In the stomach pouch, due to the desperate struggle of the snapping turtle, the surrounding stomach wall also twisted and undulated, but under the fixation of the metal platform, Xu Yue's figure remained unmoved.

A steady stream of golden-red dots of light were pouring out of his body, gradually filling the entire stomach pouch space.

After a long time, Xu Yue's closed eyes finally opened, and as far as the eye could see, there were gorgeous golden red, and the Yang Yan light points that had consumed thousands of mana transformations were now blocked in this not very vast flesh and blood space.

The terrifying temperature emitted by the light almost burned through the entire stomach wall, and the flesh was sizzling and oozing oil.

"Almost."

Muttering to himself, Xu Yue got up from the platform, the flame wings behind him spread, the metal under his feet turned into a liquid state and merged into his body, he was quietly suspended in the void, his eyes blazing.

"Red Lotus!!"

In the next moment, the red lotus bloomed.

Countless points of light all turned into flames and bloomed, and the entire stomach pouch was instantly extinguished by the violently diffused flames, and a red lotus slowly opened in the abdominal cavity of the snapping turtle.

Where the golden red lotus petals swept by, the flesh and blood turned to ashes, and everything was burned, first the stomach was destroyed, and then all the organs such as the heart, liver, spleen, and lungs were turned into charcoal one by one, until they were completely consumed by the flames.

Outside, the mountain snapping turtle that was still turning over the river and the sea suddenly froze, its flesh and blood were covered with a rich golden red color, the terrifying temperature spread rapidly outward, and the surrounding lake water emerged in an instant with many 'gurgling' bubbles.

It's as if a red-hot soldering iron has been thrown into the lake, and the heat brought by it makes the whole body of water boil instantly.

Immediately after that, the snapping turtle raised its head and roared, and in a mournful roar, a massive amount of pure yang flame gushed out from the holes around it.

The golden-red flame light rose to the sky, forming a shadowy red lotus phantom in the sky above, the phantom covers an extremely wide area, and when the lotus petals unfold layer by layer, it is brilliant and magnificent.

The whole forest was silent, the roar of hunting subsided, and a pair of predators with a faint green glow raised their eyes and looked at the striking and unusual flaming red lotus in the moonlight.

It wasn't until a few breaths later that the phantom of the red lotus slowly dissipated, revealing that all the facial features under the red lotus had been burned by the flames, and only a few deep and hollow snapping glans heads remained on the face.

In the rising large expanse of water vapor, the snapping turtle, which had now been roasted nearly seven minutes old, had lost all its breath as soon as the red lotus was in full bloom, and with a violent roar, its huge body smashed straight into the surface of the lake, slowly sinking.

And in the space of its charred abdomen, a golden-red fireball was suspended in the void, surrounded by internal organs that had been burned into a pile of charcoal.

Suddenly, the fireball trembled slightly, and then unfolded in layers, turning into a silver figure carrying the wings of flames.

[You killed the lord-level creature*Mountain Snapping Turtle]

[Hunter Detected Killing Lord-level Creature for the First Time, Reward 5000 Paradise Coins + Soul Crystals (Small)*3]

[The Mountain Snapping Turtle is a mysterious island lord-level creature, you have obtained 13.5% of the Source of the World, and now you have a total of 26.6% of the Source of the World]

【You have obtained a Lord-level Treasure Chest (Dark Purple)】

……………

The sound of the paradise prompt in his ears disappeared, and looking at the three more small crystals and the dark purple treasure chest in his hand, Xu Yue raised his eyebrows slightly, he was worthy of being a lord-level creature, and the reward was really rich.

Put the soul crystal (small) into the waist bag and put it away, as for the treasure chest, you can only lift it for the time being, even if the treasure chest is only the size of a palm, it is not the volume that the waist bag can hold.

At this moment, he misses the savings space of the paradise very much, but unfortunately his mental space is only a spiritual world, which cannot contain materials, otherwise let alone the treasure chest in his hand, even if it is a whole snapping turtle, he can pack it and take it away.

Retracting his thoughts from his imagination, Xu Yue turned his head to look at the left side of the space, where a large amount of water was pouring out of the hole connecting to the outside world, and it seemed that the snapping turtle should have sunk to the bottom of the lake, so there was a situation where the water flowed into the body.

In this situation, Xu Yue would not rashly choose to break out of his body, even if he wrapped his whole body with flame wings, he did not dare to guarantee that he would not be eroded by the mysterious factor.

But fortunately, he still has a way out for himself, which can effectively avoid this risk.

Roughly estimating the speed of the spread of the water, he took out the magic mirror he carried with him, and with the injection of mana, a mirror portal was quickly formed.

…………

In the dense forest at the edge of the lake, Xu Yue stepped out from the full-length mirror, and Ah Fu's concerned inquiry sounded in his ears for the first time.

"Master, you're not hurt, are you?"

"No problem."

With a casual wave of his hand, Xu Yue threw the shrunken magic mirror body to Ah Fu along with the dark purple treasure chest in his hand, and then looked sideways at the lake in the distance.

At this time, after the lake has been ravaged by snapping turtles, it is completely different from the quiet and beautiful scene not long ago.

Under the cold moonlight, the corpses of aquatic creatures of different sizes, shapes, mutilations, or intact were spreading across the surface of the lake, and the blood they oozed spread and spread, soaking the blue water of the lake with a scarlet color.

Although the snapping turtle died at the hands of Xu Yue, before leaving, it successfully took away more than 70% of the alienated creatures in this lake.

From the tragic situation in front of him alone, it is not difficult to see how strong the snapping turtle's actual combat power is, that is to the extent that it can crush all the creatures in the entire lake, but unfortunately it has met Xu Yue, the master who blasts from the body.

With thousands of mana accumulation + three times the xenomorph damage of pure Yang Yan + a large creature damage bonus of the Salvation Brave, the lethality of his red lotus can be called off the charts.

Even if the length of the snapping turtle's blood bar is exaggerated, it is instantly emptied by a red lotus, and even the recovery power of the 500% increase in the water area cannot be exerted at all, so it can be said that he died quite aggrieved.

Lightly sweeping across the lake in front of him, Xu Yue behaved extremely blandly, although in a sense, this bloody tragedy was completely triggered by him, but it was obvious that he didn't care.

In a flash, a thick pillar of purple fire suddenly rose in the center of the lake, and the number of fires formed by the burning of the huge body of the snapping turtle was extremely large, and the purple flame of the demon scorched the sky and the earth, driving away all the moonlight pouring from the sky, and at the same time completely covering the surface of the lake below, and the dense corpses became even more eerie and terrifying in the purple fire.

In the next second, the rising pillar of fire collapsed into countless fire snakes, which swam quickly towards the canopy of a giant tree at the edge of the lake, and finally rushed into Xu Yue's body.

A few minutes passed, and the fire gushing out of the lake came to an end, and as the last fire snake entered his body, Xu Yue opened his bloodshot eyes.

While it would not be wise to forcibly absorb such a large number of fires in the treacherous forest, one of the main reasons he hunted snapping turtles was for the souls of the other party.

Therefore, even if he took a little risk, he had to completely devour these generated fires, otherwise the ingested snapping turtle spirit body would not be complete.

Shaking his head that had become a little heavy, Xu Yue endured the fine stinging pain coming from his brain, he looked sideways at Ah Fu beside him, and said in a deep voice:

"Withdraw!"

As the words fell, two black shadows jumped out of the canopy, and quickly disappeared into the vast forest sea after a few jumps, leaving only a few miniature monitors hidden in the branches and leaves, and the mechanical eyes kept turning, closely observing all corners of the lake.

Although the lake is extremely dead and silent now, it is because the remnants of the snapping turtle are still there, with the exaggerated movement of the red lotus just now, and the rich smell of blood that is gradually spreading now, the edge of the lake has long been unknown how many apex predators have gathered.

Once they were sure that the snapping turtle was really dead, it would soon fall into a predator's eating spree, and Xu Yue's current condition was naturally not suitable to stay longer.

As for the miniature monitor placed here, it was to see if any civilized creatures would infested the lake in the future.

After all, the original reason for his search for water was to find the existence of civilized tribes, and he never forgot this purpose.
