Sunset Forest, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu's Deadly Crisis!

"First Spirit Ability, Entangle." Tang San's Voice Rang Out. Purple Demon Eye activated. Facing a six-thousand-year Spirit Beast, the Shrek's Seven Devils needed to kill it quickly.

Otherwise, if the battle dragged on, they would be surrounded by Spirit Beasts.

On the other side, facing the siege of ten Spirit Beasts, Zhao Wuji, Liu Erlong, Flender, and Grandmaster managed to hold off these ten Spirit Beasts, among which were Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts.

"Nine Treasures are named: First, Strength."

"Second, Speed."

"Third, Spirit." Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda emitted Nine-Colored Light, cooperating with her Divided Control to directly assist everyone separately.

"First Spirit Ability, Waist Bow."

"First Spirit Ability, Hell Stab."

"First Spirit Ability, Phoenix Fire Line!"

"Second Spirit Ability, White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"

"First Spirit Ability, I have a Big Sausage."

Among the Shrek's Seven Devils, except for Ye Chen, they simultaneously launched the first round of attacks on the Giant Gorilla!

This was a probing attack by the Shrek's Seven Devils.

Tang San would control the opponent first. During this brief interval, Ning Rongrong and Oscar would provide support to everyone, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun would attack from range, followed by Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's close-quarters combat.

This was the usual combat method of the Shrek's Seven Devils. If the first probe was ineffective, then Dai Mubai and Tang San would both join the battle.

If everyone fell into crisis, then Ye Chen would make a move. The Shrek's Seven Devils fought this way against any opponent, their coordination already extremely tacit.

Some people asked why they didn't directly activate their strongest Spirit Abilities. It was because the Spirit Power consumption was huge, and this Giant Gorilla was not the target of the Shrek's Seven Devils.

The Giant Gorilla was not suitable for Tang San, Ning Rongrong, or Zhu Zhuqing.

In battle, one naturally had to use the least Spirit Power to create the greatest value. This combined attack by the Shrek's Seven Devils was enough to heavily injure the Giant Gorilla.

But what no one expected was, The Giant Gorilla's Strength surpassed everyone's imagination!

When Tang San's Blue Silver Grass controlled the Giant Gorilla, it only held on for less than a second before it was directly broken free.

Fortunately, that one second was enough for Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun's ranged attacks. The two of them launched their attacks, and Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing engaged in close combat, their coordination seamless.

But an accident still happened.

The attacks of everyone landed on the Giant Gorilla, but they had no effect whatsoever.

The giant ape roared and reached out to grab Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.

"Xiao Wu, come back!" Tang San said as he activated his Blue Silver Grass.

"Zhuqing, retreat, quickly." Ye Chen's expression turned cold, and all four of his spirit rings lit up.

Tang San and Ye Chen had both judged the giant ape's strength.

The giant ape's strength was definitely not ordinary!

Fortunately, Xiao Wu had teleportation and dodged the giant ape's attack. But Xiao Wu was unwilling to admit defeat and wanted to attack the giant ape up close.

Zhu Zhuqing was also unwilling to admit defeat. Both of them thought they had found an excellent opportunity and attacked simultaneously.

At this moment, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was too late to grab Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had misjudged the situation.

"Third Spirit Ability, Absolute Domain!"

Ye Chen's third spirit ring lit up.

When the crowd's attacks lost their effect, according to normal combat methods, the Shrek Seven Monsters should have unleashed their True Strength and launched a second round of attacks.

Only when they couldn't resolve the situation would Ye Chen make a move.

But now, Ye Chen... had made a move ahead of time!

This meant that Ye Chen judged that Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were already in the most dangerous moment.

When the Absolute Domain descended, immense pressure surged towards the giant ape.

The giant ape's movements slowed down, and Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing discovered that the giant ape had predicted their positions in advance.

Zhu Zhuqing was even faster than Xiao Wu. She had already prepared her Second Spirit Ability. She discovered in horror that if not for Ye Chen's Absolute Domain, she would have been directly captured by the giant ape, and her fate would have been severe injury on the spot!

Zhu Zhuqing being captured might have been understandable, but what happened next made everyone feel a sense of shock.

The giant ape's massive palm was aimed directly at Xiao Wu's teleportation destination!

Even Ye Chen and Tang San couldn't predict where Xiao Wu would teleport to, yet this giant ape could accurately pinpoint Xiao Wu's location.

Ye Chen's Absolute Domain had saved Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.

In close combat, within moments, a huge gap in strength had been revealed.

Even with Ning Rongrong's support and the speed of Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, they couldn't escape the giant ape's clutches.

"Xiao San." Ye Chen's voice rang out, tinged with urgency.

"Understood. First Spirit Ability, Entangle." Tang San once again used his Blue Silver Grass to try and pull Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing back.

It would take a long time to describe in words, but in the actual battle, there wasn't enough time to say anything, not even a second passed.

Ye Chen and Tang San had already completed a coordinated move.

"Third Spirit Ability, Heal... Convert to Shield." Ye Chen once again used the healing effect of his Third Spirit Ability. The Nine Spirits Begonia continued the abilities of the Nine Heart Begonia, meaning all nine Spirit Abilities could be used for healing or converted into shields.

Ye Chen's strongest shield currently was the shield from his Fourth Spirit Ability, or the shield after activating the Nine Spirits True Body, both of which were incredibly powerful.

But now, Ye Chen didn't have time to activate the shield from his Fourth Spirit Ability and could only barely use the shield from his Third Spirit Ability to block the Giant Ape.

The shield from his Third Spirit Ability transformed into a red light, surrounding Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.

Ye Chen's Third Spirit Ability, Absolute Domain, could only briefly obstruct the Giant Ape.

However, it was still too late.

The power in the Giant Ape's palm instantly crushed Ye Chen's Third Spirit Ability shield!

Seeing Ye Chen's shield shatter, this scene shocked Ye Chen and everyone else present.

How terrifying were the shield effects of Ye Chen?

Could a six-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast really do this?

What made everyone even more astonished was that Ye Chen was spitting blood.

The shield broke, transforming into a stream of energy that directly attacked Ye Chen.

This had never happened before; the shield broke, and Ye Chen suffered a backlash.

Zhu Zhuqing turned back to look at Ye Chen. With just a glance, her clear eyes understood everything.

Zhu Zhuqing's Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone activated!

Her speed instantly increased by thirty percent, her figure turning into afterimages. She flew forward, hugged Xiao Wu, and then rapidly retreated.

Zhu Zhuqing was fleeing for her life with almost all her strength.

But the next moment, something terrifying happened to Zhu Zhuqing.

It felt as if a hand behind her had locked onto her.

It was that Giant Ape.

Not only that, the Giant Ape's body was expanding, continuously expanding!

As it chased Zhu Zhuqing, its body had already exceeded more than triple its original size!

The current giant ape is a full ten meters tall!

It roared, its speed increasing once more, faster than Zhu Zhuqing's.

Fortunately, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass managed to grab Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu in time, pulling the two back.

Shrek's Seven Devils had not expected the events unfolding before them.

"Fatty, attack!"

"Fourth Spirit Ability, White Tiger Meteor Shower!" Dai Mubai stood up and directly activated his Fourth Spirit Ability against the giant ape.

"Fourth Spirit Ability, Phoenix Sky Roar Strike!" Ma Hongjun simultaneously launched an attack on the giant ape.

The next moment, Everyone was stunned in place.

This giant ape's Strength far exceeded everyone's imagination.

Its true Strength erupted.

Tang San and Ye Chen both felt a chill run down their spines.

Tang San's Purple Demon Eye had already reached the Mustard Seed level. When the giant ape erupted, Tang San finally saw its true Strength clearly.

Ye Chen also understood.

"No, retreat quickly, retreat into the poison formation."

"This giant ape is not a Six Thousand Year Spirit Beast, but a Sixty Thousand Year Spirit Beast!" Ye Chen looked at everyone, his expression tense.

A Sixty Thousand Year Spirit Beast, it was truly a Sixty Thousand Year Spirit Beast.

The so-called Six Thousand Year Spirit Beasts were used to disguise their Strength, first pretending to be weak before attacking human Spirit Masters, thereby being able to devour them.

This was a true demonic Spirit Beast, a terrifying giant ape Spirit Beast.

Shrek's Seven Devils retreated rapidly.

"A Sixty Thousand Year Spirit Beast? Would there be a Sixty Thousand Year Spirit Beast in Sunset Forest? And a giant ape, I've never seen a Spirit Beast like this before," Tang San said.

Fortunately, Shrek's Seven Devils retreated into the poison formation together.

No one could have imagined that they would attract such a terrifying Spirit Beast!

Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks had already turned pale.

When facing a sixty-thousand-year Soul Beast, she felt immense pressure, as if she were about to be torn apart.

If not for the Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone Ye Chen gave her, she might not have been able to escape this time.

Grandmaster, Flender, Zhao Wuji, and Liu Erlong had all repelled ten Soul Beasts and arrived beside Shrek's Seven Devils.

"How is this possible? How can there be a sixty-thousand-year Soul Beast here? Didn't they say that even ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts are rare in Sunset Forest?" Flender asked.

"Anything is possible, just like there are Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python in the center of Star Dou Great Forest. Those are beings above one hundred thousand years old. What we need to worry about is whether the poison array can block this giant ape."

"If the giant ape can break through the poison array, will it allow other Soul Beasts to enter as well? There are many, many Soul Beasts surrounding us now." Grandmaster's gaze was grave.

If it were a sixty-thousand-year Soul Beast, Grandmaster, Zhao Wuji, Flender, and Liu Erlong could have a chance to block it if they dealt with it with all their might.

But if other Soul Beasts also entered and besieged everyone, then no one here could escape this poison array!

"Is everyone uninjured? Brothers, it looks like we'll have to spend the night here. There are too many Soul Beasts outside, and there's a sixty-thousand-year giant ape." Ye Chen smiled slightly and shook his head.

"Brother, are you alright? I saw you get injured just now. It was all my fault for saving Xiao Wu and me. I should have listened to you and not gone up." Zhu Zhuqing stood beside Ye Chen, her beautiful eyes filled with apology and a hint of sadness.

She felt so useless, only dragging others down and even causing Ye Chen to get injured because of her.

"I'm sorry," Zhu Zhuqing said softly. "If we really can't escape, I'm willing to go alone to lure the Soul Beasts away so that everyone else can leave here."

Ye Chen grabbed Zhu Zhuqing's arm, looking at her with a serious gaze. "It's not your fault, it has nothing to do with you. It was my misjudgment, and I didn't protect you well. Don't say such foolish things about luring Soul Beasts away alone again. I have a biological sister, but she is she, and you are you. You are my sister, and I said I would protect you. How could I let you lure Soul Beasts away alone?"

Just as Tang San was about to apologize, Ye Chen looked at Tang San again.

"In this battle, everyone is fine. We Shrek's Seven Devils are one, aren't we?"

"When we encounter problems, we must solve them together. What happened today was too sudden. Even I can't do much in a short period, let alone you two girls?"

"No matter what happens, we will walk out of Sunset Forest alive this time. If the poison array can't stop the giant ape, then the first one to stand in front of you will be me." Ye Chen looked at Shrek's Everyone.

"Little Chen, don't you consider me, Dai Mubai, a brother? If we're going to fight, let's fight together. You're always the one at the front. I, as the leader, can't always be protected by you." Dai Mubai patted Ye Chen's shoulder.

"Of course, Brother Chen. I still have the Godly Zhuge Crossbow and other Hidden Weapons. If we have to face these Soul Beasts, we're not without a fight. Everyone, prepare to use your Hidden Weapons first. Xiao Ao, quickly make some sausages to help everyone recover their spirit power."

"If the situation becomes critical, we can still use Xiao Ao's Flying Mushroom Sausage for a collective escape. Even if it's a bit messy, it can guarantee everyone's safety. Next time, I'll have Old Monster come here, and I'll see what that sixty-thousand-year giant ape can do." Tang San's eyes were cold. Xiao Wu almost getting into trouble had touched Tang San's bottom line.

Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Tang San had not yet obtained their fourth spirit ring. Shrek's Seven Devils were all in a huge crisis.

Ye Chen sat on the ground, beginning to heal himself and recover his spirit power. For some reason, Ye Chen had a sense of unease.

After Ye Chen healed himself, he looked at Ning Rongrong and said, "Rongrong, if a battle really breaks out later, you must ensure your own safety. It's best to hide beside Xiao San. Standing beside me might be dangerous, but I will protect you too."

Tang San was a Control System Soul Master. Ye Chen believed that with Tang San there, Ning Rongrong wouldn't be in much danger.

"Brother, what about you?" Ning Rongrong looked at Ye Chen.

"I won't get hurt, believe me. I promised Uncle Ning I wouldn't let you suffer any harm." Ye Chen smiled and ruffled Ning Rongrong's head.

Zhu Zhuqing, standing beside (her), saw this scene with her beautiful eyes and felt a little envious. (She) merely revealed a very beautiful smile and said nothing.

"Children, it's time to get up. Prepare to fight for your lives."

"A sixty thousand year spirit beast, the Giant Ape, has broken through the poison formation," Flender said, lowering his body. When the Giant Ape broke through the formation, it not only meant the poison formation was breached, but also that countless spirit beasts could enter the poison formation and attack everyone!

The worst-case scenario had happened.

"Wuji, your mission is to protect the children. Remember, protect the children at all costs. Not a single one of them can get hurt," Flender looked at Zhao Wuji.

As the Dean of Shrek Academy, Flender immediately prepared his combat strategy. He turned to look at Grandmaster and Liu Erlong and said, "Let's go. The Golden Iron Triangle will have to fight together once more."

"A sixty thousand year spirit beast, do you all have confidence?" Flender smiled, his face filled with a deathly resolve.

Grandmaster and Liu Erlong knew that the Giant Ape's strength was not inferior to that of an ordinary sixty thousand year spirit beast. Once the Giant Ape unleashed its power, its strength would even surpass that of a sixty thousand year spirit beast!

Even the three of them working together might not be a match for the Giant Ape, which was why... Flender said they would fight for their lives.

In the battle to come, there would not only be the Giant Ape, but also an endless stream of spirit beasts.

Such a massive commotion had drawn most of the spirit beasts in the Sunset Forest here.

"Brothers, prepare for a fight to the death." Dai Mubai didn't say anything else. (He) stood at the forefront of Shrek's Seven Devils.

"Xiao Ao, if things really get out of control later, prepare the Flying Mushroom Sausages. None of us can afford to have an accident today," Tang San said, his gaze serious.

"Everyone, prepare to attack!" Ye Chen spoke. Behind the Giant Ape, two Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts and over a dozen Five Thousand Year Spirit Beasts appeared.

Everyone from Shrek was surrounded by the army of spirit beasts!

This battle would be the most severe one.

Ye Chen's gaze turned cold, filled with killing intent.

BOOM!!!

The Giant Ape roared, and its body directly stepped into the poison formation.

This meant the poison formation was broken!

The Giant Ape's attack was coming!
