Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

The bloodthirsty energy suddenly surged wildly on Tianjiao Mountain, even transforming into a tornado that danced in the void, continuously absorbing the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus.

Everyone's expression changed, their minds stirred, and they all turned their gazes to the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus was seen radiating a rich, blood-red light, its petals trembling slightly as if about to bloom.

Mysterious fluctuations rippled outwards in waves, accompanied by thunder in the void, the pervasive Daoist essence, and the resounding sounds of laws—truly extraordinary.

On the petals, mysterious golden patterns shimmered and illuminated the void, filled with golden runes amidst the blood-red light, exuding a sacred aura.

Boom!

A thunderclap suddenly exploded, and the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus, which was originally in bud, slowly bloomed under the thunder. Instantly, a blood-red pillar of light pierced through the heavens and earth, straight into the sky. Outside this blood-red pillar of light, golden rays of light, like long dragons, swirled around it.

At the center of the pillar of light, the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus slowly rose and fell, its petals blooming continuously. With each bloom, the golden light became more intense. The bloodthirsty aura and the golden light intertwined, creating a scene that was both bloody and sacred. These two characteristics were manifested simultaneously without conflict.

There were exactly eighteen lotus petals, no more and no less. Everyone's mind was deeply absorbed by this Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus. They were so engrossed that their eyes were fixed on it, and they were somewhat dazed.

As the eighteenth petal unfolded, the complete form of the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus was fully revealed to everyone, and the blood-red and golden light in the world reached its peak at this moment.

This is a blood-red lotus flower, adorned with golden patterns, resembling a sky full of stars. It is crystal clear and perfectly formed, without a single flaw. One glance is enough to make one realize that this object is exceptionally precious.

Just as the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus fully matured, the group of people who had been silent suddenly burst into action and charged towards the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus in the sky.

The first to make a move was Yama of the Xuan Yin Sect! The others followed suit almost in unison, including Yu Changsheng, who stared at the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus with a glint in his eyes.

"Get out of my way! The Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus is mine!"

With the birth of the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus, everyone stopped hiding. Yama roared downwards, and the overwhelming fiendish energy disturbed the void. His Golden Core cultivation was released completely without reservation.

"Hehe, such a treasure will be obtained by those who are destined to have it. Whoever gets it is up to their own skill."

The others sneered. Seeing that Yama was about to touch the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus, their eyes flashed with ferocity, and they chose to make their move, bombarding Yama with spells to interfere with his actions.

Yama's speed faltered, forcing him to defend against the counterattack. In an instant, within the inner circle, the light of magic flickered, and the cultivation fluctuations of the Golden Core resounded through the void, with aftershocks echoing in all directions.

In an instant, the situation changed dramatically. With ten people intervening to restrain the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus, no one managed to seize it immediately.

The violent aftershocks caused a group of people on the periphery to change color and quickly retreat to keep their distance, lest they be swept up in the blast and affected.

"Is this the strength of the top ten geniuses on the Heavenly Fiend Ranking? Each and every one of them is quite remarkable, even within the Golden Core stage!"

"Are the people of the Xuan Yin Sect really that powerful? Look at Qiu Xing, fighting two prodigies single-handedly without being at a disadvantage, and even managing to suppress them!"

"That Wuyai, fourth on the Heavenly Fiend Ranking, who exactly is he? Judging from the fluctuations in his attacks, they are somewhat similar to those of the Xuan Yin Sect. His power is astonishing and should not be underestimated!"

……

Taking this opportunity, the group of geniuses on the periphery discussed and observed amongst themselves, gasps rising and falling. Their eyes dimmed slightly, filled with mixed emotions, and none of them made any rash moves, choosing instead to observe.

"Wait a minute? Look what Yu Changsheng is doing. Is he trying to withdraw from the competition by keeping that distance?"

Some sharp-eyed people noticed Yu Changsheng and were immediately stunned, pointing at him in surprise.

Looking at the chaotic battlefield before him, Yu Changsheng remained calm, but he quietly retreated, using the Xuan Turtle's breathing technique to minimize his presence and not rashly enter the fray.

Instead, he looked up at the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus, pursed his lips, and gently exhaled. The Myriad Spirits Technique began to operate wildly, and its connection with the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus reached its peak.

"The characteristic of the Myriad Spirits Technique is to improve physical constitution and be compatible with all things... In addition, I am a spiritually connected body favored by the Heavenly Dao, and this Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus..."

Yu Changsheng murmured to himself, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. After retreating to a certain distance, he lightly jumped, looked at the crowd still fighting, shook his head, and waved his hand to summon the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus in the void!

buzzing...

The Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus trembled, and the aura of the Myriad Spirits Technique spread out. The next moment, the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus transformed into a streak of blood-gold light, tearing through the void and flying towards Yu Changsheng at an astonishing speed.

The strange movement of the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus was noticed by the other nine people in an instant. In their astonishment, they turned their gazes to Yu Changsheng, their eyes filled with confusion and doubt. Their expressions changed in a series of moments, and then their faces changed as they rushed toward the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus.

"Yu Changsheng? What happened?!"

"This Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus is so special that it shouldn't be able to be captured by magic. How did he manage to do it?"

"This Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus... it feels like it's deliberately going after him. How is that possible?"

Amidst their turmoil, the nine suppressed their doubts and each made their move to chase after the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus.

"A dense forest!"

Yu Changsheng's gaze darkened. He had been prepared all along. With a wave of his sleeve, the Colorful Star Deer appeared. With a light step, towering trees, vines and willow branches transformed into a net that covered the void layer by layer, blocking the way in front of everyone.

"Don't let him succeed! He has such audacity!"

Yama roared, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at Yu Changsheng from afar. Ignoring the vast net of heaven and earth, he rammed into him fiercely!

Most of the others did the same, choosing to ignore it and charge straight in with their bodies!

Click, click, click...

In an instant, the net formed by the trees and vines collapsed. Although the Colorful Star Deer had reached the third level, it was impossible to trap these nine geniuses with such a net.

However, this also slowed down the speed of the group, and it was this slowdown that brought the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus and Yu Changsheng even closer!

"The thing I set my sights on, I fear you might have the life to take it, but not the life to use it!"

"The Heavenly Fiend Secret Realm and the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus belong to my Xuan Yin Sect. How could I allow an outsider like you to lay a finger on them!"

The group exchanged a cold laugh, but instead of fighting amongst themselves, they all temporarily focused their attention on Yu Changsheng.

The net of trees was reduced to ashes in an instant.

But after the ashes, a lotus flower radiating seven colors suddenly appeared, constantly shining.

"A fantastical realm!"

The colorful star deer cried softly, its eyes darkened, and the light of the illusion enveloped the nine people. Their bodies involuntarily froze again, and their eyes were momentarily dazed. Although they regained their clarity in an instant, their speed was affected to some extent.

At that very moment, the Crimson Hell Dragon roared, its dragon might overwhelming, and countless fiery flames swept towards the crowd.

The colorful star deer cried out in sorrow, its body trembled slightly, and it turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the inner world. Although it only blocked the crowd for a moment, none of the nine people were ordinary. To be able to do this was already the ultimate achievement of the colorful star deer.

The consumption of the star deer is unimaginable.

Yu Changsheng's face also paled, his Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he swallowed the pill he had put in his mouth beforehand. Looking at the approaching figures of the crowd, his gaze turned cold, and he snorted coldly. With a flick of his sleeve and a furrowed brow, the fiery flames in the sky transformed into a huge fireball, emitting violent fluctuations, and exploded in the crowd!

Rumble!

Flames raged, the Crimson Hell Dragon roamed, circling and soaring high, a faint red light enveloping the space.

"Crimson Flame Seals the Sky!"

"The Abyss of the Water Kingdom!"

The Xuan Turtle descended simultaneously, unleashing a double sealing force that caused everyone within its range to freeze instantly.

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

Yu Changsheng's face turned pale. The successive bursts of power had taken a toll on him, but the effects were also significant. It was these successive bursts that bought Yu Changsheng time. The Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus was already within reach!

"Damn it!"

"This guy's methods are really troublesome."

The crowd's expressions were grim. Although the repeated obstacles had not caused them any real harm, they had thoroughly stirred up their anger, especially after they saw the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus. If Yu Changsheng had taken advantage of the situation, it would be unacceptable to them.

"Almost there, Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus..."

Yu Changsheng exhaled and swung his arm. Just as the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus was about to land in his hand, Yu Changsheng's expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly dodged to the side.

The next instant, a magnificent sword light flashed, like a rift in the sky, tearing through the void with an unstoppable momentum, accompanied by astonishing sword energy, and slashed down fiercely!

The sword light flashed like lightning, its traces easily detected by both the naked eye and divine sense. Almost instinctively, Yu Changsheng dodged, but the target of this sword was not Yu Changsheng, but the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus in front of him!

Click...

In the blink of an eye, the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus trembled and vibrated, and a crack slowly emerged from the middle, then spread to the entire lotus.

"What?"

Yu Changsheng was shocked. The golden light dissipated, the blood light paused, and with a single sword strike, the entire Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus was split in two. One half fell towards Yu Changsheng, while the other half, under the swirling of the sword light, fell in other directions.

"Half it is!"

Yu Changsheng gritted his teeth, quickly put half of the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus into his bosom, and glanced back at the person who had drawn the sword.

The man who drew his sword wore a long blue robe, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. His face was handsome, with distinct features, yet it also revealed a hint of maturity. At this moment, he looked at Yu Changsheng from afar, his face slightly pale, and his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

It was Wen Hanhai, the prodigy of the Purple Rainbow Sect this time.

"Keep him here! Don't let him get away!"

Seeing this, the others' eyes flickered. Five of them leaped towards the other half of the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus, while the remaining four, including Yan Mo and Wang Haiyang, rushed towards Yu Changsheng.

Yu Changsheng narrowed his eyes. He had obtained the Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus, even though he only had half of it. The situation before him did not allow him to linger any longer. So he put the Crimson Hell Dragon and the Black Tortoise back into his inner world, turned around without hesitation, and with a burst of full power, flew away into the distance.

After the outburst, Yu Changsheng was already somewhat exhausted. He knew very well that this was like pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth. If he really fought against everyone, he would have no chance of winning.

"Run? Where can you run to?"

"Damn it! Half a Heavenly Fiend Golden Lotus, how could a piece of such a treasure be allowed to fall into the hands of a trash from a lower sect like you? Hand it over now, and I might spare your life."

Yu Changsheng transformed into a rainbow, stepping on the void at an extreme speed. Those behind him were not to be outdone, all sharing the same goal: to rush towards Yu Changsheng and relentlessly pursue him.

Yu Changsheng frowned, his divine sense spreading out to detect the movement behind him.

Although he had the upper hand, the people behind him were all Golden Core cultivators, each with their own secret techniques. When they unleashed their full power, their speed was no slower than his, and the distance between them was constantly shrinking.

The most eye-catching of the four was one of them, a burly man with a fierce face. As he sped along, ghostly figures appeared behind him, giving him even greater speed.

This man was dressed in a blood-red robe, appeared to be middle-aged, and had dark red hair and an eerie blood-red pupil. He wore a nine-skull collar around his neck, and his murderous aura was the strongest among the crowd. He whistled through layers of void and rapidly approached Yu Changsheng.

"Number one on the Heavenly Fiend Ranking, the Evil Ghost Senior Brother, Qiu Xing!"

Yu Changsheng frowned, exhaled, and sensed the astonishing fluctuations brewing within the other party. He suddenly bit his tongue, and his speed exploded once more.

"interesting."

Qiu Xing chuckled calmly, watching Yu Changsheng's back. He suddenly inhaled, and boundless blood energy surged forth, merging with the layers of ghostly shadows behind him. Then he exhaled sharply.

A blood-red storm howled, and countless ghostly shadows roared. The figures, which had solidified into crimson, blood-soaked forms with two horns on their heads, blue faces, and fangs, transformed into wisps of green smoke, traversed space, and finally landed around Yu Changsheng.

"Nine Demon Heavenly Vortex!"

With a low growl, Qiu Xing cast a spell, and the wisps of green smoke transformed once more into nine ferocious ghosts, spitting out three-zhang-long, rotten tongues that lunged at Yu Changsheng.

"Skyfire Bright Sun!"

Yu Changsheng paused, his hands moving rapidly. With a frenzied release of magical power, a huge dark red fireball rose and fell, then suddenly exploded towards the Nine Ghosts!

Rumble!

The void trembled, and ring-shaped waves rippled outwards. The nine ghosts roared and howled. Half of their bodies were blown away, but they did not collapse. Instead, their tongues intertwined and swirled, flashing with dense blood light. The remaining half of their bodies also rapidly expanded like a balloon, eventually bursting open and turning into a dark green vortex. As it spun continuously, it emitted a terrifying suction force, enveloping Yu Changsheng's head.

Yu Changsheng's expression changed drastically; he suddenly felt as if he were trapped in a swamp, his body uncontrollably trying to be swept away by the vortex. (End of Chapter)
