"Demon beast? Half-step Void Stage? "
Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang's pupils constricted and they had astonished expressions when they heard this.
A demonic beast was undoubtedly equivalent to a true Emptiness Stage Expert.
Not to mention a demon beast Monkey King, even a Half-step Void Stage Monkey King wasn't an existence they could go against.
"Young Master, then we'll …"
Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang looked at Duan Lingtian and were slightly hesitant.
Although the monkey wine was good, it was far from being as important as their lives.
"Act according to the circumstances."
Duan Lingtian brought Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang along as they lightly flashed through the trees, and everything within the gorge entered their eyes.
They could see those stone monkeys standing in groups of three to five everywhere.
"Young Master, is that monkey wine?"
Duan Lingtian looked towards the direction Zhang Qian pointed at. There was a small pond there, and the pond was half filled with liquid. The liquid was crimson red, and it was exactly the same color as the monkey wine in the memories of Samsara Emperor Wu.
"Right, that's monkey wine."
Duan Lingtian nodded. "We have to think of a way to steal some monkey wine now."
Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang nodded, as they were extremely interested in the monkey wine as well.
"How about this, the two of you draw away the surrounding stone monkeys … I'll seize the opportunity to collect the monkey wine, how about it?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang, and when he noticed they were slightly hesitant, he instantly scolded with a smile. "Do you think I'll harm the two of you? Even the strongest of these stone monkeys is inferior to the two of you … So long as you draw them away at the first possible moment, I can collect the monkey wine. "
"Young Master, you can discern their strength?"
Zhang Qian stared with a face full of astonishment, as he suddenly noticed that this Young Master was truly omnipotent.
"The strength of a stone monkey can be determined based on the color of their fur … Look, those three stone monkeys have dark yellow fur, and they're minors. Their strength is only at the Origin Core Stage, and they're the youngest amongst these stone monkeys. Those with slightly yellow fur are all adult stone monkeys, and the strongest is at most at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul Stage. "
"As for the stone monkeys at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage or above, their fur is slightly closer to dark gold. However, there are no such stone monkeys here … My guess is that the stronger stone monkeys should be in the monkey cave. "
Duan Ling Tian looked at the Stone Monkeys in the gorge as if he was familiar with them.
"Young Master, you even know this?"
Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang were both astonished. They immediately asked, "Where is the monkey cave?"
"Behind the forest over there, do you see it?"
Duan Lingtian pointed to the side of the mountain in the distance. There was a cave shrouded in the forest. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't have noticed it …
"Young Master, we'll be off then."
Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang looked at each other, took a deep breath, and said to Duan Lingtian.
"Go! Remember, don't hurt them, or the consequences will be unimaginable! "
Duan Lingtian nodded, but he was a little nervous. "Let's take a gamble! He hoped that there was no Monkey King here. Even if there was a Monkey King, he hoped that it was not a 'demon beast'. If it was a demonic beast, I wouldn't be able to escape even if I took the Monkey Wine. "
Riches and honor were found in danger!
Duan Lingtian was taking a gamble now!
Samsara Emperor Wu had encountered groups of stone monkeys many times, but only twice had he encountered a demon beast Monkey King.
He didn't believe that his luck was really so 'good.'
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang responded. Their figures flashed and appeared before a group of Stone Monkeys, startling all the Stone Monkeys in the canyon.
The stone monkeys in groups of three to five obviously didn't expect that humans would appear, and after being stunned for a moment, they pounced towards Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang. Even the few stone monkeys that were guarding the pond that contained the Monkey Wine now chased towards Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang.
"Now is the time!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up when he saw the group of stone monkeys within the canyon chasing Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang out of the canyon.
Spirit Serpent Movement Technique!
Duan Lingtian's strength exploded out, and 21 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form above him.
At that time, before he broke through to the eighth level of the Core Formation Stage, Duan Lingtian already had the strength of 19 ancient mammoths!
Half a month ago, he broke through to the eighth level of the Core Formation Stage and consumed the Dragon Blood Pill to complete the tempering of his fleshly body, so he had the strength of another two ancient mammoths.
His current strength was even slightly superior to a first level Origin Core Stage martial artist!
Duan Lingtian's eyes shone when he saw the pond that contained the Monkey Wine coming closer and closer.
Now, the Medicinal Cauldron appeared in his hand.
This was also the only container in his hand.
Bang!
Duan Lingtian's body descended onto the ground, and he descended beside the small pond.
However, right when Duan Lingtian intended to use the Medicinal Cauldron to collect the Monkey Wine, an awe-inspiring strong wind swept out and instantly arrived behind him.
Duan Lingtian's body froze.
"I can't be so unlucky, right?"
The golden figure that flashed by earlier caused traces of coldness to involuntarily arise within Duan Lingtian's heart.
When Duan Lingtian turned around, only through the bright moonlight did he notice that a stone monkey that was completely covered in golden fur had appeared before his eyes.
This stone monkey was a few times larger than an ordinary stone monkey, and was only slightly shorter than Duan Lingtian. Presently, its pair of golden eyes were staring at Duan Lingtian, and it revealed traces of hostility.
"Demon … Demon beast Monkey King!"
Duan Lingtian's body was slightly stiff. He never imagined that he would really be so unlucky, meeting a demon beast Monkey King on his first encounter with a stone monkey.
The demon beast Monkey King was an existence at the Void Prying Stage.
Moreover, Duan Lingtian could discern from the characteristics of the Monkey King before him that this Monkey King wasn't an existence that had just transformed into a demon beast.
Its strength was at least at the fourth level of the Void Prying Stage or above!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
Right at this moment, another group of stone monkeys flashed out from the monkey cave and surrounded Duan Lingtian in the center.
Amongst these stone monkeys, there were many existences with dark gold fur.
These stone monkeys were all existences at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage or above!
A trace of a bitter smile appeared on the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth.
Some things really couldn't be casually gambled …
The group of stone monkeys surrounded Duan Lingtian, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, and were extremely ferocious.
It seemed as if so long as the Monkey King gave the order, they would pounce over and tear Duan Lingtian into pieces.
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath and recovered his senses. He realized that if he wanted to survive, he could only put in more effort on the Monkey King before him …
Demon beasts had already begun to possess human nature and were able to understand human speech.
"Respected Monkey King, I have no ill intentions."
Duan Lingtian looked at the golden-haired Monkey King that stared coldly at him and tried to communicate with it.
"Roar!"
The golden-haired Monkey King roared in a low voice and pointed at the Monkey Wine in the nearby pool, as if it was angrily denouncing Duan Lingtian as a thief.
"This, Monkey King … I only want to ask for some wine to drink, I have no ill intentions! I didn't harm a single one of your people. "
Duan Lingtian gestured as he explained.
He felt a wave of bitterness in his heart.
When had he ever spoken so humbly?
And it was even towards a monkey!
However, when one was under the eaves, one had no choice but to lower one's head. If he wanted to survive, then he had to have a deep communication with the Monkey King and obtain its forgiveness.
"Roar roar ~"
The Monkey King roared twice more, and its icy cold eyes eased up slightly as it pointed towards outside the gorge.
"You … You want me to leave?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up, as he never imagined that the Stone Monkey King would be so easy to talk to.
"That … Can you give me some Monkey Wine?"
Realizing that he had escaped danger, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but seize the opportunity, and he pointed at the nearby pool as he probingly asked the Monkey King.
"Roar roar!"
Unexpectedly, the originally docile Monkey King immediately glared at him with its golden eyes, and its body was filled with a dense murderous aura.
"Alright … Alright … I'll leave, I'll leave now!"
Duan Lingtian hurriedly waved his hand and put away the medicinal cauldron in his hand. Under the escort of the Stone Monkeys, he walked out of the gorge step by step.
He thought to himself:
"In the future, when this young master's strength surpasses yours, I'll teach you a good lesson!"
Just as Duan Lingtian arrived at the exit of the gorge.
"Roar ~"
A mournful roar of a Stone Monkey was transmitted over.
"Not good!"
Duan Lingtian's expression changed. His first thought was, could it be that Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang didn't listen to him and hurt those Stone Monkeys?
If that was the case, he would really be doomed by Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang this time!
Just as Duan Lingtian's expression changed, the Monkey King also let out a furious roar. A group of Stone Monkeys once again surrounded Duan Lingtian, forcing him back.
Duan Lingtian laughed bitterly, and his heart was filled with trepidation.
He only hoped that it wasn't Zhang Qian and Zhao Gang that touched those Stone Monkeys.
Swoosh!
Right at this moment, a Stone Monkey that was twice the size of an ordinary Stone Monkey with fur between dark gold and gold entered the gorge. Crimson red blood was still ceaselessly dripping from the claws of this Stone Monkey.
On its back was a Stone Monkey with dark gold fur.
This Stone Monkey lay on the former's body with its arms hanging down, and its claws flickered with a sheen that was pitch black like ink. Obviously, it had been poisoned.
"Half-step Void Stage!"
Duan Lingtian looked at the Stone Monkey that carried the poisoned Stone Monkey in, and his pupils constricted as a trace of a bitter smile appeared on his face.
This group of Stone Monkeys seemed to be even more terrifying than he'd imagined!
Besides the demon beast Great Monkey King, there was also a Half-step Void Stage Second Monkey King.
"Wuwu ~"
The Second Monkey King put down the poisoned Stone Monkey on its back before flashing out of the gorge.
When it entered once more, it was carrying a jet black enormous python on its shoulder. The enormous python had already been killed, and there were many marks of being bitten and clawed on the enormous python's body.
This enormous python ought to be the spoils of war of the Second Monkey King!
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Duan Lingtian quickly recognized this enormous python after he searched the memories of Samsara Emperor Wu.
This was a Dark Cloud Python.
Looking at the markings on the Dark Cloud Python's body, Duan Lingtian estimated that its strength ought to be at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Stage.
Now, he'd roughly guessed the sequence of events. It ought to be the Dark Cloud Python that injured the poisoned Stone Monkey, and the Stone Monkey was poisoned by the Dark Cloud Python.
Later on, the Dark Cloud Python died at the hands of the Second Monkey King.
"The Dark Cloud Python's poison …"
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up, seeming to have thought of something happy.
Now, Duan Lingtian was able to discern that the poisoned Stone Monkey hadn't died, and was only bitten and poisoned.
Of course, if it wasn't detoxified in time, this Stone Monkey wouldn't be able to live for more than an hour.
"Wuwu ~"
Right at this moment, the group of Stone Monkeys swarmed over and dismembered the corpse of the Dark Cloud Python into a thousand pieces …
