Jiang Tian tossed the Heavenly Court sword to Huo Qingtian. He thought to himself, I'll erase the spiritual imprint on it and refine it into my own flying sword. My combat power will definitely multiply, and I'll be able to easily kill a half-step Immortal State cultivator!
Huo Qingtian was so touched that tears welled up in his eyes. He hurriedly said, "Thank you, Master Kang, for giving me this treasure!"
"You sure know how to take advantage of me!"
Jiang Tian glared at him. "I didn't say I'm giving you this sword. It's useless to give it to you! Hold it for me first! "
"Oh, I'm so sorry, Master Kang …"
Huo Qingtian was speechless. He was extremely embarrassed. You should've explained it clearly. You've made me happy for nothing.
Then, Jiang Tian removed the metal rod and the golden armor.
This metal rod was made of a strange metal called Golden Essence Metal.
Although it was not as good as the Immortal Tear Black Gold, it was far better than any weapon material on Earth.
There were many defensive patterns carved on the golden armor. It was also a Dharma treasure, but too much time had passed, and its Dharmic powers had been lost.
However, when Jiang Tian removed the golden armor and metal rod, the Sacred Battle Ape's skeleton seemed to have lost its support and instantly fell to the ground. It cracked and disintegrated, turning into white bones and dried up body parts.
Jiang Tian was not surprised by this.
The Sacred Battle Ape relied on the armor and the remaining Dharmic powers in the metal rod to maintain its physical body. Without them, it would have been reduced to ashes.
However, he sighed again in his heart.
It was really inconvenient to not have a storage Dharma artifact. There were not many things here, and Huo Qingtian was almost unable to carry it all.
Jiang Tian and Huo Qingtian searched carefully again.
They did not find any concrete clues about the Immortal Ruins in this ancient cave or the Sacred Battle Ape's skeleton.
However, at least now Jiang Tian could confirm that the Immortal Ruins were real, and not just a vague legend.
"It's time to catch the monkey!" Jiang Tian said calmly.
"Yeah, where's the monkey you're looking for?" Huo Qingtian looked around in confusion.
"Don't worry!"
Jiang Tian ignited the charcoal and placed it on the pressure cooker. After the water boiled, he removed the pit of the peach and threw the yak meat into the cooker together with the skin and meat.
After that, Jiang Tian added more medicinal herbs. Instantly, it turned into a pot of black soup.
"That's disgusting. Are we going to eat that?" Huo Qingtian was puzzled.
Everyone says that Master Kang is a wife-doting demon. Your culinary skills … don't seem to be too good. Is this edible?
Jiang Tian ignored him, but strangely enough, although the broth was ugly, there was a strong aroma coming from it. It immediately made Huo Qingtian salivate, and his fingers itched.
It's disgusting … but I also want to eat it! This feeling was truly ecstatic!
Huo Qingtian didn't dare to look anymore.
"It's not for us to eat. Let's lure the demon monkey's descendant first. It'll be of great use later!"
Jiang Tian used his divine sense to transmit his voice. He also cast a talisman into the peach broth and said, "Put on the golden armor and pretend to be asleep!"
"Ha, it has descendants …"
Huo Qingtian was stunned. He felt like he had been tricked. Why did it seem like he had become the bait?
As expected, Jiang Tian restrained his aura and cast an invisibility talisman on himself. He instantly disappeared.
"As expected … I've become the bait …"
Huo Qingtian wanted to cry, but no tears came out. However, he still obediently put on the golden armor and closed his eyes.
The broth rippled with the fragrance. The ancient cave was quiet. Only the whistling of the wind outside the cave and Huo Qingtian's own rapid heartbeat could be heard.
After two hours, there was a thump! Thump! Thump! Footsteps that were as intimidating as muffled thunder, and a wave of bloody aura assaulted their faces.
Huo Qingtian was alarmed. He opened his eyes a little and almost screamed in fright before suffocating.
He saw a three-meter-tall giant red ape glaring at him with its golden eyes. Then, its venomous gaze swept across the naked Sacred Battle Ape's corpse and landed on his armor and the iron staff in his hand.
The giant ape was like a demon god. Its eyes shot out rays of sharp golden light, and its body was surrounded by a demonic aura. Its aura was terrifying. The demonic aura was so dense that even a drop of it could crush an internal force master.
Suddenly, its face twisted. It bared its fangs and roared. It was like a cat catching a mouse. Its huge, fan-like palm covered in red fur grabbed at Huo Qingtian.
"Master Kang! Come out and fight the monster! "
Huo Qingtian stomped on the ground and shot out while screaming for help.
It could be said that he had never felt such a terrifying sense of danger even when he was fighting against Lin Zhenyu.
Whoosh!
Dazzling sparks flew. The descendant of the battle ape's claws scratched Huo Qingtian's stomach, leaving deep marks on the hard stone wall. If it had clawed Huo Qingtian, he would have been seriously injured, if not killed on the spot.
"Get out of the way!"
Jiang Tian suddenly appeared behind the descendant of the battle ape. He waved his fingers and a Demonic Flame Qi Weapon swept toward the ape like a knife cutting through water.
Bang! With a loud sound, the giant ape was immediately sent flying by Jiang Tian's sword strike, causing the ground to shake and the mountains to shake as it fell flat on its back.
The giant ape got up and charged at Jiang Tian again.
"I will kill you if you don't stop!"
Jiang Tian let out a cold snort and slammed down with his palm again, directly slamming the body that was as heavy as a mountain into the ground. His knees smashed into the ground, shattering the rocks and creating a deep pit with a radius of one meter.
Jiang Tian was amazed by the power of the battle ape.
Although the descendant of the Battle Ape was small in size, it was a true Primordial Demonic Beast. Moreover, it was an Untainted Demonic Beast. It could not be compared to the White Ape that Jiang Tian had killed in search of the Life Crystal. It was even ten times or a hundred times stronger.
Jiang Tian knew that the ape's body was strong, so he used all of his strength. Even a Transcendent State Cultivator would have been smashed into pieces, but the attack didn't hurt the ape at all. Even the Li Fire Qi Weapon didn't injure it severely.
Moreover, the ape had cultivated demon arts and was able to transform. Its combat power was equal to that of a Grandmaster in the Martial arts world.
The ape roared and attacked again and again. Its combat power was monstrous. It punched and kicked, shattering the stone table and shaking the mountain.
However, it couldn't hurt Jiang Tian at all. Jiang Tian countered every attack. The ape either knelt on the ground or flew away.
In the end, the ape was so tired that it couldn't get up. Jiang Tian beat it until it was full of injuries.
It knew that it was no match for Jiang Tian, so it didn't fight back. It sat on the ground and wiped its tears. It looked at the corpse of the Battle Sacred Ape with sadness and regret.
Yes, it was very sad. Its expression was as vivid as a human's.
As it cried, it moved forward and hugged the head of the Battle Sacred Ape, kissing and touching it. Tears rolled down its face. It looked up to the sky and pounded its chest, letting out a heart-wrenching cry.
"The ape seems to be very sad …" Huo Qingtian came over and said sympathetically.
"Well, it probably thought that its ancestor wasn't dead yet …" Jiang Tian smiled.
This ape should have a hundred years of cultivation. It wasn't as old as the Red-eyed White Ape, but it had already gained intelligence.
Then, Jiang Tian looked at the descendant of the Battle Sacred Ape and said calmly, "Your ancestor has been dead for a long time. What's the use of you guarding it here?"
The ape looked at Jiang Tian and became even sadder. It hugged the corpse and cried again.
"Alright, alright. Look at you. You're so hungry. Hurry up and eat some yak meat!" Jiang Tian threw a big piece of yak meat to it.
As if it felt Jiang Tian's kindness, it took the yak meat and ate it. However, it still cried sadly.
"There seems to be something in your stomach?"
Jiang Tian frowned when he saw that there was a bulge in its stomach. There were stitches on it and pus was oozing out of it.
The ape pointed at the Sacred Battle Ape's corpse and then at its own stomach, making a sewing motion.
"Oh, I understand. Do you want me to help you take out the thing inside and treat the wound?"
Jiang Tian said with a smile. He had already understood something after using his divine sense.
"Woo woo woo woo!"
The ape's face was filled with gratitude and joy. It pursed its lips and cheered. It kept kowtowing to Jiang Tian, seeming very willing to do so.
Jiang Tian stepped forward and formed a Qi weapon at his fingertips. He quickly peeled open the wound.
There was a scroll made of animal skin inside. However, it was different from the words in the Ruins of Immortality that Jiang Tian had seen before.
"This is also a map. I don't know where it leads …" Jiang Tian was not in a hurry. He let Huo Qingtian take it first.
"This is the Nine Swords Immortal's … tomb …" The ape suddenly spoke in a muffled human voice.
"Damn, you know how to talk!" Jiang Tian smiled. Huo Qingtian was even more amazed.
"I'm not very good at it. There are very few Han people here …" The ape struggled to speak again.
"Nine Swords Immortal … Old Huo, do you know who he is?" Jiang Tian asked with a frown.
"I've never heard of him! He should be an ancient person. I'll look into it later … "Huo Qingtian shook his head.
"Enemy! He killed my ancestor. My father asked me to dig up his tomb and take revenge. However, I don't know where he is … "The ape said with a hint of resentment.
"F * ck, you Sacred Battle Apes are really daring! Very vicious. I like it! "
Jiang Tian praised. He took out a Detoxification Pill and crushed it. He mixed it with healing powder and sprinkled it on the wound. Then, he threaded a needle and stitched it up.
At this moment, he already had some understanding.
It seemed that the Nine Swords Immortal was from the Heavenly Court. He should be the culprit who killed the Battle Sacred Apes.
"You're so nice!" The ape looked at Jiang Tian gratefully with tears in its eyes. "Affectionate."
The ancient scroll in its stomach had tortured it for too long. Now that the pain was gone, it felt extremely relaxed and comfortable. Naturally, it was grateful to Jiang Tian.
"Don't look at me with such affectionate eyes. I'm scared!" Jiang Tian glanced at it from the corner of his eyes.
The ape was confused for a moment. Suddenly, it pointed at a red object and shook its head firmly.
"Haha!" Huo Qingtian laughed so hard that tears almost came out of his eyes.
"F * ck you!"
Jiang Tian was speechless.
After treating the wound, Jiang Tian slowly said, "If you want to thank me, then help me get the Empress Flower. Is that okay?"
The ape bowed and nodded repeatedly.
"You're a beginner demon. You should be able to transform, right?" Jiang Tian asked.
The ape nodded again.
Jiang Tian took off his down jacket and said, "Shrink it and let me wear it. What do you think you look like when you walk around with your penis swinging around every day?"
The ape cast a spell and its body shrunk, turning into a small monkey the height of an adult's calf.
After it was wrapped in a red down jacket, it no longer looked ferocious. Instead, it looked smart and cute, and it even looked comical.
