Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 135 - 136: Celestial Ape’s Departure

The Celestial Ape’s chest kept flashing with light. Chu Linfeng once again exerted effort to pull the Heaven-Slaying Demon Sword out of its body, pushing the Earth Star Pill within him to its extreme. This time, the Demon Sword seemed to move a bit.

Seeing some progress, Chu Linfeng got motivated and pulled harder. The Celestial Ape’s body trembled and roared each time he pulled out a little, clearly enduring immense pain.

Time passed bit by bit, and Chu Linfeng was sweating profusely. More than half of the Chaos Qi within him was consumed, with only the sword’s tip remaining inside.

Meanwhile, a part of the Chaos Qi in his palm had been corroded away, and a trace of Demonic Qi traveled directly from his arm to his Dantian.

This discovery was alarming. Yet, it was the crucial moment; quitting would mean all previous efforts were wasted. "Damn it! Get out of here for me!"

Despite using all his strength, he still couldn’t pull it out entirely. Chu Linfeng felt on the verge of physical exhaustion.

At this moment, the Celestial Ape suddenly said, "Thank you, my little master. Step aside for a moment; I’ll handle the rest myself!"

Hearing this, Chu Linfeng felt relieved, as if he was hearing the most beautiful music. He immediately performed Shift Form and Shadow and quickly hid in a corner of the cave.

The Celestial Ape seemed to be in extreme pain, its enormous body trembling. Chu Linfeng knew it would suffer severe damage pulling out the Heaven-Slaying Demon Sword, watching intently lest he missed any exciting part.

The roar from the Celestial Ape’s mouth was noticeably weaker than before. Accompanied by a heart-wrenching scream, Chu Linfeng saw the Heaven-Slaying Demon Sword gradually emerging.

With a swoosh, the Heaven-Slaying Demon Sword was finally expelled from the Celestial Ape’s body using its Star Power, shooting towards the rock wall of the cave and quickly disappearing within it.

Chu Linfeng clearly saw many black auras suddenly appear around the stone wall, which began to dissolve, revealing the sword’s body.

A huge gap appeared in the Celestial Ape’s chest at this moment, with blood continuously pouring out, it was a horrifying sight that shocked Chu Linfeng.

"Are you okay?" Chu Linfeng asked softly. Although the crisis seemed over, ignorance about whether it might turn on him kept him cautious.

"I won’t die yet. This damned Demon Sword has tormented me for ten thousand years, but now I’m finally free. Thank you, my new master!" The Celestial Ape then transformed into human form, an appearance resembling an old man.

Though his chest was still covered in blood, a hole as large as a fist exposed visible internal organs.

Such formidable resilience was indeed amazing, thought Chu Linfeng.

"Don’t call me master, Lin Feng dares not accept that title! How do you plan to handle the Demon Sword?" Chu Linfeng regained his Heart Spirit and asked.

"The Heaven-Slaying Demon Sword is not an ordinary object; I must take it back to prevent problems if it falls into Dugu Demon Venerable’s hands again. Are you alright, master? I noticed quite a bit of Demonic Qi entered your body, and how come you possess Chaos Qi?" The old man form of the Celestial Ape asked.

After speaking, the Celestial Ape waved its hands, and the Heaven-Slaying Demon Sword lodged in the stone wall came directly to its hand and then vanished. Chu Linfeng knew it must be placed in his Storage Ring, although strangely, he didn’t have a Storage Ring.

Chu Linfeng didn’t want to inquire more since this being was a formidable expert in the past, some things are better left unknown. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Chaos Qi? I don’t know how it appeared; it’s just that this power is a bit stronger than Star Power, but it absorbs much slower." Chu Linfeng couldn’t explain, though perhaps this guy knew about Sword Spirit Yue’er but hadn’t asked him yet.

"Chaos Qi is indeed rare; I didn’t expect the master to possess it, truly hard to believe." The Celestial Ape said, with the blood on its chest having stopped flowing, albeit its appearance was alarming.

"Is your injury okay? I currently can’t sense the Demonic Qi entering me; perhaps it’s been refined by Chaos Qi. What’s behind that Stone Gate?"

Chu Linfeng didn’t want much delay; he knew the Celestial Ape’s previous roar must have been heard by Yang Rui outside, leaving them worried and possibly rushing in any moment.

"These injuries will recover over a few years, but I doubt I can regain my former strength. No worries; once you reach Canglan Ancient Land, I’ll surprise you." The Celestial Ape said, seeming indifferent to its wounds.

"Canglan Ancient Land? Are you saying you’re going to Canglan Ancient Land?" Chu Linfeng asked in surprise.

"Yes, did you see this Teleportation Gate behind me? This is the gateway to Canglan Ancient Land. Sadly, it can be used only once; otherwise, you could be teleported there in the future, master."

Chu Linfeng grew more confused, "Only once? What do you mean? Explain clearly, please."

The Celestial Ape took out a palm-sized stone emitting strong energy fluctuations, which Chu Linfeng recognized as resembling upper-grade Star Stone but even stronger.

Might this be top-grade Star Stone? Just as Chu Linfeng intended to ask, the Celestial Ape said, "Unfortunately, I only have this one Star Stone Crystal; if I had two, perhaps this Teleportation Gate can be preserved.

This Teleportation Gate was originally brought from Canglan Ancient Land by me when I suffered severe injuries, seeking a secluded place for recovery. Who knew, upon teleporting, even the gate came along, arriving here.

I once tried to exit, but just as I was about to leave the cave entrance, an invisible force pulled me back, the specifics of which remained unclear, but it originated from the Teleportation Gate.

This Teleportation Gate requires two Star Stone Crystals for one transmission. Regrettably, I have only one left, so though I can teleport, the gate would be destroyed."

Chu Linfeng felt he was not lied to and asked, "Why do you insist on returning? Wouldn’t staying here be better?"

"I too wanted to stay here, but some matters require my return. Ten thousand years passed; since I escaped, others can too, besides, I must take the Demon Sword back for proper handling, master, please forgive my selfishness." The Celestial Ape replied helplessly.

"No problem, go handle your matters; I will visit Canglan Ancient Land eventually and reunite then." Chu Linfeng smiled, though feeling a bit speechless, having gone through great effort to save him just to have him leave?

But it’s reasonable, since returning favors shouldn’t be expected; he wasn’t that sort of person.
