The Journey of Overthrowing the Celestial Emperor
Ch. 126 ~ Poisonous Animals

"Make the Mermaid Race my subordinate!"

"What...?"

Kontan was wide in the eyes of Yu Xiao and Yu Ren Lan, upon hearing Zhang Ziyi's request earlier. According to them, Zhang Ziyi's actions had crossed the line.

Yu Xiao again drew his sword, and was intending to attack Zhang Ziyi. Yet again and again he was blocked by King Yu Tie.

"Dad, don't get in my way! He's been so over the line." Yu Xiao said in a high tone.

King Yu Tie did not reply. He simply coded Yu Xiao not to take action. For the second time, Yu Xiao was made unable to pucker. He grazed his sword and retreated to where he was.

Zhang Ziyi put up a small ridge. Though he only intended to test King Yu Tie just now. But it was unexpected that this King Yu Tie would actually approve of it.

"It's good that he agrees, count up to add my followers in the face of the Sky emperor's army later!" inner Zhang Ziyi.

Although King Yu Tie had yet to say the answer, but from the actions shown in reprimanding Yu Xiao earlier, Zhang Ziyi had dared to conclude that this half-fish man would definitely agree to it.

"All right! You will become the leader of the Mermaid race, if you manage to defeat the Evil Octopus Monster." King Yu Tie said expressionlessly.

"Dad! Why did you agree to it!?" yu Xiao Protest.

"This is for the good of our mermaid race. If he doesn't help us in defeating the Evil Octopus Monster, then the mermaids will definitely only remain a name! After all, he would not necessarily be able to survive the test later on!" King Yu Tie spoke in a high tone. But there is hope in his sentence. Whether it was the hope of Zhang Ziyi's death when the child faced the test of obtaining instant strength, or rather the hope of Zhang Ziyi's victory in fighting the Octopus Monster.

"But–!"

"Don't argue!" King Yu Tie said coldly.

Yu Xiao no longer intended to refute. Although the day is still upset and does not accept this decision of his father.

"Thank you, Mermaid King! I promise to pass this test, and defeat the Evil Octopus Monster, for you!" Zhang Ziyi said confidently while cupping his hands. Paying respect to King Yu Tie.

King Yu Tie nodded.

"My– time is not much! There are still many royal affairs that I have to settle. If you're ready, then say it and we'll start the test!"

Zhang Ziyi nodded. He sighed for a moment. Expel the worries that had lodged in him.

"I'm ready, King! We can start right now!" Zhang Ziyi said with complete confidence.

"Go to the middle of the stage."

Zhang Ziyi followed the instructions of the half-fish human Race King. He swam to the center of the stage. Stand on the stage floor. Waiting for what he will receive.

The Mermaid King cast a spell. Suddenly four large chains emerged from the floor of the stage arena. The chains moved like snakes and bound Zhang Ziyi's hands and feet.

Zhang Ziyi had no intention of fighting those chains. He let them tie his hands and feet.

Finished with that, the king of the Mermaid Race returned chanting.

Some ancient patterns look floating. The Zhang Ziyi. Afterwards they moved and fused with each other, creating an enormous dome, following the size of the 100-meter stage.

"The first test has begun. This exam will change at any time. You must be ready to accept everything without being able to fight back!" said King Yu Tie. Afterwards he left Zhang Ziyi.

Yu Ren Lan as well as Yu Xiao himself also followed the Mermaid Race King. However before leaving the place, they had a chance to look at Zhang Ziyi for a long time. A look full of meaning. Although Yu Xiao had previously been annoyed with Zhang Ziyi, he still could not bear to imagine how Zhang Ziyi's fate would be in the future.

"Brother Ziyi, may you be able to pass this test!" inner Yu Xiao. After that he passed from there.

"I hope that you will be able to clear this test, Zhang Ziyi!" inner Yu Ren Lan. He also left the place.

Laohu remained who did not move at all. He intended to wait for his master, until his master got out of there. Keeping something dangerous close to Zhang Ziyi.

On the other hand, Zhang Ziyi who was currently being confined, unceasingly took a deep breath. Although he had not received the test, yet somehow he had first gotten a very bad feeling about it. Several times he tried to calm himself. Had succeeded, but did not last long, the worry came back to him. This time, he felt that way.

"Hopefully everything will be fine!" muttered Zhang Ziyi.

It was fastened by a sturdy chain, as well as an energy wall that covered itself with an outer region. There was no way Zhang Ziyi could escape. Given this chain that is so sturdy.

He looked around. One or two seconds, but no sign of anything dangerous will happen.

Some time, the Beasts that had the deadly could appear. Both venomous animals that exist on land, as well as in the sea. Everything seemed full and filled such a vast stage.

Everything moved in a direction towards Zhang Ziyi. Be it snakes, scorpions, centipedes, and many other deadly venomous animals.

Zhang Ziyi stomped, seeing some of the venomous animals climbing on his body. The snake started rolling its arms and biting its body. Each of the animals began to launch its attacks. Placing the teeth as well as the venomous body parts towards Zhang Ziyi's body. Even small animals had entered Zhang Ziyi's nostrils and earholes. Then began to launch the action in both holes.

Zhang Ziyi's skin started to peel off. These animals are so many. Even reaching thousands. Everything was gnawing at Zhang Ziyi's body.

He no longer bleeds. His body had turned blue, like an undead in just a short period of time. Zhang Ziyi persisted. Both eyes he was tight.

"Wait a few more minutes Ziyi, maybe. These insects won't be long!" Zhang Ziyi bathed, cheering himself on. He's a ringing manahan in his mouth. Not intending to open his mouth, afraid that the animals would instead enter his mouth.

The pain did not stop raining down on his body. The heat is accompanied by infinite pain. His spirit was forced to escape from his body.

These animals can be stronger than the animals in general. It might be about seven to twelve times stronger than ordinary animals.

Even a one-time hit can from an ordinary snake, can directly threaten your life. What about the unusual snake?

Luckily, this Zhang Ziyi had immunity to poison so he could still suppress the poison that entered his body. Still, he felt extreme pain. Even to his bones. The spray can be so powerful. If only one insect, he may still be able to withstand it, however, these are thousands of insects with various painful flavors. Mixed up in his body.

Zhang Ziyi gushed. Plunging venomous animals attached to his body. Yet only one two three had fallen, other than that, all of them clinging onto Zhang Ziyi's skin. It was no longer the skin, but rather the flesh of Zhang Ziyi.

Zhang Ziyi did not remain silent. He used the Fire element to burn his body. Damn, the fierce fire, even made the pain more brutal, and doubled. Nothing happened to these animals. Everything was even more ferocious in gnawing at his body.

Zhang Ziyi instantly stopped the elemental change of the fire element. He switched to using the elemental lightning element.

Unfortunately, the second plan gives absolutely no relief. Even the ones the insects had mixed with electrical energy, creating a new sensation for Zhang Ziyi. His body convulsed when it could mix with the lightning energy it pierced into his body. Fused with blood that has changed color to blackish green.

"Damn it, what the fuck!"

Zhang Ziyi stopped the elemental change of lightning. Choose switching to the element of the soil element. But the same was the result, even the pain he received increased many times.

In a moment, Zhang Ziyi realized that these venomous beasts could adapt to the elemental elements he was emitting. Hence every time he made an elemental change, his pain would grow fiercer.

His body had weakened from earlier. But his consciousness is awake. Zhang Ziyi seemed to lose all of his energy. Such moments, the sense of giving up began to approach him.

"Am I going to be able to make this Mermaid Race my bawhan? Even this weak body was unable to pass the first stage examination. How will the exam be in the second stage!?" Inner Zhang Ziyi resigned.
