Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 52 Selection Ends

The loud noise echoed in all directions.

Flames and waves ripped up the ground in the basin, raising dust hundreds of meters high, creating a huge, charred crater. Beside it lay more than a dozen severely wounded, dying monsters, panting heavily on the scorched earth.

"Pfft!"

Wang Qi coughed up a mouthful of blood, swayed twice, and fell to the ground, but finally managed to hold on with his strong willpower, extending his arm.

At this moment, his condition was extremely bad. Half of his body was affected by the power of the fireball, his skin and flesh were charred black, and his hands and arms were burned down to just bones and a layer of black flesh.

The black bear and wild monkey fared no better; they were both hit by Yu Changsheng's fireballs, their fur burned off, making them look terrifying.

"That's a fireball spell? What the hell, a fireball spell!"

Wang Qi was gritting his teeth, one eye was blind, and the other eye was engulfed by flames, turning bright red, as he stared intently at Yu Changsheng's blurry figure.

Whose fireball spell is that fierce!

Little did he know, Yu Changsheng himself was also startled.

"Is this a minor-level Fireball spell?"

"That's an exaggeration! It's even more terrifying than a cannon!"

"If you master this skill, could a single fireball cover the entire basin?"

However, Yu Changsheng glanced at the 100,000 essences required for the Great Completion Technique and immediately gave up. Wouldn't it be better to use those 100,000 essences to create some cultivation techniques? It would be too wasteful to throw them at the Fireball Technique.

"No, I don't have enough mana in my body to unleash a second attack."

Yu Changsheng's divine sense stirred, and he shouted sharply, "Red Serpent King, go and deal with them!"

The Crimson Serpent King, which had been prepared all along, rubbed against Wang Qi and flew forward like an arrow, pouncing directly in front of him and biting at his neck with its sharp fangs.

"roll!"

Wang Qi's eyes were bloodshot, and his legs were kicking as the will to survive surged from the soles of his feet.

He wielded his silver sword and slashed fiercely at the Red Serpent King's teeth, then kicked him.

However, the result was not good. The power of the Crimson Serpent King far exceeded that of cultivators of the same level, not to mention Wang Qizheng, who was two minor stages below it.

"Bang!"

The silver blade light was easily blocked by the Crimson Serpent King, who then bit off the silver blade and smashed its head into Wang Qizheng's arm, shattering the charred arm into pieces.

"Aaaaah!" Wang Qi roared through gritted teeth, struggling with all his might to barely hold on, his body retreating backward.

He doesn't want to die, he really doesn't want to die!

The selection process is just the beginning for him; the road ahead is still long!

He must live!

Wang Qi was ruthless to himself. Ignoring his arm, he used one leg to block the Red Serpent King's gaping maw and used all his magic power to control another silver knife.

"Whoosh!" A snow-white blade of light slashed towards the back of the Crimson Serpent King's head.

If he's lucky, he might still have a chance to survive and kill this damned monster in front of him.

But the Crimson Serpent King seemed to sense the commotion behind him. He ignored it and a blue light appeared on his body, which was the Water Illusion Armor.

"Thud!" The silver knife struck the back of its head, grazing it just wide.

Wang Qi stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what he was seeing.

"What kind of magic is this?!"

It's one thing for the Crimson Serpent King to spew poisonous mist, but now it even has Water Spirit Armor, making it immune to physical damage!

Where can I even complain about this?!

Wang Qizheng's last thread of composure loosened, and he was struck on the back by the Red Serpent King's tail whip, causing him to lose his balance.

Then a thick, powerful tail swept across, and he couldn't dodge in time, getting slapped across the face, his entire face twisted in pain.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud, and blood splattered everywhere.

Wang Qizheng's head hit the ground, his body went limp and he collapsed to the ground, barely breathing, clearly not long to live.

The Crimson Serpent King, on the other hand, was completely unharmed, and his Water Spirit Illusion Armor remained intact.

He raised his eyes in despair and saw the Crimson Serpent King's gaping maw snapping at him.

He no longer had the strength to resist, and unwillingly closed his eyes, letting the blood flow.

"Pfft!" Wang Qizheng's head was bitten off, and then swallowed by the Red Serpent King along with his corpse.

"Shoo!" The Red Serpent King roared with high spirits.

Meanwhile, the injured black bear and wild monkey woke up one after another, their expressions filled with rage, as if their prey had been stolen.

"Puff puff puff!" Yu Changsheng withdrew the Soul-Breaking Nail.

Just as the Crimson Serpent King killed Wang Qizheng, he also used the Soul-Shattering Nail to take the lives of several demonic beasts and quickly picked up their corpses.

"Let's go!" When Yu Changsheng saw the wild monkey looking at them, he immediately pulled Zhuang Yan across the spikes in the basin.

The large fireball spell had just drained a lot of Yu Changsheng's mana. Even with the Qi-restoring pills, he wouldn't be able to catch his breath for a while, and fighting the wild mountain monkey would undoubtedly be a dead end.

Not to mention the hordes of monsters that kept breaking through the poisonous fog and charging towards this side!

"Screech!" The Red Serpent King flicked its tongue at the wild mountain monkey, then twisted its tail and dashed away, leaving only its back view for the other side.

"Roar!" The wild monkey was furious. It commanded the surrounding monsters to surround Yu Changsheng, while it rode on the black bear and issued commands.

Although these ordinary first-tier demonic beasts are of low intelligence, they are still efficient under the command of the wild mountain monkeys.

A group of demonic beasts pounced on Yu Changsheng like madmen, and the ground trembled.

Just as the two sides were getting closer and closer, the wild monkey even saw a glimmer of hope.

Yu Changsheng felt the call from the talisman.

"It seems the selection process is over."

He glanced back at the furious wild monkey, smiled, and waved his hand to recall the Red Serpent King.

"We'll meet again!"

The wild monkey angrily pounded the ground, sending sharp spikes shooting skyward.

However, Yu Changsheng and Zhuang Yan's figures had already turned into specks of light and disappeared into the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm.

outside world.

On the grass at the entrance to the secret realm.

Rows of servants and disciples sat slumped here, some coughing up blood, some lying on the ground barely alive, and some missing limbs.

Of the three thousand menial disciples, only one-fifth survived.

Moreover, many of these fifths became useless, unable to become outer disciples despite possessing talisman jade.

Elder Wan glanced around and saw that only a few dozen disciples were standing, and they were in good condition.

"Elder Wan, are you satisfied with this selection process?"

"Of the three thousand menial laborers, so many have died. Who will dare to participate next year? This sect is killing the goose that lays the golden eggs."

Yun Hejing shook her head and sighed with some pity.

Elder Wan snorted coldly and said, "What do you know, little girl? Need handymen? We can hire anyone at the fish market outside."

"From now on, none of the outer disciples selected by our Myriad Manifestations Sect will be useless. Only by devoting all the sect's resources to their cultivation can we obtain outstanding talents."

Upon hearing this, Yun and Jing remained silent, clearly disagreeing with his words.

She glanced at Yu Changsheng's position and felt somewhat relieved. She couldn't care less about the other miscellaneous disciples, but she would definitely protect and support this one from now on.

"It won't be long before he becomes my junior brother," Yun Hejing thought to herself.
