166: The Monkey King broke through the fifth level, the fateful battle!

"My King, I've also broken through to the Fourth Rank!"

In a certain sea area in the vast ocean, Ta Mu excitedly shouted, wishing he could make this good news known to everyone.

The other fierce beasts that hadn't yet broken through to the Fourth Rank all looked at Ta Mu with envy, then worked even harder at their slaughter.

During this past month, with Xia Fan's help in dealing with those dangerous Fourth Rank sea creatures, the fierce beasts from Yunxia Mountain had encountered virtually no obstacles.

After their rampant slaughter, they had also devoured countless sea beasts and gained a significant boost in power.

Currently, King Kong, who had always been far ahead, had now become a strong practitioner at the mid-Fourth Rank, and even showed signs of entering the late-Fourth Rank after continuous slaughter.

However, King Kong had always been quiet and wasn't particularly interested in Ta Mu's loud exclamations.

"Tiger Brother, I've also improved a lot!"

Among all the fierce beasts, the Magic Cat had made the fastest progress!

After hearing Ta Mu's voice, she also spoke to Xia Fan as if seeking praise.

Currently, Xia Fan was no longer interested in ordinary crystals, so the Magic Cat could exclusively enjoy the sea beast crystals collected by the fierce beasts of Yunxia Mountain. It was with these crystals that she had grown to the late-Fourth Rank.

In terms of cultivation realm alone, the Magic Cat was even higher than King Kong!

At this level, when the Magic Cat merged with Xia Fan again, the enhancement it provided him was even more significant.

Now, Xia Fan was already at the early-Fifth Rank, but with the Magic Cat's enhancement, he could still clearly feel his strength greatly increasing, boosting his power considerably!

"Very good!"

At this moment, he was looking at his subordinates with a gratified expression, nodding slightly, but only offering these two words of praise, because his mind was on other matters: "There aren't many days left until that great change; it's time to go back!"

With this thought, Xia Fan immediately summoned all the fierce beasts.

Then, continuously using Void Traversal, he took them directly back to Yunxia Mountain... *Whoosh!*

As soon as he landed, he inverted the eastern emperor bell, instantly pouring out a large amount of sea creature flesh that hadn't yet been devoured, piling up into a small mountain of meat!

"Roar, roar, roar!"

"Owoo!"

Inside Yunxia Mountain, the many fierce beasts on guard, upon seeing so much flesh, immediately had their eyes light up, and the moment Xia Fan gave permission, they excitedly pounced on the mountain of meat.

They had been diligently guarding this place and hadn't had any meat for a long time!

While the fierce beasts were devouring, he also observed Yunxia Mountain.

He confirmed that during his absence, apart from some spiritual treasures growing considerably, there were no other changes, and he was completely relieved.

"This is...?"

Soon after returning to Yunxia Mountain, Xia Fan felt a familiar aura from the direction of India, which had greatly improved. After some thought, he murmured, "Monkey Head, have you finally reached the Fifth Rank as well?"

"Little Magic Cat!"

Snapping back to reality, he immediately called the Magic Cat over, then said with a smile, "Do you want to go out and play again?"

"Are we going to the ocean again?"

Over the past month, the Magic Cat had nothing much to do and had seen the vast ocean in its entirety. It immediately thought they were going to the ocean again and felt a bit reluctant, "The ocean isn't fun at all."

Seeing this, Xia Fan smiled faintly, "We're going south, to play with Monkey Head who's over there!"

"Okay, I'll go!"

The Magic Cat instantly agreed happily, then was led by Xia Fan as they left Yunxia Mountain.

The other fierce beasts could only show incredibly envious expressions, then continued to bury their heads in devouring the sea beast flesh!

On the way to India, Xia Fan mused to himself, "Monkey Head possesses powerful abilities, and now that he's reached the Fifth Rank, he must have comprehended even more."

"If I can gather all the Thirty-Six Heavenly Transformations and Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Transformations, then... my combat power, even in the mythical era, would be considered that of a major figure!"

"So... Monkey Head, you must wait for me..."

... "Monkey Head, from now on, I can only rely on you!"

In India, Yu Mian Fox leaned against Monkey King's shoulder and couldn't help but remind him.

Now, the entire India had become Monkey King's puppet organization.

Here, he got whatever he wanted, living a life of incomparable ease.

After living this kind of life for a while, Yu Mian Fox also realized that this was better, and entrusted herself to Monkey King.

She had now forgotten that she was once Monkey King's elder sister-in-law, and had also forgotten the old ox who had fought to the death to cover their retreat.

"Don't worry!"

Beside her, Monkey King nodded slightly, "From now on, in this world, you will be second only to one person, above everyone else!"

"Is that so?"

No sooner had Monkey King's voice fallen than a majestic voice suddenly echoed throughout this world, startling Yu Mian Fox.

Monkey King, however, merely paused for a moment before looking up and asking suspiciously, "Tiger King?"

He was now also at the Fifth Rank, and his soul power was not weak, so he sensed Xia Fan's arrival. Coupled with his greatly enhanced methods and the smooth sailing he'd had recently, Monkey King's long-lost confidence had returned.

At this moment, he quietly looked at the sky, awaiting the arrival of his fated enemy.

As a rift appeared in the sky, Xia Fan slowly emerged from it, looking down at the other party, and for a time, neither spoke.

Eventually, Monkey King couldn't help but break the silence, saying faintly, "Tiger King, are you planning to settle our scores today?"

"Indeed!"

Monkey King immediately smiled, "So impatient. Aren't you afraid of Qiongqi benefiting from our struggle again?"

Now, all Fifth Rank fierce beasts had their own powerful aspects, and their speed had also increased considerably.

Both he and Tiger King were at the Fifth Rank. A life-and-death battle of this magnitude, not to mention Qiongqi, would surely be sensed by other Fifth Rank creatures. At that time, this group of Fifth Rank powerhouses would definitely come to observe, or even interfere.

Especially Qiongqi, who would absolutely seize this opportunity to reap the benefits and continue to strengthen himself.

The reason Monkey King was still so calm at this moment was because he was confident.

Even if he still couldn't defeat Tiger King this time, Tiger King would have to pay a considerable price to take him down!

In the sky, Xia Fan allowed Monkey King to let Yu Mian Fox leave first.

When their gazes met again, he let out a cold laugh, "Heh heh!"

"Killing you wouldn't even cause this King injury!"

He stood there, looking down, an unmatchable aura naturally emanating from him.

"If Qiongqi dares to come, then this King doesn't mind taking all of you!"
