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

Hysterical screams reached Lu Ding’s ears.

Chen Yan, who had been so defiant earlier, now only wished for death after experiencing the Earth Dragon Immortal’s hospitality.

Lu Ding wore a contemptuous smile.

His gaze traced a path to the Earth Dragon Immortal, his chin dipping with a slight tilt, signaling it to continue.

But the Earth Dragon Immortal stopped its movements.

With blood-stained sleeves, it clasped its hands toward Lu Ding.

”Grand Duke Lu, I won’t waste any more of your time.”

After speaking.

The Earth Dragon Immortal manifested its ten-thousand-meter true form that propped up the sky, looking down at Chen Yan.”Your birth came from your parents stealing my child, allowing its foundation to become nourishment for your existence. Now......”

The Earth Dragon Immortal slowed its speech.

A bad premonition rose in Chen Yan’s heart.

Then a roar echoed through heaven and earth.

The Earth Dragon Immortal roared as it dove downward.

”Give! Me! Back! My! Child!!!”

Its sharp teeth clamped onto Chen Yan’s body, tossing him into the air, while its gaping maw opened like an abyss.

Waiting to receive Chen Yan’s falling form.

Though he had originally sought death, now that the moment had truly arrived and his wish was being granted, facing imminent demise.

Fear instead flooded his heart.

Chen Yan stretched out his hand from midair, reaching toward Lu Ding’s direction.

”Aren’t you a 749 Bureau investigator? How can you just stand by and watch a demon eat a human.....”

Hearing this, Lu Ding closed his eyes.

Well, if I don’t look then it’s fine.

Chen Yan felt despair.

He left behind his final words to vent his resentment.

”You’re definitely not a 749 Bureau investigator!!!!!”

Crunch, crunch......

Only after the chewing sounds began.

Did Lu Ding open his eyes and say: ”I didn’t see anything.”

Then, his gaze fell upon the Earth Dragon Immortal.

Having returned to human form, it straightened its robes before bowing deeply to Lu Ding, remaining prostrate for a long time while speaking from the heart.

”I hope Grand Duke Lu honors our agreement. Earth Dragon Immortal seeks death!!!!!”

Unstoppable sharpness sliced through everything in its path, reaching toward the sky, tearing open the black cloud city to reveal the crimson foundation beneath.

As if heaven had opened its eyes, revealing scarlet pupils.

Retribution wasn’t absent, merely its time hadn’t come.

Now was precisely the time.

The head tilted on its shoulders, threatening to roll off.

Lu Ding stepped forward, stirring wind and clouds as he gently supported it.

With a flick of his hand.

Dark red intertwined spiritual energy transformed into flowing ribbons that drifted with the breeze, sliding past Lu Ding’s fingertips, swaying over his distinct, bony knuckles.

Because of the mountain’s aloof solitude, the wind gained form.

Following the guidance of his fingers.

The dark red ribbons wrapped around the wound on the Earth Dragon Immortal’s neck.

Everything in existence has its dual nature - the evils committed by the Earth Dragon Immortal, and the casualties it caused, became its current outcome, something Lu Ding never denied.

Wrong is wrong, right is right.

But the Earth Dragon Immortal’s obsession with avenging its child also earned Lu Ding’s recognition.

Death had arrived.

The drifting ribbons, carrying Lu Ding’s compassion, transformed into a dignified bow tied around the Earth Dragon Immortal’s neck.

Beautiful.

The dark red color resembled fresh blood, setting off two slender, jade-carved fingers that gently touched beside the bow.

Tap.

A crisp sound, like jade striking jade.

Throughout the world of the Black Prison of Death’s Body, only the sound of Lu Ding’s snapping fingers remained.

This was the final note of the curtain call.

As the surroundings transformed, Lu Ding said: ”Rest assured, I will honor our agreement and bury you deep beneath the mountains, undisturbed by anyone.”

That final move of the Way of the Jinche had not only severed the Earth Dragon Immortal’s vitality, but also cut away the spirituality of its body.

Even if someone had designs on its corpse, all they would obtain would be a handful of mud.

[Contained Monster: Earthworm Demon]

[Containment Reward: Crimson Pill Pearl]

[Crimson Pill Pearl, causes loss of soul upon illumination]

Looking at the text, thoughts flashed through Lu Ding’s mind - Crimson Pill Pearl, earthworm becoming a demon, this seems like......

Just as he thought this.

The text on his golden finger changed.

[Crimson Pill Pearl, deployed!]

[Call of the Fallen Name, deployed!]

Faint golden light shimmered as the characters danced.

A new skill slowly emerged.

[Spell: Call of the Seized Soul]

[Call of the Seized Soul: When called, the target’s spirit loosens and soul leaves body, falling from high platform]

Surprise!

This is what you call a surprise!

The earlier Call of the Fallen Name could only temporarily immobilize enemies, making them dazed.

It had some use, allowing for sneak attacks during battle to disorient enemies momentarily.

In that brief time, it was already enough for Lu Ding to slash them hundreds of times.

But Call of the Seized Soul was different.

Although it differed from Call of the Fallen Name by only one character, in the concept of soul, ”hun” represents the ethereal soul while ”po” represents the physical spirit.

Normally, the soul’s level is higher than the physical spirit’s, and the former involves ”seizing” while the latter involves ”falling” - which has higher priority is immediately clear.

In ”Investiture of the Gods,” this was Zhang Guifang’s unique skill that even Huang Feihu couldn’t withstand.

If he hadn’t encountered his natural enemy Nezha.

This person could have advanced further.

Speaking of Huang Feihu, Lu Ding thought again about the Crimson Pill Pearl dropped by the Earth Dragon Immortal.

Earthworm demon, plus Crimson Pill Pearl - this was completely Qiu Yin, the commander of Green Dragon Pass in ”Investiture of the Gods”! This person’s combat power wasn’t strong, but the Crimson Pill Pearl targeted souls, which was quite noteworthy.

In the original ”Investiture of the Gods,” Huang Feihu’s son, Huang Tianxiang, was captured and killed by this move.

Moreover, in ”Investiture of the Gods.”

Qiu Yin also suffered beatings from Nezha.

But relying on his strong vitality and tunneling ability, he endured a hit from Nezha’s Universe Ring before escaping through a tunnel, ultimately dying under the Flying Immortal Slaying Dagger.

Thinking of this, Lu Ding laughed.

”That unlucky fellow Huang Feihu......”

After speaking, he looked at his golden finger. The Crimson Pill Pearl illuminated the soul, Call of the Fallen Name targeted the physical spirit - combined, they created Call of the Seized Soul causing falls from high platforms.

Reasonable, damn reasonable.

And this skill was domineering too - if anyone dared act arrogantly in front of him again, he could directly command them to fall from their horse!!

After all, since Lu Ding arrived in the Second Circle.

He had encountered many situations where enemies made dramatic, arrogant entrances.

In such circumstances.

Call of the Seized Soul would be a god-tier skill.

Directly interrupting their arrogant displays.

Lu Ding felt satisfied.

But not completely satisfied, because he hadn’t obtained his fourth extraordinary phenomenon.

He still wanted to see if he could obtain an extraordinary phenomenon related to the venerable Spirit-Treasure Heavenly Lord.

After all, he already had Moral Heavenly Lord and Primordial Heavenly Lord.

Not completing the set made him feel uncomfortable.

The scenery of the Black Prison of Death’s Body faded around them.

Zhan Tingzhou, who had been waiting outside, approached and glanced at the already deceased Earth Dragon Immortal with the bow still tied around its neck.

Then he shifted his gaze to see the rat demon’s mutilated, horrifically dead body.

Although he didn’t know what had happened during the time Lu Ding disappeared with the rat demon, Earth Dragon Immortal, and the others.

Judging from this outcome.

The battle must have been extremely intense.
