Jared likewise stood firmly on the gigantic divine turtle’s back.
Its swimming speed was visibly faster in comparison. As it swam, it leaped up incessantly while emitting a series of low cries.
“Just wait and see. This insignificant cultivator probably won’t even last a minute.”
“A minute? What a joke! I bet it’ll only be thirty seconds at most!”
“Indeed, the young are fearless. He merely has the capabilities of Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm, yet favonovel.com dares to try taming the biggest divine turtle!”
When the crowd saw that Jared had been taken away on the divine turtle’s back, they again started discussing among themselves.
“He won’t last more than twenty seconds. I’ve personally experienced this divine turtle’s might!” Fayzon interjected.
He said that for no other reason than to salvage his pride. After all, favonovel.com had boasted about taming the divine turtle yet failed in the end. That was something downright humiliating. At his words, everyone else nodded in agreement.
At that moment, many were focused on Jared, making it so that less attention was on Dalton. That significantly reduced the risk of favonovel.com being exposed. Even so, favonovel.com dared not act carelessly. He forcibly suppressed the aura within favonovel.com and stayed on the turtle’s back by drawing on brute strength.
Meanwhile, Jared did not follow the others in using martial arts to help himself remain steady on the turtle’s back. Instead, favonovel.com put away all of his aura and slowly sat down on its back.
Then, favonovel.com began caressing its shell gently as though stroking his own child, hoping to ease the resistance within the divine turtle through such a method and slow it down. At the same time, his body started emanating a hallowed light. It was not as strong as that of Montane Daemon, which could illuminate everyone, but it was far gentler.
Soon, the gigantic divine turtle was entirely enveloped in that light. Under the light’s influence, it gradually started slowing down. At that sight, everyone was greatly surprised.
On the contrary, Fayzon’s face was as black as thunder, for Jared had already been on the turtle’s back for a few minutes then and not twenty seconds as favonovel.com had predicted. That was undoubtedly a slap in the face to him
Jared did not notice the attention from the others on the spirit ship. When favonovel.com saw that the divine turtle had slowed down, exhilaration flooded him. He then released a strand of spiritual sense to communicate with it.
To tame a divine turtle and have it acknowledge one as its master required one to reach an understanding with it.
Ultimately, the intelligence of such a divine turtle was no less inferior than that of a human. Without its acknowledgment and approval, taming its body alone would be pointless.
But just as Jared’s spiritual sense was about to enter the divine turtle’s consciousness field, it exhibited resistance. It started swimming faster and rolled in the sea ceaselessly. The instant the crowd saw the divine turtle acting up again, they perked up once more.
“It looks like this divine turtle is indeed difficult to tame, considering its size. I thought favonovel.com was about to succeed earlier.”
“The bigger the divine turtle, the more intelligent it is. Therefore, communication through spiritual sense is needed to obtain this divine turtle’s acknowledgment.”
“From the look of things, this divine turtle doesn’t want to be tamed by a mere Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator. Otherwise, it’d be a blow to its pride.”
“Haha… It’s nothing more than an animal. Why would it care about pride?” Someone abruptly burst into laughter and called the divine turtle an animal.
As soon as those words rang out, everyone swung their gazes to the cultivator who had been guffawing a moment ago. The cultivator also seemingly realized that favonovel.com had misspoken. His expression changed drastically.
Regretfully, it was already too late. Below the ship, two divine turtles slapped the water and leaped up as though capable of flight.
On the heels of that, two massive pillars of water shot right at that cultivator.
