I Break through Crazily

Jiao Zhiming looked at Mu Xianling and the other two, laughing. ”I thought the three of them were stunning from a distance, unbelievably beautiful. Now, up close, they really do look like celestial immortals. One of them looks like a fairy, another has a beauty that makes you want to protect her, and the last one, though still young, has a sweet aura. Three women, three different kinds of beauty. Old Shao, looks like we’ve hit the jackpot!”

”We really have hit the jackpot! I never thought we’d have this kind of luck on a mission,” Shao Yushan said excitedly.

Seeing the two disciples from the West District closing in, almost upon them, and hearing them brazenly comment on their looks, Mu Xianling’s beautiful, willow-like brows furrowed. Her expression was one of utter despair.

She would not let these two have their way. She would rather die!

If the two examinees from the West District caught up to them, Mu Xianling would act immediately, ending her own life rather than falling into the hands of those villains.

She was Tang Yi’s servant. For now, she was Tang Yi’s... No one but Tang Yi could lay a finger on her!

’Huh? Why am I thinking about Tang Yi again?’

As Mu Xianling thought this, her face suddenly flushed red.

Tang Shu and Mi Lu seemed to have made a similar decision, their faces filled with grim determination.

Just as the distance between the two groups was closing, and Mu Xianling and the others were about to fall into the Demon Claws of the West District examinees...

”CROAK!”

A massive cry echoed from nearby.

”BOOM—”

Immediately after, a colossal figure, accompanied by a rumbling sound, crashed through countless trees like a bulldozer and emerged from the side.

The figure was six or seven meters tall, its massive form like a small mountain.

Judging from the powerful aura radiating from it, this was actually a Level 5 Demon Beast!

”Now’s our chance! Run!”

Seeing the sudden appearance of the Level 5 Demon Beast, Mu Xianling’s eyes lit up. She called out to Tang Shu and Mi Lu, and without a second thought, she mustered all her strength and bolted into the distance.

”Trying to run? Not so easy!”

Shao Yushan sneered. He and Jiao Zhiming were about to give chase to Mu Xianling’s group, but...

With a BOOM, the enormous Level 5 Demon Beast stomped down, blocking Shao Yushan and Jiao Zhiming’s path.

To avoid being crushed by the Level 5 Demon Beast’s foot, Shao Yushan and the other man had no choice but to retreat.

’The Level 5 Demon Beast is completely ignoring Mu Xianling’s group, letting them escape, and only blocking our path?’

At this moment, the full appearance of the Level 5 Demon Beast was revealed before Shao Yushan and Jiao Zhiming. It was a Demon Beast that resembled a frog.

However, its skin wasn’t greenish-blue, but a deep red. Under the cover of night, despite the Level 5 Demon Beast’s enormous size, its dark skin didn’t stand out in the darkness. This was why Shao Yushan and Jiao Zhiming hadn’t noticed this Demon Beast as they gave chase.

It was incredibly difficult to spot a Demon Beast hiding at night.

This was why humans were unwilling to travel through the Demon Beast Forest at night; they never knew when or from where a Demon Beast might leap out and ambush them.

The Demon Beast Forest at night was fraught with peril.

Besides its deep red skin, which was different from a frog’s, this Level 5 Demon Beast was covered in deep red spikes. You couldn’t even see them without looking closely. Furthermore, while frogs have no tails, this Demon Beast had a hooked, scorpion-like tail that was utterly terrifying to behold.

”This is...”

Seeing this unusual, enormous Demon Beast, Shao Yushan seemed to recall having read a description of it somewhere, but for the moment, he couldn’t remember what it was.

Just then, Jiao Zhiming pointed at the Demon Beast’s forehead. On the forehead of the Level 5 Demon Beast before them was the mark of a flame. This flame mark was a faint yellow, a stark contrast to the surrounding deep red skin.

”This... This is a Fire Scorpion Giant Frog! To think there’s a Fire Scorpion Giant Frog in the Little Extreme Sacred Land!”

After seeing the flame mark on the Level 5 Demon Beast’s forehead, Shao Yushan finally remembered what kind of Demon Beast this was.

The Fire Scorpion Giant Frog: colossal in size, frog-like in shape, and covered in poisonous spines. A single touch would be fatal to an ordinary person. Its hooked, scorpion-like tail could shoot poisoned needles carrying a fiery venom, making it extremely formidable.

Not only that, but the ”Fire” in Fire Scorpion Giant Frog was because this Demon Beast could also spew flames from its mouth. The flames contained a potent fire venom, so even if the fire didn’t burn an enemy to death, the venom would kill them!

Although the Fire Scorpion Giant Frog was only a Level 5 Demon Beast, its strength was comparable to that of a Level 6 Demon Beast, making it one of the more powerful types of Level 5 Demon Beasts.

”Old Jiao, let’s get out of here!”

After recalling the description of this Demon Beast, Shao Yushan’s expression changed drastically, and he immediately urged Jiao Zhiming to flee for his life.

If it were an ordinary Level 5 Demon Beast, it would be one thing. He, Shao Yushan, and Jiao Zhiming were both Battle Kings. Even if their strength was slightly inferior to the Demon Beast’s, they could still handle it if they worked together.

But this Fire Scorpion Giant Frog was different!

Even with a few more people, they wouldn’t be able to deal with this Demon Beast. Facing such a terrifying existence, even with more men, there was only one path: death!

”But... what about them?”

Hearing Shao Yushan’s warning, Jiao Zhiming glanced in the direction Mu Xianling’s group had fled, his voice full of reluctance.

”Are they more important, or is your life? Let’s go! This Demon Beast is not something we can match! We’ll go find them after we survive this.”

Shao Yushan snapped, then quickly turned and fled.

Frustrated and reluctant, Jiao Zhiming had no choice but to follow Shao Yushan and retreat.

Shao Yushan and his companion fled, but how could the Fire Scorpion Giant Frog let them go so easily?

And then...
