Chapter 74 Wind and Thunder Wild Ape
Chapter 74 Wind and Thunder Wild Ape
Mount Emei is located on the southwestern edge of the Sichuan Basin.
The natural scenery here can be summarized in five words: majestic, beautiful, unique, dangerous, and secluded.
Unlike places like the Tianshan and Kunlun Mountains, this place is not entirely a paradise for demons.
In reality, only one hilltop belongs to the ape-like demons; the rest of the hilltops belong to humans.
A golden Buddha statue stands atop the mountain, its golden barrier protecting the human territory and preventing demons from setting foot there.
White clouds, like waves, dot the azure sky.
Because of its unique environment, this place attracts a large number of tourists every day.
At the foot of the mountain, there is a fork in the road.
Go left or right.
On the left, it's packed with people, and there's a queue!
"Big brother, are you also going to the mountains to worship Buddha?" A little girl of about five or six years old gently tugged at a young man passing by.
"Huh?" The silver-haired youth, who was walking, paused and looked down at the little girl.
"Big brother, let's line up together. Mom says the Buddha here is very efficacious, and I want to pray for my dad's safety. What about you, big brother? What are you here for?"
The little girl was getting a bit bored while waiting in line. When she saw her mother looking at the older boy, she assumed her mother knew him and reached out to grab his hand.
The silver-haired youth didn't answer the little girl's question, but instead asked, "What happened to your father?"
"Dad is injured, and I want to do something for him, but I don't know if I'll be able to see the Buddha today?" The little girl's face, which had been somewhat excited, suddenly turned a little dejected.
Children don't unconsciously hide their emotions like adults do. They laugh when they're happy and cry when they're sad. They don't really understand what it means to cry happily.
A glint of silver light flashed in the silver-haired youth's eyes. He slowly squatted down, patted the little girl's head, and said with a gentle smile, "Don't worry, you'll see."
As soon as the words were spoken, the dense crowd was gently parted to both sides by an invisible hand.
"Huh?" The little girl looked in front of her in surprise and exclaimed excitedly, "Mommy, look!"
Upon hearing the sound, the little girl's mother shifted her gaze from the young man and looked ahead.
A path was being reserved for them in the crowd.
The mother quickly seized the opportunity and pulled the little girl forward.
The little girl looked back at the handsome older brother with reluctance, only to see him walk around the crowd and head towards the other side of the fork in the road.
Over there, it was deserted and unobstructed!
"Mom, is there a big Buddha statue over there too?"
-
"Knock knock knock!!!"
On the mountain, a large number of trees collapsed with a crash.
A white figure darted through the woods and fled into the distance.
Behind it followed a patch of blue clouds.
The blue clouds would sometimes reveal a crack, and then gather together again, creating an eerie scene.
Upon closer inspection, those weren't clouds at all; they were clearly a dense swarm of tiny, bluish-green creatures.
"Moth, come back."
A voice drifted from behind.
Upon hearing the sound, the small blue creatures scattered in all directions; one by one, the little blue moths turned their heads and flew away.
Every time they brush against the trunk of a tree, they leave a deep scratch.
When a series of scratches converge in the same spot, the sturdy tree collapses with a crash.
Hua Yu's figure slowly appeared from behind, followed by a giant green moth that was already a meter in size.
The large blue moth flew leisurely, following right behind Hua Yu.
Besides the combat moths with wings like silver blades, there was also a group of the smallest blue moths that were landing on the bodies of several dead servant-level demons, feeding on these "moving mines" that had absorbed countless amounts of energy.
The corpses visibly shriveled up.
Immediately afterwards, the green moths also flew back. Unlike the spirit moths that surrounded Hua Yu, the green moths instead surrounded the large green moth that was a meter in size.
However, in no time at all, the little green moths fell from the sky one after another, turning into dust and disappearing in the wind.
It's as if they never existed in this world.
At the same time, the giant green moth let out a low moan, and its aura grew even stronger.
Hua Yu glanced at the giant green moth. He wondered if its forty-three brothers and sisters who had absorbed the holy water had done something to it. In any case, it had become very special.
Every time its life is about to end, it will spin white silk and transform itself into a pupa to be reborn.
Its life cycle is also getting longer and longer.
From the initial two weeks, to the current four weeks.
Furthermore, its rate of growth far surpasses that of ordinary demons.
Each of the Green Moths that Hua Yu contracted with would transfer all of their energy to the Great Green Moth before they died.
Since the giant green moth does not participate in production, its cultivation level will not be affected.
The number of those little green moths can increase fivefold in just one week.
Unfortunately, its initial bloodline determines its upper limit; at most, it can only remain at the servant-level advancement stage.
Hua Yu knew how to make the Thunderfire Twin Apes stronger, but he really didn't know what to use to help the Giant Fluttering Moth advance.
When he asked his master Pang Lai about this, Pang Lai was furious.
Double summoning plus double contract—such an awesome talent, and all you did was contract a moth for me!
Hua Yu couldn't explain this to Pang Lai. He couldn't very well say that his talent was Infinite Contract and that there was a real dragon lying in the contract space.
If I said that out loud, Pang Lai would probably go crazy.
This talent is truly incredible.
Just as Hua Yu was pondering these things, a small green moth, which was specifically responsible for gathering information, flew back.
Hua Yu extended a finger, and the little green moth landed on his fingertip.
Upon activating the Hearing of All Things, Hua Yu quickly learned the news brought back by the little green moth, and his eyes turned towards a certain direction in the forest.
"Let's go, let's meet the overlord of this mountain."
Hua Yu has a sound-based detection ability, so within a certain range, no movement can escape his perception. However, he has no way to detect movements within a large range. But these tireless little green moths can solve this problem for him very well.
Having found his destination, Hua Yu didn't waste a moment and immediately headed towards it.
The Wind and Thunder Wild Ape is a dual-attribute demon, a commander-level being, primarily cultivating wind, and possesses formidable strength.
Although the lightning element is not abundant, there are already few demons with the lightning element, let alone a single type. This situation cannot be forced.
In addition, the wind element also enhances speed, which does not conflict with the melee combat-oriented demon, the Plum Moon Thunder Ape.
Hua Yu is determined to obtain the beast soul of the Wind and Thunder Wild Ape this time.
A commander-level summoned beast has arrived!
