Among the players, only those from Lingxiao Hall learned the Eight Gates Escape Armor.
And aside from Old Mo, Junlin was the only one who could open the third Life Gate.
Starting with the fourth gate, the painful side effects were already more than what ordinary people could endure. Old Mo was a half-tank DPS, so he wasn't concerned.
But Junlin was pure DPS. Opening the third gate was already his limit.
If he couldn't kill with a single strike, then he would be dragged to death by the side effects of the Eight Gates Escape Armor.
Hearing that they needed to form teams to fight, players eagerly started to team up.
I, Xuanqing, looked at my players and said, "Group up. Those who practiced Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill take the lead. The rest follow behind. Fill in any gaps that appear immediately. We'll kill them one by one. Retreat immediately if we encounter a pack of wolves, and don't get entangled unnecessarily."
He had also done his share of private research to bring out the group fighting power of the Second Legion. Having more people was their advantage! This time he intended to fully exploit that advantage.
Seeing this, Flourishing Flowers also began to give orders, "Cloud Lament, a hundred of you join my team, and the rest go to Chaotic Dance Steps' team!"
With teams formed, the players also prepared themselves.
Those who needed weapons took weapons; those who were to serve as tanks did so.
In a corner, Boss Dung Beetle looked at their teams and sighed inwardly.
Not smart enough!
Forming a team was a good idea indeed, but killing Demonic Beasts also came with rewards. How were the players going to share these rewards?
So it was best to have as few people in a team as possible!
Beside him, One Blade 999, Starting with a Dog, Output Relies on Shouting, and Steady as an Old Dog, his four loyal fans, were closely following.
They believed in Boss Dung Beetle, so they chose to follow him.
Ao Xiang Squad, invincible!
"Boss Dung Beetle, what should we do now? Should we join them too?" Starting with a Dog asked.
The other three also looked over.
Boss Dung Beetle shook his head. "You Third Test Players don't have many Contribution Points, and apart from those who pay to win, how many times can the rest of you die?"
At that question, the Ao Xiang Squad fell silent.
Indeed.
They had too few Contribution Points in hand.
Once they ran out of Contribution Points, they would face the danger of being banned.
"The more people there are, the more will die. Once players are down to their last life, do you think they will still charge into battle?"
Boss Dung Beetle chuckled and said, "Knowing Flourishing Flowers and Xuanqing, they might distribute Contribution Points but certainly not too many. At most, they will allow others to maintain their last life. So, in such large-scale battles, it actually comes down to the number of Contribution Points. We won't do as they do. A small squad will do. This time, I've brought the latest batch of Secret Stinky Tofu!"
As he spoke, he pulled out a small leather pouch from his bosom.
A faint trace of its stench wafted out, which the others could smell.
Output Relies on Shouting licked his lips, seemingly eager to try some, while the other three hesitated.
They weren't as extreme as Output Relies on Shouting.
They still couldn't quite handle the smell of Stinky Tofu.
Boss Dung Beetle glanced at the surrounding terrain, his gaze then drifting towards a small path to the right.
"This way!"
Boss Dung Beetle said proudly, "There are footprints here. Someone must have cleared it, which means the Demonic Beasts here are manageable and very likely not living in groups!"
"You're right, Boss. That sounds very accurate."
"We'll take this path. When we find the beast, we'll surround it, and Boss, you handle the solo kill!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Our power is too weak. It's still up to you, Boss Dung Beetle."
"Don't say that; we're all brothers here. I'll give each of you 100 Contribution Points. If anything unexpected happens, resurrect and come back immediately; don't waste time!"
"Thank you, Boss Dung Beetle! We're so moved!"
...
The small group huddled together as they began to distribute Contribution Points.
Now with 100 Contribution Points in hand, they also had more confidence!
Demonic Beast? I'll take on ten!
Boss Dung Beetle led the Ao Xiang Squad towards the right, walking with a spring in his step and quickly separating from the main group.
Xu Nian noticed them, but in the end, just shook his head.
With Boss Dung Beetle, that troublemaker, those four players are not going to end well. The lessons they have to learn are inevitable.
The rest of the people also more or less had their teams sorted out.
Veteran Players were leading New Players in pioneering. Even Junlin and his team also took some Third Test Players.
They understood the principle of cooperation for mutual benefit.
"Let's start the campaign!"
At the command of Xuanqing, players charged into the Dense Forest depths.
Xu Nian then turned and left the Back Mountain area.
With players working hard here, he could just wait for the Task to be completed.
A hundred Demonic Beasts.
For players, that wasn't too hard.
「...」
"Boss Dung Beetle, there's noise ahead!" One Blade 999 spoke urgently, pointing to a dense thicket.
"Let's go. Everyone be quiet. First, let's ascertain if it's a pack animal. Don't act rashly on your own!" Boss Dung Beetle whispered. He motioned with his hand, and then, leading the Ao Xiang Squad, they crept closer.
Behind the bushes, a small Demonic Beast, about the size of a plastic stool, lay on the ground. It was completely white and pure, as if untouched by dust, with a single horn on its head. Numerous bloodstains marked the ground by its feet. Clearly injured, it posed no threat at all.
Seeing this, joy flashed in the eyes of Boss Dung Beetle and his squad. This is a lucky find!
"Surround it quickly!" Boss Dung Beetle hurriedly led the Ao Xiang Squad up to encircle the small Demonic Beast.
Then some relevant information about the small Demonic Beast appeared before them.
[Name: White Roar.]
[Type: Demonic Beast.]
[Quality: Rare.]
[Realm: Foundation Establishment Realm.]
[Description: An undeveloped White Roar. Once raised to full growth, it can reach three feet in height and attack with its roar, under which flesh ruptures and souls scatter!]
[Note: The father of the White Roar is currently looking for food nearby. Please be careful in dealing with it.]
Huh???
This little thing is at the Foundation Establishment Realm? It's even higher than the Realm of the players; how strong will it be when it's fully grown?
Wait a second! This note...
Boss Dung Beetle couldn't help swallowing and then instinctively looked around.
Only after confirming there was no adult White Roar nearby did he finally relax.
"Bo... Boss!" Steady as an Old Dog crouched down, whispering furtively, "There's a Demonic Beast behind you!"
Behind?!
Boss Dung Beetle slowly turned his head, and One Blade 999 and the others also turned to look.
They saw an adult White Roar, three feet tall and about two meters long, ferociously staring at them, its eyes filled with a bloody hue.
It's over!
Boss Dung Beetle couldn't help swallowing.
Doesn't this thing make any noise when it walks? If the White Roar cub is at the Foundation Establishment Realm, what Realm is the adult White Roar in?
"Would you believe me if I said I was just passing by?" Boss Dung Beetle swallowed again and said to the White Roar behind him.
But the next moment, the White Roar fiercely opened its Bloody Mouth and let out a furious roar at them.
ROAR—!
That single roar instantly shattered the bodies of Boss Dung Beetle and his four companions, leaving them deader than dead.
「On the other side.」
Just as Junlin and his team had surrounded a Black Wolf Demonic Beast and were about to make their move, a roar that echoed through the Mountain Forest reached them.
"Holy shit, what kind of Demonic Beast made that roar?"
"Just one roar made my skin crack open; are there really such terrifying Demonic Beasts in these wretched woods?"
"Good thing it's on the other side. We're quite a distance from it, so we should be safe."
"Let's all be careful. Just killing Black Wolf Demonic Beasts is enough; there's no need to provoke other Demonic Beasts to avoid getting wiped out."
...
At such a distance, it could make their skin crack. If it were nearby, wouldn't they be blasted to bits?
As expected. The strength of these Demonic Beasts is too high.
Even Junlin couldn't help frowning, worried about encountering a Demonic Beast powerful enough to instantly wipe them out.
Fortunately, they hadn't gone deep, so they only needed to clear the Demonic Beasts on the outskirts.
Boss Dung Beetle and the Soaring Squad faced each other with wide eyes after their Resurrection.
They hadn't even reacted before they died.
How could anyone anticipate this? This game is unplayable.
"I say, Steady as an Old Dog, why didn't you warn us earlier?" Boss Dung Beetle said helplessly. He hadn't even managed to use his Secret Stinky Tofu before being instantly killed.
It was so frustrating.
Steady as an Old Dog looked stunned for a moment, then explained, "When I saw it, it had already appeared behind you, Boss. It seems to have run over in an instant, and it didn't make any sound."
Hearing this, Boss Dung Beetle completely withdrew into himself.
This team was not easy to lead. And with such a strong opponent, this Task would not be easy to complete.
"This time, listen to me, Steady as an Old Dog, you're on lookout. The three of you follow me to encircle. We must kill at least one creature!" Boss Dung Beetle said grimly. "I just can't believe that we keep running into such powerful Demonic Beasts."
"Let's go, let's go! This time we can definitely do it!" Starting with a Dog also nodded.
It was fortunate that Boss Dung Beetle had given them Contribution Points. Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to go again after dying once.
Third Test Players were utterly broke.
Xu Nian also heard that roar. Just as he arrived at the Taibai Hall, he saw Boss Dung Beetle and his team heading towards the Back Mountain again.
It seemed like they had been instantly killed and sent back.
Boss Dung Beetle's power wasn't simple, and anything that could instantly kill him must be related to that roar just now. What exactly had this guy provoked?
He didn't intend to intervene further but instead walked into the Taibai Hall, planning to discuss the Realm issue with Kong Qingquan and Zhao Qixian.
Now that the Cage is broken, they can't remain complacent. If Celestial One Daoist Sect encountered a Demonic Beast today, what if other forces encountered one later? Hence, preparing in advance is the proper course of action.
Just as he walked to the Entrance of the Great Hall, Kong Qingquan quickly approached. "Sect Leader Xu, what was that roar just now?"
"It's nothing, just a large Demonic Beast." Xu Nian said nonchalantly. "My disciples will handle it. Everyone can rest assured."
With his words, the crowd also felt much reassured.
After all, the Profound Yellow Sect Disciples were reincarnated Immortals, undoubtedly capable of resolving this crisis.
Zhao Qixian, supported by others, came out and said with a wry smile, "Young man, this Old Man has made a fool of himself this time."
