Su Luo saw that even in such a state, the Four-tailed White Ape still dared to wear such a radiant smile.
He immediately kicked off the air beneath his feet, achieving an effect akin to teleportation.
In an instant, he arrived before the Four-tailed White Ape.
The smile on the Four-tailed White Ape's face froze instantly, its pupils dilating as it clearly had yet to react.
Vibration Power flashed around Su Luo's fist as he smashed it into the Four-tailed White Ape's four eyes.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The sound of space shattering rang out.
Splat—
Under such a devastatingly powerful punch, the Four-tailed White Ape's four eyeballs were crushed like four watermelons.
The immense pain caused the Four-tailed White Ape to pass out on the spot. Su Luo swept it with a cold gaze, confirming that it no longer possessed even a shred of resistance.
Just as he was about to extract its crystal core, a sensation of the earth trembling and mountains shaking suddenly struck.
The four instinctively sensed that something dangerous was approaching and, in perfect unspoken coordination, all retreated.
Crackle, crackle—
As the ground shook more and more violently.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
A series of heavy footsteps suddenly sounded, accompanied by the crash of great swathes of trees falling.
Suddenly, the four felt as though something had blocked out the sun above them.
All four raised their heads in unison.
They saw a pitch-black giant ape, breathing heavily.
It was staring at the unconscious Four-tailed White Ape with a bewildered, helpless expression.
When the giant ape's gaze shifted from the Four-tailed White Ape's body to its four eyes.
That blood-soaked sight.
Made the giant ape throw back its head and let out an earth-shaking wail.
"Roar!"
The waves of that mournful roar stirred up clouds of dust around them, mingled with the giant ape's terrifying pressure.
From that pressure alone, the four determined that this was absolutely a Level 5 Exotic Beast equivalent to a human Supreme Being.
The grief in the giant ape's heart was already beyond words.
For the Four-tailed White Ape was its most outstanding offspring.
It had mutated from an ordinary black-furred ape into a white ape, its intelligence greatly enhanced.
Moreover, it could raise the intelligence of the entire troop, something the giant ape itself could never accomplish.
Most importantly, it not only possessed extraordinary intelligence.
It also possessed four eyes capable of rendering other creatures rigid.
Those four eyes had helped their troop win battles both great and small.
They had seized many forests rich in food and killed humans who trespassed into their territory.
It could be said that it was precisely because of the Four-tailed White Ape that their troop had developed to its present state.
But today, all of that had been destroyed.
The Four-tailed White Ape's eyes were completely ruined. Though it had not yet died from its grave wounds, there was little difference between that and death.
The giant ape turned to look at Su Luo and the others, its sky-high hatred now completely impossible to suppress.
"Roar!"
The giant ape raised its forelimbs and viciously pounded its chest several times, then lifted its right hand and fiercely hammered the ground.
The earth beneath Su Luo and the others immediately shook as though heaven and earth were overturning, while crack after crack split open across it.
Seeing this, Azure Flame Wings sprouted from Su Luo's back. He seized the hands of the three women and flew away from the ground.
Seeing Su Luo and the others take to the air, the giant ape leaped up fiercely and swung a fist at Su Luo in midair.
Su Luo reacted quickly, immediately enveloping all four of them in azure flames.
The giant ape's enormous fist crashed into the azure flame barrier, sending all four flying.
The azure flame barrier shot straight into the dense forest and rolled several more times. Only after they were completely safe did Su Luo let it slowly fade away.
The figures of the four emerged from the disappearing azure flames, completely unscathed.
Seeing this, the giant ape was so furious that it beat its chest and stomped its feet.
Su Luo settled the three women and gave them a reassuring look.
Then he flew straight toward the giant ape, intending to test himself against the creature in close combat.
To see whether this giant ape was harder to deal with, or the Giant Elephant in the Illusion Tower.
When he was a few meters from the giant ape, he clenched his right hand into a fist, gathered Vibration Power within it, and threw it forward violently.
The giant ape refused to be outdone and swung a fist at Su Luo.
The two vastly unequal fists collided with a thunderous boom.
The deafening explosion made the three women watching from the sidelines cover their ears involuntarily.
Then a fierce shockwave spread mercilessly in all directions, kicking up a great wave of dust.
Dust and smoke filled the scene, leaving the three women unable to see what was happening inside.
Crack! Crack!
The sound of bones breaking rang out from within the dust.
But they did not know whether they belonged to Su Luo or the giant ape.
After a strange silence.
A barrage of blows suddenly erupted from within the dust, like raindrops pelting down.
Crack! Pop! Crack! Pop!
The three women could only hear the fighting within the dust growing faster and faster.
Until Su Luo spread his wings and flew high, emerging from the dust.
Azure flames coiled around both his fists, apparently treating the injuries he had suffered in that intense exchange.
Su Luo's gaze was calm as still water as he quietly sensed the movements within the dust.
When the dust settled, what appeared before the four was a giant ape whose forelimbs could not be raised at all.
The giant ape's forelimbs hung limply at its sides. Its hand bones were shattered, blood streamed everywhere, and in some places, fragments of crushed bone could even be seen.
The giant ape looked up at Su Luo in the air, its gaze eventually settling on Su Luo's arm.
At that very moment, Su Luo's arm had also finished healing beneath the azure flames.
The azure flames dispersed, and Su Luo's arm returned to its former fair appearance.
Seeing this, the giant ape's eyes widened at once, its pupils seeming to undergo an earthquake.
It truly could not understand why this human before it could fight so fiercely.
Those humans who had trespassed into their territory before.
Had either been effortlessly defeated and eaten by it, or suddenly vanished without a trace.
This was the first time it had ever encountered such a monstrous human.
Seeing Su Luo looking at it with an utterly calm expression.
A deep sense of powerlessness suddenly surged into its heart.
So this was what it felt like to be crushed in defeat. It truly felt awful.
Seeing that the giant ape no longer had the strength to fight, Su Luo did not waste words on it.
He teleported before the giant ape and directly shattered its brain with one punch.
The giant ape's consciousness completely vanished, and its massive body could no longer support itself as it collapsed limply.
Su Luo extracted the giant ape's Level 5 Crystal Core and slipped it into his pocket.
He turned to the three women watching and signaled that they could come over.
At this moment, Shen Huaiyue and the other two were still immersed in the shock of Su Luo defeating a Level 5 giant ape without taking a single injury.
They were all human, so why was the gap between them so vast?
Still, this was not the first time Su Luo had left them so stunned.
The three women each gathered themselves and headed toward Su Luo.
At that moment, Su Luo had already arrived before the Four-tailed White Ape.
The Four-tailed White Ape's aura was now extremely weak, as though it might croak at any second.
Su Luo's compassion surged forth, and he could not bear to see it suffer so much.
He directly smashed his fist into the Four-tailed White Ape's huge head.
In an instant, the Four-tailed White Ape completely lost all signs of life.
