Chapter 458: Chapter 459: The Powerful Liuren
Although the price of the Heavenly Fragrance Life-extending Pill was somewhat steep, Li Xiaobai had resources on hand, notably several tens of millions of Spirit Stones.
Not to mention all sorts of other precious materials; in the current marketplace, whether it was a talisman or elixirs, he could buy whatever he wanted without worrying about a shortage of Spirit Stones, perhaps this was what being domineering was all about.
The attribute points from the energy and shockwaves of the explosion in the void stabilized between fifty thousand and seventy thousand.
This number of Attribute Points had already surpassed the stomach capacity of the Sea Clan bosses, and even his own defensive power could not endure such attacks for long.
Bloodstains continuously appeared on his body, a web of fissures spreading rapidly.
However, with the Heavenly Fragrance Life-extending Pill, he could always recover almost immediately.
The wounds that reached deep to the bone cycled between rupturing and healing, but because of the System, Li Xiaobai did not feel too much pain. Aside from some itchiness, he felt little discomfort from the crisscrossing fissures on the surface of his body.
[Attribute Point+50000…]
[Attribute Point+60000…]
[Attribute Point+70000…]
Watching the Attribute Points on the system panel soar, Li Xiaobai couldn’t help but reveal a smile as he popped another Heavenly Fragrance Life-extending Pill into his mouth.
[Host: Li Xiaobai.]
[Attribute Points: One million.]
Put them all in defense!
[Defensive power: Half-step Human Immortal body (5.1 million/10 million) (Immortal Spirit Qi: Not acquired) upgradable.]
Good, in just less than half an hour, his Attribute Points had increased by a million, having already surpassed halfway to the ten million mark.
It was just a pity that the Sea-Calming Divine Needle only lasted for a limited time, and it was about to disappear soon.
But the closer to the end, the more critical it became; the Long-Armed Divine Ape should now show its true strength and begin to fully deploy Shatter the Skies.
Li Xiaobai’s eyes were fixed on the sky, watching every move of the golden monkey head.
Watching Li Xiaobai flip his wrist and swallow bottles of elixirs, the old beggar wailed in despair. The ability to instantly recover from fatal wounds, the potency of which was so strong that even he would be tempted, was now being consumed by someone else as if they were mere sugared beans—such lavish wastefulness!
With just one bottle of this elixir, he could last for several decades, but now it was being consumed so casually, a bottle at a time. He had never seen anyone waste so wantonly!
Wastefulness is shameful!
Even when imprisoned in the remote frontiers, he had never felt such despair.
Pieces of meat, right before his mouth, just flying away.
High above in the firmament, the conflict continued.
Just as Li Xiaobai had anticipated, the Sea-Calming Divine Needle’s time was almost up. The Long-Armed Divine Ape changed from its previously calm demeanor to extreme agitation, with its rage even surpassing that of the encounter in the Central Province.
Its long arms wrapped around the Sea-Calming Divine Needle as green dragon veins throbbed vehemently; its entire body’s golden fur moved on its own without any wind, emitting terrifying power. Visible ripples spread out in the void, emitting an aura of utmost danger.
In the golden pupils of his eyes, double pupils suddenly appeared, bursting with brilliance, piercing directly into Liuren’s eyes.
In just an instant, Liuren felt the Sea-Calming Divine Needle above him being pressed down with an even more terrifying force. The opponent had no intention of using nimble movement techniques in combat, determined instead to resolve the battle purely with power.
If the opponent’s power was strong, it would have to use an even tougher power to crush the adversary.
“This is a double pupil!”
“An image of an emperor, what is the origin of this monkey, that it is also a Monkey King!”
At this moment, Liuren’s complexion truly changed. The strength exhibited by the Long-Armed Divine Ape exceeded her imagination; even she had to take it seriously.
However, what truly shocked her was not the power it possessed, but the various characteristics it revealed. The opponent was too similar to her Six-Eared Macaque.
Both were the Artifact Spirits of the Sea-Calming Divine Needle, both were monkeys, both could communicate with the Sea-Calming Divine Needle to exert power, and even the double pupils were the same. The only difference was the appearance of the two monkeys.
She was exceedingly shocked.
She resolved in her heart that once this matter was concluded, she must invite Li Xiaobai to the Eastern Sea’s Aolai Country to understand the situation in detail. Perhaps it involved some kind of ancient secret.
At that time, she would call upon her eldest sister and her younger sister. Unlike her, the two sisters had studied the Heavenly Divination Technique since childhood and had profound research on history. Maybe they could confirm something from Li Xiaobai.
“Roar!”
Liuren howled, her arms shook, and golden hair burst forth from her body. The Six-Eared Macaque Bloodline within her was fully activated, transforming completely into a golden-haired monkey.
Li Xiaobai below clearly saw that beneath her original two ears, two more ears grew out, turning her into a four-eared monkey!
The golden mini-sun rapidly shrunk and merged into the center of her forehead, a rush of heat instantly flowing through her limbs and bones.
Clenching her fists tightly, she smashed them once again towards the golden barrier above her head.
“Since you want to compete in strength, then I will fulfill your wish!”
Liuren no longer held back, and with fierce light piercing through the sky from her eyes, she roughly grasped the characteristics of the Long-Armed Divine Ape. There was no need to continue dragging this out.
Her fluffy fist transformed into a searing sun; her fingers turned into claws, likewise embracing the other end of the Sea-Calming Divine Needle. The muscles in her arms bulged as she forcefully competed in strength. The originally unstoppable momentum of the Sea-Calming Divine Needle slowed down, and was forcibly halted in mid-air.
“Cough cough, everyone, it looks like the Vice Leader has been dragged into a stalemate. Seems like an opportunity here; should we…”
Observing the stalemate between the person and monkey in the void above, an elder below sneakily suggested.
The target was wide open; it felt wrong not to launch a sneak attack.
“Hmm, it indeed looks like that. Why don’t you try first; the Vice Leader should not be able to spare the effort to deal with you now,” another elder beside remarked.
“Hehe, maybe we should keep observing. Caution never leads to big mistakes,” the elder retorted, somewhat begrudgingly.
“Roar!”
Above the clouds, the Long-Armed Divine Ape grew even more furious, exerting insane strength in its hands, but no matter how it struggled, the Sea-Calming Divine Needle remained immovable.
Not only that, but it was also astonished to find that its end of the needle was slowly moving upward.
Down below, Liuren’s face turned ferocious as she wrapped her hands around and inch by inch lifted the Sea-Calming Divine Needle. She intended to use the same method against her opponent—the golden Divine Ape wanted to crush them with a cudgel, so she would use the same cudgel to crush the opponent.
“Squeak squeak!”
The Long-Armed Divine Ape became impatient, scratching its ears and cheeks. Its strength was as if non-existent in front of Liuren, achieving nothing. Because of “Shatter the Skies,” it couldn’t leave the Sea-Calming Divine Needle, or else the skill it activated would be terminated. Therefore, it could only watch powerlessly as it was slowly lifted.
“You beast, die!”
Liuren shouted angrily, pulling the Sea-Calming Divine Needle swiftly upward, hoisting it above her head. Then, with a few light steps on the void, she cleverly smashed the Sea-Calming Divine Needle down towards the depths of the frontier!
