Starting with Check-In Sacred Body of the Ancients-Chapter 55: The Leeks Are Growing Well, Primordial Remnant Species Demon Ape
Chapter 55 - 55: The Leeks Are Growing Well, Primordial Remnant Species Demon Ape
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze sized up Ji Xuan as if looking at meat on a chopping block.
And Ji Xuan's line of sight also glanced at Jun Xiaoyao, a hint of solemnity hidden in the depths of his eyes.
Jun Xiaoyao was entirely enveloped in immortal radiance and mist, making it difficult to see him clearly.
But that hazy feeling made Ji Xuan even more apprehensive.
Afterward, his gaze shifted to Jun Zhangjian at the side, and a playful look appeared at the corners of his lips.
Ji Xuan wasn't sure how he would fare against Jun Xiaoyao.
But if he encountered Jun Zhangjian, Jun Xuehuang, and the others, Ji Xuan was still confident.
"I really want to rub Ji Xuan's face into the ground!"
Seeing that faint playful look at the corners of Ji Xuan's lips, Jun Zhangjian's face was shrouded in gloom.
This fellow didn't dare to provoke Jun Xiaoyao, so he turned to provoke him instead.
"Calm yourself. We'll talk after we reach the Supreme Secret Trove," Jun Xiaoyao said, his gaze calm.
If this Ji Xuan was a bit more honest, Jun Xiaoyao might only seize his fortuitous opportunity and not do anything else to him.
But if Ji Xuan insisted on flaunting himself in front of him, then Jun Xiaoyao could only teach him a lesson.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao and the others thoroughly ventured deeper into the Taihuang Forest.
Naturally, leading the way were top prodigies like them from these immortal orthodoxies.
Following them were the prodigies from top-tier orthodoxies and first-rate powers.
The chief disciple of the Dao Extremity Heavenly Sect also set out, but he followed closely behind Jun Xiaoyao and the others.
Because previously, an elder from the Dao Extremity Heavenly Sect had warned that the safest way to avoid trouble was to stay close to the Jun family Divine Son.
Roar!
A Ghost-Faced Man-Bear, contaminated by the grey mist, tilted its head back and let out a roar.
It stood upright, a full three zhang tall, like a small black hill, its baleful aura oppressive.
Its bear claws lashed out, directly swatting several Divine Bridge Realm disciples from major powers into meat paste.
But in an instant, a majestic golden magical power palm print struck from the front.
With a loud boom, this rather powerful Ghost-Faced Man-Bear also turned into meat paste.
Jun Xiaoyao's expression was calm as he withdrew his hand and said, "Continue forward."
Jun Zhangjian and the others were relatively composed; after all, they already knew Jun Xiaoyao's strength.
But the chief disciple of the Dao Extremity Heavenly Sect, who was following behind, secretly gulped, his eyes filled with shock.
"Truly worthy of being the Jun family Divine Son. A Ghost-Faced Man-Bear that ordinary Divine Bridge Realm cultivators find difficult to deal with, he killed it with a single palm," this chief disciple marveled.
Of course, it wasn't just Jun Xiaoyao whose methods were clean and decisive.
It was the same for Ji Xuan's side.
He also attacked casually. On his right arm, sacred runes were imprinted, and divine radiance bloomed.
With a casual push of his palm or a flick of his finger, streams of radiant light shot out, directly tearing apart the fierce demonic beasts in front, effortlessly.
"The Ji family's Little Saint also possesses an invincible bearing, capable of suppressing powerful fierce beasts with a mere wave of his hand."
"Of course, Ji Xuan's right arm is fused with a segment of a Saint King's hand bone. He doesn't even need to empower it with martial arts divine abilities; a casual palm strike carries heaven-shaking might."
Many geniuses from first-rate powers marveled.
Prodigies born in immortal orthodoxies had different treatment indeed; they could even fuse with a Saint King's hand bone.
Of course, besides these prodigies from immortal orthodoxies.
Some stunning dark horses also appeared.
"Huh, who is that cloaked person? His strength is astonishingly strong!"
Some cultivators also noticed a figure wearing a cloak and a hood.
He didn't reveal his true appearance, but with a casual punch, azure dragon light patterns surged out, easily shattering the fierce beasts in front.
This surprised many people; they hadn't expected such a dark horse to appear.
"Tsk tsk, the leek has indeed appeared. It seems to be developing well, a pleasing growth. It hasn't disappointed me..."
Over here, Jun Xiaoyao sensed something, and his peripheral vision noticed the cloaked figure.
He immediately knew it was Xiao Chen.
But Jun Xiaoyao made no move.
He knew that Xiao Chen wanted to hide his identity, avoid being discovered by him, then pretend to be weak while being strong (扮猪吃虎 - act like a pig to eat the tiger), seize fortuitous encounters in the secret realm, and finally have his strength surge, then crush him.
But...
The ideal is plump, but reality is skinny.
Xiao Chen thought he was on the second level, while Jun Xiaoyao was on the first.
Little did he know, Jun Xiaoyao was already on the fifth level.
The entire situation was under Jun Xiaoyao's control.
"Xiao Chen, ah, Xiao Chen, I'll give you one last chance for your delusions. When it's time to harvest the leeks, don't say I didn't give you any face at all."
A faint arc appeared at the corners of Jun Xiaoyao's lips.
Over here, under the hood, Xiao Chen's face was resolute, carrying a faint excitement.
His chance to rise was finally coming.
"Jun Xiaoyao, wait until I fuse with the ancient dragon bones and cultivate the Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Art to great accomplishment. Then I will trample you underfoot in front of everyone!"
The battle continued.
The cultivators who charged into the Taihuang Forest and the demonic beasts within the Taihuang Forest engaged in a bloody slaughter.
Apart from a few like Jun Xiaoyao who could sweep through all obstacles.
The prodigies from other major powers, as well as some rogue cultivators, all suffered heavy casualties.
"We are simply not on the same level as the successors of those immortal orthodoxies."
A rogue cultivator said bitterly, looking at the transcendent figure already deep within the forest, sighing endlessly.
Jun Xiaoyao was like a white-robed divine king, possessing an invincible spirit. All demonic beasts before him couldn't last more than two or three moves.
Not long after, Jun Xiaoyao and the others were the first to venture into the deepest part of the Taihuang Forest.
Looking out, in the depths of the forest, a huge, pitch-black rift lay horizontally, like a wound on the earth.
Strange grey mist emanated from it.
Jun Zhangjian and the others all protected their bodies with magical power, isolating the grey mist.
However, this consumed a great deal of energy.
And within the grey mist, they also faintly felt a suppressive force.
But Jun Xiaoyao was different; he didn't protect his body with magical power at all.
Because he was a Desolate Ancient Saintly Body, extremely firm and yang, impervious to all evil. Even his blood was radiant gold.
The vital energy and physique of the Saintly Body had extremely strong resistance to various evil and yin energies.
"It seems that Supreme Secret Trove is beneath this great rift in the earth. However, it seems to have undergone some strange changes," Jun Xiaoyao murmured.
Just as his voice fell.
Roars were heard again.
A terrifying black ape, entirely pitch-black, with a single horn on its head and fleshy wings on its back, leaped over. With a stomp of its feet, it collapsed a cliff dozens of zhang high.
"It's a Primordial Remnant Species, a Demon Ape!"
Some cultivators who had ventured deep into this area couldn't help but exclaim.
Primordial Remnant Species possessed a trace of bloodline passed down from ancient times, their strength far surpassing that of ordinary demonic beasts.
And this Demon Ape, its baleful aura surging to the heavens, its strength had already reached the Unity Realm.
Moreover, in the same realm, Primordial Remnant Species were stronger than humans.
This Demon Ape, even Unity Realm prodigies from immortal orthodoxies would not find it easy to deal with.
And most importantly, Jun Xiaoyao's current realm was only at the Divine Bridge Realm.
Roar!
The Primordial Remnant Species Demon Ape let out a furious roar.
After being contaminated by the grey mist, its ape eyes were scarlet. Its already irritable temperament became even more as if it had entered a berserk state, charging towards Jun Xiaoyao.
It toppled several mountain ridges along the way.
Everyone's gaze was tightly focused.
And in the void above the Taihuang Forest.
The Heaven Observing Mirror also reflected the scene outside the Supreme Secret Trove.
"Your Jun family's Divine Son is probably in trouble," Ji Bangyin, the elder of the Ji family, said with a slight smile.
