Traveling through the Immortal Realm: Starting from Becoming a Top-Level Furnace Cauldron

Lu Yuguan looked at everything in front of him in horror.

Youmingzi's pupils slowly dilated, and the light in his eyes dissipated.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which was nauseating just by smelling it.

"Uh...uh..."

Youmingzi wanted to continue speaking, but he could only utter unconscious syllables.

Lu Yuguan lowered his gaze, the hole in his abdomen made his heart beat wildly.

"What it is?!"

Lu Yuguan was so frightened that his face turned pale, his eyes wide open and filled with terror, his face was as pale as if the blood had been drained out, as if he was the one whose abdomen had been hollowed out.

puff-

The owner of the bloody hairy hand seemed to have noticed Lu Yuguan's gaze, and twisted his arm with a sense of evil, repeatedly extending and retracting his arm, bringing out pieces of the moth's broken intestines.

vomit.

Lu Yuguan's stomach was churning. He suppressed his nausea and tried hard not to vomit.

Youmingzi's body began to twitch and his life was rapidly slipping away.

The summer night wind blew gently, dispersing the thin clouds in the sky. The moonlight poured down like flowing water, illuminating the entire Houzhuang and the owner of the bloody hand.

It was the face of a hairy ape.

The hairy ape is nearly two meters tall and is covered with brown and black hair.

It leaned against Youmingzi and was a whole head taller than him.

The hairy face looked particularly ferocious under the moonlight, the hairy ape's eyes flashed with cunning light, and there was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

"What kind of creature is this..." Lu Yuguan stood there in a daze.

He felt like his breathing was about to stop, fearing that the hairy ape in front of him would pierce him.

【Host】

Look at the village behind...

Following the system's voice, Lu Yuguan shuddered instantly. His body trembled violently as if he had seen a ghost. His eyes stared at the rows of houses in front of him, his face pale with fear.

Hairy Ape...

Hairy Ape...

The whole village is full of hairy monkeys.

Countless pairs of round eyes cast curious glances at Lu Yuguan through the window.

Several smaller hairy apes walked out of the room and ran towards the giant moth's corpse together at an extremely fast speed, not like normal animals at all.

They first squatted beside the sticky liquid around the giant moth and kept sniffing with their noses raised. Then they stretched out their palms to scoop up the giant moth's body fluids and put them into their mouths as if tasting fine wine.

Seeing their companions approaching, the other hairy apes who were still ready to make a move also rushed over like crazy, picked up the broken elytra of the giant moth, and gnawed on it happily.

The hairy apes' faces were covered in mucus and blood, and they looked like demons crawling out of hell.

The hairy ape, not getting any success, tried to get closer to Youmingzi's body, but when it got less than a meter away, it was roared back by the brown-black hairy ape.

"This should only be the leader."

Lu Yuguan endured the discomfort and dared not move.

Faced with an unknown creature, Lu Yuguan did not dare to act rashly. No one knew the motive of the hairy ape in attacking Youmingzi.

The brown-black-haired ape sensed Lu Yuguan's fear, slowly opened its bloody mouth, and slowly gnawed at Youmingzi's head.

Click.

It was the sound of a skull cracking.

The head of the moth was like a juicy grape, but the brown-haired ape refused to even peel the skin, and bit it roughly, causing countless juices to burst out instantly.

Lu Yuguan took a step back and was so scared that he covered his mouth with his hands to prevent himself from shouting.

"Tong-chan...what should I do now?"

Lu Yuguan asked the system for help in his heart. The countless scenes just now were like a nightmare that could not be removed from his mind.

【Host】

[Try to circulate your spiritual power]

The system said.

After hearing this, Lu Yuguan secretly practiced the furnace and cauldron mental method, but his efforts seemed to be immersed in endless darkness, and there was no response from the spiritual sea.

"How could this happen?!" Lu Yuguan's expression froze, and he asked in shock, "Why can't I even use a trace of spiritual power?"

If I guess correctly

[Houzhuang must have been restricted, and all spiritual power is restricted.]

[There may also be a no-fly effect]

Lu Yuguan thought for a moment.

It was indeed as the system said. When he and You Mingzi entered the air above Houzhuang just now, they both fell down without exception.

Although he was still able to use some skills at the beginning, he now lost the ability to use spiritual power without any warning.

Otherwise, with Youmingzi's ability, it would be impossible for him to be killed by the brown-haired ape in one blow.

"You Mingzi has at least reached the Perfect Foundation Establishment stage, but if he doesn't use his spiritual power, relying on his tall, thin, and slender figure, he's no different from an ordinary person," Lu Yuguan pondered carefully. "No, since Houzhuang restricts the use of spiritual power, how can these hairy apes—"

They have no spiritual power.

The system suddenly spoke.

"This group of hairy apes only have pure physical strength!" Lu Yuguan said in astonishment.

The brown-haired ape in front of him spat out the half-chewed head, threw the remaining body to its companion behind him, and then stared at Lu Yuguan as if he was looking at prey.

Lu Yuguan's heartbeat suddenly quickened, his mind became confused, and his hands and feet instantly became cold.

The feeling of fear spread from his mind to every nerve in his body. Lu Yuguan had only felt this feeling when he faced the old woman in the deep and mysterious realm.

Looking at the brown-black haired ape gradually approaching, Lu Yuguan stood there with a dead look on his face, trembling and waiting for death.

"Tong-chan, let's meet in the next life."

【Can you fight for your dignity? 】

The system's tone suddenly became anxious, and it loudly encouraged Lu Yuguan.

[You are now less than twenty meters away from the border of Houzhuang. If you muster up the courage to run out, you will have a chance of survival—]

"It's no use, Tongzi. You've seen the speed of this brown-black-haired ape. I can't outrun it with my own two legs."

Lu Yuguan gave a few bitter laughs and said his final goodbye to the system.

"You always disliked me for swearing, but now you don't have to worry about being harassed by me anymore."

【Host】

Lu Yuguan slowly closed his eyes.

【Lu Yuguan】

Lu Yuguan still didn't move.

[Fuck you, if you survive, I'll tell you a shocking secret!]

Seeing that Lu Yuguan remained unmoved, the system became too anxious to care about anything else and blurted out a sentence.

[Zhao Zimo and Li Chonglin are both bad people]

[You have long been defiled by Zhao Zimo——]

"Ah?" Lu Yuguan suddenly opened his eyes, his mouth agape, unable to speak. He stammered, "What did you just say?"

Before the system could answer, the figure of the brown-black haired ape had already attacked Lu Yuguan.

Oops.

No time to dodge!

Lu Yuguan's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively raised his hands, ready to resist with all his might.

Just as he was about to be touched by the hairy ape's sharp claws, a pitch-black cat-like beast jumped out from the side.

"Meow!--"

The pitch-black meow beast let out a sharp cry, and its agile body drew a graceful arc in the air, rushing straight towards the brown-black hairy ape.

The brown-and-black-haired ape was frightened by the sudden attack and instinctively waved its claws to fight back.

However, the meow beast's movements were extremely agile. It twisted its body flexibly, then stretched out its sharp claws and fiercely scratched several bloody marks on the hairy ape's face.

The hairy ape roared angrily and quickly retreated several meters. The cry attracted other hairy apes, and all of them stared at the little black cat with ill intentions.

Lu Yuguan stared with wide eyes at his life-saving cat.

I rely on.

It really wasn’t in vain that I petted cats in my previous life.
