Chapter 524: The Great Explosion of the Wooden Turtle

After Li Hui upgraded to late-stage Bosa, the Seize the Day Talisman could increase his time flow rate by a hundred times. With the Heart Talisman enhancing his power, he achieved a speed of one hundred forty times, yet he still couldn’t escape the Absolute Kill Arrow.

This crossbow arrow was too fast, shooting through the Four Fiends Absolute Kill Suppression Array in an instant and entering the Misty Sky Formation alongside his form.

“Amplify! Two hundred times!”

Li Hui didn’t believe it could be faster than an arrow. The silver snake bracelet contained a vast amount of talisman power, which served as his support. His form suddenly floated away, and the talisman power nearly overwhelmed the Seize the Day Talisman.

Quickly! He almost caught up with time!

The Absolute Kill Arrow pierced through the Misty Sky Formation and the Four Symbols Decay Formation; even the Dao Traces forming a formation couldn’t stop it.

At that moment, Li Hui entered the Waves of Light Array, pulled out his whisk, and released a burst of nine-colored demon fire behind him. Then, he rushed into the final layer of Dao Traces formation.

There was no sound as the nine-colored demon fire shattered. However, as the Absolute Kill Arrow passed through, the shattered demon fire transformed into tendrils of fire entwining around the arrow.

Li Hui found himself in the Ice Freeze Array. He turned and unleashed forty-nine Purple Crystal Great Swords to shield him within the formation when a line of strange light struck.

The crossbow arrows pierced through the crystal swords heading straight for Li Hui’s throat, their speed showing no signs of slowing down. Its power was incomprehensibly strong; no wonder it was named Absolute Kill.

With such a devastating weapon firing, it was unheard of. Fortunately, tempered by the demon fire, the final Dao Trace formation, the Ice Freeze Array, shifted from extreme heat to extreme cold, causing a slight dissonance in the arrow.

Li Hui seized the opportunity, charging toward the arrow while fully deploying his Ideal Body, allowing the Qi of Taiqing to fill his body as he brushed past the arrow.

In the moment of life and death, the brave are invincible!

“Go!”

As his form swayed, the forty-nine Purple Crystal Great Swords returned to the treasure cabinet.

The Purple Crystal Great Swords were not badly damaged; they could restore themselves with spiritual energy. The terror of the Absolute Kill Arrow was overwhelming, not even allowing the sword array to be fully activated when prepared.

Li Hui exited the formation, not daring to enter the Xuancha Cave Heaven, fearing that this arrow would bring about a disaster!

Though the time seemed long, it wasn’t even as quick as lightning, because Li Hui continuously chased time. Meanwhile, the ball flower had just led Yang Jiuzhen onto the heavenly vessel, anxiously gazing into the formation when she saw Li Hui emerge.

“So fast?”

“Even faster! I’ve already traveled through all the Dao Trace formations!” Li Hui took Yang Jiuzhen away from the Four Fiends Absolute Kill Suppression Array, leaving a message: “Ball Flower, continue using the ancient heavenly vessel to set up a passage. That arrow will automatically fly out; don’t worry about me.”

In the blink of an eye, the Mysterious Pearl vibrated lightly, and Li Hui and Yang Jiuzhen appeared.

“Eh?” Tie Hu’s eyes widened, while Tan Tiandi frowned.

“Hehe, surprised to see me? Just wait, the good show is about to start…” Li Hui suddenly swung his hand with great force, hurling the arrow toward the wooden turtle.

“Not good!” Tan Tiandi exclaimed in shock.

“This arrow entered the Dao Trace formation with me in an instant; it will be slow coming back around! After all, that’s the Dao Traces forming a formation. If it were that easy to come and go, we wouldn’t need one hundred and eight ancient heavenly vessels,” Li Hui smiled slightly. With the time Dragon Claw and the Heart Talisman boosting his power, he resolved the crisis while setting up Tan Tiandi.

“Junior Sister!”

“I understand!” Yang Jiuzhen summoned the Round Mirror as Tie Hu approached with a purple gold hammer.

The purple gold hammer bombarded continuously, while Yang Jiuzhen showcased stunning defenses, standing firm against Tie Hu’s stormy assault.

“How is this possible? Who is this girl?” Tie Hu gasped in astonishment, while Li Hui remained active, using the time Dragon Claw to sweep, tearing through the purple gold hammer in just two breaths.

With a “pop,” the purple gold hammer shattered into scraps.

That was Tie Hu’s famous spirit treasure, and it was destroyed just like that, causing him to roar in pain: “Ah, ah, ah, I will crush you!”

“Go!”

Li Hui had no desire to linger; the main character here was the wooden turtle. If this giant creature self-destructed, who knew if they could survive? Old Li’s message indicated that Tan Tiandi’s physical body was destroyed, and that was when he was a highly skilled practitioner in the future.

To escape the Absolute Kill Arrow, how fast must Li Hui be? If he wanted to leave, could Tie Hu stop him? Moreover, the icy shell freezing the wooden turtle was already cracking, unleashing terrible power.

“Rumble…” The wooden turtle exploded, millions of black torrents surged forth, followed by black beams of light, radiating terrifying dark energy.

Li Hui barely escaped with Yang Jiuzhen, but when he looked back, words failed him. The ground caved in, a massive chasm tearing Zi Xu in half, with all buildings obliterated.

“Heavens! Are we alive?” Yang Jiuzhen stood in shock.

“Now isn’t the time to celebrate.” Li Hui observed from a distance and noticed that in the swirling black torrents, Tan Tiandi and the others had gathered around Tie Hu. Together, the five withstood the dark energy’s enormous pressure, though it consumed a great deal of their strength, they managed to survive.

“They actually survived that kind of force?” Yang Jiuzhen couldn’t believe it.

“Wait, something is changing.” Li Hui spotted an anomaly: the dark energy had expanded, began converging, and slowly formed a three-thousand-zhang Yin Dragon, drawing all the dark energy from the nearby mountains and valleys.

“Hahaha, this Prime Minister has finally broken free from confinement to see the light! As a celebration, I will refine you all.” The colossal being contracted inward, quickly condensing to a thousand zhang, putting immense pressure on Tan Tiandi and the others.

“Damn it, go die!” Tie Hu raised his hand to unleash a line of strange light. He actually still had a second Absolute Kill Arrow.

The Yin Dragon was taken aback; its head exploded in an instant, revealing a jade-carved sea turtle.

“No!”

At the critical moment, the Jade Turtle shot toward Li Hui like lightning, while the Yin Dragon’s remaining body self-destructed again, following the wooden turtle’s path.

“Help! This Prime Minister is willing to serve you, my lord.” The Jade Turtle transmitted a message as the arrow, influenced by the self-detonation, slowed by just a moment before chasing it down.

Li Hui reacted lightning-fast—he couldn’t allow it to get close! He swung the time Dragon Claw to create obstacles. Before the Jade Turtle could come near, it exploded with a resounding boom, shattered by the arrow.

“Capture!”

The time Dragon Claw grasped at the blinding light, extracting a piece of jade the size of a baby fist. It was the remnant of a cracked turtle face, glaring angrily and cursing: “You ungrateful little bastard, this Prime Minister has submitted to you, and yet you let that arrow destroy me.”

“Less chatter; if I hadn’t acted, you would have been obliterated in the waves of light.” Li Hui examined the jade and grew increasingly curious. Thinking it was a ghostly object before, now that he held it and inspected it closely, he found it elusive and couldn’t help but ask, “What exactly are you?”

“I am Prime Minister Turtle, I really am Prime Minister Turtle! Why does no one believe me?” the jade said. “To be honest, I don’t know what I am either, but the ancient Taichu Kingdom repressed me to extract the location of the Crystal Palace, claiming this turtle is the key to unlocking it.”

“The Crystal Palace?” Li Hui shook his head: “Whether you’re a key is debatable, but I see a benefit in you. Let me help you restore your energy and forge an artifact.”
