The Primordial Demon Ape took a deep breath, adjusted its state, and prepared to begin refining the incomparably precious Primordial Golden List.
Just as he exhaled a clear breath, preparing to infuse it into the Primordial Golden List, a deafening explosion suddenly came from outside the cave.
Boom! The sound was like the roar of a giant beast, causing the entire cave to tremble violently.
The cave entrance had been reduced to dust at some point, revealing the sunlight outside.
The Primordial Demon Ape was startled and instinctively gripped the Primordial Golden List in its hand. It stood up warily and peered out through the cave entrance.
Dark clouds rolled across the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, as if a terrible disaster was about to befall us...
Just as he was greatly surprised, a mysterious and majestic figure slowly stepped into the cave.
The Hongmeng Demon Ape slightly raised its deep eyes and looked at the person who came into the cave.
The man wore a dazzling golden crown, inlaid with various strange innate gemstones that reflected a brilliant light that seemed to illuminate the entire cave.
His face was thin and refined, with distinct features, exuding an otherworldly aura, as if he were untouched by worldly affairs.
He wore a loose purple robe, the fabric of which was extremely soft. When it fluttered in the wind, it looked like clouds and mist, giving people a sense of ethereal beauty.
He wore a pair of ordinary hemp shoes, and with each step he seemed to shatter the void, leaving faint traces.
He held a bamboo staff shrouded in purple aura, which coiled around the staff like a dragon, radiating a chilling pressure.
The bamboo cane seems to be made of a very special material, with a faint flow of spiritual energy from heaven and earth within it.
A fist-sized bronze bell hung from his waist, its surface shrouded in purple mist, with runes faintly flowing within it. These runes shimmered with a mysterious light, as if carrying endless secrets.
The visitor was none other than Hu Le.
A sharp golden light suddenly flashed in the demonic ape's eyes, and a unique divine power for peering into creation was quietly unleashed.
This supernatural ability is a technique of observing qi, and it is extremely mysterious.
The moment his divine eye opened, it was as if a door to another world had been opened, and he could clearly see the flow of fortune above the person's head.
The aura was like a magnificent cloud of steam, constantly churning and surging above the visitor's head, containing endless vitality and mystery.
The Great Dao transformed into a pillar of light, soaring straight into the sky. Within that pillar of light, the mysteries of the universe and all things seemed to be contained, and countless wondrous scenes were created invisibly.
These strange phenomena were ever-changing and all-encompassing. Some resembled the shimmering of vast stars, while others resembled the roaring of ancient divine beasts. The Primordial Demon Ape couldn't help but frown, sensing a powerful aura rushing towards him.
Before long, Hu Le walked with a calm gait, holding a bamboo staff in his hand, and slowly arrived not far from the Primordial Demon Ape.
He carefully examined the demonic ape from head to toe.
The demonic ape was enormous, exuding a fierce aura. It stood silently opposite, like an unshakeable mountain, possessing a majestic presence.
Hu Le suddenly chuckled softly, a hint of mockery in his smile, and said, "You mischievous monkey! How's my magic weapon?"
After saying that, his originally empty gaze slowly lowered, like two sharp swords, staring straight at the Primordial Golden List tightly held in the hands of the Primordial Demon Ape.
The Primordial Golden List exuded a vast and ancient aura, as if it contained endless mysteries.
Upon hearing this, the Primordial Demon Ape was jolted as if struck by lightning, instantly understanding Hu Le's purpose.
It turns out that Hu Le came for the Primordial Golden List.
There's no need to talk about whether it's easy to use or not.
After all, he had not yet fully refined the Primordial Golden List, his connection with it was not close enough, and he had not yet had time to comprehend its mysteries.
Since you haven't even used it, how can you comment on whether it's good or bad?!
Suddenly confronted by the owner of the Spirit Treasure, the Primordial Demon Ape felt somewhat uneasy, but unwilling to lose in terms of momentum. So, he forced himself to remain calm and shouted, "What is your name, Taoist? And how did you find my place?"
The demonic ape's voice was loud and powerful, echoing throughout the empty cave.
"Hehe..." Hu Le chuckled softly, his smile like the gentlest breeze in spring rippling across a lake, as if he had already seen through the slight weakness hidden beneath the seemingly tough exterior of the Primordial Demon Ape.
He spoke slowly, his tone calm yet authoritative, enunciating each word clearly: "You impudent monkey, you acted so recklessly before, not only stealing my magic treasure but also injuring my servant. And now you still don't know who I am?"
I truly don't know whether to praise you for your audacity or your recklessness. You've cultivated for many years, have you really been completely disregarding others all this time...?
"Pah!" Upon hearing this, the Primordial Demon Ape spat out without any politeness. The spittle seemed to carry its disdain and anger as it drew an irregular arc in the air before landing.
He bared his teeth, seemingly somewhat embarrassed and angry, and said, "I, sir, have always acted as I pleased. Having obtained my destined treasure, why would I need to know who you are? Stop putting on airs!"
"How dare you!" Hu Le nodded slightly.
This exclamation of "How dare you!" sounds like a compliment to the Primordial Demon Ape at first glance, but upon closer examination, it is full of contempt.
Although this Primordial Demon Ape was inherently unruly and had done bad things, he still decided to give the monkey a chance to teach this wicked beast what good and bad things are.
"I see that you have cultivated to such a level, which must have been achieved through many hardships, and it is truly remarkable."
Therefore, this humble Taoist is willing to give you a chance to atone for your sins, so that you may know that things in this world are not as simple as you think, and that even though the primordial chaos is vast, it is not something a mere monkey like you can act recklessly.
Hu Le's voice was deep, and his words conveyed an undeniable power.
"Oh? You've got quite the big mouth, Taoist! I don't really like it." A hint of mockery flashed in the eyes of the Primordial Demon Ape, and a sarcastic smile curled at the corner of its mouth.
He sneered inwardly. This Taoist was incredibly arrogant, thinking he could easily make him surrender by giving him some so-called opportunity? What a pipe dream!
But on the surface, he still pretended to be nonchalant, wanting to see what tricks this person would use next.
At most, he would only exchange a few blows with him; he was never afraid to fight with others.
Hu Le didn't care about the Hongmeng Demon Ape's attitude and continued, "Next, if you can obediently return my magic weapon, then come back with me to apologize to my disciples."
However, if you guard my mountain gate for a million years to atone for your past sins, I, this humble Taoist, will forgive your transgressions and give you a chance to live.
Hu Le finally revealed the Primordial Demon Ape's chance to survive; now it's up to the monkey to choose...
