Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

”WOOF WOOF! Victor, Victor? What are you doing? Why aren’t you up?”

The calls of Cyclops and Star, conveyed through Wen Yu’s link, were perceived by him and also transmitted into Victor’s mind.

However, it was as if his calls vanished without a trace; Victor remained unresponsive.

”It’s a trap! Help him! Cyclops, Star, go help him!”

In fact, even without Wen Yu’s command, Cyclops and Star immediately dropped their concealment. Their miniaturized bodies rapidly enlarged, and they emitted furious roars. This was to awaken Victor. Afterward, the two giant beasts charged toward the Laughing Monk!

Almost at the same moment Cyclops and Star enlarged, the Laughing Monk, who had been standing motionless in the distance, made his next move!

The tall, withered body slowly turned, facing directly toward Wen Yu in the distance. Then, the Laughing Monk slowly opened his eyes.

His pale golden pupils shone brightly, like two searchlights. Simultaneously, an exceptionally intense aura erupted from the Laughing Monk’s body. Wen Yu saw the Laughing Monk gently nod in his direction, a ’warm’ smile on his face, as if greeting an old friend he hadn’t seen in a long time. Then, the Laughing Monk slowly clasped his hands together.

”MOO!”

”BOOM!”

Three giant figures were flung into mid-air almost simultaneously, broken scales and black or gray fur fluttering down like catkins!

Is this what they call Level 4? Is this what physical fitness of about 15,000 points is like?

Seeing all three of his soul pets blasted into the sky after just one short exchange, Wen Yu incredulously asked the Almighty Demon Vine beside him.

”That’s right! Skills combined with a Cultivation Technique, and the Cultivation Technique boosts physical fitness. So the actual physical fitness is around 15,000 points. But things like species innate talent and Cultivation Technique enhancements... don’t you have a clue? Just be careful.”

After speaking, the Almighty Demon Vine immediately shrank as if terrified, quickly crawling back into Wen Yu’s right hand.

This guy... he actually retreated in the face of the enemy.

Wen Yu couldn’t be bothered with the Almighty Demon Vine’s cowardly act and also remained motionless.

The situation was clear: the Laughing Monk had discovered Wen Yu’s position and actions early on. This proved that the Laughing Monk’s Perception Ability, in some aspect, was actually stronger than Wen Yu’s.

Moreover, it definitely possessed an ability to break Concealment, allowing it to detect Victor in his hidden state.

Despite lacking intelligence, its intact battle instincts allowed the Laughing Monk to effortlessly determine the most suitable response!

In the distance, his three soul pets were dizzily getting up. Wen Yu briefly glanced at their status.

Although they had been blasted quite far, the Laughing Monk’s recent attack hadn’t been overwhelmingly powerful. The three soul pets had only suffered some broken surface scales.

This was the fundamental reason Wen Yu hadn’t moved. In his view, while the strength the Laughing Monk displayed was indeed potent, it didn’t pose a direct mortal threat to his three soul pets.

And his soul pets were meant for battle, not for cowering under his protection like fledgling hawks facing a formidable enemy!

At this moment, Victor finally regained consciousness and quickly relayed information to Cyclops and Star.

”Be careful, that guy has a skill similar to an Illusion Technique.”

”That’s a Cultivation Technique,” the Almighty Demon Vine added nonchalantly.

Wen Yu sighed. The natives of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes possessed all sorts of strange Cultivation Techniques. Judging solely by the effects of that Illusion Technique, it was definitely on par with an S-Class skill.

This implied that the Laughing Monk could actually use far more than four skills!

Just as Wen Yu was rapidly analyzing the combat intelligence, the Laughing Monk finally made his next move.

As if relaxing his body, he slowly moved his joints. A series of cracking sounds emanated from them, like an old, long-unused machine finally sputtering to life after being refueled.

The next second, the Laughing Monk slowly unclasped his palms. He raised his left hand before his face, his body stooping slightly. His right hand formed a loose grip, then rapidly tensed with power!

Wen Yu could even see the muscles on the Laughing Monk’s right arm instantly bulge.

Immense energy fluctuations emanated from the Laughing Monk’s right hand. A force resembling spatial power swiftly spread throughout the entire area.

The next instant, a dazzling golden Chan Staff materialized out of thin air.

The illusory Chan Staff was formed entirely from pure energy. The terrifying aura it emanated was no less potent than the Laughing Monk’s own.

”BOOM!”

Despite his body appearing tiny compared to the three soul pets, he unleashed an absolutely massive force. Like a cannonball, the Laughing Monk shot forward, racing along the shortest straight line toward the three soul pets!

Mid-charge, golden and white glows flickered alternately on the Laughing Monk’s body. Various buffs intensified his aura, making it increasingly profound.

Is this a skill, or a Cultivation Technique...?

Wen Yu really couldn’t tell anymore!

The Laughing Monk’s sudden charge didn’t catch the three soul pets off guard.

In reality, the combat experience of Cyclops, Star, and Victor was extraordinary. It was only overshadowed by Wen Yu’s own power, making them appear somewhat helpless when facing formidable enemies.
