NOVPUB"Jiang Family truly deserves to be the overt ruler of this land, so easily fulfilling my request!"
Inside the Floating Cloud Cave Mansion, Su Changkong gazed at the True Soul Banner in his hand and couldn’t help but sigh.
For other sects, gathering the remnant soul of the True Beast that Su Changkong required certainly wouldn’t have been so easy, but for the Jiang Family, it was mere trifle!
"Facing the Five Animal True Beast will definitely take my Five Animal Frolics to the next level!"
Su Changkong’s eyes burned with passion as he closely examined the interior of the True Soul Banner.
Within the True Soul Banner, Su Changkong saw four remnant souls of True Beasts, each different in size and characteristics.
One was a Spirit Deer enveloped in a seven-colored divine light, another, a Giant Bear covered in brown fur, larger than mountains and exuding a robust strength, one had long arms reaching to its knees, a black-furred Giant Ape with elongated arms.
And one was a strange bird, ethereal in form, legless, with only one wing.
"Seven-colored Divine Deer, Earthquake Bear, Arm-lengthening Demon Ape, Escaping Virtual Divine Bird…"
In Su Changkong’s mind, information about these four True Beasts from their past lives surfaced, originating from the True Soul Banner itself.
These four True Beasts, once immensely powerful, had all been killed in a siege by human Martial Saints, and the first Sect Leader of the Thousand Beasts Sect, a Great Divine Power Martial Saint, had collected a substantial amount of True Beast souls to create the Divine Artifact True Soul Banner, including theirs.
"Nothing is eternal and indestructible, powerful as the True Beasts were, they perished, and even the presently flourishing Ancient Holy Country could potentially suffer a catastrophe like the True Beasts of old."
Su Changkong thought to himself, resolved that the only way to not be eliminated by time was to continually strengthen oneself!
Without hesitation, Su Changkong then took out the Mirror of All Things and used it to extract the remnant souls of the four True Beasts from the True Soul Banner, allowing the Mirror of All Things to project their forms.
"Whoosh!"
After absorbing the remnant souls of the True Beasts, under Su Changkong’s urging, the Mirror of All Things grew from the size of a palm to incomprehensibly huge, seemingly reflecting the heavens and the earth.
In the mirror’s surface, the form of a black-furred long-armed Giant Ape slowly emerged and solidified, stepping out from the Mirror of All Things.
Boom!
An aura belonging to True Beasts spread throughout the Floating Cloud Cave Mansion. Ordinary people facing this tremendous pressure would have their bodies collapse, its power far surpassing ordinary Saint Warriors!
True Beasts, inherently extraordinary, mature to rival Saint Warriors, and among Saint Warriors, only a handful of elite can compare. True Beasts not only possess immensely strong physical bodies but also wield powerful Innate Divine Abilities!
This Arm-lengthening Demon Ape, hundreds of meters tall, every hair seemingly a towering tree, fixed its bloodshot eyes upon Su Changkong.
As a True Beast hunted down by humans, it harbored immense hatred toward the human race, especially now that it was summoned in projection form by some Divine Skill; it was desperate to tear Su Changkong to shreds!
However, due to the limitations of the Mirror of All Things, it could not initiate an attack on Su Changkong.
"Come on, if you can kill me, that will prove your capability!"
Su Changkong spoke commandingly with fierce eyes, already impatient to engage in combat to refine and elevate his Five Animal Frolics.
"Roar!"
With the command to lift the restrictions given by Su Changkong, the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape’s eyes gleamed with savage murderous intent, opened its huge mouth, and let out a deafening roar.
And then, without any hesitation, the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape struck, its gigantic palm descending from above toward Su Changkong, the immense force threatening to crush and shatter the very earth beneath it!
"Boom!"
Su Changkong unfolded his movement technique, taking a lateral step. The Arm-lengthening Demon Ape’s palm missed, smashing the ground within a radius of several miles into fragments and depressions, shaking everything around. The afterimage left by Su Changkong was torn to shreds!
Failing to hit its target, fury intensified in the eyes of the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape. Without pausing, it stretched out its right arm, viciously reaching for Su Changkong.
"Hmm?"
This grab startled Su Changkong, as, despite maximizing his movement technique and creating distance between them, the ape’s grab seemed to reach across the Ends of the Earth. As its five pillar-like fingers closed, they actually seized Su Changkong!
"This is the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape’s Divine Skill! It can ’Catching Stars and Moon,’ catching the opponent with its reach, and unless countered with the same Divine Skill, captivity is the only outcome!"
Su Changkong immediately realized that the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape had deployed its Divine Skill.
"Nether Tiger Roar Kill!"
Without thought and not waiting for the giant fingers to clasp fully, Su Changkong’s Mysterious Tortoise Golden Core trembled within him, merging with the Nether Soul Tiger’s Divine Skill characteristics for his attack.
"Roar!"
A soul-shaking tiger’s roar burst forth, causing the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape to tremble, briefly delaying its movements and allowing Su Changkong to dodge its direct capture.
Enraged, the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape, with its elongated arms, bombarded him with continuous blows and grabs, shaking both sun and moon.
Su Changkong pushed his Mysterious Tortoise Golden Core to its limits, intermittently using Nether Tiger Roar Kill to influence the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape, barely coping with its fierce assaults.
"This Arm-lengthening Demon Ape’s Divine Skill can ’Catching Stars and Moon,’ move mountains and shrink hills, capturing anything seen or felt."
During the battle, Su Changkong gradually comprehended the function of the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape’s Divine Skill, his eyes gleaming, engrossed in the fight with the ape.
After several hours, the energy of the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape was depleted, and it vanished into the air; Su Changkong was left sitting cross-legged, keenly reliving the battle, mentally refining the intricacies of the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape’s Divine Skill, integrating them into his own boxing technique.
As time ticked away, Su Changkong twice conjured projections of the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape, sparring with them, personally understanding its Divine Skill, while refining his own Five Animal Frolics during the process.
Three months flew by, and Su Changkong’s version of the Animal Play had evolved to a new realm.
"Rumble!"
Sitting cross-legged, Su Changkong suddenly reached out with his palm, capturing from the air. Ten miles away, within the Floating Cloud Cave Mansion, a hundred-meter-high mountain was uprooted by him. Between his tightly clenched fingers, he compressed and squeezed the mountain to the size of a human head, the surrounding air bursting from the compression!
It was as if a Demon Ape was stretching its arm, catching stars and seizing the moon!
Five Animal Frolics (Tier 11 Shaking Ancestral Brilliance 41%)
Su Changkong’s Five Animal Frolics were rapidly advancing!
"This move, based on Demon Ape Capturing Space and integrated with the mystique of the Arm-lengthening Demon Ape’s Divine Skill, shall be called Arm-lengthening Demon Ape; it’s a move that can move mountains and shrink hills, capturing the enemy. Even if the opponent is extremely fast, it’s hard to avoid the capture of Arm-lengthening Demon Ape!"
Su Changkong nodded in satisfaction, feeling his Five Animal Frolics steadily advancing toward a completely new realm!
