Chapter Title: The Fire of Life, Space Enhancement
While the long-haired savage ape was in deep slumber, Chen Chu activated the hidden god secret technique to conceal his aura and slowly approached from the shadows of the mountain wall.
However, the minor accomplishment of the hidden god secret technique could only mask Chen Chu’s presence; it could not erase the instinctual danger sense that emanated from the beast.
Thus, when Chen Chu was still over thirty meters away from the mutated violent ape, the beast opened its eyes, sensing something and cautiously scanned its surroundings.
Roar!
The furious ape let out a low growl that reverberated through the valley, echoing like thunder, while the entire gorge fell silent.
After observing the eerily quiet valley, the ape revealed a look of confusion.
Realizing that a sneak attack would not guarantee a quick kill, Chen Chu took a deep breath and flipped his hand to retrieve the battle spear from the Xumi Bracelet.
Boom!
Accompanied by a terrifying aura, the black-red spear shot out like lightning, and in an instant, Chen Chu transformed into a beam of light and surged forward.
Roar!
Under the intense sense of death, the long-haired savage ape’s fur exploded outward, akin to a hedgehog being attacked, as it rolled over and released a brutal roar.
The massive claws, nearly half its body, glinted with golden light, ripping through the air and creating a wave of white qi that surged toward the black-red spear as it slashed down at its knee.
There was no way around it; the long-haired savage ape stood over twenty meters tall, and with the battle spear in hand, Chen Chu could only reach its knee.
In contrast, the nearly four-meter-long battle spear appeared like a mere cotton swab before the giant claws that spanned ten meters; insignificant and frail, but…
Boom!
The moment the claws met the battle spear, the domineering dragon elephant true power erupted, and in the blink of an eye, the violent true power mixed with the sharp spear light created a shockwave that swept across a radius of over ten meters.
Caught off guard by the powerful explosion, the ape stumbled backward.
At that moment, the heavy and domineering battle spear pierced through the air, reaching supersonic speeds, and a fan-shaped plane of pure black vacuum formed instantly.
The gigantic claws of the long-haired savage ape instinctively raised to block in front of it.
Bang!!
The three-meter-long golden claw was cleaved in two by the battle spear, blood spurting from the point of rupture.
Roar!
With two claws severed and its palm torn apart by the shockwave, the long-haired savage ape emitted a cry of agony, unleashing a terrifying momentum at the peak of level five.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!!
Accompanied by the ape's roar, a tangible sound wave erupted from its center, sending an intense chill through Chen Chu's heart.
In an instant, his figure retreated explosively.
Puff, puff, puff!!
The special sound waves triggered the already unstable spatial fluctuations around, resonating and creating numerous long and short black cracks that appeared and vanished within a radius of dozens of meters.
Everywhere the spatial cracks passed, all matter was cleaved in two.
When some black cracks manifested near the long-haired savage ape, faint transparent energy waves rippled through its fur.
Those spatial cracks, affected by the transparent energy emanating from its fur, immediately bent slightly.
This sight made Chen Chu's gaze sharpen.
He hadn’t expected the ape’s fur to possess the ability to disrupt spatial cracks. Coupled with its roaring sound waves causing unstable space to form cracks, it was no wonder it lingered here.
In this place, even an ordinary sixth-level mutated beast might not be its match.
Those sharp, formless spatial cracks could slice through any material, and unless a cultivator had power related to space, there were essentially no defensive measures below the seventh level of heaven.
Even Chen Chu wouldn’t dare to touch those cracks.
Moreover, this exotic beast was not at the late stage of level five but at the peak of level five.
