden.
The cooked duck has flown away! They've already entered the herb garden, yet all their efforts have been in vain!
"Beast! Beast!" Li Jiuxiao was trembling with rage.
At the critical moment, he only had time to rescue Li Yunshang. After all, Li Yunshang was the most promising genius of the younger generation of the Li Family, and it would be a great pity for her to die.
As for those elites of the Li Family, they can only fend for themselves in the medicine garden; they cannot withstand the Space Storm brought about by the collapse of the World Stone.
And Yi Yun... he was the same, anyway, the result was definitely death.
At this moment, the Chi Turtle looked up and gave them a cold glance, then slowly sank into the sea.
Li Jiuxiao hesitated for a moment, but ultimately dared not give chase, for this seawater was the territory of the Chi Turtle.
Although the Chi Turtle was poisoned, the poisoning was not severe, and now that the World Stone is gone, there is no point in chasing it anymore.
But the thought of the destroyed medicine garden made Li Jiuxiao feel extremely suffocated, and a mouthful of blood choked in his throat, almost causing him to vomit. This was because he had just fought the Chi Turtle and exhausted himself.
He roared a few times and frantically slapped the sea surface several times.
The seawater surged violently, but the roar of the waves did not give Li Jiuxiao any sense of catharsis; instead, it seemed to mock him.
Li Jiuxiao was already greatly exhausted, and after this outburst, he had very little energy left. He flicked his sleeve fiercely and gritted his teeth, saying, "Let's go!"
This time, he truly suffered a double loss, and Li Jiuxiao didn't want to stay here a moment longer.
Li Yunshang's expression wasn't much better. He had come all this way and gained nothing, but instead lost half of his leg, looking utterly pathetic and barely managing to save his life.
Aside from not being able to obtain the herb garden, Li Yunshang's biggest regret was not being able to personally kill Yi Yun.
Letting Yi Yun die in the Space Storm is far too lenient on him!
