"This …"
"Was Brother Tiger careless?"
"That should be the case. Otherwise, why would he be hit by a child?"
Linghu shook his head and stood up, panting slightly as he gradually regained his senses.
"Child, you've angered me!"
Linghu glared at the boy not far away and said fiercely.
This kind of physical blow was only secondary.
The main thing was that he was punched solidly in the face by the boy in front of monkey and the others – that was way too embarrassing!
Swash!
Linghu's figure flashed and his blood qi burst forth. Thunderbolts coiled around his body and he exuded a domineering aura unique to the tiger race!
"Roar!"
Linghu roared at the boy.
The wind howled!
"You're so noisy!"
The boy frowned and was a little angry.
Initially, he wanted to teach Linghu a lesson. However, he did not expect that Linghu would get up and even shout at him – that made him extremely unhappy.
Swash!
Linghu merely felt his vision blur and the boy had already vanished from the spot!
So fast!
Linghu's heart sank. Without hesitation, he waved his hand and released the power of thunder before him.
Bang!
Before Linghu's fist could even touch the boy's clothes, his face was severely injured once more!
After a moment of dizziness, Linghu finally realized that he had been sent flying by the boy once more!
By the time he got up from the ground, both sides of his face were swollen and he looked like a true tiger's head.
This time round, monkey and the others did not laugh.
They had fought countless battles and were discerning. Naturally, they could tell that although the boy looked innocent and adorable, his combat strength was abnormally terrifying!
There were not many demons of the same cultivation realm who could defeat Linghu.
Although Linghu did not revert to his true form and was not in his peak state, the boy was in human form as well.
"Interesting,"
Monkey smacked his lips and a fighting spirit flashed through his eyes.
The thing he loved the most in his life was fighting!
Back when he first met Su Zimo, he stayed in that cave for half a year and fought almost every day.
Now that he saw the boy's extraordinary combat strength, monkey was itching for a fight as well.
"Little doll, Brother Monkey will play with you!"
Monkey grinned and tapped the ground with his toes, darting over with a malevolent aura. He reached out with his furry palm and grabbed towards the boy.
The boy seemed to have noticed that the monkey was not weak. He put on a stern face and focused on dealing with it.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The boy and monkey exchanged three consecutive blows and were not disadvantaged!
"Hmm?"
Monkey had held back his strength, worried that he would injure the boy.
However, as the two of them continued to clash head-on, the monkey's strength continued to rise. In the end, even after pushing it to its limits, it was still unable to force the boy back!
Furthermore, monkey could vaguely sense that the boy still had strength left!
The monkey was fearless and delighted at the sight of prey. He no longer held back and unleashed all his strength to fight the boy!
"Whose kid is this? He's so powerful at such a young age?"
Qing Qing was puzzled.
One had to know that among the seven brothers, the monkey's combat strength was ranked third. He could even compete with the Dharma Daojun. How could this little kid be so powerful?
"Old Five, can you see anything?"
Qing Qing glanced sideways and asked.
Night Spirit pondered for a moment before saying, "Peach trees are extremely powerful to begin with. In the primordial era, they were known as Dragon Subduing Wood and Ghost Fear Wood. Many races refer to them as immortal trees."
It could subdue dragons, ward off evil and exorcise ghosts – its strength was imaginable!
"So powerful?"
Qing Qing was secretly speechless.
Cacao was puzzled and could not help but say, "However, it's rare to see peach trees that are sentient in the demon region. Even if they are sentient, it's rare for them to be able to cultivate to this realm, let alone possess such immense combat strength. "
"That depends on how the peach tree is sentient," Night Spirit said.
"What do you mean?"
Qing Qing and the others did not understand.
Night Spirit explained, "To put it simply, if the peach tree is sentient after a long period of evolution and the birth of the essence qi of Heaven and Earth, the power it can control is limited."
"Or, it might gain sentience through a coincidence and step into cultivation. That's very normal as well."
After pausing for a moment, Night Spirit continued, "However, it's hard to say if it has the guidance of an expert to help it gain sentience!"
"Expert?"
Qing Qing and the others asked instinctively.
Night Spirit said, "For example, if an immortal guided this peach tree and allowed it to gain sentience, it would mean that the Dao legacy of this peach tree came from that immortal!"
"Once it steps into cultivation, its potential will be unimaginable!"
Qing Qing and the others understood.
There were many similar legends in Tianhuang Mainland.
It was said that immortals of the upper world often cultivated on a green stone. Over time, the green stone gave birth to sentience and turned into a spirit!
The cultivation of the green stone made it extremely strong and invincible!
"In that case, the person who guided this peach tree to gain sentience has an extraordinary background?"
Qing Qing speculated, "Could it be a Grand Demon? Or an old demon? "
Grand Demons were equivalent to Conjoint Body Mighty Figures.
Old demons were equivalent to Mahayana Patriarchs!
Just as the crowd was discussing, a figure fell to the ground with a bang.
In midair, the figure burst forth with blood qi once more and barely managed to control its body. It landed on the ground and staggered three steps back!
The one who was sent flying was monkey!
This time round, Qing Qing and the others were truly shocked.
Even monkey could not defeat this little boy?
Night Spirit frowned slightly and murmured with a deep gaze, "The person who guided this peach tree is probably much scarier than Mahayana Patriarchs!"
"Brother Monkey, don't worry, I'll help you!"
At the side, Linghu rubbed his swollen face and was about to lunge forward in a huff.
"Get back here!"
Qing Qing hollered, "Aren't the two of you embarrassed to join forces against a child?"
Linghu blushed.
He did not want to either but he felt aggrieved!
If news of him being beaten up by a child were to spread, he would not be able to survive in Howling Moon Mountain anymore!
"Hmph, you bunch of bad guys. Come at me together! I'm not afraid!"
Right then, the boy's childish voice sounded.
"F * ck!"
This time round, Linghu could not take it anymore. Ignoring Qing Qing's attempts to stop him, he charged forward and cursed, "You brat, let's see how your Grandpa Hu will deal with you!"
"Count me in!"
The Golden Lion could not hold it in any longer and wanted to join in the fun as well.
Monkey, Linghu and the Golden Lion lunged forward.
"Trap!"
The boy conjured hand seals with both hands and hollered softly.
Suddenly, tree branches grew out of thin air beneath the feet of monkey and the other two, forming a cage that trapped the three of them within!
The three of them released their methods one after another but could not break out!
Although the peach blossom tree branches were only as thick as a baby's arm, they were unusually tough and invulnerable to weapons, fire and water!
"Roar!"
Linghu and the Golden Lion reverted to their true forms.
However, the Golden Lion's sharp claws could not sever the peach blossom tree branches.
Linghu made use of the four incomparably sharp tiger claws that he had fused with previously and managed to sever a few peach blossom tree branches. However, the tree branches were endless and filled in the gaps rapidly.
Monkey's situation was not much better either.
He summoned Imminent and broke a few tree branches.
However, Qian Jun was entangled by the newly grown branches. Layer by layer, the roots were intertwined and the joints were intertwined. It was completely trapped!
"Hmph!"
It was only at this moment that the boy revealed a smug expression. Waving his fists, he said crisply, "Baddie, now you know how strong I am!"
