The heavenly slayer demon ape, sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened its eyes and vanished from the cultivation room. In the next moment, it materialized beside Tan Yun, wielding a dark stick!
Seeing the sudden appearance of the heavenly slayer demon ape at the tenth level tribulation stage, Sun Chen was momentarily taken aback, then scoffed, "Tan Yun, even if I am heavily injured, I can still crush a demon ape that hasn't even become an immortal!"
He also admitted that if this tenth-level tribulation stage demon ape had the strength of a first-level immortal beast, it could indeed kill him. However, he completely disregarded a demon ape at the tenth level tribulation stage that had not yet become an immortal!
"Die!" Sun Chen, bleeding from seven orifices, swung his sword at the heavenly slayer demon ape!
"The one who will die is you, not me!" The demon ape unleashed a surge of black demonic power from within and swung its stick to meet the downward sword strike!
"Clang!"
Amidst the sparks flying, when the demon ape's stick struck the Flying Sword, Sun Chen was horrified to find that, despite his heavy injuries, he could hardly grip the sword firmly!
"This is bad, this demon ape actually has the strength to challenge a first-level immortal beast; I must kill Tan Yun and then escape!"
Having made this resolute decision, Sun Chen flashed away from the rock and appeared beside Tan Yun, aiming his sword at Tan Yun's throat!
"Clang!"
With a clash of metal, the heavenly slayer demon ape was even faster, crashing its stick into the point of the sword aimed at Tan Yun's neck, forcing the Flying Sword to plunge into the gap between the rocks beside Tan Yun!
"Master, how are your injuries?" After inquiring, the heavenly slayer demon ape's body exploded in size, reaching nine hundred feet tall, with the black stick in its hand growing to a thousand feet!
"Tan Yun, this time you are lucky! Next time, I will definitely kill you!"
Prioritizing his own life, Sun Chen did not hesitate to soar into the sky, summoning the Immortal Ship to escape!
"Old Ape..." Tan Yun's voice was barely audible as he said, "Don’t worry about me… you must catch him!"
Upon hearing this, the heavenly slayer demon ape nodded heavily and charged into the clouds.
It did not swing its stick at Sun Chen; instead, it struck the Immortal Ship, sending it flying!
"No!" Sun Chen cried out weakly as he watched the Immortal Ship being blasted away.
At that moment, holding the stick in his right hand and suddenly opening his left hand, the heavenly slayer demon ape swiftly caught Sun Chen in its palm.
In the palm, Sun Chen was engulfed in darkness, and then felt the heavenly slayer demon ape's massive palm constricting, pressing down on him.
"Don't... don’t kill me!"
"Crack, crack!"
Sun Chen screamed in agony as the heavenly slayer demon ape crushed both of his shoulder bones!
He begged for mercy while feeling extremely unwilling, spitting blood in frustration!
At the tenth level of the punishment immortal realm, capable of challenging an eleventh-level expert, he thought that under normal circumstances, it would be easy to eliminate this demon ape!
Yet now, he had not only failed to kill Tan Yun, a first-level punishment immortal realm, but was also being held in the palm of this demon ape that had not yet become an immortal beast!
"I must survive, and then seek revenge!" Sun Chen thought darkly, then pleaded, "Tan Yun, please don’t let it kill me."
"As long as you spare my life, I, Sun Chen, am willing to be your servant in return!"
"Moreover, the plan to kill you was forced upon me; it was an order from Miao Jincheng."
"If we don't kill you, Miao Jincheng won't let me go!"
"Please, don’t let it kill me; I am also trapped... I beg you!"
Tan Yun, lying on the ground, remained indifferent. After a brief rest to regain some strength, he summoned the Supreme Mustard Seed Time-Space Immortal Palace with a thought.
Then, enduring intense pain throughout his body, Tan Yun stood up unsteadily and entered the first level of the Immortal Palace.
