Baby with Daoist Monarch System

The senior brother observing Xu Ran’s trial saw the monkey’s ferocity and couldn’t help but nod.

"The records in the study room are indeed true!"

The nearby second senior brother looked at the senior brother and curiously asked.

"Senior brother, what other deeds of this monkey are recorded in the study room’s ancient texts?"

Only the senior brother could enter the Nine-Layered Giant Tower’s study room and examine various ancient texts.

The second senior brother knew of the monkey’s existence because of the scattered mentions in external ancient texts, but there were no detailed events recorded.

Therefore, he only knew of the monkey’s existence but not what it had accomplished.

The senior brother stared at the monkey in the dueling arena, remained silent for a moment, then spoke.

"This monkey was a terrifying presence even when heaven and earth first opened.

Back then, it was incredibly arrogant, relying on its Great Power Cultivation, it forcibly made the Celestial Court appoint it to a position, and even disrupted the Celestial Court meetings, causing chaos.

If the Celestial Court’s foundation weren’t strong enough then, the Origin Realm would have been in turmoil.

In the end, if not for its master pleading for it, resulting in its mission to suppress the Nether Abyss, the resentment of most people would not have been quelled!"

Suppress the Nether Abyss!!

Upon hearing these words, the second senior brother and the junior sister’s eyes widened instantly.

What kind of existence is the Nether Abyss?

It’s the number one perilous place in the Origin Realm, even the Human Emperor Bell from the era when the world first opened was contaminated.

And now.

You’re saying this monkey could suppress the Nether Abyss??

The term suppression carries substantial weight.

What kind of power qualifies as suppression?

It means someone can make all the creatures within the Nether Abyss dare not reveal themselves.

The fact that this monkey could single-handedly suppress the Nether Abyss already illustrates its immense cultivation and capabilities!!

Moreover, don’t forget, such presences aren’t limited to just one within the Celestial Court!

This shows how powerful the Celestial Court, which has existed since shortly after the world first opened, truly is!

"But..."

As he spoke, the senior brother expressed doubt.

"The ancient texts in the study record that after the monkey went to suppress the Nether Abyss, it never appeared again until the Celestial Court collapsed.

The ancient texts only record up to this point. Unexpectedly, it appeared here!"

At this moment, the senior brother was deeply curious.

Before today, he thought he could freely read the ancient texts in the Nine-Layered Giant Tower study room as a senior brother.

The lack of answers in the ancient texts was believed to be because they weren’t recorded or the Nine-Layered Giant Tower was unaware of the event’s truth.

But now, it seems his access level is not high enough.

Above him in the Nine-Layered Giant Tower’s hierarchy, there is still a more advanced presence.

This presence is Xu Ran, who is now undergoing the trial.

If Xu Ran completes the trial, he might access the study room of the Nine-Layered Giant Tower, and his access might reveal all the hidden secrets of the Origin Realm!

Thinking of this, the senior brother’s eyes suddenly filled with fervor, eagerly hoping Xu Ran would successfully pass the trial.

...

The Xu Ran in the dueling arena is unaware of the senior brother’s expectations, nor does he know he has become coveted in the senior brother’s eyes.

His thoughts are entirely focused on the trial before him.

Moments later.

Xu Ran moved aside the broken stones pressing on him, grasped the wooden stick that had just been ejected, and stood on the ground.

"Whew!"

Exhaling deeply, he simultaneously cleaned off all the dust that had adhered to him.

He now knew the true strength of the monkey before him.

If not for his exceptional recovery ability, he would have been embedded in the ground long ago, battered into pulp by repeated blows.

The murderous monkey, seeing Xu Ran stand unharmed after being hit, felt insulted.

Not giving Xu Ran any chance to breathe, the small body wielded the stick, disappearing once more.

In Xu Ran’s field of vision, the shadow of the monkey had vanished.

Xu Ran, noticing this, gripped the stick tightly, immediately becoming alert.

At the same time, the Wind Control Skill passively activated, sensing the wind within the dueling arena.

Even though the monkey’s speed was extremely fast and its power immense.

But, as long as he dodged its attack, even the greatest power would be useless.

With his proficient mastery of the Wind Control Skill, even if he couldn’t use Divine Techniques now, his body’s perception of the wind was highly refined.

He could capture any subtle movements of the wind.

After all.

No matter how fast the monkey’s speed, it would inevitably stir the wind upon revealing itself.

Once the wind moved, Xu Ran, highly sensitive to the wind, could detect the deviation instantly and evade.

As expected.

"Whoosh--"

A strand of hair near Xu Ran’s temple was slightly ruffled by the wind, just a gentle motion.

Such an anomaly made Xu Ran react immediately.

Then, gripping the stick tightly, he crashed it to the ground, the massive thrust propelling his body swiftly backward.

In the next moment.

"Boom---"

A loud bang erupted at the spot where Xu Ran had just been standing, scattering rubble and dust.

Amidst the dust, a short, hunched silhouette appeared, its immense power shattering the ground, shards propelled into the air by its force.
