Chapter 303

"It, it, it isn't that mechanical ape we encountered in the trial level?!"

"Why would it appear here?"

"It is being controlled by Sun Lingtong, which means we have been framed by the thieves of the Bukong Sect all along?!"

The modified team members who entered the second round of the palace examination were shocked and speechless.

Some were so angry they broke their composure and cursed loudly at Sun Lingtong.

Too insidious!

Too cunning!

This is also too much of a dog thief!!

Throughout the modified team, who hasn't been abused by the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng? Even Unlike Ning Zhuo, the true master of the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, hasn't he been acting along many times?

In short, the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, is the pain point of the modified team, a shadow, and an object they have gritted their teeth at countless times.

In order to deal with the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, and the Nether Envoy, Qi Bai, the three modified teams even once went to great lengths to jointly crusade against them.

They didn't succeed!

The Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, brought everyone too many failures, too much humiliation, and too many setbacks.

Previously, everyone thought it was one of the mechanisms in the trial level.

This perception made it easier for everyone to accept it psychologically.

After all, the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, originated from the Three Sects' Shangren, and everyone losing together to a Void Refinement great expert like the Three Sects' Shangren was completely excusable.

But now, as Sun Lingtong used the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, openly, everyone suddenly realized—we didn't lose to a Void Refinement great expert, but were backstabbed by the thieves of the Bukong Sect!!

And backstabbed so many times.

If it weren't for the second round of the palace examination, we would have been kept in the dark for a lifetime.

For a time, this kind of grievance and resentment was simply enough to drain the water of the three rivers, and it still couldn't be washed away!

"Sun the thief is hateful!"

"I curse you Bukong Sect members, may you never have a son with a butthole in this lifetime!!"

"Not acting like a human, simply not acting like a human!"

For a time, Sun Lingtong became the brightest cub in the main hall square. Countless pairs of fire-spitting eyes stared fixedly at him.

Countless curses and abuses fell like a torrential downpour.

At first, Sun Lingtong was a bit unaccustomed to it. Afterward, he actually enjoyed it.

"If you taste it carefully, this is also quite stimulating."

"Hehe!"

"I just like to see the way you hate me but can't kill me."

"Ah ah ah, that's right, the way you were killed back by me."

"Hehehe..."

Sun Lingtong was triumphant, shaking his head, and an excited flush appeared on his small face.

After using the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, he immediately started a terrifying winning streak. Even Zhu Zhu Xuanji and the others were defeated by him one after another.

And the person who broke their composure the most was none other than Meng Chong.

"Wa ya ya! Evil thief, you dare to play with us in such a situation; this master is going to twist your head off and kick it like a ball!"

"I am so angry, I am so angry!!"

Meng Chong roared repeatedly, but he watched helplessly as his own mechanical puppets, having lost their numerical advantage, were brutally abused by the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng.

Past memories surfaced in his mind again, turning into slaps that hit his face one after another.

Too painful!

This humiliation was truly excessive for a proud son of heaven like him.

Meng Chong was so angry that his face turned red, his hair stood on end, and he directly rolled up his sleeves, wanting to run to the central area to personally clash with the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng.

As a result, an invisible force blocked him firmly.

Sun Lingtong didn't forget to add insult to injury.

He extended his little finger, picked his ear, and looked at Meng Chong with disdain: "Little shrimp, what are you shouting about? Haven't you been abused enough by me?"

In an instant, the struggling Meng Chong froze.

Immediately afterward, his eye sockets were filled with bloodshot veins, and his whole person looked like he was about to explode; he roared at the sky, emitting a deafening angry shout.

"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!!" Meng Chong was so angry he lost his reason.

No matter how the people from the City Lord's Mansion tried to persuade him, it was of no use.

Zhu Zhu Xuanji, Shu Zhongjun, and the others were not overwhelmed by anger.

"Rather than saying I lost to Sun Lingtong, it's better to say I lost to this mechanical ape that possesses spirituality."

"This ape is indeed powerful. Under the same cultivation level, even I find it difficult to block."

"According to the information given in the second round of the palace examination, the mechanical ape came from the trial level and was brought out, so it can be used in the palace examination."

"Calculating this way, the Bukong Sect should still have a mechanical puppet that drives ghosts."

When everyone discussed to this point, even these elite members among the Golden Cores fell silent one after another.

Sun Lingtong only revealed one trump card and already had such a huge advantage. He still had another trump card that he hadn't used yet.

"It is foreseeable that the first place in the second round of the palace examination will again be the 'Entry Standard'!"

"Fortunately, in the second round of the palace examination, only the last ten are eliminated; it is not difficult for us to break through to the next round."

"The mechanical ape came from the trial level; why didn't the modified teams of the four major forces find this reward? Is it in the deeper part of the trial level?"

Everyone guessed continuously.

No one told them that there was a mole who had covered up the two paths of the Buddhist Sect and the Demon Sect.

With the help of the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, Sun Lingtong stole the show, immediately stopped the decline, and rebounded strongly.

The reason for arranging the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, instead of the Nether Envoy, Qi Bai, was mainly because Unlike Ning Zhuo considered: the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, was already the most exposed, so it didn't matter if it was exposed a little more.

Although this mechanism had some improvements in materials in the later stages, replacing them with a large number of Foundation Establishment-level materials.

But it was ultimately only Foundation Establishment-level combat power, and it couldn't be brought to the table when facing Zhu Zhu Xuanji and the others.

It could only show off its power in the arena.

The Nether Envoy, Qi Bai, is different!

Although its material is also limited to the Foundation Establishment level, it contains the Golden Core of Qi Bai's lifetime; if it really exerts itself, it has Golden Core-level combat power!

Of course, when exerting full power, the mechanical body often cannot withstand it, as it is only Foundation Establishment-level material after all. This is the biggest shortcoming that the Nether Envoy, Qi Bai, has had for a long time.

In summary, retaining the Nether Envoy, Qi Bai, and exposing the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, to the outside world to secure Sun Lingtong's seat for the next round is a quite wise decision.

And Unlike Ning Zhuo himself, after everyone was attracted by the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, and Sun Lingtong, was "stumbling" and "struggling" through "bitter battles," "arduously" striving for one victory after another.

Apart from Unlike Ning Zhuo and the others, the person least surprised was Zhu Zhu Xuanji.

He had previously investigated a secret—Yuan Yuan Dasheng had been refined into the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng.

He also knew that Yuan Yuan Dasheng's corpse had been obtained by the Bukong Sect.

Therefore, the conclusion that the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, was an object of the Bukong Sect was deduced accordingly.

It was just that Zhu Zhu Xuanji didn't expect that the Bukong Sect could actually bring the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, out.

The Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, only had Foundation Establishment-level combat power after all, and did not make Zhu Zhu Xuanji pay full attention to it.

Seeing Sun Lingtong killing all sides with the Golden Blood War Ape, Yuan Dasheng, and even he himself losing to Sun Lingtong, this result instead made Zhu Zhu Xuanji pay more attention to another matter.

That is the clue regarding the Golden Furnace!

Among the five Golden Furnaces that had already been used into ruins, Zhu Zhu Xuanji had long known the inside story of the No. 1 Golden Furnace. He had just investigated the No. 5 Golden Furnace.

He only had the No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 Golden Furnaces left.

In the dark, an intuition told him that the answers hidden under the ruins of these three Golden Furnaces were extremely important to him.

However, since the last success, the good opportunity Zhu Zhu Xuanji was waiting for had never appeared.

Although there had been situations where Scarlet Flame Demon Beasts killed their way to the vicinity, every time, they were bombarded and killed by Unlike Ning Zhuo, who activated the Five Elements Artillery Towers in advance, before the demon beasts could truly kill their way to the Gourd Forest.

This made it impossible for Zhu Zhu Xuanji and the others to use the Scarlet Flame Demon Beasts to penetrate deep into the Golden Furnace ruins.

The turning point appeared after the fifth question.

Roar!

Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, a Flame-Stepping Lizard as huge as a small mountain crawled out of the magma.

Golden Core level!

The second Golden Core-level Scarlet Flame Demon Beast appeared in the beast tide.

Its target was pointed directly at the Lava Xian Gong.

Meng Kui immediately took action, relying on the Immortal City Array to intercept the Golden Core-level Flame-Stepping Lizard.

The two sides fought for more than a dozen rounds; the previous Fire-Walking Snake that had fled seemed to have glimpsed an opportunity and also killed its way over.

For a time, Meng Kui, with the strength of one person, faced two major Golden Core-level demon beasts simultaneously!

He displayed four magic power giant hands, blocking left and right, falling into an obvious disadvantage.

Boom!

The Flame-Stepping Lizard slammed fiercely into the Lava Xian Gong.

The spherical light shield, which had only had a few holes broken in it before, became dim and lusterless in an instant.

Boom!

The Flame-Stepping Lizard made another charge.

The spherical light shield shattered with a bang!

Countless Scarlet Flame Demon Beasts landed from all directions and broke into the Lava Xian Gong.

The Five Elements Artillery Towers fired crazily, the shells like a rainstorm, smashing fiercely into the Flame-Stepping Lizard's head and neck. The uninterrupted fierce bombardment created light injuries, finally forcing it to retreat.

However, before retreating, the Flame-Stepping Lizard swung its tail fiercely, directly snapping off a corner of the Xian Gong, with several buildings and the land block separating directly from the main body.

Immediately afterward, this corner of the Xian Gong fell into the magma and soon disappeared completely.

Such a heavy blow caused the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit to immediately emit a miserable howl in the main hall!

The Lava Xian Gong was in chaos.

This was the first time such a huge amount of Scarlet Flame Demon Beasts had poured into the Xian Gong.

Although not long after, the spherical light shield recovered again, blocking the subsequent landing of demon beasts.

But the Scarlet Flame Demon Beasts that had poured in were already a huge threat and must be wiped out as soon as possible!

The cultivators exerted their full strength and conquered everywhere.

During the battle, because of a small accident, someone discovered that the Xian Gong's restrictions had also been damaged and had loopholes.

As long as they were Qi Condensation or Foundation Establishment cultivators, even without mechanism attainments, they could enter and exit the Xian Gong!

This would have been absolutely impossible in the past. Their mechanism attainments had to meet the standard.

"The opportunity has come!" Zhu Zhu Xuanji's mood was complicated.

On one hand, the opportunity he had been waiting for had finally arrived. On the other hand, a corner of the Lava Xian Gong had collapsed; for such a major loss, the price to make up for it in the future would inevitably be huge!

This forced the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit to only be able to contact Unlike Ning Zhuo again: "Little, little master, bombard the Golden Furnace land with artillery! Let Zhu Zhu Xuanji completely give up this idea!"
