Chapter 104 A Useless Act

"Look, isn't it delivering itself right back to our doorstep now?"

Mu An smiled and spread his hands.

The facts proved it.

Hiding one's own strength, besides being able to experience the thrill of pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger.

It could also make certain guys 'lose their heads', creating the illusion that 'the advantage is with me' and 'I will definitely be able to kill him'.

Little did they know, all of this was bait to lure the prey in.

Sometimes, the reversal of roles between the hunter and the prey happens in an instant!

"You greenhorn, stop spouting nonsense there! Today, either you die or I perish!"

In order to lure Mu An and the others to continue firing and consuming bullets, the Red-Blooded Old Turtle intentionally stirred up layers of giant waves on the river surface.

It appeared to reveal a flaw, but in reality, it was very cunning.

It was ready to hide in the river at any moment, making it impossible for them to hit it again.

One could only say that the dozens of bullets previously poured onto the Red-Blooded Old Turtle had already made it extremely wary.

But no matter how wary or angry it was, its desire to kill Mu An and the others was just as great.

"Tsk, this is the first time I've seen someone actively seeking death."

Mu An chuckled.

He put down the desert eagle and took out the long sword he carried with him.

As the sword left its sheath, the sharp and cold blade reflected his highly attractive side profile.

"As it happens, I just learned some basic sword techniques earlier, so I'll use you, old geezer, to practice!"

Having said that.

Mu An stepped into the air, one person, one sword, and proactively flew above the surging river surface.

"He... he has cultivation?"

Seeing this scene, Elder Ling, who had been reduced to a spectator throughout the whole process, couldn't help but have his pupils shake.

He originally thought that Mu An and the others were just Mortals possessing special Magical Artifacts.

But he never expected that this young man would not play by the rules, suddenly showing off his strength and even being able to walk in the air.

One must know that this was a hallmark exclusive to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

In other words.

The other party also possessed cultivation in the Foundation Establishment Realm?

[How is that possible? So young?]

[Did he hide his cultivation earlier? I am also in the Foundation Establishment Realm, yet I failed to see it?]

[Come to think of it, how could those following the Ninth Princess all be Mortals...]

For a moment, Elder Ling was shocked beyond measure.

His mind was as chaotic as nine armies at war, each fighting its own battle, none willing to submit to the others.

Therefore.

How was he supposed to look at those Mortals without any spiritual energy aura in the future?

Elder Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly.

On the other side.

Seeing the prey deliver itself to his doorstep, the Red-Blooded Old Turtle almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Although it was also somewhat shocked that this Cultivator of the Human Race had hidden his strength and seemed to have cultivation in the Foundation Establishment Realm, but... so what?

The Cang River was its home turf.

In the face of natural forces far beyond imagination, whether it was the Human Race or the Yao Race, both were incomparably insignificant.

The Red-Blooded Old Turtle didn't even need to fully master this power; it only needed to borrow its momentum to make the other party suffer a big loss!

There was no place to stand on the river surface; walking through the air looked cool, but it required continuous consumption of spiritual energy.

But it was different; it was born to dive into water, and the river water was like its hometown.

In a moment, it just needed to stir up huge waves; even if it couldn't knock him into the water, it could continuously drain his spiritual energy.

In short, one sentence.

It was extremely stupid for the opponent to come to the river to fight with it!

At this moment, Mu An no longer hid anything and openly revealed his cultivation.

"Late... Late Foundation Establishment Stage?"

Elder Ling was shocked once again.

He almost bit his own tongue while speaking.

Previously, he was still thinking that even if Mu An had Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, it would at most be the Early Stage, or at the most exaggerated, the Middle Stage.

At his age, such cultivation was already a Prodigy among Prodigies.

Perhaps even the top of the Prodigy rankings would find it difficult to reach!

As it turned out, when Mu An revealed his strength, it was the Late Foundation Establishment Stage!

Do not think that it was just a matter of being two small Realms higher than Elder Ling.

To say something heartbreaking, he himself had Cultivated for over a hundred years and was only at the Early Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Thinking back, when he, Elder Ling, was young, he was also one of the few with excellent talent among the younger generation!

The path of Cultivating immortality is like sailing against the current; if you do not advance, you retreat.

But every step forward was as difficult as ascending to heaven!

Unlike Elder Ling's shock, the Red-Blooded Old Turtle originally still had concerns.

Now, seeing Mu An's cultivation, it was completely relieved.

A mere Late Foundation Establishment Stage was no different from an ant in its eyes.

It would be nothing more than a bit troublesome to kill, but that was not an issue.

One must know, it was at the Half-step Golden Core Realm!

Below the Golden Core Realm, it was an invincible existence!

"To reach the Late Foundation Establishment Stage at your age, I admit, kid, your talent is amazing."

"But today, you can only stop here."

In his words, he might as well have written the words 'you are here to seek death' on his face.

"Killing you is easy."

Mu An didn't care about the other party's trash talk at all.

"Arrogant!"

The Red-Blooded Old Turtle sneered.

Once, when it was not yet strong.

Upon encountering a strong enemy, it would avoid the fight.

Upon encountering a powerhouse of the same level, it would cautiously retreat.

But now, facing a Human Race brat who was only at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, it, possessing the Half-step Golden Core Realm, decided to be brave once!

It had to strike with a heavy fist to let the other party know that a powerhouse cannot be insulted!

Mu An was ruthless and didn't talk much.

He flicked his finger and directly activated the skills he had previously obtained from the Frog Demon.

True · What is yours is mine!

[Lv8. Tongue Whip], [Lv8. Poisonous Tongue Bind], [Lv7. Frog Sound Shockwave]

All three major skills were activated at once!

The remaining [Frog Breath Technique] was not used.

It was a method for underwater Stealth and fake death to deceive others, with almost zero combat ability, and was not very useful at the moment.

As for why he didn't use skill proficiency to max out these skills before using them...

Mu An also had his own considerations.

If the maxed-out skills were too strong and he accidentally killed this old geezer, the Red-Blooded Old Turtle, what would he do?

Wasn't the other party currently just one step away from achieving the Golden Core Realm?

He wanted to apply a little pressure to 'force' the other party to Breakthrough their Realm.

After all.

The rewards dropped by a Half-step Golden Core Realm would definitely not be as good as a real Golden Core Realm!

It was not easy to encounter a powerful Great Yao with a high Realm, so naturally, he had to 'maximize the benefits'!

Mu · World-class, knows how to calculate carefully, unlicensed accountant · An!

In the blink of an eye.

Three huge phantoms that looked exactly like the purple Frog Demon that had died earlier had already appeared behind Mu An.

They were each casting the three skills.

The tongue was like a long whip, fast as lightning.

The tongue was like a poisonous snake, tricky and deadly.

The frog sound was deafening, an invisible blade.

All three working together, the lethality was extremely strong!

Even the Red-Blooded Old Turtle couldn't help but be stunned when it saw three identical 'underlings' for the first time.

Then it immediately reacted...

Its Frog Demon subordinate was most likely killed by this person!

It was just that this technique of turning others into its own use was something it had never heard of or seen before.

There was no time to think, as the three attacks were already coming towards it.

The Red-Blooded Old Turtle snorted coldly and activated its omnipotent [Eight-Layer Tortoise Shell Technique] again.

"A futile effort!"
