Chapter 621 Battle Demon State
It was indeed a bit of a stretch to rely solely on Aji's intervention.
Chen Beiwu's eyes flickered slightly as he sensed a rising fighting spirit.
Not only him, but Aji, who stood between heaven and earth, also sharpened his gaze and keenly noticed the changes in the Fighting Demon Ape.
boom!
boom!
boom!
The earth trembled, and Lingji cried out in despair.
As the Fighting Demon Ape slowly raised its head and fixed its gaze on Aji, a golden light flashed and spread, causing the huge blood hole in its chest to quickly shrink and solidify, as if it had not suffered any damage.
That would have been fine, but what truly astonished Aji was that even though it had used its profound powers to annihilate almost all of the Fighting Demon Ape's true magic power, the latter's true magic power still surged forth from nowhere as its fighting spirit rose, endlessly.
It is no exaggeration to say that this bizarre situation has shattered the common sense of spiritual conservation in the cultivation world!
In addition, the aura that the Fighting Demon Ape is now unleashing is several times greater than before.
This Battle Demon Body is simply unreasonable; it can even further enhance its physical power by getting injured!
Aji's heart sank. He took the initiative and activated the Autumn Killing Yin Wind Profound Power, wanting to test the upper limit of the Fighting Demon Ape's recovery ability and then defeat it in one fell swoop.
The reason is simple: the longer the battle drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for it.
But the Fighting Demon Ape was even faster. It simply extended a finger and aimed it at Aji. A towering black beam of light burst forth instantly, breaking through the Radiant Sun Ring surrounding Aji with lightning speed.
The terrifying power, enough to crush a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator, immediately pierced through the neck and flesh of the Yin-Yang Heavenly Order True Dragon, splashing out a large amount of dragon blood.
Aji was in excruciating pain and instinctively roared in anger, using the power of spring sunshine to recover.
This killing move, which combines the power of the four elements of earth, fire, wind, and water, is powerful enough to shatter the physical defense of the Creation Beast in one go. However, Aji is confident that he can use the Four Seasons Mystic Arts to forcibly recover and ensure that his own combat power is not affected.
"Buzz!"
Aji's pupils contracted as he discovered that his invincible power of the four seasons was losing its effectiveness under the erosion of the dark light.
"What is this thing?" Aji was startled.
Logically speaking, even when facing a Fifth Realm Demon Lord, the Yin-Yang power of the four seasons contained within its bloodline should not be suppressed to such an extent.
But what shocked it even more was that, in addition to being injured, the Fighting Demon Ape could further enhance its demonic power by unleashing its bloodline mystical attacks.
This also means that unless a powerful individual can kill the Fighting Demon Ape with a single blow, the opponent will be facing a monster that can continuously stack Fighting Stances through combat.
If there were a limit to how many of these fighting stances could be stacked, that would be fine.
If not, Aji even suspected that the Fighting Demon Ape could obtain terrifying power that would make even a Fifth Realm Demon Venerable retreat by continuously stacking fighting stances at the ultimate Demon King realm through protracted battles.
The Fighting Demon Ape is ranked on the Creation Beast List, surpassing the two true dragons, Qianyang and Kunyin. Its fighting stance likely has no upper limit, especially against beings of the same realm.
As soon as the thought crossed Aji's mind, he immediately activated Xuan Tong to create distance and chose to continue probing.
It's only now that I've realized it; it seems Aji didn't inherit much of his past life's fighting prowess.
Chen Beiwu, who was watching from the sidelines, was slightly moved.
The Fighting Demon Ape wields two great powers: the Fighting Annihilation and the Calamity Sealing.
The former uses battle to break all laws and to destroy all the heavens. No matter what kind of magic or profound power the opponent uses, it can suppress them with battle, and is invincible, destroying everything.
The latter, however, used his own body as a bulwark, transferring the power of heaven and earth to sustain himself through war.
Every time the Fighting Demon Ape attacks or suffers a severe blow, it can draw power into its body, allowing its demonic form to undergo a round of tempering, adding a layer of fighting stance, making it stronger with each battle, and its supernatural powers will naturally develop.
These two powers, one external and one internal, complement each other, thus creating the incredible and almost flawless creation that is the Fighting Demon Ape.
"Huh?" (Does that mean Aji is doomed to lose?)
Sensing Chen Beiwu's thoughts, Jin Dan couldn't help but inquire with his divine sense.
"That's not necessarily true. There is no such thing as an absolutely invincible authority in this world." Chen Beiwu shook his head.
If Aji can cultivate the Four Seasons Life and Death Scripture to its ultimate level and give birth to the Four Seasons Heavenly Wheel, he might not be unable to defeat even the Fighting Demon Ape in a one-on-one battle.
But there are no "what ifs" in this world.
Without his help, Aji's chances of defeating the Fighting Demon Ape on his own are undoubtedly slim.
"Huh?" (So, Aji will still lose?)
Schiller blinked, his face innocent and naive.
"Man proposes, God disposes; until the very end, who knows what the outcome will be?" Chen Beiwu smiled calmly.
As a contracted cultivator, he naturally hoped that Aji could win and inflict a defeat on the Fighting Demon Ape.
On the other side, as the battle dragged on, Aji's energy gradually decreased, while the pressure emanating from the Fighting Demon Ape grew increasingly overwhelming.
After hundreds of rounds of fighting, the Fighting Demon Ape seized an opportunity to get close, clenched its five fingers, grabbed Ajilong's tail, and then forcefully snatched the latter's huge dragon body into the air.
Like whipping noodles, the Fighting Demon Ape used Aji as a whip, swinging it left and right.
boom!
boom!
boom!
Each time Aji crashed to the ground, a precipitous mountain peak was leveled by the dragon's massive body, stirring up a sandstorm and dust storm.
"It's still not quite there."
The demonic ape's roar was like thunder, echoing throughout the heavens and earth.
Don't underestimate me!
Aji roared, disregarding his injuries and shed dragon scales, his massive dragon body rapidly shrank, and the Yin-Yang True Power of the Four Seasons erupted within him, forcibly breaking free from the shackles of the Fighting Demon Ape.
The demonic ape was struck as if by a heavy blow, staggering backward, its hands revealing hideous wounds, which were then completely healed in the blink of an eye.
No, that's not right, it's become increasingly powerful!
"Are we going to use that move?"
Chen Beiwu's eyes flickered as he looked at Aji, sensing something in his heart.
As expected, Aji stared intently at the Fighting Demon Ape, and without hesitation, unleashed his trump card, determined to settle the score with the Fighting Demon Ape.
Cosmic Wheel!!!
As the earth-shattering dragon roar resounded, the sky, composed of countless dark gold chains, suddenly dimmed, as if covered with a layer of silver light.
"Snap, snap!"
Deep within Aji's pupils, the seed of divine power condensed with the Dao of Time cracked slightly, radiating ultimate brilliance, and then completely engulfed the dragon's body, forming a time vortex that blotted out the sun.
In the fifty years that Chen Beiwu studied the Huncheng Stele, he also made progress, condensing the cosmic light and Daoist rhyme gathered in his body into a supreme and profound understanding.
Sensing the terrifying nature of this strange phenomenon, the Fighting Demon Ape paused, its body trembled slightly, and its eyes grew increasingly excited.
In the next instant, the vortex of time shattered, and countless dense silver-gray dragon scales flew out, as if they had swept up the light and time of the world into it, and then exploded with a bang, as if the universe had just been separated and the two polarities had just been divided, revealing a true dragon of time that made the world pale in comparison.
Its scales are like the sun's heat, its horns like the stars in the sky, and its whiskers like the Milky Way. When its eyes open and close, the sundial-like patterns on its scales reflect in all directions, and behind it, a halo of light appears that is indescribable.
This strange phenomenon carries the weight of the four seasons and the years, turning silently, yet it can influence the order of time in all directions, causing Aji to be enveloped in the flames of time, his appearance to change drastically, and his aura to increase exponentially, even suppressing the Fighting Demon Ape.
【Mysterious Connection】: Cosmic Wheel 【Attribute】: Yin and Yang (Four Seasons)
[Rank]: ? ? ?
[Introduction]: Tianhuang Shixu comprehends the profound mystery in the Dao of the Universe, which can manifest the Time Wheel, condense eternity into an instant, and divide eternity into eternity in an instant, causing the locked existence to reverse time and cultivation.
Recalling the description of this profound technique, Chen Beiwu couldn't help but mutter to himself, "The battle is about to be decided!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Dan, Tie Dan, Xue Le, and Zhi Ling all pushed their divine senses to the limit, unwilling to miss the slightest detail.
"Boom!"
Under Aji's control, the wheel of time turned, reflecting the river of time, and a terrifying roar resounded between heaven and earth, sprinkling out drops of crystal-clear water.
The water droplet shattered in mid-air and landed on the forehead of the Fighting Demon Ape, causing its demonic body to shrink by a thousand feet and its cultivation level to drop by a thousand years.
As the wheel of time turned again, the river of time manifested behind the Fighting Demon Ape, with surging waves that spilled out even more water of cosmic light.
The Fighting Demon Ape was unable to move, its demonic body shrank another thousand feet, and its cultivation level dropped by another thousand years.
As the wheel of time turned three times, the strange phenomena behind Aji vanished along with the river of time.
The Fighting Demon Ape's bones creaked as its massive demonic body shrank to half a zhang under the erosion of the power of time. Its cultivation level plummeted to 5,999 years, reducing it to a late-stage Demon King.
This bizarre change made Jin Dan, Tie Dan, Xue Le, and Zhi Ling swallow hard, their minds becoming increasingly shocked.
Could it be that Beiwu guessed correctly, and Aji really has a chance of winning?
Could it be that Aji only needs to use his ultimate secret technique to defeat the late-stage Demon King Fighting Demon Ape, who is at the peak of the Demon King realm?
"it's over!"
Aji seized the opportunity, bullying the weak with his strength. A chilling autumn wind swept across the land, completely engulfing the Fighting Demon Ape.
In an instant, the demonic ape was covered in blood, its flesh and blood exploded, and it was torn to pieces, leaving no trace of its body, except for a still-beating heart floating in the air.
Aji could no longer maintain the Yin-Yang True Domain of the Four Seasons and reverted to its original state.
"I won!"
Aji gasped for breath and turned to look at Chen Beiwu.
The Creation Beast possesses a formidable physical body, and the Fighting Demon Ape is the pinnacle of the Demon King realm. Even with the influence of the Cosmic Wheel, it would not be easy to determine a winner in an instant.
Fortunately, after it manifests the cosmic wheel, the autumn killing yin wind it unleashes can cause all living beings in the world to wither instantly, thus enabling it to cross the boundary and establish victory in one fell swoop.
To Aji's surprise, it didn't sense any joy from Beiwu, but instead saw a solemn look in his eyes.
"call out!"
Chen Beiwu's figure flashed, and he instantly landed in front of Aji, making no attempt to conceal his aura.
"You take a rest for a while, and leave the rest to me."
Looking at Chen Beiwu's solid background, Aji was slightly taken aback, and then subconsciously looked towards the location of the demonic ape's heart.
Because this was a friendly spar, it held back and did not destroy the Fighting Demon Ape's heart and inner core.
In this way, even if the Fighting Demon Ape loses its physical body, it will not perish. It can still be reborn based on its heart and the blood of the Three Immortals and Creation, provided that the interference of the Cosmic Wheel dissipates.
But now, Aji's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly sensed an extremely strong sense of crisis.
This terrifying crisis was like a bone-deep infection, causing Aji's fur to stand on end. Even the four little guys, Jindan, Tiedan, Xuele, and Zhiling, looked solemn and uneasy.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Under Chen Beiwu's gaze, the demonic ape's heart pounded violently, emitting a deafening roar.
"What's going on?" Aji asked instinctively.
"Ancient texts of the Immortal Alliance record two sentences: 'The Fighting Demon Ape takes fighting as its proof and war as its way. Ordinary cultivators who wish to kill it are like adding fuel to a fire; the more intense the fire, the more the fuel burns, eventually creating a prairie fire.'"
Chen Beiwu bluntly stated, "Although your Autumn Killing Yin Wind is powerful, it cannot defeat the Fighting Demon Ape. On the contrary, it will cause it to completely enter the Fighting Demon state."
"After entering this special fighting stance, the Fighting Demon Ape will receive an incredible boost in cultivation and combat power. At the same time, it will go berserk, indiscriminately attacking friend and foe, and crushing everything in its path."
"Therefore, this posture is also called the Demonic State by the Immortal Alliance cultivators, symbolizing unprecedented slaughter, and is also called the Demonic Tribulation by the ancient celestial immortals."
Upon hearing this, Aji took a deep breath and said, "So I lost after all?"
"Victory and defeat are common occurrences; you can win them back in the future," Chen Beiwu comforted Aji.
"If I don't hold back, can I suppress and kill the Fighting Demon Ape?" Aji asked, skeptical.
In its view, this was just a friendly exchange, not a fight to the death.
It was because it held back that the Fighting Demon Ape was able to preserve its heart and inner core.
If it were to unleash the full power of the Autumn Killing Yin Wind Profound Path, with the absolute difference of two minor realms, it might very well be able to kill and annihilate the Fighting Demon Ape.
"There are no ifs." Chen Beiwu glanced at Aji.
He had read extensively in the Immortal Alliance's books and was extremely knowledgeable about the Fighting Demon Ape.
Immortal Alliance Qinghe True Venerable once left his thoughts on the Jade Purity Creation Beast Ranking, stating that beings below the level of cultivation giants could not suppress the Fighting Demon Ape.
Forcibly killing a Nascent Soul True Venerable would backfire, easily causing the Nascent Soul True Venerable to burn his demonic body and enter a world-destroying battle demonic state.
Therefore, even if Aji eventually loses his temper and develops murderous intent towards the Fighting Demon Ape, and bullies the weak, he still cannot possibly kill it.
This is the true value of being third on the Creation Beast Ranking!
"That's true. A loss is a loss; there are no 'what ifs'."
Aji closed his eyes, then changed the subject, asking with concern, "What will happen if the Fighting Demon Ape continues its rampage?"
It knew very well that the Fighting Demon Ape was not only Bei Wu's friend, but also the Creation Beast that Bei Wu wanted to contract.
"It's alright, I'll make it stop," Chen Beiwu said casually.
Just then, the sky suddenly darkened, the deafening roar disappeared, and a large shadow completely covered the location where Chen Beiwu was.
Chen Beiwu looked up and saw the clouds and mist evaporate, and a giant palm appeared in the sky.
At this moment, flesh and blood are regenerated, and the completely berserk Battle Demon Ape opens its five fingers, which, like tilting pillars of heaven, frantically gather the Dao of Battle Destruction.
Before the palm strike had even fully landed, with only a wisp of Battle Qi leaking out, the ground beneath Chen Beiwu's feet collapsed with a deafening roar, and the mountain peaks on the left and right sides rolled back to form two enormous rift valleys stretching for thousands of miles.
Chen Beiwu remained expressionless, slowly raising his hand. His gaze pierced through the chaotic spiritual energy of heaven and earth, landing on the blood-red Fighting Demon Ape.
Compared to the colossal hand that descended from the sky, Chen Beiwu's raised right hand seemed like a tiny grain of sand, yet it excited the berserk Fighting Demon Ape instinctively.
"open!"
Before the Fighting Demon Ape could react, Chen Beiwu let out a soft shout, activated the Primal Myriad Tribulations Body, and unleashed a palm strike that shook the heavens, directly meeting the colossal palm that blotted out the sky.
Rumble!
The two clashed briefly, and then the ten-thousand-foot-tall demonic ape flew into the air, only to be lifted up by Chen Beiwu with immense strength.
The simple and violent scene left Aji speechless.
It's exaggerated. Compared to the Fighting Demon Ape, Chen Beiwu seems more like a Creation Beast.
