King of Creation-Chapter 729 - 720: The True Long-Armed Fire Monkey King

Ye Zhen never expected that he would discover Yangh Yiguan here, the man who had duped everyone and entered the Ten Thousand Beast Hall Group ahead of them.

At this moment, Yangh Yiguan, much like the Hundred Poisons Master Lan Shuiqiao, was striking the sealed doors of the grand hall in front of him with great difficulty.

Seeing Yangh Yiguan’s state, Ye Zhen was overjoyed!

The grand hall in front of Yangh Yiguan was definitely the true treasure trove of the Beast Taming Sect!

Otherwise, Yangh Yiguan wouldn’t have remained here until his demise.

The grand hall in front of him was definitely extraordinary!

Not only because Yangh Yiguan appeared here, but the grandeur of the hall itself and the particularly thick sealing on its doors all indicated this much.

From the look of things, Yangh Yiguan had been battling here for quite some time, but the seal on the hall’s doors had only just been reduced by half.

Each of Yangh Yiguan’s full-force strikes only slightly diminished the luminous aura of the seals on the doors.

"Beast Spirit Hall?"

The plaque above the hall was inscribed with three ancient characters.

"I wonder what treasures are inside this Beast Spirit Hall?"

With a thought, Ye Zhen suddenly started weaving through the soil, and in the next instant, he appeared at the base of the Beast Spirit Hall, rapidly extending his Divine Sense.

First to sense, then to explore, Ye Zhen estimated that given the scale of the Beast Spirit Hall, there must be exceedingly powerful guardian puppets protecting it!

"Eh, my Divine Sense is being suppressed?"

Ye Zhen’s expression suddenly changed, as his Divine Sense was greatly suppressed when it neared the surface of the hall, unable to penetrate underground!

"As the defenses are so tight, this must be the main hall of the Ten Thousand Beast Hall Group," Ye Zhen rejoiced. Amidst his joy, he also felt concerned.

Typically, the guardian puppets of a grand hall were frightening beings like the Long-Armed Fire Monkey Kings, so how terrifying would the guardian puppets in the Beast Spirit Hall, the foundational emergence of the Beast Taming Sect, be?

Having tried around the grand hall, Ye Zhen found that wherever he was, his Divine Sense could not penetrate into the hall. Only when he left its vicinity could his Divine Sense function normally again.

"I can only take the risk!"

With a slight movement of his mind, Ye Zhen found a corner and slowly moved from the ground up, the first thing to emerge being a head.

With a slight shift of his body, the entire scene inside the grand hall instantly came into view.

The hall was tremendously spacious, about a hundred meters high, and covered an estimated area of two to three thousand meters, surrounded by glowing cabinets everywhere.

Many of these cabinets were enveloped in a layer of cyan light.

It must be a Guardian Formation or a Sealing Formation.

Only true treasures would employ individual Guardian Formations or Sealing Formations. At that moment, Ye Zhen felt an impulse of wild joy.

He had really found treasures.

The previous Alchemy Hall or Demon Pill Hall items were stored in Cold Jade Cases, without any targeted Guardian or Sealing Formations.

Yet in this hall, there were more than ten items protected by Guardian and Sealing Formations. Ye Zhen could be certain, these items were undoubtedly exceptional treasures.

However, Ye Zhen was not overwhelmed by his ecstatic joy.

While it was true that there were treasures here, there was also immense danger.

The huge figure in the corner, forged as if from steel, instinctively made Ye Zhen feel extremely threatened.

"Is it also a Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet guarding this place?"

The huge figure in the corner, resembling the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppets Ye Zhen had encountered before, was nearly identical, except that this puppet inside the Beast Spirit Hall was a bit larger.

In terms of size, it was almost half as big again.

Moreover, unlike the two previous Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppets which had almost no aura before awakening, this one, though still unawakened, emitted an extremely frightening aura!

Fortunately, it had not yet awakened!

As long as it wasn’t awakened, with Ye Zhen’s Earth Escape Divine Ability, it would probably only be a matter of time before he defeated it!

With a command to his Divine Sense, Ye Zhen instantly leaped out of the ground, tremendous Sword Qi suddenly emanating from him. His figure floated up, ready to dodge and extract the Spirit-Sealing Puppet Orb from it like he had done with the previous two Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppets; even if it were terrifying, it would have to surrender!

But just as Ye Zhen was in motion, he couldn’t help but shiver!

He felt as though he was being targeted by an Ancient Fierce Beast.

The next moment, two beams of red light suddenly burst from within the brightly flashing hall!

The two beams of red light instantly locked onto Ye Zhen!

Fear!

The moment he was locked by the two red beams, an unstoppable fear emerged from the depths of Ye Zhen’s heart, accompanied by a feeling of helplessness.

This feeling was not even present in front of Kings of the Establishment Realm like Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong.

Only when facing that ancestor of the Demon Race in the Immortal Realm Spiritual Veins had Ye Zhen ever felt such an overwhelming sense of helplessness.

Raising his head, Ye Zhen saw that the tremendously large Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet opposite him had already opened its eyes and was coldly staring at him!

Whoosh!

The Heart Sword Golden Light, measuring over a hundred meters long, slashed through the air with a ghastly whooshing sound, even carrying a faint purplish glow within.

That was the power of Purple Spirit lying dormant within Ye Zhen’s First Sword Vein.

As Ye Zhen’s Cultivation had skyrocketed during this period, his tolerance for the Purple Spirit’s power had greatly increased, enhancing his Heart Sword by thirty percent; Ye Zhen could even endure a sliver of the Purple Spirit’s True Body strength, as thin as a strand of hair.

However, the price Ye Zhen had to pay to harness this sliver of power from Purple Spirit was five thousand High-Grade Spirit Crystals.

This was a trade between him and the Purple Spirit.

Summoning the Purple Spirit’s True Body strength even once required offering five thousand High-Grade Spirit Crystals as replenishment!

Five thousand High-Grade Spirit Crystals, equivalent to six hundred thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Crystals, was a colossal price to pay; thus, since his Cultivation had soared to the Third Stage of the Vein Forging Realm, Ye Zhen had scarcely used it.

Just now, upon discovering the terrifying extent of the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet in front of him, Ye Zhen impulsively decided to use it.

In Ye Zhen’s calculation, his Heart Sword Sword Light might not withstand the unusual Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet before him, but with the sliver of True Body strength from Purple Spirit, it should pose no problem!

But sometimes, the gap between ideas and reality is brutally vast!

The extremely sharp Heart Sword Sword Light slashed at the chest area of the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet before him, and then...

And then there was no "then."

Apart from severing a few strands of red hair, it had no effect whatsoever!

His!

A faint sound suddenly raised a glimmer of hope in the disappointed Ye Zhen – it was the True Body strength of Purple Spirit hidden within the Heart Sword Golden Light!

But after barely a glance, Ye Zhen was disappointed again!

Half an inch deep!

The sliver of the Purple Spirit’s True Body strength had only managed to cut a wound less than half an inch deep at the chest of the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet. Only a trace of red blood had begun to seep out of the wound before it healed rapidly due to its powerful self-healing capabilities.

Ye Zhen’s pupils contracted sharply – blood!

The Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet before him was actually bleeding!

Instantly, Ye Zhen understood what was wrong.

This creature was infinitely more formidable than the previous two Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppets he had encountered and, crucially, this one bled, which meant it was certainly not a puppet crafted by the Beast Taming Sect!

This had to be a real Long-Armed Fire Monkey King, and an extremely powerful one at that, with Cultivation that could rival the ancient ancestor from the Devil God Palace!

Sensing the tremendous danger, Ye Zhen instinctively moved his Divine Sense, Spiritual Power vibrated around him with deep mysteriousness—his body sank, ready to escape into the ground!

At that very instant, the bleeding Long-Armed Fire Monkey King abruptly stomped his foot!

Bang!

The Beast Spirit Hall shook violently, yet quicker than the shaking, a ring of fiery glow spread!

A ring of red glow spread through the entire Beast Spirit Hall like ripples in water in an instant.

His!

The scents of burnt fabric and scorched flesh suddenly filled the air.

Amidst cries of alarm, Ye Zhen who was just about to burrow into the ground leaped up, "Damn, that’s hot!"

At the same time, this true Long-Armed Fire Monkey King indulgently sniffed, closed his eyes, and took several deep breaths, then made a statement that sent chills down Ye Zhen’s spine!

"Mm, smells delicious, it’s been a hundred years since this king has smelled the aroma of roasted meat!" His eyes closed, he kept sniffing the air, enjoying the scent of the burnt flesh.

In reality, it was the smell of Ye Zhen’s burnt soles.

Ye Zhen’s face turned deathly pale, the words spoken sounding horrifying no matter how he heard them, as if Ye Zhen were being considered as food!

The thought of being roasted and devoured as food by this creature made Ye Zhen shiver repeatedly!

As for escaping, looking at the ground where the red glow continued to spread like water ripples, Ye Zhen had a bitter smile on his face!

This terrifying creature, with just a stomp, spread a thick layer of Red Spiritual Power on the ground, rendering Ye Zhen’s Earth Escape ineffective and trapping him here!

"Little guy, don’t be afraid!"

Seeing the shocked Ye Zhen, this real Long-Armed Fire Monkey King suddenly chuckled, "It’s been over a hundred years since this king has encountered a living person. This king won’t just eat you without first savoring this century of solitude!"

"Vein Forging First Stage... no, Peak of the Third Stage of Vein Forging, capable of using a real Divine Ability like Earth Escape, and you even made it to this king. Interesting, interesting! Tell me, which old thing sent you here?" the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King’s gaze fixed on Ye Zhen again!

Ye Zhen once again gasped in shock – this creature had discerned his Cultivation level at a glance?

Is this still a demon beast?

Almost simultaneously, the tremendous shaking of the Beast Spirit Hall alarmed Yang Yiguan who was outside attacking the seal.

The unexplained tremors of the Beast Spirit Hall startled Yang Yiguan at first, but after a moment of thought, a wild joy spread across his face!

"That’s it, the tremors must mean that guy is turning over! He still exists!"

"Ha ha, as long as that guy is here, the revival of our Beast Taming Sect is hopeful, truly hopeful!" Yang Yiguan danced with joy, exclaiming wildly! (To be continued.
