C99

In the vast wasteland, in a forest.

"Boom!"

A sharp sword light slashed through the air as a gigantic spirit beast crashed to the ground at the end of the sword light. A sword cut straight through the skull between the eyebrows, extinguishing all life.

Nearby, a youth in green was standing with a sword in hand. The tip of the sword was stained with blood. His somewhat young and tender face was indifferent as he watched the scene unfold without any ripples.

Weng! *

At this moment, a dazzling divine light tore off the corpse of the spirit beast and poured into the arm of the green-clothed youth, gradually forming a complete small sword. This scene caused the youth's expressionless face to finally reveal a trace of joy.

This green-clothed youth was Cang Yun. It had already been half a day since the start of the wasteland exam. During this time, he had already killed many spirit beasts and gradually understood the rules of the exam.

In this wasteland, every single spirit beast possessed more or less the Immortal Yang Sword Token. One thousand of the level one spirit beasts had a sword token, one tenth of the level two spirit beasts had a sword token, and ten of the level three spirit beasts had a sword token.

As for the 5th step and above, Cang Yun didn't try again, but from these speculations, the higher the rank, the more Immortal Yang Sword Medallions he would obtain.

In just half a day, Cang Yun had killed most of the Rank 3 Spirit Beasts. He had only killed one Rank 4 Spirit Beast and had obtained a total of two Immortal Yang Sword Medallions.

Honestly speaking, this speed was too slow. After all, there was only a total of ten days. With this kind of progress, he could only obtain a maximum of forty Immortal Yang Sword Medallions. This kind of result was far from what he could achieve in the first stage.

Many of them were not weak, so killing Rank 4 Spirit Beasts shouldn't be difficult. There were even many Rank 5 people who could do it. If this continued, the advantage he would gain from the first trial would disappear without a trace.

A sense of urgency rose in his heart!

Cang Yun's desire for treasures was no less than anyone's. In fact, because his cultivation level was too low, his need for the Immortal Yang sword token was even greater. Because of this, he had to gather as much as possible for the Immortal Yang sword command.

"This space seems to have divided everyone. I don't know about the gains of others, so I must pursue my own limits. That way, even if I can't obtain first place, there will be no regrets!" Cang Yun made up his mind.

Aside from the possibility of inheriting an inheritance, the results of the first stage allowed him to obtain a hundred Immortal Yang sword tokens. He did not know if the second stage would continue to have this rule, but if it did, then the reward would not be low, so he had to fight for it with all his might.

"It's time to head to the center of the wasteland. Rank 5 Spirit Beasts are my true target!"

Cang Yun gazed into the distance before flying off in the direction where the source energy was denser.

Four hours later, in the depths of the Wasteland.

Here, ancient trees towered into the sky and strange, steep terrain could be seen everywhere. Looking from afar, there were many places that emitted a dangerous aura that caused one's heart to palpitate.

Clearly, danger lurked everywhere!

Cang Yun stopped in his tracks and spread out his psychic power like a tidal wave. He could sense the auras of the surrounding spirit beasts.

This was his advantage. In the vast wasteland, even if there were a lot of spirit beasts, it would still take a lot of effort for him to quickly and accurately find a suitable prey. With the help of Mental Energy, Cang Yun could shorten the time to the minimum.

A moment later, his eyes lit up. Cang Yun had already found a suitable spirit beast!

"That direction!"

After muttering to himself, Cang Yun started to move again. He followed the direction that Shi Yan could sense with his Spirit Power.

After the time it took to boil a cup of tea, on a wasteland grassland, a giant red-haired ape was resting. Its body was enormous like a small mountain as it pressed down on the grassland.

"Rank 5 Spirit Beast, Fire Ape!"

Cang Yun retracted his aura, but his heart was filled with excitement. He could feel the aura of the Immortal Yang Sword Token within this fire ape's body. Obviously, it was extremely valuable!

"I'll start with you and you're still sleeping. This is my chance!"

The azure cloud quietly approached and a dark black short sword unknowingly appeared within his palm.

Closer. Now was the time!

Suddenly, the azure cloud shot out like a released bow and arrow, the sword tip aimed straight at the chest of the fire ape!

Roar!

The moment Cang Yun made his move, the Fire Ape finally felt a sense of danger. It leapt into the air, and its bowl-sized eyeballs stared at the azure cloud with an ominous glint in their eyes.

This insignificant human dares to provoke its dignity!

Its strong ape arm was raised horizontally, precisely blocking the path of the dagger.

"Boom!"

The short sword stabbed into the ape arm, and in that instant, Origin Energy gushed out in all directions. A terrifying wave of air directly pushed Cang Yun back.

This sword was blocked by the fire ape and only left an extremely small wound on its arm. A few drops of blood dripped down and then the wound began to wiggle and it was covered with scars.

"What a strong defense!" Rank 5 Spirit Beasts are not easy to deal with! "

Cang Yun's gaze turned grim. All the Spiritual Beasts in this world were extremely rare existences. Their strength had nearly reached the peak of the same grade. They were extremely powerful!

Roar!

Even though Cang Yun's sword attack had failed, it had aroused the fierce nature of the Fire Ape. Its eyes revealed a fierce light and its footsteps shook the earth as it charged forward like an ancient giant.

A huge fist was raised high above Cang Yun's head. Like an iron hammer, it viciously smashed down!

This punch was extremely powerful. If he was hit by it, Cang Yun's small body would have definitely turned into mincemeat in an instant!

At this critical moment, Cang Yun's footsteps flashed again and again as he stepped back with mysterious steps.

BOOM!

A millstone-sized fist almost brushed past Cang Yun's body. The unparalleled wind from the fist caused the azure Yun's green robe to flutter as his face became as if it was being cut by a knife.

And at the place where Cang Yun had been standing, a massive crater was directly formed on the ground. With a single glance, it was truly shocking!

"My god, his strength isn't much weaker than an ordinary Rank 6 Spirit Beast, right?"

Cang Yun was secretly speechless. The strength of the Spiritual Beasts in this space was too strong. Only those of the same rank would be able to match it. To kill it, one would need to at least have the ability to challenge those of a higher rank.

"With my cultivation base, it's almost impossible for me to kill this fire ape!"

In a split-second, Cang Yun's mind flashed with thoughts. Although his Origin Energy was extraordinary and he had a high level Origin Skill, his strength was too low. With only the third layer of the Secret Treasure, his strength was incomparable to the almost invincible Fire Ape below the sixth step.

Roar!

At this time, the enraged Fire Ape rushed over once again. Its huge fist could sweep through thousands of enemies. It seemed as if it wanted to kill the azure cloud with its palm.

"Crack!"

Cang Yun leaped up and barely dodged a sweep.

"There's no need to be polite."

The next moment, taking advantage of the Fire Ape's opportunity, Cang Yun hurriedly retreated until he was out of the attack range of the Fire Ape. Then, with a flick of his mind, five soul imprints that contained a mysterious aura suddenly flew out.

BOOM!

Suddenly, the heaven and earth origin force violently shook. Five soul imprints spiraled above the head of the fire ape. Multicolored light bloomed, turning into beams of golden light that fell down!

Duskfall Flowing Gold!

Weng! *

Sunset filled the sky, and the golden pillar pierced the ground!

A sharp golden beam of light shot down, carrying with it a violent source energy fluctuation. It was like a meteor falling from the sky, piercing through the void.

An ear-piercing sound rang out as the golden light collided with the body of the fire ape at an unbelievable speed.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Roar!

Countless golden lights exploded like Origin Energy Bombs. Wherever they landed, the body of the fire ape was torn apart.

The fire ape howled in pain. In a short moment, its body was covered in finger-sized bloody holes, and fresh blood gurgled out of its body. It gathered on the ground to form a small stream.

"Hiss, this soul skill is actually so terrifying!"

On the other side, Cang Yun himself was greatly shocked. This soul skill, Duskfall Flowing Gold, was naturally gifted to him by Dongfang Chen, and was also the move the latter used to attack the Purple Gold Python.

However, the power of this soul skill far surpassed Cang Yun's expectations.

Cang Yun remembered that when Dongfang Chen had used it that day, although it was also powerful, it had not been able to do much damage to the Violet-Gold Berserker Creation. This made Cang Yun once thought that the soul skill was not very strong, but after personally testing it out, he changed his mind.

"Back then, Dong Fang Chen was the same as me, also at the fifth seal stage, so the power of our soul skill should be about the same. The reason why he was unable to harm the Purple Gold Python is not because this soul skill isn't strong, but because the Purple Gold Python's defense is too exaggerated. After all, the Purple Gold Python is at the Nihility God Stage, so even though its vital energy and blood are weak, the defensive power of its body isn't much weaker." With a quick thought, Cang Yun figured out the crux of the matter.

"Looks like that guy really did not trick me." Cang Yun smiled slightly, and his impression of Dong Fang Chen rose again. This person had a straightforward personality and was someone he could befriend. He just didn't know when he would meet him again.

Roar!

It had finally broken free from the golden light that filled the sky. Although its body was covered in blood and there were bloody holes all over it, compared to its huge body, these injuries were still tolerable. They were not enough to cause it to lose its ability to fight.

After being tormented by such pain, the fire ape's hatred for Cang Yun also soared. It let out an angry roar and ignored the pain as it pounced towards Cang Yun once again.

"How troublesome."

Cang Yun frowned. Although the Fire Ape was injured, its soul technique had consumed quite a bit of its spirit. If this were to continue, then even if he killed the Fire Ape, Cang Yun would need some time to recover.

However, for Cang Yun, who was short on time, this was hard to accept!

"Then, let's try this again!"

As the sound of his voice faded, a tall and sturdy silhouette appeared beside Cang Yun.
