Chapter 2479 - 1439: Team Training (Part 2)
Lai Jianlin envisioned the future; after they ventured out of this Magical Treasure for training, not only would others envy them, but those in their family who lacked such abilities would also be envious and jealous!
It was impossible to bring them into the training, and there was no way around it. While they were in training, someone in the family would handle matters.
Family tasks would also be handled by someone.
Every time Lai Jianlin and his team returned from training, they brought back supplies and allowed family members to earn benefits through task rewards.
Having left the previous Immortal Sect, Lai Jianlin had not returned there for a long time, and other people from the Immortal Sect had also entered this Saint Sect base.
He knew some of them, but not others. They might not become brothers or a life-and-death team.
Yet, because they joined the same Saint Sect, their interests were tied together, allowing them to fight shoulder to shoulder outside.
The current Saint Sect wasn’t what it used to be. With a Deity backing them, no one dared to engage in magic combat with them!
Just showing the emblem of the Saint Sect would earn them respectful treatment, and no one dared to bully them.
No one dared to kill them and seize their emblems.
Watching the team’s battle, Lai Jianlin noticed their team’s fighting was much faster than the Luo Family Members’ battles before.
It wasn’t that their abilities were slightly higher, as the two teams had roughly equal abilities. The reason for the faster battles might be due to their observing battles before, gaining combat experience, and thus having the capability for quick battles.
...
After Lai Jianlin’s team won the battle, their team members cheered and rejoiced.
The Luo Family Members also clapped their hands.
Everyone congratulated them.
The only ones infuriated were the monkeys.
They lost two battles against humans.
They also used a Formation, and this time the humans didn’t even use Spiritual Pets, so how did they lose again?
The Monkey King saw the team lose again, and now, instead of just verbally scolding, he used a bit of force, patting the defeated monkeys on the head.
Already slightly injured during the battle, their defeat left them disheartened, and being hit by the Great King was truly heartbreaking.
The monkey being hit cried, its head dizzy and vision blurred from the King’s strikes, looking very aggrieved.
After two defeats, the Monkey King couldn’t stand it and scolded his subordinates.
They were indeed troubled; if the subordinates couldn’t win, it was embarrassing.
Furthermore, even though they were a bit stronger, they couldn’t join the battle. If they did, it would be like bullying the other side with their Great Power.
A stronger side using its strength to overpower is fundamentally an unfair battle.
If they did such a thing, not only would their master disapprove, but attempting it with thick skin would also risk getting reported.
In fact, they feared becoming a laughingstock among the Demonic Beasts of the Magical Treasure.
Winning or losing in battle is quite normal.
After all, these are mere practices, not life-and-death battles. Being injured during practice is inevitable, and winning or losing is normal. If they took action, it would be a victory without a fight.
The Monkey King thought this way, based on their association with their master.
Within this Magical Treasure, they could be kings; as long as the master summoned them, they would go out to fight.
Since the master’s power reached Deity level, he no longer needed them for tasks.
With the master’s subordinates being too fierce, the companions included far too many Divine Beasts.
The Monkey King, not considering itself a Divine Beast, was on its own path, not initially Jiang Tang’s companion but persuaded by him.
Originally being monkeys, their nature remained wild.
Wild monkeys are not easily tamed, especially those with abilities.
Only truly powerful beings could subdue them, as they could not resist a genuine strong force.
When subdued by Jiang Tang, they were certainly reluctant, being accustomed to wildness.
Being sealed did not change their wild nature.
However, under the suppression of a powerful Jiang Tang, they had to bow their heads.
Initially, seeing Jiang Tang whose ability was no better than theirs and yet being suppressed, they were reluctant, still thinking of ways to break free from control.
Later, seeing Jiang Tang’s increasingly monstrous cultivation, the Good Thief King realized that the new master was too extraordinary, possibly even more powerful than the original master.
The original master, having Become Immortal, could have obliterated its body, so would the current master, after slowly Becoming a God, also obliterate its body?
They were all looking forward to it; following a powerful master could potentially make them Demon Gods again.
Now they were merely Demon Immortals in the Mortal Realm, and even as Demon Immortals, in this Mortal World where one cannot Become Immortal, the Heavenly Dao ignored them.
In that sealed base, the Heavenly Dao Laws couldn’t reach them.
Later, after being taken into this Magical Treasure by the master, the Heavenly Dao Laws couldn’t reach them either.
If the Heavenly Dao could detect the existence of Demon Immortals, they would have been Thunderstruck long ago.
The Monkey King discussed, after two battle failures, that they still needed to train these monkeys.
Thus, one of the Monkey Kings decided, after consulting with the Human Cultivators, to temporarily cease fighting. Although temporarily not fighting, they would still practice at any time.
They also agreed to the previous conditions, as they had won two rounds, allowing them to set the terms.
They could stay in the orchard area and could eat the fruits anytime, but they couldn’t pick all the fruits.
They needed to provide these monkeys with delicious food, fine wine, and other Spirit Fruit.
These were the demands of the Monkey King.
Lai Jianlin and his companions exchanged a glance and received consent from over 100 subordinates.
They could live here; providing some gourmet food to the monkeys wasn’t impossible, considering each person brought plenty of food resources from outside.
Many had spaces for planting and breeding.
These spaces were something many didn’t originally have, only possessing Storage Bags.
However, after joining the Saint Sect, they received benefits, allowing them to earn a Space Magical Treasure as a reward for significant tasks and perfect accomplishments.
Girls and boys both liked some jewelry as Space Magical Treasures.
Such jewelry, when worn, was quite attractive.
Important items did not have to be wearable jewelry; they could have Magical Treasures recognize them as the owner, then become invisible on their body.
When the Magical Treasures became invisible, no one would try to snatch them.
At such times, they would casually wear a Storage Bag for decoration, to disguise the possession of invisible Magical Treasures containing important items in space.
Lately, they spent most of their time in the Saint Sect.
In the Saint Sect, everyone had many good resources.
Even those with high abilities didn’t think of robbing others but preferred to complete tasks here to earn them.
After all, there were Formations in the base, and if someone harmed a fellow, even for small transgressions like stealing, it would be discovered.
Luo Yaxuan also discussed with his companions and unanimously agreed that the Formation protected this place. They would not face threats either day or night.
Training was necessary.
Their experience fighting with these monkeys was already quite good.
They constantly sought more growth space as their abilities were not comparable to other teams. If more powerful, they wouldn’t fear Demons.
Regardless of whether they ever got a chance to slay a Demon.
Would there not still be other Human Cultivators?
Wouldn’t their Saint Master still be there?
Lai Jianlin and Luo Yaxuan, after discussion between the two teams, agreed to stay in the orchard.
Although they stayed in the orchard, they wouldn’t live with the monkeys.
Everyone had a Space Magical Treasure, and everyone had a flying Space Magical Treasure.
Even while living in the orchard, there was no need to build residences.
Constructing residences here wouldn’t be useful for long.
They wouldn’t waste so much time building houses.
Rather than that, in the space of the Magical Treasure, in the flying space of the Magical Treasure, they could be high in the sky, under the sun’s rays, and spend their free time cultivating, hoping to boost their strength even faster.
