I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 2099 Red Ape Clan

Chen Lin looked at what was in front of him with surprise and doubt.

He was in a grand hall, beneath which lay an unknown depth of blood, his weak body floating on the surface.

And that's why he came here.

It was because after the big bird threw him into the blood river, a wave of blood appeared and swept him into a hole on the hillside. He then fell into the underground space and was carried by the underground blood river to this place.

This is what it means to be destined to survive.

Chen Lin tried to twist his head to check.

The main hall was very large, but there was nothing there except a huge statue in the very center, a golden giant ape with its fists clenched and looking up at the sky with a roar.

The statue exudes a terrifying sense of oppression and radiates a palpable killing intent.

Chen Lin, however, felt a sense of familiarity.

He desperately wanted to get closer to find out, but his body was immobile, and he could only float on the blood, waiting for the blood to carry him to the vicinity of the statue.

Time passed little by little.

Perhaps due to the drying up of the Blood River outside, the blood underground was becoming less and less, and it stopped flowing altogether. Chen Lin was stuck to the rock wall, unable to move at all.

A feeling of hunger rose up.

It grew stronger and stronger, gradually becoming unbearable. With no other option, Chen Lin could only drink a mouthful of blood.

What happened next surprised him.

After drinking the blood from the Blood River, his hunger not only did not improve, but became even more intense. Moreover, the blood tasted very sweet to him, so he couldn't help but take another sip.

And then you can't stop.

Bite after bite.

Finally, he simply plunged his head into the river of blood, letting the blood flow into his mouth on its own.

At this moment, Chen Lin noticed.

After consuming large amounts of blood, his injuries began to heal, and his body grew rapidly.

It took about half an hour for the hole in my stomach to completely heal, the umbilical cord dried up, scabbed over, and fell off, and my whole body became golden and shiny.

He was overjoyed.

He drank even more frantically.

Gradually, Chen Lin became immersed in the changes in his body, forgetting about time and his mission, simply continuing to devour.

at last.

I do not know how long it has been.

After opening his mouth, he didn't drink any blood, but instead got a mouthful of mud before he suddenly came to his senses.

He rolled over.

I felt as light as a feather, and I stood up easily, feeling full of energy.

Look around.

The river of blood was gone; apart from some crimson stains in the soil, there was no longer any blood accumulation.

And himself.

Not only did its injuries heal, but its body grew to more than twice its original size, its skin turned pure gold, and it had a tuft of glowing golden fur on its chest.

Chen Lin clenched his fist.

A sense of power capable of piercing through everything arose spontaneously.

then.

He attempted to use supernatural powers and secret techniques.

But just like before, all energy is unusable.

He could clearly sense that this situation was not due to interface suppression, but simply that he was unable to use these methods.

This body possesses a kind of innate energy.

It is both the foundation of their race's survival and a natural cage, preventing them from using other forms of energy.

Unable to use his supernatural powers, Chen Lin began to worry about his future.

But he quickly regained his composure.

In any case, I've passed the first hurdle.

At least they survived.

The most urgent task is to figure out what the mission is.

Unlike the Life Treasure Chest and the Life Letter, there is no mission description. He is completely in the dark right now and can't just wander around like a headless fly.

Moved my body around.

After getting used to it, Chen Lin walked to the vicinity of the statue and looked around.

Then I discovered.

The statue is clutching an object in its hand, which looks like a token.

He immediately climbed up and reached into his fists, trying to retrieve the token.

But it didn't work out.

The token was very large and got stuck right inside the statue's fist. No matter how it was turned, it was no use; it always missed by just a little bit.

I tried a few more times.

After failing to find a solution, Chen Lin temporarily gave up and continued to check other areas.

But nothing more was found.

He jumped down from the statue and began to inspect other areas.

Following the underground passage and making more than a dozen turns, he finally found the hole where he had fallen. A ray of sunlight shone in, allowing him to finally feel some warmth in this world.

After adjusting to the light for a while.

Chen Lin found some large rocks, used them to elevate himself, jumped onto them, and cautiously stuck his head out to observe the situation.

A dead silence.

Without the Blood River and the large birds, the entire valley was quiet.

The corpses scattered all over the mountains and fields had all vanished without a trace, likely carried away by the birds, demonstrating the ferocity of the beasts in this world.

The ape's body is now very light.

A slight jump.

Chen Lin then jumped out of the cave.

Not daring to be too conspicuous, they continued to carefully observe the area, and only breathed a slight sigh of relief after confirming that there was nothing unusual in the distance.

Quickly exit the valley.

Following their memories, they found the approximate location of their 'mother', but the area within several miles was completely empty, without a single corpse in sight.

It seems his mother's body was also taken away.

Chen Lin sighed.

No matter what, she was his birth mother. He wanted to bury her properly, but he was not given the chance.

He immediately composed himself.

Expanding the search area to find clues, in order to figure out what kind of being could have wiped out his entire clan, it was definitely not just a deep-seated hatred.

This matter is of great importance.

He is now estimated to be the sole survivor of his entire race. If he runs out rashly without knowing who his enemies are, he will likely be discovered and will not escape death.

The key issue is that he doesn't possess any supernatural powers or magic, so he can't even change his appearance.

An hour later.

The highest point in the center of the mountain range.

Chen Lin stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up. He saw that all the buildings on the mountain, as well as the huge palace on the mountaintop shrouded in clouds and mist, had now been razed to the ground.

In some places, black smoke was billowing out, and sparks were being blown by the wind, making them flash.

His expression turned serious.

Throughout the entire mountain range, he did not see a single corpse of any other race, nor any unusual remains.

The corpses might have been carried away by large birds, but if it were a battle, there would have been some tattered clothing and weapons left behind. But the fact is, there were only club-shaped weapons everywhere, and no other items.

These specially made sticks were found on the hands of the surviving ape corpses, indicating that they were weapons specifically used by apes.

Chen Lin had his doubts.

The entire ape race was killed by just one or a few powerful individuals.

In this case.

He would be in even greater danger and must not be discovered.

I climbed the mountain and took a walk around.

He didn't find anything of value, but he did discover some books that hadn't been burned. They were very simple, but he couldn't read the writing on them and couldn't make out what they said.

This led Chen Lin to discover another challenge.

Language.

Because he was reincarnated, he doesn't have the original owner's memories, and the Life Treasure Chest didn't grant him the ability to naturally acquire the language of this world, making communication with the outside world a major problem.

Learning a completely unfamiliar language is not an easy task.

If all else fails, I'll just have to pretend I'm mute for now.

Chen Lin thought helplessly. Anyway, he was now a demon, so it was normal that he couldn't speak.

After spending several days searching the surrounding mountains without finding anything, Chen Lin returned to the underground hall carrying a huge metal rod.

This is the most unusual place; if we want to make any discoveries, we need to start from here.

We arrived in front of the statue.

Chen Lin climbed onto the arm, swung the metal rod, and slammed it down hard.

"boom!"

There was a muffled sound.

However, the statue's fist was completely undamaged, not even a single fragment fell off. Instead, it made Chen Lin's hand go numb, and the metal rod flew out of his hand.

"Can not be done."

Chen Lin frowned.

Based on normal circumstances, the mission prompt should be located where he arrives; it wouldn't make sense to have no prompt at all.

And this place is unique in the entire mountain range.

He jumped down, picked up the metal rod, and tried to bombard other parts of the statue. When that failed, Chen Lin bit his finger and let his golden blood drip onto the token.

This statue is of a golden giant ape, most likely a totem.

And since he is a descendant of the apes, with golden skin and golden blood, perhaps he can awaken that potential.

He had suspected this before.

I was just worried that using bloodline stimulation might cause uncontrollable changes, so I didn't try it immediately.

Just as Chen Lin had predicted.

After the golden blood dripped onto the token, the token immediately shone brightly, and the statue's eyes turned, shooting out two beams of golden light that enveloped its body.

He was immediately frozen in place.

Can't move at all.

immediately.

A series of images unfolded in his mind.

In every frame, countless giant apes are fighting against some white-clad figures. The battles are extremely fierce, and each time the giant apes are wiped out.

But these giant apes were fearless and none of them flinched or retreated.

The figure in white was very indistinct.

Chen Lin concentrated all his energy and could barely make out some outlines.

He discovered that these figures in white were all extremely handsome, and their every move exuded a unique ethereal quality, as if they were immortals descended to earth to vanquish demons and protect the righteous path.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

A series of killing sounds echoed in my mind.

This voice transcends language barriers, allowing for natural comprehension of its meaning, which made Chen Lin's blood boil.

An inexplicable emotion took over my thoughts.

Eyes red.

Chen Lin pounded his chest with both hands and roared to the sky, as if he had endless hatred accumulating in his heart and wanted to punch a hole in the sky.

It took a while for him to calm down.

The images in my mind slowly shattered.

"Could the giant ape race be demons?"

Chen Lin looked at his body, his expression shifting between light and dark.

Whether they are demons or not is irrelevant. What he is worried about is that demons are too weak in this realm and are being chased and beaten by so-called demon-slaying and righteous warriors, which would make his mission much more difficult.

However, Chen Lin did not sense any demonic aura on himself.

It's not a ghost.

The innate energy within his body primarily enhances his strength, granting him immense power; otherwise, he seems to possess no special abilities.

His agility and jumping ability are both instincts inherent to apes.

Put away distracting thoughts.

Chen Lin looked at the token.

At this moment, the light on the token was gradually fading, while at the same time generating a series of strange fluctuations, forming an inexplicable connection with him.

His eyes flashed.

Judging from the situation, this person has passed the assessment and received the token's approval.

Chen Lin did not move.

We stood on the statue's arm and waited to see what would happen next.

And they are ready to escape at any time.

He wasn't a pure giant ape; he didn't have that fearless spirit. For him, running away was a tactical retreat, a way to wait for a comeback, and it wasn't anything shameful.

There was no danger.

Once the light on the token completely faded, the statue's enormous fist slowly opened, and the token floated up on its own, arriving in front of Chen Lin.

Chen Lin tried touching it.

Immediately, a warm current flowed into my body through my fingers.

The token landed in his hand with a thud.

"Red Ape Clan".

"An indomitable spirit."

"The divine skill that splits heaven and earth!"

As the information entered his mind, Chen Lin gained some understanding of the situation.

This giant ape clan is called the Red Ape Clan, a branch of the demon race. However, in this world, the gods are revered above all else, and a campaign to exterminate demons is being launched.

Those white figures are the gods.

These self-proclaimed deities come from a place called the Heavenly Palace, which frequently sends heavenly gods down to earth to "eliminate demons and protect the righteous path," making all demons tremble with fear at the mere mention of their names.

But in fact.

This world is a place where demons and monsters live, and it has its own order. The Heavenly Palace is the outsider.

However, the Heavenly Palace was too powerful. In less than a thousand years, most of the demons and monsters had been wiped out, leaving only some powerful races struggling to hold on.

This includes the Red Ape Clan.

This race is born with immense strength and possesses an unwavering fighting spirit; they become even more ferocious when facing stronger opponents.

They are also the race that has killed the most gods.

That's why.

The Red Ape Clan became the primary hunting target of the gods. While other demons had the opportunity to be taken as slaves, the Red Ape Clan was wiped out as soon as they were discovered.

Go through the information.

Chen Lin felt he understood the content of this mission.

Break through the Tianjin Palace!
This is easy to deduce.

From the way he arrived, the scene of his massacre, and the characteristics of the Red Ape Clan, it's not hard to find the target.

But Chen Lin couldn't be happy.

This is a task with absolutely no room for shortcuts.

To complete this, he can only rely on his strength and fight his way through step by step. In his current state, there is not a shred of hope.

That was a being that could suppress all the demons in the entire realm.

And it's not just an individual, but a terrifying force, and there may even be reinforcements behind it.

Took a breath.

Chen Lin began to peruse the cultivation manual.

The original methods are no longer usable; if we want to turn the tide, we can only accept the legacy of the Red Ape Clan.

Hopefully, this surviving "Celestial Ape" is special enough to be an unparalleled genius, capable of quickly mastering the divine skill.

However, after learning about the divine skill, Chen Lin's face turned black.

This "Creating Heaven and Earth Divine Skill" is not actually a legitimate martial art. It has no energy circulation path, no outward supernatural powers or techniques, and not even any moves.

It's simply about increasing strength.

As for the method of cultivation, it is to fight, to fight constantly, to challenge beings stronger than oneself, and to seek breakthroughs in life-or-death crises.

This is nothing.

What truly left Chen Lin speechless was...

To master this divine skill, one must possess an indomitable spirit.

For the true Red Ape Clan, this is not a problem, because their indomitable spirit is innate, a racial talent.

But he is different.

He is an outsider, a fake, and has no spirit of resistance whatsoever.

Not only did he not, but he was also a coward who took caution and prudence as his way of self-cultivation, completely contrary to the spirit of perseverance.

"It's troublesome!"

Chen Lin rubbed his temples vigorously.
