72: Chapter 72: Killing the Explosive Ape King!
Lin Bai and the Explosive Ape King locked eyes, fury smoldering in their gaze.
Having slain countless monsters from the Explosive Ape King’s clan, Lin Bai was unlikely to be let off by the Ape King.
But if Lin Bai didn’t kill the Explosive Ape King, he would have no chance of leaving this canyon.
One sought revenge, the other survival.
“Cold-blooded Sword Strike!”
Lin Bai was the first to act, his crimson sword light coalescing into a blood-red star beam, striking swiftly toward the Explosive Ape King.
The Explosive Ape King couldn’t speak, but his roaring conveyed his anger.
With one punch, he shattered Lin Bai’s sword aura.
After shattering the sword aura, the Explosive Ape King stepped forward, lifting a stone the size of ten thousand pounds nearby and hurled it at Lin Bai.
Lin Bai’s eyes flashed with cold light, wielding his sword to cut the oncoming stone into pieces.
The giant stone exploded into pieces right in front of Lin Bai, and before the fragments could hit the ground, a colossal fist emerged from the shards, striking towards Lin Bai’s chest.
Extreme Shadow Step!”
A residual image remained in place, while Lin Bai’s body had already moved ten meters back.
With a thunderous explosion, the air split apart, deafeningly loud.
The Explosive Ape King’s sudden punch blasted Lin Bai’s residual image into fragments.
Luckily, I found a body technique martial skill before coming to Luoyan Mountain, otherwise, I would not have been able to avoid the Ape King’s punch.”
“Had this punch truly hit me, it surely would have shattered my internal organs.”
“Demon Beasts at the True Martial Sixth Level are indeed far stronger than Warriors at the same level!”
“I must not let my guard down!”
Lin Bai muttered thusly in his heart.
Against the Explosive Ape King, this was probably the second-most terrifying creature Lin Bai had come across in his life.
The first was the Thunder Frog of Lei Ze.
“Falling Meteor Moon Slash!”
As soon as the Ape King’s punch landed, dispersing its power, Lin Bai immediately used the Extreme Shadow Step, turning into several residual images and swiftly approached the Explosive Ape King.
His sword pointed to the sky, then fiercely slashed down.
The Falling Meteor Moon Slash fell again, the boundless terrifying force seemed like an apocalypse descending.
Lin Bai’s sword dug deep into the chest of the Explosive Ape King, leaving a gash that cut through flesh and bone!
The Explosive Ape King roared furiously, swung its fists of steel, and struck at Lin Bai with vengeful rage.
Every punch it threw left a three-inch hole in the rock wall as if it were smashing through tofu.
“Heavenly Killing Lone Star!”
After being relentlessly attacked by the Explosive Ape King’s dozens of punches, Lin Bai drove his sword straight into the Ape King’s left arm.
This sword aura sealed the deal, severing the Explosive Ape King’s left arm.
The Explosive Ape King cried out in agony, retreating in unbearable pain.
“Good opportunity, now it’s my turn!”
Just as the Explosive Ape King retreated, Lin Bai’s face lit up with joy as he brandished his sword and charged forward.
A sword light, symbolizing the opening of heaven and earth, descended.
The terrifying power shattered the surrounding air, seemingly even making the void tremble.
“Star-Slaying Sword Skill, third style, Crossing Starry Sky!”
With one sword strike, a catastrophic disaster befell!
The face of the Explosive Ape King hardened with rage when he looked up to see the sword descending, his anger dissipated, replaced by a look of fear.
One sword strike sliced half of the Explosive Ape King’s head off.
The Explosive Ape King roared once more.
Suddenly at this moment, the spiritual energy surrounding them rushed uncontrollably into the body of the Explosive Ape King.
Lin Bai was taken aback.
“Be careful, Lin Bai, the Explosive Ape King is about to self-destruct!”
Sun Qian warned him at this time.
“Self-destruct the Dantian?”
Lin Bai said in utter surprise.
The Dantian of a Demon Beast differed from that of a Warrior.
Apart from gathering demonic power, a Demon Beast’s Dantian could also self-destruct.
And the power of a self-destruct is extremely horrifying.
Just like the self-destruction of the Explosive Ape King right now, its power would be enough to flatten this canyon!
“Did you ask my permission before deciding to self-destruct?”
Lin Bai gave a cold snort.
At this moment, a faint will diffused from Lin Bai’s body.
Every dust particle, blade of grass, flower, gust of air around him morphed into a sharp sword at this moment!
“Sword Intention, Falling Meteor Moon Slash!”
Executing Extreme Shadow Step, Lin Bai quickly approached the Explosive Ape King, which was building up a spiritual aura in preparation for self-destruction.
A heavy sword strike descended.
This sword stroke, as if it carried the might of a divine spirit, landed on the Explosive Ape King, cutting it in half from head to toe!
“Martial skills backed up by Sword Intention are indeed twice as strong as when they’re normally used!”
Seeing his attack directly dividing the body of the True Martial Sixth Level Explosive Ape King into two, Lin Bai couldn’t help being overjoyed in his heart.
The power of Sword Intention is too strong.
The Sword Skill under the bolster of Sword Intention is more powerful.
If Lin Bai had normally used the Falling Meteor Moon Slash, he would have only managed to send the Explosive Ape King flying, unable to kill it.
But with the bolster of Sword Intent, he directly cut the Explosive Ape King in half from head to toe.
“I wonder if I can break into the True Martial Fourth Level by devouring the vitality of the Explosive Ape King!”
The Devouring Sword spirit is like a black hole, capable of accommodating everything in the world!
Lin Bai inducted the vitality of the True Martial Sixth Level Explosive Ape King into his body.
There was a crisp sound.
Lin Bai’s martial cultivation officially broke through to the True Martial Fourth Level.
“That was close, I almost couldn’t break through.”
“With my current True Martial Fourth Level cultivation, I’m afraid I need to absorb a demon beast of around the True Martial Seventh Level in order to quickly improve my cultivation.”
“But dealing with such an creature will be a bit troublesome for me now.”
Lin Bai said with a bit of vexation.
Lin Bai had just killed a True Martial Sixth Level Demonic Beast with his True Martial Triple Level cultivation, almost completely using up all his hidden power.
If it was one more beast, Lin Bai would be in danger.
“If only I can sell the Demon Blood.”
“But I don’t have any Spiritual Stones right now!”
Lin Bai had just thought of an idea, but immediately overthrew it.
Immediately after, Lin Bai swung his sword and killed all five remaining Explosive Apes in the canyon.
He wiped out this Explosive Ape Demon group completely.
“To flatten a True Martial Sixth Level Demon group with an individual’s power, too amazing!”
“Such strength could make it to the top even in the Outer Sect.”
Sun Qian and the other two Sword Alliance Warriors ran towards Lin Bai with joy on their faces.
They all thought they were surely doomed today, being besieged by Explosive Apes and betrayed by Huang Feng, it was already a checkmate.
But Lin Bai saved them against all odds.
“Lin Bai, you are great!” Sun Qian ran to Lin Bai’s side and said joyfully.
“Just got lucky.” Lin Bai flashed a smile.
“Lucky?” Sun Qian showed a bitter smile, looking back at the mountain of dead Explosive Apes.
If this was all luck, how terrifying would Lin Bai be when he gets serious.
However, just at this moment, the stone wall blocking the entrance of the canyon was suddenly smashed.
Thousands of shards were showered into the canyon.
Lin Bai fixed his gaze on the entrance of the canyon as a group of warriors marched in pompously.
“The Divine Alliance Warriors!”
