Help me find errors/mistakes, thanks!
Chapter of the day, enjoy!
Lots of you guys think it'll be a secret skill, while a few think it's in the headmaster head. Anyways, i'll probably give you guys 3-5 chapters after Thanksgiving. Speaking of chapters, we are like halfway through this arc so should end around chapter 50-60ish.
Soaring Dragon Continent, Black Tortoise Forest
Gan Fang glanced into the distance, “Wonder what’s going on over there?”
Qiu Zhen shrugged his shoulders, to him some inner disciples more than likely met a demon beast that they couldn’t beat. If Gan Fang wanted to go over there and check it out, he would be going by himself. You would have to be stupid to extremely nice in order to go over there and help them out. When Qiu Zhen thought about Gan Fang’s characteristics, he suddenly frowned.
“Let’s go!” Gan Fang eagerly said.
Both Qiu Zhen and Li Haun just stared at him, without uttering a word. Gan Fang slightly frowned, he couldn’t believe that both of these two didn’t feel like helping the fellow disciples. Gan Fang believes that if you have the strength to help those in need, then you should stand up and help. However you shall never help those who have wronged you, or deserve their punishment.
“You… guys don’t want to go?”
“No. Why should we help them?”
Gan Fang sighed, “Qiu Zhen how can you think that way? Wouldn’t you want someone to help you if you were them?”
“No. Because i’m not stupid enough to get caught.”
“Li Haun help me out here…”
“...”
“Fine, i’ll be back.”
Gan Fang’s figure disappeared heading straight towards the screaming, he really wanted to know what was going on. Was he worried about the other inner disciple, or was he aiming to find out exactly what happened.
Li Huan pouted her lips, “He’s looking to get killed, like he can fight a middle stage Mystic realm demon beast.”
Qiu Zhen’s eye’s widened, he couldn’t believe what he just heard. Li Haun could sense the cultivation of a demon beast from where they were standing, but she could also sense how strong it was. Usually no one would be able to figure out the cultivation of another if their cultivation was four levels above their own, however she was able to.

“What! How ca… no, let’s go.”
“Eh, you want to go there too…?”
Qiu Zhen didn’t answer her, he grabbed her by the collar and dashed towards where Gan Fang left. ‘A middle stage Mystic realm demon beast! Such luck!’
------------
Gan Fang was speeding through the forest as fast as he could, however as he ran through some other demon beast followed him. He didn’t stop to take care of them, instead he continued forward. The demon beast that followed him were of lower cultivation than him, so he wasn’t even bothered by them.
It took the time for a incense to burn for him to arrive at the location of the screams. In front of his eye’s was a group of inner disciples, each one was running a different direction. Five bodies were lying on the ground, they were dead. A giant ape that stood four meters tall, with pitch black hair and white eyes was beating his chest. The ape had a long wound running down it’s right arm, but that didn’t stop the power it held.
“Demon Ape King!” Gan Fang’s body tensed up, this was a beast whose cultivation surpassed his own. He couldn’t help himself let alone the other disciples, if this beast touched him his body would be utterly destroyed.
“Fuck! I told you it wasn’t worth it, but you just had to do it!”
“Yeah, blame me! You wanted that treasure too!”
“If I did I wouldn’t be stupid enough to wake that damn thing up!”
Two male disciples were arguing in this situation, however unlike the rest of the inner disciples these two took out their weapons. They released all the profound energy they had, and their killing intent shot up.
“Hmph! Damn ape should learn your place!”
He had a light blue long sword in his hands while he dashed at the ape and attacked. “Four Devil Slash!” He first attacked the ape on it’s leg, then his figure flashed he attacked the apes arm this time. In total he attacked the ape four times, with each strike being more powerful than the last. However, it was useless, they didn’t even scratch the ape.

“Haha, is this all you’re capable of! Let this daddy handle it!”
Wielding a black spear in his hands, the man put all his qi inside of it. “First God Eruption!” Pew! The black spear was surrounded in pure white qi, while it shot out of his hands in less than one breath. The black spear landed on the ape’s chest. Ding! Like a needle trying to pierce through steel, it bounced off.
The Demon Ape King roared, while stomping its feet. The two disciples who were trying to fight the beast a moment ago, felt like fleeing. However it was too late, the ape king stomped its feet onto the ground causing it to crack in the direction of those two. They tried to dodge, but suddenly flames erupted out of the cracks.
Booom!
“Even those two couldn’t do anything against it, run!”
Gan Fang knew that those two would die, fighting a beast that had a cultivation at the Mystical realm while those two were only at the eight Dao realm was like fighting a tiger while you’re only a baby. The fleeing disciples weren’t fast enough to escape the Demon Ape King, it grabbed a tree straight out of the ground and threw it at them.
Out of the corner of his eye, Gan Fang realized that there was someone he just met. She was in the same group as the others, and if he did nothing she would die. ‘Qiu Zhen seems to care about her... ‘
The female who he had seen was none other than Hu Jun, the female disciple he met earlier. Knowing that she had some connection to Qiu Zhen, Gan Fang felt like saving her from all of this, but it would put him in danger as well.
----------
Qiu Zhen just arrived with Li Haun, however there were tons of bodies around. Footprints that were 2 meters wide could be seen, and the stench of blood was strong. When he arrived, the ape king was doing battle with two people, however he could only make out one.
Boom! Bang! Ding!
“Brother Qiu Zhen!”
Qiu Zhen turned his attention towards the person that called his name, it just so happened to be Hu Jun. Her clothes had holes in it revealing her skin, while her hear was all over the place. He didn’t pay her too much attention before turning his attention back towards the fight. “Who is that fighting with Gan Fang?”
Hu Jun felt a little sting in her heart, Qiu Zhen didn’t even ask if she was alright but instead put his attention on the fight. It seemed he cared for Gan Fang more than he did her, however she didn’t say anything. “That’s brother Gin Ja. He just so happened to arrive the same time as Gan Fang.”
Qiu Zhen couldn’t help but ask, “Who provoked that beast?”
“Ah, two arrogant disciples, they are dead now. They were arguing over the treasure that was behind the Demon Ape King, saying that the Black Tortoise left it there for them to find. Seeing that the Ape King was wounded, they thought they could handle it, but ended up dying in one hit.”
Qiu Zhen looked behind the Demon Ape King’s back, indeed there was something shining on the ground. However he believed it definitely wasn’t a treasure, it was probably some kind of glass that showed the reflection of the sun.
“We should go get an elder, there's no way they can fight that Demon Ape King together.”
“Maybe, not with two, but maybe with three!” Qiu Zhen’s dashed towards the fight with the Ape King.
Li Haun who was silent all this time finally spoke, “Hpmh! Now he’s going to die.”

Beast
A threat to the galaxy has come from another, and the Union of intelligent life will go to any length to stop it. Military Quarantine has held for hundreds of thousands of cycles. Traders, merchants, colonists, and Pirates live risky lives along the fringes as the politics from the inner systems fail to see the larger threats beyond their borders. A lone human finds himself far from home with no memories to how he arrived. A failing Trade vessel plays on a desperate gamble, while a malicious parasite searches for a suitable host. ............................................. Author's note: Beast is a story that I wrote a long, long time ago. Some of you might have read it then, back when it was posted on reddit over at r/HFY. It was my first webfiction and made in the spirit of that subreddit's "genre" of humanity being awesome. But, it is also a story that has bothered me a little bit. Just like most new writers tend to do, I made mistakes and errors that feel painful to reread. A Space Opera will be a Space Opera, but I had prose that makes present-me cringe. Still, at the same time, the story is still very much a tale I've never given up on. It was my first adventure into fiction: Beast was a crazy adventure with bodysnatching aliens, galactic war, threats from across the universe... Posting this story here is a way to try and redeem myself a bit. I won't call it a complete rewrite, because it's not, but I have wanted to go through and correct some of the major issues Beast has for a long time and put it somewhere more accessible to read (instead of as posts/comments on reddit) and I figure that now is as good a time as any. Additional corrections you might notice are welcome.
