"You stupid monkey, who are you trying to scare by shouting so loudly!" Seeing the Snow Demon Sky Ape roaring and showing off, Zi Yan didn't tolerate it and mocked it.

Zi Yan 'Zi Yan taunts enraged the Snow Demon Sky Ape, which was already enraged by her, and it leaped towards Lin Ming and Zi Yan.

As the Snow Demon Sky Ape raced forward, two plumes of smoke billowed from its enormous, bowl-shaped nostrils. From its gaping maw, it uttered a human-like voice. "Little purple-haired brat, this time I'll tear you apart alive!"

The Snow Demon Sky Ape charged forward with a provocative aura, its true form being the Ancient Void Dragon Zi Yan, a top-tier Magical Beasts. Deep down, she had no concept of being afraid of other Magical Beasts.

So when the Snow Demon Sky Ape attacked, Zi Yan took a few steps forward, then swung her tiny fist, which was pitifully small compared to the Snow Demon Sky Ape, and smashed it towards the Snow Demon Sky Ape.

The Snow Demon Sky Ape was not to be outdone, and swung its Iron Fist, which was bigger than a casserole dish, wanting to smash the little guy it was facing with one punch.

"Bang!"

A tremendous crash erupted from the two fists, which were of vastly different sizes.

Standing at the back, Lin Ming was already terrified by the aftershocks of the impact.

If such an attack were to hit Lin Ming knew the outcome. Even if he miraculously survived, he would definitely be severely injured.

At this moment, the disproportionately large and small figures that had collided were still struggling against each other, neither willing to back down even a step.

"Roar!"

Seeing that Zi Yan had blocked his way, the Snow Demon Sky Ape roared and increased its strength once again.

The Snow Demon Sky Ape roared at Zi Yan, spewing a mouthful of fishy stench at Zi Yan, which disgusted Zi Yan. Zi Yan retorted fiercely, "Stupid monkey, how dare you yell at your grandma like that? You want to die!"

After Zi Yan finished speaking, Zi Yan whole body shone with purple light, and a huge force burst forth from her small fist, sending the three- or four-zhang-tall Snow Demon Sky Ape flying backward with a single punch.

"Boom"

The Snow Demon Sky Ape flew out and fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

After blasting the Snow Demon Sky Ape away, Zi Yan clapped her hands and came to Lin Ming's side, saying, "Lin Ming, this giant monkey has Berserk Bloodline within it, which can greatly enhance its strength."

"The first two times, I was forced to leave because this big monkey activated its Berserk Bloodline, greatly increasing its strength."

"Even I am no match for this giant monkey that has activated its Berserk Bloodline, so Lin Ming, you'd better stay far away when you see it become much stronger."

Zi Yan's words were a reminder to Lin Ming.

After all, Lin Ming is now Zi Yan's benefactor. If she doesn't remind Lin Ming, and Lin Ming gets injured during the Snow Demon Sky Ape's rampage and can no longer make delicious Medicinal Pill for her, Zi Yan will definitely cry herself to death in the bathroom.

The Medicinal Pill refined by Lin Ming were sweet and sour, perfectly suited to Zi Yan's taste. The unrefined pills, on the other hand, were unbearably bitter and terribly unpalatable.

When these two are compared, Medicinal Pill are like delicious food, while unprocessed medicinal herbs are like pig swill.

Having grown accustomed to delicious meals, Zi Yan would find it very difficult to swallow raw medicinal herbs that taste like pork belly.

Having knowledge of the original plot, Lin Ming naturally knew that the Snow Demon Sky Ape possessed Berserk Bloodline.

Furthermore, Lin Ming also knew that although the Snow Demon Sky Ape could greatly increase its strength after using the Berserk Bloodline, this increase in strength would not last long.

After the Berserk Bloodline subsides, the Snow Demon Sky Ape will enter a period of weakness.

The best opportunity for Lin Ming to obtain the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk was during the Snow Demon Sky Ape's period of weakness.

After Zi Yan finished speaking, Lin Ming said to Zi Yan, "I read about the Snow Demon Sky Ape in a book. When the Snow Demon Sky Ape uses the Berserk Bloodline to enhance its cultivation, it will experience a period of weakness. So, Zi Yan, after the Snow Demon Sky Ape uses the Berserk Bloodline, we should retreat quickly. Once its Berserk Bloodline effect wears off and it enters its weakened state, we can then properly deal with it."

"Okay, sure!" Zi Yan nodded in response.

Just as Lin Ming, her benefactor, had said, Zi Yan had no doubts whatsoever. In Zi Yan's eyes, Lin Ming, who could Pill Refining, was practically a cultured man.

When an illiterate person met a literate person, the literate person said, "I read about this situation in a book, and it said what should be done..."

Would this illiterate person doubt the words of the educated person? That's exactly what Zi Yan is doing now.

While Lin Ming was talking to Zi Yan, the dust kicked up by the Snow Demon Sky Ape after it crashed to the ground dissipated. The Snow Demon Sky Ape, which had fallen to the ground, also stood up again.

However, it was clear that the Snow Demon Sky Ape's aura had become much stronger, and its huge eyes were completely bloodshot.

Noticing the Snow Demon Sky Ape's unusual behavior, Lin Ming and Zi Yan exchanged a glance, then simultaneously unfurled their wings and flew into the sky.

In no time, Lin Ming and Zi Yan's figures looked smaller than a fist.

Neither Lin Ming nor Zi Yan expected that the Snow Demon Sky Ape would unleash its full power and use its Berserk Bloodline after only a brief clash with Zi Yan.

However, Lin Ming's plan was to make the Snow Demon Sky Ape use its Berserk Bloodline. And now, no matter what the Snow Demon Sky Ape was thinking, as long as the result was what Lin Ming wanted, that was all that mattered.

So, facing the Snow Demon Sky Ape unleashing its full power, why not leave now? Are we just going to stay and wait to get beaten up?

Putting aside Lin Ming's small stature, even Zi Yan, in the berserk state of the Snow Demon Sky Ape, wouldn't dare to confront it head-on.

Actually, the most frustrated one has to be the Snow Demon Sky Ape.

The Snow Demon Sky Ape had just unleashed its ultimate attack when its combat object vanished without a trace. Having lost its target, the small valley became the Snow Demon Sky Ape's outlet for its immense power after activating its Berserk Bloodline.

So much so that Lin Ming and Zi Yan, who were high in the sky and at such a great distance, could hear the roars and the dust rising from the valley below.

"The berserk Snow Demon Sky Ape is probably going to vent its anger for a while. Let's find a place to land first! We can meet it again tonight when it's weakened," Lin Ming Snow Demon Sky Ape to Zi Yan.

"Okay, let's go there!" Zi Yan said, pointing to a mountain peak.

"Alright, let's go then!" After saying that, Lin Ming flapped his wings and his figure transformed into a cluster of purple light, flying towards the mountain peak that Zi Yan pointed to.

Upon seeing Lin Ming set off, Zi Yan flapped her Dou Qi Wings and followed closely behind Lin Ming, flying towards the mountain peak.

After landing on the mountain peak, Lin Ming and Zi Yan set up a grill and had a barbecue on the mountaintop.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, the sky changed from day to night.

The bright moonlight shone down, illuminating two dark figures flying in the sky.

Folding their wings, Lin Ming and Zi Yan returned to the small valley.

At this moment, the valley was filled with huge rocks, presumably caused by the Snow Demon Sky Ape venting its anger on the valley that afternoon.

"Zi Yan, I'm leaving this place to you." Lin Ming said after arriving at the valley.

Even though the Snow Demon Sky Ape is currently weakened, it's still not something Lin Ming can withstand. Therefore, Zi Yan should handle the direct confrontation. If given the opportunity, Lin Ming wouldn't mind launching a sneak attack on the Snow Demon Sky Ape.

"Now it's my turn! This time I'm going to avenge the previous two times!" Zi Yan said indignantly.

From Zi Yan's resentful words, Lin Ming could sense that Zi Yan had suffered considerable losses at the hands of the Snow Demon Sky Ape, who had activated its Berserk Bloodline, on two previous occasions, and that's why she was now able to retaliate, hence her resentful words.

After Zi Yan finished speaking, she squeezed her hands together, making a "crackling" sound.

Then, Lin Ming saw Zi Yan bend over and lift a boulder larger than herself from the ground. With a forceful Zi Yan, the boulder flew into a cave deep in the valley.

The sound of the falling boulder echoed through the valley.

"Roar~"

Shortly after the sound of the boulder was heard, a roar echoed from the cave.

Although the roar was still loud, the Snow Demon Sky Ape's current roar seemed to lack vigor compared to the one it made in the afternoon.

After a while, the enormous figure of the Snow Demon Sky Ape emerged from the cave.

At this moment, Lin Ming could clearly feel that the Snow Demon Sky Ape's aura had weakened considerably.

"You silly monkey, now it's my turn to teach you a lesson." Zi Yan had also noticed the weakening of the Snow Demon Sky Ape's aura, so after Zi Yan finished speaking, she took the lead and rushed towards the Snow Demon Sky Ape.

Upon seeing Zi Yan attacking him, the Snow Demon Sky Ape, despite being in a weakened state, felt a surge of anger that had been building up since he activated his Berserk Bloodline that afternoon, which had previously been directed at the rocks. This anger overwhelmed him upon seeing the Snow Demon Sky Ape, causing him to disregard his own weakness and throw a punch at Zi Yan as she attacked.

Even without activating its Berserk Bloodline, the Snow Demon Sky Ape was no match for Zi Yan. Now, in its weakened state, it was even weaker than when its Berserk Bloodline was inactive.

So, in this clash, the Snow Demon Sky Ape was forced back by Zi Yan. Seeing that her ordinary punch had sent the Snow Demon Sky Ape flying, Zi Yan became even more excited.

For Zi Yan, this was the time for revenge! So Zi Yan swung her little fist and smashed it towards the Snow Demon Sky Ape.

The fight between Zi Yan and the Snow Demon Sky Ape continued. Lin Ming seized the opportunity when the Snow Demon Sky Ape was knocked away from the valley entrance, moved swiftly, and arrived at the cave entrance. Then, Lin Ming entered the cave.

Upon entering the cave, besides being completely dark, the air was filled with a foul stench, just like the smell emanating from the Snow Demon Sky Ape.

With a thought, Lin Ming conjured a ball of flame in his hand. Using the light of the flame, Lin Ming advanced deeper into the cave.
