Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 216 - 210: The Demon Ape Refuses to Submit, Little Sister-in-law Appears

When Lin Yuan mentioned gatekeeping, it hit the Dark Demon Ape's sore spot.

Because this Dark Demon Ape's family, for eighteen generations, had been gatekeepers for a supreme being from the Mysterious World.

His father was a gatekeeper, his grandfather was a gatekeeper, his great-grandfather was also a gatekeeper....

No one knows if the gatekeeping job is somehow formalized, but it just kept being passed down.

By the time it reached his generation, that supreme being suddenly disappeared, and he was born into unemployment!

The ancestral job was gone, so the Dark Demon Ape descended into this world, trying his luck to see if he could advance his cultivation further.

That stone staff in his hand is actually a staff used to brace doors.

After the supreme being disappeared, the dojo was divided by disciples, and his father, old and weak at the time, couldn't compete with the other disciples and only got that door-bracing staff.

Now, just the mention of gatekeeping makes the Dark Demon Ape furious.

These days, finding a job is tough, even a gatekeeping job can be lost.

"You want me to gatekeep? You're not worthy!"

The Dark Demon Ape swung the stone staff, which carried a terrifying aura, smashing towards Lin Yuan.

The staff broke through the void, and in an instant, it was less than five meters above Lin Yuan's head.

The energy carried on the stone staff had become tangible, with black energy rolling continuously, making one shiver.

No, it should be said it made the crocodile shiver.

Lin Yuan was not afraid at all; instead, the Mud Crocodile hid behind Lin Yuan, tail between its legs.

If not for holding tightly, the Mud Crocodile would have been scared witless by now.

Lin Yuan squinted slightly, and in the next moment, a large red umbrella appeared above his head.

The Qiankun Umbrella emerged.

With tremendous resilience, the Qiankun Umbrella firmly blocked the stone staff's strike, only slightly denting and then quickly bouncing back.

The Dark Demon Ape's resentful blow did not harm Lin Yuan in the slightest.

A serious expression appeared on the Dark Demon Ape's monkey face.

Before he could react, the Qiankun Umbrella began to slowly rise.

The Dark Demon Ape seemed unconvinced, gritted his teeth, and used all his strength to press the staff down.

The Dark Demon Ape was very powerful, but unfortunately, his opponent was Lin Yuan!

The disparity in strength was evident; the Dark Demon Ape exerted all his strength, his face turning as red as a monkey's buttocks.

But still, the Qiankun Umbrella held, rising bit by bit.

Though the Mud Crocodile could not defeat the Dark Demon Ape, it clearly understood how to capitalize on others' influence.

Seizing the moment, it mustered all its strength and whipped the Dark Demon Ape with its tail, sending him flying.

Lin Yuan took a step forward, Zhong Kui's Demon-Slaying Sword already in hand, as the crimson "Annihilation" energy erupted, forming a terrifying energy tide.

The Dark Demon Ape had just climbed up when the energy tide was already upon him.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the Dark Demon Ape was sent flying again.

Lin Yuan was not like the Mud Crocodile; this strike was more than just sending the Dark Demon Ape flying.

The Annihilation energy acted upon the Dark Demon Ape, leaving a massive sword wound on his body.

At the same time, the Power of Annihilation continued to corrode and invade along the wound.

"Roar!"

"Roar! Roar!"

The Dark Demon Ape let out a furious roar, with the Power of Rules surging on his body, as he utilized his rule of power at that moment.

Dark Night Twin.

The Power of Rules activated, and not far from the Dark Demon Ape, another Dark Demon Ape appeared.

Similar to the legendary single breath creating three cleanses.

Using dark energy, a clone was reconstructed.

However, this clone only possessed eighty percent of the main body's strength.

The two Dark Demon Apes began to flank Lin Yuan from left and right, violent energy spreading, as if trying to tear him apart completely.

Scarlet energy and dark energy continuously clashed, with visible shockwaves erupting.

Even the Tier Five Mud Crocodile, if present at the center of the battle, would risk injury.

One must admit, the Dark Demon Ape's strength is formidable.

Also, being a Tier Five Evil Spirit adept in close combat, fighting him was quite a spectacle.

Among all the Tier Five Evil Spirits encountered by Lin Yuan, the Dark Demon Ape was second only to the Great Black Heaven.

In fact, Lin Yuan felt that given time, should the Dark Demon Ape grow, his power would be on par with the Great Black Heaven.

He had the potential to be a valuable ally.

By any means necessary, the Dark Demon Ape must be subdued.

Lin Yuan battled the Dark Demon Ape for about a dozen or so minutes, the roars from the Dark Demon Ape grew gradually weaker from strong to feeble.

Soon, the Dark Demon Ape's body was sent flying out of the battle storm by Lin Yuan.

As for his rule clone, it was directly obliterated by Lin Yuan.

The Dark Demon Ape leaned against Peach Mountain, covered in wounds, with blood pooling beneath him into a small puddle.

Seeing Lin Yuan approach, the Dark Demon Ape struggled to stand, wanting to fight him once more.

Alas, his fighting spirit remained, but his body could no longer sustain him.

Now, the biggest movement the Dark Demon Ape could manage was to bat an eyelid.

The Dark Demon Ape is strong, but unfortunately, Lin Yuan is unbeatable below Tier Four.

There's no time to waste.

At this moment, the Dark Demon Ape had already lost its ability to resist. Now was the perfect time to control him.

Lin Yuan activated the ability of the Yin Law Department, and the earth-yellow energy shrouded the Dark Demon Ape, who subconsciously wanted to resist.

However, he was powerless to resist.

The energy of the Yin Law Department began to connect with the energy inside the Dark Demon Ape, as chains of Yin Law appeared on the ape's body.

However, the Yin Law chains on the Dark Demon Ape seemed different from those on the Mud Crocodile back then.

Back then, the Yin Law chains on the Mud Crocodile were earth-yellow, while the chains on the Dark Demon Ape were a mix of black and yellow.

"Crack!"

"Crack! Crack!"

At this moment, the black and yellow mixed Yin Law chains on the Dark Demon Ape shattered inch by inch.

With the shattering of the chains, Lin Yuan instantly understood.

Although the Dark Demon Ape's body was powerless to resist, his willpower still resisted.

This resistance, derived from willpower, was too strong, causing the Yin Law chains to fail to form.

"Dark Demon Ape, do you want to die?"

"If you don't submit, there's only one road to death for you!" Lin Yuan shouted fiercely.

However, the Dark Demon Ape was not afraid in the slightest, his entire being still brimming with fighting spirit.

Although he was not Lin Yuan's match, he was defiant, refusing to submit even to death.

"Master, this disobedient creature is useless to keep."

"Might as well let me eat him!" Mud Crocodile wagged its tail at Lin Yuan, showing a flattering look.

Look at this spineless thing, where is this a crocodile? It's clearly a lapdog.

Mud Crocodile was spineless, but there was another one with a backbone.

But this one with a backbone wouldn't submit even in death!

Looking at the Dark Demon Ape, he really wouldn't submit even if he died!

If he didn't cooperate voluntarily, the Yin Law Department couldn't control him successfully. Even if forcibly controlled, there would be a risk of losing control in the future.

One must know, Lin Yuan intended to take him back to Peng City, and there couldn't be even a tiny risk.

If he lost control, with the Dark Demon Ape's combat power, it would be a great disaster for Peng City.

Uncertain how many survivors would die under his club.

As it stood, if the Dark Demon Ape refused to submit, killing him was the only path.

By killing him, Lin Yuan could absorb his Power of Rules to enhance his own strength.

The Dark Demon Ape's flesh and blood could be fed to the Mud Crocodile, greatly enhancing its strength as well.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan raised Zhong Kui's Demon-Slaying Sword in his hand, intending to end the Dark Demon Ape.

People of the Dragon Country always had a special affection for monkeys, especially those with strong combat power.

Now about to kill the Dark Demon Ape, Lin Yuan really felt a bit reluctant.

"You better think it over!"

"Cultivation is not easy; if I strike with this sword, you will truly die."

"Submit to me, serve me, and you can still keep your life!" Lin Yuan made one last attempt to persuade the Dark Demon Ape to submit.

However, the Dark Demon Ape remained arrogantly proud, turning his head and closing his eyes, ignoring Lin Yuan completely.

With a posture of 'kill if you must, chop if you must.'

Lin Yuan thrust his sword forward, piercing the Dark Demon Ape's heart.

With this stab, the Dark Demon Ape was bound to die.

However, just as the sword tip touched the Dark Demon Ape's chest, a gush of blood spurted forth.

At the very moment he was about to take the Dark Demon Ape's life, Zhong Kui's Demon-Slaying Sword could not penetrate even an inch further.

A delicate jade hand clamped down on the blade of Zhong Kui's Demon-Slaying Sword.

First came the delicate jade hand, followed by a slender waist, and a voluptuous chest…

A woman clad in a black priest's robe appeared out of thin air before Lin Yuan.

For a moment, Lin Yuan stood dumbfounded.

"Long time no see!" The woman's voice was incomparably soft, making Lin Yuan's heart melt.

"Little..."

"Little sister-in-law!" Lin Yuan's voice trembled slightly.

Little sister-in-law!

The one who appeared before Lin Yuan was none other than the long-lost little sister-in-law.

"Holy Mother."

"The Holy Mother has returned."

The Dark Demon Ape opened his eyes, looking at the one who saved him, and with difficulty, opened his mouth to utter.

Back then, in the Deceit Village, after the little sister-in-law died, she inadvertently received the inheritance of a supreme being.

The last time she saved Lin Yuan, absorbing all the demonic energy and flames from his body, when she was about to lose control, she received the call of that supreme being.

The little sister-in-law disappeared last time because she entered the Mysterious World, completely accepting the entire inheritance left by that supreme being.

The little sister-in-law now stood as the heir to that supreme being.

The name of that supreme being was the Rebirth Saint Mother.

The ancestors of the Dark Demon Ape from eighteen generations ago were gatekeepers for the Rebirth Saint Mother.

Though the Dark Demon Ape had never seen the Rebirth Saint Mother, her aura was engraved in his DNA.

Upon sensing the aura of the little sister-in-law, the Dark Demon Ape knew it was the Rebirth Saint Mother who had saved him.
