Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 250 The Victory or Defeat is Over

Outside, a group of disciples below the arena displayed various expressions and made numerous speculations.

Due to the Heavenly Shadow Dragon Domain, the arena was completely dark, so they were unaware of what was happening inside. They could only vaguely see flashes of lightning and thunder, and they had their own judgment on the specific battle situation.

Only elders with exceptional spiritual insight, like Yu Changsheng, could see through the darkness and discern the true situation.

"Divine Might Tiger, Thunder-Controlling Tiger..."

"Azure Dragon, Sky Shadow Dragon..."

"These two really have a lot of hidden cards up their sleeves, but Senior Brother Zhang..."

Yu Changsheng smiled wryly, astonished by the methods displayed by the two. He had to admit that if he were to face Yang Chengxu now, he would have no chance of winning.

"Yes, putting everything else aside, Yang Chengxu does have some reason to be arrogant. Even though Senior Brother Zhang has gone all out, Yang Chengxu still looks relaxed."

Li Minghan, standing to the side, nodded in agreement, his expression quite emotional.

Yu Changsheng turned his head and glanced at Li Minghan. Clearly, the other party also had his own methods to see through the darkness and understand the battle situation.

"However, Yang Chengxu's Heavenly Shadow Dragon seems to have some problems. If Senior Brother Zhang can continue to persevere, it's not impossible."

After a moment's hesitation, Li Minghan's eyes gleamed, and he said this.

"Hmm." Yu Changsheng nodded, which was taken as his approval.

He could also see that the bloodline fluctuations of Tianxiao Yinglong were unstable, as if the advancement was only half completed. This was probably why Yang Chengxu had only asked Tianxiao Yinglong to show up now.

"Summoning his tamed beast to fight during his advancement and evolution, Yang Chengxu seems determined to win this match. Such a risky move could easily result in him injuring the Heavenly Shadow Dragon and suffering a backlash. Not only would his bloodline decline, but he himself would likely be seriously injured as well."

Li Minghan swallowed hard, squinted, and spoke.

Yu Changsheng remained silent, but his divine sense spread out in greater detail as he observed every move on the arena, his brows furrowing slightly.

On the arena, the battle had reached a fever pitch.

The space around Zhang Tianwen was sealed off. Above, below, left, and right, there were countless shadows of the gaping maws of the Sky Shadow Dragon. Above the sky, streaks of green swords fell from the heavens, adding a touch of red and green to the darkness.

A strong sense of crisis almost erupted in Zhang Tianwen's mind, his face was gloomy and ugly, and he glanced at the Thunder-Controlling Spirit Tiger and the Divine Might Spirit Tiger with a flick of his sleeve.

"Thunder, Metal, Tiger's Roar Sword!"

The Thunder-Controlling Spirit Tiger and the Divine Might Spirit Tiger understood each other. In an instant, the simple yet domineering "King" character on their foreheads flashed brightly, and two projections appeared in the darkness in front of them.

A projection, flashing with dazzling white light, revealed a golden luster flowing within upon closer inspection. The simple character "王" (king) contained the meaning of dominance and supremacy since ancient times.

Another projection, also a king character, was projected from the forehead of the Thunder-Controlling Tiger. It was composed of lightning, surrounded by arcs of electricity, and instantly tore through the surrounding darkness, causing Ling Tian's aura to rise and explode.

"Roar roar roar!!!"

The Thunder-Controlling Tiger and the Divine Might Tiger roared simultaneously, their front legs trembling at the same time. A beam of platinum light and a beam of purple lightning erupted from their respective bodies and entered the two "King" characters.

Suddenly, an even more astonishing storm began to brew. The two "King" characters began to merge, and in the process of constant transformation, they gradually condensed into an enormous sword made of platinum, surrounded by purple and blue lightning, with a bronze hue and mysterious patterns engraved on it.

"Buzzing!!!"

The sword hummed softly, the void trembled, and lightning from the sky was drawn down. Along with the astonishing aura that rose, an increasingly domineering intent also emerged.

"This strike will end everything!"

Zhang Tianwen roared, and the two tigers beside him roared again. Thunderbolts fell from the sky, transforming into thunder dragons that ravaged the void. Drawn by the sword, they struck the black sky.

"Sizzle sizzle..."

Arcs of electricity crackled, and the Gengjin Thunder Sword struck with lightning speed, transforming into an extreme shadow. Wherever it passed, the blood dragon collapsed, the green blade dissipated, and the Heavenly Shadow Dragon's ultimate attack was torn open.

The light from the outside world shone in again, and the figures of the Azure Dragon and the Sky Shadow Dragon were fully revealed.

This sword is incredibly domineering. The two dragons are enraged and their dragon might is unleashed, but it cannot affect its speed in the slightest. At this moment, it is shimmering with a faint light. As the sword tip turns, it suddenly pierces through the void and strikes the Heavenly Shadow Dragon!

Its speed was so fast that even its afterimage was barely visible; only the faint traces of electric arcs in the air proved its existence.

"The ashes fade, the night never ends! The darkness reigns in place of Heaven!"

In the critical moment, in haste, the Heavenly Shadow Dragon swung its tail, striking the Gengjin Thunder Sword. While providing slight obstruction, its four horns simultaneously glowed.

Nearly half of the dragon scales on the Sky Shadow Dragon's body suddenly flew out and continuously assembled in mid-air to form another defense. On each scale, a dense, ink-like darkness surged, connecting with each other and forming a unified whole. The defense it formed also had a sense of indestructibility.

"Click, click..."

The Gengjin Thunder Sword slammed into the black dragon scales, and with just one strike, thirty percent of the dragon scales collapsed. The Azure Dragon roared and seized the opportunity to use its six claws to rip through the void, grabbing the Thunder Sword and smashing it with all its might. In an instant, the sword vanished, and the massive bodies of the Thunder-Controlling Tiger and the Divine Might Tiger trembled and collapsed to the ground.

But this was not the end. After blocking the sword, the remaining dragon scales of the Sky Shadow Dragon, which had almost disregarded the cost of its attack, instantly transformed into the sharpest weapons. They rushed through the void and, under the pull of the Azure Dragon and the Sky Shadow Dragon themselves, connected by their dark energy, flew towards the Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder Tiger!

"Wan Lei Tian Lao Yin!"

Zhang Tianwen's expression changed, a hint of struggle in his eyes. But at this moment, the Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder Control Tiger had just unleashed their ultimate moves and were exhausted. Faced with the Heavenly Shadow Dragon's attack, which was willing to sacrifice half of its dragon scales, they could only barely resist!

"Boom!!!"

The Thunder-Controlling Tiger glowed, and the character "King" on its forehead flashed again. Above the sky, a violent aura brewed once more, and the rain, which had paused slightly, suddenly intensified. Bolts of lightning pierced through the clouds, their power directly bombarding the arena.

In an instant, the area around the Thunder Tiger became a sea of ​​lightning, with thunder surging like a tide and roaring towards the dark dragon scales.

"hold head high!!!"

The half-bald Sky Shadow Dragon cried out, its dark dragon scales enhanced. As they swirled together, they crashed into the sea of ​​lightning, causing darkness to surge and the lightning to dissipate.

"roar!!!"

Purple lightning raged, obliterating pieces of dark dragon scales, but also breaking through obstacles, like a rain of pear blossoms, fiercely piercing into the bodies of the Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder-Controlling Tiger.

"Sizzle sizzle..."

Flesh and blood flew everywhere as sharp dragon scales, gleaming with black light, pierced deep into the bodies of the Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder-Controlling Tiger. Points of black light rapidly spread from the piercing point to every part of the Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder-Controlling Tiger's bodies.

"The Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder-Controlling Tiger!"

Zhang Tianwen cried out in grief, reaching out to touch them. Streaks of green light entered the two tigers, healing their injuries.

"roar!!!"

The Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder-Controlling Tiger roared, raising their heads. The domineering aura in their eyes did not diminish in the slightest, but their voices seemed weak and lacking in power.

Black dragon scales pierced through flesh and blood, and drops of blood flowed down. The two tigers were riddled with wounds and holes.

The Heavenly Shadow Dragon was also in a bad state. It let out a loud cry, and the remaining dragon scales flew back. A black phantom covered the dragon's body, temporarily making up for the damage. Its four dragon horns flickered, and its aura dropped to the extreme. Yang Chengxu waved his hand and summoned the Heavenly Shadow Dragon back to his inner world with a gloomy expression.

This attack was a Pyrrhic victory, killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of its own. The Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder Tiger were severely injured, and the Heavenly Shadow Dragon's condition was also extremely poor.

"Shall we continue?"

Yang Chengxu spoke coldly, slightly out of breath, glancing at the Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder-Controlling Tiger. The Azure Dragon beside him protected them, its azure light flashing.

"..."

Zhang Tianwen remained silent, a bitter smile playing on his lips. After a long while, he stroked the Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder-Controlling Tiger, his gaze gradually softening.

"Roar!!"

The two tigers shook their heads, seemingly sensing Zhang Tianwen's thoughts, their roars filled with fighting spirit and resentment.

"You've worked hard, it's already very good."

Zhang Tianwen spoke softly, soothing the two tigers as he waved his hand, and the Divine Might Tiger and the Thunder-Controlling Tiger transformed into two streams of light, being summoned back to the inner realm.

After doing all this, Zhang Tianwen sighed softly again, looked up at Yang Chengxu with a cold gaze and a hint of regret, and walked off the stage without looking back.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"Yang Chengxu of the Spirit Dragon Sect wins this match!"

After a moment of silence, Mo Pengchen announced the results with a calm expression, though a hint of regret flashed across his eyes.

After a long silence, the disciples below the arena looked at each other, and then a complete uproar ensued.

The people of the Myriad Manifestations Sect were surprised by this result, while the people of the Spirit Dragon Sect were delighted.

Yang Chengxu's expression remained unchanged as he watched Zhang Tianwen's departing figure. His clenched fist trembled almost imperceptibly, and a trace of crimson blood silently spilled from the corner of his mouth, only to be licked away by him.

"If you were at your peak, I might not be your match..."

A thought flashed through his mind. Yang Chengxu let out a soft breath, smiled calmly, and then put the Azure Dragon back into his inner world before stepping off the stage.

"The rest is much simpler. At this point, it's practically a sure thing."

.........

"Senior Brother Zhang, are you alright?"

Yu Changsheng and Li Minghan stepped forward to support Zhang Tianwen, who was staggering, and spoke with concern.

"It's alright, just be careful."

Zhang Tianwen waved his hand, suppressed his surging blood and qi, took out a pill and swallowed it, his expression slightly bitter.

"I lost. Yang Chengxu is indeed as good as his reputation. I am no match for him."

Zhang Tianwen sighed softly, his expression regretful.

"He was just lucky, it doesn't matter, he's already done a great job."

Li Minghan opened his mouth indignantly, but then stopped himself from speaking.

"The remaining match depends on you, Changsheng. Although you lost, you must have seen through Yang Chengxu's trump card."

Zhang Tianwen thought for a moment, then smiled wryly and said:

"Moreover, his Sky Shadow Dragon is also seriously injured and is at a critical moment of evolution. If nothing unexpected happens, he will not be able to let the Sky Shadow Dragon out in the next battle for various reasons. If something unexpected happens and the bloodline advancement fails, the risk is too great and the loss will not outweigh the gain."

"Now that's done, you've cut off one of his arms. Changsheng, you still have a chance."

Upon hearing this, Yu Changsheng remained silent for a moment, then nodded and said softly:

"Okay, I understand. Just take good care of yourself, Senior Brother Zhang. I'll do my best to help with the rest."

"Well, just do your best. If..." Zhang Tianwen exhaled, patted Yu Changsheng's shoulder, a look of reminiscence on his face, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

"If...it were still here. Everything would be so much simpler."

Zhang Tianwen said in a low voice, and then let out a barely perceptible sigh. He spoke these words very softly, but the emotions contained within them were a mixture of feelings.

Li Minghan and Yu Changsheng exchanged a glance, both hesitant, unsure of what to say.

"Yes, if it were the old Senior Brother Zhang, Yang Chengxu wouldn't dare to be so arrogant."

After a long pause, Li Minghan swallowed and exhaled.

They had learned most of the details about Zhang Tianwen these days. If it weren't for that assassination attempt back then, Zhang Tianwen would probably have already reached the Golden Core stage by now.

The eight-layered spiritual platform will not collapse into a seven-layered spiritual platform, and the strongest tamed beast will not die...

If none of this had happened, Zhang Tianwen would truly have the power to suppress Yang Chengxu single-handedly today.

"Enough, the past is like smoke, who can truly understand it?"

Seeing that the atmosphere was slightly dull, Zhang Tianwen chuckled and waved his hand to break the silence, his expression becoming serious.

"In short, now that we've come this far, Changsheng, you'd better do your best. I've observed your next opponent, Wang Junjie. With your strength, dealing with him shouldn't be a problem. Then you'll face Yang Chengxu directly."

"Yang Chengxu is extremely arrogant. As a prodigy, if he is interested in you, he will definitely take action to defeat you personally. Only in this way can he completely suppress the arrogance of my Myriad Manifestations Sect. This is also the result he wants."

Zhang Tianwen gave instructions, and before long, the arena, after adjustments and repairs, was as good as new. The rain that had been pouring down gradually stopped, and the light of day returned.

Yu Changsheng was speechless. He turned his head and looked past the crowd toward Yang Chengxu of the Linglong Sect. He saw Yang Chengxu whispering something to the person next to him, who was none other than Wang Junjie, Yu Changsheng's opponent in the next round.

Yang Chengxu seemed to notice Yu Changsheng's gaze. He looked up, passed through the crowd, and smiled at Yu Changsheng. The smile was bright, but it contained an indescribable hint of mockery and coldness.

Yu Changsheng remained calm and unmoved, glancing at the scene once more before looking away.

"The second match of the semifinals: Yu Changsheng of the Myriad Manifestations Sect versus Wang Junjie of the Spirit Dragon Sect!"

Regardless of what the disciples thought, the competition had to continue, and soon the second match of the day began.

The final result surprised Yu Changsheng; he won without even having to fight too hard.

"Yu Changsheng, a disciple of the Myriad Manifestations Sect, has emerged victorious. After a day of rest, the finals will begin tomorrow!"
