The energy contained in the two Energy Crystals only made the Black Armor Giant Ape grow a little taller, equivalent to the energy contained in the flesh and blood of a Second Order Ferocious Beast.
Of course, this little bit of energy increase was only secondary; it was more concerned with the changes in its body.
Because it couldn't see the golden纹 on its back, the Black Armor Giant Ape just lowered its head and touched its throat, feeling a bit itchy as if something was growing there.
However, because the energy contained in the crystal was not enough, the changes there had not 'developed' yet.
Thoughtfully, the Black Armor Giant Ape moved its mind and summoned its attribute page, then saw a new note appear in the Demonization column.
Deification: 4/100 [Energy from crystals, which can purify genes after absorption, causing the body to undergo Deification. The higher the degree of Deification, the greater the probability of awakening innate abilities]
"Now I can confirm that I can absorb energy resources from both the Gods and Sky Demon systems." The corners of the Black Armor Giant Ape's mouth rose, revealing a hideous smile.
Although it didn't yet know if the energy from Witch Marks and Sky Fire could be absorbed, even so, with the extra Demonization and Deification buffs, its strength would surpass others of the same rank.
And its next goal was simple: to hunt more Ferocious Beasts to start its second evolution.
At the same time, it could also take on some tasks in the real world to earn points, exchange for Energy Crystals and Demon Power Crystals to speed up the Demonization and Deification progress.
When the time came to cooperate with the second evolution and transformation, the Black Armor Giant Ape's strength would become incredibly terrifying.
As for whether his exchanging Energy Crystals and Demon Power Crystals would arouse suspicion, it was also easy to explain, just saying that he could absorb these energies to improve his physique.
Anyway, on the personal information Jiang Ruochan registered for him, there was also a note about a suspected Behemoth Era inheritance.
It was perfect to use this reason to cover up the phenomenon of his physique increasing every day. A rare dual-era inheritor, it was normal to have some special abilities.
Moreover, he was only absorbing the energy of the crystals and had not awakened the awakening abilities of the Gods and Sky Demon systems, so it wasn't too exaggerated.
And the Giant Ape's luck seemed to be good today. It hadn't gone far before it made a discovery, slowing down when it sensed a faint aura of danger ahead.
In the black mist-filled underground, a hundred-meter-high broken statue stood, with a monster resembling a Black Bear, fifteen meters long, lying below.
The monster was covered in black fur, with sharp claws, and four ten-meter-long red octopus tentacles growing on its back, the surfaces of the tentacles covered in red scales.
The mist obscured vision, concealing auras and sound vibrations, so when the Black Armor Giant Ape discovered the monster, the Black Bear monster also saw it.
Looking at the Black Armor Giant Ape walking out of the black mist, the dark red eyes of the Black Bear monster instantly revealed ferocity.
Roar! The roar shook the air, forming a shockwave centered on the Black Bear monster, sweeping across a range of more than ten meters, the four tentacles on its back wriggling like pythons, looking hideous and evil.
Bang bang bang!! The Black Armor Giant Ape hammered its chest with both hands, emitting the rumble of war drums.
This monster's aura was very strong, feeling no less than the Fourth Order late-stage Stone Demon from last night, but at this time, the Black Armor Giant Ape was not the one that had just evolved.
Roar! A roar filled with anger exploded, the Black Armor Giant Ape's eyes were covered in blood, its muscles swelled, and instantly an extremely violent force erupted.
At the same time, the Giant Ape's body surface scales were covered in black light, exuding an indestructible meaning.
In the instant that the two major talents were fully activated, the gravel under the Black Armor Giant Ape's feet exploded, and under the powerful reaction force, its huge body shot out like a small mountain.
The Black Bear monster, not expecting the Black Armor Giant Ape to strike first, roared, its huge body standing upright.
Boom boom!! The huge black fist and bear paw intersected, erupting with the roar of a thousand tons of heavy objects colliding.
The triple increase in strength in the state of anger made the already powerful Black Armor Giant Beast even more terrifying, directly shaking open the Black Bear monster's claws, its thick shoulders and back slamming heavily into it.
Boom! The two giant beasts crashed into the statue together, the statue, like a small mountain, shook, large pieces of rock shattered, and billowing smoke rose.
Amidst the dust and roars, the Black Bear monster, struck against the 'wall', howled, its four tentacles behind it writhing like pythons, entangling the Black Armor Giant Ape.
Squeak squeak squeak!!
The suction cups on the tentacles entangling the Giant Ape churned, attempting to gnaw at its flesh, but they couldn't breach the scale armor defense covered in black light, the friction between the sharp teeth and scales producing an ear-piercing sound.
Roar! The Black Armor Giant Ape roared in fury, the muscles in its arms swelling, and with a forceful tremor, it directly shook off the tentacles coiling around its body.
In the instant of shaking off the tentacles, the Giant Ape clenched its right fist, covered in golden World-Shaking Overlord Power, and punched the Black Bear monster's face as it lunged to bite.
Bang! The Black Bear monster's cheek collapsed, flesh and blood splattering, its massive head and body crashing against the stone statue once more with a miserable shriek.
The World-Shaking Overlord Power possessed the characteristic of shattering defenses, coupled with the Black Armor Giant Ape's domineering strength, directly breaking through the Black Bear monster's defenses.
But at this moment, the four tentacles behind the Black Bear swept over again. The Black Armor Giant Ape abruptly raised its upper body, dodging the attack, then opened its maw wide and bit down on one of the tentacles.
At the same time, its arms reached out, grabbing the two tentacles attacking from the left and right.
Roar! Ignoring the constriction of the tentacle coiling around its waist, the Black Armor Giant Ape clenched its fists around the tentacles in its grasp, and furiously hammered them towards the Black Bear monster's head.
Bang bang bang!!
The fists covered in World-Shaking Overlord Power were indestructible, and with each punch, the Black Bear monster's skin split open and its bones cracked.
Each terrifying heavy punch was like a siege hammer, containing terrifying power. After only a dozen punches, the Black Bear monster lost its ability to resist.
As the Black Bear monster's head was almost completely shattered, and dark red blood sprayed like a fountain, dyeing the Giant Ape's entire body red, the Giant Ape, filled with rage, slowly stopped.
Huff huff!! The Black Armor Giant Ape panted heavily, the severed tentacle bitten off in its mouth falling to the ground, while the two tentacles it had originally grasped in its hands had long been broken into two pieces.
Looking at the Black Bear monster before it, which only had a breath left, the Black Armor Giant Ape was still not at ease.
Roar! A violent roar shook the black mist, the Black Armor Giant Ape raised its large foot high, and stomped down fiercely.
Crack crack!! After stomping on the monster's limb joints a dozen times in a row, breaking both its claws and legs, the Black Armor Giant Ape finally felt completely relieved.
Huff! Under the gaze of the Black Bear monster's blood-red single eye, the Black Armor Giant Ape, which had just brutally slaughtered it, rapidly shrunk in size, transforming into a tiny figure in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Hou, his dense black hair moving without wind and his upper body wrapped in bandages, held the Demonic Blade and leaped a few times to arrive in front of the Black Bear monster's massive head.
Black light flickered on the Demonic Blade, forming a huge blade aura three meters long, which suddenly plunged into the Black Bear's eye.
Pfft! Roar! With a half-hearted roar, the Black Bear monster died completely, and an invisible force gathered on its body, transforming into dozens of strands of dense black Demonic Qi.
These strands of Demonic Qi circled Jiang Hou once before merging into his left arm, and black lines spread along his arm at a speed visible to the naked eye, eventually covering his left shoulder.
As six new Hell Runes condensed, the total amount of Demonic Qi in Jiang Hou's body instantly soared by 120 points.
This harvest and increase surprised Jiang Hou somewhat.
But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed normal. After all, Jiang Hou had essentially used his 'Second Order initial stage' strength to Defying Slash a Fourth Order late stage monster, so the soul power he obtained was naturally far greater than that from a Third Order Stone Demon.
