Although only eight Heavenly Slave trials remained, each would be harder than the last, barring any surprises. By the time all eight were complete, Chi Xue's side and the God Realm's major alliance would likely have few Quasi-Saints left. Even if Chi Xue, Po Tian, and the others fused with Quasi-Saint-level Ancient Divine Beasts, they probably still wouldn't pose any threat to Ling Tian and his companions. Their fate would be to be killed by Ling Tian and the others—a fate no one wanted to see.
That was why Po Family Seventeenth Brother and the others had proposed going out to capture Quasi-Saint-level Ancient Divine Beasts. Their people would have a better chance of surviving the Heavenly Slave trials after fusing with beasts of that level. And if Po Tian, Chi Xue, and the others fused with Quasi-Saint-level Ancient Divine Beasts sooner, their strength would increase dramatically, allowing them to strike at Ling Tian's group earlier and inflict heavier losses. Then they wouldn't have anything left to worry about.
But Po Family's Youngest Brother had rejected their proposal. They knew that, with their current strength, capturing Quasi-Saint-level Ancient Divine Beasts would be difficult. If they failed, they would alert the beasts. The Quasi-Saint-level Ancient Divine Beasts would almost certainly join the Divine Beast Alliance, which would greatly increase Ling Tian's strength. More importantly, Po Tian and the others would have no further chance to capture any Quasi-Saint-level Ancient Divine Beasts.

Furthermore, if Chi Xue's people attacked the Quasi-Saint-level Ancient Divine Beasts, Ling Tian's group might step in to stop them. In that case, capturing their targets would
