32: Chapter 32 Is this [Giant Divine Ape] about to transform into a Nascent Soul?

When it came to the business of killing people and looting gear, the 【Gao Family Three Siblings】 could be summed up in two words: "Professional"!

The 【Myriad Beast Sect】 was the second largest sect in the 【Taixu Realm】, and the gear, 【Talismanic Incantation】s, and 【Medicinal Pill】s on the fleeing 【Myriad Beast Sect】 【Disciple】s were all of extremely high quality!

Slashing just one of them would result in a massive loot drop!

A ground full of glittering, high-grade equipment, skills, 【Talismanic Incantation】s, 【Medicinal Pill】s, and 【Spirit Stone】s would spill out!

The 【Gao Family Three Siblings】 suddenly exerted force with their feet, transforming into three streaks of black light, leaving behind several black shadows in the 【Void Realm】 as they pursued the 【Myriad Beast Sect】 【Disciple】s!

The palm-sized 【Nine-Tailed Ice Fox】 sat on Jiang Lan's shoulder, its mouth twitching slightly, its eyes bulging, covered in earthworm-like bloodshot veins, staring fixedly like a hook at the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】!

That's right!

The 【Nine-Tailed Ice Fox】 already knew that the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 before it was the murderer who killed its mother!

The reason was very simple: the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 had its mother's blood on its hands!

Although blood would dry, scab over, and fall off, the scent of blood could linger for a very long time!

Jiang Lan gently stroked the little creature's cold little head with his hand, feeling the life-and-death feud between his natal 【Divine Beast】 and the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 before him.

Jiang Lan quickly formed seals with both hands and unleashed a 【Body Fusion Art】!

"Gulu! Gulu!"

The 【Nine-Tailed Ice Fox】 suddenly exerted force with its feet, turning into a blue light, and after circling in the air several times, it slammed fiercely into the center of Jiang Lan's brow!

Yes! Jiang Lan and the 【Nine-Tailed Ice Fox】 had undergone 【Fusion】!

Suddenly!

A bizarre scene unfolded!

Pure 【Spiritual Qi】 suddenly gushed out from Jiang Lan's body, transforming into a hundred-zhang 【Dragon】 of 【Spiritual Qi】 that soared into the sky, shattering the clouds that were obscuring the moon!

Jiang Lan's cultivation base began to climb crazily, from 【Qi Refining Eleventh Layer】 to 【Qi Refining Level Twelve】, finally stopping only when it reached the 【Qi Refining Level Twelve】 【Great Perfection】!

The beastly nature, like several hundred-zhang 【Dragon】s, surged into the sky, assaulting every inch of Jiang Lan's skin!

Jiang Lan's face transformed into a fox shape at a speed visible to the naked eye, and blue bristles grew out!

Four fangs grew out raw from the corners of his mouth!

Clang! Clang! Clang! ...

Accompanied by the crisp sound of metal friction, Jiang Lan grew sharp claws like a grim reaper's scythe, which gleamed with a cold, bluish light under the moonlight!

Jiang Lan's entire body was wrapped in a layer of blue 【Spiritual Qi】, and a tail made of blue 【Spiritual Qi】 grew raw from his tailbone!

Jiang Lan had completely entered a half-human, half-beast state, his eyes bulging and covered in earthworm-like bloodshot veins, with only one thought in his mind: craving blood! Craving slaughter!

Jiang Lan suddenly exerted force with his feet, his body transforming into a streak of blue light, leaving behind several afterimages in the 【Void Realm】; he struck down fiercely at the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's head with a 【Mysterious Rock Heaven Fist】 that tore through the air, creating wisps of white smoke from the friction!

Boom!

The sound of shattering bones mixed with screams soared into the sky, making one's scalp tingle!

Half of the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's skull was smashed open like a watermelon by Jiang Lan's punch, and warm fresh blood instantly sprayed out, staining the cold snowy ground a vibrant red! A rust-like scent of blood instantly permeated the air!

The 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 was sent flying by Jiang Lan's punch, its claws plowing a ravine several dozen zhang long into the ground before it could barely steady its figure!

Jiang Lan did not hesitate for a moment; he immediately formed seals with both hands, and a golden talismanic paper slowly flew from his hand into the 【Void Realm】!

Rip!

The 【Void Realm】 was fiercely torn open by the golden talismanic paper, and a thousand-zhang immortal sword slashed out from within the void!

The thousand-zhang immortal sword spun, creating sword flowers, tearing through the air and emitting a "humming" metallic vibration sound as it slashed fiercely toward the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's neck!

Crack!

Accompanied by the sound of shattering bones, half of the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's neck was rawly severed!

The 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's eyes bulged, its face twisted and ferocious; the intense pain came from its neck and shot straight up its tailbone to the top of its head!

The 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 beat its chest muscles repeatedly with its fists and let out a furious roar toward the sky! It shattered the silence of the night in the 【Ancient Desolate Secret Realm】!

Immediately following this, a bizarre scene appeared!

The 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's cultivation base had actually climbed rawly from 【Golden Core】 【Late Stage】 to 【Golden Core】 【Late Stage】 【Perfection】!

How is this possible?

The 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 had just been slashed by the thousand-zhang immortal sword, its head almost split off, so how could its cultivation base have climbed instead?

Jiang Lan had felt something was wrong when he was observing the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 fighting the 【Myriad Beast Sect】 from the shadows earlier!

At the beginning, this 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 only had 【Golden Core】 【Early Stage】 cultivation, but its cultivation kept getting higher the more it fought, climbing all the way to 【Golden Core】 【Late Stage】 by the end!

Looking at it this way, this 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 must have a higher cultivation the more severe its injuries are!

"Hiss～"

Jiang Lan gasped after thinking of this!

He had to kill the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 immediately; if the fight continued like this and the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 sustained a bit more injury, wouldn't it step into the 【Nascent Soul Realm】?

Stepping into the 【Nascent Soul Realm】 wasn't the most terrifying part; the most terrifying thing was that when a 【Spirit Beast】 advanced in rank, it would receive nourishment from the 【Heavenly Dao】, instantly restoring full health and full 【Qi】!

If this 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 really broke its core and formed a 【Nascent Soul】, its injuries would instantly heal, and it would be at full health and full 【Qi】!

Then wouldn't he be dead for sure?

Jiang Lan quickly formed seals with both hands and unleashed his last golden talisman, the 【Blazing Flame Blade】!

Boom!

The thousand-zhang Blazing Flame Blade, dyed with nine-colored heavenly fire, slashed the void above the 【Ancient Desolate Secret Realm】 to pieces and spun out from the void while creating blade flowers!

The thousand-zhang Blazing Flame Blade tore through the air, emitting wisps of white smoke, and slashed fiercely toward the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's neck!

Crack!

Accompanied by the sound of shattering bones, the thousand-zhang Blazing Flame Blade landed solidly on the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's severed neck!

The 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's neck was almost completely severed!

But!

There was still one last blood vessel that hadn't been severed!

Jiang Lan's eyelids twitched wildly, and he had a very bad premonition in his heart!

Suddenly!

The pure 【Spiritual Qi】 in the 【Ancient Desolate Secret Realm】 suddenly transformed into several hundred-zhang 【Dragon】s of 【Spiritual Qi】, which writhed like giant pythons and slammed fiercely toward the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】!

This 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】 was about to form a 【Nascent Soul】!

Jiang Lan's deduction was correct; the more severe the injuries, the higher the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's cultivation climbed!

Jiang Lan's brows furrowed into a " river" shape, and cold sweat from his forehead dripped down his cheeks, "Plop! Plop!" landing on the cold snowy ground and creating little ice flowers!

Jiang Lan drew the 【Beiming】 immortal sword, turned his wrist to create an immortal-white sword flower, suddenly exerted force with his feet, turned into a streak of white light, and slashed fiercely toward the last blood vessel on the 【Giant Strength Immortal Ape】's neck!

Clang!

Accompanied by the crisp sound of metallic impact, the 【Beiming】 immortal sword slashed fiercely at the last blood vessel on the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's neck, instantly splashing out several sparks that bloomed wantonly in the night sky!

But strangely, the 【Beiming】 immortal sword actually hadn't severed this last thin blood vessel!

Jiang Lan's expression changed drastically, his spine turned cold, and cold sweat instantly broke out from his back!

Jiang Lan turned his wrist, created an immortal-white sword flower, and continued to slash toward the last blood vessel on the 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's neck!

Clang! Clang! Clang! ...

The crisp metallic impact sounds exploded densely in the 【Void Realm】 like a summer night's rainstorm hitting the cold ground!

The splashing sparks bloomed wantonly in the 【Void Realm】, illuminating the ink-black night sky as if it were broad daylight!

Finally!

After Jiang Lan didn't know how many swords he had slashed out,

"Puff!"

The 【Giant Strength Divine Ape】's last blood vessel was finally severed!

The head rolled on the ground for a dozen circles before stopping, and fresh blood gushed out from the severed neck, staining the snowy ground a vibrant red, blooming wantonly in the cold snowy night like a blood-colored rose!

A 【Giant Strength Immortal Ape】 that had cultivated for 2000 years, dead!

Deep in the 【Secret Realm】, in the side hall of the imperial mausoleum, inside the Nine-Dragon Coffin, a long sigh was issued,

"【Little Gold】, you were about to form a 【Nascent Soul】, what a pity!"

After that, there was no more sound!

The 【Giant Strength Immortal Ape】 transformed into specks of spiritual light, condensing in the 【Void Realm】 into a fist-sized white 【Divine Pill】; inside the 【Divine Pill】, there was actually a drop of blood swimming continuously within it like a living creature!
