"Hm!?"
The sudden sound caused the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's eyes to fix on the human who had appeared in the distance. "There are actually humans here!"
"No... you are a Patriarch Realm expert!"
The Tongbei Ape-Monkey, though tall and strong, was extremely intelligent. Upon seeing Ye Xuan, he had already become wary. "To have entered the Patriarch Realm in such a short time, you must have gained considerable benefits."
"Submit to me, or... die."
Looking at the Tongbei Ape-Monkey before him, although the Xuan Alliance had many Dao Ancestor experts, they had never had a beast of the Dao Ancestor realm. The current Tongbei Ape-Monkey was clearly a good target.
Upon hearing this, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's pupils widened. "Human, you seek death!!"
"To make this King submit, what arrogance!!"
Immediately, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey clenched his fist, the size of a millstone, and smashed it towards Ye Xuan. This punch was something even a second-tier Dao Ancestor would not dare to withstand directly.
Seeing the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's stance, Ye Xuan was startled. "Good fellow, are we comparing strength?"
Ye Xuan also threw a punch. The Tongbei Ape-Monkey was taken aback and then his face was filled with a human-like mockery.
To withstand his punch, was this human's brain caught in a door?
However, his mockery quickly turned into utter astonishment.
*Boom!!*
In a single blow, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey felt as if he had hit a mountain weighing ten thousand jun. A surging, immense force then sent him flying backward.
With a roar, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey reappeared, having smashed distant boulders into dust. He then shook his head and looked at Ye Xuan opposite him, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
"You... how is this possible!!"
The Tongbei Ape-Monkey's pupils widened, staring unblinkingly at the small figure before him. He had actually been sent flying by that human.
What was even more terrifying was that the human opposite him had not taken a single step back.
This meant!
In a pure strength confrontation, he had been completely defeated!
"Human, I don't believe it!!"
The Tongbei Ape-Monkey exploded on the spot, unable to accept what he was seeing.
He immediately unleashed his full second-tier Dao Ancestor aura, and with an attack far more potent than the one that had annihilated over a thousand Void Ancestor experts, he launched a surprise assault.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan's lips curled.
He still hadn't used his realm. He circulated his Divine Thunder bloodline to its limit, and then directly activated the [Invincible Spear Domain]. That wasn't all; he also unleashed his lightning abilities to their fullest, and then threw another punch.
*Boom!!*
The two terrifying attacks instantly collided. The moment they met, the ground immediately formed a shocking gash that stretched far into the distance.
Earth and stones flew, and energy surged!
For a time, the aura in the arena was evenly matched.
This time, Ye Xuan and the Tongbei Ape-Monkey each retreated several yards. Clearly, the ape-monkey was also quite formidable.
"This... is impossible~!!"
The Tongbei Ape-Monkey's pupils widened, completely stunned by what he was seeing. A human, without using any realm, had resolved his attack solely through various abilities. This clearly indicated that he was far from a match for this human, even though this human was only at the first-tier Dao Ancestor realm.
"Submit, or die..."
"Impossible!!"
Before Ye Xuan could finish speaking, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey unleashed another attack. Seeing this, Ye Xuan's lips curled. "He's got a tough temper."
Then, Ye Xuan formed his right hand into a palm. In the next moment, he precisely grabbed the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's right leg. Then, under the ape-monkey's incredulous gaze, he lifted the ape-monkey off the ground, arced through the air, and with a deafening roar, smashed him headfirst into the ground. Instantly, the ground cracked, and spiderweb-like fissures spread outward.
"Human, how dare you..."
*Bang!*
*Bang bang bang!!*
In the bewildered eyes of the Tongbei Ape-Monkey, he was smashed into the ground a second, third, fifth...
Within moments, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey had been slammed into the ground dozens of times. Even the powerful second-tier Dao Ancestor was left disoriented.
However, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey did not suffer significant injuries!
But this was merely the beginning of the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's tragic fate. Just as the ape-monkey was about to dismiss it with disdain.
*Zzzzzzala~~*
Terrifying lightning instantly spread throughout the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's body. His fur stood on end, completely filled with lightning. The feeling alone was incredibly intense.
At this moment, Ye Xuan directly escalated his realm to the Dao Ancestor realm. As for his might, one could imagine the extent of its surge.
*Boom~~*
With a single strike, the sound of cracking bones echoed ceaselessly from the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's body. In just one blow, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey broke at least a hundred bones.
In extreme pain!
The Tongbei Ape-Monkey's eyes bulged wide. Before he could even properly process it, another supremely domineering collision shook the surroundings.
*Boom!*
*Boom!!*
One after another, after continuing for over ten breaths, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey was in such agony that he doubted his existence. "I... I submit!"
At this moment, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey had lost all his self-importance and arrogance. His heart and face were now filled with fear.
A devil!
That human was a devil!
He was not ashamed to lose to such a person.
*Boom!!!*
However, as the Tongbei Ape-Monkey spoke, another earth-shattering roar was poised to strike.
Tongbei Ape-Monkey: "Aow~~~"
At that moment, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey wished he were dead. Damn it, hadn't I submitted? This is a disaster!
All his bones were shattered!
This was the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's current state. What a joke!
If the Tongbei Ape-Monkey hadn't cried out, he might have been smashed to death by sheer force.
However, from another perspective, it showed how resilient the Tongbei Ape-Monkey was!
"If you had submitted earlier, you wouldn't have had to endure a beating."
Tongbei Ape-Monkey: "!!!"
Damn it, I never expected you to be so powerful, you're practically not human.
Of course, he would never dare to say this, as he certainly did not want to experience that beating again.
"Hehe, Master is mighty and imposing, this subordinate admires you greatly~~"
The Tongbei Ape-Monkey, having been subdued, began showering Ye Xuan with flattery, not holding back at all. Ye Xuan gave him a sideways glance. "Do you have any objections to me taking five mid-grade immortal crystals?"
"No, of course not."
The Tongbei Ape-Monkey immediately replied without hesitation. Ye Xuan nodded in satisfaction and took the Tongbei Ape-Monkey's spatial ring. Upon inspecting it, he found five mid-grade immortal crystals. In addition, there were no less than fifty low-grade immortal crystals. As for spiritual herbs, there was one that was 700,000 years old, and three to five others that were 500,000 to 600,000 years old.
The harvest was clearly quite substantial.
He glanced at the Tongbei Ape-Monkey on the ground, then flipped his right hand, producing several drops of essence blood. These were the essence blood of the Ice River Giant Beast clone, the Elf clone, the Dragon clone, as well as Little Black Dragon and Little Cai, five individuals.
The five drops of essence blood were ingested by the Tongbei Ape-Monkey. Instantly, the Tongbei Ape-Monkey felt as if he were being choked, his face turning red.
"This... such pure and potent essence blood! Damn it, Master's opportunities are so domineering, isn't he afraid of bursting me out!"
