Chapter 792 The Three Brothers Want to Get a Government Job
Inside the battle altar, lightning flashed and thunder roared, with no sign of abating.

Meanwhile, Tiger Power and Deer Power, positioned below, shielded themselves from the intense light while keeping a close eye on the two figures inside the altar.

At this moment, both of the great immortals had a strange feeling: compared to the challenger, Cheng Tian seemed to be a superior being who was conducting a comprehensive examination of Yang Li. It was as if their identities had been completely reversed.

At the same time, this time Yang Li is more serious than in any previous battle, and has even revealed his true form to a certain extent, namely a sheep-headed human body.

Strictly speaking, the three immortals cannot unleash their full power while maintaining their human form. Their strongest form is when they manifest a hybrid of beast and human.

Incidentally, this is not the first time this gesture has been made, so the leaders and people of Chechi Kingdom are not too surprised by it.

Yang Li's expression showed that he was serious.

Moreover, the battle between the two sides has clearly moved beyond a simple exchange of spells and has incorporated close-quarters combat.

But that's what surprised Tiger Power and Deer Power even more.

Yang Li's close combat ability is the weakest among the three immortals, but with his beast body and the highest progress in the Five Thunder Technique, he is not someone that ordinary cultivators can easily contend with.

Even with such strength, she couldn't even brush against Cheng Tian's clothes.

The strangest thing is that the opponent did not rely on greater strength and speed, but on a kind of physical instinct honed by countless battles, using minimal maneuvering to dodge the most fatal attacks.

Sheep Power, completely absorbed in the battle and oblivious to everything else, was unaware of this, but Tiger Power and Deer Power had already subconsciously exchanged glances and noticed a certain emotional fluctuation in each other's eyes.

Cheng Tian's current display of physical skills was not without warning. Although he calls himself a spellcaster, he has also engaged in a lot of close combat.

While the Erlang Shen template certainly endowed him with some combat instincts he shouldn't have, this talent is rapidly merging with a trait inherent in Cheng Tian himself, manifesting in combat—

A thousand blows in an instant!
As Cheng Tian dodged Yang Li Da Xian's attack with minimal effort, his palm and the hilt of his knife struck Yang Li's most fatal spot almost simultaneously.

Throat, kidneys, eyeballs, perineum, temples, etc... but only a light touch, enough to make Yang Li feel the blow, but without actually causing harm.

In a sense, it was more like guidance, allowing Yang Li to more clearly understand what flaws were hidden in his expansive swordsmanship and what kind of attacks might endanger his life.

After all, back then, Cheng Tian received Akuma's teachings in the same way, learning the Instant Hell Kill technique through his body.

So he was also using a similar, but less intense, method to make Yangli remember his own shortcomings through his body.

After about forty rounds, Yangli Daxian, who had been kicked away by Cheng Tian, ​​staggered back a few steps, staring blankly at Cheng Tian's graceful landing. Then, amidst a sea of ​​incredulous gazes, he sheathed his sword, clasped his hands, and spoke in an almost respectful tone.

"May I ask your esteemed name...?"

At this moment, Yang Li was a little uneasy, but more than that, he was looking forward to Cheng Tian giving him a title that he would never dare to say in his dreams.

"No rush. I'll answer you after I've sparred with your two brothers."

Having roughly guessed what Yang Li was thinking, Cheng Tian revealed a mysterious smile.

He's a seasoned riddle maker.

Cheng Tian dislikes two types of people the most: those who are riddle tellers, and those who don't allow themselves to be riddle tellers.

"I have lost this round." With a knowing look on his face, the Great Immortal Yangli withdrew his power and returned to human form from his beastman form. He walked off the altar with great ease.

Lu Li and Hu Li quickly came over and eagerly pressed Yang Li for answers.

"How was it? How did it feel? What was the other person like?!"

A barrage of questions came rushing in, especially from Tiger's loud voice, which made Sheep's ears ring.

"Bros."

Faced with his brother's question, Yang Li spoke again with some difficulty, and he was even a little surprised by the hoarseness of his voice, which was beyond his expectations.

"Even if this person isn't more powerful than I imagined, he must be a formidable being. He can wield the power of high-level Five Elements magic treasures with ease, and all the times he tried to take my life, he only stopped short of killing me..."

After a pause, Yang Li could no longer hide his excitement.

"I can sense that this person is not so much testing my skills as conducting a comprehensive examination of me... If I can gain this person's approval, the three of us brothers might really have a chance to ascend to immortality!"

"Really!?" "Unbelievable!?"

Huli and Luli, who had come to a similar conclusion in the audience, were overjoyed!

When they looked up at Cheng Tian again, they saw his smiling face and his extraordinary, heroic demeanor.

In a sense, the three immortals, blinded by the bright future, could not see anything else for the time being. The audience, including the king and queen, were basically just watching the spectacle, exclaiming in amazement at the dazzling lightning, and had no idea what was actually happening.

As for the trio who had already finished their duel, their hearts, which had been in their throats, finally calmed down a little, and at the same time, a sense of enlightenment rose in their hearts.

Having witnessed Cheng Tian's ruthless treatment of the goldfish spirit and his demon subordinates, they initially assumed that Cheng Tian would indiscriminately kill any group of demons. However, after witnessing his battle with Yang Li and reviewing the original Journey to the West, they seemed to understand.

Among all the monsters in the entire Journey to the West story, the three immortals could even be classified as the most benevolent group.

It is true that monks were persecuted, but it is also true that countless people were saved by praying for rain.

If they hadn't been so competitive and gotten too caught up in unorthodox methods, even if they had just admitted their mistakes and apologized after their battle with Tang Sanzang and his disciples, they wouldn't have ended up dying.

The three immortals saw through the underlying logic of Cheng Tian's behavior, and the three bystanders also sensed something amiss.

As the team leader, Green Snake suddenly came up with an idea that sounded a bit far-fetched at first, but upon closer inspection, it seemed quite plausible—

Could it be that Cheng Tian (Cheng Tian) is trying to recruit the Three Immortals?
Just as the Green Snake had this idea, the Deer Power Immortal also stepped onto the altar with great excitement.

"I am skilled in flying sword techniques. May I ask what you desire—"

As a statement, Lu Li Da Xian directly demonstrated his strongest thief skills, with more than ten flying swords appearing out of thin air. However, before he could finish speaking, a terrifying scene entered his field of vision.

Like a soaring dragon, an countless cluster of flying swords began to move above Cheng Tian's head—

Swords sweep across mountains and rivers!
