Chapter 235: Grand Unity Golden Immortal Level Yao Beast

"Wait, something's not right."

After arriving at the northern end of the Dao Ran Secret Realm, Wu Xianni sensed something and his expression changed slightly. Before his consciousness could even react, his body moved first. Just a moment after Wu Xianni left his original spot, a gigantic fist descended from the clouds, shattering an area spanning tens of thousands of light-years.

As for Wu Xianni, he narrowly avoided being caught in the blast by dodging in time.

Once he came to a stop, Wu Xianni looked towards the being that had attacked. The instant he saw it, his expression turned grave. The creature's body was covered in a mix of gold and red fur, and even the faintest wisp of its aura leaking out was enough to make a True Immortal stage Cultivator tremble with fear.

"This is… a Golden Bloodthirsty Ape! And it's at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Initial Stage level!"

Wu Xianni's expression darkened. Dealing with a Grand Unity Golden Immortal was difficult enough, let alone a Golden Bloodthirsty Ape, which was considered powerful even among the vast majority of Yao Beasts.

"But I can't back down. For the sake of slaying the Devouring Devil Emperor… And if a Golden Bloodthirsty Ape is guarding this place, it's likely one of the Legacy sites of either the Heavenly Immortal Immortal Emperor or the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor."

"With my current preparations, combined with my strength and combat experience, it's not impossible for me to fight this Golden Bloodthirsty Ape!"

As Wu Xianni steeled his resolve, the opposing Golden Bloodthirsty Ape leaped forward with immense force in the next second, charging to kill him.

Boom!

"Damn it, why is there a Dark Nether Profound Spirit here! And it's at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Initial Stage level too."

Wu Mowu was frantically dodging the spikes raining from the sky. Each one possessed the power to kill a Golden Immortal Peak level Cultivator. If struck even once, Wu Mowu couldn't be sure she could withstand it.

The situation was similar to Wu Xianni's. When Wu Mowu arrived at a great mountain in the southern end of the Dao Ran Secret Realm, she was ambushed by a suddenly appearing Dark Nether Profound Spirit. Fortunately, Wu Mowu's own strength was not lacking, which was why she had managed to hold out this long.

"But continuing like this is no solution. The most urgent matter is deciding whether to retreat or keep fighting. In my current state, going all out, I might barely be able to take down the Dark Nether Profound Spirit, but even if I kill it, there's no guarantee I'll gain any benefit."

"However, the Dark Nether Profound Spirit only attacked me when I approached this area. Perhaps this is a Legacy site of the Heavenly Immortal Immortal Emperor or the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor? Forget it, I'll take the risk. If I can obtain the Legacy of either the Heavenly Immortal Immortal Emperor or the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor, then it'll be worth it!"

Having thought this, Wu Mowu hesitated no longer and chose to attack the Dark Nether Profound Spirit.

Unlike Wu Xianni's situation, the Dark Nether Profound Spirit existed in a spiritual form. Ordinary physical attacks couldn't touch it, so Wu Mowu had to employ Divine Soul-based attacks to inflict damage on it.

Boom!

Wu Xianni's sword landed on the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape's body, but it only left a faint bloodstain. Before Wu Xianni could even react, the wound had already healed.

Roar!

Being struck by Wu Xianni's sword made the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape even more frenzied, but it simply couldn't land a hit on Wu Xianni.

"Although I have the help of Divine Speed Pills and Divine Speed Talismans, allowing my speed to rival that of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal Middle Stage Cultivator, the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape's defense is terrifyingly formidable. My longsword cannot inflict effective damage on it."

"But I don't have any other weapons right now. If I want to slay this Golden Bloodthirsty Ape, then there's only that one method."

Wu Xianni thought with an extremely grave expression. His sword was a Third-grade Immortal Sword, while the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal Initial Stage existence. Naturally, a mere Third-grade Immortal Sword couldn't injure it.

But this didn't mean Wu Xianni had no other methods. All living beings possessed their own weaknesses; it was just a matter of how many. When they were mere mortals, weaknesses were plentiful. As their strength increased, their weaknesses became fewer.

Although the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal level existence, that didn't mean it had no weaknesses.

Coincidentally, in his previous life, Wu Xianni had studied Golden Bloodthirsty Apes and naturally knew where the weaknesses of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal level one lay.

While dodging the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape's attacks, Wu Xianni observed its body, thinking to himself.

"A Grand Unity Golden Immortal level Golden Bloodthirsty Ape has a total of five weak points: the soles of its feet, its navel, its eyes, its temples, and the centers of its palms."

"Among these, the soles and palms have the lowest probability of being hit due to constant movement. The eyes and temples also carry extremely high risk; if I get close, the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape would likely react and block instantly."

"That leaves only the navel. Given the length of the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape's arms, if I'm fast enough, I can strike its navel before it reacts and then finish it off."

"However, considering the Realm of this Golden Bloodthirsty Ape, even a weak point would require the power of at least a Golden Immortal Peak level to pierce its navel."

"Got it!"

Mulling over strategies in his mind, Wu Xianni soon had a plan. His eyes lit up, and in the next second, he stopped evading and charged straight at the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape.

Seeing the human ant before it not only failing to flee but daring to charge at it, the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape also flared with rage. It let out an angry roar from its mouth as it surged forward to kill Wu Xianni.

Soon, Wu Xianni closed in on the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape. Seeing this, the ape swung its terrifying fist towards Wu Xianni. But in the next instant, Wu Xianni simply sidestepped, dodging the attack.

By the time the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape realized what happened, a deep blue talisman had appeared in Wu Xianni's hand.

"Ten-Thousand Jun Thunder, heed my command, Annihilate!"

With Wu Xianni's loud shout, the talisman in his hand instantly transformed into a bolt of deep blue lightning that erupted from his palm, shooting straight towards the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape's navel.

The terrifying lightning bolt struck the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape's navel directly. With its weak point hit, the ape's aura instantly weakened, but it did not fall. Instead, it became even more frenzied.

Seeing this, Wu Xianni didn't hesitate for a moment. He charged at the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape once more, thrusting his sword directly into its navel. The blade plunged deep into the ape's body.

Instantly, the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape's aura began to fade with this strike. Despite its immense unwillingness, it could only collapse with a look of fierce resentment in its eyes.

With the Golden Bloodthirsty Ape slain, Wu Xianni finally let out a sigh of relief and slumped to the ground.

This battle had nearly exhausted all of his strength. It could be said to be the most difficult fight since his Rebirth.
