Although Qin Mengjun's methods were strong, after all, they were the Blood Exchange of the Qian Heaven lineage. Once at the underground, it wasn't so easy to utilize, and it wasn't certain she could catch up with him, just like the Mystic Tortoise if it were at the Shores of the Vast Sea. Qin Mengjun might not be able to easily subdue it now.

"Roar..."

The Mystic Tortoise, whose limbs were suppressed by Qin Mengjun's palm and could not rise from kneeling, laid its massive head on the ground, staring fixedly at Qin Mengjun with its bell-like demonic eyes, issuing a muffled and angry roar from its mouth.

Its ancient bell-like demonic eyes turned again to the approaching Chen Mu, filled with deep hatred. If it weren't for this damn Chen Mu's incessant pestering, it would have already slipped into the cold river and vanished.

Hate! Hate! Hate!!

The hatred and anger in its heart were unstoppable.

"There's no use struggling anymore. You should know by now that it's impossible to escape from my hands. I will not take your life. Come back with me to the Seven Profound Sect and become the Mountain Guardian Spirit Beast of the Seven Profound Sect, and you may continue to live,"

Qin Mengjun said to the still struggling Mystic Tortoise, speaking in a gentle tone.

The Mystic Tortoise turned its gaze back to Qin Mengjun, its massive mouth slightly open, and for the first time, it spoke in a human voice. The bloodshot eyes revealed a touch of madness and fury.

"...No!"

"You have a long life. As long as you can live long enough, there might be a chance to regain freedom in the future. After all, our Seven Profound Sect is not the Sky Demon Sect and does not have such a need for a living Mystic Tortoise,"

Qin Mengjun continued to persuade in a soft voice.

A living Mystic Tortoise was always more valuable than a dead one, but the difficulty of capturing it alive was too great. If the Mystic Tortoise was uncooperative, it wouldn't be so easy for her to take it back alive to the Seven Profound Sect, especially since this place was too far from the Seven Profound Sect.

Chen Mu looked at Qin Mengjun's persuasion, his expression a bit odd for a moment, and then thinking about how the Seven Profound Sect raised black serpents to mass-produce Tendon Changing Pills, he felt somewhat like 'if you won't do it, there are plenty of other tortoises that will.'

"Roar!!"

However, the Mystic Tortoise ultimately let out a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering roar.

Fed up with a hundred years of captivity, to it, Qin Mengjun's words were the same ones it had heard the old ancestor of the Sky Demon Sect say years ago. But after enduring a century, it still couldn't escape, fed up with the deceitful and cunning Human Race; it had had enough of deceit.

In those blood-red demonic eyes of the Mystic Tortoise, a flicker of utmost hatred flashed by. Suddenly, as if something exploded within its body with a muffled sound, the bloodshot demonic eyes were instantly permeated with crimson red, turning into a sea of red. The demonic power around its body surged violently, expanding and erupting like never before, forcibly shattering Qin Mengjun's suppression!

"Die..."

The Mystic Tortoise let out a roar that echoed through the Wilderness, as if venting the resentment of a century of imprisonment within that single shout. Ignoring Qin Mengjun, it moved its limbs with all its might. Its massive body burst out with unprecedented speed at that moment, not fleeing but charging towards Chen Mu not far away, in a frenzy of desperation, as if wanting to drag Chen Mu down with it in death.

Feeling the momentum of this charge, Chen Mu's expression changed slightly. This attack far exceeded all of the Mystic Tortoise's previous tactics, as if it were more terrifying than its peak condition. He knew this wasn't the Mystic Tortoise regaining its strength, but rather it had completely abandoned the will to live, destroyed its own Demon Heart, and unleashed all its remaining demonic power in rage and resentment.
