Bang!
Thor's Hammer collided with the Giant Ape's fist. It was Tang Yu's strongest weapon, and the Giant Ape was sent flying by a single swing. When they clashed, the sound of bones cracking rang out.
The Giant Ape flew back and crashed through several trees before finally stopping. It clutched its hand in pain.
If Tang Yu hadn't been hiding Thor's Hammer earlier, Zhao Wuji might not even have been able to beat him. Thor's Hammer was simply that powerful. With it, and the immortality of the Undying Yama Physique, Tang Yu was practically using both an immortality cheat and an invincibility cheat.
Tang Yu walked up to the Giant Ape. It glared at him viciously, then turned and ran the next second.
The Giant Ape was a thirty-thousand-year Soul Beast and had a certain level of intelligence. It clearly couldn't win, so why stick around and get beaten to death?
Tang Yu watched the Giant Ape flee for its life and chuckled. "So you know how to run. Not bad, not bad. But do you think you can get away?"
As he spoke, Tang Yu's Soul Rings rose. His third Soul Skill: Thunderous Might.
The next second, Tang Yu transformed into lightning and shot after it. Thunderous Might didn't just let him fly; it also multiplied his speed.
The Giant Ape ran while glancing back. When it saw Tang Yu flying toward it as lightning, it was so terrified that it nearly stumbled and fell.
Tang Yu gripped Thor's Hammer and began to spin it. As he spun, he said, "Little monkey, it's time to end this."
With that, Tang Yu let go. Thor's Hammer shot forward and struck the Giant Ape in an instant, pinning it to the ground. Its weight was far too much for a thirty-thousand-year Soul Beast to withstand, and the Giant Ape was crushed to death.
A black Soul Ring coalesced above the Giant Ape's body. Tang Yu recalled Thor's Hammer, then sat down cross-legged and began absorbing the Soul Ring.
Half a day passed. Tang Yu opened his eyes and stood up. Looking at his fifth Soul Skill in his mind, he gave a wry smile. "Dad, you can't blame me this time. I found a strength-type Soul Beast."
It was already noon by the time Tang Yu finished absorbing the Soul Ring. He went to find some branches, planning to roast the ape. Once he had them, a flicker of lightning appeared in his hand. When it struck the branches, they caught fire.
Tang Yu didn't have any fire, so he had to use lightning to start one. As long as the lightning was weak enough, it wouldn't reduce the branches to ash. Once the fire was going, Tang Yu looked at the Giant Ape and thought for a moment. "Forget it. I've never heard of anyone eating ape. Better not tempt fate. I'll find a more normal one to eat."
Tang Yu immediately went nearby, grabbed a random thousand-year Soul Beast, killed it, skewered it on a thick branch, and began roasting it.
Only Tang Yu would dare start a fire in the Star Dou Forest. Even a Titled Douluo wouldn't dare light a fire and roast meat there alone. Once the flames got going, all the Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Forest that were over ten thousand years old would come charging over. Even a Titled Douluo would be done for.
The meat grew more and more fragrant as it roasted, and the fire burned higher and higher. Smoke billowed into the sky, nearly reaching beyond the Star Dou Forest. Angry howls rang out throughout the forest. Humans hunting Soul Beasts already enraged them, but now someone was eating a Soul Beast on their own turf. Who did he think he was looking down on?! They'd beat the crap out of him!
