Among them, Situ Jian led a group of one Late Stage Golden Core alliance mber to form a team, while Tong Yongsheng led two Late Stage Golden Core alliance mbers as another group.
As for the remaining people, they were led by a Golden Core Grand Perfection alliance mber, forming another team responsible for a specific area task.
After confirming these arrangents, the powerful mbers of the Blood Red Alliance entered a state of ditation.
And early this day, Situ Jian and the others split into three groups, proceeding swiftly in different directions according to the plan, soon disappearing into the valley.
...
In the depths of the Dark Forest, within a mountain region.
At this ti, the forest was shrouded in thick mist, rendering the deep mountain woods extrely quiet, with an uncanny feeling.
At this mont, Lin Tianming was lingering at the bottom of the mountain.
He then cast his gaze toward the depths of the mountains.
Following his line of sight, in the distance were high mountain valleys, covered with dense forests, with giant stones embedded in the mountainside, forming precipitous cliffs.
At the bottom of the mountains, a river flowed through, its endless winding waterway eventually leading to an unknown destination.
However, this river was very wide, and the flow of water was very rapid, its light black water indicating the river's unfathomable depth.
As his gaze shifted, along the banks of the river was a flat oasis, with trees and flowers adorning it, forming a rather graceful scene.
But at this ti, Lin Tianming had no extra ti or energy to appreciate these things.
Because in his exploration, he discovered sothing special in the bottomless river.
At this mont, Lin Tianming's sharp eyes were fixed on the center of the river.
Under his watchful eyes, a gigantic whirlpool appeared in the center of the river, with a large amount of water pouring into the vortex as if a giant mouth was frantically inhaling the water.
At first glance, there was nothing particularly noteworthy about this scene.
After all, the river was inherently wide, its water flowed swiftly, and the overall volu of water was already significant.
Under such conditions, whirlpools forming in the central area of the river was nothing unusual.
However, it was noteworthy that this whirlpool was exceptionally large, with an excessively fast water devouring speed.
Moreover, from the bottom of the whirlpool, there were occasional low growling sounds, suggesting a demonic beast was roaming beneath the water.
It was precisely this commotion that attracted Lin Tianming's focused attention.
But what puzzled him was that even with the aid of the Eye of Five Colors, Lin Tianming couldn't clearly see the scene deep within the river.
As for what was at the bottom of the whirlpool, the true source of the growling, or which creature it was, Lin Tianming had no way of ascertaining.
With these factors present, Lin Tianming remained standing there, continuously observing this peculiar area.
Despite his investigation, Lin Tianming still couldn't yield any results.
Consequently, Lin Tianming's expression beca sowhat solemn, his heart more vigilant than ever.
To him, this place was exceedingly strange.
In such a location, even with his powerful Divine Sense supplented by the Eye of Five Colors, he couldn't discern the true state of affairs here.
If it were soone else, they would likely uncover even less.
Therefore, Lin Tianming assud a wary posture as if facing a formidable adversary, his cautious attitude reaching its peak.
In this state, Lin Tianming was prepared to act at any mont, while also ready to flee at the first sign of danger.
Thus, Lin Tianming lingered here for a mont.
Soon after, the river underwent another change.
Looking at the river now, a massive head suddenly erged from the center of the whirlpool.
This head was dark green in color, and just a small portion that protruded looked like a massive rock.
As more of this dark green head erged, its features beca more apparent.
At this mont, this dark green giant head had two glowing green eyes, and as its mouth opened and closed, large amounts of river water were sucked into it.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming finally understood that the whirlpool in the river was caused by this massive demonic beast's breathing.
And this demonic beast was a Fourth Order Dragon Turtle, its aura relatively subdued, further concealed by the light black river water, making it impossible for Lin Tianming to detect.
However, now that the Dragon Turtle had voluntarily revealed itself, Lin Tianming could clearly determine its specific grade.
Moreover, the Dragon Turtle, as a demonic beast of the Fourth Order, was a formidable existence with its na recorded in many docunts within the Cultivation World.
As such, Lin Tianming had co across so descriptions of the Dragon Turtle in various literatures.
Now, with the Dragon Turtle revealing half of its body, Lin Tianming imdiately recognized its origins upon sight.
Including the grade of this Dragon Turtle, Lin Tianming could accurately assess.
Lin Tianming was confident that he wouldn't mistake it.
If it were otherwise, if this were rely a sub-adult dragon turtle or simply a young turtle, it wouldn't possess such a massive body nor create such a commotion.
As such, based on the Dragon Turtle's size and other unique traits, Lin Tianming, taking into account the special environntal factors of this area, quickly deduced a lot of critical information.
Acknowledging this point, Lin Tianming's expression changed, and he beca sowhat terrified.
After all, right in front of him was an authentic Fourth Order Dragon Turtle.
And this level of demonic beast, even if it were the most ordinary type or one inclined towards defense, still possessed terrifying power.
At least in the eyes of a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, such a high-level demonic beast posed a deadly threat.
On this point, not even Lin Tianming could deny it.
So, at this mont, after confirming the Dragon Turtle's grade, Lin Tianming's deanor quickly turned serious, adopting a vigilant stance as if ready to confront a powerful enemy.
At the sa ti, Lin Tianming imdiately retreated, aiming to maintain a safe distance from this formidable demonic beast.
Only at a sufficiently far distance could Lin Tianming have more ti to think and make effective decisions.
Through countless battles, Lin Tianming's heart was already acutely aware of this.
And he had always acted accordingly.
Now facing a huge threat looming ahead, even though the Dragon Turtle had not yet made any attacking moves, Lin Tianming had to be extra cautious.
If the Dragon Turtle did attack, he could implent a response strategy in ti.
At the very least, in the worst-case scenario, he would have more ti to react when escaping.
Knowing this, Lin Tianming imdiately widened the distance.
At his speed, Lin Tianming moved like a swallow, retreating hundreds of feet within just a few breaths.
anwhile, as Lin Tianming rapidly retreated, the giant Dragon Turtle in the river's center completely revealed its head, swallowing the river water into its stomach.
Subsequently, the Dragon Turtle closed its mouth, and the original whirlpool beneath its head vanished.
Instead, around the Dragon Turtle's head, several new whirlpools appeared.
Looking now, these whirlpools were much smaller, incomparable to the earlier massive whirlpool.
Especially, as they appeared on the wide water surface, these small whirlpools rely created ripples, soon replaced by other water waves.
