Titan Giant Ape: Couldn't I Just Sacrifice Myself?
"Xu Yuan, I need you to help Sister Xiao Wu with her cultivation!"
Xiao Wu's training results tonight were not ideal.
Dark clouds gathered and churned above the Star Dou Great Forest.
All life in the world suddenly froze, all birds fell silent, plants bowed their heads, and the whole world held its breath.
Deep within the clouds, a low, heavy rumble of thunder rolled faintly, pressing down heavily on the hearts of all beings.
Deep purple lightning surged wildly in the clouds like a dragon, its purple light almost illuminating the heavens and earth.
A torrential downpour fell on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.
The power of the bright moonlight was abruptly blocked by the dark clouds covering the sky.
Without the blessing of the Moonlight's power, Xiao Wu's cultivation speed plummeted.
So, Xiao Wu thought of her exclusive cultivation cheat device Xu Yuan!
After the two use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they will fuse into a completely new body.
This is equivalent to Xiao Wu borrowing Xu Yuan's Quasi-Soul King strength to cultivate.
"You haven't found your third Soul Ring yet."
"No matter how hard you cultivate, your Soul Power won't increase much."
Xu Yuan held a map in his hand.
It was drawn using the Radiant Sacred Dragon last time.
The map marks the locations where various Soul Beast inhabit.
"It's okay, Sister Xiao Wu isn't afraid of getting tired!" Xiao Wu clenched her fist.
"Is it possible that I also need to rest?" Xu Yuan said.
"You can rest! Let Sister Xiao Wu take the lead in the Martial Soul Fusion Skill!"
Xiao Wu blinked her watery eyes, her gaze full of anticipation.
She had long wanted to experience the Martial Soul Fusion Skill firsthand.
"Well... you have to promise not to run around."
Although Xu Yuan could take control of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill at any time, he couldn't keep an eye on Xiao Wu all the time.
"No problem! Sister Xiao Wu swears!"
Xiao Wu held up three fingers, "If Sister Xiao Wu does anything reckless..."
Rumble!
A terrifying thunderclap shook the mountainside, and dust fell in a flurry.
The atmosphere inside the cave was rather somber.
"So I'll let you die from being struck by lightning?"
"Pah! Don't say such unlucky things! If Sister Xiao Wu breaks her vow, she'll never get to eat carrots again!"
Xiao Wu licked her lips; she was getting tired of eating carrots every day.
If she accidentally breaks her vow, it'll be a good opportunity to try something different.
I've heard that white radishes are sweet, juicy, crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, with a hint of mild spiciness.
Xiao Wu couldn't help but smack her lips.
But when she thought about Xu Yuan saying that Gangzi's Martial Soul Luo Sanpao, was made from this kind of radish, she lost her appetite.
Of course, she was serious this time and only wanted to cultivate.
"Alright..." Xu Yuan did not refuse Xiao Wu's suggestion.
After all, Xiao Wu had to share half of her cultivation achievements with him.
"Speaking of which, has it rained in the Star Dou Great Forest these past few months?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.
She remembered that the heavy rains in the Star Dou Great Forest should be delayed by several more months.
I'm not sure!
"However, I don't think it's likely natural weather."
"The location of the thunder seemed to be constantly shifting."
Xu Yuan used the method of sound localization to determine that the location of the lightning strike was constantly moving.
"Could it be...?"
Xiao Wu thought of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast undergoing its tribulation, but could Soul Beast run around freely during its tribulation?
Normally, Soul Beast undergoing tribulation would be nearly killed by heavenly lightning. Even if it possesses lightning attributes, it shouldn't be able to withstand it head-on, right?
"Who cares? Let's just focus on our cultivation."
"If the rain doesn't stop by tomorrow morning, we'll evacuate temporarily to avoid any unexpected situations."
Xu Yuan put away the map and said to Xiao Wu.
"That... that's fine too..." Xiao Wu nodded.
Then the two interlocked their fingers, and a silvery-white light bloomed, revealing a stunningly beautiful figure in the cave.
Xiao Wu's consciousness dominates the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
Xu Yuan, on the other hand, focused on studying the rudimentary Soul Core he had seen two days prior.
And so, time slipped away, little by little.
Above the clouds, another Full Moon illuminates the Starry Sky.
Unfortunately, the Star Dou Great Forest was shrouded in dark clouds, obscuring the moonlight.
Just as Xiao Wu was focusing on her cultivation, the surrounding mountains began to tremble more violently.
"Huh, what's going on?"
Xiao Wu suddenly opened her eyes and walked outside the cave.
What came into view were two terrifying Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
"Er Ming!"
Xiao Wu couldn't help but gasp in surprise when she saw the Titan Giant Ape.
The Titan Giant Ape, which once dominated the Star Dou Great Forest, has long lost all its domineering majesty Forest King.
Its towering body, over twenty meters tall, staggered and ran wildly, each step causing the earth to sink deep and the rock layers to crack.
What terrified Xiao Wu the most were the wounds on Er Ming's body—grotesque and horrifying wounds, imbued with an extremely evil aura.
A dark tiger shadow darted through the forest Gui Mei, its blood-red eyes filled with boiling killing intent.
First, he was struck by the Dragon God Claw, damaging both of his wings. Then, he was Tribulation Lightning, leaving him unable to repair his injuries.
Even so, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger still held its own against the combined might of the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python.
For some unknown reason, the Star Dou Ferocious Beast, led by Di Tian, disappeared again, leaving no trace.
"Delay, we must delay!"
"My brother said there's no chance of winning if we fight head-on."
"The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is at its last gasp; it cannot withstand the final Tribulation Lightning!"
The Titan Giant Ape gazed at the sky, where the final Tribulation Lightning was brewing, and it had locked onto the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger from afar.
As long as they can hold out until this Tribulation Lightning strikes, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger will be finished.
The Titan Giant Ape used its Gravity Domain to keep the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger from catching up with it.
Just as everything was about to end, a voice attracted it.
"Er Ming?"
That's a familiar way of addressing me!
The Titan Giant Ape's gaze fell upon a mountain peak ahead.
A tall, graceful woman with skin as white as thousand-year-old jade, dressed in a wide-sleeved, moon-white gauze dress, stood in mid-air.
Titan Giant Ape's first reaction was that it didn't recognize it.
However, Xu Yuan's First Soul Ring came from Xiao Wu, containing Xiao Wu's original aura of 100,000 years.
Through the aura of the Soul Ring and Xiao Wu's familiar address, Titan Giant Ape Er Ming instantly recognized Xiao Wu's identity.
"Sister Xiao Wu, get out of the way!"
The Titan Giant Ape's eyes widened suddenly. Although it didn't understand how Sister Xiao Wu had become like this and appeared here, it was completely panicked.
Xiao Wu wasn't in much better spirits than Er Ming.
"No way!"
"No, Sister Xiao Wu was just saying it casually!"
Xiao Wu thought of the casual remark she had made to Xu Yuan earlier.
Is Xu Yuan's luck really that bizarre?
Just then, the final bolt of deep purple lightning was fully formed, its destructive edge aimed directly at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
"Roar!"
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a deafening roar, as layers of gray light condensed, fusing the power of extreme evil with the power of wind and thunder.
Dark Demon Evil Thunder!
Faced with the threat of death, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger launched a fatal attack.
The Titan Giant Ape instinctively tried to dodge, but Sister Xiao Wu was right in front of it. If it dodged, then...
However, if I don't dodge, I will definitely be killed by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's Soul Skill.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger also possesses an evil Soul Skill, which allows it to quickly devour the corpses of Soul Beast to restore its strength.
If I were to be devoured by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, allowing it to successfully pass through the Tribulation Lightning, both Sister Xiao Wu and my elder brother would be doomed!
Thoughts flashed through the Titan Giant Ape's mind like lightning.
Avoiding the attack will kill Sister Xiao Wu, and not avoiding the attack will also kill Sister Xiao Wu.
At this critical moment, the Titan Giant Ape suddenly came up with a solution.
Why don't I just offer myself as a sacrifice to Sister Xiao Wu!
