199: Monkey King ambush, the power of the purple gold bell!
Kunlun Mountain, three thousand miles away from where the Immortal Realm appeared.
With a loud bang, a huge figure landed heavily. It was the severely injured Prisoner Ox, who appeared here, his face still filled with lingering fear. He was muttering to himself, “That Tiger King is truly formidable; I unexpectedly suffered a loss at his hands!”
Recalling his previous experience, Prisoner Ox was still trembling with fear, but he was also very lucky. If the Severed Arm hadn’t suddenly caught up to the Tiger King earlier, he might have died!
Only after seeing where he was did Prisoner Ox completely relax, muttering to himself, “Even a common tiger can reach this level. I, this old ox, can no longer be so arrogant.”
“It seems I must break through to the sixth rank as soon as possible!”
Previously, he had relied on his peak fifth-rank strength, thinking that he would surely make great strides and seize the greatest opportunities in this trip to the Immortal Realm. However, now, repeatedly disturbed by the Severed Arm and Xia Fan, he couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. “Only by breaking through to the sixth rank can I achieve something in this era of great contention and revive the bloodline power of the ancient Prisoner Ox!”
“Hahaha, I don’t think you’ll have that chance!”
Suddenly, a cold laugh rang out, startling Prisoner Ox.
“Poof!”
Following the cold laugh, a hurricane sound appeared, and it seemed to be getting closer to him.
Prisoner Ox was greatly alarmed by this. He was now severely injured, and any unexpected change could lead to his demise. But before he could even turn around, he felt an intense burning pain on his body, as if he was being scorched by a raging fire.
This evil wind came extremely fast, and the accompanying flames, like a parasitic growth, simply wouldn’t extinguish!
Looking around, Prisoner Ox’s entire body was being roasted by a layer of flames. The terrifying temperature carried immense damage, continuously scorching him. Coupled with his already severe injuries, he was almost instantly burned to the point of his skin splitting and flesh tearing, suffering immensely.
Not far from the hurricane, a figure standing upright appeared.
It was none other than the Monkey King.
Now, the Monkey King’s expression was cold as he quietly watched the burning Prisoner Ox, sneering, “Prisoner Ox, oh Prisoner Ox, you guarded against everything, but did you guard against this King appearing here?”
He had immense confidence.
As his realm improved, the Monkey King’s 72 Transformations technique, if used for tracking, even Xia Fan might not be able to detect it. Now, using it against the severely injured Prisoner Ox was even easier.
Otherwise, in that battle in India, the Monkey King wouldn’t have been able to toy with Xia Fan using just a few clones!
“Ah…”
At this moment, Prisoner Ox was screaming in pain, struggling continuously, but he still couldn’t escape the flames. When he turned his head and saw what the Monkey King held in his hand, he was even more terrified, “Damn Monkey King, you actually have the Dao Ancestor’s Purple Golden Bell!”
He knew the origin of the Purple Golden Bell from his bloodline inheritance memory. This item was forged from the Dao Ancestor’s Eight Trigrams Furnace and possessed immense power, especially when shaken, it could produce extremely powerful methods such as fire, smoke, and sand.
The Monkey King using this item against him naturally caused him to panic.
“You still have the strength to speak?”
“It seems this Purple Golden Bell isn’t enough to make you fear!”
Hearing this, the Monkey King gave a cold smile, then continued to shake the Purple Golden Bell. Immediately, a thick cloud of smoke billowed up and, carried by the strong wind, rushed towards Prisoner Ox.
The latter roared in pain because of it, but after a moment of stalemate, he realized that if he didn’t leave now, he would never be able to leave. He immediately fled again without hesitation!
“Back then, even the Great Sage Ancestor, who had cultivated an indestructible body, was broken by the Purple Golden Bell. Dealing with you is effortless!”
Seeing this, how could the Monkey King miss such a great opportunity for Prisoner Ox to be severely wounded again?
He immediately put away the Purple Golden Bell and continued to pursue. The two chased and fled through Kunlun Mountain, causing a great commotion.
Fortunately, most people and fierce beasts were still in the Immortal Realm at this time, so it didn’t attract much attention.
“You old ox, where are you running?”
The Monkey King saw that Prisoner Ox was not far from him, so he immediately shook the Purple Golden Bell again, summoning a terrifying flame that went straight for Prisoner Ox, “Today, this King might get to eat some roasted beef!”
Hearing this, Prisoner Ox was furious, but his injuries were severe, so he could only continue to flee.
However, he was too badly injured and was eventually caught by the Monkey King. “Monkey King, can you spare this old ox’s life?”
“Spare you? Heh heh, go to hell!”
The Monkey King simply shook the Purple Golden Bell and roasted Prisoner Ox to death, then devoured his flesh and blood with an extremely excited expression, “This peak fifth-rank fierce beast is such a great tonic! I can even feel the energy contained within it this time!”
By the time there was nothing left of Prisoner Ox, the Monkey King’s cultivation had also climbed directly from mid-fifth-rank to peak fifth-rank!
He immediately let out a joyful roar to the sky, “Tiger King, the day I kill you is not far off!”
...At the same time, somewhere in Kunlun Mountain, a spatial rift suddenly appeared. Xia Fan, Magic Cat, and the two beasts, King Kong and Jin Ling, emerged from it.
Relying on the eastern emperor bell’s ability to traverse the void, Xia Fan finally escaped the pursuit of the Severed Arm. At this moment, he took out sixteen jade slips and said in a low voice, “Let’s see what we’ve gained this time.”
He had obtained these jade slips in the remaining palace of the Rain Immortal Realm. After checking them one by one, he found that nine of them mostly recorded some secrets of the Immortal Realm and some ordinary immortal techniques.
The remaining seven, however, all recorded some powerful immortal techniques related to Immortal Monarchs.
Immediately, Xia Fan used his soul ability to explore the first jade slip that recorded ancient immortal techniques, but he quickly pouted, “So it’s Summoning Wind and Rain!”
The first immortal technique recorded in this jade slip was one he had already comprehended, and it wasn’t considered a particularly good immortal technique.
Xia Fan didn’t look at it much, after all, the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Transformations he had obtained by devouring the Pig King earlier were much more advanced than this. Now he muttered to himself, “It seems that some ancient immortal techniques have actually been obtained by many bloodline awakeners long ago. I can also obtain them from them.”
“For now, let’s see if there are any immortal techniques in this jade slip that I haven’t mastered yet.”
He continued to use his soul power to investigate, scanning through the immortal techniques within the jade slips one by one, and also murmured their names, “Rain Spirit Finger, Divine Arrow Technique…”
“It seems that the strength of that Immortal Monarch back then wasn’t too outstanding either!”
Soon, he had finished reading the first jade slip, and there were no immortal techniques in it that interested him. He couldn’t help but sigh slightly, “These immortal techniques aren’t very useful to me right now.”
“However, King Kong and the others can observe them more.”
