Long Gong, who had gently taken Snake Granny's hand, remained completely unmoved by Tang San's exclamation. His only question now was: Why was this Titan Giant Ape, which should live in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, here? Why was it in the territory of this thousand-year-old soul beast?
“Your Majesty, King of the Forest, we have no intention of offending you. If this is your territory, we are willing to withdraw immediately!” the Dragon King said in a deep voice.
If he could, he wouldn't want to be in such a heavy mood, but for some reason, this Titan Ape seemed to be in a state of rage, its fierce aura pressing down on them without any concealment. As the one with the highest soul power in the entire area, Long Gong could only silently release his own soul power to fight against it. If he didn't do that, these young men and women might have been crushed to the ground.
The Titan Ape completely ignored Dragon Duke's words; it simply took a step forward silently.
"The Yin and Yang transform, the dragon and snake combine their attacks!"
Almost the instant the Titan Giant Ape advanced, Dragon Duke and Snake Granny completed their Martial Soul Fusion, and a silver dragon coiled around a green snake slammed into the Titan Giant Ape.
"Run!"
Seeing the dragon and snake couple locked in a stalemate with the Titan Ape, Zhao Wuji gritted his teeth and summoned his martial soul, the Mighty Vajra Bear, instantly possessing him. "You two immediately eat Xiao Ao's Golden Wing Sausage and leave. The two of them and I will do our best to buy you some time... You need to be quick!"
Seeing that the Dragon and Snake couple's Martial Soul Fusion Skill was on the verge of collapse, Zhao Wuji instantly activated all the Soul Rings on his body. As his body swelled to five meters tall, he completely enveloped the Titan Giant Ape with gravity control, using the gravity compression to control the Titan Giant Ape as much as possible.
Then, he used a nearby tree as leverage to leap into the air, swung his arms, and charged straight at the Titan Giant Ape without sparing any of his soul power.
"Dai Mubai, you take them and leave first!" Xiao Yan instructed, and then dozens of fiery giant beasts appeared out of thin air and charged towards the Titan Giant Ape.
"You all go. I can't leave because I want to help him." A gentle yet firm voice rang out, and a magnificent Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda spun out from Ning Rongrong's palm.
"The seven treasures have names, the first of which is: strength."
"The seven treasures have names, the second of which is: speed."
With Ning Rongrong's brief, crisp voice, eight beams of light shot out simultaneously, two of which landed on Zhao Wuji just as he was about to strike the Titan Giant Ape's head.
The other four strikes landed on Xiao Yan, Long Gong, and Snake Granny, respectively.
There are nine teenagers in total. Two have already decided to stay. Will the others really leave?
Dai Mubai silently patted Tang San's shoulder, and his three spirit rings lit up at the same time. As his body expanded again, a white ball of light shot out from his mouth.
His meaning was clear: he was handing over the task of escorting the others to Tang San.
Tang San did not abandon them and had no intention of leaving alone with the rest of the people. As his spirit ring lit up, the Blue Silver Grass under his feet surged towards the Titan Giant Ape. Just like Xiao Yan and Dai Mubai, his target was also the forelimbs of this Titan Giant Ape.
Despite not having reached a higher level of distraction control, when Dai Mubai and Tang San made their moves, Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda still split off four beams of light that landed on them respectively.
Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran disappeared the moment Tang San rushed out. Of course, she wouldn't leave. At this moment, she was already flying on the big tree that Zhao Wuji had used for leverage earlier, looking for an opportunity to launch an attack.
Fatty Ma Hongjun muttered something under his breath, and his two spirit rings simultaneously released intense light. Purple flames rose all over his body. His second spirit ring skill, Phoenix of Desire, not only protected his body but also amplified his first spirit ring skill, Phoenix Fire Line. A phoenix fire line as thick as an arm spewed out from his mouth.
Xiao Wu launched her attack almost simultaneously with Zhu Zhuqing, but she chose a different, more powerful target.
Dealing with formidable opponents like the Titan Ape was actually her least favorite type of battle, but Xiao Wu still charged forward without hesitation. For some reason, she seemed rather relaxed, though no one would notice her expression at this moment.
Oscar then forcefully poured the Soul-Returning Liquid that Xiao Yan had given him into his stomach, while continuously chanting his soul incantation, trying his best to make Golden Wing Sausage.
boom--
When Zhao Wuji's palm landed heavily on the Titan Giant Ape's head, the Dragon and Snake couple's Martial Soul Fusion Technique could not continue, and the two were violently thrown away.
Also sent flying was Zhao Wuji, whose palm had landed on the Titan Ape's head.
The attacks from the Dragon and Snake couple and Zhao Wuji did not cause any damage to the Titan Ape, but they successfully enraged it, and a deafening roar quickly resounded throughout the entire area.
A layer of black energy burst forth from the Titan Ape.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yan, Dai Mubai, and Tang San, who were pouncing on the Titan Ape from the ground, as well as Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, and Xiao Wu, who were trying to launch a sneak attack, were all thrown away by the black shockwave. The fiery beast, the white light sphere, and the pillar of fire were also directly shattered, without even making contact with the Titan Ape's body.
Xiao Yan, who was closest to the wind, was blown away and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
As the black energy surged, its massive body leaped up at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, then descended from the sky, crashing down towards the direction where the crowd was gathered.
"No!"
After being thrown back, the dragon and snake couple stood up with bloodshot eyes. Dragging their heavily injured bodies, they once again unleashed their martial soul fusion skill, with the silver dragon and green snake pouncing on the giant beast that had fallen from the sky.
In the critical moment, a towering ice pillar rose from the ground, even freezing the Titan Ape.
Although the ice pillar was shattered by the Titan Ape's roar in an instant, it bought the remaining people time to dodge. By the time the giant beast landed and kicked up endless dust, everyone had safely left the area of impact and even managed to avoid the final aftershocks.
Seeing the boys and girls safely evade the attack, the Dragon and Snake couple managed a weak smile—their spirit fusion technique had been shattered twice, and they no longer had any spirit power left in their bodies.
At that moment, Tang San, who was hiding behind a giant tree, felt a chill in his heart—after the Titan Giant Ape landed, it casually grabbed Xiao Wu, who was hiding in the tree canopy, and held her in its palm.
"No! Let go of Xiaowu!"
Tang San's eyes instantly turned red. He leaped out, using a large tree as cover to lift himself into the air. His hands swept across his waist, and more than ten cold lights shot straight towards the Titan Giant Ape's eyes.
Zhao Wuji, who had already unleashed his Martial Soul True Form, also lunged at the arm that the Titan Giant Ape was holding Xiao Wu with.
Having calculated the timing perfectly, Xiao Yan summoned a giant fire beast tens of meters tall, which crashed into the Titan Giant Ape. As for himself, he naturally stood on top of the beast's head.
The cold light shot from Tang San's hand did not cause any damage to the Titan Giant Ape. In fact, it even had time to smash the head of the Flame Beast with one palm, sending Xiao Yan flying, while blocking Zhao Wuji's attack with its other hand and forcing him back dozens of steps.
As for Tang San?
When the Titan Giant Ape smashed the head of the Flame Beast, the resulting hurricane blew Tang San away again.
"No!" Xiao Wu exclaimed in surprise as she watched Tang San being blown away.
The Titan Ape looked down at Xiao Wu in its palm and let out another low growl. This time, it ignored Zhao Wuji, who was pouncing on it again, and suddenly leaped up, disappearing without a trace in a few bounds.
"Xiao Wu—" Zhao Wuji cried out, wanting to chase after her, but found that his speed was far inferior to that of the Titan Giant Ape.
The intense shockwave from the Titan Giant Ape had nearly shattered his Martial Soul True Body. With his Soul Power greatly depleted, he knew that even if he chased after it, it would be futile.
With the departure of the Titan Ape, the rest of the group emerged from their hiding places and gathered together.
The group looked at each other, feeling a sense of relief at having survived a disaster.
"Let's go... let's find Yan Xiao first. He shouldn't be far from here." Zhao Wuji revealed his true form, his face ashen. "How could the Titan Giant Ape possibly be on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest? I'm sorry everyone, it's all my fault. I couldn't stop him from taking Xiao Wu away. Tang San, you... please accept my condolences..."
No one believed that Xiao Wu, who had been captured by the Titan Ape, had any chance of survival, and Zhao Wuji didn't think so either.
"No, it's not your fault. I failed to protect Xiao Wu." Tang San kept his head down after getting up from the ground. His voice was calm, and he seemed to have no emotional fluctuations.
However, just as Zhao Wuji and Long Gong determined the direction in which Xiao Yan was sent flying, Tang San swallowed the Golden Wing Intestine handed to him by Oscar, and a pair of golden, transparent wings appeared on Tang San's back.
Before Zhao Wuji could speak, Tang San turned and flew towards the place where the Titan Giant Ape had disappeared. During this time, Ning Rongrong even accelerated his flight.
"You're going to find that kid?"
After listening to Zhao Wuji's reprimand of the Shrek Academy students, Long Gong asked calmly.
"This..." Zhao Wuji was a little embarrassed. They were courting death by going after the Titan Giant Ape, so they couldn't possibly drag the dragon and snake couple they met on the way down with them, could they?
"I hope to see you at the Soul Master Competition in a little over a year."
Upon seeing Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the Dragon Lord knew it was impossible to recruit these young people to his family. After leaving a message, he turned and walked out of the Star Dou Great Forest with Meng Yiran, who was still insisting on having her grandparents go with her to find Xiao Yan.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and recover your soul power! After finding that brute Yan Xiao, we still need to find that brainless Tang San!"
Zhao Wuji had nothing to say about Long Gong's choice. He turned around and scolded the student who was indignant in his eyes, then drank the Soul-Returning Liquid that Xiao Yan had given him.
Chapter 46 Yin and Yang
After the energy of the last herb was fully gathered into the pill, the surface of the pill began to become smooth and round, and the surrounding flames were reflected on its bluish-red surface.
After the pill was formed, Xiao Yan breathed a long sigh of relief and slowly withdrew his hand from the fire. As Xiao Yan withdrew his hand, the flames in the cauldron gradually went out.
After calming his breathing slightly, Xiao Yan waved his hand, and the lid of the medicine cauldron fell to the side. With a wave of his right hand, the blue and red pills in the cauldron flew out of the air and finally hovered in front of Xiao Yan.
"Won't you try the taste?" the old medicine doctor asked casually.
"I think... maybe we shouldn't?" Xiao Yan's face showed an awkward expression. "It feels quite dangerous..."
A few minutes earlier, Xiao Yan, who had been knocked away by the Titan Giant Ape, landed smoothly. After casually dealing with a Bloodthirsty Tree that he had been keeping an eye on, he took out a Soul Ring Storage Device made of a mineral he named 'Azure Red Stone'.
Fortunately, the mysterious pattern was not exclusive to any one mineral, and the purple soul ring was stored in the cyan-red stone in less than a minute.
Next, it took Xiao Yan a few minutes to refine the first pill in his life—a second-grade Qi-restoring pill.
The only problem is the color of this Qi-restoring pill...
"This is the first time I've ever seen a Qi-restoring pill that's bluish-red in color." Yao Lao stared directly at the Qi-restoring pill floating in front of Xiao Yan.
Moreover, the color is exactly the same as the cyan-red stone that Xiao Yan took out, the cyan-red stone with an absurdly high hardness, as if someone had carved this mineral and sculpted it into this round and smooth shape.
Should we put it away?
"...No, I'd better try it first."
After careful consideration, Xiao Yan grabbed the pill and, with a look of resignation, put it into his mouth.
As soon as the Qi-restoring pill entered his mouth, a faint coolness spread through his mouth. A moment later, a warm energy rushed into his body from his mouth. Xiao Yan could clearly feel that his body was slowly absorbing the spreading, gentle medicinal power.
When the last trace of medicinal power was completely absorbed, Xiao Yan gently moved his tongue, trying to find traces of the cyan-red stone in his mouth.
"Success!" Xiao Yan, who had not found any foreign objects in his mouth, beamed with an undisguised smile.
"And the results?"
Although the fact that there was something that could replace the magic core made Yao Lao somewhat happy, he still immediately inquired about the efficacy of the pill.
"It's much better than the pill liquid I made before," Xiao Yan commented briefly. "Moreover, the recovery of Dou Qi is very stable, and there won't be any sudden overflow."
Besides being volatile, the Soul-Returning Liquid he made previously also had unstable recovery efficiency, easily resulting in more recovery than consumption in a short period of time. Therefore, Xiao Yan would not drink it directly from the bottle in most cases.
"It looks absolutely perfect."
Hearing Xiao Yan's evaluation, Yao Lao nodded in satisfaction. "Shall we head straight back now?"
"...I remember the lair of the Blazing Roaring Tiger is nearby, right?" After a slight hesitation, Xiao Yan shook his head. "Let's go there first."
Indeed, this location is not far from the lair of the Blazing Roaring Tiger. At Xiao Yan's speed, it would take him less than two minutes to go back and forth. The Shrek Academy group, on the other hand, is some distance away, and it would take them at least five or six minutes to find their way here.
"Blazing Roaring Tigers?" Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan strangely. "Why are you interested in them?"
Because of the information on mental power cultivation provided by Lin Dong, Xiao Yan can now suppress his battle qi with ease using his mental power. He no longer needs to rely on absorbing soul rings to increase his soul power to suppress his battle qi as before. Therefore, Yao Lao is somewhat curious about Xiao Yan's decision.
"I just suddenly remembered that when I first met Lin Dong, the... soul power fluctuations on his body were leaning towards Yin Sha, right?" After a pause, Xiao Yan decided to consider the energy in Lin Dong's body as soul power. "However, after absorbing the soul ring of the Azure Flame Dragon Beast and using the energy of that skull, the energy in his body began to show Yang Gang Qi..."
"Yin and Yang, so when Lin Dong needs to break through again, what he will need to do is balance Yin and Yang, or use a spiritual object that can balance Yin and Yang, right?"
"Are you planning to make him a yin-yang balancing pill?" As Xiao Yan explained, Yao Lao gradually understood what Xiao Yan wanted to do.
"If Lin Dong needs to use a spiritual object that balances Yin and Yang afterward..."
Xiao Yan corrected him, saying that according to his speculation... of course, we also have to take into account the changes in soul power when we watched the Dragon and Snake couple use the Martial Soul Fusion Technique. Lin Dong's next 'breakthrough' will definitely require yin and yang balance, but what if there are exceptions?
"...If either of you is a woman, then no one else can possibly interfere in your relationship." After holding back for a long time, the old doctor finally said these words.
