Don't try to cultivate immortality; mortals live longer than immortals.

Close the door and beat the dog!

So when the extraterrestrial demon rushed into the valley, a booming sound like a great bell rang out, and layers of golden light shone, blocking the mountain pass and trapping her.

Chen Ran suddenly turned her head.

Her aged, withered face was full of malice, and even from a distance, you could feel her anger... I've been tricked again!

Those two scoundrels didn't flee out of fear or cowardice; they deliberately used themselves as bait to lure the enemy into a trap.

hateful!

Chen Ran was furious!

As a powerful extraterrestrial demon, she has always been a manipulative and seductive being. Even with superior strength, she still enjoys scheming and manipulating people's hearts. She never expected that these two brats would be so unethical and actually trick her in their own area of ​​expertise.

Zhou Ran, in particular, has always been carefree and guileless, appearing completely natural. But when it comes to swindling people, he is utterly shameless!

Despite her anger, she remained completely calm.

Ultimately, the cultivation world is a place where strength reigns supreme. Because of the rules of heaven and earth, cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage are not allowed to enter this small secret realm.

Even she could only send down a wisp of her soul.

However, after possessing a cultivator through demonic possession, one can temporarily elevate the cultivator's strength to the Foundation Establishment stage.

The difference between two realms is like heaven and earth.

Even if those two kids are playing some kind of trickery, it's all futile.

Choosing a desperate place, thinking it can trap you?

Hmph, don't you even consider that this place could also become a prison where you perish?

"Little ones, you'll soon find yourselves trapped in your own web!"

Chen Ran released his divine sense and quickly discovered the two people's hiding place. Not only the two of them, but also several other cultivators were hiding and lying in ambush in the valley.

They're quite strong!

Almost all of them were at the peak of Qi Refining.

But so what? Qi Refining is Qi Refining. Do you think that a few Qi Refining Peak cultivators can contend with me, a Foundation Establishment cultivator?

A malicious sneer crept across Chen Ran's lips.

……

Jiang Yun was very flustered.

Not only him, but his companions were also in a panic. Without exception, they were all the top students among the college students participating in this trial.

There was hope of transferring from a junior college to a four-year university, which is why Lingyun called him over to help.

Make a promise that is kept.

They were originally very confident about this mission.

As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Although they are college graduates, they have all cultivated to the peak of Qi Refining. In this secret realm where Foundation Establishment is not allowed, they are naturally fearless. Even if they encountered the Resentful Heavenly Demon on the way, they felt that it was nothing special.

They thought setting up an ambush here was a bit of an overreaction, but they never expected that the enemy they were going to deal with would actually be a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Are you kidding me? Wasn't it said that Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn't enter this secret realm?

Otherwise, what's the point of holding a Crimson Trial? It would have been a complete mess long ago.

For a moment, everyone was filled with panic and confusion, but the buzzing sound of the nano-spiritual energy detector kept echoing sharply in their ears.

The number "300" was also reflected on the screen.

The enemy is indeed at the Foundation Establishment stage!

Jiang Yun gasped.

However, at that moment, a calm and gentle voice entered my ears: "Don't be afraid. You guys just need to do as I just said and take charge of the formation. As for this guy, I'll handle him."

Since she and Zhou Ran had been putting on an act and had set up a trap to ensnare the extraterrestrial demons, why would Ling Yun abandon Jiang Yaoguang, her greatest fighting force?

She was at the Golden Core stage. Although what she had come here was merely a substitute for a divine-level Xuan puppet, using a split soul to possess the body, the only limitations were her realm and spiritual power. Her combat experience and the skills in using magic power were still at the Golden Core level, far beyond what cultivators of the same Qi Refining stage could compare to.

So, after obtaining Duan Xuan's consent, Ling Yun, with her silver tongue, secretly brought Jiang Yaoguang over to help, and set up an ambush here, wanting the extraterrestrial demons to walk right into her trap.

The process has gone smoothly, and everything is progressing as expected.

"But...but this guy is an extraterrestrial demon, and he's only at the Foundation Establishment level."

Jiang Yun stammered, his voice trembling slightly, as did the other students next to him.

Although they are among the best of junior college students and have the potential to enter a bachelor's degree program, let alone the ordinary junior college to bachelor's degree program, even in a top-tier institution like Shuiyun Daoyun Academy, a Qi Refining student would never be able to challenge a Foundation Establishment student.

"Don't be afraid, there's hope of winning."

Jiang Yaoguang didn't explain further. In fact, if she had a choice, she wouldn't want to face the Foundation Establishment level extraterrestrial demon in this state, but she had no other choice.

Duan Xuan was too reckless, but he couldn't just abandon him. So even if it meant giving up the Divine Machine Puppet, he had to fight the enemy in front of him.

Thinking back to the agreement the Divine Lord had given to his main body before he came here, he knew that if things went smoothly, he would receive a large reward, interest-free loans, and so on—it was practically free money. However, if he failed and Duan Xuan suffered any mishap, he would suffer a fate worse than death.

So she had no way out and could only take a gamble.

However, the opponent's combat power was as high as 300. Jiang Yaoguang sighed and glanced at the nano-spiritual power value detector. This divine mechanical puppet was only at the Qi Refining level. The hope of winning was too slim.

A thousand thoughts raced through his mind, but his expression remained calm and composed as he spoke softly, "The three of us are all from Shuiyun Daoyun Academy, um, the elite class."

Initially, I hid my identity to avoid attracting attention and envy from others. However, in this situation, facing a formidable enemy, I must give everyone a boost of confidence.

What? Shuiyun Daoyun Academy?

A top student in the honors class?

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the college student was first stunned and dumbfounded, then his face was filled with joy.

They understood the significance of this statement all too well. Even if they were at the same level, the strength of these top university students was far beyond what they, as junior college students, could compare to. Although they still didn't think they could challenge someone of a higher level, if there were more of them and an array to assist them, they might be able to give it a shot.

As this thought crossed their minds, their fear lessened considerably, and a burning desire arose in their chests. They immediately spoke up.

"Understood, leave the task of controlling the formation to me."

"We'll provide support from the sidelines."

"Senior, please be careful yourself too."

……

The whole process, though seemingly complicated, actually only took a moment. The extraterrestrial demons wouldn't give them time to prepare or ramble on. Seeing a beautiful young woman appear and emerge from her hiding place, Chen Ran's face revealed a wicked smile. Then, with a burst of black light, he pounced on her with lightning speed.
