"It's asking for help from me?"
Ling Xiao was slightly taken aback. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
Just a day ago, Ling Xiao was still fighting to the death with this group of Long Armed Ape Kings. Ling Xiao had even snatched away their Immortality Peach Tree. Ling Xiao reckoned that the moment the Long Armed Ape Kings saw Ling Xiao, they would be incomparably enraged and tear Ling Xiao to pieces.
However, he did not expect the strange black fog in the Long Armed Ape King's body to erupt. The Ape King was desperate and sought help from Ling Xiao.
"Is this fellow trying to trick me?"
Ling Xiao's expression was a little strange. He stood on the mountain peak and did not descend immediately.
"Awoo …"
The strange black fog on the Long Armed Ape King's body was getting thicker. Ling Xiao could see the crimson red and bloodthirsty eyes of the Ape King mixed with an unyielding struggle.
Roar!
The Ape King roared and pounded his chest with both fists. The blood in his body boiled as he tried to break free from the corrosion of the strange black fog. However, the strange black fog was like a tarsal bone. It was like a black light that flowed slowly on the Ape King's body.
In the end, it surged towards the Ape King's head.
One could imagine that once the Ape King was completely engulfed by the strange black fog, its intelligence would be wiped out and it would turn into a monster that only knew how to kill.
"Forget it. You're lucky!"
Seeing the unyielding and stubborn look in the Ape King's eyes, Ling Xiao was slightly touched and sighed.
At this moment, he did not care if the Ape King would seek revenge. Ling Xiao decided to save the Ape King.
Swoosh!
Ling Xiao turned into a ray of golden light and swept to the foot of the mountain.
Rumble!
The space between Ling Xiao's eyebrows shone brightly. Strands of golden light swept across the sky like God Order Chains and rolled towards the strange black fog on the Ape King's body.
The strange black fog felt threatened and boiled instantly. It rose from the Ape King's body and spread towards the Ape King's head at an even faster speed.
"You're courting death!"
Ling Xiao's eyes turned cold. He slammed his palm down and the Heaven Devouring Secret Skill was fully activated. A golden vortex fell on the Ape King's head and devoured the strange black fog.
Buzz!
The God Order Chains intertwined and wrapped around the Ape King. Faint runes were imprinted on the Ape King's body and they were constantly devouring the strange black fog.
At the same time, although Ling Xiao's Heaven Devouring Secret Skill could not devour the strange black fog as fast as the Wordless Heavenly Book, it was able to prevent the black fog's spread.
Rumble!
The strange black fog on the ape king's body seemed to be boiling. It charged left and right, but in the end, it was unable to break through the blockade of the god sequence chains.
In the end, the strange black fog was completely devoured. The ape king gradually regained its calm, and its eyes became clear again.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Ling Xiao's figure dashed out several hundred feet and stood on top of the mountain peak again. He looked at the Long Armed Ape King warily.
Roar!
The Long Armed Ape King roared at Ling Xiao, but its voice was very low and slow. Its cold eyes softened as it looked at Ling Xiao with gratitude. It scratched its head, looking very simple and honest.
Then, to Ling Xiao's surprise, the huge body of the ape king actually knelt down and kowtowed to Ling Xiao a few times.
This time, Ling Xiao felt a little embarrassed. He seemed to have been a little too vigilant. The Ape King really knew how to repay kindness.
"Brother Ape, please get up!"
Ling Xiao laughed bitterly and slowly walked down from the mountain peak.
It seemed like after saving the Ape King, not only did he resolve the Ape King's hatred for him, he even gained the Ape King's favor.
"Don't go near this mountain in the future!
Take your monkeys and leave this place! "
Ling Xiao looked at the Ape King and smiled, then prepared to leave.
"Roar …"
The Ape King stared at Ling Xiao with its bell-like eyes. At this moment, its ferocious aura had disappeared, and it looked very simple and honest. It picked up the huge metal rod and followed behind Ling Xiao.
"Why are you following me?
Hurry up and find your monkey grandchildren! "
Ling Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He realized that the Ape King was sticking to him. Wherever he went, the Ape King would follow.
"Roar …"
The Ape King pointed at itself and then at Ling Xiao. It made a few gestures in the air, and its eyes were filled with anticipation.
"You mean, you want to follow me?" Ling Xiao was slightly taken aback.
The Ape King nodded repeatedly. Its face was filled with excitement and emotion. It then raised the huge metal rod in its hand.
"You mean, you want to help me beat up the bad guys?"
Ling Xiao's expression became even more strange. This big guy looked very ferocious before, but after gaining its favor, Ling Xiao realized that the Long Armed Ape King was very simple and honest. Its spiritual intelligence was only equivalent to a seven or eight-year-old human child.
"Maybe it's because of the influence of the strange black fog!"
Ling Xiao thought for a moment. Usually, a Peak Rank Six demonic beast's spiritual intelligence was no different from a normal person. Perhaps the Ape King's spiritual intelligence was slower because of the influence of the strange black fog.
"Alright, follow me from now on. I'll bring you out of the Eight Barren Secret Region!"
Ling Xiao smiled and jumped up. He patted the Ape King's furry head. The Ape King nodded repeatedly. Its eyes were filled with excitement.
This was a Peak Rank Six demonic beast, and an Archaic Variant. If the bloodline of the Long Armed Ape King was fully activated, the potential it could unleash would be terrifying.
Ling Xiao thought that the Changsen Sect was still too weak. If he could activate the bloodline of the Long Armed Ape King and help it break through to Rank Seven Demon King, it would be a good choice to be the guardian of the Changsen Sect.
"Roar, roar …"
The Long Armed Ape King pointed at itself and then pointed into the distance. It gestured with its arms and then looked at Ling Xiao with anticipation and pleading.
"You mean, you want to bring your monkeys out with you?"
Ling Xiao was slightly taken aback. He could understand the meaning of the Ape King's cryptic words.
There were more than a hundred Long Armed Apes. If so many Long Armed Apes were to leave the Eight Barren Secret Region, it would definitely increase the strength of the Changsen Sect. However, it would inevitably attract the attention of others.
This was not in line with Ling Xiao's temperament of making a fortune silently.
The Longevity Ring is still unable to store living creatures. However, I have the ancient painting left behind by Jin Se. The ancient painting has its own dimension and the Void Boundary Stone. If it could be combined with the Longevity Ring, not only would it increase the quality of the Longevity Ring, it might even restore the ability of the Longevity Ring to store living creatures!
Ling Xiao thought to himself.
Now that he had the mental strength of a Peerless Alchemy Master, and by chance, he had condensed the embryonic form of the Martial Way Primordial Spirit. Perhaps he could try to combine the Longevity Ring and the ancient painting.
"Brother Ape, go and gather your monkey grandchildren!
Wait for me at the foot of the mountain. I'll think of a way to bring all of you out! "
Ling Xiao looked at the Ape King and smiled.
