Xue Huan swam quickly in the water, as if she had no resistance from the water at all, and her speed was no slower than that of a spinning turtle.
In fact, this was true. Not only did she not feel any resistance from the water, but she felt like a fish in water and could even breathe freely.
This is certainly not without reason.
Previously, she had obtained the Mermaid Pearl from the mermaid Chen Yuan in the Soul Realm. The Mermaid Pearl was actually a skill condensed by Chen Yuan using his own soul power. After refining it, one could randomly obtain one of his innate skills.
So rather than saying that what Chen Yuan gave was a mermaid pearl, it would be better to say that it was an innate skill that belonged to him.
As a mermaid, Chen Yuan has several innate skills, such as weaving illusions with singing, manipulating water at will, suppressing the blood of low-level aquatic creatures, etc.
Of course, it doesn't mean that the skill no longer belongs to him after he gives it away. What he gives away can only be said to be a copy of one of his skills, a low-end version.
After Xue Huan refined the mermaid pearl, she gained the skill of the mermaids' innate control over water. However, she was not a mermaid after all, so naturally she could not control water as freely as the mermaids.
But it is easy to walk on the water and breathe freely.
She has none of the resistance or opposition to water that terrestrial creatures do. Instead, she feels very close to it and can even easily manipulate the water around her.
Xue Huan quickly approached the spiral turtle. With a thought, the surrounding water formed a chain that bound the huge spiral turtle.
This water chain actually doesn't have much binding force, but its deterrent effect is far greater than its actual effect, because the spiral turtle smelled a terrifying breath from this water chain that made its soul tremble!
Could it be that the mermaids have returned again?
Thinking of the fear of being dominated by the mermaids in the past, even though the turtle has now grown into a giant beast, it still can't help but tremble with fear.
He just froze there and dared not move.
Although Xue Huan was surprised that the water monster did not move or struggle after being bound by the water chain, she knew that opportunity could not be missed. Wasn't this a good opportunity to attack it?
She flashed forward and slashed at the turtle's neck with the snowflake knife in her hand.
Its shell has amazing defensive power, and it is covered with thick spikes. Its tail can regenerate even if it is cut off, so the only fatal part of its body that is exposed is its head.
The threat of death made the turtle subconsciously retract its head, and then it discovered that the one who cast the water chain was not the mermaid, but the human in front of it!
The spiral turtle felt annoyed as if it had been deceived, and it said that the mermaids had opened a space channel and moved their entire clan thousands of years ago, so how could they still be staying here?
hateful!
The angry turtle attacked Xue Huan frantically, but Xue Huan was not afraid at all. Instead, his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
She has been practicing the Snowflake Sword for so long, but she has never used it in actual combat. Today is the perfect time to use it on this river monster!
However, the rotating turtle was not a sparring partner, but a monster that wanted to devour her. It would not cooperate with her in every move, but would only follow its instincts and do whatever was most effective.
When she attacked, it retreated into its shell. As soon as she showed any weakness, it would suddenly attack with its head and tail.
After fighting for a while, Xue Huan was a little tired of dealing with it. This river monster was really cunning!
It's simply taking the dirty style of play to the extreme.
Of course, this is a battle of life and death, not a game of house, so no matter how you fight, it is acceptable as long as the enemy can be killed.
From the perspective of the river monster, Xue Huan could understand it very well, but now she was the one fighting it, which made her very depressed.
Xue Huan was not paying attention when her waist felt tight and she was rolled up by the river monster's tail.
The tortoise raised its tail high and slammed her down onto its shell.
Xue Huan looked at the approaching spikes and thought that if they really hit her, wouldn't she become a skewer?
She released the mole, which quickly transformed from a cute mimicry into a giant beast as big as a mountain. It opened its mouth and bit off the turtle's tail.
The turtle screamed in pain and subconsciously threw Xue Huan out.
When the man in black rushed over, he saw this scene.
In front of Xue Huan, there was a dark mountain. If she crashed into it, she would be torn apart.
At this moment, someone grabbed her by the waist, but the force was too great and he was dragged forward for a considerable distance, stopping just in front of the mountain.
When Xue Huan looked up, she saw a face wearing a black mask.
"Master, it's going to run away!" The voice of the mole beast sounded in Xue Huan's mind.
Xue Huan looked over suddenly, and the man in black also looked over.
The spiral turtle seemed to be very afraid of the man in black. As soon as it saw him coming, it ran away impatiently. It completely ignored the attacks and harassment of the mole beast and focused on sinking deeper into the water.
The man in black let go of Xue Huan, took a step forward, and chased after the spinning turtle. However, due to the resistance of the water, his speed was completely incomparable to that on the ground.
This was also the reason why he fell behind Xue Huan even though he entered the water first.
Xue Huan also chased after him, and arrived first. In the water, she had much more advantages than Pei Ji.
She grabbed the man in black and swam with him in the water as fast as a fish, and soon caught up with the spiral turtle.
Although the skills she gained after refining the mermaid pearl could not be compared with the orthodox water control ability and were far inferior to Shen Yuan, who was Shen Yuan? The king of the mermaids.
So even if her skills are only one tenth of his, she can still easily crush a monster like the spiral turtle, whose bloodline is far inferior to that of the mermaid.
When they arrived in front of the rotating turtle, Xue Huan and the man in black exchanged a tacit glance and quickly divided the work.
Xue Huan was responsible for entangling the spinning turtle, blocking its path and preventing it from escaping, while the man in black was responsible for attacking and delivering powerful damage.
There is also a mole beast next to it, which is responsible for interfering with the turtle's vision and harassing it from time to time.
The two men and the beast worked together perfectly, beating the spinning turtle until it kept screaming.
This time, it was Xuangui's turn to be depressed.
It let out a sad and angry roar, its animal nature coming out, and it decided to fight with the two men!
The huge body of the tortoise began to spin faster and faster, forming a water tornado around it. If you were caught in it, you would be seriously injured even if you didn't die.
The water was the home turret of the whirling turtle, and when it went wild, it was truly overwhelming. Even Xue Huan was a little unsteady, and the mole was nearly sucked into the whirlpool.
She simply put it into the space.
The man in black was suspended above the whirlpool, but he was motionless and steady as a rock. He glanced at her and actually took the initiative to throw himself into the whirlpool.
"Pei Ji——"
Xue Huan rushed over, but before she could rush into the whirlpool, the whirlpool was completely frozen, and the rotating turtle underneath was all frozen.
It was as if time stopped and the world was silent.
The dark ice crystals and the chill penetrated into Xue Huan's bones. Her body froze instantly, and even her thoughts seemed to be frozen.
The next moment, with a crack, the black ice broke, and the spiral turtle underneath was revealed. There was a sword stuck in its head, the same one that belonged to the man in black.
But the man in black had disappeared.
