Chapter 436 Battle Against the Demon Ape
The True Realm of Heavenly Evolution.
"Ouch!" (Watch out!)
As soon as Chen Beiwu appeared, Zhiling on his shoulder cried out urgently, warning of impending danger.
Golden Egg, Iron Egg, and Schiller were unfazed, and together with Chen Beiwu, they turned their heads to look at the dark figure that was slowly appearing in front of them.
It was half a zhang tall, with deep-set eyes and a face covered with tattered Buddha mask armor. The aura it exuded was like that of a god or demon, making people tremble with fear.
"So strong!"
The three golden egg heads swallowed hard.
Even though it is now a fourth-level demon king, it still felt an indescribable pressure when facing the Fighting Demon Ape.
That was the bloodline suppression, and even the rank suppression, of a fifth-order Creation Yuan Beast over a Heavenly Gang Profound Beast!
Under this pressure of power, its combat strength, which is based on its profound cultivation, will be reduced by at least a quarter.
"The stronger the better, isn't it?"
Tie Dan lowered his body slightly, looking at the Fighting Demon Ape with eager anticipation.
At this moment, even without the connection of the Covenant, it could feel the surging fighting spirit in Bei Wu's heart.
Indeed, as a combatant, the stronger the Fighting Demon Ape, the better, so as not to waste its innate talent and bloodline.
If it could, it would like to help its master subdue this demonic ape and help its master open the broad road to becoming a true Nascent Soul cultivator!
"Hey." (Long time no see)
Schiller reached out to greet her, then patted Zhiling on the head to indicate that everything was alright and that the demonic ape was not an enemy.
Completely forgetting its dark history of almost wetting itself in fear when it first saw the Fighting Demon Ape.
"You've become stronger!"
The Fighting Demon Ape's tone was now tinged with excitement, no longer as calm as before.
Its decision back then was not wrong, but decades have passed and that Foundation Establishment prodigy has grown into a Nascent Soul True Monarch.
Late Nascent Soul stage? No, that's not right, it's early Nascent Soul stage True Monarch!
The Fighting Demon Ape's senses stirred, and the corners of its mouth turned up slightly.
good good!
The threat perception posed by a mere early-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch was comparable to that of a late-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch, only slightly weaker.
If Chen Beiwu successfully reaches the Nascent Soul stage in the future, he may be able to taste defeat, thereby breaking free from the shackles of his bloodline and proving himself to become a fifth-order Demon Lord.
At the moment when the Fighting Demon Ape was filled with fighting spirit, Chen Beiwu also felt a sense of emotion.
As expected of the Fighting Demon Ape, born of nature and born of calamity, wielding the dual authority of "fighting destruction" and "sealing the power of calamity".
No matter how much his cultivation level increased, every time he saw the Fighting Demon Ape, he felt a spiritual warning, like a firefly gazing at the sun.
This means that even if he now attains the status of a True Monarch, he is still no match for the Fighting Demon Ape.
"I wonder how much of my strength I can get the Fighting Demon Ape to show right now?" Chen Beiwu thought to himself.
To be honest, the Fighting Demon Ape is a powerful beast ranked third on the Creation Beast Ranking, and it is also a rare beast that even the most powerful cultivators in the Immortal Alliance would covet.
If he has the opportunity to subdue and contract the Fighting Demon Ape, in the future, not to mention attaining the Dao and becoming a Divine Transformation Realm expert, it may not be difficult for him to even cross realms and contend with a True Divine Transformation Realm expert.
However, the Fighting Demon Ape clan has always been known for its fighting spirit and its refusal to submit. Even a powerful cultivator might not be able to subdue them, let alone Chen Beiwu in his current state.
"interesting!"
The Fighting Demon Ape sensed something and saw through Chen Beiwu's thoughts.
But unlike the covetous greed that other cultivators saw, Chen Beiwu saw more admiration and appreciation in his eyes.
But that alone is not enough to make it treat Chen Beiwu differently.
The only thing that truly concerned the Fighting Demon Ape was Chen Beiwu's potential and whether he could give it a good fight in the future.
"fight?"
The Fighting Demon Ape extended an invitation directly.
"Can."
Chen Beiwu readily agreed.
"Very good, but don't hold back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Fighting Demon Ape took a step forward, and the ground beneath its feet immediately exploded, raising a vast cloud of dust.
"So fast!"
Chen Beiwu's pupils contracted slightly, and in an instant, the figure of the Fighting Demon Ape appeared in front of him.
"roar!
'
Not to be outdone, the golden egg activated the Three-Phase Indestructible Profound Power, raising its dragon claw to meet the Fighting Demon Ape's fist head-on.
"boom!!!"
After a brief stalemate, the golden egg's internal skeleton emitted a slight tremor, and its massive dragon body retreated uncontrollably.
The Fighting Demon Ape, still holding the upper hand, changed its fist into a finger and pointed at Chen Beiwu again.
This finger gesture seemed ordinary, but in Chen Beiwu's perception, it carried a terrifying power to crush everything.
hum!
With a flicker of light from his spiritual mirror, suppressing his distracting thoughts, Chen Beiwu formed a hand seal, and a seemingly illusory yet real Qinghua Myriad Spirit Barrier immediately appeared before him.
"Eek!"
At this moment, Schiller, whose mind was connected to Chen Beiwu, reacted.
It clasped its hands together, and the immense Five Elements Qi within its body gathered together, unleashing its ever-changing profound abilities to help conceal its aura.
"Woof!"
Iron Egg was engulfed in crimson flames, which transformed into countless strands of flaming embers that intertwined into a net and attacked the Fighting Demon Ape.
The Fighting Demon Ape remained motionless, neither dodging nor avoiding, ignoring the oncoming Flame Annihilation.
One finger!
Just one finger!
The Qinghua Myriad Spirits Barrier, capable of withstanding a blow from a late-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch, crumbled instantly, as fragile as paper.
Upon seeing this, Chen Beiwu's eyes flashed with surprise.
Is this the Fighting Demon Ape without suppressing its cultivation level?
Without activating his bloodline profundity or circulating his true magical power, he could crush everything with overwhelming force simply by relying on his innate, powerful physical body.
"puff!"
Before he could use his profound powers to deal with the attack, the demonic ape's finger struck down, piercing Chen Beiwu's forehead and leaving a bloody hole.
The Fighting Demon Ape remained expressionless, but with a flick of its eyes, it saw Chen Beiwu suddenly launching a surprise attack from behind, while Chen Beiwu in front of it transformed into a Five Qi Puppet and slowly dissipated.
break!"
Chen Beiwu roared, unleashing the full power of his Primordial True Essence, and unleashed the Cave True Tribulation Finger, striking the back of the Fighting Demon Ape with its strongest point.
In an instant, the Demon-Sealing Chains trembled, emitting a metallic wail, and even the fur on the Fighting Demon Ape's body exploded.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
One finger! Two fingers! Three fingers!
Seizing the opportunity, Chen Beiwu instantly flicked out six fingers.
With each strike of his True Heavenly Finger, pure Primordial Qi would blast into his opponent's body, frantically amplifying its profound power, causing the Fighting Demon Ape to retreat step by step, while visible shockwaves would erupt from the demon ape's back.
As a result, Chen Beiwu's body trembled, his chest caved in slightly, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
How do you feel?
The unharmed Fighting Demon Ape stopped in its tracks, stood still, and looked up at Chen Beiwu.
"Your battle-hardened body is truly troublesome!"
Chen Beiwu reached out and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
The power of the Heavenly Finger of the Cave Truth is so strong that even a late-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch who swallows all six of its fingers will perish.
But when it landed on the Fighting Demon Ape, he felt as if he were shaking an insurmountable mountain.
The mountain was unaffected in the slightest. On the contrary, Chen Beiwu almost seriously injured himself with the Six True Heavenly Finger Techniques due to the connection of their energies.
"Hey!"
At the critical moment, Schiller grabbed Chen Beiwu and used his escape technique to retreat and create distance, while simultaneously using the Five Transformations technique to heal him.
"Since you're so troublesome, I won't use the Qi Linking Technique anymore. Let me see that move you used last time!"
The Fighting Demon Ape moved its head, a surge of fighting spirit rising within it.
This time, it didn't suppress its cultivation level; it just wanted to experience the long-lost thrill.
Unfortunately, it did not suppress its own cultivation level, so Chen Beiwu could not even break through the defenses of the Battle Demon Body.
"Can!"
Chen Beiwu nodded slightly, reached his right hand behind him, and the golden egg instantly transformed into a golden ray of light and fell into his palm.
"tread!"
Chen Beiwu took the first step, and the golden light in his hand spread inch by inch, forming a three-pointed double-edged sword with domineering energy.
Taking the second step, Tie Dan leaped high into the air, transforming into a wisp of purple energy that landed on Chen Beiwu's forehead, forming a mysterious pattern. The pattern then opened, revealing a powerful vertical eye.
Taking the third step, Xue Le stretched out his arms and hugged Chen Beiwu. A radiant light flowed around him, and an incomparably magnificent Five Qi gilded armor quietly appeared, enveloping him, making him look like a tyrant in the world.
In an instant, Chen Beiwu entered the state of the Myriad Spirits Tribulation Transformation. His divine sense, magical power, physical body, and cultivation level surged dramatically, comparable to a late-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch.
Is that enough?
In this state, Chen Beiwu felt that the magical power within his body was as vast as the sea, flowing endlessly, and he could even try to suppress and kill a Nascent Soul stage True Monarch.
"Not bad, but still a bit lacking."
The Fighting Demon Ape's eyes lit up, and it strode towards Chen Beiwu.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
With each step it took, the Fighting Demon Ape's aura multiplied, like a demon ape freed from its cage, unleashing a savage and ferocious power that shook the entire world, completely suppressing Chen Beiwu.
This oppressive aura! Sure enough, my guess was right; this Fighting Demon Ape is only one step away from becoming a Fifth Realm Demon Lord!
Before Chen Beiwu even made a move, the mere clash between their energies caused his golden core and nascent soul to tremble slightly.
Can't drag it any longer!
If this drags on any longer, the overwhelming power of the Fighting Demon Ape will cause the Myriad Spirits Calamity Transformation to become completely ineffective.
Thinking of this, Chen Beiwu's figure flashed and appeared above the Fighting Demon Ape, his three-pointed double-edged sword aimed at the demon ape's neck and slashed heavily.
"Clang clang clang clang—!" The blades flashed and clashed wildly.
Every strike Chen Beiwu unleashed contained the immense power of Primordial True Essence, enough to suppress and kill a mid-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch.
In addition, each time the blade flashes, the Golden Egg Profound Realm's [Great Evolution True Realm] will also erupt, attempting to break through the Fighting Demon Ape's defenses from both the mind and the body.
"Good, have you had enough?"
The Fighting Demon Ape remained calm, allowing Chen Beiwu to launch his attack. It even watched as the three-pointed double-edged sword pierced its pupils without dodging.
"Clang!"
As the knife pierced the demonic ape's eye, Chen Beiwu felt no pain whatsoever. Instead, a strong shockwave struck, tearing the tiger's mouth that gripped the three-pointed double-edged sword, causing drops of blood to fall.
"Don't hold back, you can definitely get even stronger!"
The Fighting Demon Ape was somewhat dissatisfied.
Its intuition told it that Chen Beiwu still had some tricks up his sleeve.
"Forget it, I'm not fighting anymore. I'm no match for you!"
Chen Beiwu exhaled a breath of turbid air, and with a thought, the three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand, the vertical eye on his forehead, and the armor on his body instantly disappeared, revealing the figures of Golden Egg, Iron Egg, and Schiller.
"Why did you stop fighting?"
The Fighting Demon Ape was somewhat dissatisfied.
While combat techniques that suppress one's cultivation level are effective, they are only good for passing the time.
It prefers to fight head-on with strong opponents rather than suppress its cultivation level.
The warm-up sparring had just given it a chance to slowly build up its fighting spirit.
"Because we can't beat them," Chen Beiwu said frankly.
What is the trump card?
Unknown to outsiders, this is a secret technique that can turn the tide of battle when unleashed at crucial moments.
It was just a friendly spar. Knowing he was no match for Chen Beiwu, he wouldn't rashly use his trump card in a sparring match, as doing so would only expose his secrets.
The reason he agreed to the sparring was not to win, but to get closer to the Fighting Demon Ape, find out the approximate level of his own strength, and then find an opportunity to inquire about the Taixu Array Sect.
"How boring."
The Fighting Demon Ape glanced at Chen Beiwu, but did not continue to attack.
In its eyes, Chen Beiwu was a rare gem, always capable of bringing surprises.
It can endure thousands of years of solitude, and naturally it can patiently wait for Chen Beiwu's strength to increase and for him to become a Nascent Soul Perfected True Monarch.
"There's nothing I can do. I'm just a Nascent Soul stage True Monarch, I can't beat you at all."
Chen Beiwu shrugged and said helplessly to the Fighting Demon Ape, "Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. If you're willing to give up the inheritance within the Heavenly Evolution True Realm, my cultivation progress as a Nascent Soul True Monarch might be able to increase a bit."
"roar."
Golden Egg shook his head, indicating that the Fighting Demon Ape had no chance of producing the inheritance.
Because the Fighting Demon Ape feared its master would surpass it.
"I'm scared?"
Upon hearing this, the Fighting Demon Ape smiled calmly: "It's just some inheritance. If you want it, then I'll give it to you."
It hadn't given him the inheritance before because it was afraid that Chen Beiwu would take the bait and run away, never to enter the Heavenly Evolution True Realm again, thus losing some of the fun in passing the time.
But now that Chen Beiwu has shown enough talent, qualifications and potential, it naturally doesn't mind taking action itself, and even using some resources to cultivate a good opponent for itself.
Golden Egg and Schiller exchanged a glance, surprised that this provocation was so effective.
"Thank you, senior."
Chen Beiwu's eyes brightened slightly, and he quickly bowed.
He also lacks some resources for holding a universe sermon, which he may be able to gather through this opportunity.
Furthermore, if he can thoroughly study the advanced formations of the Taixu Formation Sect, he will be safer when venturing into the ruins of the Taixu Formation Sect in the future.
"No need for thanks. I only have one request." The Fighting Demon Ape glanced at Chen Beiwu: "Every hundred years, you must spar with me once. If you need to go into seclusion to break through to a higher level, you can postpone the sparring session."
"No problem," Chen Beiwu readily agreed.
"Come with me."
The Fighting Demon Ape took a step forward and disappeared with Chen Beiwu.
The True Realm of Heaven's Evolution, the Inheritance Stone Tablet.
Through the spatial rift, Chen Beiwu could vaguely see the rare treasures floating and moving within the stone tablet space, among which was the [Celestial Evolution Star Chart], which he valued most.
Fourth-grade supreme array treasures are extremely rare, even within the Immortal Alliance they are extraordinary treasures, and even Zhiling's dowry did not contain such rare items.
Moreover, according to Chen Beiwu's speculation, the Heavenly Evolution True Lord's natal treasure, the Heavenly Evolution Star Chart, possesses extraordinary energy and may be of extremely high grade, possibly a heaven-reaching treasure passed down from the Taixu Array Sect.
Following Chen Beiwu's gaze, the Fighting Demon Ape extended a finger and gently poked at him.
"Boom!"
The spatial rift slowly disappeared, replaced by a gradually stabilizing space around the stone tablet.
"Take whatever you want, it doesn't matter if you take it all," the Fighting Demon Ape said casually.
