Before Chen Yang and Cang Yuan even climbed the snow mountain, they encountered the Snow Giants at the foot of the mountain. This was probably not a coincidence; the Snow Giants must have sensed their presence and come over on their own initiative.
These snow monsters all submitted to Chen Yang, making him feel like he had become the Monkey King.
These Snow Demons actually learned Monkey Style Fist from the Azure Ape, but unlike the Azure Ape, they didn't have anyone to guide them, so they learned it poorly, but their fighting strength was still somewhat stronger than before.
In the snow-capped mountains, they were already near-dominant, with few creatures able to rival them. Now they are even more powerful, practically ruling the snow-capped mountains. Even if there are tigers in the mountains, especially saber-toothed tigers, they will still reign supreme.
However, Chen Yang, this imposter monkey king, still demonstrated his martial prowess, battling the Snow Demons one by one and defeating them before using his intermediate-level spiritual power to communicate with them. This won over the Snow Demons, who finally accepted this skinny king.
However, for Chen Yang, subduing the Snow Giants was not very meaningful; it was just something he did along the way. He immediately set off again with the Azure Ape.
This time, before they even reached the snow-capped mountain, they encountered another ferocious beast, making this desolate snowfield quite lively.
This wasn't the first time Chen Yang had encountered such a ferocious beast; it was the giant short-faced bear that had once threatened his life and nearly killed him.
The giant short-faced bear didn't seem to see Chen Yang as an enemy, but remained wary of Xue Kui. However, it didn't seem to have any intention of running away, leading Chen Yang to guess that it mistook him for a young Xue Kui and wanted to eat him.
We all live in the same area, so this must be more than the first time we've met. We must be old rivals.
The ape was also a little nervous. If it really fought, it might not be a match for the giant short-faced bear. This creature was too terrifying, with astonishing strength. Even Chen Yang's current peak physique was far inferior to the giant short-faced bear in terms of strength.
However, Chen Yang didn't plan to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the giant short-faced bear. In the past, if he had been hit solidly, he would have been close to death, and now, even a hit would be quite bad; if it hit his head or other parts of his body, he would still die.
He now carries twenty-four throwing knives; with his strength, he should be able to pierce through the thick fur and fat of the giant short-faced bear.
However, Chen Yang planned to try out the sword he and Hong Gui had forged together. This sword hadn't been used yet, so he would use the giant short-faced bear to test it out. This opponent was quite rare.
The ape followed Chen Yang closely, which puzzled the giant short-faced bear, which lingered at a safe distance and did not approach easily.
Chen Yang simply picked up his sword and ran directly toward the giant short-faced bear.
Although the giant short-faced bear didn't understand what Chen Yang was trying to do with this suicidal attack, the ape was still some distance away, so it pounced on Chen Yang without hesitation.
Chen Yang leaped over the giant short-faced bear's head and landed behind it, the distance perfectly calculated.
He turned and slashed horizontally with his sword, easily cutting a bloody gash in the giant short-faced bear's fur. It screamed in agony and, incredibly, ran away. It ran so fast it didn't even turn its head.
This bear was quite clever. It might not have figured out how Chen Yang hurt it, but its hunting instincts told it that Chen Yang was no pushover, and with a Xue Kui added to the mix, it was no match for him. So it ran away, and ran away decisively.
Chen Yang was also helpless about this; he wasn't the kind of person who would go to extremes.
"Fine, you've already blessed my greatsword." Chen Yang looked at the bloodstains on the blade; at this temperature, the blood would almost immediately congeal. He touched it lightly, and the congealed blood fell off the blade, which pleased Chen Yang. He couldn't make it completely blood-free, but it was smooth enough.
"Fist techniques are still more comfortable; I'm completely clueless about swordsmanship. However, this sword is not bad as a tool; it can be used as a throwing dart in critical moments."
As Chen Yang used the sword as a hiking stick, he muttered to himself, showing no pity for the precious sword he had forged.
The sword was merely a weapon and tool he used occasionally. After all, he was not a swordsman. Fist techniques were enough for him to study for a lifetime. He had no intention of learning swordsmanship, because swordsmanship was another profound martial art that could be studied for a lifetime.
He climbed the mountain with great efficiency, a stark contrast to his last visit. However, it was precisely the reward from the last climb that made this one so easy for him.
The Extreme Body truly changed him a lot. His relatively weakest physical body suddenly became the strongest, even overshadowing his other abilities.
Even without any martial arts training, with his exceptional physique, he could easily take on a dozen opponents in hand-to-hand combat. Others might attack Chen Yang and he'd be completely unharmed, but when he attacks others, it's just a matter of one punch. How can you compare?
This time, climbing Cang'er Snow Mountain again was a different experience, but the magnificence of Cang'er Snow Mountain remains as stunning as ever. Standing on the mountainside and looking into the distance, the scenery is breathtaking.
Chen Yang spent the night on the mountainside. It was still a bit cold at night, so he and Cang Yuan squatted in the snow cave where they had spent the night during their last mountain climb to keep warm.
He hadn't collected firewood along the way, so he didn't light a fire. The clothes he brought were warm enough, and he was also quite resistant to the cold. With the help of the ape, he could tolerate the nighttime temperature. He even had the mood to admire the snow-capped mountains under the moonlight.
Although it was night, the visibility on the snow-covered mountain was still good due to the reflection of the snow. The hazy snow-covered mountain seemed serene, but the raging wind shattered this tranquility. The wind halfway up the mountain was terrifyingly strong. If it weren't for this natural cave, Chen Yang probably wouldn't have been able to sleep that night.
As dawn broke, the wind died down, and Chen Yang led the ape forward, quickening his pace, hoping to watch the sunrise from the snow-capped mountain peak.
Just as the first light of dawn appeared on the edge of the trench, they arrived at the place where they had previously blocked Chen Yang's path.
Chen Yang can jump over on his own this time without any problem, and he can cross over without the help of the Azure Ape. However, his goal this time is to bring the Azure Ape over with him.
Chen Yang took out a long rope from his backpack and tied it around himself and Cang Yuan.
He took a running start and easily cleared the chasm, even going over it by five or six meters.
The ape suffered greatly. When Chen Yang dragged it over, it inevitably collided with the mountain wall. Fortunately, Chen Yang had intermediate-level intuition and warned the ape in advance that this would happen, allowing the ape to prepare in advance.
Intermediate Inspiration was incredibly effective at communicating with the apes; they understood each other perfectly, almost to the point of speaking. If Chen Yang had started using Intermediate Inspiration to tame the Snow Giants when they were young, filming another "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" wouldn't have been a problem. No special effects would have been needed.
He coiled up the rope and climbed to the top of the world with the ape, watching the sun slowly rise on the horizon in the distance, feeling infinitely satisfied.
I've made up for the two missed chapters. Time for bed. I'll update more chapters this month if I have time.
