Ancient Being

The spatial slash descended toward the mountain. Just before it could strike, the entire mountain trembled once again. A terrifying pressure spread across the island, and the spatial slash suddenly slowed as though an invisible force was pressing down on it. Every meter it advanced became more difficult than the last until, with a loud explosion, the slash shattered into countless fragments and disappeared.

Slowly, the enormous mountain stood up, revealing itself to be a gigantic turtle-like beast. Its shell resembled an ancient mountain range covered with rocks, trees, and vegetation that had grown over countless years.
