Chapter 900 Towering Tree, Cleverly Capturing the Monkey Demon

Ye Kang and Su Hongxiu both felt a sudden jolt in their hearts.

To everyone's surprise, Musashi Feng knew about Su Zhongjing.

Seeing the two men's surprised expressions, Wu Zangfeng smiled slightly: "There's no need to be nervous. General Su has wanted to subdue that eagle for a long time. He has submitted memorials many times before, but the court does not want to affect its relationship with the demon race at this time. You should know that we can capture three thousand Nirvana Realm demons without any problem, but we need to be extremely careful and make all sorts of preparations to kill even one True Return Realm demon saint."

"I didn't expect that even His Highness knew about my father's affairs. It seems that all those petitions over the years have not been entirely ineffective."

Su Hongxiu laughed self-deprecatingly.

Musashi Feng said calmly, "Actually, I support General Su, but unfortunately I am just a prince and cannot get involved in these matters. However, if you can gain the Emperor's favor at the Mitian Dharma Assembly, it is not impossible to have a chance to persuade the Heavenly King Wei."

Lingquan County was under the jurisdiction of Wuyang City and under the control of the Heavenly King Wei.

This is also why the imperial court has never paid attention to Su Zhongjing.

"Thank you for your advice, Your Highness, but this matter is still too far away from us. Right now, we only want to complete the Great Heavenly Dharma Assembly."

Ye Kang changed the subject and didn't continue the conversation.

His intuition told him that this Musashi was no ordinary person.

Concealing one's sharpness may simply mean hiding one's true abilities and remaining humble; it's best to avoid getting involved.

Musashi Feng didn't ask any more questions. He stood up and said, "Now that everyone has refined the Crimson Radiance, I should be going. I'm sure we'll meet again soon."

After saying that, he flew up with his hands behind his back, looking down at Ye Kang: "I see that you have the Fortune and Prosperity Circulation on your bodies, so you must have refined the Fortune and Prosperity Pearl. This item was originally a hidden reward set up by the Emperor. It is your skill to find it, but don't go too far. My Ninth Brother is not as easy to talk to as I am. In his eyes, the Fortune and Prosperity Pearls in the Dragon Guardian Land all belong to him."

Having said that, Musashi immediately flew away.

Ye Kang was silent for a moment, then asked with some doubt, "Is he trying to warn us?"

"The Ninth Prince, Wu Jiuyuan, is extremely arrogant and acts with absolute self-importance. No one can defy him. If we really offend him, we will be in danger."

Luo Xue frowned, her expression slightly worried.

She also felt unlucky, never expecting that so many people would care about a single lucky charm.

First, I encountered Ye Kang, and then the Ninth Prince. How come they are all more and more unapproachable?

Luo Xue was quite clever and quick-witted, so she could see that Pang Jinchui had always treated Fu Luzhu as something indifferent, and what he really wanted was Ye Kang.

"Never mind, there's always a way out. If I'm really scared by a single sentence, I'm not worthy of a higher level of martial arts." Ye Kang shook his head, not caring at all.

He's just the Ninth Prince. I'll undergo a few more rebirths, and then we can just have a fight.

I'm determined to get the Fortune and Prosperity Beads.

Su Hongxiu also said, "I should go too."

Ye Kang was somewhat surprised: "Isn't the head of the school coming with us?"

Su Hongxiu shook her head: "I have a secret method that can judge the cultivation level of demons and monsters without fail. I don't want to give you the demon soul mark."

She put her hands on her hips and flew away without looking back. Ye Kang was stunned for a moment, then chuckled bitterly. Ignoring her, he led Pang Jinchui and Luo Xue toward the location of Fu Lu Zhu.

A lot of time was wasted on the Crimson Glow, but fortunately the Heavenly Blessing Instrument remained unchanged, indicating that the Fortune and Prosperity Pearl was still there.

The three quickened their pace and finally arrived at noon.

This time it wasn't a lake; what appeared before the three of them was a giant tree over a hundred meters tall.

The giant tree is so tall that its top cannot be seen, and its width is greater than a hundred people can encircle.

Luo Xue immediately looked troubled.

"This is terrible! It turns out that good fortune doesn't necessarily have to dissolve in water; it can also be hidden in trees. This tree must have absorbed too much good fortune to grow so huge."

"It is indeed very large, otherwise it wouldn't have attracted demons here."

"what?"

Luo Xue was stunned for a moment, and then she saw Ye Kang and Pang Jinchui staring at the tree canopy at the same time.

Her pupils contracted, and she finally released her divine sense with all her might, and was able to see the scene above the treetop clearly.

A white-haired monkey with arms longer than its body and sharp teeth and a pointed mouth was eating fruit while watching them.

"A monkey demon who has undergone six rebirths in Nirvana!"

Luo Xue cried out in surprise, and then saw the monkey demon hanging from a tree branch by its tail, its arms crossed over its chest, looking at the three of them with great disdain.

"I never expected that even though I hid so well, I could still be found. It seems that such a good place is indeed easy to attract people."

Ye Kang also replied with a smile, "The Monkey King knows how to choose a place. You know this tree is special, don't you?"

"Insolence! I am the Emperor, not some Monkey King! Can't you speak properly?"

The monkey demon immediately became enraged, frantically scratching its face with both paws, baring its teeth and looking quite comical.

Ye Kang waved his hand dismissively: "Whatever, it doesn't matter, you're going to die soon anyway."

Upon hearing this, the monkey demon was taken aback at first, then revealed a sinister smile.

"Don't try to fool me. You came here for the auspicious spiritual energy inside this tree, didn't you? I'm right in the canopy. If you dare to make a move, you'll damage the giant tree. Once there's a wound, that strange spiritual energy will dissipate, and you'll have wasted your time. Why bother?"

Luo Xue paused for a moment, then whispered, "I heard Zhong Ming mention it, and it seems to be true..."

Pang Jinchui immediately looked annoyed, threw the hammer to the ground, and then flew into the treetop with a burst of speed.

Seeing this, the monkey demon remained calm and moved nimbly through the bushes.

On the other hand, Pang Jinchui was unable to exert any force because she couldn't damage the giant tree, and her speed couldn't keep up with the monkey demon at all. She was immediately outmaneuvered.

The monkey demon laughed loudly: "Interesting, interesting! I guessed right again! If you want spiritual energy, you can't hurt me! Hahahaha! And I'm telling you right now, if you dare to touch anything, I'll destroy this tree. Then it'll be a fight to the death, let's see what you do then!"

"I'm furious!"

Pang Jinchui reached out to grab her, but she dodged it again. Her face flushed with frustration, and she had no choice but to fly down.

The monkey demon became even more rampant.

"Oh dear, you little brats who haven't even grown their hair yet, don't try to amuse yourself with me here. Hurry up and leave, go find some spiritual energy elsewhere, or you'll regret it."

Luo Xue sighed helplessly, "This is really bad luck. It just so happens to be a monkey. We can't catch it, and we can't hit it."

However, Ye Kang remained calm and unaffected by the monkey demon.

He laughed and said, "If you all come at me together, we might be able to catch him."

"Huh? Really?" Luo Xue was very puzzled.

Ye Kang nodded: "You'll know once you try."

"Okay! I listen to you!"

Although she had no hope, Luo Xue did not argue and immediately flew up with Pang Jinchui.

Seeing this, the monkey demon laughed even more unrestrainedly.

"A bunch of naive fools, what can you do even if you all come at me together in my territory!"

After saying that, he disappeared like a ghost. Pang Jinchui and Luo Xue attacked from both sides at the same time, but he skillfully dodged their attacks.

The canopy of this giant tree was already extremely large, and the monkey demon's talent in arboreal abilities was unmatched. With a gentle flick of its tail, it could immediately escape being captured.

Instantly, the entire tree canopy was filled with the monkey demon's maniacal laughter.

"Come on, come on, I'm right here, come and catch me, hahahaha!"

"That's what you said."

Suddenly, a voice rang out. The monkey demon was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, countless spider silks had already wrapped around his body, restraining him tightly.

At the same time, streaks of pink sword energy were already pressed against his neck. If he dared to make any sudden movement, he would be pierced through in an instant.

This scene happened so fast that not only was the monkey demon dumbfounded, but even Pang Jinchui and Luo Xue were surprised.

"what happened!"

The monkey demon turned his head in disbelief, staring into Ye Kang's eyes: "You brat, when did you...?"

"Just now."

"Impossible! How can you be so fast!"

"Don't assume it's impossible just because you haven't seen it before," Ye Kang shook his head.

At this moment, the monkey demon looked down and his eyes widened, his face turning pale.

Ye Kang's legs were completely hidden from the branches, as if they were naturally growing there. It should have looked very incongruous, but it didn't look out of place on him at all.

At this moment, everyone realized what was happening.

"You know the Wood Release technique!"

That's right, Ye Kang used the Azure Dragon Shadow Technique. Taking advantage of the monkey demon being restrained, he directly entered the giant tree and unexpectedly arrived behind the monkey demon.

The Entangling Heavenly Silk took advantage of the situation, giving the monkey demon no chance to resist.

To be honest, this trick can only be used once, but it's something that someone encountering it for the first time would never expect.

Luo Xue was utterly astonished.

Unexpectedly, Ye Kang not only possesses extremely profound water escape techniques, but also wood escape techniques!

Moreover, these are all such profound methods; even among the families of Wudu, few possess such advanced escape techniques.

This man really keeps changing my opinion of him.

She was unaware that Ye Kang had actually used the Sand Escape Technique in front of Pang Jinchui, but Pang Jinchui was unaware of it.

Ye Kang looked at the monkey demon with a smile and said, "How about now? Does the Monkey King have anything else to say?"

"You can't kill me! If you do, I'll just self-destruct. That would be a lose-lose situation for everyone!"

The monkey demon gripped the giant tree branch tightly with its two claws, looking as if it were ready to die.

Ye Kang shook his head: "Why bother? After all, you're going to die no matter what."

After speaking, the Myriad Flower Sword Finger was instantly thrust out, leaving countless bloody holes in the monkey demon.

The latter, without hesitation, unleashed its demonic soul form as its physical body was destroyed.

Just when Ye Kang thought he was about to self-destruct, the monkey demon suddenly knelt down in his true form.

"I was wrong! Spare my worthless life! Without a physical body, I am no threat to you anymore!"

After saying that, he actually separated a part of his demon soul, which contained the demon soul mark on his body.

However, forcibly separating oneself from one's true nature can cause immense harm.

Even if the monkey demon can reassemble its physical body after just this one blow, its cultivation level will drop to the first stage of Nirvana.

In an even more serious case, they might not even be able to maintain their Nirvana Realm.

Like a warrior cutting off his own arm, this monkey did everything it could to save its life.

Ye Kang smiled and said, "Even ants try to survive. Since you didn't self-destruct, I'll give you a chance."

Having said that, he channeled his divine sense into the Jade Realm and forcibly threw its remnant soul into the Ink Jade Realm.

Of course, at that moment, Ye Kang had already placed a restriction on the monkey demon's true form, so that if he made any unusual move, his soul would be instantly destroyed.

This is the authority of the master of the small world.

Ye Kang quite admired this guy's shamelessness and decisiveness, and decided to see if he had the ability to rebuild his physical body.

Afterwards, Ye Kang threw the monkey demon's body into the demon furnace. This thing wasn't good enough to be used as a precious material, so he directly refined it.

Sure enough, he only managed to refine some demon materials and a considerable amount of demon blood crystals, but these things were becoming less and less useful to Ye Kang.

He didn't care and immediately pulled over the fragment of the monkey demon's soul that it had voluntarily separated.

First, it absorbed the demon soul imprint on it, and then the Immortal Demon Record activated, swallowing the fragment.

Soon, a new page of the catalog slowly appeared.

"Race: Long-armed, golden-haired, small-leafed mandrill, a mountain spirit, containing a trace of the Great Sage's bloodline, but not yet awakened."

"Ok?"

Looking at this page of information, Ye Kang was a little confused. What was the Great Sage Bloodline?

That sounds amazing. Let's see if this guy has the chance to awaken this bloodline.

That's right, the reason Ye Kang subdued the monkey demon was that he didn't kill it directly.

The main reason is that he actively separated a fragment of his true demonic soul.

With this fragment, the Immortal Demon Record can be compiled into pages about him.

If that's the case, then there's no need to kill them.

In a way, he saved himself.

Ye Kang took a deep breath, and the Immortal Demon Diagram fed back to him, further enhancing his physical strength.

He was very satisfied, and then used the Azure Dragon Shadow Technique to burrow into the giant tree.

It truly lives up to its name as such a towering tree, brimming with boundless blessings and prosperity.

Ye Kang managed to extract five Fortune and Prosperity Beads!

More than that lake!

The system naturally rewarded Ye Kang with 500 million comprehension points, bringing his remaining comprehension points to 900 million!

I've never fought such a rich war before!

He then went out and gave Pang Jinchui and Luo Xue each a Fortune Pearl.

Luo Xue was a little embarrassed and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ye, but I feel unworthy of it. I will not accept the Fortune and Prosperity Pearls I find next time. Please take them with you so that I can feel at ease."

Ye Kang nodded, not refusing. This little girl was quite sensible.

"This place is rich in spiritual energy and sheltered by large trees, making it an excellent cultivation ground. I wish to break through to the mid-stage here, and I would like to ask you two fellow Daoists to protect me," Ye Kang suddenly said.

Luo Xue was stunned.

"No, fellow Daoist? You've only broken through to the third stage a few days ago? That's fast!"

Pang Jinchui was also a little confused: "Master said that breaking through too quickly is not a good thing."

Ye Kang smiled and said, "Don't worry, thanks to the Crimson Origin Glow, my foundation has been solidified. I have already reached the peak of the third stage and it is time for me to break through."

Luo Xue and Pang Jinchui stared at each other, their understanding of the world momentarily trembling.

I've never seen such an incredible cultivation speed. Are you sure it's not some old monster reincarnated?

Ye Kang didn't explain further. He flew directly to the treetop, found the spot with the most abundant spiritual energy, and sat down cross-legged.

The middle stage of Nirvana is here today!
