Thunder Kui stared at the Titan Giant Ape and slowly stood up.

At that moment, it was as if mountains rose from the water, and lightning crackled around the one-legged bull-headed monster, blasting the surrounding water and mud into a frenzy.

The dark clouds above Thunder Marsh were drawn by the imposing presence of the two colossal creatures facing off, and began to swirl around them. The constantly flashing silver lightning snakes coiled around Thunder Kui, protecting him like a well-organized army awaiting their general's command.

Half of the swamp was bathed in a silvery-white light.

"Roar!"

After the Titan Giant Ape saw Thunder Kui appear, it let out a low growl. Although Meng Chen still couldn't understand it, the tone seemed to be negotiating.

After hearing the Titan Giant Ape's roar, Thunder Kui turned the giant bull's head around, its lantern-like eyes staring at Meng Chen.

Then it turned around and mooed at the Titan Giant Ape again. Even Meng Chen, a human, could see and hear the displeasure in Thunder Kui's eyes and voice.

After hearing the moo, the Titan Giant Ape responded with a low growl, full of threat.

The two enormous creatures, separated by the swamp, engaged in a conversation that Meng Chen couldn't understand at all.

As time passed, Thunder Kui's moo seemed less forceful, and the Titan Giant Ape's roar gradually lost its initial threatening tone, becoming more like a human's "we're good buddies."

Then, Thunder Kui sank back to the bottom of the swamp, as if everything had been settled.

The Titan Giant Ape seemed surprised that Thunder Kui was so easy to talk to this time, and immediately pounded its chest with both fists to show its strength.

"You... you've reached an agreement?"

Meng Chen asked the Titan Giant Ape, quite unexpectedly.

The Titan Giant Ape gave a vivid, exaggerated smirk, its face saying, "What else can I do?"

Immediately afterwards, it took the lead and walked forward, waving to signal Meng Chen to follow.

Just kidding, who am I?

King of the Forest, Titan Giant Ape!

That's my brother, the 100,000-year-old Sky Azure Bull Python; that's my sister, the 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Enchanting Rabbit; and these little things...

Just then, something unexpected happened!

Thunder Kui's attitude suddenly changed. Underwater, its two horns suddenly rose, its giant eyes filled with a violent expression and the light of lightning!

"Whoosh!"

The murky surface of the swamp suddenly exploded, and what splashed out was also white water.

What caused the water to explode was Thunder Kui's mountain-like body!

"Moo!"

Thunder Kui suddenly opened his mouth and let out a roar that was more ferocious than any of his previous moos. The sound waves were so powerful that they were visible to the naked eye, and the splashing water seemed to pulsate in response.

Meng Chen felt that his Soul Power circulation was momentarily disrupted by the sound waves!

At the same time, Thunder Kui exerted force with its huge single hoof, and its massive body, with this leap, charged towards the Titan Giant Ape like a pushed mountain, at such a speed that the air itself exploded.

"Roar!"

The speed was too fast; the Titan Giant Ape only had time to let out a scream, probably meaning "Holy crap!"

Damn, so he was just pretending to submit and tricking me. Shameless!

The Titan Giant Ape was enraged.

They've come to deceive me, to ambush my 100,000-year-old Tai Tan.

Rumble!

With a thunderous roar, Thunder Kui slammed into the Titan Giant Ape. Meng Chen hurriedly fled, and he could even see a white shockwave spreading outwards!

With a deafening roar, the Titan Giant Ape was slammed into Thunder Kui and sent flying thousands of meters away, carving a trench more than ten meters deep into the ground and kicking up clouds of dust.

"Roar!"

The Titan Giant Ape roared, but fortunately, it managed to grab Lei Kui's two horns as Thunder Kui charged at it. Otherwise, even with the defensive capabilities of a 100,000-year-old Titan Giant Ape, it would have been in serious trouble with such power.

After all, this Thunder Kui has a cultivation level of over 90,000 years.

The Titan Giant Ape was a little embarrassed and angry. It had just told the human that there was no problem, but this stubborn Thunder Kui started fighting right away.

This isn't a fight; it's clearly slapping me in the face!

The Titan Giant Ape exerted all its strength, veins bulging beneath its fur, and forcefully grabbed the Thunder Kui's horns and lifted it up!

"Swish, swish, swish!"

After lifting Thunder Kui, the Titan Giant Ape started spinning him around like a giant windmill, making him spin several times in place, like a tornado, even picking up some leaves and pieces of wood.

Then it tossed Thunder Kui, sending him flying in a perfect parabola, a distance of ten thousand meters!

"Roar!"

After throwing Thunder Kui out, the Titan Giant Ape roared again.

It just couldn't understand it; all it was was borrowed a piece of land to plant a vine.

Moreover, this vine is also beneficial to Thunder Kui. When the Thunder Hell Vine attracts Heavenly Thunder, Thunder Kui can use the lightning elemental power within it to cultivate. How wonderful is that!

However, in the early stages, most of the lightning power in the entire Thunder Marsh Swamp might have to be used to nourish this Thunder Hell Vine.

That's really short-sighted.

The Titan Giant Ape berated Thunder Kui while its hands moved with undiminished speed.

It leaped out the moment Thunder Kui was thrown into the air, its massive and heavy body displaying an agility disproportionate to its size, making it look like a hairy black mountain leaping into the air, creating a visually striking effect.

As the Titan Giant Ape landed, it slammed its fists down hard on Thunder Kui's enormous head.

What a devastating blow that was!

Thunder Kui, who only had one leg, had just been thrown to the ground by the Titan Giant Ape and hadn't even had time to stand up when he was hit by this heavy blow, leaving him dizzy and disoriented.

"..."

Meng Chen summoned the Thunder Hell Vine Martial Soul, with five Soul Ring— two purple and three black—pulling around him. Then he shouted, "Hey, big guy, throw it back! I'll fight it with you!"

The Titan Giant Ape responded quickly, throwing a mountain of flesh back at it.

"Holy crap!"

Meng Chen immediately dodged to avoid being hit.

With a loud bang, Thunder Kui actually landed on his feet this time, leaving a footprint eight or nine meters deep in the ground.

"Moo!"

This blow clearly hurt, Thunder Kui became even more ferocious after feeling the pain.

Its massive body leaped up again, using its remaining leg to kick fiercely at the Titan Giant Ape that was chasing after it.

The thick hoof, coated with a layer of Dark Blue lightning, kicked precisely at the Titan Giant Ape's abdomen.

The Titan Giant Ape crossed its arms in front of it, blocking the kick.

Its body slid backward under the impact, but Thunder Kui's kick was not only powerful, but also unleashed a terrifying burst of lightning, which even made the Titan Giant Ape's fur stand on end.

"Roar!"

The Titan Giant Ape screamed in agony.

Seeing this, Meng Chen's first Soul Ring shone brightly, Thunder Hell Vine snaked up and Entanglement Thunder Kui's body, releasing electricity.

Thunder Kui seemed unaffected; even the passive effect that blocked Soul Power couldn't harm him.

Grass!

As expected of Soul Beast with over 90,000 years of history.

With a determined heart, Meng Chen activated the Thunder Hell Vine to absorb the thunderous power from Thunder Kui's body.

However, just by having this thought, Meng Chen was almost burst apart by the abundant power of thunder!

Looking at the lightning power on Thunder Kui's body, it hardly seemed to have decreased at all.
