Sponsored chapter (9/10)

Boom boom…

The ground quaked, and the distant sound of countless footsteps grew closer and louder!

Xu Ziqing didn’t need to investigate; he immediately turned around, filled with shock.

The monks from the Wang family reacted swiftly. Seeing the impending danger, they couldn’t bear to temper their young master anymore. They raised their swords together and slew the monster in front of them. Wang Xing even stepped forward, beheading the monster in front of Wang Yingwu and shielding him behind him.

Soon, Wang Yingwu found himself surrounded by three monks from the Wang family. Wang Xing urgently said, “Fellow Daoists, get up quickly, there’s danger approaching! Be prepared.”

Wang Jun stood beside Nian Hongzhi and warned, “Brother, be careful.”

Nian Hongzhi replied, “Don’t worry, with our skills, it won’t be difficult to escape later.”

The monks were relieved, even excited. After this ordeal, the deep worries in their hearts would be eliminated, and their brother’s state of mind could advance further!

Just at that moment, the sound of footsteps drew near.

When everyone caught sight of it, they saw a black and gray figure swiftly moving up and down. The trees obstructing its path were torn apart by its long arms as if they were mere paper.

Amidst the gray shadow, a dazzling golden color shone brilliantly, causing rocks to groan as they ran, crumbling into dust.

A terrifying murderous aura emanated from the figure’s body, exuding immense pressure. The sheer intensity of its aura felt tangible and awe-inspiring!

It was a Tier 3 Monster Beast, the King Kong Giant Ape!

Wang Xing was shocked. “How can there be a group of apes?”

Could it be that merely killing an ordinary iron-skinned giant ape would provoke such a response from a whole group?

The group of monster beasts was vast, and ordinarily, if one of their own died outside, it wouldn’t usually incite retaliation from the entire group. Natural selection and survival of the fittest dictated that unless the slain monster had great potential and noble status, revenge would be unlikely.

When Wang Xing had killed the iron-skinned giant ape before, his talent and appearance were average, so he hadn’t taken it seriously. But seeing so many giant apes now, he regretted his carelessness and secretly blamed himself. Perhaps his erroneous thinking had caused this trouble.

However, he didn’t realize that he was mistaken. The iron-skinned giant ape was indeed ordinary, and the apes wouldn’t devote all their efforts to avenge it. Instead, their royal family had hired a few individuals with ulterior motives to avenge the death of their patriarch’s son.

And that’s why.

The King Kong giant ape’s eyes were as red as blood, and its demonic aura was frenzied, bordering on madness. It hissed, “Scum cultivators… go to hell!”

Under the giant ape’s command, the group stepped forward, their dozen or so long, hairy tails transforming into countless whip-like shadows, thrashing toward the monks!

“Papapa…”

The ground cracked, trees splintered, and sand and stones flew.

The apes’ onslaught was akin to a stormy sea, with an indomitable momentum driven by hatred, devoid of fear or hesitation!

If there had been only one iron skin giant ape, none of the monks present would have been fearful. However, they were now facing not one, but ten or more enraged apes. In the face of such an assault, how could they not be flustered?

The monks were perplexed. Why did this King Kong Giant Ape harbor such animosity? But this wasn’t the time to seek answers. The iron skin giant apes swung their arms like spinning wheels, and chaos ensued—green light flashed in Xu Ziqing’s palm as he held the thousand-year-old steel wood, feeling a numbness spreading through his hands as he clashed with the apes.

Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun wielded a knife and a sword respectively, engaging the apes one after another. Meanwhile, Wang Yingwu, not as vigorous as before, paled and took refuge among the three monks from the Wang family.

The ape group attacked fiercely, and Wang Yingwu became a burden. Before long, a weaker monk from the Wang family was caught by a giant ape and violently slammed to the ground. Two giant apes then stomped on the monk’s chest, instantly shattering his sternum and causing him to cough up blood.

Another giant ape lunged forward, gripping the monk’s neck with both hands and twisting it off, holding the severed head aloft while baring its teeth, emitting continuous laughter.

The strong scent of blood permeated Xu Ziqing’s nostrils. Although he sympathized with the ferocity of the giant apes, he couldn’t spare the attention. He was surrounded by three giant apes and couldn’t assist anyone.

Sighing, Xu Ziqing leaped into the air, raised his finger, and pointed at the rampant giant ape. “Duh!”

The iron skin giant ape still held the monk’s head in its hand when a blue light struck its forehead. In an instant, Mu Hua’s finger pierced through, causing the giant ape’s arm to tremble before it crashed to the ground.

Perish here!

Mu Hua Zhi technique consumed a significant amount of spiritual power, so it couldn’t be used frequently. However, the giant ape was so fierce that killing it was necessary to honor the spirit of the fallen monk.

Xu Ziqing landed on the ground, gripped the thousand-year-old steel wood, and raised his arms to continue battling the giant apes in front of him.

He steeled his heart, recalling Brother Yun’s words: “Monsters harm people; when it’s time to kill, there’s no need to show mercy.” Now, he understood the truth.

The enmity between monsters and humans ran deep, reaching the point of life and death!

Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun also employed various methods in their fight. With both of them at the eighth level of Qi refining, it wasn’t difficult to kill iron-skin giant apes of lower cultivation levels.

This wasn’t an ideal opportunity for them to make a move, but while they fought the giant apes, they gradually moved closer to Xu Ziqing.

Among the monks from the Wang family, one had already perished, and the others with lower cultivation bases became more cautious. Wang Xing furrowed his brow deeply. It was acceptable for his old self to die here, but his young master had a bright future ahead—how could he be buried in this place?

Surrounded by a group of apes, Xu Ziqing found himself in a precarious situation. He focused on protecting Wang Yingwu while searching for an opportunity to escape, but the ferocity of the giant ape and its companions made it challenging. Wang Yingwu had sustained numerous injuries despite Xu Ziqing’s efforts to shield him.

The situation was already dire, but it quickly took a turn for the worse. The King Kong Giant Ape, having sniffed the blood of its slain son, identified the culprit responsibly and joined the battle with a loud roar. With its heightened senses, the ape could trace the blood relationship through scent, and it had detected the presence of its offspring’s blood on one of the immortal cultivators.

Filled with hatred, the King Kong Giant Ape targeted Xu Ziqing without hesitation. It leaped into the air and confronted the young man directly. With hostile eyes, it reached out its massive hand, attempting to snatch the steel wood from Xu Ziqing’s grasp.

“Cultivator, I’ll take your life!” the King Kong Giant Ape shouted, launching a powerful punch toward Xu Ziqing.

Xu Ziqing quickly evaded, realizing he couldn’t withstand the ape’s attack head-on. The King Kong Giant Ape possessed incredible strength and a golden skin as tough as a magic weapon. If that punch landed with full force, it would undoubtedly be fatal.

Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun, observing the intense confrontation between Xu Ziqing and the King Kong Giant Ape, felt a sense of relief. The ape’s focus on Xu Ziqing confirmed their careful calculations and precautions.

The punch was devastating, resembling a fiery and demonic meteor as it streaked through the air at incredible speed. Xu Ziqing managed to avoid it by swiftly turning and retreating about ten feet. However, even in its wake, the grass and leaves were scorched blacks, a testament to the tremendous force behind the strike.

Witnessing the intense situation, Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun seized the opportunity to decapitate the two iron-skin giant apes that had surrounded Xu Ziqing. With the King Kong Giant Ape preoccupied, the remaining apes turned their attention to other monks, only to be swiftly dispatched by Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun.

The two warriors quickly reunited with Wang Yingwu, who had been besieged by five giant apes. Despite Wang Xing and another Wang family monk’s efforts to protect him, they were severely injured, and Wang Yingwu’s attacks could only momentarily repel the giant apes, unable to replicate his previous feat of killing them.

Relieved by the timely assistance, Wang Xing expressed his gratitude to Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun, promising them rewards from the Wang family for their valor. The monks swiftly departed.

Now, only five iron skin giant apes, one King Kong Giant Ape, and three immortal cultivators remained on the battlefield, engaged in a fierce battle. The iron-skin giant apes, although numerous, proved no match for Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun. With their skilled techniques and formidable magic weapons, they swiftly dispatched the apes one by one.

Eventually, only two giant apes remained. Rather than retreat, they grew even more ferocious, launching a coordinated attack. One ape attacked with furious punches, while the other leaped high into the air. Their fists moved so swiftly that it seemed like an onslaught of countless shadowy blows.

Despite the formidable fist technique, the difference in cultivation level couldn’t be overcome. With their exceptional magic weapons and coordinated teamwork, Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun managed to counter the attacks effectively. One brother skillfully parried the punches with his long knife, while the other swiftly struck at the apes’ legs, rendering them incapacitated. Nian Hongzhi then severed the heads of the remaining two apes with precise strikes.

With all the iron-skin giant apes defeated, Nian Hongzhi and Wang Jun rushed to assist Xu Ziqing. Calling out to him, they shouted, “Fellow Daoist Xu, we’re here to help!”

Engrossed in his intense battle with the King Kong Giant Ape, Xu Ziqing was relieved to hear their voices. He managed to respond before realizing that a sharp wind accompanied by a sense of imminent danger was approaching from behind.
