Chapter 33: Chapter 33: Grade-3 Talent Divine Technique! Red Gold Speed

’If I could run into a few Transformed Demon Beasts, that would be awesome!’

Of course, Transformed Demon Beasts were not that easy to come by.

At the very least, the current Su Bai had no idea if there were any Transformed Demon Beasts in the Red District.

Bored and with nothing else to do, Su Bai began to look through the past memories of this Level 3 Wolf Demon.

’This Wolf Demon’s Sin Value has reached Four-Star. It must have devoured a lot of people!’

With this thought in mind, Su Bai continued to peruse its memories.

Only then did he learn the reason why.

This Level 3 Wolf Demon had originally been an ordinary wild wolf, living on a barren mountain within the territory of Great Xia.

One day, it mistakenly ate a special golden fruit, setting it on the path of cultivation.

After gaining some power, its body began to grow larger, and its strength and speed skyrocketed. Malicious intent arose, and it began to constantly raid the chickens, ducks, pigs, and cattle in the village at the foot of the mountain.

After evolving into a Level 1 Demon Beast, it started eating people and frequently wiped out entire villages!

Whenever it sensed a Martial Artist coming to hunt it, the Wolf Demon would secretly flee, find another remote location, and continue its slaughter!

Over several decades, it committed countless sins before finally being captured by the Martial Artists of the Prison Suppression Bureau and sent to the Red District to be used as training for newcomers!

’In just a few decades, this Wolf Demon has probably devoured several times more people than an ordinary Divine Power Realm Demon has killed!’

’No wonder its Sin Value reached Four-Star!’

After finishing looking through the Wolf Demon’s memories, Su Bai had a moment of realization.

Immediately after, Su Bai became somewhat interested in the golden fruit the Wolf Demon had eaten.

From the Purification Tripod, Su Bai learned that after this Wolf Demon died, he would be able to obtain a random item.

’I just wonder if I can get that golden fruit?’

「Three days passed in the blink of an eye.」

During these three days, the Wolf Demon and Su Bai got along quite harmoniously!

That afternoon, Mu Feng opened the stone door and walked into the stone chamber.

"Haha! Not bad! Not bad at all!"

"To be able to get along with this Level 3 Wolf Demon for so long, your courage is extraordinary!"

Seeing Su Bai standing calmly to the side, Mu Feng walked up, patted his shoulder, and praised him.

"Lord Mu, you’re finally here! I can’t take it anymore, this place is..."

"It just stinks too much!"

As he spoke, Su Bai put on an anxious expression and made a move to run out!

"Haha!"

Mu Feng burst into hearty laughter!

The trace of suspicion in his heart vanished completely.

...

Over the next few days, Mu Feng led Su Bai around, having him spend time alone with several other Demon Beasts.

Among them were Tiger Demons, Snake Demons, Rabbit Demons, Cow Demons, and so on...

And through Su Bai’s True Qi suppression, the combined Demon Beasts provided him with over ten thousand Experience Points every day!

It was quite a bountiful harvest!

「One morning.」

Mu Feng led Su Bai down a dark, peculiar corridor.

The murals on the corridor walls were stained with black bloodstains.

DRIP!

And from the pitch-black ceiling of the corridor, large drops of a foul, reeking liquid would occasionally fall!

’What a long corridor!’

The corridor twisted and turned, and after walking for a long time, the two finally arrived at their destination.

"Su Bai, as long as you pass today’s test, you can become a member of my Prison Suppression Bureau!"

"And for today’s test, you just need to stay in this stone chamber for six hours!"

Today, Mu Feng was uncharacteristically stern. He pointed at a Red Stone Gate before them, his expression solemn as he spoke to Su Bai beside him.

Su Bai also understood the seriousness of the matter and nodded.

At the same time, he was a little curious.

’Behind this Red Stone Gate...’

’Could it be that an incredibly terrifying Demon Beast is imprisoned within?’

RUMBLE!

Mu Feng took out a key and, with a deafening roar, opened the Red Stone Gate.

With this thought, Su Bai walked into the stone chamber.

SCREECH!!

The moment he stepped into the stone chamber, a massive golden eagle, bound by chains, let out a long cry at Su Bai!

The sound was like a thunderclap, exploding abruptly inside the stone chamber!

This was a Level 4 Demon Beast!

Moreover, even among Level 4 Demon Beasts, it was considered a very strong one!

The space inside the stone chamber was cramped!

As soon as Su Bai entered, he was less than ten feet away from the giant eagle!

Extremely close!

Su Bai could clearly feel a scorching, incredibly foul-smelling gust of air constantly blasting from the giant eagle’s long, sharp beak!

It scraped against Su Bai’s face like a razor’s edge!

"Su Bai! This is a Level 4 Demon Beast, a Golden Feathered Eagle, and it is extremely ferocious! You must be careful!"

After giving Su Bai this brief warning, Mu Feng turned and left.

This test had also been personally chosen for Su Bai by that Lord Chen.

It was a form of "special consideration," one could say!

He didn’t dare meddle in others’ affairs.

As for whether Su Bai could pass, that was entirely up to him.

’A Level 4 Demon Beast, huh...’

On the surface, Su Bai showed a hint of terror and shock.

But inwardly, he was somewhat ecstatic.

The strength of this giant eagle was comparable to a Martial Artist at the Divine Power Realm Ninth Layer!

The Experience Points it could provide him would naturally be that much higher!

’But someone is spying on me from the shadows. I can’t use my True Qi right now!’

After breaking through to the Extraordinary realm, Su Bai’s Divine Sense had become extremely sharp, and he had already discovered someone not far away monitoring the stone chamber.

This person’s aura was unfamiliar. It wasn’t Mu Feng; it was likely another Martial Artist from the Prison Suppression Bureau.

That was to be expected. After all, it was the final test, so it was only natural that someone would be monitoring Su Bai’s every move.

Of course, Su Bai didn’t believe this person could keep their eyes glued on him every single second.

After all, slacking off is human nature!

He clenched his jaw, his expression filled with terror, yet he looked as if he was still struggling to hold on!

The Martial Artist watching from the shadows saw this and nodded to himself in approval.

Sure enough, after two hours, Su Bai keenly sensed that the person had already left!

HUM!

Su Bai immediately released strand after strand of Golden Purple True Qi, rapidly infusing it into the Golden Feathered Eagle’s body!

The Golden Feathered Eagle’s Heart Spirit trembled, but it continued to glare with its golden eyes, its ferocity undiminished!

’A fierce bird, indeed!’

Su Bai narrowed his eyes and then swiftly increased the amount of True Qi he was infusing!

The Golden Feathered Eagle immediately wilted on the spot!

Its head drooped, and it trembled uncontrollably!

Su Bai only stopped when the Suppression Involvement had once again dropped to five percent.

The Golden Feathered Eagle raised its head and stared at Su Bai with fear and lingering apprehension.

’Hmm, not bad! 250 Experience Points every two hours!’

Another Demon Beast was added to Su Bai’s Purification Tripod.

After finishing the True Qi suppression, Su Bai returned to his previous act, putting on a look of utter terror while struggling to endure!

Seeing Su Bai’s expression...

The Golden Feathered Eagle was baffled!

「Six hours passed in the blink of an eye.」

Su Bai had finally passed the test and become a member of the Prison Suppression Bureau!

That evening, Su Bai, Mu Feng, and others attended a gathering for internal members of the Prison Suppression Bureau.

After the gathering, he returned to his personal residence.

Not long after he had begun to rest, the star point representing the Golden Feathered Eagle on the Purification Tripod in his mind began to slowly fade away.

’The Golden Feathered Eagle is dead?’

Su Bai was slightly stunned.

With a thought, he began the random draw!

Su Bai randomly obtained a red ball of light.

The next moment, countless images began to flood Su Bai’s mind.

In the images, Su Bai seemed to have transformed into a massive golden eagle, radiating a blinding golden light, its speed incomparably fast!

It struck across the vast sky!

It overturned clouds and summoned rain!

A moment later, the images dissipated.

"Congratulations, Tripod Master, for obtaining the Third Grade Talent Divine Power—Red Gold Speed!"
