Aiming for the Immortal Path

In the giant cauldron, it was clearly visible that a huge monster turtle was soaking in a strange liquid that was steaming, emitting astonishingly high temperatures and aura.

The turtle's head and two forelimbs were hanging on the edge of the pot, looking lifeless.

The delicious smell in the air comes from this giant pot.

Su Twelve's pupils shrank and he couldn't help but take a few more glances at the monster turtle.

However, after observing for a long time, I saw that the other party was motionless, and there were countless signs of life emanating from it, as if it were a dead turtle monster, so I didn't pay attention. .??.

Then, his eyes fell on the ground not far from the giant pot.

There, lying there was an equally lifeless corpse. Fat body, round face, full of flesh.

A pair of bulging eyes, almost popping out.

Even though he has fallen and has no life left at all, what he sees on his face is full of shock and disbelief.

With just one glance, Su Twelve recognized the man's identity.

Is it the Lord of Sunset City? He...really died here?

Judging from the way he died, it should have been very sudden. He was caught off guard and didn't even have a chance to take action. Moreover, he was very unwilling to die.

Was the person who killed him too strong? Or...is there something hidden in it?

Su Twelve thought to himself, looking at the corpse on the ground from a distance, but did not come closer.

After silently observing for a moment, he saw that there was no other crisis. He activated his true energy, chanted a mantra, and threw a ball of hot fire onto the opponent's body.

As the flames ignited, a pungent smell filled the air. Soon, the flames dissipated, and the corpses on the ground turned into fly ash and dissipated in the wind.

Seeing this scene, Su Twelve felt a little more at ease.

It's easy to kill someone, but it's hard to feel completely at ease if you don't burn the other person's body.

"Now that this person is dead, how should we find him next?"

Where are Li Piaoyu and others? "

"This person not only practices evil cultivation techniques, but also is good at yin and yang harvesting and replenishing techniques. He must be immersed in this method frequently."

"Is there... another mystery inside and outside this courtyard?"

Su Twelve's consciousness spread out, and he did not dare to waste time. His consciousness penetrated ten feet into the ground and scanned back and forth in the courtyard.

However, time passed by bit by bit, no matter how he scanned and searched, there was no clue or discovery at all.

Such a result made Su Twelve frown deeply, almost twisting into a rope.

"This...this is troublesome. There is no mystery at all here?"

"Do we need to search through the entire City Lord's Mansion one by one? But the City Lord's Mansion is quite large, and the efficiency of searching underground will be greatly reduced."

"I'm afraid that when the situation here is discovered, we may not be able to search the entire city lord's mansion."

With his hands behind his back, Su Twelve clenched and stretched his fists.

After pondering for a moment, his face condensed and he made a decision in his heart.

"Well, after thinking about it, there is no other way at the moment. Even if there is little hope, we can only use this place as the center to conduct investigation step by step. If this person really brings people to the city lord's palace, it should not be too far away from where he is. That’s right.”

"In order to prevent the situation here from being discovered, we will be faced with a situation of nowhere to escape, and we only have half an hour at most."

"When the time comes, we must leave this place as soon as possible."

"Hmm... But before leaving, the body of this turtle beast needs to be disposed of. It's not a good thing if such a strong fragrance keeps wafting around."

Su Twelve squinted his eyes and whispered to himself.

As soon as the words fell, all around me

The breath instantly became extremely sharp.

Immediately afterwards, he clasped his hands and chanted a mantra, and Peiran's true energy emerged again.

The moment he left the body, he turned into a fiery snake emitting scorching heat and headed straight for the earthly fire at the bottom of the giant pot.

The earth fire was blessed by the fire snake, and the fire suddenly became bright.

Raging flames soared into the sky and turned into a sea of ​​fire.

In just an instant, the terrifying high temperature steamed up the strange liquid in the pot. It has the potential to engulf the turtle monster in the pot and burn it to pieces.

However, as the flames increased, the turtle monster suddenly changed.

The turtle monster in the pot was not only not ignited by the flames, but instead exuded an extremely cold ice energy to resist the flames.

"Zizzizi..."

Under the blending of water and fire, rich white water vapor emitted from the air.

The water mist filled the air, covering the entire courtyard in the blink of an eye, and even rose into the sky.

However, before the water mist could rush out of the courtyard, the movements of Su Twelve's hands suddenly changed again.

Waving his arms in a circle, he transformed the power of yin and yang, creating an invisible suction force that gathered the water mist in the air between his hands, and then condensed the water into ice.

Two sharp gazes were like sharp swords, pointing directly at the turtle beast in the giant pot.

The whole body is full of true energy, and the fire spells have not stopped. The earthly fire is blessed by fire spells and has an endless supply, emitting increasingly hot temperatures.

On the other hand, the turtle beast's speed was visibly reduced by the extremely cold ice energy permeating its body due to the impact of the flames, and its body was constantly trembling.

Suddenly, a pair of eyes like copper bells opened suddenly.

"No, don't burn it, it's going to hurt me to death!"

Um? Talking about people?

This...this is a level four monster?

The sudden sound made Su Twelve's pupils shrink, and his heart was horrified.

My heart suddenly rose to my throat.

The true energy surged within his body, and his body retreated a hundred feet away like lightning in an instant.

"Don't...don't run, help...help me!"

However, just when he was about to seize the moment to escape, the voice from behind continued.

Su Twelve paused.

"No! Since that turtle monster can speak human words, it should be refined into horizontal bones. It must be a fourth-level monster."

"But the aura on it is clearly just the aura of a level three monster."

"Furthermore, if it is really a fourth-level monster, how could it be captured by the city lord here and reduced to such a state? There must be a mystery in this..."

Thoughts quickly passed through his mind. Su Twelve hesitated for a moment, then chose to turn around and carefully return to the other courtyard again.

In the raging fire, the cold air around the turtle monster completely disappeared. Under the burning flames, the water in the body drained quickly.

What goes by together is its vitality.

As Su Twelve went back and forth, the aura of the turtle beast became extremely weak.

Su Twelve held the Fire Control Technique with his hand and immediately controlled the flames in front of him, but he did not rescue the turtle beast.

He opened his mouth and asked: "What level of cultivation are you at?"

The turtle monster was able to breathe, and its eyes turned when it heard this.

But as soon as his eyes rolled around, he felt that the flames under his body were rising again, and he didn't dare to hesitate at the moment.

"Third...the early stage of the third level! It is equivalent to the cultivation level of your human monks at the early stage of the Golden Core Stage."

Su Twelve stared and asked again, "How can you speak human words and refine the bones when you are only at the early stage of the third level?"

The turtle monster hurriedly replied, "I... I once swallowed and refined a drop of Xuanwu blood essence when I was a child. Therefore, after my cultivation reached the third level, although I could not transform into a human body, I was able to refine the horizontal bones."
