Wu Sheng: I can adapt to evolution

Chapter 16 Encounter with the Heart-Eating Ape

"What monsters? I think Lu Gao lost the [Monster Killing Order] and has become hysterical thinking about monsters all the time."

At the end of the team, a one-armed middle-aged man glanced at the people from the Wu Temple walking in front, and his words were also unhappy.

The others had similar thoughts as him. After all, anyone would get impatient after wandering around in the mountains for so long.

"Master Luo, we can't defeat them. It's useless to say anything."

The person who answered was a tall and thin man with a spear on his back. It was obvious that he was not optimistic about this search either.

It's just that his personality is much better than the hot-tempered Luo Ying, so he is in the mood to comfort the other person at this time.

Although the one-armed middle-aged man frowned, he didn't say anything more.

Chu Xiong watched from the side and silently tightened the knife on his waist.

Everyone kept their heads down and walked forward for several miles.

"stop!"

The envoy from the Martial Temple suddenly raised his hand, and everyone's heart immediately jumped. The originally dull atmosphere became tense.

Everyone looked around, but there was not a single star in the sky, and a thin layer of mist had risen, obstructing their vision in the dark night.

Everyone looked around but didn't find anything unusual.

"Master..."

Several disciples around Chu Xiong gathered around and spoke in a low voice.

"Shhh."

Chu Xiong already had one hand on the knife, looking around vigilantly.

Quiet, too quiet.

It was as quiet as death.

This is so abnormal.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Suddenly, from a cliff, there were bursts of sobbing sounds that sounded like tears and complaints. After hearing them, people felt sad and heartbroken.

At the same time, a tall white figure appeared.

"Heart-eating monkey!"

Everyone in the Wu Temple looked at each other in surprise and joy. After a month in the mountains, they finally found the trace of the Heart-Eating Monkey.

"A monster has appeared, everyone get ready!"

County Lieutenant Lu Gao shouted loudly and called everyone over. At the same time, he drew his long sword and was on guard.

"Woo!"

The sound of the white figure on the cliff suddenly became sharp, and the next moment it jumped down and swooped down.

It doesn't look that bad from a distance, but when you get close, you can really feel the terrible sense of oppression.

It was a huge ape, its body covered in snow-white, more than three meters tall, with long arms that reached the ground, and its hands were like palm-leaf fans.

The sharp, barbed claws seemed to be made of steel.

Just standing there makes people lose the courage to face it.

The eighth-grade demon beast, the Heart-Eating Monkey!

The Heart-Eating Ape was incredibly fast, dashing in front of the group in the blink of an eye. The Martial Temple's members were the first to attack. Their weapons were strange, resembling iron claws with chains at the ends.

"Swish swish."

The moment the Heart-Eating Ape approached, they scattered and retreated, then flung out their iron claws, precisely catching the ape's massive body. The Martial Temple's members formed multiple directions and pulled back simultaneously, creating a crisscrossing iron net that instantly pinned the Heart-Eating Ape in the middle.

The Heart-Eating Ape struggled casually, and the entire iron net was lifted up. Everyone staggered and could not stand steadily.

But it was obvious that the people in the Wu Temple had already prepared a countermeasure. They grabbed the cone-shaped object at the other end of the chain tightly, stretched out their hands and exerted force, and shot it deep into the soil.

The moment they hit the soil, these cones exploded and opened, firmly fixed to the ground.

This time, the iron net became solid, and even the Heart-Eating Monkey would find it difficult to break free for a while.

"Everyone, come together!"

Everyone in the Wu Temple had a blank expression on their faces and shouted an order.

The warriors in these places are here to be cannon fodder, not to watch the fun. How can they just let themselves and others fight to the death here?

The Heart-Eating Ape is more than five times taller than an ordinary person, and humans look incredibly small when standing in front of it.

Most of the people were encountering monsters for the first time and were terrified.

"kill!"

Lu Gao had experience in facing monsters. Although it was only a ninth-grade monster, it was still much better than everyone else.

He shouted loudly and rushed to the first one with a long sword in hand. His feet were like a horse stepping on the ground, and the long sword in his hand was like mercury pouring out. As his muscles twitched, his hidden strength burst out.

"Clang!"

As a third-level [Dark Power] warrior, Lu Gao's strength reaches a terrifying 5,000 kilograms, and he can deliver bone-penetrating force. Even ordinary weapons can exert the power of magic in his hands.

But when his blade hit the Heart-Eating Ape, the opponent's hair was like soft golden armor, tough and soft, and did not bear any force at all. The muscles inside were full of powerful explosive power, which directly caused his long sword to rebound.

A trace of horror flashed in Lu Gao's eyes. He had overestimated the strength of the eighth-grade monster, but now the difference was too big.

His strength is already the strongest among everyone in Changning County, and the others are even worse.

Luo Ying was a master of the swift sword and swung it out dozens of times in a breath, but it was just like a tickle on the Heart-Eating Ape's body.

Chu Xiong, the master of the Thunder Fist, was also good at swordsmanship. His [Seventy-two Moves of the Swallow Tail Single Sword] flew like a swallow, with a flash of cold light, and it was a move. However, the Heart-Eating Ape only sneered and didn't even turn his head.

There was also Yang Changlong, the son of Mr. Iron Spear Yang. He aimed the spear at the vital points on the monkey's body and shook it slightly. Dozens of cold rays flashed and headed straight for the Heart-Eating Monkey's knees, genitals and lower abdomen.

"Roar!"

The Heart-Eating Ape simply turned its body slightly, and many of its vital points were missed.

But the actions of these little ants obviously made it angry. It was struggling and pulling the chains left and right, and it was even possible that the chains would be pulled out of the ground at any time.

"Ouch."

One of Luo Ying's disciples was too close to the Heart-Eating Ape. When he wasn't paying attention, the ape's sharp claws pierced his heart like a dagger at lightning speed.

"Thorn."

The Heart-Eating Monkey's two fingers were like chopsticks. With a light pick and hook, a bulging heart was forcibly pulled out.

A sinister grin appeared on its face, and it put the heart in its mouth and bit it hard, with blood flowing down between its teeth, as if it was eating a fresh tomato.

The young warrior who had just been acting with everyone was now just two torn pieces of debris.

This scene was naturally very shocking to everyone, but they had no time to be sad. They just wanted to inflict more damage to the monster while it was still restrained.

Lu Gao slashed dozens of times, but there was not even a single wound on the Heart-Eating Ape's body. Instead, his blade was already curled up.

Most of his physical strength was also depleted. Trying to unleash his hidden energy consumed his physical strength extremely, and his legs were weak at this moment.

Lu Gao's face showed despair. According to legend, there was a warrior in the Martial Temple who was able to fight against monsters of the same level. He wanted to ask what kind of genius that person was and how powerful it would take to defeat such a monster.

The Heart-Eating Ape, perhaps because of the stimulation of having swallowed a fresh heart before, became more and more energetic and struggled louder and louder.
