Chapter 240: Tyrant Ape King
The ape also noticed Tang Yin’s intent to continue fighting. Its inner ferociousness and instincts responded to Tang Yin’s challenge.
ROAR
The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape let out a roar which represented its desire to crush its challenger.
White steam arose from the ape’s large body. Then it dashed towards Tang Yin, its speed was 20% faster than last time, and its eyes also shone with demonic bloodlust.
Tang Yin also darted towards the ape, crimson fog seeped out of his body and swiftly coated his right arm.
The Ethereal Slaughter Art and the Life and Death Seal did not reject each other. They did not fuse, but they did complement each other.
Within an instant, both the Rank 6 ape and Tang Yin arrived before each other.
This time the ape swung its left arm towards Tang Yin’s tiny body.
Tang Yin simply counterattacked with a punch with his right arm. He embedded his full physical strength into the attack.
BANG
Another loud bang reverberated through the crimson forest.
Tang Yin was pushed back by 500 hundred feet. His right arm was fully shattered once again, his shoulder, collar bone and ribs were also damaged.
The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape was flung back by 100 feet. Its left arm was broken and bleeding profusely. The left side of its torso was also damaged to a small extent due to the additional power of the Ethereal Slaughter Art.
Tang Yin brought out the corpse of a peak Rank 5 Demonic Beast and devoured it. Within a moment, his body returned to its peak.
The ape also had regenerative abilities, but they could not heal it so quickly. It was in the midst of a battle, and its regenerative abilities were not as effective or as quick.
Tang Yin brought out another Low-tier Rank 5 Demonic Beast corpse. Without delay, he devoured it.
A black aura of death and the image of a skull manifested on his right hand. He activated the Life and Death Seal again.
The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape hesitated. Both of its arms were broken, and its primary weapons were unavailable.
However, it did not have much time to think as Tang Yin rapidly closed in on it with the Phantom Steps.
It also sprinted towards Tang Yin, but just before the collision, it jumped. It had decided to squash Tang Yin under its feet.
Tang Yin swiftly retreated. Although he could break the arms of the ape with the Life and Death Seal, he could not withstand the weight and physical strength of the ape’s body. He would truly die.
Upon landing, a huge bang reverberated through the crimson forest. This was followed by a huge shockwave, it was powerful enough to make Tang Yin move back by a step.
The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape realised that the human before it was quite smart. He knew when to fight and when to retreat. It had also lost its primary weapons, its arms. Continuing the fight would be disadvantageous against it and would most likely not yield any results.
"Human, we will meet again." The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape had decided to retreat for now. It would hunt Tang Yin down once it recovered. It turned around and dashed back towards the crimson forest.
"Want to leave? Who gave you permission?" Tang Yin scoffed.
Suddenly, an ocean of black flames came forth from the crimson forest. All of the crimson trees in the way were swiftly burned to ashes.
The ape’s pupils shrank. It sensed danger from the flames, it quickly sprang back.
Tang Yin had sent an order to Xiao Fei through their connection to block off the ape’s path of retreat. He did not remain idle either, he shot towards the ape with the Life and Death Seal activated.
The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape was now faced with attacks from in front and the rear.
It raised its broken arms to fend against the incoming Everlasting Hell Flames. A red aura quickly manifested to form some sort of barrier behind it to impede Tang Yin.
Tang Yin arrived before the red barrier instantly, he punched it with his right fist, and the red barrier shattered instantly. The Life and Death Seal was used up by 30%.
Tang Yin continued shooting towards the ape, he arrived before its left leg and punched, utilizing his full power and the Life and Death Seal.
BOOM
The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape was hit from both sides. From the front, both of its arms were charred but remained in one piece. Its body was also scorched to different degrees. But it was not too severe, it was manageable. However, its left leg was broken by Tang Yin. It fell to one knee.
The Abyssal Sword manifested in Tang Yin’s hand. He arched his arm back whilst wildly injecting Abyss Qi into the sword.
Xiao Fei also hurled another deadly bout of Everlasting Hell Flames towards the Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape.
The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape felt a strong sense of danger from both the Everlasting Hell Flames and the Abyssal Sword.
With rarely seen fear and terror, it shouted, "Wait! I surrender, don’t attack!" It almost sounded as if it were about to cry.
Tang Yin was rendered speechless. The ape had seemed like a Demonic Beast that would never surrender and would fight to the end. But unexpectedly, it surrendered so easily.
However, it also made sense. The ape had intelligence surpassing normal humans. This also meant that it possessed the will to live.
Normally, Demonic Beasts would just try to flee or release a mutual destruction final attack when it had no way out.
But the Rank 6 Demonic Beast was smart. It knew that the other party would not kill it.
After all, who didn’t want a Rank 6 Demonic Beast bodyguard?
Just as expected, Tang Yin did not finish executing the Void Splitting Slash. But he still remained in position, ready to strike in case of resistance from the Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape. freёwebnoѵel.com
Xiao Fei did not retract her Everlasting Hell Flames, she instead stationed the black flames near the ape, ready to strike at the first sign of resistance.
"Why shouldn’t I kill you?" Tang Yin questioned the Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape.
The flesh, hide, bones, blood essence and the Beast Soul of a Rank 6 Demonic Beast were extremely valuable. Cultivators would pay astronomical prices for these rare commodities.
"I’m willing to serve you until you leave the Exotic Enclosure Region." The ape responded with a hoarse voice.
Tang Yin was slightly surprised, the ape seemed to know about the entrance of cultivators to the Exotic Enclosure Region once every 1,000 years. It also knew that the cultivators would vanish a week later.
"Very well, but you must give me a wisp of your Beast Soul." Tang Yin demanded.
Taking the wisp of a Demonic Beast’s Beast Soul was akin to controlling its life and death. The holder of the Beast Soul wisp could kill the Demonic Beast with a single thought.
"Never! How will I know that you will let me go once you leave the Exotic Enclosure Region?" The Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape shouted with fury, but it did not move.
"You don’t have a choice. Either die now or give me a wisp of your Beast Soul." Tang Yin readied the Void Splitting Slash, just as he was about to slash down, the ape spoke up.
"Fine. I’m trusting you. Please let me go before you leave the Exotic Enclosure Region." Its voice was filled with despair.
If it gave Tang Yin a wisp of its Beast Soul, it would still have a chance of survival later. But if it decided not to, it would die right now without any chance of survival.
The ape closed its eyes, and a moment later, a small finger-sized ape with the exact same appearance as the Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape appeared beside its head.
Its body was surreal, and it emitted a weak soul force. The Beast Soul wisp slowly flew towards Tang Yin.
Tang Yin flew back 100 feet before catching the Beast Soul wisp. He caged it inside his Soul Sea. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Inside the Soul Sea, Tang Yin’s soul stared at the Beast Soul wisp standing beside it.
It slapped its ape face. The Beast Soul wisp flew into the sea of Soul Energy and sunk to the bottom, unable to escape.
Tang Yin’s soul then closed its eyes and resumed its lotus position.
The Abyssal Sword in Tang Yin’s hand disappeared. He looked towards the Rank 6 Demonic Beast ape and nodded. "What should I call you?"
"You can call me Tyrant Ape King." The Tyrant Ape King responded with pride, but it just looked pitiful in its current condition.
"Alright, I’ll call you Old Ape." Tang Yin pretended not to hear the Tyrant Ape King.
Intense anger appeared on Old Ape’s face, but it disappeared, replaced by resignation.
