Being able to last for two hours was already enough to allow them to advance for a long distance. However, this was still not enough.
Chu Ze said worriedly, “Let’s think of another way. If it’s only for two hours, I’m afraid that something might happen.”
“Alright, we’ll talk about it when the time comes. I don’t have any other way now.”
Li Manman also shook her head, Chu Ze said, “Alright, I don’t have any way to replenish your spiritual power either. Let’s just advance like this. In two hours, we’ll use one hour. If we can’t reach the energy core, we’ll retreat.”
After advancing for a distance, Chu Ying said, “I didn’t expect this giant beast to look so powerful but the defense inside its body is actually so low.”
Chu Ze rolled his eyes at Chu Ying and said, “What can you do if a few people get into your stomach? I’m afraid you are not as powerful as the giant beast.”
Chu Ying stuck out her tongue and continued to move toward the energy wave they felt. They could still encounter the giant beast’s clones from time to time, but they were not very strong, so they could still deal with them.
Madman, who was outside, had already gotten someone to fix the giant cannon. Now, they were about to fire the second cannonball.
Li Feng stood behind the giant cannon and watched nervously. He hoped that the giant cannon could directly kill the giant beast. If it still did not work, they were afraid that they would have to engage in close combat with the giant beast.
After this period of hard work, the giant beast was about to drill out of the mythical realm.
Originally, the giant beast was stuck in the middle, which was also the widest part of its body. As long as the giant beast drilled a little forward, it would be able to come out.
Madman looked at the people around him and said, “Everyone, retreat from the position of the giant cannon.”
Then, all the Pioneers began to move away from the giant cannon.
Madman was afraid that the Black Tortoise would be able to bounce the cannonball back. It didn’t matter if it was a giant cannon. Even if it was broken, it could be remade. However, they had spent a lot of money to cultivate these Pioneers, and he didn’t know if he would be able to meet such a talented person in the future.
Therefore, even if the giant cannon was damaged, he couldn’t let the Pioneers suffer any casualties.
Madman himself had also distanced himself from the giant cannon. Now, he was using the remote control. After everyone had retreated, Madman pressed the remote control in his hand.
With a loud boom, a cannonball was shot out from the flames.
The cannonball shot out from the giant cannon had been specially made. Madman felt that the cannonball would definitely be able to break through the defense of the Black Tortoise.
The Black Tortoise also sensed the movement in this place. Then, it raised its head to take a look. It realized that these people were actually using the giant cannon to bombard it.
The Black Tortoise laughed disdainfully. Then, its body lit up with an earthen yellow light.
This was the skill that had rebounded the giant cannon’s attack previously. The Black Tortoise planned to use this skill again to deflect this cannonball.
Because this cannonball was no different from the last time when it was launched, and this cannonball did not have any spiritual power fluctuations, the Black Tortoise did not notice that this cannonball was different from the last time.
Madman saw that this Black Tortoise actually did not dodge, and still used the same skill from the last time to block the cannonball. Then, Madman laughed. This time, it would definitely hit.
The cannonball instantly approached the earthen yellow light released by the Black Tortoise. Then, the Black Tortoise realized that there was something wrong with the cannonball.
That was because the last cannonball was directly bounced back once it got close to the earthen yellow light. However, this cannonball actually gave it a feeling that it could penetrate the earthen yellow light.
The strong sense of danger made the Black Tortoise subconsciously dodge. However, it was stuck at the entrance of the mythical realm and could not move its body at all. Therefore, it could only lock its head in its stomach.
With a loud boom, the Pioneers who were far away from the Black Tortoise felt the tremors in the place.
In the next moment, thick smoke rose up. Everyone could see that the four legs that the Black Tortoise had used to exert force were instantly pressed down.
The Black Tortoise’s entire body was lying on the ground.
When Madman saw this situation, he laughed. “Hahaha, it seems that this huge cannon is finally effective. Continue, reload.”
After saying this, Madman continued to observe the direction of the Black Tortoise. He wanted to wait for the thick smoke to disperse and see if the Black Tortoise was injured.
Then, he heard the Black Tortoise’s angry roar from within the thick smoke. Madman laughed even more happy when he heard this voice.
The Black Tortoise was angry. This meant that the cannon had really injured the Black Tortoise.
However, the next moment, a gust of wind blew over and the thick smoke dispersed. Madman saw that there were no wounds on the Black Tortoise’s back.
However, the Black Tortoise lay on the ground and did not move. Madman did not know why.
Madman thought for a moment and said, “From the Black Tortoise’s voice just now, I can tell that the Black Tortoise was injured, but why are there no wounds at all?”
Li Feng was about to speak when he saw the Black Tortoise move. When the Black Tortoise stood up, they heard a crack.
The sound of the crack was so loud that even the Pioneers several kilometers away could hear it.
Li Feng’s eyes widened, and then he saw a huge crack suddenly appear on the back of the Black Tortoise.
This crack radiated outwards like a spider web from a central point.
Seeing this, Madman hurriedly commanded the Pioneers beside him, “Quickly reload, aim at the previous firing point, give me another shot.”
After Madman finished his command, he looked at the Black Tortoise and discovered that the crack behind the Black Tortoise was actually healing at an extremely fast speed.
Madman was anxious, “Quick! Quick! Before that crack heals, you must fire a second shot.”
Hearing Madman’s words, the Pioneers started to get busy. However, the loading of this cannon was too troublesome.
This wasn’t like a normal cannon that only needed to change cannonballs. It also needed to change a lot of energy blocks.
However, these Pioneers’ speed was very fast. It was just that they didn’t know if they could finish loading before the crack healed completely.
The few people who were moving forward in the giant beast’s body suddenly felt a violent tremor. Moreover, the internal organs of the giant beast were convulsing as if there was a magnitude-8 earthquake.
This kind of violent collision made Chu Ze somewhat dazed. However, he knew that it was definitely an attack from the people outside.
However, the attack this time was much fiercer than the previous one.
Chu Ze smiled and said, “Maybe we don’t even need to do anything. Those people outside will be able to take care of this giant beast.”
Chu Ying curled her lips and said, “This giant beast’s recovery speed is so fast. How could those people outside take care of the giant beast so easily?”
After they turned a corner in the giant beast’s body, they suddenly saw a large space. This space looked familiar to Chu Ze.
He had fought with the giant beast’s clones here before, but this space was very different from before.
