"Human cultivator, I have told you what you wanted to know. Now you can let me leave, right?"
Seeing Lin Xiaofei's silent expression, the giant ape lying in the mud pit hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Let you leave?"
You're so naive. Weren't there any malicious intent behind what you just said to me?
I think I'll send you to the underworld instead.
Lin Xiaofei's expression turned cold, and with a wave of his hand, he released a sword aura that killed the giant ape.
The third-tier giant ape's words concealed ill intentions, so he naturally wouldn't let the giant ape in front of him go.
Moreover, the corpse of a peak third-tier giant ape contains terrifying energy that can effectively nourish the spiritual field of the spatial bead, making it even less likely for them to let the target go.
Immediately afterwards, he reached out and sent the giant ape's corpse into the spatial bead, burying it in the spiritual soil of the spiritual field.
"It seems that the White Tiger clan's lair may indeed contain fourth-grade and fifth-grade spiritual herbs, as well as a large number of precious treasures."
Otherwise, why would a Nascent Soul cultivator from Tiger King Immortal City come to the core territory of the demon race?
However, there's no rush to the White Tiger clan's lair now. Let's first plunder the second-grade spiritual herbs within the Giant Ape clan's territory.
With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xiaofei took a step forward, his figure disappearing from the spot like a phantom.
...
What happened?
It was simply sent to various mountain peaks to deliver messages, to summon back the best members of our clan, so that they would not be killed by that human cultivator.
An hour has passed, and Commander Yuanran still hasn't returned?
"Go quickly and see what's going on!"
Inside the cave of the giant ape clan, the giant ape prince frowned slightly and spoke to a small giant ape subordinate below.
"yes."
The little giant ape responded and quickly left the giant ape clan's lair.
"Your Highness, we have just received news that Commander Yuan Ran accidentally encountered that human cultivator while recalling his people and was killed by him."
Moreover, that cultivator stole all the second-grade spiritual herbs from more than three hundred hills in the outer area of my clan's territory.
Now, some of our tribesmen have spotted him and are rushing towards our tribe's core territory.
It seems he's not content with the rare and precious herbs within the outer territories; he intends to steal the valuable spiritual herbs from our clan's herb garden.
A small, panicked giant ape demon rushed into the cave and said urgently.
"What?
"How could it be that Commander Yuan Ran was killed by that human cultivator?"
The giant ape prince looked shocked.
"Your Highness, that human cultivator possessed an extremely powerful sword qi technique. With just one move, he severed both of Commander Yuan Ran's arms."
Then, the human cultivator stomped the ape-like leader into the mud pit. After a brief exchange, the human, filled with rage, finally killed the ape-like leader.
"It's the little giant ape demon beast below," it said.
"A single sword strike was enough to sever Commander Yuan Ran's arms?"
It seems this human cultivator is quite powerful.
The giant ape prince pondered for a moment, then frowned and said.
He knew in his heart that Commander Yuan Ran's arms were comparable to treasures of the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. They were extremely hard, impervious to blades and spears, and had incomparably strong defensive power. Even a cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm might not be able to sever Commander Yuan Ran's arms.
Among the third-tier demon kings, Commander Yuan Ran's strength is outstanding, and he can even contend with a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage.
Now, the ape leader has been killed by a human cultivator, which has greatly shocked it.
The human cultivator was about to arrive near their lair, intending to steal the precious spiritual herbs from the herb garden, which made him very anxious.
Currently, within the Giant Ape Clan, all the fourth-tier Giant Ape Demon Kings have been recruited by the White Tiger Clan to fight against the Demon Clan warriors, while he and the other third-tier Demon Kings are guarding their territory.
Commander Yuanran was no match for that human cultivator, nor was he, after all, he was at the late stage of the third rank.
"Prince Giant Ape, that human cultivator has already entered our territory and is about to arrive near our lair. What should we do?"
The giant ape prince, who was deep in thought, suddenly heard a report coming from below.
“Our lair has a defensive array and a clan-protecting treasure. If that human cultivator dares to come, I will use the array to kill him.”
But that herb garden has many precious spiritual herbs; are they really going to be stolen by that cultivator?
"The giant ape prince said with concern."
Before leaving the nest, his father told him to protect his people and the precious herbs in the herb garden.
The precious spiritual herbs in that herb garden are the cultivation resources of the giant ape clan, and an important resource for the development and growth of their entire clan.
Now, the spiritual herbs in the Spirit Herb Garden are about to be stolen by a human cultivator. Once they lose a large amount of precious spiritual herb resources, the entire Giant Ape clan will find it difficult to find cultivation resources.
Therefore, it will be very difficult for the giant ape clan to improve its strength. At least within a hundred years, the giant ape clan will decline.
At the same time, when his father returns, he will surely punish him. Even if he is the crown prince of the giant ape clan, he will not be able to escape severe punishment.
After a moment of contemplation, he felt that this was an extremely important matter concerning the future of the entire giant ape race, and he could not make a decision.
So he said to a giant eagle below him, "
Brother Eagle, you heard what I just said.
A large number of precious spiritual herbs from my clan's herb garden are about to be stolen by a human cultivator, and I am no match for that human cultivator.
When that cultivator steals a large amount of spiritual herbs, my father will blame me, and I will be severely punished, perhaps even banished from the territory.
Now, I'm assigning you a task: to deliver a message.
Inform my father about this and have him quickly send back a fourth-tier demon king. Only in this way can we stop that cultivator from stealing our clan's herb garden.
"Yes, I'll go right away."
The giant eagle demon king nodded, spread its wings, and soared into the air, disappearing into the void like a beam of light.
Although this giant eagle demon beast is a late-stage third-tier demon king, its innate supernatural ability is extremely fast flight, comparable to the full-speed flight of an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the giant eagle arrived above a battlefield.
It quickly found a tall and powerful giant ape demon king, who was the king of the giant ape clan.
"Your Majesty, the Giant Ape Prince sent me to deliver a message, saying that a human cultivator has trespassed into the core territory of my Giant Ape clan."
The cultivator first stole all the second-grade spiritual herbs from various mountains and killed many outstanding members of his clan.
In particular, Commander Yuan Ran had already been killed by that human cultivator.
That cultivator is about to infiltrate our clan's herb garden, but no one in the cave dares to stop him.
"The giant eagle demon beast," he said hastily.
"Commander Yuanran has the strength of a half-step Nascent Soul stage cultivator. Ordinary cultivators simply cannot kill it."
The Giant Ape Demon King thought to himself, then quickly asked:
Was that human cultivator a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator or a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator?
He did not expect that, just as he was about to engage in a great battle with the demon warriors, a human cultivator would suddenly appear in his territory.
Moreover, that cultivator stole all the second-grade spiritual herbs from the outer territory, and now he is even planning to go to the spiritual herb garden of his giant ape clan.
The Spirit Herb Garden is the cultivation resource of his giant ape clan, used to improve their cultivation. If the Spirit Herb Garden is lost, how will his giant ape clan develop in the future?
"Reporting to Your Excellency, that human cultivator was merely a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator."
His strength is extremely formidable. According to our scouts, that cultivator possesses the combat power of an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. None of us are his match.
"The Giant Ape Prince sent me to request that Your Majesty dispatch a fourth-tier demon king back to the monastery to stop that cultivator from stealing the spiritual herbs from the herb garden."
The giant eagle demonic beast bowed and said.
