Chapter 136: Solo Battle Against Five Fierce Warriors

  "You old rascal, all of this is your own doing. You committed countless evils in the past and have long been detested by both heaven and man. It's already a great fortune that you've managed to live until today." The ape scolded angrily.

  "You two young ones are not qualified to judge me, this world has no absolute justice, there is only victory or defeat. You two little rascals, stop pretending to be righteous in front of me... Bah!" The man spat on the ground as he spoke, and the gibbon, enraged by the insult, was about to attack him, but was stopped by the principal. The principal looked at the gibbon with a calm expression, and the gibbon, knowing better, halted its aggressive movement. However, it still muttered under its breath: "Old rascal, if you weren't useful, I would have killed you long ago."

  "Dugu Zhāo Liè, all these years have passed, and yet you still haven't given up." The Dean's face remained calm as he looked at the man he called Dugu Zhāo Liè. The man burst into loud laughter again upon hearing the Dean's words: "Hahahaha... Tiān Yuán Zǐ, Tiān Yuán Zǐ, you also know that so many years have passed, and yet you still can't do anything to me. At most, you can only lock up my power, what else can you do? What else?" Dugu Zhāo Liè's voice grew louder and louder as he bellowed at the two of them.

  "We will let you out now." The principal said extremely calmly.

  "What did you say? Let me out?" Du Guo Zhuo Lie asked with an incredulous face. But after a moment, Du Guo Zhuo Lie burst into loud laughter: "Hahaha... you two little devils are getting better and better at joking, do you think I'm an idiot?"

  "I wasn't joking with you, I said let you out, just allowing you to move freely within the Human Valley, did you think I would let you go somewhere else?" The principal still spoke in an extremely calm tone. As soon as he finished speaking, the principal's hands quickly formed a few gestures, and at the moment his gestures were completed, Dugu Zhāo Liè's body suddenly lit up with a burst of light and slowly rose into mid-air. After a while, the light on Dugu Zhāo Liè's body disappeared and he fell back to the ground.

  The Dean and the apes saw Du Guo Zhuo Lie fall to the ground, but they didn't care, turned around and slowly left Du Guo Zhuo Lie's location. At this time, only Du Guo Zhuo Lie was sitting on the ground, looking at his body in surprise. After a while, Du Guo Zhuo Lie laughed loudly at the sky again...

  "Senior brother, now that we've restored the old man's freedom, aren't you afraid of him recovering his own strength?" Monkey asked the principal in puzzlement.

  "What's there to fear? Don't worry, I've just lifted the time and spatial constraints on the old man. Now he can move about freely within the Human-Devouring Gorge, regardless of day or night, location, or anything else. But he still can't leave the gorge, what's there to fear?" The principal said calmly.

  "I know that, but that old guy is also a powerful figure, his strength can't be underestimated. If he really recovers his power, it'll be troublesome later." said the anxious monkey.

  "You're not usually afraid of anything, so why are you being so timid and womanly today? Don't you have any faith in Master at all? Do you think the four iron chains on him are just for show? Even if he were back to his normal self, there's no way he could escape." The principal smiled as he looked at Yuan Lang, who also relaxed his expression upon seeing the principal's calm demeanor. The two of them disappeared into the dense forest in an instant.

  Inside Tianzhu Brook

  Du Fei's recovery speed from injuries and illnesses had also increased significantly after his breakthrough in Gong Fa and Xiū Wèi. At this point, Du Fei had already started cultivating again, and the injuries he sustained during the battle with the ape were long gone.

  Only Du Fei was seen sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a faint layer of golden light flashing on his arms from time to time. He was concentrating on cultivating the Fumo Golden Vajra Transformation because he wanted to use the dual yuan pearls in his dantian to create gold elements. Due to his previous pre-study of the Fumo Golden Vajra Transformation and the extremely large amount of primordial energy in his body, Du Fei was able to cover his arms with golden elements after only a few days of cultivation. However, this was also the maximum limit that Du Fei could achieve, as the first stage of the Fumo Golden Vajra Transformation was the Fumo Golden Arm, which meant that both arms had to be gold-plated first. As long as he could stably cover his arms with golden elements for a long time and control the release of the elements at will, it would be considered successful; otherwise, if the elements were blocked in the meridians, it would also be considered successful. Du Fei's arms occasionally flashed with golden elements, which meant that he was still unable to stabilize the golden elements and could only cover his arms with them for a short time.

  "Ah, ha...ha...so tired." Du Fei opened his eyes wide and lay on the ground panting heavily. Large beads of sweat fell from his forehead quickly. After resting for a while, Du Fei caught his breath and took out the Wordless Heavenly Book. He asked: "Why does this martial skill consume so much internal energy? I haven't even used it for half an hour and my internal energy is already depleted?"

  "How would I know? You ask me, who am I supposed to ask? This is the Jin family's ultimate technique, a sacred middle-tier martial skill. Can it be compared to those monkey tricks you learned before?" The Wordless Heavenly Scripture said.

  "This is faster than that thousand-hammered and hundred-refined hammer technique in consuming yuanqi." Du Fei shook his head and said.

  "Kid, stop complaining here. Do you know that many people spend their entire lives being told they're cultivating sacred-level martial techniques, yet they've never even seen one? You, on the other hand, have several sets of sacred-level martial techniques with you at all times." The Wordless Heavenly Scripture wrote.

  "Alright, alright." Du Fei said impatiently, and began to circulate the Tianyuan Jue to recover his energy. After about half a time, Du Fei was full of spirit again, and resumed practicing the Fumo Golden Vajra Transformation. However, he couldn't persist for even half a time before becoming exhausted. Tired, Du Fei started circulating his Qi to recover his energy once more, and after recovering, he continued to practice, repeating this cycle over and over again.

  Unconsciously, half of the day's time had passed, and now it was already nightfall. Du Fei also stopped cultivating and walked out of Tian Zhu Xi to the edge of the cliff, waiting for the apes to complete the most arduous and perilous course of the day.

  But today was very strange, Du Fei waited for two or three hours and didn't see the monkey's shadow. Du Fei couldn't sit still, stood up and shouted loudly: "Monkey, your grandfather is here, why don't you show up?" As soon as Du Fei finished shouting, the valley responded instantly with several echoes.

  "Waaaah..." Just as Du Fei's shout faded away, the valley was suddenly filled with several eerie and terrifying roars, sending chills down one's spine. Du Fei was also taken aback, thinking to himself: "Strange, why are there so many Primordial Beast calls today?" As he thought this, Du Fei began to be on high alert, for at that moment, he clearly sensed a killing intent spreading around him.

  This was indeed what Du Fei had expected, and at this moment, a giant python with a body length of about 30-40 meters appeared not far from Du Fei. Its eyes were fierce and its face was ferocious, looking at Du Fei as if it had seen a delicious food, revealing a greedy color. Du Fei saw that several giant pythons had come out, and after careful observation, he found that there were five of them, four of which were green in color, while the largest one was black and white with a spiral pattern on its body, and on the top of its head stood a single horn, it was clear that this snake was the leader of the group.

  "Hiss...". The five snakes, upon seeing Du Fei, continued to spit out snake-shaped objects. Du Fei saw that he was blocked by the five giant pythons and turned his head to see a cliff behind him. Wanting to escape, Du Fei gritted his teeth and suddenly pulled out a large knife from his hand, which was precisely Silver Snow.

  The giant python saw Du Fei take out the silver snow and suddenly stood up, quickly spitting out a few snake letters. The other four giant pythons instantly shot towards Du Fei, who also gritted his teeth and jumped, cleverly stepping on several snakes to avoid their attacks. He landed steadily behind the four giant pythons, but in front of the single-horned python. Du Fei looked up to see the single-horned python revealing its ferocious fangs, staring at him, and his heart was already...

  The giant python suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and a water column quickly spouted out of its mouth. Du Fei saw the high-pressure water column spraying towards him, and he quickly raised his silver snow knife to block it in front of him. The python's water column hit the back of the silver snow knife, and some water splashed onto the nearby vegetation, which instantly withered and died, emitting black smoke. Du Fei was also shocked by the sight of the vegetation, thinking to himself: "This water is poisonous!" At the same time, the four giant pythons that had attacked Du Fei earlier turned their bodies around and sprayed out four high-pressure water columns towards him. Du Fei, alert to the pythons' movements, made several beautiful flips to dodge the water column attacks.

  "Haha, junior brother, you're really something else. Whenever you appear in this valley, the killing aura is so overwhelming that it suppresses the entire region for miles around, and no one dares to make a move. But tonight, since you didn't come, suddenly it's all lively here. It seems like this little guy is going to have a tough time tonight." The principal smiled as he placed one hand on the ape's shoulder, gazing down at Du Fei from hundreds of meters above.

  "Stop messing around, let's take a good look at this kid and see if he can really do it. If something unexpected happens, all my hard work for half a year will be wasted." Yuer said seriously.

  "It's nothing, if this kid is going to die here anyway, it wouldn't be worth your time and effort. You say that, besides, didn't the master say we can't lend a hand to this kid? Let him destroy himself in there. Have you forgotten?" The principal laughed.

  "I know this, just don't make a fuss about it." Yuan Yuan stared intently at Du Fei below.

  At this time, Du Fei had already confronted the giant python, surrounded by several giant pythons in the middle, slowly moving his feet. Several giant pythons saw Du Fei's slow movement and also moved with Du Fei's rhythm. Suddenly, a green flower python took the lead and launched an attack on Du Fei...
