Chapter 496: Big Boss, Not to Be Trifled With (Second Update, Requesting Everything)

Pop—

In less than two minutes, accompanied by a soft sound, the Restriction flickered wildly a few times and finally vanished.

"Stop!"

Li Changsheng and Luo Jing shouted to stop at the same time, fearing they would destroy the jade-quality book inside the Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar.

Like an army, the Demon Pets stopped immediately.

With the Restriction Guard gone, Li Changsheng took out the jade-quality book made from Preaching Jade and, without even looking at it, put it directly into his Space Ring.

Before breaking it, Li Changsheng had already determined his next target.

This time it was a Jade Slip; he did not know if it was a Secret Technique or a Demon-Taming Art.

"Attack!"

Following Li Changsheng's order, fifteen Demon Pets, including Luo Jing's two, launched an offensive against the target simultaneously.

Layer upon layer of ripples appeared, and the weakness of the Restriction was instantly reduced by more than a third; before the Restriction could fully recover, the Demon Pets' second wave of attacks struck again.

Almost identical to before, in less than two minutes, the Restriction shattered again, and Li Changsheng put the Jade Slip away.

From beginning to end, those idle Third-Rank Heavenly Prides were eager to make a move but never acted.

This might have to do with their numbers and factions; if they were from the same faction, these dozen or so Third-Rank Heavenly Prides would have a chance to snatch the treasures.

Unfortunately, they belonged to four different factions and could at most harass and prevent others from obtaining treasures.

"Rest for half a minute!"

This time, Li Changsheng did not attack the target immediately; having been launching attacks at full power, the two people's Demon Pets were inevitably panting, and if they continued, their efficiency would inevitably be affected.

Most importantly, there were four other major factions here; Li Changsheng had to keep his Demon Pets in their best state to deal with uncertain factors, while also preparing for the second phase.

In the second phase, the Restrictions of the Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillars would automatically dissipate, and the treasures would scatter; that would be the time to fight for the treasures, and with so many people swarming to snatch them, a chaotic battle would be inevitable.

Additionally, Li Changsheng had carefully calculated that even with a half-minute rest, there was still enough time to break the third Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar.

Although the Demon Pets were resting, Li Changsheng had long since locked onto the next target; this time it was a paper book.

Although books made of Preaching Jade had a higher status, this was the inheritance ground of Flame King Di Zhiyi, so the knowledge recorded in this paper book could not possibly be ordinary.

At the same time, Li Changsheng was also keeping an eye on the others.

Judging by the progress, Li Changsheng's progress was the fastest; Dou Yuanbiao and Liu Xudong had each broken one and were currently attacking their second Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar.

As for the Tiantai Sect and Royal Academy 'Coalition Army', they were still struggling to attack their first Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar, but judging by the weakness of the Restriction, they would soon break it.

It was just that there was only one treasure, but there were four of them, and the remaining time was clearly not enough to break a second Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar; this was a situation of too many monks and too little gruel.

Li Changsheng had reason to believe that these four Fourth-Rank Heavenly Prides would likely argue endlessly over this treasure, and might even resort to violence.

Although the Tiantai Sect was Li Changsheng's temporary ally, this was ultimately just a verbal agreement; if the Tiantai Sect and the Royal Academy fought until they were bloodied, that was a situation Li Changsheng would be happy to see, as it meant fewer uncertain factors and also an opportunity to compete for more treasures.

"Huh!"

Suddenly, Li Changsheng turned to look at those dozen or so Third-Rank Heavenly Prides; they seemed to have reached an agreement, and some were staring intently at the Tiantai Sect and Royal Academy 'Coalition Army', or more accurately, at the Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar whose Restriction was about to be broken.

They seemed to have the idea of snatching this treasure; compared to Li Changsheng, Dou Yuanbiao, and Liu Xuguang, the Tiantai Sect and Royal Academy 'Coalition Army' seemed to have become soft persimmons.

"Alright, time's up, let's continue!"

Half a minute later, Li Changsheng clapped his hands right on time and directed the Demon Pets to attack the Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar containing the paper book.

Boom—

Suddenly, a loud explosion rang out, accompanied by sounds of exasperation, followed by various other noises; it sounded quite chaotic.

It turned out that just as the four Fourth-Rank Heavenly Prides from the Tiantai Sect and Royal Academy joined forces to break the Restriction, some covetous Third-Rank Heavenly Prides could no longer hold back and moved to snatch the treasure inside the Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar.

The four Fourth-Rank Heavenly Prides naturally tried to stop them, but one of them wanted to take advantage of the chaos to grab the treasure, which directly caused the already unstable alliance to shatter instantly, and for a time, half the hall was affected.

Driven by those with ulterior motives, the chaos spread rapidly, seemingly wanting to drag others into the water.

At this moment, several Demon Pets charged toward this side; Zhao Shuyi, Xu Xiangzhi, and Wang Xinyi all took action to prevent them from disturbing Li Changsheng and Luo Jing.

"Aixi!"

Li Changsheng said nothing and looked at Aixi, who was wearing a five-layered Wind Cloak.

Aixi understood Li Changsheng's thoughts instantly; it immediately left the ranks of those besieging the Restriction, its speed like a ghost, and in an instant, it appeared in front of a Swift Wolf; before the Swift Wolf could react, its throat was bitten by Aixi.

Crack!

The Swift Wolf widened its eyes, its head hung limply, its limbs twitched a few times, and it never moved again.

"Ah!"

Not far away, a Third-Rank Heavenly Pride from the Langya Liu Clan screamed, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his aura withered.

Aixi did not stop, and immediately killed a Vast River Hippo; this time it was the turn of a Third-Rank Student from the Royal Academy.

Only then did those Heavenly Prides who wanted to test Li Changsheng or drag him into the water immediately cease their efforts and panic-strickenly recall their Demon Pets.

Big boss, not to be trifled with!

Only after being hurt did the fire of ambition they had worked so hard to ignite get extinguished by a basin of cold water.

Not far away, Liu Xudong looked at Li Changsheng with dissatisfaction; their Langya Liu Clan had lost another Third-Rank Heavenly Pride, and it was feared they would be unable to exert much more strength.

On the other side, Dou Yuanbiao's eyes flickered, but he soon focused his gaze back on the second Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar; the Restriction was about to be broken.

Li Changsheng ignored Liu Xudong's gaze, and at this moment, Aixi rejoined the ranks attacking the Restriction.

Pop—

Not long after, the Restriction of the third Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar shattered, and Li Changsheng successfully obtained the paper book.

At this time, less than a minute remained.

Li Changsheng did not attack the next target, and immediately cast his gaze on Dou Yuanbiao and Liu Xuguang.

Dou Yuanbiao had already obtained the treasure from the second Heavenly Gang Returning Origin Pillar, and upon noticing Li Changsheng's gaze, he nodded to Li Changsheng.

Unlike Dou Yuanbiao, Liu Xuguang's progress was slightly slower, with only a thin layer of the Restriction remaining.

Like Li Changsheng, Dou Yuanbiao was also watching Liu Xuguang, and the two men's eyes flickered, neither knowing what the other was thinking.

Li Zhangsheng did not have the idea of directly attacking Liu Xuguang, mainly to avoid Dou Yuanbiao profiting from the situation.

His thought was: to rob, or not to rob?

In the blink of an eye, Li Zhangsheng had an idea and used sound transmission to communicate with the leader of the Tiantai Sect.
