87: Chapter 87: Clash of Extraordinary Intelligent Races on the Origin Continent!
To this day, the creatures of the hundred races that first stepped into transcendent evolution on the Origin Continent have basically undergone Awakening and gained intelligence.
Some of them have relatively simple minds, but others possess extremely high intelligence, in some respects even surpassing that of ordinary humans!
Furthermore, under the influence of transcendent evolution, their appearances have changed dramatically!
Without careful investigation, it is basically impossible to discern their original species' roots.
"Huh, this race is somewhat interesting."
Jiang Jin's eyes flickered, piqued with interest.
Taking a step, his figure arrived in the northern part of the continent.
Without him actively revealing his form, no living creature in the world could see him.
At this moment, within Jiang Jin's line of sight, a group of small monkeys was huddled inside a cave, watching the bloody slaughter in the dense forest not far from the cave entrance with terror!
There, more than a dozen adult monkeys, wielding clubs made of special wood, were fighting against a pack of five or six White Wolves!
Among them, the leader—a "White Wolf King" larger than a calf—had eyes that kept rolling, flashing with a cunning glint.
It was easy to see at a glance that its intelligence was extremely high, comparable to that of an ordinary human!
Awooo!
In the intervals where scarlet blood flew, the White Wolf King leaped up with its sturdy limbs, jumping onto a banyan tree as thick as four people hugging it, and howled toward the sky.
"——Not good!!"
"This White Wolf King is summoning the rest of the White Wolf pack!"
"Sheng, take the younger monkeys and retreat first; we will hold them off here!"
The White Wolf King's long howl caused the expression of the oldest and most robust monkey—the Clan Chief—to change drastically!
As an old monkey who had grown up in the cruel environment of the transcendent dense forest, it understood the habits of the White Wolf pack in the northern continent extremely well!
Without the slightest hesitation, the old monkey turned its head and spoke resolutely to a young monkey in chattering sounds.
"Old Clan Chief, we are already struggling to deal with these five or six White Wolves; if more come, how will you be able to resist?"
The young monkey "Sheng" gripped a pitch-black club in its hand, its expression somewhat anxious, and chattered again:
"Moreover, you know how dangerous the depths of the dense forest are; where can I escape to with a group of underage monkeys?"
In the surrounding dense forest, following the White Wolf King's howl toward the sky, the other White Wolves stopped their attack.
However, their bloodthirsty eyes stared at the dozen or so adult monkeys, eager to bite through their necks the next moment and gorge themselves on the incredibly delicious flesh.
"Hoo..."
After a bloody battle, the old monkey's stamina was greatly depleted, and its body bore several gruesome bloody wounds from the White Wolves' claws; it took a deep breath, trying its best to calm its mind.
After a few breaths, the old monkey seemed to experience a "flash of final vitality," its eyes flashing with a strong light of wisdom as it said to the young monkey Sheng:
"Go north!"
"It is cold there all year round, covered in ice and snow day and night; apart from a few small tribes, there are simply no signs of powerful creatures!"
"Take root there and pass down the spark of our species' civilization as a Legacy!"
"Old Clan Chief, I cannot leave..."
Sensing the old monkey's words of death, as if giving a final testament, Sheng's mouth trembled, and it shook its head, its tone somewhat choked with emotion.
"Go——!!"
"Do you want our race to be completely annihilated here!"
"Go quickly, or else when the entire White Wolf pack gathers, it will be too late to leave!"
The old monkey's tone was fierce, and it roared angrily a few times.
Looking closely, the hand gripping the thick wooden club was trembling slightly!
"Sheng, leave quickly; remember to raise my little monkey. I originally wanted to watch it slowly grow up, but alas..."
"Go, Sheng, don't look back; the future of our 'Furry Monkey Tribe' is all entrusted to you."
"Remember, you must ensure the race continues and pass down our Legacy..."
"..."
At this time, the rest of the adult monkeys also wore expressions of determination to die, forcing a smile and waving for Sheng to leave.
In this most dangerous and desperate moment, Sheng knew the gravity of the situation; fighting back tears, it knelt and kowtowed several times to the dozen or so adult monkeys.
Immediately, it picked up the pitch-black club, turned, and strode away.
Although Sheng desperately wanted to turn back and fight to the death alongside its kin, thinking of their pleading words during the farewell, it kept its hand tightly gripping the club, unable to loosen its grip for a long time.
"Let's go, we are going to find a new 'home'."
Not long after, Sheng hurriedly returned to the cave and set off on the road to the far north with forty or fifty young monkeys.
Awoooo!!
A dozen White Wolves, as large as calves, darted out from all corners of the dense forest.
With a roar from the White Wolf King, they dashed out on all fours, their figures as fast as lightning, launching an attack once again!
"Kill!"
The old monkey spun its wooden club, its eyes revealing intense killing intent, and with a low shout, it charged forward first!
Looking closely, its body was filled with rich transcendent energy, and while fighting the White Wolves, a layer of earthy-yellow halo armor appeared on its body surface!
This layer of "yellow armor" was very special; the ordinary White Wolves' sharp claws could hardly tear through it, creating a harsh, crisp sound as they scratched against it.
Bang!
One White Wolf's claw attack failed, and the old monkey, wielding its wooden club, struck directly at the heart of the enemy, smashing the creature's large head to pieces with a single blow!
Blood accompanied by brain matter burst out all around, causing the other White Wolves to hesitate, their gazes toward the old monkey filled with a trace of timidity!
"Aooo!"
Seeing this, the White Wolf King on the banyan tree could no longer hold back!
It roared angrily, leaped up with its four limbs, and swung its hard, sharp claws, which gleamed with a cold light, slashing down from mid-air!
Slish——
The White Wolf King also possessed "transcendent abilities"; its sharp claws flashed with faint white "wind blades," tearing through the old monkey's yellow armor!
The sharp claws also took the opportunity to tear through the fur, ripping off a large chunk of flesh!
Roar!
Clutching its shoulder blade where the flesh was missing, the old monkey's eyes were bloodshot, and it let out a primal roar of pain!
This all seemed to take a long time, but in reality, it happened in a flash, lasting only a few breaths.
The remaining adult monkeys no longer waited, each wielding their wooden weapons, and charged at the ordinary White Wolves, who were clawing the ground with their limbs and had bloodthirsty glints in their eyes.
Whoosh!
The two races entered a bloody slaughter; the White Wolf King quite enjoyably devoured the torn piece of flesh, its figure turned into a wind blade, and it fought the old monkey again!
Puchi.
After a long while, the scene of slaughter in this dense forest ceased.
The wooden club in the old monkey's hand fell, and it spat out a stream of scorching heart-blood from its mouth.
In the end, it collapsed weakly to the ground, eyes wide open, dying with lingering resentment!
"Awooo."
Looking at the bloody feast on the ground, the White Wolf King's fur bristled; although there were wounds on its body, it still howled toward the sky, emitting a victor's cheer.
Then, it pointed with its front limb, and the remaining seven or eight surviving White Wolves began to tear and bite, enjoying this delicious feast of transcendent flesh.
The White Wolf King, in the posture of a victor, walked proudly to the body of the old monkey.
With one bite, it began to feast on its heart first.
