Chapter 1083: Chapter 1057: Demon Beast at the Seventh Level of the Marvelous Law Realm
After a cloud of dust rose, the five men all spat blood, their faces looking extremely unsightly and embarrassed, each with a somewhat terrified look as they gazed at Tangyu. They considered themselves not lacking in strength, yet they couldn’t withstand even a single move from their opponent and were directly beaten to spitting blood. Exactly how powerful was this person’s strength? And who on earth was this person?
Wang Qiutian and the other two approached Tangyu with a look of joy on their faces: "Brother Tangyu, it’s really great to see you, otherwise we could only end up with regret here."
"Haha, it seems that Providence favors good people like us," Liu Yuanyan laughed.
Tangyu smirked and said, "It’s good that you’re okay. I’ll leave these five people to you, go take their tokens."
Naturally, Wang Qiutian and the others knew that Tangyu was intentionally helping them. They knew Tangyu’s strength, and of course, they also knew that Tangyu must have already collected enough tokens, so the three of them did not hesitate and walked towards the five people. Wang Qiutian grinned and said, "Haha, earlier you five were strutting with power and had us three dead pressed, but now our brother is here, you are defeated. I won’t say much nonsense, you’ve lost, hand over all your tokens."
"Is he Tangyu?" a man among the five asked, looking at Tangyu.
Wang Qiutian nodded and said, "That’s right, it seems you’ve heard of my brother’s name, now you know it’s not in vain to lose. We’re all strangers to each other, a chance meeting. But reality is harsh, to pass the trial, we have to be unkind to you. If you want to blame, blame your luck for being a bit bad."
The man shook his head, "Since we were defeated by Tangyu, we have no regrets about losing. Well, it’s all down to our bad luck, nothing more to say."
The five were quite cooperative and took out all the tokens on them. To the surprise of Wang Qiutian and his two friends, the total number of tokens on the five added up to over a hundred and fifty, quite a large amount. Distributing them evenly among Wang Qiutian and his two friends, each of them got more than fifty. Adding their own tokens, their advancement was now completely stable.
Wang Qiutian smiled happily, "Haha, this is great, now we’re set, we don’t have to kill and rob anymore."
The four of them, including Tangyu, also left there; each of their token counts was sufficient, so they were quite relaxed and had no need to worry about anything else.
Wang Qiutian asked, "Tangyu, how many tokens do you have?"
Tangyu smirked slightly and said, "About three hundred, not many."
Wang Qiutian immediately grinned, "Three hundred, you call that not many? The three of us combined have only over two hundred, which is still less than yours. That’s even after finding a big treasure just now, otherwise it would’ve been difficult for us to advance. But for you, less than three hundred really is a bit much, haha, doesn’t matter, in the first round, any advancement is fine, it’s not time to show off yet. If you stand out too early, you’ll definitely get targeted."
Tangyu nodded, it made sense, so he kept a low profile, not trying to compete for anything.
Wang Qiutian continued, "I wonder how Miao Li and the others are doing. We don’t have to worry about Xiaotian, and Sheng Yang doesn’t need worrying either. As for Hua Wuliang, I wonder how he’s doing." Wang Qiutian had always had a contrary relationship with Hua Wuliang, but their friendship was still quite deep.
Tangyu was also somewhat concerned for them, but there was nothing he could do, "This, it’s up to their luck and fortunes. Having strength without luck could also lead to defeat. Even Xiaotian might not necessarily advance."
"Yes, indeed, luck is very important, this first round of trials is too unpredictable. If unlucky enough to encounter a genius on the level of Yan Huohuo, then even Xiaotian and Sheng Yang might only end up regretting. Only someone with your strength, Tangyu, has a bit of confidence." Wang Qiutian nodded.
The four of them found a place and simply rested.
Suddenly Wang Qiutian pointed in a direction and said, "Look over there."
Tangyu also looked over and saw a figure lying under a distant tree, covered in blood, unclear whether dead or alive. Moreover, it appeared to be a woman’s figure. Seeing this, Tangyu frowned slightly, "Let’s go, check it out."
The figure hurriedly rushed over there and quickly arrived beneath the tree. It was a very beautiful woman, but at that moment, she appeared to be dying, on the brink of death. Her body was covered with shocking wounds and blood, almost turning her into a bloodied figure. The fact that she was a woman naturally stirred a sense of pity in anyone who saw her.
Wang Qiutian checked and said, "She’s still breathing and hasn’t died, but she’s gravely injured. It’s unknown who would be so ruthless. To be so harsh against a woman, such a person is truly inhuman, so infuriating."
Wang Qiutian was indignant. Women inherently had this advantage, whether on Earth or in the Cultivation World; women would often receive some degree of preferential treatment from men.
Tangyu also went over to check, and indeed, the injuries were severe. He was about to carry the woman aside to treat her injuries when a sudden alertness arose in his heart, and a sense of danger surged up.
Danger!
With this feeling, Tangyu did not hesitate and immediately took action. At this moment, the dying woman suddenly opened her eyes, and a sharp sword appeared in her hand, thrusting directly at Tangyu. Everything happened too quickly and suddenly. Strangely, upon seeing this woman’s eyes, one would find her immensely beautiful, so much so that Wang Qiutian and the other two were momentarily mesmerized, standing there with silly smiles, completely forgetting to retreat.
Under the influence of those eyes, Tangyu immediately felt his mind enchanted. Fortunately, his willpower was strong, honed through many trials in the Illusion Realm, making it difficult to fully enchant him. Instantly, Tangyu expelled the Charm Power from his mind, and at the same time, he was astonished, "Such strong Charm Power, all three of Wang Qiutian’s team were completely captivated. Had they encountered her alone, it would have meant certain death for them."
Faced with the woman’s sudden attack, Tangyu couldn’t afford to think much and quickly retreated. However, because Wang Qiutian and the others were still there, if Tangyu quickly pulled back, it would certainly be better for him, but Wang Qiutian and the others might suffer. Gritting his teeth, Tangyu recklessly blocked with his sword, though due to the rush of time, he could only just manage to block with no real Sword Force unleashed.
Clang—
The woman’s sword struck heavily on Tangyu’s sword, producing fierce sparks. The force was terrifying, like a raging storm sweeping in. The immense power was like a massive mountain pressing heavily onto Tangyu, exploding upon his body.
If not for Tangyu’s cultivation in the Divine Demon Body Refinement of the "Undying Nine Transformations," this strike would indeed have severely injured him. Even so, Tangyu felt a wave of soreness throughout his body, and his arm was completely numb. However, he managed to block the woman’s strike. Tangyu’s eyes immediately turned cold, a glint of sharpness flashing as he shouted, "Wake up, retreat quickly!"
Tangyu spoke to Wang Qiutian and the others, his voice like a resounding bell ringing in their minds, snapping them back to reality. The three of them realized they had encountered a powerful enemy and quickly retreated to a distance, knowing this battle was beyond their ability to partake in.
Once at a safe distance, Wang Qiutian and the others stopped, wiping cold sweat from their brows. It was so thrilling, too close to death. Their gaze fell on the woman, their throats dry, realizing she was disguised. How could her disguise technique be so advanced that they couldn’t detect it at all?
A beautiful woman could also be extremely terrifying.
Tangyu looked at the alluring woman, who had now removed all her fake wounds, appearing extraordinarily enchanting and beautiful, like a living Fairy. Moreover, her body emitted formidable Charm Power, making Tangyu not dare to relax for a moment, lest he be invaded by her Charm Power, leading to unimaginable consequences.
Tangyu pointed his sword at the alluring woman and said, "Who are you? You’re not human, you’re a Demon Beast, right? Judging by your power, you should be a Seventh Level Mystic Law Realm Demon Beast. Such an impressive disguise technique and powerful charm, what kind of Demon Beast are you to escape our notice?"
The alluring woman laughed enchantingly, her voice filled with Magic Power, striking at Tangyu’s consciousness: "Human, you’re quite clever. Your strength isn’t bad; to withstand my strike without injury, your body must be unusual. Not bad at all; it’s rare to encounter such a decent talent. But, the thing I love most is killing human geniuses one by one to quench my hatred. Hmph, you humans never regard us Demon Beasts, using us as tools for your training. I hate humans. I, a dignified Charming Beast, was captured by you humans into this small world, never able to leave."
"Human, let your blood wash away my rage!"
"Charming Beast?" Tangyu had never heard of such a Demon Beast. He shook his head and said, "Your anger and frustration are not our concern. We’re merely here to undertake a trial, not the ones who captured you. So, I’m not interested in fighting you; if you leave, we’ll call it quits. How about it?"
"Call it quits?" The Charming Beast laughed eerily, "I despise you humans; whenever I see one, I kill one, so—you shall die. I’ll drink your blood and eat your flesh, which will enhance my strength. How can I let go of such a feast? So, surrender your lives."
The Charming Beast moved again, attacking Tangyu without the slightest intention to stop.
