Fierce Tiger Devours Ape! One Sword Cut! Who is the expert?

Boom! Boom!

Ye Yinyue, a Silver Badge expert from the Demon Suppressing Division, let out a sharp cry, followed by a falling sword energy.

"Hmph, human girl! If I can't beat you, can't I run away??"

Seeing this, the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit snorted coldly.

Its eyes widened, and a surge of blood energy instantly covered its entire body!

Just a moment before the sword energy landed, the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit's massive body transformed into a wisp of blood energy and flew straight out, disappearing in an instant!!

Its speed was so great that it only left a trace of crimson in the space.

Screech~~

"It escaped??"

Upon seeing this, Lin Guanhuo, Chen Jianxing, and others who had been hiding in a corner scurried out, looking in the direction the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit had fled.

"Don't worry, with the restrictions of our Demon Suppressing Division, it can't escape." Ye Yinyue appeared unhurried, sheathed her sword, and then led Lin Guanhuo and the others in pursuit.

At this very moment.

Somewhere in the Abandoned Infant Forest.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit, practicing some unknown divine ability or technique, had its body surging with blood. It stepped on branches and stumps, covering a hundred meters in a single stride!

It was here one second, there the next, and then gone again.

Under this frantic escape, the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit soon reached the outskirts of the Abandoned Infant Forest, seeing the exit ahead.

Once it left this place and hid deep within the forest, it wouldn't fear the people from the Demon Suppressing Division catching up.

'The secret technique Old Ancestor taught me is truly overbearing! Who below the Bone Forging Realm can stop me??'

'Old Ancestor bestowed this secret technique upon me, helping me escape death every time. If I achieve the Dao, I must repay Old Ancestor well!'

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit looked back, sensing the aura of the Demon Suppressing Division and the others still far behind it.

'Hahahaha! You brats from the Demon Suppressing Division!'

'Monkey Lord is going to slip away!'

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit let out a laugh, its slender arms grabbing a branch and swinging forward.

Whoosh, whoosh~~

Its massive body flew out, about to break through the forest.

But then...

Buzz!

On a tree ahead, something was stuck. It seemed to have detected demonic energy.

That thing suddenly erupted with golden light.

Buzz!

After one golden light flared, other places in the forest seemed to sense it, and golden lights began to light up one after another!

Buzz!

Buzz!

In just a moment, those golden lights transformed into golden walls, trapping the entire Abandoned Infant Forest within, making escape impossible.

"Ouch!!"

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit crashed into the golden light, a powerful rebound force flinging it back. It then fell heavily to the ground, its head bleeding.

"This is... a restriction??"

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit lay on the ground, watching the golden energy fill the surroundings. It clutched its bleeding head and gritted its teeth, saying, "This damned girl!! She actually invited such a master to draw talismans to deal with me?"

Just as the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit finished speaking.

Not far behind it, several auras rapidly approached!

Leading them was Ye Yinyue, who had been pursuing it!

"Beast, you harm and kill people! You specialize in eating the brains of infants, utterly vile! Where do you think you can escape today!"

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit: "..."

Its head was bleeding, and it lay there, paralyzed, without replying, only a strange silence.

Ye Yinyue held her long sword, looking coldly at the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit, and approached step by step.

Chen Jianxing, behind her, glanced at Lin Guanhuo, drew his sword, and whispered, "Brother Lin, what are you waiting for? Draw your sword! Free merit, why not take it!"

"This beast is severely injured by the restriction. If we follow Lady Ye and deliver a couple of blows, our records can be updated again. We can write that we once killed an Eighth-Rank Great Demon!"

After speaking, Chen Jianxing and several other registered Division Servants with the same idea took out their weapons and approached step by step.

After all, opportunities to deliver the finishing blow to an Eighth-Rank Great Demon were rare.

Afterward, everyone present began to beat the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit. Ye Yinyue, who was leading, struck down fiercely with her sword first!

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit let out a grunt. Its hide was thick and tough, and it actually managed to endure the blow.

"Still tough, huh?" Ye Yinyue sneered. Since the restriction was in place, she didn't have to worry about the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit escaping.

She raised her hand and slashed down fiercely with her sword again!!

At the same time, Chen Jianxing and the others also attacked with their swords and sabers, slashing horizontally and vertically!

In just a moment, the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit's skin was ripped and its flesh was torn.

"Is it dead??"

After beating the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit for a long time, Chen Jianxing cautiously approached to check.

He discovered that the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit was still groaning lowly.

"Reporting, sir, this beast is still alive! It's faking its death!!" Chen Jianxing, fearing a final counterattack from the dying creature, quickly retreated a few steps and said to Ye Yinyue.

"Keep attacking!" Upon hearing this, Ye Yinyue unleashed several more powerful sword strikes!

"Is it dead yet?"

"Not dead..."

"Keep attacking!"

"Is it dead yet?"

"Still not dead!"

"Is it dead yet?"

"...Reporting, sir... this guy is still breathing!"

This relentless onslaught continued for about half an hour.

It caused a few drops of sweat to fall from Ye Yinyue's forehead.

She hadn't expected the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit to be so resilient!

With the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit still alive, the members of the Demon Suppressing Division were starting to get tired.

They couldn't help but sigh that demons and monsters were truly tough. If it were a human, their ashes would have been scattered and their relics shattered long ago.

Looking again, the golden light emanating from the restriction had now gradually dimmed, showing signs of dissipating.

Ye Yinyue's beautiful brows furrowed. Sensing the danger, she exclaimed, "This beast is trying to endure until the restriction lifts! Everyone, follow me! Use all your strength! Slay this beast!!"

This time, Ye Yinyue raised her long sword, channeling her inner energy to its limit, concentrating it within the blade!

No, if I take this blow head-on, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it!

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit had curled up there like a turtle, originally planning to endure the attack with its tough hide, then feign death and find a way to escape.

But then...

Damn it!!

Who knew these bastards from the Demon Suppressing Division would desecrate its corpse, determined to grind it into dust!

It seems I have no choice but to use that thing!

Back when I left Ape Mountain, the Old Ancestor bestowed upon me another treasure... I was reluctant to part with it, but today I have no choice!!

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit muttered something unintelligible.

"Ugh!!"

It gagged, and finally, from its stomach, it spat out a blood clot no bigger than a palm.

Then!

"Heaven above... Earth below... Ancestor's might, manifest quickly!!"

Then, the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit fiercely crushed the blood clot!

Swish!!

The blood clot burst, instantly transforming into a pool of blood that surged into the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit's body from all directions!!

Huh?

From behind a distant tree, Lin Guanhuo, who had been contemplating how to snatch the kill, suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

He urgently shouted, "Brother Chen, retreat quickly!"

"What??"

Chen Jianxing instinctively took a few steps back upon hearing this!

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit, which had been lying on the ground, severely wounded, suddenly rose, gathering all its blood energy!

Boom!!

In an instant, it grew to six or seven meters tall, its body massive, having doubled in size compared to before!!

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit suddenly leaped up, stomping its large foot forward with immense force. The stomp was like a mountain crashing down, incredibly fast.

It gave no one a chance to react!

"Not good!" Ye Yinyue, a Martial Master, sensed this and cried out, retreating several steps.

However, she was still injured by the residual force, spitting blood.

The others were not so lucky.

"No!! Save me!! Sir!! Save me!"

"Ah!!"

Several accompanying members of the Demon Suppressing Division present couldn't dodge in time and were directly stomped into bloody meat paste by the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit.

The stomp was powerful. With a splat, an eyeball was squeezed out and landed at Chen Jianxing's feet.

"Ah!! Screw you!! Screw you!"

Chen Jianxing, seeing this, felt a lingering fear and cursed twice.

If Lin Guanhuo hadn't warned him earlier, he would probably be a pile of mush right now too!!

"What... what's wrong with this beast??"

Ye Yinyue coughed up blood, unable to comprehend how this beast, which had been on its last legs moments ago, could suddenly unleash such immense power.

'What should I do?'

'Run?'

Ye Yinyue gripped her long sword, her beautiful eyes fixed on the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit as it walked towards her step by step.

She could run, but if she fled now, her sister would find out...

She gritted her teeth.

'I'd rather die here than have my sister think I'm a deserter!'

The thought of her sister's cold, disappointed gaze...

It made her feel worse than death.

Watching the Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit approach step by step.

Ye Yinyue closed her eyes, ready to face certain death.

However...

Just then.

Whoosh!!

A gust of wind, from no discernible source, slowly blew in.

The wind rose, then came again, swirling fallen leaves and dust before departing.

Following it was an incredibly powerful saber energy!!

The saber energy flew close to the ground, faster than sound!!

Roar!!

As the saber energy slashed, a faint tiger's roar echoed throughout the land!!

As if a fierce tiger!

Fierce Tiger Devouring Ape!!

"What??"

The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit, which had intended to stomp Ye Yinyue to death, frowned. Before it could react!

Screech!!

The saber cut across its neck, severing its entire head. The Blood-Eyed Ape Spirit's massive body stiffened.

Clang.

Then, it crashed to the ground.
