Chapter 80: Turning My Remains into Fire

ps. The BGM of this chapter is "Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Ten Years in the Human World" (original singer: Li Changchao)

The reason why a divine pet is called a divine pet does not mean that it is the pet of a certain god.

Every divine pet possesses absolute suppressive power over its own attribute, and anyone below the Emperor is nothing more than an ant in front of it.

There are usually two ways for a divine pet to be born.

One is that the pet's affinity for its own superpowers has reached the pinnacle, and by chance it attracted the attention of the gods and received their favor.

Then a miracle will come to the world and baptize the pet, giving it a chance to evolve into a divine pet.

This situation is extremely rare, just like an emperor-level pet suddenly finding a human master for itself, it all depends on luck.

Sometimes you don’t see them once in ten years, and sometimes two appear when they appear.

As for the second way, it is to rely on attributes, talents, and skills.

As long as the attributes break through the boundary line, it will naturally become a divine pet.

However, from ancient times to the present, the number of pets that have become divine pets by simply stacking stats can be counted on one hand.

In comparison, being favored by gods is more reliable.

After all, the elemental gods in this world do not have faith. They are energy bodies formed by supernatural powers and they may appear wherever there is a fierce battle.

Therefore, "you can become stronger by fighting" has always been the eternal theme of the Beast Taming World, because you never know when you can gain the favor of the gods through fighting.

And such a great thing happened to Ji Chen's little Qinglong.

Those cute little elves are the elemental messengers. With laughter and joy, they open the door to let the gods descend to the human world.

The door slowly opened with a faint sigh, and a goddess with a blue body and so beautiful that people could not look directly at her walked out.

Her expression was serene, her eyes sparkling like a lake under the sun, and her five-meter-tall body was magnified with the most beautiful golden ratio. Although she had a beautiful figure, she did not give rise to any romantic thoughts, and people could only worship the ultimate existence in this world.

The God of Waves came stepping on the waves, his dancing figure was like a fleeting shadow.

After seeing Ji Chen with a confused look on his face, the God of Waves smiled as softly as a clear spring and stretched out his slender jade hand.

Ji Chen finally reacted at this time and lowered his head to prepare to receive the baptism of the gods.

The moment the hand of the god touched Ji Chen's head, a blue water curtain fell from the sky, carrying with it a majestic momentum like a mountain pressing down on one's head, and finally melted into Ji Chen's body as gently as foam.

To be precise, it is Ji Chen's pet, the little blue dragon.

After the baptism, the God of Waves turned around and left this world without any regrets.

The audience who witnessed all this finally began to gasp loudly after seeing the gate to welcome the gods closed.

"Was that... the water god?"

"She is as graceful as a startled swan and as gentle as a swimming dragon. It's so beautiful. It turns out that what is described in "The Goddess of Luo River" is true!"

"So Ji Chen's little blue dragon has been favored by the gods and has the opportunity to become a pet of the gods?"

"It's just a slight possibility, but this is already an unimaginable gain, even comparable to the last evolution!"

"That's outrageous. Why does he get all the good things?"

………………

Indeed, Chu Yi also wanted to know why all the good things were his.

Just when we were about to win, the gods suddenly blessed us.

Although Chu Yi had prepared himself mentally for an accident, he did not expect it to be so serious.

Good news, after witnessing the elemental miracle up close, the system jump was accomplished.

“Congratulations to the host for witnessing the elemental miracle with his own eyes and achieving the achievement [Glimpse of the Gods]!
Get 10 random draws, 10 free attributes, and a guaranteed draw! "

I had hoped to get some red skills, but in the end all I got were rewards that were better than nothing.

But something is better than nothing, so Chu Yi immediately used up all the rewards he had just received.

The God of Luck obviously didn't see him, the sky was still blue and the clouds were white, and the golden skill he got as a guaranteed bonus was useless to him.

Fortunately, there were some medicines to restore physical strength. After using them, Chu Yi felt that the fatigue and soreness all over his body were instantly relieved a lot.

But, does it make sense?
Looking at the Monkey King who had collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness, he knew that even if he injected more strength into him, he would not be able to keep fighting.

"Is it finally...over?"

Chu Yi raised his head and looked around. He saw his opponents celebrating their victory with joy, and his teammates with pale faces and sad expressions.

Of course, he also saw his parents.

His parents nodded at him proudly, as if to say that it was enough, he had proven his strength and was undoubtedly the strongest in this competition.

"No, not enough!"

Chu Yi suddenly roared in dissatisfaction and rushed out of the contestant area angrily: "The game is not over yet, I can still fight!"

This sudden scene made everyone look stunned.

The referee rushed into the ring and said, "Please stay calm, contestant Chu Yi. Your pet has lost its ability to fight..."

"Isn't there a rule in the competition that Beastmasters can't go on stage to fight?" Chu Yi raised his face and asked stubbornly.

Of course there is no such rule. If there really was, Ji Chen would have been asked to step down when he merged with Xiao Qinglong.

However, primary school students are generally weak in strength, so as long as their pets lose their combat ability, they basically lose the game.

But in fact, in any game, the Beastmaster can take over the pet and continue fighting.

"Contestant Chu Yi, have you considered the consequences?"

The rules allow it and the players themselves also wish to do so, so the referee certainly cannot force a stop, but he still asked very seriously.

"I've thought about it." Chu Yi nodded heavily.

Then, in everyone's shocked gazes, Monkey Brother was sent to the contestant area to rest, and Chu Yi took over and continued to fight!

"There's really no need for that."

After receiving the baptism, Ji Chen seemed to have recovered a lot of his strength, but when he faced Chu Yi, his expression was not proud or contemptuous. Instead, he advised very seriously: "You have become the strongest, why do you still risk continuing to fight? What can you prove?"

"Yeah, what can that prove?"

Chu Yi forced a wry smile, his eyes flashed with a moment of doubt, but then he became determined again.

In fact, it proves nothing.

But he wanted an answer.

That is, what is he after losing the guidance of the system?
In the eyes of the world, he is the genius who trained the little fire monkey into the war monkey, and the pillar of the invincible team. He is the number one in this session who even the Son of Destiny admits cannot be defeated!

But Chu Yi knew very well that all these honors actually came from his system.

Without the attribute values ​​assigned by the system, and without the various golden skills and talents rewarded by the system, he actually has nothing.

Including every previous victory, there would be a system-issued task in advance to serve as a catalyst for his victory.

It feels like a puppet, and all his growth is proceeding according to the guidance of the system.

Although he is willing to take this path, he cannot accept the flowers and applause that come along this path with complete peace of mind.

It is said that Ji Chen is the son of destiny and his luck is so good that it seems like he has been blessed with luck.

But it was obvious that his cheats were bigger than Ji Chen's, and were completely beyond the cognition of this world.

But at this moment he seemed to have become a tragic hero.

This is not the result Chu Yi wants to see.

Now, the entire finals system has not provided any guidance for his future.

But Chu Yi did not feel confused because of this. Instead, he felt that this was the best opportunity.

He could take this opportunity to forge his own path. Of course, Chu Yi also knew that this path was very dangerous, and if he was not careful, he could be seriously injured or even lose his life.

But only by taking this path can Chu Yi truly feel:
He, Chu Yi, truly lived in this world!
He has never been a puppet of the system, but a person who can control his own destiny!

"Remember what I said before?"

Facing Ji Chen's question, Chu Yi's smile was still as bright as the sun: "I will burn out all my energy for this championship. Even if there is only a little bit of strength left, it is not called burning out!"

"boom!"

With Chu Yi's low roar, the Samadhi True Fire was reignited.

Although he has not yet refined the middle dantian, he can use all of Monkey King's skills as long as he has the synchronization.

Moreover, compared to Monkey Brother's recently surging true energy, the energy in his body is undoubtedly much more abundant.

However, the two previous battles had already consumed most of his beast control power, so this fire would be his last ripple.

“Come on, Ji Chen, use all your strength.

If you win, you will step on my body to reach the throne, and no one will ever use so-called luck to offset all your efforts.

If I win, you will become my strongest opponent in the battle for the title of God, and you will also gain glory second only to me!"

Chu Yi punched his chest, and the flames on his body became more and more intense.

Ji Chen looked at the strongest opponent he had ever met in his life with a serious expression. Finally, he raised his hand and waved it. Dozens of surging water columns suddenly smashed towards Chu Yi.

"Eight Gates of Ninjutsu, third gate of life, open!"

The raging fire swept through, and the surging waves of true energy created a sky for Chu Yi under the attack of the water column. No matter how Ji Chen controlled the impact of the water column, it could not get close at all.

"Is that all, Ji Chen?"

Chu Yi roared at Ji Chen and punched him hard at the same time.

The terrifying force of the punch cleared a path through the accumulated water that covered the entire venue, revealing the cracked floor below.

The squeezed water waves collided with the protective shield, creating waves several meters high.

With just one strike, Ji Chen was blasted more than ten meters away!
"This...how is this possible!"

Ji Chen looked at Chu Yi in disbelief, his expression as if he had seen a ghost.

Not only him, but every audience member at the scene had almost the same expression.

"This... How can a nine-year-old child have such strong fighting power?"

"Is this still a human? It's simply a humanoid pet!"

"You are such a hidden talent, Chu Yi. It turns out that your last trump card is yourself!"

"This attack is at least at the level of a level 20 legendary pet. I didn't expect Chu Yi to not only be good at training pets, but also have an absurdly high talent in training his own body!"

"Genius, this is the real genius!"

........................

At this moment, people shouted even more fiercely. They finally understood the weight of Chu Yi's words yesterday.

In this world, it is not only the children's words that are careless and should not be taken seriously.

These are all excuses for speaking without restraint, and this is even more so at Chu Yi's age.

The young man is chivalrous and makes friends with heroes from five cities. He is brave and courageous, and his hair stands on end. His promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold!

This is the responsibility he should have as a man. If he says he wants to win the championship, he will definitely try his best.

And with Chu Yi's domineering punch, Ji Chen was completely awakened.

His opponent still has the strength to defeat him, so there is no point in him asking for mercy.

"Hetu·Weak Water Three Thousand!"

Ji Chen stood up again and raised his hand. Immediately a spring appeared under his feet. Dark spring water gushed out from it and spread to Chu Yi's feet in the blink of an eye.

This is the skill he acquired after being baptized by the God of Water - [River Map]. After using it, he can command all the rivers in the world and even simulate rivers with strange powers that only exist in myths.

The Three Thousand Weak Waters naturally simulates the Weak Water that is said to be so deep that not even birds or beasts can cross it.

And the power it represents is an unparalleled gravitational field.

Facing a melee king like Chu Yi, using a gravity field to restrict his movements is the best option.

This is not the end yet. Ji Chen, who had just used the Weak Water Three Thousand, suddenly dropped his raised hand.

"Hetu: The water of the Yellow River comes from the sky!"

As he shouted, a huge hole suddenly opened in the sky, and the turbid Yellow River water gushed out. The waterfall carrying mud and sand became even more violent under the acceleration of the supergravity field of the weak water, and almost instantly crushed Chu Yi to the ground.

At this moment, Chu Yi felt as if the Five Finger Mountain of Buddha was pressing down on him. The blood in his body was wailing, and every joint was wailing.

However, his neck, with bulging veins, was held high like steel or iron, as if no force in the world could make him bow his head.

Because people can be killed but never defeated!

"Eight Gates of Ninjutsu, fourth wounding gate, open!"

A roar filled with tearing sounds resounded throughout the venue. The surging flames mixed with the true energy directly blew Ji Chen away, and at the same time evaporated all the liquid around him.

Including blood oozing from the pores.

Although he has added points to both mental and physical fitness evenly over the years, without favoring one over the other.

But in a battle of this level, the human body is still far from adequate.

After only opening the fourth door, his body had reached its limit.

Chu Yi stood up trembling in severe pain and saw Ji Chen hunched over, holding his chest and coughing.

"Didn't I defeat you?"

Chu Yi sighed helplessly, and the raging flames on his body instantly subsided.

His heart still longed to fight, but his body could no longer support him.

For some reason, a song he had heard before suddenly came to his mind:

With a burning and stubborn heart, I walked towards the most lenient execution ground, and after being torn and shattered, all that was left was a hollow echo.

In the end, I was actually glad that the sunset was still on me, and I didn’t have time to tell you how exciting the story was…

The place fell into dead silence, everyone held their breath, their hearts almost jumping out of their throats.

But more than half a minute had passed, and Chu Yi on the stage still hadn't made any changes.

He still stood upright, the Samadhi Fire in his body was still burning, but his eyes had lost focus.

"Is this...losing consciousness while standing?"

Someone squeezed out a groan-like sigh from his tight throat.

All the audience looked at Chu Yi with respect and were deeply impressed by his appearance at the moment.

Emaciated, a burning skeleton.

This is probably the last impression Chu Yi left on everyone on this stage.

"Is it finally over?" Ji Chen stared at his opponent with a dull look, and said with a lingering fear on his face.

However, just as the medical staff were preparing to go on stage to provide treatment, a golden gate suddenly opened in the sky.

"Wu... The Gate of the God of War?!"

When several knowledgeable bosses saw this scene, their eyes almost popped out of their heads.
