Chapter 666: One-Blade Instant Kill (Second update, requesting everything)

Liu Xuguang's expression now was even uglier than when he heard the news of Liu Zongtang's fall; after all, killing his Demon Beast was, one could say, a grudge of blocking his path to the Dao!

For the vast majority of Monster Tamers, becoming a King is their lifelong goal.

Li Changsheng killing Liu Xuguang's Demon Beast truly counts as a grudge of blocking his path to the Dao.

Originally, Liu Xuguang believed he had a thirty to forty percent chance of becoming a King, but now, missing a Demon Beast, he likely only has ten to twenty percent left.

The more Demon Beasts one breaks through to the Demon King level, the fewer the remaining pets, and their quality is often worse, making the difficulty of breaking through naturally greater. For example, the Tiantai Sect Supreme Elder Zuo Qiulin, his fourth Demon Beast only broke through twenty years ago, and as a result, twenty years have passed without the birth of a fifth Demon Beast, which shows how great the difficulty of breaking through is.

A Monster Tamer's Beast Pet Contract Slots are limited after all. If there are no treasures to increase contract slots, a Pseudo-King has at most nine pets. If one possesses five Demon Beasts, only four uneven pets remain, so the difficulty coefficient of breaking through is naturally imaginable.

Crack—

At this moment, the field began to change; the original Ice Field sank and disappeared, and immediately after, a Grass Field rose and appeared on the arena.

Because Liu Xuguang lost three pet slots, the second field was automatically replaced.

"Will the two contestants please summon their next Demon Pet!"

Seeing that Li Changsheng was already prepared, but Liu Xuguang delayed in taking action, Sun Min, acting as the referee, had to loudly repeat herself.

Liu Xuguang only then reacted; he took a deep breath, trying his best to suppress the negative emotions overflowing in his heart, and regained some rationality.

The next moment, two Blood-colored Hexagrams appeared on the field.

In an instant, Kailan and the Vajra Long-Armed Ape appeared on the field.

Because there were three summoning slots remaining, Liu Xuguang gave up the idea of directly summoning the Epic Dragon Python.

The Vajra Long-Armed Ape possesses a Concentrated Grade Arm-Through-Ape bloodline, possesses a High-Level Monarch species and Superior Quality, is at the 9th rank of the Lord level, and its strength is slightly stronger than the Savage Ice Eagle.

"A third Demon Beast!"

The moment he sensed Kailan's aura, Liu Xuguang's heart sank even further, and a sense of powerlessness filled his entire body.

He had always thought Li Changsheng only had two Demon Beasts, but a third one appeared. Even though his trump card, the Epic Dragon Python, had not yet entered the field, Li Changsheng's Aixi was not inferior in the slightest; his win rate could be said to have dropped to the extreme, almost losing the possibility of a comeback.

At the first moment, both sides buffed their respective Demon Pets with Secret Techniques.

Li Changsheng chose Swift as Wind and Owl's Insight to increase Kailan's speed, perception, and visual range.

On the other side, Liu Xuguang chose Giantization and Wall of Light; the latter is a defensive Secret Technique that can effectively enhance the Vajra Long-Armed Ape's defense.

When the ten-second observation time was about to pass, Kailan began to activate the Wood Realm Descent trait, and countless green light spots began to sprinkle over the earth.

The earth began to revive, and like bamboo shoots after a rain, a large number of tender buds sprouted from underground. In the blink of an eye, they turned into large trees over twenty meters tall, and the entire field turned into a spectacular forest.

Not only that, because of the Grass Field, Kailan's Grassland Domain was activated, significantly enhancing her all-around capabilities.

Kailan's actions made Sun Min, who was on the side, feel her scalp tingle. She had seen Kailan at the Academy Exchange Tournament; at that time, Kailan, who had not yet advanced to the Demon King level, possessed the combat power to contend with ordinary Demon Beasts. Now that she had advanced to the Demon King level, coupled with the various combat power enhancements from Wood Realm Descent, Grassland Domain, and the Innate One Qi Green Lotus, no one knew to what extent her strength had skyrocketed.

According to Li Changsheng's estimation, Kailan's current combat power is probably not much worse than an ordinary Saint Grade Spirit Pet; the Vajra Long-Armed Ape is naturally in a precarious situation.

On the rostrum, Emperor Dou Zhangsheng became increasingly solemn. Li Changsheng already possesses such strength now, let alone in the future.

However, the more aggressive Li Changsheng appeared, the more Dou Zhangsheng was afraid to act rashly. This was also the main reason Li Changsheng was flexing his muscles, to avoid Dou Zhangsheng getting hot-headed and committing irrational acts.

On the other side, Liu Xuguang even had the thought of recalling the Vajra Long-Armed Ape in advance, but because his Consciousness Sea was too shaken, the recall required more preparation.

The moment the observation time ended, Kailan flapped her wings, which were as thin as cicada wings. Her speed was extremely fast, not a whit inferior to Aixi, and she appeared in front of the Vajra Long-Armed Ape in an instant.

During the flight, Kailan condensed a Green Giant Blade over ten meters long in her hands and slashed over with it.

The Vajra Long-Armed Ape was startled by Kailan's ghostly speed, but it still reacted, subconsciously manifesting a layer of shimmering golden barrier on its body surface, wanting to block this strike.

Ding— Crack— Clatter—

Like cutting tofu, the huge Leaf Blade instantly broke through the golden barrier, and then, without losing speed, broke through the defense formed by the Wall of Light. Under the Vajra Long-Armed Ape's terrified gaze, it split it in two with one slash, and countless blood and internal organs scattered all over the ground.

Regardless of rank, quality, species, or bloodline, the Vajra Long-Armed Ape was far inferior to Kailan, and coupled with various combat power bonuses, being killed in seconds by Kailan was a perfectly normal matter.

To put it simply, the vast majority of Lord-level Demon Pets probably cannot withstand a single strike from Kailan.

Seeing the Vajra Long-Armed Ape killed with one slash, Liu Xuguang's eyes turned blood-red, and his body couldn't stop trembling.

Pfft—

Even though a Pseudo-King's Consciousness Sea is far broader and more stable than an ordinary Monster Tamer's, the continuous loss of four Demon Pets caused Liu Xuguang to spit out another mouthful of blood, his expression withered to the extreme, giving people the feeling that if one more main Demon Pet died, he would hang up.

Liu Xuguang hurriedly swallowed an Alchemical Pill, which only then temporarily stopped his violently shaking Consciousness Sea.

"Vajra Long-Armed Ape is dead, will contestant Liu Xuguang please summon the next Demon Pet!"

Sun Min revealed an "as expected" expression and looked at Liu Xuguang with pitying eyes.

Originally, Liu Xuguang's ranking was above hers, but after this battle, his ranking could not avoid the outcome of a sharp decline.

Liu Xuguang did not give up and summoned the Epic Dragon Python. This was his Life-Bound Demon Pet; he did not believe Li Changsheng would kill it here.

Unlike his Dragon Python, Kailan was only Li Changsheng's blood-contracted Demon Pet and was not protected by the rules.

Even if there was only a glimmer of a chance, Liu Xuguang would not give up the idea of killing Kailan.

This was a Dragon Python over sixty meters long; its waist was clearly thicker than a water vat, and its aura was quite terrifying, emitting astonishing Dragon Might.

The Dragon Python was Liu Xuguang's trump card; once it failed, it meant there was no hope of a comeback.

Power outage at home, miserable!
