Beast Taming: Invincible Breeder-Chapter 308 - 283: Prison Demon Transformation

"It’s the sword."

Chi Chenyang realized that it was the King’s Sword pressed against his neck that was sealing his spiritual power and Beast Taming Space. As he tried to shrink his body to avoid the King’s Sword, he stopped immediately.

Chi Chenyang sensed the overwhelming killing intent from the Golden King, as if it was saying, if you move again, I will surely kill you.

The Golden King’s killing intent was genuine, something said and surely carried out.

Moreover, the Golden King was indeed capable of doing so.

Although both were kings, one was a peak king, and the other had just entered the realm; their strengths were worlds apart.

Chi Chenyang urgently shouted, "Golden King, let me go quickly, I have something important."

The Golden King said, "You haven’t explained why you want to summon your beast pet?"

"There’s no time to explain."

The Golden King did not reply, indifferently staring at Chi Chenyang.

Chi Chenyang was very anxious but didn’t dare to move; moving could really get his head chopped off by the Golden King with a single strike.

Moreover, the Golden King killing him would be legal and reasonable. During the Golden Tournament, summoning a beast pet in the audience for no reason without a good explanation made it reasonable for the Golden King to kill him.

Although the pet was not summoned due to the summoning delay, the summoning delay device recorded the fact that he attempted to summon a beast pet.

With no choice, Chi Chenyang explained at a rapid pace, "Summoning a beast pet is to stop this match. Shen Wujiu’s talent is legendary, only win, never lose. If defeated, the talent will backfire, costing him his life."

The Golden King said, "That’s not a reason for you to disrupt the match."

"I’m not disrupting, just stopping."

"Stopping is disrupting. This championship match is critical and mustn’t be interfered with from outside; it’s key to the successful execution of the Golden Qi Luck ceremony. You also once took third place in the Golden Tournament and benefited from it, you should understand."

The Golden Tournament is essentially a grand ceremony, conducted through a competition form to condense the golden fortune.

If the Golden Tournament cannot proceed smoothly, then condensing the golden fortune will fail.

In the Golden Tournament, the championship battle is the final and most crucial step; only after this battle will the golden fortune condense.

Chi Chenyang said, "But without stopping, Shen Wujiu will die; he is the prodigy of the Human Race, the future king, and must be saved."

Stopping the ceremony was impossible, as it would lead to the ceremony’s failure, and the Golden King, as the person in charge, couldn’t afford the loss of six golden fortunes.

However, saving was something the Golden King was willing to do because, after all, he was a prodigy of the Human Race, the future, maybe in the distant future, he might fight alongside Shen Wujiu on the battlefield.

Only the method of saving was a bit special; the Golden King planned to use ’Time Ice’ to save Shen Wujiu. Time Ice is a precious king-level time-based resource that can freeze a person for a hundred years; during these hundred years, it’s as if the person inside is time-stopped.

First, use Time Ice to freeze Shen Wujiu, who is about to die from the backlash, and then hand the frozen Shen Wujiu over to the Shen Clan. The Shen Clan would then take the frozen Shen Wujiu to the old chairman for rescue.

The old chairman can save him.

Because the old chairman had saved someone who had been backlashed by the only-win, never-lose talent before.

That person was the Defeated Monarch among the Ten Monarchs and Ten Kings, his talent was also only-win, never-lose.

He used to be called the Victorious Monarch, undefeated in the monarch level world, even the strongest Celestial Monarch among the Ten Monarchs wasn’t his match. The Victorious Monarch believed there were no opponents within the monarch level. One day, he happened to encounter a new pet being nurtured by the old chairman. Since that pet was at the monarch level, the Victorious Monarch got interested in having a duel and persistently harassed the old chairman for a battle with that pet.

After all, defeating the pet of the invincible old chairman was extremely tempting.

The result... The Victorious Monarch suffered a miserable defeat. Before dying from the talent backlash, the old chairman arrived just in time to save him.

Henceforth, the Victorious Monarch changed his name to the Defeated Monarch, and his personality went from an overconfidence that saw everyone as beneath him to humble and courteous.

"Rest assured, I will save him," the Golden King said.

Chi Chenyang breathed a sigh of relief and, after a while, seeing no action from the Golden King, asked.

"Aren’t you going to save him? Why aren’t you doing anything?"

The Golden King said, "Don’t be impatient, I will save him."

The Golden King casually took out a mouth-sealing tape and sealed Chi Chenyang’s mouth.

...

Urged by the referee’s countdown, Shen Wujiu summoned his sixth beast pet, the Water King Pigeon.

It also was defeated in an instant with just a fiery blast.

Shen Wujiu lost, utterly and completely lost.

People watched in a daze as the strongest contender for the championship lost to a mere Slime. It felt dreamlike!

And it was a crushing defeat; every beast pet was instantly killed.

One appeared, and it was defeated; another appeared, and it was defeated.

"For the first time, I saw a Slime rampage like this. This trip to the Golden Tournament was worth it; it opened my eyes!"

"What a powerful Slime, I also want to nurture one."

"Honestly, I want to, too."

"How can a Slime be so strong?"

"Maybe it’s related to Li Cunxu’s eyes’ Pupil Technique: Blood Banquet Holy Meal?"

"I’m envious, I’d love to have such a Pupil Technique."

"Look quickly, what’s happening to Shen Wujiu?"

Some spectators shouted, drawing the attention of others who turned their gaze toward Shen Wujiu.

Shen Wujiu was suffering a backlash from his only-win, never-lose talent; his body ignited spontaneously. In the flames, Shen Wujiu howled in pain, and in the next second, he burst forth with a black Prison Demon aura. Then, horns sprouted on his head, a tail grew from his backside, and chains exuding dark gas covered his arms.

Shen Wujiu had demonically transformed into a Prison Demon.

Demonic transformation is a sign of pollution by the Deceitful Prison Demon God.

The Golden King, about to unleash Time Ice, froze in place and then spoke in a sinister tone.

"A prodigy of the Human Race? Some prodigy of the Human Race to have pledged allegiance to the Deceitful Prison Demon God."

Afterwards, the Golden King felt immensely relieved. Fortunately, Shen Wujiu was defeated by Li Cunxu and did not win the championship, nor was he allowed to take away the three golden fortunes.

Otherwise, it would have been a great disgrace for the Alliance.

Shen Wujiu could have used the Human Alliance’s golden luck to nurture three Demon God Sect kings to fight against humanity.

This matter, with slight promotion, could greatly diminish the prestige of the Alliance.

If not for Li Cunxu, Shen Wujiu would’ve been the most outstanding individual among the younger generation; having such a prominent figure join the Demon God Sect would make those already unsure about defeating the Evil God even less confident.

Moreover, speaking of golden luck, if the Alliance couldn’t even protect such a priceless thing, doesn’t it suggest that the Alliance is no match for the Evil God?

Shen Wujiu, originally able to hold on for only three seconds under the talent backlash, managed to hold out for twelve seconds after demonic transformation. But ultimately, he succumbed to the talent backlash and turned into a skeleton.

The skeleton, too, seemed inhuman, emitting black gas, with a pair of horns still atop the head, and an additional segment resembling a pig’s tail bone on the tailbone.

Li Cunxu stared at Shen Wujiu’s remaining skeleton. He felt that Shen Wujiu didn’t die so simply and had a premonition that the Demon God Sect might have done something to him; perhaps, he would see Shen Wujiu again in the future.

Before death, Shen Wujiu released all the beast pets from the Beast Taming Space. These pets suffered from the Beast Taming Contract backlash due to Shen Wujiu’s death, among them was the Spiritual Energy Dragon.
