Chapter 289 Live Broadcast of National Fortune: The Male Lead's Fiancée Who Was Rejected VS. Hu
The second wave of beasts attacked the position for two days, and they spent another two days resting and regrouping. There was only one day left before the third wave of beasts arrived.
The monsters in the second wave of the beast tide were already low-level monsters, and the monsters in the third wave of the beast tide will definitely be higher-level monsters than low-level monsters.
Su Jinyue did not continue her seclusion, so Pei Chuyuan and the other two would probably be of no use in the third wave of beast tide.
Su Jinyue was not at ease if Chen Zhengyuan was the only main force.
Chen Zhengyuan, with his Golden Core stage strength, should theoretically be safe, but the two had discussed beforehand that they should conceal their true strength and keep some trump cards up their sleeves, since their ultimate enemy was the entire nation's destiny livestream.
With Su Jinyue and Chen Zhengyuan working together, and with the overall setup of the position, it wouldn't be too abrupt to safely weather the third wave of beast tide.
With only one day left, Su Jinyue couldn't go into seclusion, so she intensified her cultivation. Her cultivation level was still too low, so even though she only had one day, Su Jinyue set up a spirit-gathering array in the stone house to accelerate the absorption of spiritual energy.
Before the third wave of beasts arrived, Qi Yaoting finally finished drawing in Qi into his body. He opened his eyes, felt the abundant power within his body, and felt that he was invincible.
But he was immediately overwhelmed by the stench of the impurities expelled from his body after the cleansing process. Qi Yaoting quickly went to the washroom built outside the cave and took several showers before he was clean.
After tidying himself up, Qi Yaoting realized how vast the future world was after he began to draw in Qi and officially embark on the path of cultivation.
With just one breath induction, Qi Yaoting discovered that he had undergone a complete transformation and was no longer the same person he used to be.
Qi Yaoting's eyes gleamed. Being chosen by the national fortune live broadcast to enter the trial grounds meant not only crisis, but also opportunity.
This is his chance. If he seizes it, it will be of great benefit to both him and the Qi family!
"Brother Qi, you're finally awake. It's all Su Jinyue's fault for attacking without warning..."
Sun Siqi knew that Qi Yaoting had woken up and had wanted to come over, but Qi Yaoting smelled so bad that Sun Siqi didn't have the courage to go forward.
So, Sun Siqi waited nearby, and when she saw him come out, she quickly came over.
Qi Yaoting snapped out of his grand vision and saw Sun Siqi eagerly approaching him. A glint flashed in his eyes, but then his face regained the gentleness he had shown when facing Sun Siqi.
"Siqi, stop targeting Su Jinyue. She helped me for my own good, so I could quickly absorb Qi into my body."
Actually, when it comes to what happened between us, we were the ones who wronged her.
Moreover, Su Jinyue is very powerful. There are only five of us from China in the national fortune live broadcast, so it's better to stick together.
Siqi, you still need to focus on your cultivation. Seriously, after you guide Qi into your body, the world you see will be completely different. I don't even know how to describe it to you.
Didn't you already have water-based abilities? Hurry up and cultivate them, then you'll see that what I'm saying is true..."
Seeing Qi Yaoting getting more and more excited as he spoke, Sun Siqi was dumbfounded. What's wrong with Brother Qi? Has he been bewitched?
She was clearly standing up for Brother Qi, so why did Brother Qi advise her not to target Su Jinyue?
Furthermore, is it that she doesn't want to cultivate and draw qi into her body?
The key issue is that no matter how she cultivates, she can't draw qi into her body.
Sun Siqi realized that Brother Qi had changed; he was no longer the Brother Qi who used to revolve around her.
In fact, Sun Siqi's feeling was not wrong. After Qi Yaoting introduced Qi into his body, although he felt that he was still as gentle as before when facing Sun Siqi, his attitude towards others had unconsciously changed after his strength improved.
Previously, he had given in to Sun Siqi because of her mysterious and unpredictable abilities and her sudden appearance of water-based superpowers. Qi Yaoting wanted to gain benefits from Sun Siqi and rely on her to survive in the trial grounds, which is why he protected Sun Siqi in every way.
But now that Qi Yaoting has a cultivation technique and has been able to draw qi into his body, his strength is already greater than Sun Siqi's.
Moreover, Sun Siqi's mysterious abilities became increasingly ineffective in the Trial Grounds, and Qi Yaoting's chauvinistic tendencies began to surface.
Previously, Qi Yaoting needed to rely on Sun Siqi to survive, but now that their positions have reversed, Qi Yaoting finally treats Sun Siqi as his woman.
The other three people in the cave didn't want to know too much about the entanglement between these two.
Su Jinyue came out of the stone house and exchanged a glance with Chen Zhengyuan, who had just stood up. They both understood each other; it seemed the other had also noticed.
The third wave of beasts is here!
"Assemble! The beast tide is coming! Prepare for battle!"
Once outside the cave, Chen Zhengyuan began to organize the team and assign tasks to each person.
Fortunately, everyone understood the seriousness of the situation. Chen Zhengyuan gave the order, and the others quickly carried it out.
The second wave of low-level magical beasts were all below the fifth level of the Qi Refining stage, so they weren't very strong. Chen Zhengyuan consciously trained Pei Chuyuan and the other two in combat awareness, and would subtly lure them over to fight when the opportunity arose.
Pei Chuyuan and Qi Yaoting seemed to realize this, so they cooperated actively every time, and their skills and strength gradually increased.
As for Sun Siqi, Chen Zhengyuan gave up on her after seeing her running around in terror from the monster that had been deliberately released.
During the third wave of the beast tide, Su Jinyue released her divine sense to investigate and found that most of the magical beasts were between the fifth level of the Qi Refining stage and the early stage of the Foundation Establishment stage.
These are beyond the capabilities of Pei Chuyuan and Qi Yaoting.
Fortunately, Su Jinyue had reinforced the defenses throughout the entire position, preventing the magical beasts from getting in and ensuring their safety.
Since Su Jinyue's poison was still effective, she took out a large quantity of it and gave it to the two men, instructing them to apply it to the arrowheads. The poison would take effect as long as blood was drawn.
Even if it can't kill the monsters immediately, it can slow down their attack.
Su Jinyue probed the distance with her divine sense. The magical beasts were still coming in droves, but she always felt that there were even more powerful magical beasts hiding in the distance that she could not detect.
Su Jinyue looked at Chen Zhengyuan, somewhat eager to try. Chen Zhengyuan seemed to understand what she meant, but he shook his head.
Chen Zhengyuan disagreed, and Su Jinyue was somewhat discouraged.
Su Jinyue is currently at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, and she only needs one more opportunity to break through to the Golden Core stage. Since there is no lightning tribulation in the Trial Grounds, she is thinking of finding a powerful magical beast to fight, which may help her break through.
However, Chen Zhengyuan did not agree. Oh well, Chen Zhengyuan is the captain now, so we can only listen to him. We'll find another opportunity later.
The group fought for a whole day, but the beast tide showed no signs of abating. Pei Chuyuan and Qi Yaoting were getting numb from shooting arrows.
Chen Zhengyuan saw that this was not a solution, so he let the two of them go down to rest first. They were only at the Qi Refining stage and their spiritual power was insufficient. They could take turns fighting later.
