Chapter 36

As expected, before Gu Ning could ask, Bing Bing, who was in Gu Ning’s body, started to dance around in Gu Ning’s body excitedly when she saw the mushroom:

“Yes, yes! This was my favorite mushroom when I was a fierce beast! I can improve my cultivation greatly by eating one!”

“I know, I know. The mushroom won’t run away.” Gu Ning walked up and put her backpack on the ground.

Gu Ning also looked around and found many strange things growing around the strange red blood pool.

Besides the mushroom, there were other plants that looked different than usual. There were even humanoid fruits with heads and mouths that were talking to the plants around them.

However, Gu Ning only needed the ice god mushroom. He did not know if Liu Yuxi would take the rest.

Gu Ning glanced at Liu Yuxi, but she was not moved. She murmured, “Without the blood spring crystal, I have to go deeper.”

None of these things were what the little girl wanted?

Gu Ning ignored her and started to pick the mushrooms.

The so-called ice god mushroom looked like an ordinary mushroom. However, it was blue in color and covered with a thin layer of frost.

Gu Ning was also careful to see if there were any mechanisms, but it was easy to pick it out.

“So smooth,” Gu Ning thought to herself.

As soon as Gu Ning zipped the bag, a loud noise came from the middle of the lake!

Gu Ning reacted quickly and made an ice blade with his right hand, protecting Liu Yuxi behind him. He looked at the surface of the lake coldly, “It’s really not that simple.”

Then, a huge red turtle head appeared in the water. It started to laugh strangely. “Hehehe…”

“Ah!”

Liu Yuxi was not as calm as Gu Ning. Seeing the huge turtle and the strange laughter, Liu Yuxi was so scared that she grabbed Gu Ning’s arm.

“Hehehe…”

The big red turtle slowly rose from the bottom of the lake while laughing.

The turtle was standing on two legs!

When it finally came out, it turned its head to Gu Ning and Liu Yuxi, and said in a low voice, “In the past 200 years, you’re the first human to break the illusion of nightmare that I’ve cast!”

“What… what?”

Liu Yuxi was shocked before Gu Ning could say anything. “A turtle can talk!”

Gu Ning said helplessly, “Beasts that have lived for more than a millennia can talk. This is a secret land. Isn’t it normal to have millennia-old beasts?”

“Don’t tell me you haven’t tried this before?” Gu Ning complained.

“How can that be common sense? Do you think a millennia-old beast is like a cabbage in the market? It’s normal for ordinary people to have seen it,” Liu Yuxi retorted.

Gu Ning thought to himself, “Rare? There are only two in my family!”

But Gu Ning could not tell Liu Yuxi that, so she answered in a low voice, “Then I’m well-informed.”

“Enough!”

The three-meter-long turtle with two legs was angry, “Can you show me some respect? Do you think this is a small theater of love?”

Gu Ning thought to himself, you’re a commander-level beast, and you want me to respect you? The contract beast of Bai Yang, the young master of the Bai Group, was a commander-level beast.

Seeing Gu Ning rolling his eyes, the red turtle, which had been on its own for thousands of years, was furious. “Fine! I’ll make you pay the price!”

The turtle suddenly opened its mouth! It spat out several blood-red icicles from its mouth!

However, it was so obvious that even Liu Yuxi would not be caught in such an attack. Therefore, Gu Ning and Liu Yuxi, who had started glowing in a blue light, easily dodged the icicles.

Unexpectedly, the icicle exploded behind Gu Ning and Liu Yuxi like a bomb. The ice shards and Sparks flew in Gu Ning and Liu Yuxi’s direction!

“Ah!” Liu Yuxi could not dodge it in time. She shouted.

“Hide behind me.”

Seeing this, Gu Ning directly created two ice shields with her hands. Then, she spun the shields to block all the attacks.

“You bastard, are you trying to trick us?” Gu Ning said coldly.

The turtle laughed, “Interesting, interesting. It seems that we have to play with something real. So… how long can you last? Kids?”

“How long?” Gu Ning, who had already built a soul circuit with the butterfly, snorted. The next moment, he flashed in front of the turtle and gave it a high kick!

The turtle’s body was covered in frost. Then… it disappeared!

“Fake?”

Gu Ning was shocked. He turned around and warned Liu Yuxi, “Run!”

Liu Yuxi heard Gu Ning’s warning. She turned around and found that the turtle had opened its mouth!

“Xiao Ying!” Liu Yuxi hurriedly summoned her own pet.

With a flash of pink light, Liu Yuxi’s familiar, the thousand-flower butterfly, appeared in front of her. The moment the familiar appeared, it began to fight with the turtle!

Who knew… that this turtle was also fake!

Liu Yuxi was shocked, and said, “How… how is this possible? !”

As Liu Yuxi was still in a daze, a huge fish mouth suddenly appeared under her feet!

Liu Yuxi was stunned. Her familiar, the thousand-flower butterfly, immediately sacrificed itself to save its master, and was the first to be swallowed by the Turtle!

It would take Liu Yuxi a week to heal the thousand-flower butterfly! Before that, she could no longer build a soul connection with the thousand-flower butterfly!

But now, the most important thing was not the familiar, but whether Liu Yuxi could survive in this situation!

Liu Yuxi screamed and closed her eyes. At that moment, she had even thought of her last words. However, she was still too young to die!

At the critical moment…

“As my former deskmate, don’t give up so easily.”

Hearing Gu Ning’s voice, Liu Yuxi suddenly opened her eyes. She found Gu Ning, who was holding an ice shield in his left hand and an ice sword in his right hand, was already beside her!

Liu Yuxi was not the only one who was surprised. Even the turtle couldn’t help but widen its eyes! How could this guy be so fast!

The Turtle did not expect Gu Ning to be faster than itself!

“Let’s see how you dodge this!” Gu Ning first threw a shield at the turtle’s head, then spun his body like a top, and stabbed the other sword into the turtle’s body!

The turtle screamed and disappeared again.

Seeing that, Gu Ning smiled, “Let’s see how you run now.”

The turtle was a little surprised when it heard Gu Ning’s voice, then it finally found the problem!

Because the sword of ice that Gu Ning had made himself was still stuck in its body!
