Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 997

"However, according to the records of the Beast Encyclopedia, the Fire Rock Turtle is born timid. If it senses any movement, it will immediately run away and hide. Compared with the Dark Heaven Insect that likes to live at the bottom of caves, the Fire Rock Turtle likes to stay in places with very high temperature, just like the fiery pit it just came out from. So, once it runs away, there is no chance that we can chase it at all. Unlike the Fire Rock Turtle, it's impossible for us to jump into the fiery pit..." Rocky thought for a while and began to analyze the Fire Rock Turtles' habits based from the Beast Encyclopedia's records. He had to consider every way there was to capture the Fire Rock Turtle, because he might only have one chance. If the Fire Rock Turtle escaped into the fiery pit, there would be no chance for him to capture it. It would take an extremely long time before the Fire Rock Turtle came out again from the fiery pit.

Currently, the Fire Rock Turtle was still slowly climbing out of the fiery pit. Its movements were terribly slow, which was natural since it was indeed a turtle. A spirit manipulator who was clueless of the Fire Rock Turtle's habits would have pounced on it impatiently. However, if that happened, then the turtle would definitely be scared away.

With rich experience in capturing the Dark Heaven Insect, Rocky was not in any rush to make a move. He first took out the magical saliva that could attract any spirit-manipulated beast and transferred one drop into an empty bottle. Then he gently put it on the ground, trying not to make any noise. After putting the bottle down, he began to step back slowly.

Since the magical saliva was incredibly irresistible to any spirit-manipulated beast, the Fire Rock Turtle immediately reacted to the magical saliva. Its round head reached out so high to take a look around. It was definitely searching for the magical saliva.

However, the Fire Rock Turtle was a very timid and highly vigilant kind of beast. It kept searching for the magical saliva with its eyes, but its body did not move at all. It was standing very still as if it was too old to move.

"What? Even the magical saliva cannot make the Fire Rock Turtle relax a little?" Rocky murmured to himself. He was dismayed when he saw that the Fire Rock Turtle was not moving towards the magical saliva at all.

A half hour later, just when Rocky was about to lose his patience, the Fire Rock Turtle finally moved. But it was awfully slow, as if it was painful for it to move. It crawled up from the fiery pit with great effort and finally revealed its whole body.

In fact, the Fire Rock Turtles were no different from normal turtles. Except for their fiery red skin, the only unique feature of the Fire Rock Turtles was that they had magnificent ethereal crystals on their backs. These ethereal crystals grew as their protective shells. According to the Beast Encyclopedia, the reason why the ethereal crystals grew on the back of the Fire Rock Turtles was because this kind of turtles were like an elixir refining furnace since they always stayed in places with high temperature. The Fire Rock Turtles always ate rocks which were their favorite food. After they digested the rocks, the minerals from the rocks were mixed with the spiritual energy gathered in their body. Under constantly high temperature, the content after refining was all deposited to the back of the Fire Rock Turtle, thus, finally forming brilliant ethereal crystals.

When Rocky saw that the Fire Rock Turtle was finally climbing up, he immediately hid himself. He retreated to a hideout that was more than ten meters away from the magical saliva. He tried his best not to let the Fire Rock Turtle notice him. At the same time, he made sure that he could catch it with only one move.

Since the Fire Rock Turtle crawled incredibly slowly, it took an hour for it to go from the fiery pit to the place where the magical saliva was placed.

When he saw that the Fire Rock Turtle was near the magical saliva, Rocky pulled out his Frozen Wind Dagger. He assumed his position and he was completely ready to attack.
