First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

Blood slowly seeped out, then turned into a spray.

Shi Gandang was nearly cleaved in half by that strike.

Li Xuanlong’s eyes widened in shock as he turned to look at Lu Ding, who was hovering in midair.

At that moment, he even doubted his own eyes. Linghai Realm?! That’s right!!!

How could someone at this level break the defense of a monster that was supposedly at the same realm as him?

And it wasn’t just any monster—it was known for its defense.

That move might not have been fatal, but calling it a serious injury would be an understatement.

Li Xuanlong had no time to think further. You can’t afford distractions in a fight.

Now that Shi Gandang’s defense was broken and he was severely wounded, this was the perfect chance to strike while he was weak and finish him off!The divine entity wielding a treasured sword swung its blade downward. The massive sword, dozens of meters long, carried an overwhelming presence that repelled all evil as it descended.

”I want you dead!!!”

Shi Gandang, despite his severe injuries, raised a hand to block Li Xuanlong’s strike. His chest was split open even further, and blood gushed out uncontrollably.

The ground beneath him shattered instantly.

He bent his legs, preparing to leap—

In that brief moment, Bai Hemen raised his hand and formed a seal.

”Seal!!!”

Darkness devoured everything, staining the surroundings black.

He pointed his sword-formed fingers backward toward Lu Ding. Darkness sealed again, and Lu Ding’s figure vanished in an instant.

The next second—

A terrifyingly powerful fist erupted from the darkness right beside Shi Gandang.

BOOM!!!!

The shockwave from the Mach ring sent their clothes billowing.

Li Xuanlong’s divine entity swung its sword again.

Bai Hemen formed another hand seal, pulling Lu Ding back into the darkness.

Shi Gandang, who had been sent flying by the punch, had yet to steady himself when he saw the giant sword coming straight down at him.

He was about to dodge when—

The disturbance within the darkness caught his attention.

”Trying to sneak attack again!?”

He raised his hand, instantly condensing a boulder the size of a truck, and hurled it into the darkness.

Missed.

Lu Ding’s figure emerged behind him.

His blade—already fully charged.

”This time, it’s over here!!”

A terrifying slash erupted again, carving a gruesome wound into Shi Gandang’s back as blood sprayed wildly.

Shi Gandang clenched a stone spike in his hand and stabbed backward at Lu Ding.

Missed again.

The divine sword, which had initially missed its strike, suddenly reversed direction—

A sweeping blow slammed into Shi Gandang’s chest, sending him flying.

At that instant—

Bai Hemen gathered corpse energy in his hands, his palms losing their color, while his pupils flickered with an eerie green light.

He pressed his hands against the ground.

”Yin Domain Overlap, Corpse Ridge Mountain!!!”

RUMBLE— The earth trembled, the landscape shifted, and towering peaks erupted from the ground.

The mountains were filled with countless hollow caverns, where eerie winds howled and screams echoed from within.

From inside the corpse caves, pairs of green-glowing eyes lit up.

The next second—

Countless figures surged out, scrambling forward—hideous, twisted, terrifying.

Looking closer, they were all—living corpses, zombies, and undead.

A swarm of corpses rushed toward Shi Gandang, biting and tearing at his flesh.

There were so many corpses that before long, a massive sphere of bodies had formed.

Bai Hemen chanted slowly, forming another seal—

”Ten Thousand Corpses Prison!!!”

High above in the sky, Lu Ding clapped his hands together in a hand seal.

DOOOOM!!

A bizarre ripple spread outward. He extended his claw, aiming at the Ten Thousand Corpses Prison.

”Serpent Devour!!!”

The ground rippled—a gigantic triangular serpent head burst forth and swallowed the entire Ten Thousand Corpses Prison in one gulp.

Scene shift.

Shi Gandang fell into a fleshy tunnel of pulsing, living tissue.

Above, below, left, right—everywhere was filled with snakes.

As he descended, countless venomous snakes of different colors lunged at him, biting and gnawing.

And that wasn’t the end of it.

One attack followed another.

A chilling voice echoed—

”Dark Death Black Coffin!!!”

Six rotting wooden slabs appeared out of nowhere, pressing in from above, below, left, right, front, and back—

Shi Gandang pushed against them with both hands!!!!

”You think... you can... kill me!!!?”

”Then let me do it myself!!!”

The surrounding illusions were torn apart by a massive divine sword, which descended with earth-shattering might, leaving behind a sword scar hundreds of meters long, carving a deep trench into the earth.

From the beginning, Lu Ding and Bai Hemen had been feinting attacks—

Their real goal was to distract and injure Shi Gandang while disrupting his focus.

The final killing move had to come from Li Xuanlong, a proper Si Ming Realm powerhouse—

A single sword strike shattered Shi Gandang’s inner Qi flow.

A thin line of blood appeared on Shi Gandang’s forehead, slowly spreading downward.

”I won’t....”

Lu Ding appeared out of nowhere, lifting his sword, Qi surging.

He steadied himself.

Another charged slash erupted from his blade—

Slicing through Shi Gandang’s neck.

His head soared into the sky.

This strike wasn’t as powerful as Lu Ding’s first charged attack, but Shi Gandang was already broken—his foundation shattered, his Qi flow disrupted.

It was like iron body martial arts—if you couldn’t channel Qi, you were nothing.

So Lu Ding’s final slash was more than enough to take Shi Gandang’s head clean off, sending him on his final journey.

[Contained Creature: Shi Gandang (False)]

[Containment Reward: Sha Suppression Rebirth Stele]

[Sha Suppression Rebirth Stele: A Qi-condensing stele with suppression power. ”With Shi Gandang here, all evil shall retreat.”]

BOSSes always drop better loot.

Feeling the mysterious sensation in his heart, Lu Ding sighed.

This Sha Suppression Stele—if specialized properly, it’s all about suppression!!!

The terrifying suppressive force—if it landed on Lu Ding himself, he wouldn’t even be able to struggle.

That’s how insane it was.

On top of that, it was ridiculously durable—immune to all magic.

It could even be used as a shield.

This is practically the Fivefold Rasengan for Cultivators of Qi—so useful, so reliable.

The only issue was... finding someone to test it on.

Beside him, Li Xuanlong looked at Lu Ding and the slightly exhausted Bai Hemen.

At this moment, he finally had the time to be truly shocked.

Two Linghai Realm cultivators had just helped him, a Si Ming Realm powerhouse, take down an enemy he couldn’t deal with.

Li Xuanlong: ?????

What the hell just happened?

And their teamwork—saying they were born from the same mother wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

Not a single wasted word, not a single unnecessary move.

It was as if they could read each other’s minds with just a blink.

Bai Hemen disrupted the monster’s vision.

That freakishly strong kid used his terrifying physical strength for feints, then landed eerie, lethal slashes on Shi Gandang.

That gave Bai Hemen time to gather Qi and unleash Yin Domain Overlap.

Once again, they restricted the monster’s movements.

And that same freakishly strong kid, with a mere lift of his hand, pulled off two perfectly executed max-level spells, restricting the monster again—twice, three times.

Finally, Li Xuanlong had only needed to step in and deliver the finishing blow.

It felt like a max-level player being hard-carried by two low-level pros with insane mechanics.

But none of that was the real kicker.

The real kicker was that final charged attack.

That terrifying slash had nearly sliced the monster in half.

A monster whose defenses even Li Xuanlong couldn’t break.

And yet, one move from Lu Ding had left it in that state.

If it weren’t for that one move, Li Xuanlong figured he would’ve been stuck in a stalemate, stalling until backup arrived.

And during that time, even though the monster kept saying it wouldn’t run, whether that was true or not—only it knew.

If it had run off and wreaked even more havoc, then—

That would’ve been so f***ed!!!

Li Xuanlong turned to look at the surrounding buildings, now collapsed under Lu Ding’s attack.

Li Xuanlong: F***!!!!

This destruction is even worse!!!!
