Chapter 696: Chapter 286: One Sword Fells the White Ape’s Demonic Head

The sunlight enveloped the Great Wilderness Border Village and the Great Mountain. It was exactly noon, and the sunlight was particularly dazzling as the sun hung high in the distant sky.

The sun was like a radiant pearl, releasing endless brilliance that illuminated the entire land. A deep roar echoed across the earth, carrying a thick sense of ferocity.

In an instant, a blood-red aura raged wildly at the path leading into the Great Mountain from the Great Wilderness Border Village. A black stone rod continuously hammered the white barrier before it, causing the ground to tremble.

Now.

The core forces of the monkey troop within the Great Mountain had all been slaughtered. Heads kept rolling on the ground, perpetually exuding a sense of unwillingness.

The White Ape never imagined that it would result in such an outcome now. Aside from itself, no other demon monkey survived.

”Boom---Boom----Boom----”

Three consecutive strikes were delivered as violent Spiritual Qi surged from its body. The white barrier before it now showed a trace of cracks.

Seeing this, the White Ape immediately became excited, looking at Xu Ran with impudence, and said with a laugh, ”A weak human, what foundation can you have? Watch how I break this lousy barrier with one strike!”

Having said that.

The White Ape raised the black stone rod in its hand, from which surged endless black Spiritual Qi, and then slammed it down fiercely.

”Boom---”

In an instant, yellow dirt flew up, accompanied by a crisp sound.

”Bang---”

Looking towards where the sound came from, a shattered mirror stood before Xu Ran, cracking on the ground.

As the yellow dirt dispersed, everyone’s gaze focused on Xu Ran, and they were shocked to see the disappeared barrier.

”Ah! The white barrier in front of Xu Ran disappeared? Was it broken by the White Ape?”

”Even Xu Ran couldn’t withstand the White Ape’s attack?!”

”It’s over, this time it’s really over!”

”Xu Ran has thoroughly enraged the White Ape this time!!”

...

Although Xu Ran’s pocket-sized Flying Sword was truly invigorating just now, it was only effective against lesser demons. Those lesser demons were something even those who have only undergone Body Refining twice could handle. To the White Ape, those lesser demons were no different from ants.

But those demon monkeys were only the subordinates of the White Ape. With all of them dead, the White Ape became a lone commander.

Even so, this does not change the White Ape’s mighty strength. In the face of its invincible power, any flashy means are futile.

...

Xu Binghu, Lian Ji, and Peregrine Falcon, protected by Xu Ran, didn’t feel too shaken even after seeing the shattered barrier.

The words Xu Ran had just whispered into their ears, ’As long as I am here!’, still echoed around them, giving them absolute confidence in Xu Ran.

...

Immense Spiritual Qi permeated around the White Ape, with a thick scent of blood spreading. Its blood-red eyes were filled with endless violence and cruelty. It swung the black stone rod in its hand, with black turbulent Spiritual Qi stirring up gales around it. The demon monkey corpses on the ground were all blown away, and some heads rolling on the ground rolled towards its feet, while others rolled towards the Great Mountain.

”Thunk---”

At that moment, a white monkey’s head rolled to its feet. The White Ape instinctively looked down and saw that it was indeed the only other speaking demon monkey among them. Instantly, it recalled what it had said in life.

Suddenly, its originally blood-red eyes brightened, and it looked up at Xu Ran as if gazing at a delicious meal plated on the table, licking its lips.

”Hahaha---” The White Ape suddenly laughed, its white fur quivering, ”Ant, I know you’ve exhausted all your tricks, which is why you killed all the demon monkeys!”

A self-confident expression appeared once more on the White Ape’s face, as if everything was under control, and the mournful expression it had shown for its monkey descendants vanished.

Xu Ran, with a calm demeanor, showed a puzzling expression for the first time upon hearing the White Ape’s words, indicating he did not understand what it was talking about.

He was utterly confused at the moment.

”Humph!” The White Ape sneered with confidence, ”Ant, stop pretending. I’ve already seen through your thoughts!”

Ignoring the puzzled gaze of Xu Ran, the White Ape began explaining itself.

”Earlier, my monkey grandchild revealed your most fatal weakness, which is why I had to kill it. But afterwards, to avoid drawing attention, you beheaded all the demon monkeys!”

Just as the white monkey’s head rolled underfoot, the White Ape realized something.

Before its death, it had informed the White Ape that the peculiar white material on Xu Ran was a consumable, much like Spiritual Qi, which would deplete and need time to recover. Otherwise, why would he only save the people beside him and not care at all about the village residents?

The main reason was that the strange substance on him was running out.

At this point, Xu Ran was also somewhat curious and raised an eyebrow, asking, ”Oh?! Tell me more?”

The White Ape stepped forward with a stone rod in hand, setting it on the ground, ”Since you want to understand before you die, I’ll fulfill your wish.”

After that, it revealed its inner thoughts.

Xu Ran was amazed after hearing this!

”How come I didn’t know this?”

Indeed, the Innate Qi in his body was a consumable and required time to replenish. However, at this moment, he had endless Innate Qi stored within him, and his Sea of Spirit continuously generated Innate Qi.
