The First Volume Chapter Five: The Spiritual Ape Battles the Python, Both Suffer Defeat
At dusk, such a spectacular phenomenon quickly caught the attention of everyone in the city.
The quiet night of Akakawa City was suddenly broken. The whole city immediately heard a loud and deafening roar.
"Daughter's... it's actually true that this is the Blood Hell Gate. This damned gate has appeared just like that, and right in front of me?"
Gazing at the swaying red neon lights, a terrifying entrance that seems to have a life of its own.
Only sixteen-year-old Zhuo Yifan felt a sense of fear. He stopped in his tracks, staring blankly at the gate.
The gate and the wooden door of his own room are generally large, more than two meters high and over one meter wide.
Above was a gigantic evil spirit head, with eyes emitting eerie red light, as if it were an emissary from hell, with a mouth full of sharp teeth, ferocious and terrifying.
In addition, there is a stone handle on the door. The ancient and long-lasting breath emanates from the mysterious lines on the handle, releasing a strange energy.
This made Zhu Yifan's hair stand on end, and the air around him seemed to have cooled down a lot.
"Is this the Blood Prison Gate that's said to be a shortcut for the strong and has trapped Father? How ominous!"
Zhuo Yifan took a deep breath, blinked his eyes, rubbed his almost shattered butt, and stumbled away. A pair of reddish gleaming eyes stared at the door for a long time.
He circled around this terrifying gate with a flickering red glow, turning round and round.
There was a dry, bloody phlegm in his throat. He coughed up several mouthfuls of hot air and reached out to touch the icy stone handle.
Suddenly pulled back!
Bang!
The tyrant's energy suddenly arrived, and Zhuo Yifan felt that the blood vessels in his hand were instantly sealed by a strange power, numb and insensible, like an ant biting, immediately making Zhuo Yifan dare not have any intention of offending this Taoist gate again.
"...What a strange door, Father... Is he really in the world inside?"
Zhuo Yi Fan was suddenly counterattacked by the gate, staring at the evil spirit on the gate, and retreated two steps back, indulging in this strange 'Blood Hell Gate' He was deeply trapped, unable to extricate himself, his emotions fluctuating unpredictably, complex and multifaceted.
"The Gate of Blood Prison... What an evil gate..."
"My father is in there... I don't know if he's doing well or not, whether he's alive or..."
"Could it be that this is an opportunity given by the heavens? Could I possibly have a chance to enter the Gate of Blood Hell?"
Zhuo Yifan's gaze was hazy as he stared at the red glow emanating from the 'Blood Prison Gate', his eyes fixed on the gate, lost in thought. This feeling was quite wonderful.
In an instant, I had a feeling of merging with the surrounding scenery.
In the daze, the 'Gate of Blood Prison' seemed to creak open, revealing a slit...
"It's an illusion, it must be an illusion..."
He shook his head violently, let out a long sigh, and pulled the handle again.
"Ahh!"
This time, it wasn't a shock, but a thunderous beast roar! It scared Zuo Yifan's face pale!
"Is there actually a spiritual beast in this place? Although this grassland is closer to Qingyang Mountain, it's unlikely that a spiritual beast would run here, right?" Zhuo Yifan was startled.
He was perplexed, but then the scene in front of him left him stunned.
He rubbed his eyes, and all he heard was a loud rumble. The Gate of Blood Hell suddenly opened, and amidst the hazy blood light, two magnificent and resplendent aura clusters suddenly burst out, one purple and one gray.
Two air masses were sprayed out tens of meters away in the middle of the grassland, followed by two consecutive loud explosions.
A giant ape, three to four times taller than a normal person, and a massive purple serpent, with a waist as thick as seven or eight feet, emerged in terrifying forms as the air mass descended! The two enormous spiritual beasts were entwined on the grassland.
The python opened its bloody mouth, revealing two giant silver fangs protruding outwards, and bit down on the giant ape's arm. The biting force was sufficient, causing Zuo Yifan's heart to be shocked and his flesh to jump.
Clang! A clear ring of metal collision.
This giant ape used its steel-like arm and easily dodged the python's deadly bite attack.
Iron arm 'whoosh' sound, drew out the python's bloody mouth, and python's silver tooth scraped out sparks, scarlet eyes burst out intense anger.
"Stinky snake! Go die!"
The giant ape let out a loud roar, the earth-shaking howl was like a volcanic eruption, whipping up a fierce storm that swept across the entire mountain range.
Giant python! Giant ape! And they can talk, fighting right in front of me?
Zhuo Yifan was stunned, and he rubbed his eyes vigorously, looking around in all directions. Clearly, many cultivators had already gathered near the Blood Prison Gate.
Everyone's expression, either joyful or surprised, stared straight at the blood-colored gate in front of them, and didn't notice the intense battle between Zhuo Yifan and the giant ape at all.
No way! This is absolutely impossible!
He closed his eyes, shook his head violently, and pinched his face hard.
The real pain once again made Zhuo Yifan's eyes widen, revealing a shocked expression.
"This is true! This is actually true!"
Staring at the scene in front of him with a look of astonishment, his mouth wide open, almost big enough to swallow an apple.
It seems to be another space, a different space that has nothing to do with this vast grassland. Although he can see the other cultivators, the other cultivators cannot see him.
To confirm his speculation, Zhuo Yifan quickly ran to a monk and heavily punched him in the face.
Wow!
Just as the fist was about to hit the monk, a solid punch suddenly pierced through the monk's body.
"What's going on here?" Zhu Yifan was somewhat at a loss.
As the two spiritual beasts fought more and more fiercely, countless energy balls went crazy on the lawn, leaving behind a mouthful of deep pits emitting black smoke.
All of this shocked Zhuo Yifan, his face filled with embarrassment and cold sweat pouring down. He became even more frightened and quickly fled, hiding behind a large tree one hundred meters away.
Two spiritual beasts were as large as houses, and even from a hundred meters away, the intense battle was still clearly visible to the eye.
"Whoa! What a terrifying power! If I were to be hit by the energy ball in the sky, I'd be done for!"
Zhuo Yifan stared at this scene in shock and horror, looking around frantically, trapped in this strange space with no idea how to get out.
"Stinky ape! You killed my child, I'll take your life today!"
The giant python let out a long hiss, its massive body twisting and turning as it flew over and bit down hard on the giant ape's neck. The dark green tail coiled around, wrapping the ape's entire body tightly in its thick, muscular coils. The sound of friction was like a sharp knife cutting through glass, making one feel very uncomfortable.
"Ahh!"
The giant ape let out a painful roar, the earth-shattering sound almost bursting Xiao Yifan's eardrums. The latter swung his two golden steel-like arms and pulled open the thick snake body with one hand.
"Such power, at least ten elephants, or even more? If I get hit once, I'll be dead!"
Zhuo Yifan had completely gone numb. If possible, he really wished he could wake up faster and escape this terrible dream.
"Boom!"
A purple-black energy sphere suddenly appeared in the giant python's mouth and shot towards the giant ape's head.
The giant ape, however, refused to give in and used its sturdy arms to resist.
"Rooooar! Nine Underworlds Swallowing Heaven Python! You're just a bug!"
The two iron arms of the final giant ape collided with the massive energy ball produced by the Nine Underworlds Swallowing Heaven Python, producing a fierce collision. With the two as the center, a strong air wave burst out, suddenly exploding into a mushroom cloud, pushing away all the flowers, grass and trees around, and the surrounding area instantly became a desolate wasteland.
"Swallowing Heaven and Earth?"
Zhuo Yifan's pupils suddenly constricted as soon as he heard the name, and he carefully examined the appearance of these two spiritual beasts, lost in thought.
Although there are differences in the shape of the spiritual beast drawn by Father in the notes, both Zuo Yifan and Fan recognize these two spiritual beasts.
That dark purple giant python is called the Jiuying Tiantian Python. It's a spiritual beast from the Blood Hell. Its nature is sinister and cruel, it can confuse people's minds. Many cultivators have died under its bloody jaws. Even if ten pre-heavenly spirit realm cultivators join forces to fight against it, they will still be easily defeated. Moreover, the Jiuying Tiantian Python is born with a "demonic pupil" that can trap enemies and ensure victory.
And that brown-haired giant ape was called Iron Arm Ape, famous for its two indestructible arms. Fiercely powerful, it was said to be able to withstand any sharp weapon.
Zhuo Yi Fan thought of this, and suddenly inhaled a mouthful of cool air. He felt his head spinning, the two Blood Hell's only reverse heavenly spirit beasts appeared before his eyes, and anyone would think that their brain was not enough to handle it. Moreover, these two ferocious guys could speak human language, and their intelligence was obviously no lower than humans.
After the suicidal attack, the fight between Jiuyin Tuntian and Tiebi Lingyuan also gradually subsided.
Both of them were charred and emitting rolling heat, both were injured by this powerful energy beam.
Finally, the two massive objects fell down at the same time. The dust and dirt that was stirred up spread out to cover the sky and the ground. After an unknown amount of time had passed, the dancing sand particles finally settled back into the dust on the ground...
Zhuo Yifan, hiding in the distance, let out a light breath as he saw the end of the battle, witnessing this fight that far exceeded his own level. His blood surged and his heart beat wildly.
Two spiritual beasts have died. He thought he could leave, stood up and looked around strangely, only to find himself still trapped in this space.
"What kind of place is this?! How am I supposed to get out?!"
In this strange space, there was a unique oppressive force that invisibly restrained his soul, making him unable to breathe, and the blood circulation of his entire body seemed to slow down several times...
The ancient ring also began to tremble at this time.
This vibration is not some kind of supernatural phenomenon, but a dangerous omen. Every time the ancient seal vibrates, something bad happens.
"It didn't move in the morning, it didn't move at night. Now that we've encountered danger, you're finally moving." Zhuo Yifan stared at the ring, feeling speechless and shocked in his heart. Could it be that he would never be able to take it off for his entire life?
