Six-Eared Macaque's Killing Intent

The six-eared macaque looked at the Dinghai Divine Needle struggling in his palm. His eyes were full of complex expressions, including emotion, regret, and anger. Judging from its expression, it was obvious that he had special feelings for the Dinghai Divine Needle. In his mouth, the Dinghai Divine Needle was even called the Ruyi Golden Cudgel...

"Where did you get this Ruyi Jingu Bang?" As expected of a powerful figure at the level of the Demon Realm Great Emperor level, the Six-Eared Macaque quickly suppressed his complex emotions, fixed his gaze on Zhuge Xiang, and asked.

"A gift from the East Sea Dragon King," Zhuge Xiang replied without any pretense.

"So that's how it was given to me by the East Sea Dragon King," the Six-Eared Macaque nodded, indicating that he understood. After a moment of silence, he returned the Ruyi Jingu Bang (the Sea Calming Divine Needle) to Zhuge Xiang, saying, "The Sea Calming Divine Needle has recognized you as its master, and it is difficult for others to use it. However, judging from your appearance, although your cultivation is low, it is not an insult to it."

"Why is this Sea Calming Divine Needle staff) called the Ruyi Jingu Bang '?" Zhuge Xiang asked curiously, looking at the Six-Eared Macaque seemed quite moved by the Sea Calming Divine Needle.

"Back then, the Four Great Havoc-creating Demon Monkeys of our Demon Realm were renowned for their prowess, and this Ruyi Jingu Bang) was the weapon of the Intelligent Stone Monkey. However, in the end, he betrayed our Demon Realm and joined the Western Buddhist Realm." The Six-Eared Macaque did not intend to hide anything from Zhuge Xiang, but he also did not intend to go into details. He simply gave Zhuge Xiang a general overview.

"Since this is the weapon of that Intelligent Stone Monkey, why did it end up in the East Sea Dragon Palace?" Zhuge Xiang asked in surprise after hearing the Six-Eared Macaque's words.

Of the Four Great Havoc-creating Demon Monkeys, Zhuge Xiang had heard the East Sea Dragon King say that the Six-Eared Macaque possessed the strength of the Demon Realm Great Emperor level. The Intelligent Stone Monkey should be no less powerful. So why is its weapon now in the East Sea Dragon Palace?

"Tens of thousands of years ago, before the Three Realms were divided, a great war broke out between Immortal-Demon War. The Intelligent Stone Monkey perished, and this Ruyi Jingu Bang) originally belonged to the East Sea Dragon Palace. It is likely that the people of the Immortal Realm returned it to the East Sea."

Shaking his head, the Six-Eared Macaque didn't dwell on these old stories. He immediately cut to the chase, saying, "I was wondering what abilities you all possessed to come from the Mortal Realm to the Demon Realm. Now that I see the Ruyi Jingu Bang, I understand. Tell me, what do you want from me after all this trouble to come to the Demon Realm?"

Seeing that the Six-Eared Macaque was getting straight to the point, Zhuge Xiang put aside his curiosity about the Intelligent Stone Monkey from back then and said, "Legend has it that the Six-Eared Macaque, Chaos-World Demon Monkeys, is good at listening. He can discern reason, know the past and the future, and understand all things. It seems that there is nothing in the Three Realms and Six Paths that can be hidden from your ears."

"Not bad," the Six-Eared Macaque nodded without hesitation upon hearing Zhuge Xiang's words.

In the Demon Realm, there's no such thing as humility; everything is based on facts. If one possesses such abilities, one can naturally admit them frankly. "My Innate Divine Ability is this Six Ears, which allows me to hear all the sounds of the Three Realms and Six Paths. If I so choose, I can hear even the voices of immortals in the Immortal Realm or the dozing Ghost Officer messengers in the Ghost Realm."

"As expected..." Upon hearing the Six-Eared Macaque's admission, Zhuge Xiang was shocked. He truly lived up to his reputation as one of the Four Great Havoc-creating Demon Monkeys, a being at the level of the Demon Realm Great Emperor level. "I've come here today because I need your help with something. I want to know the current hiding place of Ying Qianshan of the Great Qin Empire in the mortal Cultivation World. I hope you can assist me."

"As long as you are within the Three Realms and Six Paths, no one can escape my sight and ears. But I am the Great Emperor of the Demon Realm. I have no relation to you, so why should I help you?" Sitting on the Tiger-Skin Throne, although he was only five feet tall and looked like a child, the Six-Eared Macaque exuded a powerful aura that made it difficult to breathe. He looked down at Zhuge Xiang and asked in a calm tone.

Upon hearing the Six-Eared Macaque's words, both Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon wore troubled expressions. Judging from the Six-Eared Macaque's appearance, he was clearly unwilling to help for no reason and wanted to ask for a reward. However, the other party was a powerful figure at the level of the Demon Realm Great Emperor level. How could they possibly offer him a reward to entice him? Ordinary things would not even catch his eye.

"What do you want?" After thinking hard, Zhuge Xiang couldn't think of anything that could move the Six-Eared Macaque. After a moment of contemplation, he asked the Six-Eared Macaque. Since he couldn't think of anything that could move him, he would let him speak for himself.

"Oh? You have quite the forthright nature," the Six-Eared Macaque said with a smile, his gaze falling on the Sea Calming Divine Needle in Zhuge Xiang's hand. "The Ruyi Jingu Bang in your hand is something I desire, but unfortunately, it has already recognized you as its master. Besides, I already have the Sky Pillar Prime, so I have no need for your Ruyi Jingu Bang."

The Six-Eared Macaque's gaze fell upon Zhuge Xiang. Its six ears twitched slightly, as if all of Zhuge Xiang's secrets were about to be exposed in the face of its Innate Divine Ability.

"Bull Demon God Armor? Half-Demon Artifact- level armor, not bad, but unfortunately I already have the Dragon-Slaying Battle Armor, so I don't need it. As for the Immortal Slaying Sword? I'm not good with swords. Hmm? Your physical strength is quite strong, kid. With Third Layer of the Dharma Aspect Realm cultivation, your physical strength is actually no less than that of Immortal-Demon level being." Staring at Zhuge Xiang, the six ears twitched slightly, and soon, the Six-Eared Macaque's eyes lit up.

"You little rascal, you must possess a very good Body Refinement Technique- Body Refinement Technique. If you offer it up, I'll help you out, how about it?" In the end, the Six-Eared Macaque determined what he wanted: the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique possessed by Zhuge Xiang.

"Alright!" Zhuge Xiang readily agreed to the Six-Eared Macaque's suggestion. The Great Strength Bull Demon Technique was originally Demon Realm Cultivation Technique, so handing it over wouldn't be a loss for him. It was much better than giving away treasures like the Sea Calming Divine Needle.

Now that both sides had agreed, Zhuge Xiang touched his forehead with his hand, his Divine Sense surging, and the Cultivation Technique related to the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique Skill gathered together, turning into a point of light between his fingers. With a flick of his finger, he sent the point of light shooting towards the Six-Eared Macaque.

Reaching out to catch the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique shot by Zhuge Xiang, the Six-Eared Macaque focused his mind on it. Immediately, his expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in surprise, "This is... the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique of the Great Sage Pingtian!?"

"The Great Sage Pingtian's Great Strength Bull Demon Technique?" Upon hearing the Six-Eared Macaque's words, the Black and White Monkeys on the Six-Eared Demon Hall also exclaimed in surprise.

The Great Sage Pingtian, one of the Three Great Sages of the Demon Realm, holds a supreme position and can be considered the demon among demons. The Thirteen Great Emperors, although powerful and standing proudly at the pinnacle of the Demon Realm, are three Great Sages who have reached the peak of the Refining Void to Dao Integration Stage. Their unparalleled power is enough to contend with the Heavenly Dao.

The further one progresses in cultivation, the greater the gap between levels becomes. As for the Great Emperor level and the Great Sage level, there may only be one difference, but this difference is much greater than that between Cultivator at the Great Accomplishment Stage and Cultivator at the Immortal-Demon level in the Mortal Realm.

Suddenly seeing that Zhuge Xiang had taken out the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique of the Great Sage Pingtian, even the Six-Eared Macaque, as the Great Emperor of the Demon Realm, could not maintain his composure, and his expression changed unpredictably.

"Why do you, a Cultivator from the Mortal Realm, possess the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique of the Great Sage Pingtian?" The Six-Eared Macaque asked in a low voice, his eyes flashing with a faint killing intent as he looked at Zhuge Xiang.

"A gift from a friend," Zhuge Xiang answered in response to the Six-Eared Macaque's question, not lying. Seeing the murderous intent flashing deep in the Six-Eared Macaque's eyes, Zhuge Xiang felt a sense of unease.

Before arriving in the Demon Realm, Zhuge Xiang hadn't realized this, but now Zhuge Xiang understood. Although the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique was merely an introductory Cultivation Technique practiced by the disciples of the Great Sage Pingtian, it was definitely not as simple as he had imagined. Otherwise, why would the Six-Eared Macaque have considered killing someone to silence them just because of the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique? Clearly, he was afraid that if this news got out, he would bring trouble upon himself.

"I must say, you are indeed a talent. With your mere cultivation at the Dharma Aspect Realm, you have actually managed to comprehend the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique to the Fourth Layer. If you hadn't handed over the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique, perhaps I would have recommended you to the Great Sage Pingtian. But now, I cannot let you live," the Six-Eared Macaque said, his eyes flashing with undisguised killing intent. As he spoke, he stood up from his Tiger-Skin Throne.

Following the Six-Eared Macaque's movements, the Black and White Monkeys in the Demon Palace also moved, blocking Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon's retreat.

Seeing that the Six-Eared Macaque was about to kill them, and with two other demonic monkeys of the Immortal-Demon level blocking their path, Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon's hearts sank. In this situation, a direct confrontation would definitely mean certain death.

The greater the crisis, the calmer Zhuge Xiang became. His mind raced, and he quickly organized the chaotic information in Zhuge Xiang mind. Then, a flash of Zhuge Xiang struck him, and he said to the Six-Eared Macaque, "Don't rush to attack. Even if I die, I should at least understand why. Isn't this Great Strength Bull Demon Technique an entry-level Cultivation Technique for the disciples of the Great Sage Pingtian? Why is your reaction so strong?"

"Beginner level?" Upon hearing Zhuge Xiang's words, the Six-Eared Macaque shook his head and said, "All the disciples under the Great Sage Pingtian can cultivate this Great Strength Bull Demon Technique. As you said, it is indeed only an introductory Cultivation Technique. However, only those who have cultivated the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique to the Third Layer or above can call themselves disciples of the Great Sage Pingtian. There are only a few dozen disciples under the Great Sage Pingtian who can achieve this."

"I see..." Zhuge Xiang suddenly understood.

The cultivation of the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique is indeed extremely difficult, but with each level of advancement, whether it is physical strength, defense, or even HP, there will be a several-fold increase. By the Third Layer, the physical strength has already far surpassed that of ordinary Great Accomplishment Stage Realm beings. Indeed, only with such an achievement can one become a disciple of the Great Sage Pingtian.

"The Great Strength Bull Demon Technique is a closely guarded secret of the Great Sage Pingtian. If its secret were to leak, it would definitely cause huge trouble. Therefore, I have no choice but to kill you to silence you." After explaining, the Six-Eared Macaque's killing intent was already brewing. The dark red staff in his hand erupted with terrifying Baleful Qi. This was clearly the Six-Eared Macaque's weapon, the Sky Pillar. (To be continued...)
