In other words, there’s really no saying you have finished using it up, unless it’s for cultivating the Immortal Sword Skill, which is a bottomless pit that can’t be filled.

First, he killed that white monkey, primarily because it was a talking monkey, which was really annoying. Plus, its voice was too sharp, like a eunuch’s, unbearably piercing and uncomfortable.

The remaining demon monkeys were the same, not requiring too much time to deal with.

Seeing Xu Ran standing there dazed, lost in thought, the White Ape was further convinced of its suspicions.

"You ant, who knows what kind of special constitution you’ve awakened to be so clever, to think of such a method to deceive everyone!"

"And that substance that allows for quick recovery is unheard of; it must have only appeared in ancient times, otherwise, how could it be so monstrous!"

Then its tone shifted, unable to restrain the smile on its face, "But all of this is just preparing a wedding dress for me. Once I completely devour you, I will definitely embed your skull on my Stone Rod and let your soul witness the day I become the Demon King!"

Afterwards.

The White Ape directly picked up the Stone Rod standing on the ground, a torrent of Spiritual Qi burst forth from its body, brimming with murderous intent, it swung the Stone Rod capable of smashing everything directly towards Xu Ran’s waist.

With such momentum, if hit directly, even Xu Ran in his current state would likely suffer serious injury.

Facing the terrifying aura of the White Ape, combined with the previous damage it caused to Xu Binghu and the Peregrine Falcon, Xu Ran naturally wouldn’t hold back.

Flickers of Innate Qi danced at his fingertips, then with lightning speed, he formed a seal, and the pocket-sized Flying Sword hovering above his head transformed into a swift stream of light, attacking the massive White Ape.

At this moment, all that was left of the White Ape’s body was its torso, the head rolling continuously on the ground.

"Huh? The world? How did it suddenly seem to freeze? So slow?" At this moment, the White Ape’s thoughts sped by, but the surroundings were completely motionless, feeling a dizzying upheaval.

Then.

A white streak of light suddenly flashed through the air, trailing a white luminescence behind it as it shot straight towards the ape, even as the speed was matched, it still could see the trajectory of the flight.

This stream of light it had seen before, it was with this technique Xu Ran had slaughtered its demon monkeys completely, leaving none alive, knowing this was Xu Ran’s final measure. As long as it blocked this, Xu Ran would be just an ant to be crushed, and the Kunpeng Essence Blood in the spirit pet would be as good as its own.

The White Ape instinctively wanted to use the black Stone Rod in its hand to block it, only to find its body completely out of control, its arms unbearably heavy, as if filled with lead balls, unable to move.

Instantly, its pupils dilated, the whites overtaking the entire eye.

In an instant.

A white sword light speared through its brow, shattering inside its head.

At this moment, it seemed to hear the crackling sound of explosions inside its head.

"Whoosh---"

Then, the sound of something cutting through the air resounded again fiercely, like a hot knife through butter, slicing past the White Ape’s neck, immediately followed by a blood-red liquid spraying out, drawing a perfect arc in the air, splashing on the ground, dyeing it red.

"Gulp--"

At this moment, all that was left of the White Ape’s body was its torso, the head rolling repeatedly on the ground, in its vision, clearly seeing its own body standing on the ground, just missing a head.

"My... my... my... head?" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"I... I... I... am dead!"

The White Ape was dead.

Its head was sliced off by Xu Ran just like the demon monkeys it considered ants, cutting it down and letting it roll onto the ground.

At this time.

A gust of wind blew past.

The head of the White Ape on the ground rolled like flowing water towards the path entering the Great Mountain, slowly gathering together with the heads of its demon monkeys, the only difference being, the White Ape’s head was the largest!

...

In the moment the White Ape’s head fell, the entire Great Wilderness Border Village was engulfed in silence.

All eyes widened in disbelief, standing dumbfounded in the place, watching the White Ape’s head rolling unceasingly.

Just now, the White Ape that viewed them as ants, that omnipotent Great Demon, was effortlessly beheaded by Xu Ran with one sword.

This scene, they seemed to have seen it before, happening just a month ago, the White Ape, and King Mountain then, bore no difference, both were the lost souls under Xu Ran’s sword.

"Wonderful!"

No one knows how long it lasted in silence, finally, someone in the crowd called out joyfully.

With this call, the entire Great Wilderness Border Village was plunged into immense excitement.

This meant that this crisis had been completely eliminated.

"The White Ape just died like that, the scene of its bullying arrogance hasn’t yet dispersed!"

"This Xu Ran’s power is terrifying; the White Ape was resolved with just one sword!"

"That one sword was soul-shattering; everything before it seemed like tofu!"

"How is it that through so many crises, each time it ends with Xu Ran’s Immortal Sword, does this have a limit?"

"Xu Ran is truly the savior of our Great Wilderness Border Village!"

...

The villagers of Great Wilderness Border Village weren’t sparing with their praise, loudly declaring and lauding Xu Ran’s humanitarian deeds, crafting him into a saintly figure.

However, as the most respected person in Great Wilderness Border Village, Old Qi, at this moment, shook his head, looked helplessly at the crowd, then lowered his head and walked away.

Old Qi’s action left all the villagers at a loss.

They, of course, understood what Old Qi meant.

They had to acknowledge, when the White Ape just entered the village, they were still considering handing Xu Ran over to save their own lives.

In the end, Xu Binghu and the Peregrine Falcon risked their lives, buying time until Xu Ran awakened, only then did everyone remain safe and sound.

Just now, although expressing gratitude towards Xu Ran in their loud praises, more so, they wanted the matter to simply pass.

But Old Qi’s action left them ashamed.

At that time.

Xu Binghu, Lian Ji, and the Peregrine Falcon slowly descended from the air, the golden threads woven into a net dissipated instantly, while they also looked at Xu Ran in disbelief, everything that had just taken place was utterly surreal.

"Wife, pinch me, see if I’m dreaming?!"

Lian Ji lightly tapped Xu Binghu, giggling, "What are you saying?"

Xu Binghu knew very well that the White Ape was definitely insurmountable for them, like a Great Mountain. Just now, being able to hold the White Ape off for that long was purely luck, and previously, when accidentally entering a village, he had unwittingly absorbed some of the mist there.

This mist happened to protect him, the Innate Qi in his body kept him hanging on to the last breath, otherwise, he would have reported to King Yama in the Underworld long ago.

Because of this, he understood just how powerful Xu Ran was now, taking down the White Ape’s life easily with just one sword.

The Peregrine Falcon at that time felt the same as Xu Binghu, even more shocked.

For the past year, it had been cultivating with Xu Ran, and it was that the Immortal Sword Skill was obtained by taking Xu Ran to that cliff for cultivation.

Always following Xu Ran around to cultivate, under the same conditions, the gap in cultivation between it and Xu Ran was so vast!

It put forth its best effort yet couldn’t resist the White Ape even a bit, whereas its master, Xu Ran, effortlessly took its head with only a single sword.

"No wonder you are the master!"

"It seems I need to cultivate even more diligently in the future!"

Little White, a spirit pet hatched by Xu Ran using Innate Qi, knew well what it was thinking.

He stroked Little White’s feathers, saying casually, "It’s alright now!"

Having just said this, Little White’s stomach growled.

Xu Binghu laughed, "Looks like Little White is hungry." Then his own stomach growled too.

"Since everyone is hungry, let’s go home, I’ll cook!"

Lian Ji decided, and the three plus the Peregrine Falcon, under the crowd’s guilty gaze, walked home in unison.
