Chapter 423: Primordial Demonic Ape
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Seeing Lan Shui’er standing still in shock, Zhou Bao wished to tread on her delicate face.
Step and crush it.
Lan Shui’er looked indecisive. After all, she had nourished the giant egg of the Primordial Fierce Beast for 150 years and had consumed countless energy and pneuma. It was almost done now. Once it hatched, it would be her biggest help, giving her a hand to improve her strength by several levels. With its aid, she could undergo several Thunder Tribulations and became a Seven-tribulation True Immortal, even an Eight- or Nine-tribulation True Immortal. It was a big opportunity for her, so how could she give it up?
“What a stupid woman!” Zhou Bao reproved secretly.
Now he had a rough idea of what was going on. Creatures of the primitive times like the Primordial Fierce Beast, generally speaking, had their own inheritance. In other words, they were born with wisdom and a vast knowledge in their bloodline, much smarter than the average man.
Lan Shui’er thought that after 150 years, she had been connected with the Fierce Beast in spirit. Zhou Bao now suspected that this cunning Fierce Beast had been playing with her.
Its purpose was to lower her guard and to help it find a sucker like Zhou Bao to hatch it. To put it bluntly, it had been coaxing her, while Lan Shui’er actually believed that it would help her after she hatched it.
“A gullible woman!” Zhou Bao shook his head in his heart, no longer counting on this Four-tribulation True Immortal and Tusk Island Owner. That is because in his Dantian, the Primitive Dragon Chimera Fire had already stirred.
The nature of the Dragon Chimera Mysterious Fire had been seduced by some spirit, and it was the nature of greed.
It was burning in Zhou Bao’s Dantian, affecting his thoughts.
Zhou Bao may have spent a short time practicing the Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique, but it almost reached the Basic level. It was because neither the Evil Qi nor the place he used was found in the temporal world. In addition, the Gang Qi also carried the spirit of the Primitive Dragon Chimera Fire. Under the influence of the Mysterious Fire, the Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique was more powerful than that practiced in a common way. At this moment, the giant egg was recklessly devouring Zhou Bao’s Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Essence, which also aroused the ferociousness of the Primitive Dragon Chimera’s Demonic Fire in the Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Essence.
This ferociousness was an innate greed of the Primitive Dragon Chimera Fire, a nature of desiring to devour everything.
When the Fierce Beast in the giant egg tried to devour all the Real Essence, a faint black flame appeared on Zhou Bao. The flame was very light and smoke-like, as if it could be dispersed at any time, but then it grew thicker and thicker and soon covered the Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Essence. Now, Zhou Bao was enveloped in this horrible black flame.
The ma.s.sive devouring force disappeared, and there was even a sound of whine from the giant egg.
“What are you doing?” Because of ‘the spirit connection’, Lan Shui’er immediately noticed something was wrong. She rushed to Zhou Bao and asked harshly.
“Are you stupid? This thing wants to devour all my Real Essence and try to devour my spirit! You’ve lost control of him. Spirit connection? Are you joking? You’ve been fooled!” Zhou Bao laughed grimly. The black flame fluttered, and the strong, weird heat made Lan Shui’er stepped back involuntary. “You, it’s impossible!”
“Impossible? You are no fool. As you have seen, the boiling feeling is true, right? It has included you in its devouring list, so you should have felt it. Stop lying to yourself. It’s not easy for a Primordial Fierce Beast to surrender! If it was so easy, there would be a lot of legends about these Primordial Fierce Beasts. Not knowing what it is, you still want to take advantage of it. You’re so bold!”
Lan Shui’er was not stupid. The abnormality had alerted her. She just did not want to admit that she was fooled by a Primordial Fierce Beast that had not yet hatched. Hearing what Zhou Bao said, she felt humiliated but did not stop him anymore. She said, “Anyway, I got this giant egg, so it belongs to me. Don’t try to obtain it!”
“I don’t! But there is no other method now. From what you saw, my Real Essence owns pretty strong intelligence. It is now united with that guy’s power, devouring each other. Either I devour it, or it devours me. There is no second choice!”
What Zhou Bao said was true. His Dragon Chimera Fire and the Primordial Fierce Beast’s giant egg had begun to devour each other, like what just happened. No matter how hard Zhou Bao tried, their connection could not be cut off.
“You…!” Lan Shui’er stared at the black Demonic Fire that had risen all around Zhou Bao, with her eyes flickering and sparkling with blue light. This time, Zhou Bao’s black Demonic Fire had been stimulated, not as small as before. Moreover, the nature of the Dragon Chimera Fire was fully aroused, and it was burning around Zhou Bao, rising nearly 1,000 feet. Zhou Bao had been completely wrapped up by this Demonic Fire. Actually, all the Real Essence in his body began to turn into the Dragon Chimera Fire at this moment. A monumentally rapacious, fiendish and evil Qi Power that seemed to devour everything spread from Zhou Bao.
In a flash, it enveloped the whole stone chamber.
“This is!” Lan Shui’er frowned, apparently not expecting that Zhou Bao would burst out such a strong Qi Power. She was startled and took a step back.
“What is the power of this? It doesn’t seem to come from humans, but is somewhat similar to that of Primordial Fierce Beasts. Right, it came from the Primordial Fierce Beast, just like the Fierce Qi that the giant egg gave out just now. But his Qi Power is more ferocious. Is he not a human being, but a transformation from a Primordial Fierce Beast?” Lan Shui’er was confused, and Zhou Bao was in a dilemma.
The potential of the Primitive Dragon Chimera Fire seemed to have been fully aroused at this point. Zhou Bao felt the Demonic Fire slowly swallowing the Qi Power that the giant egg released. Then, along with the Qi Power and pneuma of the giant egg, it pounced on the top of the giant egg and wrapped it up.
Zhou Bao could not control his Demonic Fire now. It was good that the Demonic Fire owned powerful intelligence. But sometimes it was not easy to control, especially when its nature burst out.
“Hoo-hoo…” Under the licking of the Demonic Fire, there was a burst of whine from the giant egg. Zhou Bao could clearly feel its fear and beg for mercy from the waves of psywave that came from the giant egg.
Yes, he could clearly feel that it was begging for mercy. Not only was it pleading with him, but also with Lan Shui’er.
“What a cunning thing it is! If I were careless, I could have been cheated!” Facing a stupid woman who had been cheated for 150 years, Zhou Bao really did not know what to say, but consoled her with reluctance, “But now, his tricks should be useless!”
“Humph!” Lan Shui’er gave Zhou Bao a hostile glare, but did not stop him. But at the same time, she exuded violent killing intent, not only for the giant egg, but also for Zhou Bao.
150 years of hard work and giving, and it was a hoax from the start. How could she reconcile herself to this? How could this not embarra.s.s her? That was enough to make her an unprecedented dissatisfied woman.
Looking at this situation, Zhou Bao knew it was bad. But honestly, he did not know what to do. After all, he was already stuck in this place. The Primitive Dragon Chimera Fire was devouring merrily. The life in the giant egg had lost its ability to fight back, and even its resistance had become very reluctant. The Demonic Fire had completely melted the pattern on the giant egg into a delicate talisman and rolled it in. In the giant egg, the great life essence of the Primordial Fierce Beast was broken down and absorbed by the Dragon Chimera Fire.
Puffs of life essence, Primordial Essence Qi and fantastic talismans changed the Dragon Chimera Fire in different ways. The Demonic Fire slowly became mellow; its original blazing spirit gradually converged; even the surging ferociousness had been restrained. It turned into the purest black flame. In the dark firelight, pieces of mysterious abstruse talismans were floating, steaming and emitting remote, mysterious spirit. The shape of the Demonic Fire began to change. The flame raged, like the floating clouds in the sky, slowly changing, gradually taking shape.
All of a sudden, Zhou Bao felt the Demonic Fire shake violently.
“Crack!”
There was a soft crack in the sh.e.l.l. The extremely enormous Essence Qi poured over his Demonic Fire. His Demonic Fire had now become an infinite abyss, recklessly absorbing the essence, strength, and spirit.
The black flame gradually formed, producing a huge phantom behind Zhou Bao. It looked like an ape, with a white head and red feet, completely composed of Zhou Bao’s Demonic Fire. It could only scatter and could not gather. Every time it was about to get together, there seemed to be an invisible force preventing it from taking shape.
“Zhuyan! It’s a Zhuyan!” Zhou Bao had seen the shape that the Demonic Fire gathered behind him, and it surprised him. The remarkable spirit, having not totally taken shape but containing powerful life essence, which the Demonic Fire devoured and was about to absorb, was the legendary Primordial Fierce Beast, Demonic Ape Zhuyan.
Zhuyan was a famous Fierce Beast of the primitive times. It was so strong that people called it the strongest Fierce Beast. Furthermore, it was cunning, and its favorite trick was to stir up war everywhere, and then devour the spirits of the dead to increase its own strength. This was also the most powerful and the only Divine Sense—devouring living creature’s spirit and soul and transforming it into its horrifying power. The more it devoured, the greater its power. It was comparatively cruel. But this kind of Fierce Beast had disappeared in the antiquity times. Unexpectedly, Lan Shui’er got one, and it was eventually devoured by Zhou Bao’s Demonic Fire.
