The Ning Jiao’s sting was tossed towards Wen Leyang by Qian Ren, who had turned into the golden monkey. It made a sharp curve as it arced through the sky. As soon as it touched Wen Leyang, it buzzed softly and melted into his body. Almost at the same time, a dismal and suppressed howl erupted in the silence. Wen Leyang bulged his eyes. His expression became contorted and hideous!
Bony Ning Jiao had absorbed its own Poison of Yin and Yang at the Place of Birth, Life, Sickness and Death. It could be said that the entire Ning Jiao, including its skin, flesh, bones and blood, had turned into Wen Leyang’s treasured weapon. At this moment, Ning Jiao’s sting and Ning Jiao’s armor met in Wen Leyang’s body and immediately, the Poison of Yin and Yang erupted. It intertwined with Wen Leyang’s Poison of Life and Death. They flowed and swirled together as they joined into a raging whirlpool. The speed at which he absorbed the devil fetus’ Poison of Wood accelerated by a few times!
Ning Jiao’s sting and armor lived and grew with Wen Leyang. When it absorbed the poison, they complemented Wen Leyang’s Poison of Life and Death, which made things a lot easier.
Bony Ning Jiao, which was frozen into a chunk of ice, had dropped into the abyss and was nowhere to be found. At this moment, it showed itself again. It wrapped itself around Wen Leyang like a wild python wrapping around a column. It hissed and slithered in frenzy. A cold wind and dreary mist rose in a flowing rhythm, striking fear into other people’s hearts!
Chang Li and Cone Nail laughed at the same time. They leaped upwards, surrounded the devil fetus and the golden monkey and started their fierce attacks.
The three peerless demon immortals and Wen Leyang joined forces to annihilate the devil fetus. The only uncertainty was who would be the final killer!
Guo Huan and Xiaowu mumbled to each other, guessing the identity of the “lottery winner”…
The two female demons summoned their magic powers endlessly. They did not hold back their demonic primordial energy as they rained blow after blow on the devil fetus.
A golden light curled, the monkey Qian Ren’s speed was too fast for the eye to catch. Countless punches and kicks crashed on the human-faced phoenix’s head like a tempest. Qian Ren had lost his wood element primordial base, he had no magic art to cast. However, the golden monkey’s body was the most powerful and sturdiest weapon under the heavens. Amidst a loud clangor, the devil fetus’ head was split open by him, it was a gruesome sight.
Gou Mang’s seed had only recently formed a fetus. It was still far away from obtaining spiritual wisdom and turning into a devil god. It had no magic powers or magic arts at its disposal. It could only rely on its thirteen long plumes and fought the enemy out of instinct. Under the combined attacks of the three peerless great demons and Wen Leyang’s relentless absorption of its life vitality, it lost all powers of resistance.
Of the four persons, who pincer-attacked the devil fetus, Wen Leyang took drastic measures, Chang Li and Cone Nail’s demon magic flew in a flurry, the golden monkey’s punches hit their target and every hit shocked the heavens and shook the earth. Even though it had exceptional natural endowments, the devil fetus, which stole the good fortune of the world, could not hold its ground any longer. Amidst its wails and chirps, its long plumes broke one after another. Its head was so deformed that it hardly had any shape. The glow of its body quickly dimmed…
Finally, amidst a howl so forceful it made everyone’s feet shook, Wen Leyang’s body, which had been strung in midair by the spirit thread, coiled up. He flipped high into the air. Raising Ning Jiao’s sting high, he stabbed strongly at the devil fetus’ chest!
The other three demon immortals also struck with their most powerful strike at this moment. Demon blades and icicles struck from the sides as they stabbed into the ribs under the human-faced phoenix’s wings. Eventually, they met within the strange bird’s belly and wildly minced its insides. Qian Ren smashed through the top of the devil fetus’ skull. The monkey, which let off a golden glow, plunged into the head of the strange bird. Then, he came out from its chin.
The strange bird’s neck stiffened with a jerk. It suddenly opened its mouth the instant the four great damages entered its body, but it could not let out its dying wail. On its body, which had turned into the color of a cadaver, countless grueling wrinkles visibly grew. A few seconds later, the wrinkles turned into rotting black spots. Soft shuffling sounds were heard. The devil fetus, which was as sparkling and resplendent as blue jade, withered completely. It was like a withered leaf, which had all of its moisture extracted. It turned lifelessly and floated down the abyss. It had crumbled into fine powder before it even disappeared from everyone’s sights.
The devil fetus is dead.
Chang Li’s body floated as she grabbed Wen Leyang, who was falling down into the abyss with flailing limbs. Wen Leyang had some regret in his heart. His gaze flickered and he dared not meet Chang Li’s eyes, “This disciple has done wrong…”
He had rashly reached for the spirit thread and almost cost the lives of everyone there. If it were not for Guo Huan’s decisive activation of the Demon Body Breaking Spell, the only one who would still be living would be Xiaowu.
Chang Li only understood his meaning after being slightly stunned. She waved dismissively, “It’s nothing! You’re not allowed to say that you have done wrong in the future!” After she finished, she paused. She was worried that Wen Leyang would disobey and she added, “After this, if I ever find out that you apologized to someone, I’ll kill that person!”
The golden monkey was like a puppy, which had just finished its swim. He shook himself from head to tail. He shook off the filth, which dirtied his body when he went through the devil fetus’ head. He asked hesitantly, “Who killed the demon fetus?”
Everyone looked at each other. Everyone almost struck at the same time. They were unsure which one of them should step up to claim god’s punishment.
Within the exchanged glances of the four persons, there were hints of smiles. Although they knew that they would invoke god’s punishment if they killed the devil fetus, during the final strikes, not one of them intentionally slowed their attacks even for half a second!
The golden monkey folded his arms behind him. He put on a cold indomitable air of a demon, “We’ll know when god’s punishment comes! If the four of us killed the devil fetus together, then we’ll take god’s punishment together!” Cone Nail and Chang Li pouted at him in unison, ignoring the monkey.
Chang Li diverted the topic with a smile. She tapped Wen Leyang who was held by her, “Young man, you must know how to fly by now, right?”
Wen Leyang took a breath. He nodded eagerly towards Chang Li, “Try and let go, I’ll see if I can…”
Chang Li let go. Wen Leyang fell. He flailed his limbs, his body spiraled…
Cone Nail broke into laughter with a start. She reminded loudly, “Bony Snake! Bony Snake!”
It was alright if he did not know how to fly, Bony Ning Jiao knew how to fly. Wen Leyang was hit with a sudden realization. He waved Ning Jiao’s sting in his hand as he fell. As expected, with a haughty and furious howl, the Bony Ning Jiao appeared beside him with a loud noise. It flew here and there, shaking its head and tail as it chased Wen Leyang and dropped downwards together… Wen Leyang fell, the Bony Ning Jiao flew, their speeds were the same.
Chang Li flew down and saved Wen Leyang in midair. She was exasperated that her disciple did not live up to her expectations, “Why are you still so useless?” As she said this, she sent the Bony Ning Jiao flying with a wave, “This beast is also useless, it just looked as you fell to your death!”
The devil fetus’ life vitality energy was only slightly inferior to Chang Li, Cone Nail and the others. It was now completely absorbed by Wen Leyang. In addition to his former Poison of Life and Death and Ning Jiao’s Poison of Yin and Yang within his body, if he used all of them at once, his powers could very well be even more terrifying than Chang Li’s but he did not even know how to fly.
Wen Leyang was also puzzled. He guessed hesitantly, “Our Tuo Xie’s method of practice… does not know the art of flying?”
Cone Nail also descended. Sorrow filled her eyes before anyone could notice it, “I don’t think that’s it! Try and hit me… hit the monkey.”
Wen Leyang asked Qian Ren to be cautious. Then, he utilized his Qi, yelled, punched and let out a loud sound. He sent the monkey, who had no intentions of resisting, reeling in midair.
The golden monkey smiled honestly, “That’s not bad already…”
However, Wen Leyang was extremely dejected. This punch showed no improvements from before he absorbed the Poison of Wood. He was merely as powerful as before he went down the pit.
Cone Nail lowered her head sadly, “You still can’t use it… In the ore cave, even Tian Yin could not withstand the Poison of Water gathered by the ‘firecrackers’. Logically speaking, your powers should have been on par with us after you’ve exited the ore cave… You can’t use it if you only had the poison of the five elements and not the Yin corpse poison…”
On the snow-covered peak, Cone Nail had discussed Wen Leyang’s method of practice with Guo Huan. Simply absorbing the poison of the five elements would not have any substantial improvements for Wen Leyang’s powers. If they could not find the Poison of Yin to balance it out, the Chaos condensed by the Poison of Life and Death would not truly be pure, Wen Leyang would also be unable to achieve a breakthrough.
Wen Leyang did not have time to make fun of Cone Nail’s act. He shook his head with dissatisfaction, “At least… even if I can’t be on your level, I would still have improvements, no? But now, I’m no different than I was before!”
To put it bluntly, Wen Leyang’s method of practice was a method to achieve a saint’s body. Although the Poison of Life and Death within his body was majestic, if he utilized all the poison, his body would not have been able to withstand it. Even if the Poison of Life and Death was the vast ocean, it could only flow out from the tap that was Wen Leyang. The stream would only be as thick as the tap. He only utilized about twenty percent of the Poison of Water, which he absorbed the last time. This time, he had absorbed the Poison of Wood but he could not even wield it. The powers he could utilize was only as strong as his body.
This was not something, which Wen Leyang could control. Even if he wanted to trade the destruction of his body in exchange for an all-out strike, he could not do it. The Poison of Life and Death merely adjusted the strength of the blow according to his body’s strength.
Qian Ren was an old cultivator, his experience was much greater than Chang Li and the others. He smiled and shook his head, “Harmonizing Yin and Yang and remolding your bones are methods for you to execute the power of the Poison of Life and Death fully. Otherwise, it’s useless no matter how much poison of the five elements you absorb!”
A pure Poison of Life and Death could remold his body. The first time was his meridian vessels, the second time was his bones. After being remolded twice, his powers had increased tremendously. If there were no Poison of Yin to harmonize the five elements’ Poison of Yang and lift his body into another level, Wen Leyang’s powers would not be able to improve.
Although he knew that the monkey spoke the truth, Wen Leyang still did not like to hear it. He touched the head of the monkey as if he was cuddling a pet and diverted the topic, “Where’s Qin Zhui?”
The monkey was immediately worried. This was too much. He responded with spite, “That young lad is out cold down below. His foundation is still intact, he will get better after some rest!” As he said this, he turned and leaped into the abyss, “I’ll go get him!”
Cone Nail immediately added, “The small bowl. Return it to me if you no longer have any use for it!”
The monkey dropped down at a quick speed. He took out the small bowl, which was sealed by a magical talisman and still contained the heavenly water spirit, and tossed it towards Cone Nail.
Wen Leyang had heard that a monkey’s puffed up cheek could store food. He had truly seen something new today. The small bowl covered in saliva grossed Cone Nail out. She tore a piece of fabric from Wen Leyang’s garments and wiped it.
Chang Li chuckled and reached out a hand. She patted Wen Leyang’s shoulder, “Although your strength didn’t increase, there must be some other perk, right?”
At the mention of this, Wen Leyang smiled broadly again, “Poison of Wood, takes roots as it falls, lives on continuously!”
The Poison of Water was piercingly cold. After it was absorbed, the Poison of Life and Death had a newly added water quality, which allowed the poison to condense out of his body; this time, the Poison of Wood was no less inferior. It could be said that the poison could be sent out of Wen Leyang’s body. If he willed it, anyone he touched would be poisoned.
Wen Leyang was honestly worried that the others did not understand. He continued explaining, “The Poison of Life and Death could flow between the things that I touch and myself.” As he said this, he paused briefly as he thought about how to pick his words, “For example, I have a stick in my hand. I’m poisonous, so is the stick. If I hit a table with the stick, the Poison of Life and Death would flow between the stick, the table and I. Hence, the table will be poisonous. Anyone who touches the table will have the poison flowing into him. The point is, as long as my Poison of Life and Death is sufficient, the cycle would be endless!”
Cone Nail and Chang Li nodded indifferently. The Poison of Wood’s endless vitality was the dream skill of the Wen Bucao, who delved in the Art of Poison for generations, but it was not something special to demon immortals.
Wen Leyang did not explain too much to them but continued to smile, “There’s another perk!” As he said this, he pointed at the giant rock tower above everyone’s heads.
Cone Nail exclaimed in surprise and reacted. She grabbed Wen Leyang’s hands, her eyes were filled with excitement, “The demon tower is yours?” If the devil fetus died, the rock tower would not be destroyed, but it would have at least fell into the abyss, it should not have stayed where it was like what it was doing now.
Wen Leyang nodded with immense pride. With a flow of his thoughts, the giant demon tower vibrated lightly. Obviously, it responded to him. Then, Guo Huan appeared rigidly from the tower, “Wen Leyang, don’t you fight with me over this!”
When the human-faced phoenix died, Guo Huan plunged into the demon tower with a cheer. The matter was not much different from what he had thought. The demon tower accepted him almost without resistance. It became his new body. However, Guo Huan quickly discovered that although he had become the demonic soul of this ‘body’, this new body had another master.
Wen Leyang had absorbed all of the devil fetus’ life vitality, naturally, he also received the devil fetus’ treasured weapon, which was this demon tower as huge as a lofty mountain!
The relationship between Guo Huan and Wen Leyang was more intimate compared than before. Before this, the jade knife could only be considered as Wen Leyang’s private property. Now, the demon tower was a treasured weapon, which moved according to Wen Leyang’s wishes!
As long as Wen Leyang did not interfere, Guo Huan could cultivate within the demon tower. He would eventually be able to realize his expectations, to cultivate the demon tower into human form and turn into the peerless demon immortal that he was.
Although his method of practice did not improve, his Art of Poison was raised to another level. At the same time, he had received a shocking treasured weapon. Wen Leyang grinned from ear to ear. He looked around with delight.
During this moment, Qian Ren had already returned with Qin Zhui on his back. When he saw that Wen Leyang had received the rock tower, he suddenly laughed. He said with a silly appearance, “Wen Leyang’s luck is the… best?”
When Wen Leyang saw that Qin Zhui was breathing steadily, he felt relieved. After he heard the monkey’s words, he was slightly puzzled, he did not understand what he meant…
Recently, the depths of Mount Hua had livened up. Cultivators came to the mountain in batches. A fair number of rogue cultivators had ridden on the favor of the rescue both of them did at the Great Mercy Temple, all those who had nothing crucial to take care of were rushing over to Mount Hua.
The last time when they fought over treasures on Mount Emei, although quite a number of rogue cultivators went, there were many who were unwilling to cross the Great Mercy Temple or would not want any part of the commotion. They ignored the summons of the Painting Town and stayed within their own immortal’s cave. However, it was different this time. The battle between good and evil was heating up but the Painting Town made no move to rally the forces. Every rogue cultivators felt insecure, afraid to be involved in this great battle. The numbers of rogue cultivators that came to Mount Hua this time was much larger than the last time. When it seemed like someone wanted to help the rogue cultivators, the rumors spread by meddlesome people had it that there was a strong backer behind Ji Fei and Shui Jing.
Whether it was Ji Fei, Shui Jing, Wen Leyang, who was behind the brothers’ backs, or even cat demon Chang Li, the two rabbit demons must give them face. They personally led the elites of the Five Supreme Monasteries all the way to Mount Hua. The Buddhist Sects under the heavens had always looked to Great Mercy Temple as their leader, all of them sent elites to join the rally.
As for the other three sects of the Five Blessings, although Eyang Sect’s San Wei’s split body had impressive magical powers, he had no care for the world and only concentrated on cultivation; Jilong Sect’s powers were greatly diminished and they had retreated into their sealed mountain; Kunlun Sect was nowhere to be found. Other than Wen Leyang and the others, nobody knew where they went.
Within the span of a few short years, only two sects, Great Mercy Temple and One Word Palace were left in the right cultivation path’s Five Blessings…
Compared to the right cultivation paths, the World Sect seemed to have grown stronger. On Mount Hua, there were a large number of unfamiliar cultivators. They either came in throngs or small groups to take part in the rally. Although it was not clearly mentioned, these people were not disciples of the Five Blessings, nor were they rogue cultivators. Their identities could be understood without being told.
To those with sharp eyes, this rally of rogue cultivators could turn into a battlefield of good and evil at any moment!
On the second day of the second month, it was the Longtaitou Festival. It was only a day away from the rally. Most of the various cultivators, who were supposed to appear, had already arrived on Mount Hua’s Goddess Peak. They were full of discontent. The brothers Ji Fei and Shui Jing did nothing. They did not prepare food nor did they show the way. They only placed obvious wooden signs at the feet of Goddess Peak. Every sign was painted with a big arrow, which pointed to the peak.
At the peak, Ji Fei and Shui Jing beamed with joy as they chattered with the big and small rabbit demons, Second Mother, Chi Maojiu and the others. There was already a crowd on the peak. They scattered in self-formed groups to the east and west, The Rainbow brothers had also arrived before anyone noticed and were making their way through the crowd.
Bushuo and Buzuo had also followed Second Mother and the others to Mount Hua. They discussed softly at the side. The two of them chuckled and ran over to greet the Rainbow brothers.
The seven fat men retained their silly looks. They cheered and surrounded Bushuo and Buzuo. All of them talked at once. Wen Buzuo suddenly laughed. He lowered his voice and said, “Stop acting, we know that you guys are the leaders of the World Sect! That old man is your servant!”
Three-inch nail Wen Bushuo nodded forcefully with a snort.
Shock registered on the faces of the seven fat men who had partial memory loss. They were suddenly at a loss for words.
Wen Buzuo’s smile resembled a villain’s more and more, “Ji Fei and Shui Jing are men of Nine Peaks Mountain no matter how you see it. Also, the rogue cultivators’ rally had nothing to do with the battle between good and evil. Don’t go to extreme measures later.”
The Rainbow leader looked to his left and right. When he was sure that nobody paid them any attention, he sighed softly, “How did you guys find out?”
Wen Buzuo made a mysterious expression, “I’ve investigated it!” Then, he did not allow them to question and immediately diverted the topic, “Grand Master Chang Li is magnanimous, with a merciful heart…”
The seven brothers looked at each other. They wondered if he was talking about Chang Li.
“She would not get involved in the battle between good and evil but she will definitely protect Great Mercy Temple. Also, the rogue cultivators had no troubles with the world, she would not bear to see so many unrelated peoples being dragged into the slaughter. That’s why she tacitly agreed to Ji Fei and Shui Jing organizing this rally.” Wen Buzuo’s tone was relaxed. It was not an order nor was it a discussion, he only seemed to be talking nonsense.
The Rainbow leader nodded and chuckled, “We’re also here to see the show. As long as the rogue cultivators do not side with the right cultivation paths, we will be indifferent. May Grand Master Chang Li be rest assured!”
Wen Buzuo laughed drily. He did not put any effort into masking his insincerity, “That’s good, that’s good. I didn’t want to be so blunt initially but when I saw that a large number of World Sect people, I thought I’d better come and offer my greetings first.”
The Rainbow leader unexpectedly shook his head, “It’s true that quite a few disciples have come from our side, but those with uncertain identities, at least half of them aren’t our men! Maybe… quite a number of obscure cultivators have come to join in the fun as well!” After he finished, he tried to get in good with them, “Us, the seven brothers, had penetrated Mount Emei’s mountainside with Wen Leyang. We have a friendship of life and death. Great Mercy Temple and Nine Peaks Mountain are friends, we’re intimate friends with Wen Leyang!”
Wen Buzuo’s smile bloomed into a flower. He took out a bright red wedding invitation card and pushed it into the Rainbow leader’s hands, “On the tenth day of the fourth month is Wen Leyang’s big day. Before we descended the mountain, Grand Elder had reminded us many times over that you guys had to attend. They had reserved ninety-nine tables for you World Sect… is that enough?”
The Rainbow leader was nodding but when he heard that there were ninety-nine tables, his scalp tingled. Ninety-nine tables meant nine hundred and ninety-nine persons, that made nine hundred and ninety-nine gifts…
Another Rainbow brother was hit with a sudden realization. He drew cold breaths as he asked Wen Buzuo, “After Ji Fei and Shui Jing becomes the leader of the rogue cultivators, they would also receive the wedding invitation, right?”
On the other side, when Nineteen saw the host of Great Mercy Temple, she immediately went to pay her due respects as a junior. After little rabbit demon returned the gesture, he asked her with her a chuckle, “Aren’t old man Xia and old man Ma coming?”
Nineteen replied respectfully, “Father and uncle had some errands to run. I don’t know if they’ll make it in time.”
Shan Duan continued wearing his fake smile, “It’s been such a long time since I’ve seen the two old immortals, I miss them so…” He was chattering when a gallant laugh rolled up the mountainside, “I’m sorry to trouble the divine monk to think about me. It seems that I’ve made it after all. A serious matter such as this, how can One Word Palace not come. Old Xia brought Old Ma along!”
At the same time, a slightly lazy and friendly voice came from the foot of Goddess Peak, “The Kunlun Sect would also like to join in the fun! First Brother Xia, Second Brother Ma, please wait for me. I’ll introduce some good friends from the highlands to you!”
Liu Zheng’s voice barely faded when another stiff voice sounded loudly, “The lama Rangjung and his companions pay their respects to the fellow gods of the land of the east’s cultivation world!”
With a buzz, the peak fell into a mess. The rogue cultivators whispered into each other’s ears. It was nothing rare for One Word Palace to have come but Kunlun Sect, which had initially disappeared had also appeared, bringing along with them a bunch of highland cultivators. That astonished everyone.
The entire Kunlun Sect had gone to the highlands. However, they had left some informers in the cultivation world. The modern means of communication was also very advanced. When Ji Fei and Shui Jing sent out the invitation card, Liu Zheng had immediately received word of it on the highlands.
Naturally, Liu Zheng did not know that this rally was a row kicked up by Ji Fei and Shui Jing. Just recently, Cone Nail had fought with the dog-headed eagle on the highlands until the heavens were shocked and the ground shook. He thought that the Wen family had something special in mind by organizing this rally. He left the seventy-two esteemed sword seniors on the highlands and came alone to Mount Hua. In the process, he even met head lama Rangjung who had settled his own affairs and was ready to embark to aid Wen Leyang, with the highland cultivators who followed Rangjung.
In no time, Liu Zheng held First Brother Xia while head lama Rangjung and the big group of cultivators followed behind them. They laughed as they went up the mountain. Naturally, a series of merrymaking and introductions followed. Liu Zheng could not find Wen Leyang. After he entertained a few of his acquaintances, he found a vacant space and pulled Ji Fei and Shui Jing over. He asked them in a low voice, “Why didn’t Wen Leyang come? Is he on Mount Hua?”
Fat monk Shui Jing was honest, he nodded after he heard those words, “Wen Leyang is on Mount Hua…?” If it were not for Ji Fei who gave him a smack in the head just in time, the fat monk would have spilled the beans. The two of them pretended to have amnesia and ‘coincidentally’ came to Mount Hua for the meeting.
Liu Zheng could tell that something was fishy with these two but he was not aware of the happenings in the Place of Birth, Life, Sickness and Death. Even if his brain was ten thousand times smarter, he would not have been able to guess the sequence of the events. He furrowed his brows and asked, “Is Wen Leyang on Mount Hua? Is he here or not?”
Of course Wen Leyang was on Mount Hua. His mouth was gaping right now as he made choking sounds. After a long while, he asked four words pitiably, “I’m… crossing god’s punishment!?”
Chang Li nodded and looked at the others. The golden monkey crossed his arms and laughed, “This young lad had invoked god’s punishment to save me. Now is an apt time to return the favor!”
Cone Nail sighed sorrowfully, “I’ve even saved the dog-headed eagle, how can I not care for it!? Let’s go up, it’s more spacious there and it’ll be easier for our skills!”
Wen Leyang only felt his body grow heavier. He was already tossed back onto the demon tower by Chang Li. The few of them did not stop their footsteps. They quickly climbed up onto the ground’s surface along the giant tower. Wen Leyang leaped upwards, slightly dissatisfied. The four of them had killed the human-faced phoenix at the same time, why did the god’s punishment fall on his head in the end?
Cone Nail wore a sorrowful expression, as if the one who would suffer god’s punishment was her, “Although the devil fetus wasn’t fully-formed, the reasoning is the same. The primordial spirit within the treasured weapon is closely related with its master’s primordial base. If the primordial base is depleted, the master dies and the magic weapon will turn into a lonely soul or wild ghost. Primordial base in the foundation of a cultivator’s life vitality. When you absorb the Poison of Wood from the devil fetus, you’ve first absorbed its life vitality and finally absorbed the primordial base.”
Actually, the primordial base was no different from life vitality force, they were both used to form the foundation. In terms of volume, it was slightly denser. Just like a house’s foundation, it was the same as the walls and beams, concrete and steel. However, Wen Leyang did not quite understand. His hairs stood up as he listened on. He somehow felt that he had snatched the placenta of the devil fetus and swallowed it whole.
The monkey Qian Ren continued to explain to him, “It’s because you’ve absorbed the devil fetus’ primordial base that you’re able to subdue the demon tower. When the primordial base is depleted, the demon fetus dies. It was only penetrated by our magic powers the instant it died. If it does not die, its body will not be so fragile…”
The golden monkey was completely engrossed in his speech. Xiaowu leaped from Chang Li’s back out of the blue. She hugged the monkey and rubbed her cheeks against its fur that looked like a golden satin.
Chang Li was startled. She hastily cried out to the monkey, “Don’t you struggle, don’t hurt the little darling!”
The monkey was angered to the point of gritting his teeth. He looked even more silly and cute…
