Chapter 629 - 625: Biluo Immortal Vine

Chapter 629: Chapter 625: Biluo Immortal Vine

RUMBLE!

Bathed in pillars of silver and gold light,

Ape Qitian and Lion Ridge’s bodies began to change at a startling speed.

The silver radiance around Ape Qitian intensified, shining like a bright moon and unleashing terrifying waves of energy.

Inch by inch, silver fur sprouted all over him. Ape Qitian, who was originally just under two meters tall, had now swelled to a height of over three meters.

His muscles bulged and grew wildly.

They looked like they were forged from lead, containing boundless power. It seemed as if every twitch of his muscles could rival the full-powered strike of an expert. Wisps of silver electricity arced around his body. He had transformed into an Ancient Battle Ape.

Utterly badass!

Lion Ridge was similarly enveloped in a golden radiance.

It was sacred, holy, powerful, and majestic.

His head gradually lost its human features. His golden hair whipped about as if in a gale, growing wildly.

In an instant, a monster with the body of a man and the face of a lion appeared before Hong Yu.

His figure was somewhat hunched over, but this was certainly not a sign of old age.

On the contrary...

At this moment, Lion Ridge’s vital energy and blood surged. He was incomparably young, incomparably strong.

The reason for his hunch was that his muscles had grown so powerful they were bending his spine.

"ROAR!"

"ROAR!"

The two transformed War Emperors threw their heads back and roared at the sky.

Rings of soundwaves blasted out from their roars, causing the very void to crackle and the Prohibitions to hum and tremble.

In the Audience Seats!

Countless experts turned pale. Those weaker than the War General Level even felt their legs go weak, losing control of their bladders and bowels.

"Beichen, die!"

Ape Qitian was the first to shout. At some point, an ink-black greatclub had appeared in his hands.

There were no patterns or Inscriptions on the club at all. It looked like a piece of wood charred black, as thick as a grown man’s arm. But when Ape Qitian scraped it against the ground, it produced a deep THUD-THUD, like rolling Thunder, terrifying beyond measure.

"ROAR! Beichen, you should be proud to die at the hands of two War Emperors!"

Lion Ridge brandished his Great Halberd, having already torn off his Battle Armor.

The defense of his transformed muscles was even stronger than his Battle Armor.

He was practically indestructible, like a Vajra!

Hong Yu stared at the two of them, his gaze graver than ever before. The sense of crisis they gave him was even more intense than when he had faced Venerable Xiahuang.

This battle was destined to be a difficult one.

Of course.

But Hong Yu felt not a shred of fear. Instead, the confrontation stimulated the bloodthirsty battlelust in his very bones. His eyes darkened, and with a cold "Heh heh," he thrust out his Godslaying Spear.

"Die!"

Ape Qitian and Lion Ridge attacked simultaneously.

The radiance of the Battle Halberd shot into the sky as golden energy surged madly, forming an Illusion Transformation of a great golden lion that pounced with ferocious might.

Ape Qitian swung his giant club.

A black storm swirled around his hands, and with a THUD, the greatclub came crashing down.

They launched a pincer attack from the left and right.

"Hmph!"

A cold snort escaped Hong Yu’s nostrils. Tapping a toe to the ground, his figure shot backward in an instant.

"BOOM! BOOM!"

The two heavy attacks landed one after another on the spot where Hong Yu had just been standing.

RUMBLE!

The entire ultimate battlefield shook violently. Even the spectators were jolted out of their seats before falling back down heavily.

Someone asked blankly, "What happened? Was that an earthquake?"

"Earthquake my ass! Their attacks shook the very ground!"

"They’re that strong?"

Everyone looked at each other, utterly shocked.

"Kill him!"

Having missed their target, Ape Qitian and Lion Ridge didn’t hesitate for a second. They stomped on the ground, instantly cracking the arena floor, and their bodies shot after Hong Yu like cannonballs.

Hong Yu was retreating face-up toward the sky.

Ape Qitian and Lion Ridge glanced at each other, seeing the grim smiles in each other’s eyes. They simultaneously stabbed their weapons into the ground beneath Hong Yu and then fiercely swept them upward.

In his current position, it was most difficult for Hong Yu to defend against an attack from below.

BANG! BANG!

Two consecutive heavy blows sent Hong Yu flying high into the air.

His body was launched airborne as if struck by lightning. A searing pain flared across his back. The attack from Ape Qitian and his partner had clearly injured him, nearly rupturing his internal organs and causing him to spit out a mouthful of thick blood.

Gritting his teeth against the intense pain, Hong Yu tumbled through the air to stabilize himself.

He saw Ape Qitian and Lion Ridge charging at him again.

Without a moment’s delay, he stepped on the void and blinked away three consecutive times to evade them.

SWISH! SWISH!

Ape Qitian and Lion Ridge stood side-by-side in mid-air, staring intently at Hong Yu.

They were like two supremely powerful Ancient Wild Beasts, their bodies wreathed in terrifying vital energy that coiled around them like great dragons. With every breath they took, Battle Qi surged from their mouths.

War Emperors, truly War Emperors!

The Emperors of combat!

The War Race was an inherently bloodthirsty and bellicose people. After reaching the War Emperor Level, they could communicate with their Ancestral Spirits and summon them to perform the War God Transformation.

Once the War God Transformation was activated, their combat power would rise steadily.

The longer they fought, the stronger they became.

A cruel, vicious light gleamed in their eyes as they sneered at Hong Yu. "Weren’t you so arrogant just now? Heheheh, you’re dead for sure today. Not even the Celestial King himself could save you!"

Ape Qitian also chuckled, his jagged teeth glinting with a grim white light. "Beichen, to have lasted this long against the two of us... I have to admit, you’re very strong. To have such combat power at the mere Peak of the Primordial Embryo Realm, you must be a top-tier prodigy even among humans. But..."

"You will still fall here today!"

"We will splatter your blood across the ground and use your head to forge a monument, a warning to all those ignorant humans who dare provoke our War Race!"

The two of them sneered relentlessly.

They were like cats toying with a mouse, full of mockery and confidence, certain that Hong Yu had no chance of fighting back.

But Hong Yu just laughed out loud. "You’re really confident, aren’t you? But I wonder if you’ve ever heard a certain saying..."

"What saying?"

The two of them faltered.

Hong Yu grinned. "It’s not over until it’s over. No one can say for sure who will have the last laugh!"

"Haha. Don’t tell me you think you can still make a comeback?"

"Are you trying to be funny?"

Lion Ridge and his partner were supremely confident.

But Hong Yu shook his head. "I was thinking of holding back a little longer, but your combined strength truly exceeds my expectations. So, I won’t be holding back anymore!"

"Hm?"

"Not good, fall back!"

Lion Ridge’s expression changed, and he quickly pulled Ape Qitian back.

The very instant they moved,

Hong Yu’s figure appeared before them, having crossed a hundred meters in a flash. The golden Spear Aura was like an Azure Dragon expelling its Dragon Breath. With a BOOM, it blasted a crack in the space where the two had just been standing.

"That was close!"

Ape Qitian broke out in a cold sweat.

If Lion Ridge hadn’t pulled him back in time, he would likely be severely injured by now.

Then, a wave of confusion washed over him. ’How did he suddenly get so fast? It’s like he just vanished!’

"The Space Transfer Technique. That’s the long-lost Space Transfer Technique!" Lion Ridge said in a low voice, his face incredibly grim.

"Oh? A wondrous technique like that still exists?"

A greedy, feverish light flickered in Ape Qitian’s eyes. In a low voice, he said, "Lion Ridge, let’s not kill him later. We’ll cripple him and then imprison his Soul. Isn’t your grandfather a Master of Soul Refining Techniques? We can have him help us refine Beichen’s Soul and force out the secrets of the Space Transfer Technique."

"You mean?"

Lion Ridge’s eyes lit up.

Ape Qitian nodded. "If you and I can master the Space Transfer Technique, we might even be able to go to the core region and sneak into the War Spirit Ancestral Land to find the ultimate War Ancestor’s inheritance!"

"Alright!"

Lion Ridge’s eyes also burned with fervor as he nodded.

"I’ll take out that Treasure now. You distract him, and I’ll take the opportunity to restrain him. Then we’ll join forces to kill him and extract his Soul for imprisonment!" Ape Qitian sent via voice transmission.

Lion Ridge nodded.

’What are those two talking about?’ Hong Yu’s eyes darkened, a hint of regret in them.

He was annoyed that his surprise attack had failed.

Just as he was preparing to attack again, he saw a verdant green clump of grass suddenly appear in Ape Qitian’s hand.

Why call it a clump of grass?

Because the fist-sized green object was, in fact, a clump formed from compressed weeds!

’What is that?’

Hong Yu frowned, feeling a sense of suspicion and uncertainty.

"Kill!"

Lion Ridge charged over, Battle Halberd in hand.

His killing intent soared to the heavens.

Hong Yu, on high alert, charged forward with his Godslaying Spear.

He raised his hand and executed the Piercing Void Spear Technique.

The golden Dragon Scales on the Godslaying Spear writhed intensely, as if an Azure Dragon were stretching its muscles. Then, a ball of golden light shot out.

This golden orb of light contained an incomparably sharp energy.

Like a golden lotus, it spun through the void and, in an instant, reached Lion Ridge before exploding with a BOOM.

Lion Ridge was already on guard.

He raised his Great Halberd high and brought it crashing down. With a BOOM, the brilliant golden Great Halberd transformed, extending to a length of a hundred meters and smashing down to meet the golden lotus, proving to be its equal.

"Come and fight me!"

Lion Ridge roared, swinging his Great Halberd at Hong Yu once more.

Possessed by an Ancestral Spirit, his strength was boundless.

Hong Yu held his spear with one hand and blocked horizontally.

BANG!

The immense force instantly traveled up his arm, numbing the web between his thumb and forefinger and causing the Godslaying Spear to fly from his grasp.

"Now’s the chance!"

Lion Ridge’s eyes filled with ecstasy as he roared back over his shoulder.

"Coming!"

Ape Qitian answered excitedly, "Biluo Immortal Vine, go!"

The clump of grass in his hand suddenly shot out, appearing before Hong Yu in an instant.

’What the hell is this thing?’

Hong Yu was startled to suddenly see a clump of grass flying at him.

He instinctively tried to retreat.

However...

The seemingly ordinary clump of grass exploded with a BOOM and began to grow wildly. A green light enveloped Hong Yu, and countless green vines spread like a Demon’s tentacles, instantly wrapping around his arms and legs.

No matter how Hong Yu struggled, he couldn’t break free from their grasp.

This Biluo Immortal Vine was not a Primordial Weapon but a strange, rare, and precious plant—a Treasure of the Great Ape Tribe.

Once used, it could instantly conjure tens of millions of incredibly tough vines. Even a powerhouse at the War Emperor Peak would find it difficult to escape if caught off guard by the Biluo Immortal Vine.

In a flash, Hong Yu was bound by the Biluo Immortal Vine like a rice dumpling, completely unable to move.

BOOM!

Lion Ridge kicked Hong Yu, sending him flying and crashing to the ground.

Ape Qitian flew over quickly.

Ecstasy filled their eyes. Ape Qitian said, "Let’s do it now, before anything else can go wrong!"

"Alright! Watch me cut off his head and extract his Soul!"

Lion Ridge laughed heartily. His Great Halberd pulsed with a sharp golden light as he brought it down toward Hong Yu’s head. But Hong Yu was bound tightly by the Biluo Immortal Vine, unable to move. He could only watch as the Great Halberd fell, just a hair’s breadth away from smashing his head to pieces.

Just then...

The Biluo Immortal Vine binding Hong Yu began to change unexpectedly!
