Chapter 136: Chapter 136 Divine Level SSS Rank Difficulty Task【Fifth Update】

For the first time, Yi Zheng saw Shengsheng reveal an expression of inadequacy. You must know, this girl dared to challenge Bifang even though she knew she was no match—anyone who could make her feel distressed or even admit defeat must be incredibly formidable.

Bifang said, “It’s not that he cannot be killed, but he has a troublesome Skill. Whoever kills the Deceptive Beast will become the Deceptive Beast themselves, and they can only lie, never speak the truth. For the rest of their life, they can only be as powerless as a rabbit.”

So no one will go kill him.”

Shengsheng sighed, her face filled with helplessness despite her usually crazed demeanor.

Yi Zheng’s mind raced, wasn’t this the opportunity to survive he had been waiting for?

He immediately raised his paw and said, “If possible, I’d like to have a go at killing him!”

...

Upon hearing this, Bifang and Shengsheng were instantly energized. Looking at Yi Zheng in front of them, they thought, “Right, isn’t this guy just a rabbit?! Even if he turns into the Deceptive Beast, it seems like he’s got nothing to lose.”

However, Shengsheng then shook her head and said, “It’s useless. To kill the Deceptive Beast, being able to defeat him is just one condition, one most creatures can meet; you must also be able to hold him down. He doesn’t care how strong you are; if he senses something is wrong, he’ll hightail it out of there. That speed…”

Shengsheng heaved a long sigh.

Bifang added, “That time when he tricked the Golden Winged Great Roc into peeping on The Queen Mother of the West bathing, the Golden Winged Great Roc chased him for seven years…”

“And then?” asked Yi Zheng.

Bifang sighed and said, “He didn’t catch up.”

Pfft!

Yi Zheng nearly spat out a mouthful of blood in shock. The Golden Winged Great Roc was known as the Divine Beast with the ultimate speed, and it couldn’t catch up to a rabbit?

Shengsheng said, “Even if you can catch up to him, you still need a way to hold him down. He has an array of treasures, and his means for saving his own life are as plentiful as cow hair. Most importantly, we can’t help you. The Deceptive Beast has a power that allows him only to be killed in a one-on-one fight. If an extra person intervenes, he can’t be killed.

Think about it, a pile of top Divine Artifacts hurdling towards you, how confident are you in defeating him?”

Yi Zheng was speechless for a moment. Just one Level 1 Mythical Level Equipment was already immensely powerful, and if the opponent threw a bunch of even higher-level Mythical Level Equipment at him, the thought alone felt utterly overwhelming.

Yi Zheng’s ears drooped, “So you mean, there’s absolutely no way to deal with him?”

Although Bifang and Shengsheng were full of indignation, they also sighed resignedly, “For now, there doesn’t seem to be a good way.”

Yi Zheng, known for his fiery temper, could not tolerate this provocation—”I don’t believe it, a mere rabbit being so audacious as to walk all over me. Just you wait until I grow stronger; I’ll make sure to wallop him!”

Upon hearing these words, a glimmer of hope flashed in the eyes of Bifang and Shengsheng, even though the rabbit in front of them was currently weak.

But according to what Yi Zheng said, he had leveled up all the way from a Level 1 creature in Newbie Village; he definitely had Potential for growth. If nurtured properly, perhaps one day in the future, he might indeed be able to kill the Deceptive Beast.

At the very least, he could also give the Deceptive Beast a hard time.

Bifang said, “Yi Zheng, have you thought this through? If you really kill him, you’ll turn into a powerless Deceptive Beast. Are you sure you still want to do this?”

Yi Zheng asked, “Well, would I still be able to train back up afterwards?”

Bifang shook his head, “I don’t know. No one has truly killed the Deceptive Beast before, so everything is unknown.”

Yi Zheng stroked his chin and said, “Do you think, just maybe, this rumor is false? A story he made up?”

Bifang and Shengsheng said, “We’ve considered that, but no one dares to bet on it.”

Yi Zheng spoke with a mix of amusement and frustration, “Are Divine Beasts all this timid?”

Bifang said, “It’s not about being timid. Divine Beasts, unlike players and Wild Monsters, only have one life. Once they die, they truly die unless there are heaven-defying methods that can enable Resurrection. Also, Divine Beasts have their pride. Death isn’t what’s scary; becoming a rabbit… no one can accept that. Moreover, once you become the Deceptive Beast, you have to inherit all his karma, which is quite troublesome.”

Yi Zheng said in disbelief, “Really? To have to inherit his troubles after killing the Deceptive Beast? If everyone knows you killed the Deceptive Beast, who would trouble you?”

Bifang shook its head, “Have you forgotten? To kill a Deceptive Beast, it has to be a one-on-one duel. In a one-on-one duel, who knows who has won? After you become a Deceptive Beast, if you say you’ve won, who would believe you?”

Yi Zheng was at a loss for words…

Shengsheng provocatively said, “Do you still want to end him now? Or have you chickened out?”

Yi Zheng gave Shengsheng a look and said, “Do you think I’m like you? It was with great difficulty that I got my moment to shine, how can I swallow this insult? I must deal with him when I’m at my best!”

Bifang lifted a finger, and a red light flew in front of Yi Zheng.

“Ding! The Divine Beast Bifang has issued you a gods’ assassination quest. The quest requires you to kill the Deceptive Beast. Do you accept?”

Yi Zheng was stunned. There was actually a quest?

Bifang said, “This is not a quest I issued, but a joint quest from all Divine Beasts and Super Divine Beasts who have been tricked by the Deceptive Beast. It’s been out for a long time, but no one has accepted it.

Once you accept, you will gain the favor and protection of all Divine Beasts and Super Divine Beasts. However, we can’t directly give you equipment to boost your strength; we can only facilitate things within our capabilities.”

Yi Zheng asked, “What’s the time limit?”

Bifang said, “There is no deadline. After all, killing a Deceptive Beast is not a simple task, so everyone is giving you plenty of time.”

Shengsheng hummed from the side, “Actually, no one really expects you to kill the guy. It’s just a desperate attempt. But if you can’t handle that fellow permanently, everyone’s favor towards you will decline.”

Upon hearing this, Yi Zheng didn’t hesitate and chose to accept.

“Ding! You have accepted the quest, Divine Pursuit. Click to view details.”

Hidden Quest: Divine Pursuit

Difficulty Level: Five Stars[Divine SSS]

Quest Objective: Kill the Deceptive Beast.

Quest Duration: Indefinite

Quest Reward: ???

Abandon Quest: All Divine Beasts’ favorability resets to zero, and they will no longer trust you.

Quest Failure: All Divine Beasts’ favorability resets to zero.

Yi Zheng was somewhat confused: “The punishment for failing the quest and for abandoning it, seems pretty similar, right?”

Bifang said, “Of course, it’s different. ‘No longer trust you’ means they won’t cooperate with you in the future; it’s basically like being blacklisted. While a quest failure only resets the favorability to zero, they won’t see you as unreliable, after all, you tried. It’s understandable if you can’t succeed where all Divine Beasts have failed, so there’s still a chance for redemption.”

Yi Zheng understood, but he didn’t care about these details, because he never intended to complete the quest anyway!

Since the quest was indefinite, and since all the Divine Beasts couldn’t kill the Deceptive Beast, then it was only natural for him, a Little Rabbit, to also not manage to kill the Deceptive Beast, right? Of course, if there was a chance, he wouldn’t mind killing the Deceptive Beast, after all, how else could he pacify the world if not by settling his grievances?

Thus, it was as if he had accepted no quest at all, yet he had gained the favor and protection of all Divine Beasts for nothing. In the future, when he visited the territories of various Divine Beasts to freeload, he wouldn’t have to worry about being swatted to death.

Even in danger, he could seek refuge and scrounge a dinner or something.

This was essentially reaping benefits without giving anything in return.

However, Yi Zheng couldn’t show any of this on the surface and coughed before saying, “There’s one more issue, ha. How did that Deceptive Beast manage to change my leveling-up quest? Doesn’t the system care?”
