Li Xunle and Zhao Hao both stared at the lake with surprise.

Quietly waiting for the mysterious being at the bottom of the lake to appear.

"Splash splash splash—"

The lake water was becoming increasingly turbulent, and the surging waves were getting higher and faster.

Zhao Hao held the gleaming longsword in his hand, his interest piqued.

"How the hell is something that can survive in such extreme cold? And it dares to cause trouble!"

After saying that.

He brandished his longsword, looking eager to try.

Li Xunle remained silent, his eyes revealing curiosity.

His gaze was fixed on the surging waves.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, his fair face appearing even paler in this snow-covered world.

He gently stroked the staff in his hand, ready for battle at any moment.

Oh no.

It's ready to be snapped up at any time.

For him, there's nothing a green light can't solve.

If so, then two groups.

There's nothing we can do; people who use cheats just don't have any sportsmanship.

The two were eagerly awaiting their turn.

finally.

The mysterious entity in the lake gradually emerged from the water.

What came into their view was an enormous, icy-crystal-like turtle head...

Its size is so enormous that it is like a small mountain.

After casting True Sight on himself, Li Xunle prepared to check the other party's information.

But they found that the distance wasn't quite enough.

They were more than a kilometer away from the ice crystal turtle.

then.

He looked at Zhao Hao:

"Ritian, go and use your sword to see what's going on with that turtle. Give it some practice. I'll keep watch for you."

Zhao Hao didn't refuse at all, and confidently said:

"Haha, no problem at all, I'll go right away."

After saying that.

He then gestured with his hands, holding a gleaming longsword suspended in front of him.

He leaped lightly and landed steadily on the sword, then controlled the flying sword to approach the giant tortoise.

but.

An unexpected scene unfolded.

Zhao Hao flew through the air on his sword, several hundred meters away from the tortoise.

The giant turtle began to tremble, as if it were using some kind of skill.

The next second.

Countless ice spikes, like a barrage of arrows, shot out from the water's surface and hurtled towards Zhao Hao.

Each icicle looked incredibly sharp and crystal clear.

It reflects a bright light.

Seeing this, Zhao Hao was somewhat surprised, but remained completely calm.

He gestured directly, and nineteen flying swords, under his control, began to spin nimbly around Zhao Hao at high speed.

Not only that.

He also used the [Protective Sword Light] skill.

His body was faintly shrouded in an impenetrable sword light.

With the support of two layers of defense.

The ice arrows, though seemingly incredibly powerful, couldn't land on Zhao Hao at all.

Zhao Hao smiled dismissively: "That's it?"

After laughing.

He immediately checked the other party's information.

The next second.

His expression changed slightly, somewhat surprised.

This monster's name is actually [Northern Darkness Black Tortoise].

Second-tier monsters have over 4 billion HP.

It also has several powerful defensive skills:

[Mystic Ice Seal: The Black Tortoise can manipulate extreme cold power, condensing surrounding frigid air to form massive ice walls or ice spikes, inflicting powerful freezing and impact damage on enemies. This skill not only creates obstacles on the battlefield but also effectively restricts enemy movement.]

[Tortoise Shell Shield: The Black Tortoise's shell is incredibly hard, forming a powerful shield to protect itself from enemy attacks. This shield not only withstands physical attacks but also provides some resistance to magical attacks.]

[Serpent's Entanglement: The serpentine body of the Black Tortoise can rapidly extend to coil around enemies or objects. Once entangled, the enemy will experience intense restraint and pressure, making escape difficult. Simultaneously, the serpent's body will release chilling poison, causing continuous damage to the enemy.]

[Dark Sea Waves: Xuanwu can summon the waves of the Dark Sea, forming massive tidal waves that crash against enemies. This skill not only deals massive physical damage but also pulls enemies into the waves, causing them to lose their balance and combat effectiveness.]

[Breath of the Black Tortoise: The Black Tortoise's breath contains powerful life force, capable of healing itself and its teammates. In battle, the Black Tortoise can use this skill to provide timely healing to its teammates, enhancing the team's ability to sustain combat.]

After Zhao Hao finished reading the skill descriptions,

I was completely astonished.

This guy is definitely a meat shield; he'll probably be very difficult to kill.

Thinking about this...

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Xuanwu's first round of ice spike attacks had completely ended.

then.

He then controlled the nineteen flying swords to fly towards the Xuanwu, wanting to test its defensive capabilities.

Xuanwu sensed an approaching threat.

Its body trembled.

The next second.

A thick, crystal-clear ice wall covered Xuanwu's body.

Not only that.

Just when Zhao Hao thought the flying sword was about to touch the ice wall on Xuanwu's body, another accident occurred.

The lake water around Xuanwu seemed to be under control.

It quickly condensed into a thick layer of ice.

Equivalent to.

Xuanwu has at least three layers of defense.

The ice wall formed by the lake water, the ice wall covering the body, and the seemingly indestructible turtle shell.

but.

Zhao Hao's attack power is indeed monstrous.

It not only broke through the ice wall formed by the lake water, but also broke through the ice wall covering Xuanwu's body, finally leaving deep sword marks on the turtle's shell.

Even the turtle's health decreased by a tiny bit...

Its power can be described as extremely terrifying...

only.

This attack was of no consequence to the powerful Xuanwu.

The Northern Dark Tortoise seemed completely unaffected and launched another attack on Zhao Hao.

only.

Zhao Hao was too lazy to bother with it any longer, so he simply flew away on his sword.

He is very self-aware.

If I were to kill Xuanwu myself, I probably wouldn't have much of a chance.

He's good at killing people, but when it comes to killing monsters with super high health, he needs a long time to slowly whittle them down.

Why not just ask the eldest brother to come out of retirement?

After Zhao Hao left.

The ice spikes launched by Xuanwu all missed their mark and fell into the lake.

The water splashed out hundreds of sprays on the lake's surface, densely packed, as if it were boiling.

The scene was spectacular.

At this moment.

Zhao Hao quickly returned to Li Xunle's side, who was watching the show.

He said seriously:

"Big brother, that monster is called [Northern Darkness Black Tortoise]. It has over 4 billion health points and strong defense. If I were to kill it, it would probably take a very, very long time."

Li Xunle raised an eyebrow and nodded slightly.

immediately.

He took action without any hesitation.

He gently waved his dazzling staff and used [Divine Teleport] to instantly appear in the air.

The next second.

He used [Divine Teleport] once again, rushing towards [Northern Dark Tortoise], still in the air.

After the third teleportation.

He abruptly stepped onto the back of the [Northern Dark Tortoise]...

Xuanwu didn't even have time to react.

No sooner said than done.

Five orbs of green light emanated from Li Xunle's staff and shot directly at the Xuanwu beneath his feet with lightning speed.

The ice wall covering Xuanwu's body was simply unable to withstand the corrosive properties of the five green lights.

As expected.

Xuanwu was killed instantly by Li Xunle!

Surprisingly, a two-star luck crystal lamp was found.

Li Xunle reacted quickly, narrowly managing to grab the crystal lamp before it fell into the water.

Then.

He quickly waved his staff and used teleportation to leave again.

He did not choose to destroy the evidence.

Because this monster is so large, it would take a lot of time to destroy it.

He felt it was really unnecessary.

After returning to the lakeside, he carefully examined the two-star luck crystal lamp in his hand.

Crystal clear, colorful, and as dazzling as a diamond.

After staring for a few seconds.

He quickly put it into his backpack.

immediately.

He scanned the area around the Lake of Reincarnation with his gaze, but did not find any azure vortex light.

Logically speaking

Secret realms always have teleportation portals.

At this moment.

Zhao Hao suddenly pointed to the small island in the center of the Reincarnation Lake:

"Holy crap! Dude, look what that is!"
