This was definitely Xiong Er’s masterpiece!
Jiang Nan and Zhong Yingxue locked eyes, both brimming with excitement!
Clearly Xiong Er had not been wiped out in this spirit surge. He was alive and clearly thriving!
Jiang Nan immediately radioed Ye Xinghe. “How many islands have you cleared?”
Ye Xinghe: “Sixteen! These spirit beasts are total pushovers. No challenge at all, yeah?”
Jiang Nan: “I’ve located the core fragment. Take the brothers to Yali Island first. I’ll send you the coordinates!”
“It’s complicated over there. Wait for me before you move. The spirit beasts on that island are absolute monsters! They…”
Ye Xinghe: “Haha, got it! You just watch! Can’t let you hog all the cool points, right?”
“By the time you arrive, it’ll already be over. Leave it to me! One hour! Total sweep!”
*Beep beep beep~*
The call ended abruptly!
Jiang Nan rolled his eyes. That confident?
You have no idea what the word “monster” really means!
He then contacted Wu Liang and Xia Yao, telling them to head to the island and wait for him!
After that he scooped Zhong Yingxue into his arms, jumped on his beloved motorbike, and roared straight towards Yali Island!
At this moment Jiang Nan could not wait to see Xiong Er again!
…
Ye Xinghe, Qi Yu, and the others flew to Yali Island!
They were genuinely shocked by how dense the spirit energy was. White mist even drifted between the trees!
“Holy crap! This spirit energy density is almost a third of a spirit pool!”
“Huh? Didn’t they say there were spirit beasts? Why can’t I hear a single roar?”
“Yeah! It’s so quiet!”
“Look, there’s a little gorilla over there!”
A bronze-tier baby gorilla squatted in a tree, tilting its head curiously at Ye Xinghe and the team!
It was honestly kinda cute!
Ye Xinghe cracked his neck. “Bronze-tier trash, ignore it! One hour! Sweep the island, brothers, let’s go!”
Everyone flashed confident grins. Spirit energy exploded outward, scaring the little gorilla into vanishing in a puff of smoke!
Fifty volunteers rolled up their sleeves and charged into the forest!
…
In a clearing at the centre of Yali Island, several hundred silverback gorillas had gathered!
At the nearby cave entrance, more than a hundred silverbacks formed a long queue, scratching their heads in eager excitement!
Muffled thuds and bangs echoed from inside the cave like firecrackers going off!
A little gorilla suddenly burst anxiously out of the trees and ran straight to the largest gorilla in the clearing!
Pure white fur, either a mutation or something else!
Nearly twenty metres tall! A terrifying gold-tier-10!
The little gorilla gestured wildly, face full of panic!
“Roar roar~ roar!”
(Chief! Bad news! Loads of punching bags are coming to fight us!)
The white-furred gorilla’s eyes lit up!
It shot upright, face deadly serious!
“Roar?”
(How many?)
The little gorilla held up ten fingers and waved them five times!
“Roar roar roar~ ooh roar?”
(So many punching bags! We can’t beat them all! Should we go get the big boss?)
The white gorilla curled its lip. “Pffrrrt~”
(For this little thing? No need to bother big brother!)
Then it grinned, flashing a mouthful of huge yellow teeth!
“Roar wa~ awoo awoo!”
(Brothers! Follow me! Go catch punching bags and come back to pray for the divine blessing!)
With one mighty roar, every silverback present lit up with excitement, thumping their chests in response!
Grabbing wooden clubs and massive rocks, they charged after the white gorilla!
White gorilla: “Roar hey roar!”
(Use that move from last time!)
…
Ye Xinghe frowned. “Didn’t they say the spirit beasts here were monsters? How come we haven’t seen a single one?”
Qi Yu: “Seriously bald-making. Is South God pranking us?”
Qin Shou looked disappointed. “Our holy swords have nowhere to shine!”
Thirty minutes deep, apart from that first little gorilla!
Not half a spirit beast in sight!
Just then Ye Xinghe’s eyes sharpened!
“Black Dragon Breath!”
A dragon breath shot from his mouth, blasting half a cliff to rubble!
Under everyone’s stunned gazes, a pure-white gorilla stepped out from behind the collapsed cliff!
Half-lidded eyes full of swagger, not the slightest trace of fear!
Twenty metres tall, gold-tier-10 terror level, everyone’s hearts jolted!
This was the highest-tier spirit beast they had seen in the entire Qiandao Lake spirit ruin!
The white gorilla stood upright, curled its lip, took one step forward!
(･᷄⊖･᷅)┌∩┐
It flipped them the middle finger, instantly leaving Ye Xinghe and the team dumbfounded!
Their faces turned red with rage!
“It flipped me off? I actually got flipped off by a white gorilla today?”
“Who the hell is it looking down on?”
“Look at that gorilla! Its face literally spells arrogant!”
“Nobody hold me back! I’m ending it today!”
Eyes bloodshot, they charged straight at it!
The white gorilla smirked, struck a perfect iron bridge pose!
Legs forming “┌┐”, one huge hand reached back, gritted its steel teeth, and strained hard!
Everyone stared in horror at the unmentionable object now clutched in its hand!
Still fresh!
That massive pile!
Ye Xinghe’s face went white in an instant. “W-w-what is it doing?”
“It can’t be…”
The white gorilla hurled the unmentionable object straight at the crowd!
The scene… yuck~
“Pwaa! Quick! Dodge!”
“It threw poop at me? Aaaaaargh!”
“Ptoo ptoo ptoo! Bleeurgh~”
“I’ll kill you! Kill you!”
In an instant Ye Xinghe and the team had their lungs explode with rage. There’s no playing like this!
Fifty volunteers, eyes crimson, charged the white gorilla like madmen!
The white gorilla spun around, slapped its own backside, leapt high, turned tail, and ran!
The volunteers behind unleashed fireballs, massive ice spears, chasing for their lives!
The white gorilla hugged its head, howling as it fled, bombs exploding all around it!
Yet it still bolted frantically into a barren valley!
The valley ended in a sheer black cliff. It bounced around in panic, clearly terrified!
Ye Xinghe: “Haha! Keep running? Dead end! Where’s all that arrogance now?”
Qi Yu cracked his knuckles. “Today I’ll teach you how to gorilla properly!”
Qin Shou: “Best not to be that arrogant when you’re just a gorilla!”
The team rushed into the valley, itching to give the white gorilla a proper beating!
Just as they were about to strike, everyone froze!
They all looked down at the exposed black rock of the valley!
No abilities worked? This was raw spirit-binding iron ore?
The white gorilla, which had been terrified a second ago, suddenly stood tall and flashed an evil smirk!
(΄◞ิ⊖◟ิ‵)
“Roar wa!”
With one resounding roar, hundreds of silverback gorillas appeared atop the valley walls!
Each holding massive black boulders overhead!
The valley entrance was already blocked by over a hundred club-wielding gorillas!
Cold sweat poured down everyone’s faces!
They’d been baited?
Are you kidding me!
Since when do gorillas use military tactics?
“We… we’re screwed, aren’t we?”
“No abilities, our physical strength is trash compared to spirit beasts!”
“Bullshit! Look at them grinning! These gorillas have to be humans in disguise!”
“Are all the spirit beasts on this island this insane?”
In an instant, boulders rained down. Gorillas wielding clubs charged in!
The valley echoed with endless wails of pain!
Ten minutes later!
Hundreds of silverback gorillas marched triumphantly through the forest!
Each proudly carrying a bruised and swollen volunteer on its shoulders, heading excitedly towards the cave!
…
Jiang Nan roared up to Yali Island on his little motorbike!
Wu Liang and the others were already waiting!
“Hm? Big guy, where’s Ye Xinghe and the rest?”
Wu Liang: “No idea? Maybe they’re not here yet!”
Jiang Nan was baffled!
Didn’t they say they were really close to Yali Island? One hour to sweep it clean! How are they still not here?
So weird~
