Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 74 Snow Demon Sky Ape

Inside the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy, along a scenic path lined with flowers on both sides, Zi Yan suddenly looked up as if she had heard something unbelievable, staring at Lin Feng who was smiling at her.

He twitched his shoulder slightly, then broke into a wide smile.

"Hmph, of course I know where to go."

Although she said this, her voice was softer than ever before in her life, and she held Lin Feng's large hand tightly, secretly delighted.

"Hehe, now I have friends too!"

Under the bright sunlight, two figures, one tall and one short, slowly disappeared along the forest path, and this scene will forever be etched in Zi Yan's mind.

The vast, verdant mountains were occasionally punctuated by hoarse roars of beasts, warning outsiders to be cautious. But today, something strange happened: two figures flew recklessly above the mountains, acting with impunity, as if they had some powerful backing.

"Lin Feng, the stinky monkey you mentioned is just ahead, hehe, you have to help me give it a good beating later."

As Zi Yan spoke, she gritted her teeth, seemingly recalling the time she was brutally beaten, and angrily swung her little fist.

"Okay, okay, I'll deal with it later."

During their casual conversation, the two flew to a valley and stopped, then slowly descended.

"This is it, Lin Feng. Let me take a look first. Several months have passed; perhaps this guy is no match for me now."

Before Lin Feng could make a move, he shot into the valley, followed by a loud shout.

"You stinky monkey, your grandma is here again! Get out here and get beaten up!"

"Hey, you little brat, I spared your life last time, and now you're back to court death. I'm going to tear you apart."

With a tremendous roar, a gigantic white ape, nearly ten zhang tall, appeared in Lin Feng's line of sight as he followed closely behind. Of course, to fulfill the wish of the temperamental little girl Zi Yan, Lin Feng had completely concealed his aura using his soul power.

"Hmph, we're not sure who'll tear whom apart yet. Get ready to eat my fists!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the small, white fist suddenly swung out at the white ape, kicking up a huge cloud of dust. Seeing this, the white ape was not careless. In the last clash, it had suffered a great loss because it hadn't taken this little guy seriously.

With a roar, the giant white ape swung its fist and slammed it down at Zi Yan. The two fists, which were vastly different in size, collided fiercely, but the result was astonishing: neither could gain the upper hand.

"How is that possible? How could you, little girl, improve so quickly? Hah."

After the two figures, one large and one small, each retreated a distance, the Snow Demon Ape roared fiercely. It had only been a few months since it had beaten this little one so badly that it had fled in terror. For these fifth-tier magical beasts, that was merely the time it took to doze off, yet the two beasts were already evenly matched.

Indeed, it had long sensed that the little one in front of it was one of its kind, and it could even vaguely sense a noble aura emanating from it, which was why it held back last time.

"Unlike you, you slow learner, I'll beat you down right now!"

Before Zi Yan could finish speaking, she threw another powerful punch. Seeing this, the Snow Demon Ape ignored its doubts and grabbed a nearby hard rock, smashing it down hard.

Seeing this, Zi Yan was not afraid at all. After completely enveloping her fist with her fighting spirit, she slammed it down hard. This kind of collision was the one she was least afraid of.

"Boom!"

The sounds of intense collisions continued, accompanied by the occasional falling of pebbles; the force was so great that even a typical Dou Ling would not dare to underestimate it. However, Lin Feng paid no heed to it, easily dodging all the stones falling towards him in a few leaps.

"I didn't expect Zi Yan to be unfamiliar with combat techniques. It seems I'll have to find some time to teach her. As for where combat techniques come from, I'll have to ask Elder Su Qian."

Lin Feng rubbed his chin, observing the battle between the two, and found that Zi Yan was using brute force to fight from beginning to end, at most covering her fists with battle aura.

Immediately afterward, Lin Feng's pupils contracted sharply, and his fighting spirit surged out wildly. He instantly used a combined attack technique of Lightning Step and Vajra Finger, stabbing fiercely at the Snow Demon Heavenly Ape.

However, as the battle escalated, the Snow Demon Ape became increasingly irritable. In addition, Zi Yan's occasional provocations only fueled its anger, causing its eyes to bulge with bloodshot veins.

"roar"

Finally, with a tremendous roar, he unleashed a powerful punch, sending Zi Yan staggering back over a hundred meters. He then pounded his chest, producing a loud thud, before roaring to the sky once more.

Then, Lin Feng and Zi Yan saw the Snow Demon Ape, which was already ten zhang in size, suddenly shoot upwards at a speed visible to the naked eye, reaching a size of nearly twenty zhang in the blink of an eye.

This sudden change startled Zi Yan slightly. By the time she reacted, the enormous figure with crimson eyes was already before her. Seeing this immense power approaching, Zi Yan's pupils constricted sharply, and a strange aura seemed to emanate from her body.

Unfortunately, she encountered the Snow Demon Sky Ape, which had completely gone berserk and was devoid of any intelligence. At this moment, Zi Yan gritted her teeth and prepared to endure the injury and withstand the attack.

"Lightning Vajra Step!"

However, a voice suddenly rang in her ears, and then, the enormous Snow Demon Ape was violently thrown back as if struck by a heavy blow. It crashed into the solid rock wall of the valley with a loud bang, and large piles of rocks fell off the wall.

"You little rascal, you'd better be careful next time. You should always act within your capabilities."

Gently wiping the dust from Zi Yan's hair, Lin Feng looked at her. Fortunately, he acted in time; otherwise, Zi Yan would have been seriously injured by the Snow Demon Ape's punch.

"How was I supposed to know this big guy would go berserk? Next time, I'll definitely..."

Zi Yan retorted defiantly, then, noticing Lin Feng's gaze, she lowered her head, interlacing her little fingers and lightly kicking at the pebbles beside her feet as if to avert her gaze. The result was a burst of energy, causing Lin Feng's lips to twitch.

"Alright, leave the rest to me!"

Then he turned to face the Snow Demon Sky Ape, which had emerged from the rock wall and whose imposing aura remained undiminished. A surge of battle qi erupted from Lin Feng's body, then quickly split into five streams.

"Try out my innovative research method!"

"Five Elements Sealing Technique - Spirit Beast Transformation!"

With a clap of his hands, the five streams of battle energy that had been rushing towards the Snow Demon Ape seemed to sense some command and rapidly began to swirl and revolve around each other. A few moments later, they swiftly transformed into five ancient behemoths, no smaller than the enraged Snow Demon Ape, surrounded by earth, ocean, and volcanoes.

Zi Yan sensed a familiar aura from one of them. Her lips twitched slightly, but she remained silent, watching Lin Feng engaged in battle.

"roar"

Staring intently at the several enormous creatures, each no smaller than himself, charging toward him, even in his berserk state, the Snow Demon Ape dared not be careless. He pounded his chest fiercely and roared at the five strange beasts.

"Boom!"

After several consecutive loud explosions, a huge mushroom cloud of dust rose from the spot and slowly dissipated after a while.

Seeing this, Zi Yan was the first to run forward out of curiosity, wanting to see what was going on. This time, Lin Feng didn't stop her, since he already knew the outcome.

"roar"

What came into their view was a ten-zhang-long giant ape covered in scars and bleeding profusely, its body slightly curled up, emitting a weak roar, as if it had given up all hope of survival.

Seeing this, Zi Yan didn't feel the excitement she had expected. Instead, she thought of herself before Su Qian discovered her, when she could only helplessly hide in the cave after being beaten, licking her wounds. This giant ape was so similar to her back then, so she gently tugged at Lin Feng's hand.

"Lin Feng, let's let it go!"
