Chapter 2487 - 1443:
The Monkey King’s heart was filled with jealousy.
It was also the master’s Spiritual Pet, so why didn’t it have as many good things?
From observing the human, it seemed this one had ingested Pills.
Previously just watching from the sidelines, now it was truly face-to-face combat.
The force unleashed from the human’s body carried the scent of Immortal Pills, which the Monkey King could detect.
Lai Jianlin didn’t care what the Monkey King thought at this moment.
He was just thinking about a quick victory, seeing traces of defeat in his wife’s steps during the battle.
This was not a friendly match, nor a tournament; with two people facing the Monkey King, his wife and another Human Cultivator seemed unable to hold up.
Even with two against one, they couldn’t manage.
Perhaps their methods were different, or maybe their strength was a bit weaker, as the female’s power was not as strong.
Lai Jianlin didn’t look down on female cultivators, after all, some were stronger than their male counterparts.
He was just anxious and pained for his wife.
Luo Yaxuan’s battle was ending, burning off all the Monkey King’s fur.
Tortured the opponent, leaving him quite disgraced.
The Monkey King now hated him.
No matter how much the Monkey King hated, Luo Yaxuan was prepared to withdraw, watching his team’s people fight the Monkey. Despite the skirmish seeming like a tie, it wasn’t really.
Among their team were also those who were in a difficult situation; it could be said their coping experience wasn’t rich enough.
...
Luo Yaxuan swiftly ended the fight, but after defeating the Monkey, didn’t let him out of the Formation.
He worried that if this Monkey got out, he would help other Monkeys, seeking revenge in the chaos.
Luo Yaxuan’s current thought was to help, to assist his wife.
Even though Liu Jiaojiao possessed Magical Treasures and Spiritual Pets, and Talismans, she was the weakest among the crowd, being suppressed by the opponent.
The moment Luo Yaxuan freed his hands, he didn’t help other companions but first went to rescue his wife.
He still had that protective instinct.
Among the team, there were still degrees of closeness, and now that his wife was in trouble, his priority was obviously to protect her.
Before he arrived, the Spell already did; the Thunder Technique struck down, affecting certain designated targets.
Sensing the danger, the Monkey quickly jumped out of the area being struck.
Indeed, it was close; staying a moment longer could have resulted in an explosion.
Already lost the will to fight, as a stronger Human Cultivator appeared.
The Monkey trembled because their King was defeated.
Trembling with fear, it thought of withdrawing from the fight, and this idea affected other companions.
Luo Yaxuan came to help, changing the combat situation once more.
With his assistance, there was no way Liu Jiaojiao would be bullied.
And furthermore, they won; in the battle against Demonic Beasts, the humans were victorious again.
The most aggrieved and unresigned were the Monkeys, as even with their King stepping in, they lost.
And after being humiliated so badly, they weren’t willing to accept defeat and started showing their anger.
They even reneged, not allowing humans to live here.
Although humans won, the Monkeys still had the power to drive them away.
Occasionally causing trouble while the humans practiced.
Hoping for a peaceful resolution seemed impossible, as they didn’t wish for peace either.
Luo Yaxuan and Lai Jianlin’s teams were annoyed too, they didn’t come here just to endlessly battle a bunch of Demonic Beasts.
Their thought was more about leaving this place to explore somewhere else.
Even if it’s the same Magical Treasure, being in different places might yield different rewards.
This place was relatively stable, which was why they stayed, but now it’s no longer stable, so there’s no need to remain.
Besides, they had other thoughts, given that they had been here for quite a few days; if they didn’t train by battling other Demonic Beasts, they would remain stuck at this capability level.
Now, with constant fighting here, the battles felt different and somewhat tiresome.
Luo Yaxuan and his wife didn’t have the mood for affection anymore, because other little monkeys were causing trouble, yet they couldn’t kill them, which was rather frustrating.
Even though they could shield themselves from the noise of these noisy little monkeys, these monkeys lacked the human sense of shame.
Regardless of whether they were male or female monkeys, they shamelessly defecated in front of them to humiliate them.
It was disgusting to watch!
Luo Yaxuan and Lai Jianlin discussed leaving, considering they had been here long enough and didn’t need to stay.
They were curious where the Monkeys got those Vine Whips from.
Such useful Vine Whips were something they wanted to use too, and although they couldn’t chop them now, they wanted to collect seeds to plant them, to use as weapons during battles when the Vine Whip grew from the seed.
After discussing this, they became motivated to leave.
In this Immortal Castle, they had found several types of Spirit Grass, though they possessed them before, as rewards from the Saint Master.
There was a kind of Spirit Grass they could plant for their grass-eating Spirit Beasts, specially cultivated, aside from those used for eating; Demonic Beasts could be raised on their own. How to breed Spirit Beasts to make them taste the best depends on the breeding methods and materials.
Luo Yaxuan and Lai Jianlin, with their two teams of over 300 people, set out together; the Magical Treasure wouldn’t let them split apart, so they gathered and fought collectively.
They didn’t know if they would encounter other teams.
They left the orchard because there were no more ripe fruits left to eat, and the Monkeys didn’t welcome them.
However, they had exchanged for some of those fruits, which they could grow using the seeds.
The Spirit Fruit the Monkeys ate was quite selective; besides bananas and apples, it was mostly giant peaches.
These were not ordinary fruits, including some that could grant humans or Demonic Beasts extended lifespans, called Longevity Fruit.
Though the fruit trees bore fruit only once in many years, making them extremely rare.
They couldn’t procure such fruit trees, but they could cut and replant branches.
This method of tree planting was found in a planting book they had read.
This book was likely from the base’s library, knowledge they gained from a competition they united in last time.
On this side, Luo Yaxuan and Lai Jianlin, with their teams, were invisible by the lake as the sun set.
They didn’t show themselves because they discovered many Demonic Beasts nearby, their presence not so calm.
These Demonic Beasts seemed ready to fight at any moment, possibly showing signs of battle with humans and other Demonic Beasts.
The beasts looked a bit disheveled, seeking healing by the lake, because the sun offered powerful resources for recovery.
The Vitality Flower was what these beasts used to enhance their strength; they didn’t practice but could absorb the flower’s scent to heal and replenish Spiritual Power.
Here was another flower that bloomed only at night, and their wounded bodies had to grab those flowers as they bloomed.
Picking flowers at night posed dangers, as it meant battling Ghosts for the Nourishing Soul Flower.
To heal their souls, they had to take the risk.
Nonetheless, in this place, they stayed unaware that humans were also concealed here.
Though humans were hidden, even the beasts’ keen noses couldn’t detect them.
This was thanks to Magical Treasures that shielded their scent, preventing their Qi from spreading, quietly hovering in mid-air, each person hiding in their Flying Treasure.
The two teams didn’t have the intention of attacking these beasts, seeing so many here hinted they might witness a show at night.
A show of Ghosts and Demonic Beasts battling.
