Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 114 The Unknown Terror in the Clouds

Yu Changsheng did not stop Wang Xinyu from escaping. He ignored the exclamations from below and glanced at the Azure Serpent that he had not yet retracted.

Yu Changsheng did not hesitate and commanded the Crimson Serpent and the Golden-Winged Eagle to attack continuously, but the opponent found an opportunity to slip off the cloud platform.

At this moment, the stage became quiet, with only Yu Changsheng and his spirit pet remaining.

However, Yu Changsheng's expression did not relax much. Instead, he looked solemn and stared intently at the thick fog drifting over from below the cloud platform, not daring to relax.

The thick fog seemed like a gaping maw, teeming with ferocious beasts and raging floods.

All of this is a long story, but from the moment Yu Changsheng suddenly made his move until the end, only a few breaths had passed.

He had been observing from the shadows, intending to strike when the three were both severely injured, and then reap the benefits.

However, the fog around him grew thicker and thicker, and it was extremely unusual. Even his divine sense, which was comparable to that of a Golden Core cultivator, was obstructed and he could not see clearly.

The unease in his heart grew stronger and stronger. Moreover, he could see that although the two on the stage had temporarily joined forces, they were both wary of each other and had not really gone all out. It was impossible to determine a winner in the short term.

Left with no other choice, Yu Changsheng couldn't wait any longer and had to seize the opportunity to go on stage and wipe out the entire field in a flash.

"The elder who presided over the competition said that there are many dangerous environments in Yuntai Valley, and only Yuntai is a relatively safe place."

"However, thanks to my divine sense, I managed to avoid any serious dangers along the way."

On the cloud platform, Yu Changsheng held his breath and muttered to himself.

"Could it be that this fog is the real danger? Or is it an unexpected turn of events?"

Yu Changsheng exerted all his strength to open his divine sense and closely monitored everything around him, although he couldn't see much in this strange, thick fog.

But he could vaguely sense that an unknown, enormous, illusory silhouette lurked within it.

The illusory silhouette was as deep and unfathomable as the ocean. Even the unintentional aura it revealed gave Yu Changsheng a sense of unfathomable depth. Just by sensing it, his face turned pale, unable to bear it.

In contrast, Yu Changsheng's spirit pets, whether it was the Crimson Serpent or the more powerful Colorful Star Deer, were all agitated and their bodies were trembling slightly as if they were being suppressed.

However, the phantom seemed to have no ill intentions. To Yu Changsheng, it was more of a source of amusement and curiosity.

"Hurry up and get over this incense stick's time."

Yu Changsheng had no other choice and dared not gamble. He spread out his three spirit pets to form the Four Extremes Spirit Beast Formation, preparing for battle while silently calculating the time.

According to the trial rules, as long as you can occupy a cloud platform by yourself for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, you will be considered successful and will be teleported out afterwards.

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn quickly passed. Just then, the thick fog below the cloud platform suddenly churned, as if some enormous creature had turned over inside, thus causing the wind and clouds to change.

"Tsk tsk tsk"

That was the sound of a snake's tongue rapidly flicking in and out, urgent yet filled with inexplicable terror.

"Ah, Azure Serpent! No, no, no, come any closer! What is this thing?! No, no, I still..."

This is Wang Xinyu's voice.

The screams, sharp and filled with indescribable fear, were weak and abruptly stopped as they pierced through the clouds.

"Snap, snap!"

Instead of the words that were about to be spoken, there was a chilling chewing sound. Clearly, the being inside seemed to be chopping away quickly, finding it delicious, and couldn't help but let out a burp.

Yu Changsheng, standing on the cloud platform, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and a sense of anxiety inevitably arose in his heart.

"Wang Xinyu and her Azure Serpent should be gone."

Yu Changsheng slowly exhaled a long breath, and a drop of sweat rolled down his cheek.

He could feel a strange gaze on him from below the cloud platform.

It seems to be considering whether to eat or not. If it does eat, how should it begin?

Yu Changsheng was momentarily dazed. Within his mind, fear surged like a tidal wave, transforming into a gigantic, all-encompassing blood python that covered everything and devoured him!

"No! No!"

Yu Changsheng suddenly opened his eyes wide, his mind jolted, and he bit his tongue hard, his mouth turning bright red. The intense pain also helped him regain some clarity.

"My emotions are off; I shouldn't be so afraid."

Coming to his senses, Yu Changsheng let out a long breath, his face covered in cold sweat, and his back was soaked.

"That presence in the mist can affect my mind! Amplify my emotions!"

"Even with my spiritual power comparable to a Golden Core cultivator, I can be affected by it... This kind of being is far beyond my ability to contend with!"

Upon realizing this reality, Yu Changsheng's expression turned somewhat grim, and he looked up at the light screen covering the cloud platform.

"What exactly is hidden in this Yuntai Valley? Why would the elder presiding over the competition let in a third-tier demonic beast?"

"Or is it not some kind of monster?"

Just as this thought arose, the thick fog around them suddenly churned up again, and a small portion of it surged toward the light screen.

The moment it was touched, the light screen flickered and changed, as if it would shatter in the next instant.

"No way?"

Yu Changsheng's eyes widened.

At this moment, there are only ten breaths left until the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!

But the light screen only flickered for a moment. The next instant, in the center of the cloud platform, where Yu Changsheng was standing, golden ripples rippled in circles and were imprinted on the light screen.

Golden streaks appeared on the original light screen, and the spiderweb-patterned fabric was quickly repaired, reinforced, and maintained.

No matter how hard the fog pushed, it only created ripples of gold, clearly unable to break through in a short time.

Seeing this, Yu Changsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, this gimbal has a reinforcement and protection method."

In that instant, five breaths had passed, and there were only five breaths left until the incense stick had burned.

The thought had barely formed in his mind when the being in the mist seemed to take it in, and in the dim light, Yu Changsheng thought he saw a long head.

It's not a snake's head, but it does resemble one somewhat—a turtle?

A whooshing sound was heard.

The call was not unpleasant or harsh, but rather like flowing water, the wind blowing, the rain falling, or the clouds drifting and rolling.

It flowed slowly into the depths of the soul, spreading throughout the sea of ​​consciousness and every part of the body, carrying indescribable fluctuations, even causing the surrounding spiritual energy to tremble.

Even the spiritual energy on Yu Changsheng's body fluctuated, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, undulating like the ebb and flow of tides and the rolling of clouds, in accordance with the sound.

"puff"

With his qi and blood in disarray, Yu Changsheng's face flushed red, then turned deathly pale. He felt a sweet taste in his throat, opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of blood, becoming unsteady on his feet.

"Click click click"

The light screen of the gimbal, which had just been reinforced, was cracked again and could no longer withstand the pressure.

"Buzzing"

In an instant, the cloud platform shone with golden light, and a vast power surged forth, instantly enveloping every part of the cloud platform!

Two more breaths passed! Only three breaths remained until the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and a wave of teleportation was brewing, preparing to activate.
