This day, a man and a monkey rushed over from outside Ethereal Peak, looking travel-worn.
They passed through the fog formation and landed on the main peak of Ethereal Peak, attracting some attention.
"Eh, Junior Brother Su is back."
"That monkey beside him is his spirit beast as well?"
"Junior Brother Su seems to have a special liking for spirit beasts. Including that monkey, he already has two spirit beasts."
"There are too many spirit beasts. If the power of the blood oath is distributed, it will definitely weaken. I think something will happen to Su Zimo sooner or later!"
When the sect disciples saw the man and monkey, they had different gazes and discussed fervently.
When Su Zimo had just advanced to early-stage Foundation Establishment and entered the inner sect, there were inner sect disciples who came to provoke him.
In the end, they were swept away by his thunderous methods. Thereafter, no one dared to disturb him until Su Zimo left the sect and headed to the Sky Treasure Auction House.
"Roar!"
Monkey felt extremely frustrated after being pointed at by so many strangers. It bared its fangs and roared at the cultivators not far away with a menacing expression. Demonic qi burst forth with a chilling killing intent!
Monkey's fur stood on end and it looked like it had expanded in size with a frightening aura.
If not for the fact that Su Zimo was beside it, monkey might have already charged forward and killed everyone given its unruly nature.
Many cultivators were shocked.
Monkey's body was stained with endless blood.
If one wanted to survive in a place like Cang Lang Mountain Range, they would have to fight almost every day and experience a baptism of blood and death.
Monkey's aura was much more violent and bloodthirsty than Linghu and little crane!
Frowning slightly, Su Zimo raised his palm and patted monkey's shoulder gently, indicating that there was no need for it to be nervous.
Along the way, Su Zimo had repeatedly reminded monkey to rein in its wild nature at Misty Peak and not to reveal its ferocious side and fight to the death.
Monkey harrumphed and two streams of air came out of its nostrils as its fur gradually calmed down.
Before long, the man and monkey disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Hmph, that beast is really arrogant!"
"It's only because Junior Brother Su is around. If not, I would have killed that beast personally. How dare it act so arrogantly in front of us?"
Many cultivators pretended to scold the man and monkey when they saw them disappear.
…
The door of the cave abode was wide open and Linghu and little crane were sprawled inside, taking a nap.
Little crane was the first to sense it and opened its eyes.
When little crane saw that it was Su Zimo, it cried out in joy.
Linghu opened his eyes and lazily looked over. When he saw that it was Su Zimo, he immediately jumped up from the ground.
Monkey did not have much of a reaction when he saw the tiger and crane. He merely curled his lips and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Following behind Su Zimo, Monkey swaggered in.
"This is Monkey. He was once my friend in Cang Lang Mountain Range."
Su Zimo then pointed at Linghu and Little Crane, saying, "This is Linghu and that is Little Crane. The three of you should stay together from now on. Don't fight."
"Chi!"
When he heard that, monkey sneered and extended his finger, waving it in front of Linghu and little crane provocatively.
Even though he did not say anything, monkey's meaning was clear – the two of you can't fight and are no match for me!
Linghu had just entered Foundation Establishment realm and was at the stage of being arrogant.
Furthermore, to Linghu, he had been with Su Zimo the longest.
If he were to be ridden on by a monkey that came later, how would he live his life in the future?
There was no way Linghu could hold himself back when he saw monkey's gesture.
"Roar!"
Linghu lowered his body and pretended to pounce on his prey. His eyes shone with a ferocious glint as though he could charge out at any moment.
"Caw, caw!"
On the other side, little crane could not stand it any longer and called out to monkey, ready to pounce.
After all, little crane had a better relationship with Linghu.
Suddenly, Su Zimo felt a headache coming on when he heard the continuous roars in the cave …
"Boom!"
Before long, monkey and Linghu collided head-on.
It was a pure burst of strength without any fancy moves.
After a brief pause, Linghu was sent flying by monkey.
Slamming into the stone wall behind him, the cave abode shook and dust fell. Linghu felt as though his tendons and bones were about to break.
Monkey had cultivated the cultivation technique imparted to him by Die Yue and would mutate even if his bloodline was ordinary.
As for Linghu, he was truly just an ordinary walking beast.
Even if they were of the same cultivation realm, Linghu would be taught a terrible lesson by monkey, let alone the difference in their cultivation realms!
The difference in bloodline was way too great.
With a flip, monkey rode on Linghu's body and raised his massive fists, smashing down on Linghu's head.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
After a few consecutive hits, the Spirit Tiger was in a daze. It was completely stunned.
Swoosh!
Little crane pounced forward from the side and extended a pair of sharp claws that shone with a cold glint, grabbing towards monkey's back.
Without even turning back, monkey swung his rod casually.
The wind howled!
Little crane was alarmed and did not dare to take the blow head-on, dodging to another spot to deal with the monkey.
Against little crane that could soar into the air at any moment, monkey was helpless as well. It could only ride on Linghu's body and roar at little crane.
"Ow! Ow!"
"Caw, caw!"
Little crane's voice was loud and excited as it replied.
Linghu who was sprawled beneath monkey would roar from time to time as well.
The cries of the three demon beasts sounded one after another and Su Zimo could no longer make out what they were saying.
However, he could roughly guess that monkey wanted to be the king and leader of the three of them.
However, Linghu and little crane refused to give in and were indignant.
Monkey took the demon beast egg from Su Zimo's hands and pointed at it, howling for a long time.
Before long, the three spirit beasts came to a consensus.
They would take turns to incubate the demon beast egg and whoever the spirit beast chose to follow would be their king!
There were 24 hours in a day. Initially, the three spirit beasts could split it equally for eight hours.
Unexpectedly, Linghu became the most pitiful one once more …
Linghu's eight hours were forcefully taken up by monkey and little crane, leaving him with only four hours left.
…
In another cave abode on Misty Peak.
It was dark and quiet. Feng Haoyu assumed a lotus position with many spirit stones around him.
His cultivation realm was already at perfected Foundation Establishment and he had even unlocked a meridian!
All of a sudden!
A sinister wind blew.
Feng Haoyu opened his eyes and was in no hurry to survey his surroundings. Instead, he was deep in thought, as though he was waiting for something.
"Su Zimo is back."
Before long, a hoarse voice sounded. It was erratic but it came from within Feng Haoyu's cave abode.
"The disheveled old man has already obtained a tempering technique. If Su Zimo is left alone to comprehend it, there won't be much time left for Misty Peak."
"It's easy to kill him,"
Feng Haoyu frowned. "However, how are we going to deal with the other three legacy disciples of Misty Peak at the same time? If we cripple those three legacy disciples and Su Zimo, there's almost no one in Misty Peak who has the ability to leave their names on the ranking lists of the sect competition! "
"Don't worry, the opportunity is here,"
The hoarse voice sounded, "After this battle, you and I can return to the sect with success."
