"Take it away? How do we take it?" Lin Chun asked doubtfully.
"You'll know soon..." I said with a smile, injecting the Shepherd God's power directly into the miniature tombstone. In the next instant, the miniature target emitted a fluctuation.
Then I clearly felt the ground begin to vibrate.
In just a few breaths, everything around us disappeared.
And where we were now, we were also in a giant barrier.
This barrier could isolate the surrounding seawater, but the things inside were gone.
"This... is this magic?" Lin Chun asked.
I smiled and shook my head, saying nothing more.
We had already witnessed too many strange things. Although this matter seemed a bit strange, it was within reason.
Regardless, being able to take this thing away would definitely be of great use to me in the future.
We two prepared to find an exit and suddenly noticed a colossal sound approaching us not far away.
Not long after, the colossal figure appeared before us. It was the giant turtle from before.
The turtle stopped outside the barrier and opened its mouth wide.
We walked over, only to find that the barrier still existed.
"Come on, I'll give you this chance!" I said with a smile.
Lin Chun nodded, without any hesitation. His terrifying lightning power directly struck the barrier.
But to our surprise, under such terrifying power, the barrier only trembled slightly and did not break.
"It seems quite tough..." Lin Chun said, and once again transformed into his previous state, his body covered in lightning.
Terrifying power once again struck the barrier, and a large gap immediately appeared in the barrier.
Seawater surged in madly. Just as we were about to be submerged by the water, the giant turtle suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed us both.
Darkness descended once more. This time, we did not enter the turtle's stomach, but were in its mouth.
Time passed little by little. When light shone in again, I found ourselves on the beach.
"Thank you..." I looked back at the giant turtle and said with a smile.
This turtle had existed for quite some time. In a way, it should have possessed some intelligence.
"Let's go..." Just as I was about to turn, a voice suddenly sounded in my mind, "Lu Ziye, take it away too..."
I knew this voice was from Chen Feifei, but I didn't know how to take this fellow away.
"Show it the token in your hand..." Chen Feifei's voice came.
I quickly took out the miniature tombstone from before and waved it at the turtle.
In the turtle's huge eyes, a flicker of excitement appeared, and then its colossal body actually began to shrink rapidly.
A terrifying power emerged from the tombstone and directly sucked the turtle into it.
Everything around us returned to normal, except for the great waves, nothing else remained.
When we left earlier, I believed that the barrier had also been completely destroyed, and now this turtle had also been taken away.
This place seemed as if nothing abnormal had ever occurred...
After I began cultivating, many things seemed natural to me, but facing this situation, I still found it somewhat incredible.
However, I soon came to terms with it. Although only about half a day had passed in the outside world, for me, it felt like decades, even centuries.
Endless battles, maintaining a high intensity state at all times.
Fortunately, under those circumstances, my mental state did not suffer any major issues.
And I felt no fatigue.
After each death, I would revive at full health, and I didn't even have a chance to feel tired.
Lin Chun and I simply determined our direction and headed straight ahead.
With the improvement of our strength, our speed had also increased significantly. Thus, with almost no rest, it took us less than a day to return to the city.
The city remained unchanged, as we had not been away for too long.
Upon entering the city, I rushed directly back to my room.
Luo Yaqin was cultivating.
I stepped forward and hugged her tightly.
This sudden change made Luo Yaqin somewhat unaccustomed. While gently patting my back to comfort me, she asked what had happened.
I didn't explain, I just wanted to hold her a little longer.
This feeling was truly indescribable. This temporal disparity was something ordinary people could not experience. Unless they had truly gone through that process, they could not understand how lonely and terrifying it was.
Two days passed like this.
During these two days, I was almost inseparable from Luo Yaqin.
This made Luo Yaqin a little unaccustomed, and Chen Zhi and the others, seeing this, covered their mouths and giggled. But I couldn't be bothered.
Only Lin Chun understood why I was acting this way.
After two days passed, I finally began to think about where to put such a large place.
"Elder Yu..." I sat in my room and closed my eyes.
"You finally remembered me?" Elder Yu asked with a smile.
"How dare you say that! Why didn't you tell me back then that so many things would happen inside..." I said indignantly.
"I didn't know either. I only knew about that place and had never been inside..." Elder Yu said, "And I couldn't contact you when I got close to it..."
I smiled, of course understanding what was happening.
"What exactly happened to you?" Elder Yu asked.
I simply recounted all the events that had transpired inside. After quietly listening to the entire process, Elder Yu fell silent.
"Is something wrong?" I asked.
"No..." Elder Yu slowly exhaled, "But the names of a few people you mentioned, I seem to know something about them..."
"Huh?" I was puzzled.
"Mmm..." Elder Yu said, "When these people were fighting against the Heavenly Dao, they did not exert their full strength. At that time, they were misunderstood by everyone..."
"Now it seems they were not intentionally hiding their strength, but rather because they left a portion of their power in that place..." Elder Yu took a deep breath. "They are the truly great ones..."
