CHAPTER 3087 EXTREMELY STUBBORN

Before he could even react, the cultivator had been knocked over by the jets of pitch-black water and fallen into the Night Sea.

For a brief second, he struggled to stay afloat before vanishing into the depths of the Night Sea without a trace.

“What an idiot. How dare he insult the divine turtles by calling them animals? He might as well wish death upon himself.”

“These divine turtles have long developed higher-order thinking. Did he think that they couldn't understand our language just because they have not taken the form of a human being?”

Not a hint of grief could be found among the crowd as they spectated the sudden, brutal death of the cultivator. Instead, they were all sneering gleefully.

The divine turtles were powerful, yet they had never attacked humans unprovoked. Unsurprisingly, most of the cultivators had grown fond of them.

Despite the cultivator's instant death, the crowd believed he had been let off easy for bad-mouthing such divine creatures.

While the masses were discussing the gruesome death of the cultivator, the gigantic divine turtle had already taken Jared more than five kilometers away.

Squinting their eyes to focus better, the crowd searched the sea surface for a glimpse of Jared, but to no avail.

When they realized that Jared was nowhere to be found, the people sighed wistfully.

“How silly to give up one's own life to tame a divine turtle.”

“He sure overestimated himself. He's merely at Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm, yet he dared to try taming not only any divine turtle but the biggest one there is!”

“What if that guy manages to tame the biggest divine turtle? We'll have to eat our words.”

“If that's the case, Mr. Leaveden would be the most embarrassed.”

As the crowd of cultivators discussed with each other, they turned their gazes toward Dalton.

Earlier, most of them were focusing on Jared, with not many of them paying Dalton any attention. Hence, with Jared no longer in their field of sight, the crowd instinctively turned to watch Dalton.

In the meantime, at the realization of Jared's disappearance, Quinley and Cloud felt as though icy fingers had wrapped around their hearts.

Even though the two of them were well aware of Jared's capabilities, the fact remained that he was at the Night Sea and not on land. If anything were to happen to him, there would be no escape!

“Ms. Tall, your brother might not be powerful, but he sure is courageous. I'm surprised he dared to try and tame a divine turtle, not to mention the biggest one there is!” Just then, Zordey felt a newfound sense of admiration for Jared. Regardless of what his opinion of Jared was, the latter's ruthless vigor was something to be in awe of.

Quinley merely turned a deaf ear to Zordey's comments. As of then, her mind had been taken captive by anxious thoughts of Jared's safety. She was so consumed by worry that she could not spare a single second for Zordey.

Meanwhile, Dalton had gone from standing to laying flat on his stomach and holding tightly onto the divine turtle's shell. His hands had long turned into a horrendous blend of blood and flesh from the sheer force of gripping the shell's sharp edges.

There were a few near misses where he almost got thrown into the Night Sea, but Dalton had no plans on giving up. He knew what was at stake. If he could not tame a divine turtle, his and Rosetta's presence in the spirit ship would eventually be detected. It was only a matter of when.

If they were discovered by Demon Seal Alliance, there would be no chance of escaping!

For Rosetta's sake, Dalton was determined to give it his all.

At the sight of Dalton's preservation, many cultivators on the spirit ship grew to respect him.

“Who's that guy? He seems to be trying hard. Just look at the extent of the wounds on his hands!”

“No clue. There's no sign of an aura from him. He must be a different breed to tackle a divine turtle purely on brute strength.”

“Wow. I can't believe people are actually willing to forsake their lives to tame a divine turtle.”

Once again, the crowd began to murmur as they took in the scene in front of them. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Amid their nonchalant faces, Rosetta stood out as she kept her eyes on Dalton with a panicked expression.

As of that moment, Jared was more than five kilometers away from the spirit ship. He was still trying to communicate with the divine turtle with his spiritual sense. To his dismay, the divine turtle was extremely stubborn. It kept resisting with all its might, refusing to allow Jared's spiritual sense to trespass its consciousness field.

Half an hour had passed since Jared began to try and tame it. Even though the divine turtle was enormous, exhaustion was beginning to chip away at its strength as it slowly decelerated. Nevertheless, it still refused to surrender to Jared.

Seeing how stubborn the divine turtle was, Jared turned around to make sure the spirit ship was nowhere to be seen before unleashing the Power of Dragons within his body.

A mighty Golden Dragon appeared with a roar and circled above Jared's head.
