However, this is not a permanent elimination; the Great Brahma Prajna Scepter, Initial-Grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, can only achieve a suppression effect.
As for how long he could suppress the ferocity of the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape, Lin Heng couldn't say for sure.
However, before the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape unleash their ferocity, an even stronger Buddhist Sect magic weapon must be found to suppress them.
Lin Heng's choice to keep the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape by his side was tantamount to carrying a ticking time bomb. Once the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape's ferocity erupted, it would definitely be a huge problem.
However, compared to the danger, the benefits that the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape could bring to Lin Heng far outweighed the risks, making it worthwhile for Lin Heng to take the chance.
After nearly an hour of being infused with Buddhist power, a sliver of clarity finally returned to the eyes of the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape.
This relieved Lin Heng.
After all, the Nether Ancestor Puppet was already showing signs of being unable to hold on any longer.
The ferocious beasts attracted by the smell of blood were all blocked by the Nether Ancestor Puppet, which allowed Lin Heng to concentrate on helping the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape suppress their malevolent energy.
Although the Nether Ancestor Puppet had reached the Nirvana Realm, it was still struggling to cope with hundreds of ferocious beasts.
As the bloodshot color faded and the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape's eyes regained clarity, Lin Heng spoke in a deep voice, "It seems we can have a proper talk now."
The Five-Spirit Fierce Ape watched Lin Heng warily, but did not speak, seemingly harboring considerable aversion and resentment towards Lin Heng.
Lin Heng paused for a moment before continuing, "Now you only have two choices. First, pledge allegiance to me, and of course, I can bring you sufficient benefits; second, I will kill you right here and now, and I will leave no potential threat behind."
Hearing about a choice that concerned his life, the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape finally broke its silence. "Human, you only took advantage of me being severely injured after my battle with the Purple Creek Flood Dragon. You think you can make me loyal to you? Impossible."
Lin Heng's eyes narrowed, a murderous glint flashing within them. Seeing this Five-Spirit Fierce Ape quickly spoke again, "However, since you saved my life before, I can agree to follow you temporarily. If you can grow stronger than me within a thousand years, then I can promise to be loyal to you. But if you can't, after a thousand years, you must give me my freedom, how about it?"
Lin Heng's lips curled into a slight smile, and he nodded, tacitly agreeing to the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape's suggestion.
Can it grow stronger than the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape within a thousand years?
hehe!
Lin Heng never imagined it would take a thousand years.
In less than ten years, Lin Heng was confident that he could make the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape follow him wholeheartedly.
At that time, even if Lin Heng chased it away, it probably wouldn't have wanted to.
After the negotiations concluded, Lin Heng received the answer he wanted. He then took out a million-year-old spirit herb and tossed it to the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape: "Quickly recover your strength; this place is not safe to stay any longer."
Without a word, the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape caught the spirit herb Lin Heng threw to it and immediately popped it into its mouth.
While the million-year-old spiritual herbs may only have a limited effect on improving the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape's cultivation, they are more than enough to restore its depleted energy.
In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape's previously weak aura gradually recovered and became stronger. Although it was still a little short of its peak, it no longer hindered its movement in this Chaotic Sand Sea.
Seeing that the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape had regained its strength, Lin Heng frowned and said, "By the way, can you shrink a bit?"
Lin Heng didn't particularly like the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape, which stood a thousand meters tall. You had to fly to talk to it.
As soon as Lin Heng finished speaking, a burst of fire suddenly appeared on the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape's body. Then, to Lin Heng's astonishment, the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape's body rapidly shrank. In just a few breaths, the thousand-meter-tall giant ape shrunk to about the size of an ordinary person.
After regaining its normal intelligence, the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape shrank its size and even changed its appearance.
His black bodysuit perfectly showcased his explosive muscles, while his slightly fierce features exuded an untamed attitude.
Lin Heng nodded; this looked much better.
"By the way, do you have a name?"
Lin Heng suddenly spoke up and asked.
We can't keep calling him the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape forever; if we keep doing that, it'll be hard to avoid attracting attention.
When asked for his name, the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape shook his head. In this Chaotic Sand Sea, names were unnecessary. Everyone devoured each other upon meeting, so who would be polite enough to ask your name first?
Lin Heng thought for a moment, then gave the Five-Spirit Fierce Ape a name and asked, "As the saying goes, 'monkey, monkey,' how about the surname Sun? Besides, you are ape, so how about Sun Yuan?"
The Five-Spirit Fierce Ape didn't give the name much thought. He muttered " Sun Yuan " a few times and, finding it easy to pronounce, readily agreed.
After subduing Sun Yuan, Lin Heng immediately took over the Nether Ancestor Puppet, and then took Sun Yuan away from this blood-soaked area as quickly as possible.
The man and the ape flew forward for nearly ten thousand kilometers. Sun Yuan glanced around and laughed, "This is Purple Dragon Hill, the territory of the Purple Creek Flood Dragon. If I weren't going to leave with you, it wouldn't be bad to make this my territory."
Sun Yuan's casual remark caught Lin Heng's eye.
Since this is the territory of the Nirvana Realm Purple Creek Flood Dragon, doesn't that mean that it's very likely that the Purple Creek Flood Dragon fought with Human Race powerhouses here before, and even perished here?
Thinking of this, Lin Heng immediately tried to sign in.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully checking in at Purple Dragon Hill in the Chaotic Sand Sea. You have received the system reward Heaven and Earth Primordial Staff."
The Heaven and Earth Primordial Staff High-Grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, Innate Spirit Treasure born in the Ninefold Heaven.
Upon seeing the description of the four large characters "Innate Spirit Treasure," Lin Heng's heart skipped a beat.
Starting with the Chaos Spirit Treasure level, all spiritual treasures are divided into two categories: innate and acquired.
Acquired Spirit Treasure are artificially crafted, and their level is fixed at the time of their creation.
However, Innate Spirit Treasure are different. These spiritual treasures, which are born from the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, can also have their grade improved later.
Just like Innate Spirit Treasure of the Initial-Grade Chaos Spirit Treasure category, by absorbing the power of chaos, they can gradually upgrade their grade to High-Grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, and even absorb higher-level energy to achieve further evolution.
In other words, this Heaven and Earth Primordial Staff is an offensive Innate Spirit Treasure that can grow. As for how far it can grow in the future, Lin Heng cannot guess, after all, this is the first time he has obtained Innate Spirit Treasure.
" Sun Yuan, this weapon is for you."
Without hesitation, Lin Heng gave the Heaven and Earth Primordial Staff to Sun Yuan.
With his own strength, coupled with this High-Grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, he would be even more powerful.
As for whether Sun Yuan would betray him after obtaining the weapon, Lin Heng was naturally not worried about that.
Since he dared to take him in, Lin Heng was naturally confident that he could control him.
