ALL NOVEL Chapter 47
Chapter 47 (Must Read!) The Empress Transforms into a Weapon, Qin Bei is Invincible
The excited crowd all turned their gazes towards the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
They suddenly remembered that while the boss of the monsters had been dealt with, the biggest threat was actually this Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
Qin Bei surveyed the current situation.
There were still nearly a hundred cultivators standing alive.
However, not many monsters were left.
After all, in the previous battles, this group of geniuses who had successfully completed foundation building could boast an advantage despite their smaller numbers.
If it weren’t for the appearance of a Golden Core monster, led by Qin Xuan, they could have managed without any reinforcements.
On the contrary, the new batch of monster beasts not only maintained good condition but also included a fourth-level peak being like the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
Once again, the initially enthusiastic crowd found their spirits sinking.
“What’s there to be afraid of? With my brother here, a mere fourth-level monster will be reduced to dust with a snap of my fingers!” Qin Xuan proclaimed proudly, hands on hips.
Qin Bei: …
Your brother never said anything like that.
“Right! With Prince Qin Xuan’s brother around, what are we afraid of? As long as we hold the other monsters at bay and prevent them from ganging up on us, we’ll be fine!”
Qin Xuan’s words completely energized the group of young people.
Although Qin Bei wanted to tell them they had too much faith in him, this wasn’t the time to crush their confidence.
Furthermore, only he could take on the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
They couldn’t rely on the Beastmaster’s Beast Madman hiding away in the distance just watching.
With this thought, Qin Bei glanced toward the direction of the Beast Madman.
He had jotted down this grudge.
One day, he would repay the Beastmaster’s Sect a hundredfold!
“Alright, leave this turtle to me. You all take care of yourselves.”
Qin Bei then looked at Ji Zhuyue.
“Watch over Xiao Xuan.”
“Mm.”
However, the next instant, the young men around felt a force pushing them away.
This included Qin Xuan and Ji Zhuyue as well.
“What’s going on? Why are we here?”
“Huh? Look, it seems like Prince Qin Xuan’s brother hasn’t moved at all.”
“What’s in front of me? Why can’t I get through? What’s happening here?”
Everyone was baffled, unsure why they were being pushed back.
Moreover, an invisible barrier stood in front of them, stopping them from advancing even a step.
“Oh no!”
Ji Zhuyue’s pupils constricted as she realized something.
“Beautiful Sister, what did you discover?” Qin Xuan asked anxiously.
“This is the Heavenly Mystery Turtle’s bloodline magical power, the Heavenly Mystery Domain!”
Ji Zhuyue’s tone was noticeably urgent.
The others around gasped in shock.
“To think it’s the Heavenly Mystery Domain! Isn’t it rare for even one in a thousand of the Heavenly Mystery Turtle clan to awaken this magical power? What a coincidence that we meet one now!”
Qin Xuan exclaimed, equally astonished.
The Heavenly Mystery Domain may lack lethality, but its speciality lies in its control—within this domain, the Heavenly Mystery Turtle can allow anyone in and keep anyone out at will.
The only way to break through this domain is to surpass the Heavenly Mystery Turtle in strength; otherwise, everything is dictated by the Turtle itself.
“Coincidence?”
Ji Zhuyue shook her head, clearly unconvinced it was mere luck.
No wonder she had always felt something was off about this encounter; now everything made sense.
All of this was merely a ploy to lure Qin Bei into the secret realm and then have the Heavenly Mystery Turtle eliminate him.
The mastermind behind this scheme was probably the Holy Demon Empire.
Having figured this out, Ji Zhuyue began to feel anxious.
Because in this scenario, only Qin Bei remained on their side.
Meanwhile, on the other side, hundreds of monster beasts rallied behind the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
This meant the Turtle was forcing Qin Bei to face off against a horde of monsters alone.
Even if Qin Bei could fight across levels, this wasn’t how one ought to battle!
One person against a hundred third-level peak monsters and one fourth-level peak? Even the most accomplished Golden Core cultivator would have no choice but to back down in this situation.
“I’m not like that useless thing. He loves to go solo; me? I prefer the indignant look on your face, unable to do anything!”
The rough voice of the Heavenly Mystery Turtle boomed.
“Everyone, get in there! Turn him into meat paste!”
Boom boom boom!
With the Turtle’s command, a horde of monsters charged at Qin Bei like wild beasts.
Qin Bei had already discovered the issue with the Heavenly Mystery Domain early on.
However, he couldn’t do anything about this domain.
After all, this ability wasn’t attacking him, and it wasn’t like the Shadow Demon Array that concealed one’s figure.
It was merely a plain barrier.
Though, this barrier was far from friendly toward him.
The sole weakness existed within the Heavenly Mystery Turtle inside the barrier.
Yet that weakness wasn’t really a weakness at all.
“Watch out!”
The anxious crowd outside kept their eyes fixed on Qin Bei.
Then, they witnessed something unbelievable.
Qin Bei seized the horn of the leading monster and used it as a battering ram, thrusting it backward.
The leading monster thus became Qin Bei’s own monster meat shield!
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
A cacophony of enraged roars erupted from the monsters.
They thought Qin Bei was shameless for not facing them head-on.
Bang!
With one punch, a monster’s brain matter splattered everywhere, killing it instantly.
Gurgle~
“This… for a moment, I can’t tell which side is the real monster.”
“Why do I feel like my earlier worries were a bit excessive? This guy’s a humanoid feral beast!”
“So ruthless…”
No one had expected that just a second ago, they were worried about Qin Bei getting swarmed, and now they were contemplating who the real beast was?
At this moment, Qin Bei resembled a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex, sending any monster that came at him flying.
No monster could withstand Qin Bei’s punch and survive.
Consequently, a bizarre scene unfolded.
The monsters that had once sought fortune while avoiding danger, realizing Qin Bei’s prowess, began to flee desperately, attempting to escape the domain.
But without the Heavenly Mystery Turtle’s consent, they couldn’t get out.
Thus, a horde of monsters found themselves surrounded by Qin Bei all alone…
This…
The Beast Madman who had been hiding in a distance to watch the melee turned green with fury.
However, he didn’t dare to unleash the two monsters he controlled in front of so many people.
He could only pin all his hopes on the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
Roar!
“Everyone, CALM DOWN!”
The Heavenly Mystery Turtle hadn’t expected such a turn of events; it let out an angry bellow, restoring order among the panicking monsters.
At least it still had some clout—on hearing its command, the disturbed monsters settled.
“A bunch of useless trash!”
After that remark, the Heavenly Mystery Turtle finally stepped onto the battlefield itself.
However, it did not attack Qin Bei.
Or rather, it was simply not good at attacking.
This explained why, despite being at the peak of the fourth level, it didn’t face Qin Bei alone.
“Come, hit me here!”
The Heavenly Mystery Turtle swaggered right in front of Qin Bei, boasting.
“This is the first time I’ve heard such a demand. I’ll just have to make it happen for you!”
Without hesitating, Qin Bei unleashed his full strength, sending over four million jin of force crashing toward the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
With that strike, any fourth-level beast would either be injured or drop dead.
Yet when it struck the shell of the Heavenly Mystery Turtle, it merely caused it to stagger back a step…
When the head of the Heavenly Mystery Turtle emerged again, it showed no signs of injury.
Qin Bei couldn’t believe that his strongest blow had failed to harm this turtle!
“Is that all? Are you just tickling me? Put in more effort!”
The Heavenly Mystery Turtle said dismissively.
Bang bang bang!
After a few more punches, the Heavenly Mystery Turtle remained fine.
Its defensive power was just too formidable!
Moreover, Qin Bei sensed he seemed to be stuck by the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
The opponent had executed yet another bloodline magical power.
Frenzied Taunt!
It could influence someone’s actions, causing Qin Bei, who wanted to back down, to continue attacking.
And at the moment Qin Bei attacked, the surrounding monsters suddenly felt reinvigorated.
One by one, they began to swarm Qin Bei.
“Oh no, their coordination is clearly targeting my brother!”
Even Qin Xuan, completely oblivious until now, recognized this was aimed at Qin Bei.
On one side, the Heavenly Mystery Turtle, which couldn’t launch an offensive but had unbeatable defenses, continued to withstand Qin Bei’s overwhelmingly superior power.
On the other side, a bunch of third-level monsters exploited Qin Bei’s defensive weaknesses.
The plan was simply brilliant.
As predicted, this time Qin Bei didn’t wield the same fierce demeanor he had during the earlier attacks.
Facing the collective forces of the third-level monsters, he could still manage several hits without injury, thanks to the Undying Phoenix Body.
This situation genuinely stunned everyone.
But that was about it.
Faced with the unrelenting wave of assaults from the monsters, even Qin Bei, sporting the Undying Phoenix Body, could no longer endure.
At the end of the day, he was still just a peak Qi training realm cultivator.
Whether it was the Double Pupil or the Undying Phoenix Body, neither had demonstrated their true potential yet.
Puff~
Entering the secret realm, this was the first time Qin Bei had genuinely sustained an injury.
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Hahaha~ You’re no more than that.”
After the first injury, a second one quickly followed.
Even the powerful healing ability of the Undying Phoenix Body could not restore Qin Bei’s wounds in such a short time.
At this point, Qin Bei still pressed on against the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
He simply endured the ceaseless attacks from all directions, remaining unyieldingly stoic.
Only when the Heavenly Mystery Turtle’s magical powers expired could Qin Bei retreat to a safe distance.
By then, Qin Bei was gravely injured.
Nevertheless, the assaulting monsters paused, waiting for the Heavenly Mystery Turtle to once again use its magical powers on Qin Bei before resuming their attacks.
Qin Bei looked at the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
He knew he had to find a way to break through this Turtle’s defenses.
Otherwise, even if the Heavenly Mystery Turtle did not employ its powers, it would be difficult for him to safely escort Qin Xuan out.
But his strongest attack was pure strength.
He had tried that; it simply wasn’t working against the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
“If I had known, I should’ve gotten a good weapon earlier,”
Qin Bei grumbled inwardly.
Lately, he had become so focused on breaking through the million-jin strength threshold that he had forgotten to prepare a handy weapon and offensive abilities.
“What now? There’s just no way to counter it!”
Qin Xuan said anxiously.
Beside him, Ji Zhuyue furrowed her brows.
She was in a dilemma.
At this moment, she was the only one capable of assisting Qin Bei.
But if she helped him this way, she would really belong to Qin Bei.
…
The reason Wu Nation ranked third in Cangzhou Continent despite lacking a Saint Realm cultivator is precisely due to its exceptional characteristics.
Everyone practicing Wu Nation’s teachings actually becomes a peerless divine weapon, an ever-evolving divine weapon at that.
When she was still the Empress, a subordinate in the quasi-saint realm willingly became a divine weapon for her.
It was for this very reason that Wu Nation could stand on equal footing with forces that had Saint Realm beings.
However, the drawback of this skill is that once someone willingly becomes a weapon and is wielded by another, they can only be used by that person going forward—unless one of them meets their end.
For Ji Zhuyue, having lived so long, she had never considered transforming herself into a weapon for someone else.
Her pride made her believe that no one could ever be her master.
But now, after spending a month with this man, she found herself hesitating.
She wanted to face the Heavenly Mystery Turtle on her own.
But without Qin Bei’s control, even as a divine weapon, she couldn’t confront the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
Ji Zhuyue thought of reconsidering, knowing this was the hardest decision she had ever faced.
Yet Qin Bei’s situation already seemed increasingly dire.
Ultimately, Ji Zhuyue surrendered her internal struggle, abandoned the pride of the Empress, and followed her heart.
At this moment, she acknowledged Qin Bei!
She recognized her husband, albeit a cheeky one.
Then, she transformed into a stream of light, effortlessly entering the Heavenly Mystery Domain of the Heavenly Mystery Turtle.
“Hubby! I’m here to assist you!”
Ji Zhuyue’s voice was resolute, and compared to before, it held a new layer of emotion.
*Ps: This is my first attempt at writing fantasy. To be honest, it’s a bit tough, and I’m pulling my hair out. I feel like I’m doing a subpar job (which I definitely am), but there’s no choice but to go slow.
This is my debut, so I doubt the outcome will be stellar. Please throw me a five-star review and a small gift to start with.*
