Chapter 129: The Confused Demon-Catching Competition in the Immortal Realm
Liu Yu and his companions' days in the Immortal Realm were always filled with novelty and surprises. One day, they heard that the Immortal Realm was going to hold a unique demon-catching competition, and they immediately became interested and decided to go and watch it together.
The competition venue was packed with people and incredibly lively. Liu Yu and his companions finally managed to squeeze to the front row, where they saw a magnificently dressed immortal standing on a high platform, loudly announcing the competition rules: "Fellow immortals, in today's demon-catching competition, whoever catches the most and most powerful demons will be the champion!"
The competition began, and the first to step into the arena was an immortal named Qingfeng. He confidently entered the arena, holding a gleaming sword. A moment later, a little monster appeared. This little monster looked like a fluffy ball, round and chubby, with a pair of wings. Immortal Qingfeng swung his sword and shouted, "Monster, take this!" But the little monster was very clever, dodging left and right, and Immortal Qingfeng couldn't hit it no matter what he did. Finally, Immortal Qingfeng was panting heavily, while the little monster urinated on his head and then flew away. Liu Yu laughed so hard he almost fell over: "This immortal is too stupid! He can't even catch a little fluffy ball!"
Next up was Fairy Mingyue. She gracefully waved her colorful ribbon, trying to trap a monster that looked like a rabbit. But the rabbit monster was incredibly fast, constantly turning back to make faces. Fairy Mingyue stamped her feet in frustration, accidentally stepping on her own ribbon and tripping. The rabbit monster seized the opportunity to escape, and the audience roared with laughter. Xu Xian couldn't help but laugh too: "This fairy usually seems so elegant, but she panicked when it came to catching the monster."
Just then, a sage named Mighty appeared. He was burly and incredibly strong, thinking he could easily capture the monster, but he encountered one that could turn invisible. Mighty pounced left and right, grabbing at everything in sight, and finally crashed into a tree, knocking it down. Liu Yu laughed until tears streamed down his face: "This Mighty Immortal has all that strength, but nowhere to use it!"
Xiaoqing remarked from the side, "These immortals usually look so powerful, but why are they all so disheveled when they're catching demons?"
The competition continued, and a fairy named Linglong stepped onto the stage. She took out an exquisite bell, intending to use its sound to attract the monster. Unexpectedly, the bell, instead of attracting the monster, summoned all the bees around her, buzzing incessantly. Linglong, terrified, screamed and ran off the stage. Liu Yu laughed so hard she couldn't stand up straight: "This fairy's bell has turned into a bee-attracting bell!"
Bai Suzhen couldn't help but smile as she watched these scenes unfold.
At this moment, a hermit named Xuan Kong appeared. He claimed to be proficient in magic and able to easily subdue monsters. He chanted incantations and cast a spell, but the spell went out of control, trapping him inside a giant bubble. He struggled inside, and the audience laughed until their stomachs hurt. Liu Yu shouted, "This magic isn't for catching monsters, it's for catching yourself!"
As the competition neared its end, an immortal named Feiyu entered the arena. He spotted a monkey-like monster and gave chase. The mischievous monkey monster climbed a tree, and Feiyu followed. However, the branch couldn't support his weight and broke, causing Feiyu to fall and land in a mud puddle, turning into a muddy figure. Liu Yu laughed so hard he rolled on the ground: "That immortal is incredibly unlucky!"
In the end, none of the immortals succeeded in catching the monster, and the monster-catching competition turned into a farce.
Liu Yu and his group left the arena and continued their travels in the Immortal Realm.
They came to a garden where the flowers could talk. Liu Yu curiously approached a flower and asked, "Hello, flower." The flower replied, "Stay away from me, you smell of sweat!" Liu Yu scratched his head awkwardly.
They then saw a deity practicing calligraphy. Liu Yu went over and said, "This calligraphy is just so-so." The deity angrily replied, "If you're so good, you write it!" Liu Yu picked up the brush and wrote a few crooked characters. The deity laughed so hard he couldn't straighten up: "Your calligraphy is even worse than mine!"
As they walked, they came across a stall selling fairy fruits. Liu Yu picked up a fairy fruit and asked the stall owner, "Is this fruit sweet?" The stall owner said, "Very sweet, or you don't have to pay." Liu Yu took a bite, but it was so sour that his face scrunched up. He angrily said, "This is what you call sweet? You're lying!" The stall owner smiled and said, "Everyone's taste is different."
Just then, a crane flew overhead. Liu Yu tried to ride it, but the crane objected and scratched him with its claw. Liu Yu cried out in pain, "Ouch! Why are you so fierce, crane!"
Xu Xian and Xiao Qing laughed uncontrollably.
In the evening, they found a place to rest.
That night, Liu Yu lay in bed, reminiscing about the day's amusing events, and drifted off to sleep. In his dream, he participated in a demon-catching competition, only to be chased all over the world by monsters…
