Chapter 59 was abandoned.
Chapter 59 was abandoned.
The pill melts instantly upon entering the mouth.
The abundant life force rapidly repaired the meridians within the body of the Soft Bone King; however, this pill also contained a large amount of spiritual energy.
While repairing, this spiritual energy also became fuel for that wisp of golden flame.
Thus, while repairing, the two energies repeatedly pulled and tugged within the body of the Soft Bone King.
The power of the pills was limited and soon became insufficient. The Ape Demon King watched as the Soft Bone King grew increasingly weak and was on the verge of death.
"Xiao Wu! Xiao Wu!" The Ape Demon King roared in grief and anger, his red eyes gleaming and his fangs bared.
"My...Your Majesty, don't be sad...It's so...so good to die in your arms..."
The primordial spirit of the Soft Bone King transmitted intermittent thoughts.
-
At that moment, Lu Changgeng, who had just emptied the Soft Bone Cave and was resting in an abandoned cave, sensed a fluctuation of divine sense coming from afar.
The Soft Bone King has awakened! And he's on the verge of death!
Oh dear! I forgot to remind the Ape Demon King not to infuse her with magic!
Lu Changgeng shook his head regretfully. He had pre-embedded a trace of true solar fire in the dantian and meridians of the Soft Bone King's body. If he were to indiscriminately pour magic power into him...
That's like a spark igniting a fuse; it will explode in an instant!
It was unclear whether the Ape Demon King could save her. The residual divine sense he had attached to the Soft Bone King sensed everything at the scene. The latter was not dead yet and still had a breath, but it would be soon.
Inside the Ape Demon Cave.
Qin Wu, the Soft Bone King, was on the verge of death, her body charred black, with only a faint rise and fall remaining on her chest, which could break at any moment.
"Xiao Wu, I will not allow you to die!" the Ape Demon King roared weakly.
"Your Majesty... could you... grant me one request before I die?"
"Tell me, tell me..."
"Could...could you please take me one more time..."
Thousands of miles away, Lu Changgeng swallowed a piece of fruit, which got stuck in his throat, almost choking him to death...
"Cough cough cough..."
What kind of move is the Soft Bone King making? He doesn't understand.
"This..." The Ape Demon King was also somewhat bewildered.
"Your Majesty... promise... promise me, or else... or I will die with my eyes open!" Qin Wu's primordial spirit transmitted a divine thought.
"well!"
The Ape Demon King gritted his teeth and agreed.
The next moment, he swept the Soft Bone King up in his arms and carried him to the bedchamber in an instant.
He carefully placed the Soft Bone King on the bed and bowed down to him.
For a moment, the flowers and leaves brushed against each other, swaying gently in each other's arms.
Before long, a painful growl suddenly came from the bedchamber.
Then, with a loud bang, the palace door shattered, and a burly figure burst out.
The two ape spirits guarding the gate stared at the figure in disbelief.
"That...that's the King?"
"Is...yes?"
"Why does Your Majesty have a fire poker tucked into your waistband?"
"Are you blind, you monkey? That's clearly the little king."
"So what happened?"
"I don't know either..."
The Ape Demon King, carrying a fire poker, strode swiftly through the air and leaped into a mountain stream.
To everyone's surprise, the golden flames above not only did not go out, but instead burned even more fiercely, showing a faint tendency to attack the dantian.
With a fierce determination, the Ape Demon King drew his broadsword from his waist, and with a whoosh, the fire poker was severed in two.
"roar!"
The Ape Demon King let out a painful roar. This break basically marked the end of his life as a male ape. The golden flames burned his primordial spirit, affecting his foundation for merging with the Dao.
To put it bluntly, he became a eunuch.
Unless there is something to repair the primordial spirit that has returned to emptiness and merged with the Dao, he can only be an old ape for now.
In truth, Lu Changgeng's golden flames weren't that powerful; he could have easily avoided them if he had been so determined. It was only during the brief moment when his spirit and flesh merged with the Soft Bone King that the latter guided the golden flames towards the Ape Demon King.
The Ape Demon King, recalling the words of the Soft Bone King before his spirit dissipated on the bed, was filled with rage and couldn't help but roar again.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid I can't hold on any longer... But I don't hate that scoundrel at all. I hate Your Majesty, I hate why Your Majesty is so fickle..."
"If Your Majesty hadn't neglected me, I wouldn't have been so blinded by greed to try and win Your Majesty's favor, only to end up like this..."
"I must punish Your Majesty... Your Majesty... From now on, you will not be allowed to touch any other vixens..."
Having said that, the Soft Bone King exhausted his last bit of strength to transfer the golden flames within his body to the connection point...
This startled the Ape Demon King, who immediately ran out, but it was too late...
-
An abandoned cave thousands of miles away.
Lu Changgeng learned everything about the Soft Bone King through his last remaining wisp of will, and couldn't help but think to himself, "Never mess with a woman... and the same goes for female demons."
He had originally planned to control the Soft Bone Queen's primordial spirit through his lingering resentment, fearing that she might reveal her true identity, but now it seems that he had worried unnecessarily.
The Monkey King is truly blessed to have such a beloved concubine.
-
The Ape Demon King returned to his cave and went straight to the treasure vault, where the sounds of rummaging through chests and cabinets and his roars could be heard intermittently.
A moment later, he came out with a gloomy face, clearly indicating that the outcome was not good.
The two green ape spirits guarding the door would occasionally glance inside, their eyes secretly fixed on the ape demon king's waist, looking as if they wanted to laugh but dared not.
"Guards! Go and invite the Dragon King of the Azure Wave Pool to me! Tell him I have important business with him!" the Ape Demon King commanded with a gloomy face.
"Hurry up!"
"yes!"
He had already buried the Soft Bone King. Although he felt some resentment, he hated the imposter even more!
He now wished he could tear him to pieces, devour his flesh, drink his blood, and extract his soul to vent his hatred!
Several hours later, a little demon's voice came from outside the palace, followed by a series of hurried footsteps.
The Wansheng Old Dragon of Bibo Pool leaned on his dragon-headed cane, followed by a water centipede demon. It seemed that his previous search methods had also been fruitless.
There was another figure behind them, it was Ao Qing, but he was dressed normally at the moment, and his burly body exuded a strong masculine aura.
If Lu Changgeng saw this, he would definitely complain, "How come you have two faces?"
Accompanied by the two, the old dragon Wansheng strode into the main hall, his aged face filled with doubt.
The errand boy reported that they had caught the person on the bounty, but how could that be?
That person stole the Xuanming Canglan Spear, how could he be so easy to catch?
Even if they were in the Transformation stage, wielding that spear would not be a problem in a one-on-one fight against those at the Returning to Emptiness and Dao Integration stage; even if they were outmatched, they could escape.
Upon entering the hall, they found no trace of the young man. Instead, the Ape Demon King sat grimly on his throne, a sense of foreboding creeping into their hearts. They asked, "Brother Ape Demon, I heard you've captured that wild Taoist priest? Where is he?"
"Hmph! The thing I regret most is taking on this business with you!" The Ape Demon King was not polite at all and did not give him a kind look.
"What do you mean?"
The Ape Demon King slowly raised his head, his crimson eyes like two burning embers, and veins bulging on his face.
He stared at the old dragon Wansheng and questioned, word by word, "Who exactly is that unorthodox Taoist?"
(Sorry guys, I used clickbait for a bit. Even though it didn't get many views, I'll still keep writing.)
