Chapter 690 (2/2)

If he rushed out now, startling the Golden Turtle,

their previous efforts would most likely be in vain.

However, although such an idea appeared,

Lin Jing would not actually do that.

Doing so, firstly, would easily put himself in danger.

Secondly, Lin Jing still didn’t know what the two were doing in the valley,

or what their true purpose was.

If he wanted to take any action, he needed to understand their goals first.

Before that, it was necessary for Lin Jing not to disturb them and to carefully observe their actions.

……

Li Mingwu and Long Daoren moved slowly, taking most of the day to finally climb back to the mountain top.

After crossing the mountain top, the two did not stop but continued down the mountain.

Lin Jing followed and observed them for a while, noting that the two did not speak to each other but just kept moving downward.

It made sense since, even though they had left the valley, they were still too close to the Golden Turtle; even a slight noise could disturb it.

Once out of the valley, their descent down the mountain sped up.

Lin Jing used the Observation Mode to follow them.

Until the two reached the foot of the mountain and continued outward, moving beyond the maximum range of the Observation Mode.

To avoid wasting time, Lin Jing chose a spot where the two couldn’t see him and used Fixed Point Teleportation.

He had to ensure he didn’t lose track of them if he was to glean any information from them.

……

Afterward,

the two men kept walking outwards, seemingly no longer concerned about the Golden Turtle.

But Lin Jing knew that was not possible.

If they weren’t planning to deal with the Golden Turtle, they wouldn’t have entered the valley in the first place.

This way,

the two walked ahead, and Lin Jing silently followed behind them.

Two days later, perhaps feeling they were far enough not to disturb the Golden Turtle, the two finally took off their armor and stopped hiding.

Once they exposed themselves,

they were immediately attacked by several magical beasts.

Facing these assaults, the two men fought back mercilessly.

They used powerful spells and even resorted to various Magical Treasures,

and together, it didn’t take long before they had slain all the attacking beasts surrounding them.

After killing the magical beasts, they extracted the silver blood from the creatures’ bodies and collected it all.

Once the blood of the magical beasts was collected, the two men set off again, heading to another location.

At the next site, more hidden beasts attacked them.

These beasts, undeterred by fear of death, would immediately attack upon sensing their presence.

And the two men fought back again, killing the assaulting beasts…

This way…

The two continued forward, relentlessly killing magical beasts, whether they were burrowing old turtles or massive owls in the sky; none were spared.

Meanwhile, Lin Jing silently trailed behind, making no noise whatsoever.

After another three days, having jointly killed over a hundred magical beasts,

Finally,

after slaying the last old turtle beast, the two stopped.

After killing the beast, Long Daoren stepped forward, took out a Jade Vial, and collected all the blood from the old turtle beast.

After collecting the blood, Long Daoren returned to Li Mingwu’s side, handed him the Jade Vial, and then spoke,

“With so much essence blood from the magical beasts, should that be enough?”

Li Mingwu opened the Jade Vial, peeked inside, and then nodded,

“Enough!”

“With these essence bloods, we can lure out that giant Golden Turtle.”

Upon hearing this, Long Daoren nodded slightly, and then spoke again,

“Now that we have collected the essence blood of these beasts, you can tell me what to do next, right?”

“Of course,” Li Mingwu continued.

“Earlier, we had placed an extremely covert Formation within that valley.”

“Next, we will need to place these essence bloods within those Formations.”

“Once we evacuate, we can detonate the Formation.”

“Once the Formation is detonated, it will certainly enrage the Golden Turtle, at which point, I will lead the enraged Golden Turtle away.”

“Beneath the Golden Turtle, there is a deep pit, and the Metallic Attribute of the Five Elements Spirit should be within that pit.”

“After I lead the Golden Turtle away, you should take the opportunity to approach the pit and retrieve the Metallic Attribute Five Elements Spirit inside.”

At this point, Li Mingwu changed his tone slightly, cautiously adding,

“You must remember.”

“Even without that Golden Turtle, the pit is still very dangerous.”

“You must be extremely careful.”

Long Daoren, upon hearing this, nodded,

“I am well aware of that,” he assured.

Having said this,

Long Daoren looked at Li Mingwu and spoke again,

“This time, as I help you get this Metallic Attribute of the Five Elements Spirit, the Fire Attribute Five Elements Spirit you promised to obtain for me, you must not go back on your word.”

Li Mingwu looked directly at Long Daoren and replied,

“Don’t worry,”

“Since we have formed an alliance, I will certainly keep my word.”
