"Miss Die?"
Su Zimo's mind jolted as he rejected that thought.
The person who grabbed him was tall and strong. His body was covered with long hair and he emitted a nauseating smell. How could it be Die Yue?
Su Zimo tried his best to open his eyes, trying to see the person's appearance clearly.
However, a wave of exhaustion surged in his heart and Su Zimo's vision became increasingly blurry.
He could only vaguely see that the black figure seemed to be holding something in his hand. He swung around in the air above the canyon at an extremely fast speed. He was agile and light. In a short while, he had leaped to the top of the canyon and escaped the encirclement of the wolf pack.
"Ga ga!"
The black figure turned back and looked at the many wolves in the canyon. He let out a burst of creepy laughter. After which, he carried Su Zimo and scurried away. His figure disappeared into the forest.
…
After an unknown period of time, Su Zimo woke up slowly. He struggled to sit up. He felt pain all over his body and his muscles and bones were numb.
Su Zimo lowered his head and saw that the wounds on his body had been smeared with a layer of unknown medicinal herbs. There was a faint cooling sensation.
He did not know what was smeared on the parts that were not injured. It emitted a pungent smell that was unpleasant to the nose.
Su Zimo frowned slightly and looked around.
This was a cave. It was rather spacious and did not have any special decorations. However, there were many wolf skins hanging on the walls.
At this moment, a rustling sound came from the entrance of the cave. A tall figure entered. His footsteps were a little strange. He seemed to be jumping and hopping on the ground.
Su Zimo focused his gaze and was stunned on the spot.
The person who entered was not a human, but a monkey …
He was actually saved by a monkey?
Su Zimo had mixed feelings. For the past six months, he had killed at least eight hundred spirit beasts in Cang Lang Mountain Range. He did not expect that he would be saved by a spirit monkey in the end.
This spirit monkey looked very ordinary. It was just that its arms were extremely long. They hung down naturally and completely exceeded its knees. Moreover, there was a red glow in the depths of its eyes. It was somewhat strange.
"Thank you."
Su Zimo cupped his fists at the spirit monkey.
The spirit monkey curled its lips in an extremely human-like manner. It did not appreciate Su Zimo's gratitude. It waved its arms, pointed at the wolf skin hanging on the wall and cried out for a while.
In the end, the spirit monkey pointed at Su Zimo, stretched out a finger and shook it contemptuously.
He had become a demon!
Besides not knowing how to speak, this spirit monkey was no different from an ordinary person.
The spirit monkey could even perfectly express the emotions of an adult through gestures and expressions.
Su Zimo couldn't help but laugh. He asked tentatively, "Are you saying that you didn't want to save me at all? It's just because you have a grudge against these wolves?"
The spirit monkey grinned and nodded.
"In that case, we have a common enemy. We can work together in the future."
Su Zimo had been cooped up in Cang Lang Mountain Range for half a year. He also wanted to find someone to talk to. The spirit monkey in front of him had extremely high intelligence and was no different from a human. It was a good person to talk to.
"Bah!"
The spirit monkey spat. Its face was full of disdain. It made a disdainful gesture at Su Zimo, as if mocking Su Zimo for being too weak.
"…"
Su Zimo was dumbfounded. He was actually despised by a monkey.
After all, this was the 'monkey' who saved his life. Su Zimo could not say anything. He looked a little embarrassed.
Su Zimo looked at the sky through the hole. Suddenly, a doubt arose in his heart.
It had been at least a day since he fainted. Why did the pack of wolves not chase after him this time?
Smelling the strong and pungent smell on his body, Su Zimo's eyes lit up. He could not help but ask, "Do you have any way to conceal my smell and avoid the wolves' sense of smell?"
"Ga ga ga ga!"
Upon hearing this question, the spirit monkey opened its big mouth and laughed proudly. Its eyes were full of ridicule.
Looking at the spirit monkey's eyes, Su Zimo suddenly had an ominous premonition.
The spirit monkey bent its body, squatted down and made a defecating posture. Its palms were placed below the buttocks. Thereafter, it wiped its body randomly.
"Is the thing smeared on my body your feces?" Su Zimo's face was ghastly pale. He asked with difficulty.
"Ga ga ga!"
The spirit beast raised its head and laughed loudly. It waved its arms and jumped around on the spot, as if it had done something proud.
"…"
Su Zimo felt as if he was struck by lightning. He resisted the urge to swear. He gritted his teeth and said word by word, "You damn monkey, I …"
Seeing that Su Zimo was disgusted, the spirit monkey was even happier. It could not stop crying and was extremely excited.
Su Zimo gritted his teeth and said, "Damn monkey, wait till I recover from my injuries. I will definitely fight with you!"
The spirit monkey did not seem to mind. It just stood on the spot, placed its hands on its waist and laughed arrogantly.
Su Zimo's entire body was in pain. For the time being, he could not do anything to it. He lay on the ground and tried his best to calm himself down.
Just as he lay down, Su Zimo saw a red fruit swaying not far above his head. It was very juicy and exuded a tempting fragrance.
Su Zimo felt that his mouth and tongue were dry. Without thinking much, he reached out and plucked the red fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.
The fruit melted in his mouth. The sweet juice turned into a warm current and flowed into his stomach.
The spirit monkey inadvertently saw this scene. Its pupils contracted and its laughter stopped abruptly.
Su Zimo smacked his lips. He felt that this fruit tasted good and wanted to look for another one. However, he suddenly sensed a murderous aura in the cave!
The air seemed to have solidified.
"Oh?"
Su Zimo was shocked. He sat up instinctively and almost bumped into the spirit monkey's big face.
The spirit monkey glared with a pair of blood-red eyes. It bared its teeth and was panting heavily. It looked like it could not wait to tear Su Zimo into pieces!
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat. He vaguely guessed that the fruit that he had eaten Just Now was most likely not ordinary.
"Cough, you disgusted me. I ate your fruit. We are even." Su Zimo felt a little guilty.
"Ow ow!"
Upon hearing Su Zimo's words, the spirit monkey was furious. It jumped up from the ground, thumping its chest and stamping its feet, making loud banging sounds.
The spirit monkey went crazy and banged its head against the mountain wall at the side. The mountain rocks shattered and splattered in all directions. The momentum was terrifying.
Su Zimo was secretly shocked.
This spirit monkey was extremely powerful. Even if he was in his best condition, he might not be its match.
Fortunately, the spirit monkey did not vent its anger on him. It just kept pounding the mountain rocks, as if it wanted to break through the mountain wall at the side.
At this moment, Su Zimo suddenly felt that his abdomen was gradually heating up. It became boiling hot. Waves of warmth flowed to his limbs and bones, emitting endless heat.
Su Zimo's skin started to turn red. It was as if there was a huge furnace in his body that was roasting his body. The swelling pain was unbearable.
"Psst!"
Su Zimo gasped. He looked down and saw that the flesh around the wound on his body was wriggling crazily. At a speed that was visible to the naked eye, the flesh was knitting together and healing, leaving behind scars.
In the blink of an eye, the scars fell off and the skin was regenerated.
Even the piece of flesh that was torn off by the wolf on his thigh was regenerating crazily at this moment.
"Ah!"
Su Zimo howled to the sky. He felt as if his entire body was about to explode!
"Oh no, this surge of energy is too strong. If this goes on, my body will explode!"
Su Zimo did not have time to think. He circulated the Body Tempering and Tendons Transformation meridians immediately and started breathing and expelling.
At the same time, Su Zimo leaped up and executed the Plow Heaven Stride. He dashed around the cave crazily. He kept practicing the moves from The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness, wanting to vent this surge of energy.
The spirit monkey seemed to be frightened by this scene. It stopped going crazy and stared at Su Zimo who was even crazier than it was, dumbfounded.
A surge of unbearable essence energy was running rampant in Su Zimo's body, nourishing his flesh, tempering his skin and stretching his tendons.
His Body Tempering and Tendons Transformation realms were improving rapidly!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The tendons in Su Zimo's body shook and the sound of a bowstring vibrating could be heard.
Initial success of Tendons Transformation!
His body's flexibility and agility had improved. His footsteps were obviously lighter and his strength was increasing rapidly!
According to Die Yue, as long as he achieved initial success of Tendons Transformation, Su Zimo's strength would be enough to threaten a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior!
But even so, Su Zimo was still unable to neutralize the huge surge of essence energy in his body.
Su Zimo's skin cracked and his body was covered in bloody scars. He looked hideous and frightening.
"What exactly is this thing?!"
Su Zimo was shocked. He did not expect that his life would be in danger just by eating a random fruit.
In actual fact, this red fruit was extremely famous in the cultivation world. It was a spiritual item, the Scarlet Flame Fruit, that bloomed and bore fruit once in a thousand years.
The essence energy contained in the Scarlet Flame Fruit was huge and rich. It was a great tonic. Its medicinal properties were like fire, scorching and violent. No one dared to eat it raw. Most of them supplemented it with other spirit herbs to refine elixirs to neutralize the medicinal properties before it could be consumed.
If not for the fact that Su Zimo cultivated The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness and had a strong physique, he would have been burned to ashes by the heat inside the Scarlet Flame Fruit the moment he swallowed it.
The spirit monkey had been guarding this Scarlet Flame Fruit for many years. These few days were the best time for the Scarlet Flame Fruit to ripen.
It had originally intended to pick a day to eat this Scarlet Flame Fruit. Unexpectedly, Su Zimo swallowed it in one mouthful, leaving not even the fruit skin behind.
One could imagine how frustrated and furious the spirit monkey was Just Now.
But now, seeing Su Zimo in such pain, the spirit monkey felt a lingering fear in its heart.
The spirit monkey was extremely intelligent. It could naturally tell that even if it were to consume this Scarlet Flame Fruit, its outcome would not be much better. It would be hard to escape death.
At the thought of this, the spirit monkey felt a little guilty.
No matter what, it was ultimately the reason why Su Zimo was in such a predicament.
The spirit monkey scratched its ears and cheeks. It looked at Su Zimo, who was in extreme pain and whose entire body was red. However, it could not think of any solution.
