Chapter 442 - 440: The Formidable Grandma Turtle
The Little Saint, Tian Chuan, had his face smashed in!
Blood spurted from Tian Chuan’s face, which was now a mangled mess.
Teeth even flew out and clattered to the ground.
This... this was a Little Saint’s face, yet it had been smashed to a pulp just like that. It was utterly unbelievable.
Just a moment ago, all they had seen was the White Turtle suddenly transform into a streak of white light and effortlessly shatter the protective Sacred Patterns.
Then, it smashed right into Tian Chuan’s face.
And Tian Chuan, despite being in the Little Saint Realm, had been completely unable to react.
It wasn’t until the White Turtle had landed back on Jiang Jichen’s shoulder that Tian Chuan finally registered what had happened.
Only then did the searing pain erupt across his face.
That White Turtle’s speed...
It was too fast, too stunning!
Everyone was stunned, utterly incredulous.
One had to understand that while Saints were Spirit Cultivators, their physical bodies were also astonishingly tough.
Upon entering the Saint Realm, one’s body would be baptized by the Celestial Dao, making it exceptionally strong.
It was comparable to a Body Refiner at the Golden Body Fifth and Sixth Layer.
In other words, in terms of physical durability alone, a cultivator in the Little Saint Realm was already nearly on par with Jiang Jichen.
Furthermore, the Sacred Patterns condensed in the Saint Realm possessed an unparalleled Defense Power.
And most fearsome of all was a Saint’s Spiritual Sense, which was powerful to an extreme degree.
Yet, such a powerful Little Saint had been completely unable to dodge or block the White Turtle’s face-smashing attack!
"Hmph! I’ll say it again, shorty. This Grandma Turtle is going to smash your face to bits. Are you scared?"
Grandma Turtle stood on Jiang Jichen’s shoulder, looking down on Tian Chuan with disdain as she spoke.
Jiang Jichen was also shocked. He had just activated his Seven-Colored Divine Thought and Heart Hidden Heaven and Earth simultaneously, pushing them to their absolute limits.
Yet, he still hadn’t been able to track Grandma Turtle’s movements.
’It’s just... too fast!’
’Grandma Turtle... is truly powerful!’
’She’s definitely a powerful backer, a solid supporter.’
’Hmm, her legs might be a little small, but they’re definitely worth clinging to.’
Jiang Jichen was secretly delighted, feeling like he had just found someone powerful to ride the coattails of.
With Grandma Turtle around, a proud smile spread across his face. "I told you I had powerful support—so powerful that even I get scared when I unleash it. You just wouldn’t believe me. Regretting it now?"
"Hmph, hmph. My backer is the number one turtle of antiquity! She carries an Immortal Elixir on her back and has walked through the eons. She is known as the world-suppressing Grandma Turtle, with an aura of absolute dominance! Who here still dares to defy me?"
Jiang Jichen was truly proud and smug at this moment.
With Grandma Turtle at his side, he could be as arrogant as he wanted, fearing no enemy.
Just a moment ago, these people had told him to come back and act arrogant once he had a strong backer. Naturally, he couldn’t let them down.
Hearing Jiang Jichen’s words, the crowd was momentarily stunned into silence.
Previously, they would have immediately dismissed his claims.
But after witnessing Grandma Turtle’s methods, they were starting to believe him.
Even if she wasn’t as terrifying as Jiang Jichen claimed, her origins had to be astounding.
If this White Turtle truly was a living fossil that had walked through the ages...
...then today’s events were far from ordinary.
Grandma Turtle loved hearing Jiang Jichen’s words of praise.
She puffed up with pride, lifting her little turtle head arrogantly.
It was as if she truly were the number one turtle of antiquity, her domineering aura sweeping across thousands of miles.
Meanwhile, Tian Chuan circulated his Holy Power, and the wounds on his face slowly began to heal.
But the public humiliation of having his face smashed had already driven him mad, his killing intent soaring.
Although the White Turtle’s speed had made him wary, he was fearless in a true battle to the death.
’I can definitely kill that little White Turtle.’
"Damn you! I was careless and fell for your trick! You little turtle, I won’t be able to quell the hatred in my heart until I’ve stewed you into a soup!"
He roared in a frenzy. The burning shame completely extinguished the last shred of caution he felt toward the White Turtle, and he prepared to strike again.
At the same time, Nangong Bo and the other four Little Saints also charged forward to attack.
They had finally realized that the White Turtle was far from ordinary.
Therefore, they decided to attack together to suppress and kill it.
"Hmph. I didn’t expect the boy to actually have a backer. But it’s just a White Turtle at the Little Saint Realm that excels in speed. Nothing to fear!"
"Jiang Jichen, you dare to be so arrogant with such meager support? You’re courting death."
"Let’s destroy them both."
Finally, the five Little Saints attacked simultaneously, intending to kill both the White Turtle and Jiang Jichen.
Boundless Holy Light erupted from the five Little Saints, as dazzling as a sun.
Sacred Patterns surged forth like tidal waves, moving to suppress the very space around the White Turtle and Jiang Jichen.
The combined might of the five Little Saints was world-destroying; a single blow could level a massive mountain.
Now, that full power was descending upon the White Turtle and Jiang Jichen.
"Go, Grandma Turtle! You’re unmatched! Smash those Saints’ faces!"
Facing the terrifying combined attack of the five Little Saints, Jiang Jichen felt a knot of uncertainty in his stomach.
But he had no choice but to trust in Grandma Turtle, shouting words of encouragement to cheer her on.
Grandma Turtle remained perfectly calm, standing serenely on Jiang Jichen’s shoulder.
"Don’t worry," Grandma Turtle said, her voice brimming with confidence. "With me here, there’s a face-smashing for everyone!"
She was completely self-assured, allowing the destructive Holy Light to rain down.
BOOM!
In the next instant, a phantom image materialized around Grandma Turtle.
It was a colossal turtle, floating in the void.
This giant turtle was different from the little White Turtle. It had the head of a dragon, the body of a tortoise, and the tail of a serpent!
It was a Black Tortoise!
The Black Tortoise, renowned through the ages for its mastery of the Defense Dao!
Everyone was utterly shocked, and a sense of terror bloomed in their hearts.
The White Turtle had displayed a level of power that far exceeded their imagination.
With the enormous phantom of the Black Tortoise holding firm in the void, even the combined attack of the five Little Saints was completely blocked.
Grandma Turtle, radiating an peerless, domineering aura, shouldered the massive Black Tortoise phantom and shot out as a streak of white light.
SLAP! SLAP! SLAP!
A series of crisp, face-slapping sounds echoed through the air.
It was... the White Turtle, smashing their faces.
The five Little Saints were utterly unable to react. Blood spurted from their faces as their teeth flew out.
This time, the blows were much heavier, infused with a strange Divine Power.
It directly imprinted a turtle mark on each of their faces—a mark that could not be removed.
Even if the wounds healed, as long as that Divine Power remained, the turtle imprints would be permanent.
The crowd was dumbfounded. The five Little Saints were also dumbfounded, forgetting to even continue their attack.
They... had been utterly powerless to resist.
Every single one of them had their face smashed!
Grandma Turtle declared smugly, "This Grandma Turtle never takes a life. I only smash faces!"
Yet, the words were delivered with an unparalleled dominance that stunned the entire crowd.
She really only smashed faces!
At this, the faces of the surrounding female cultivators instantly turned deathly pale, and they didn’t dare utter a sound.
"Grandma Turtle," Jiang Jichen chimed in, fanning the flames, "a lot of people around here were just slandering you. Someone even said that if I really had a backer, he’d livestream himself eating shit!"
"That’s simple," Grandma Turtle cackled. "With a single thought, I can replay the recent past. Heh heh... Anyone who said anything nasty is getting their face smashed by this Grandma Turtle!"
Grandma Turtle’s voice rang out, but to the surrounding cultivators, it sounded like the voice of a Demon.
The faces of many cultivators instantly turned ashen.
They tried to flee, but an invisible force descended from the void, imprisoning them all. For a moment, they were completely unable to move.
Even Nangong Wanyu and Qiao Hee were frozen in place by the mysterious, invisible power.
Just then, Jiang Jichen’s malicious gaze suddenly locked onto Nangong Wanyu and Qiao Hee.
