Chapter 175 Inheritance



Chapter 175 Inheritance

The giant ape slowly emerged from the depths of the ruins, each step seeming to tread on the heart of the earth, producing a dull thud.

The bluish-green fur fluttered in the wind, standing upright like steel needles, radiating a metallic sheen.

Its towering body cast a huge shadow, enveloping Zhuang Yu and creating a suffocating sense of oppression.

A foul, fishy stench assaulted the senses, mixed with the smell of ancient wilderness, making one want to vomit.

The giant ape's crimson eyes, like two cold lanterns, stared intently at Zhuang Yu, as if scrutinizing a tiny and ignorant intruder.

Its heavy breaths exhaled two streams of white air, forming a brief mist in the air before quickly dissipating. A tense atmosphere filled the air, like a taut string that could snap at any moment.

Zhuang Yu felt a chill run down his spine as he sensed this powerful aura.

This power far surpasses any opponent he has encountered before, and is even stronger than Xuanjizi at his peak.

But he did not show the slightest fear. Instead, he took a deep breath and suppressed the restless true energy within his body.

He calmly gazed at the giant ape before him, slowly cupped his hands in a salute, and said in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant: "Junior Zhuang Yu has no intention of offending senior. He only wishes to enter the ruins to explore them. I hope senior will grant his request."

This scene greatly surprised Xuanjizi and Xiaobing, who were not far away.

Xiao Bing clutched his chest, blood still lingering at the corner of his mouth. He had expected Zhuang Yu to rush forward without hesitation, but he never expected him to bow.

Xuanjizi narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself: What is this kid up to?

Could it be that you are afraid?

not like...

The giant ape seemed to be affected by Zhuang Yu's actions. Its scarlet eyes narrowed slightly, and instead of launching an attack immediately, it let out a low roar that echoed through the valley like muffled thunder.

The roar seemed to carry a hint of doubt and confusion...

"Human, do you know what you're doing?" An aged yet authoritative voice echoed in Zhuang Yu's mind. "Where is this..."

The roar of the giant ape echoed in Zhuang Yu's mind; the voice was ancient and majestic, as if it were a call from ancient times.

"Where is..." The words were abruptly cut off, as if forcibly interrupted by some force.

Zhuang Yu's heart stirred; he knew the opportunity would be fleeting.

He did not respond to the voice in his mind, but instead focused all his attention on the seal in front of him.

He reached out his finger again and gently touched the ancient runes.

The true essence at the fingertips flowed like a gentle stream into the runes, which began to emit a faint light, as if sleeping stars were being awakened.

Zhuang Yu's fingers moved quickly across the seal's surface, like a skilled craftsman meticulously tracing the intricate patterns.

The runes shone brighter and brighter, like leaping flames, illuminating the surrounding air.

A faint energy fluctuation spread out around the seal like ripples, carrying a mysterious and ancient aura.

Xuanjizi, who was not far away, watched Zhuang Yu's actions and felt the sealing power weakening. He was extremely anxious.

He winked at Xiao Bing beside him, signaling him to take action.

Xiao Bing understood. He swallowed hard and moved his feet cautiously, like a sneaky wildcat, silently approaching Zhuang Yu.

He held his breath, but his movements did not escape Zhuang Yu's notice. The latter glanced at him and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

Just as Xiao Bing was about to get close, Zhuang Yu suddenly shifted to the side, dodging away like a ghost.

"boom!"

Xiao Bing missed his target and crashed hard into the stone wall beside him.

Stone fragments flew everywhere, dust billowed, and a tremendous roar was heard.

Xiao Bing let out a muffled groan, feeling as if his internal organs had shifted. He struggled to get up, but found that his body was no longer under his control.

Zhuang Yu slowly turned around, looking coldly at Xiao Bing lying on the ground. He raised his right foot and, as if by divine punishment, kicked Xiao Bing hard in the chest.

"Crack!"

A clear sound of bones cracking echoed through the empty ruins. Xiao Bing was sent flying backward like a rag doll, crashing into a large patch of rocks.

Stone fragments flew everywhere, raising clouds of dust, and the surrounding area was instantly a mess.

Xuanjizi's face instantly darkened, and his smug smile froze. He glared at Zhuang Yu through gritted teeth, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

This kid is even stronger than he imagined!

Just then, a voice suddenly rang in Zhuang Yu's mind: "You..."

The giant ape was furious when it saw that Zhuang Yu ignored its warning and attacked Xuanjizi's attendant, Xiao Bing.

It let out a deafening roar, and the sound waves spread outwards like tangible ripples. The surrounding rocks crumbled and turned to dust under the impact of this powerful sound wave.

"Roar!" The giant ape swung its massive arm, carrying immense force and accompanied by a whistling wind, and slammed it down fiercely towards Zhuang Yu.

This attack seemed intent on utterly crushing Zhuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu felt a strong gust of wind coming from behind him and was startled.

He tried to dodge, but found that the giant ape was too fast and he couldn't react in time.

With a loud bang, the giant ape's massive paw struck Zhuang Yu hard in the back.

Zhuang Yu's body flew forward like a kite with a broken string, spitting out a mouthful of blood that stained the surrounding ground red.

Intense pain surged like a tidal wave, and Zhuang Yu felt as if his internal organs had shifted, making it difficult to breathe.

He fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

The giant ape's attack did not stop; it took heavy steps, like a small mountain, as it approached Zhuang Yu.

Scarlet eyes

As Zhuang Yu lay on the ground, his vision began to blur and his consciousness began to dissipate.

But he did not give up; he gritted his teeth and tried to stay awake.

"Yao'er..."

The image of Wang Yao appeared in Zhuang Yu's mind.

That gentle and kind girl has always been quietly by his side, supporting him.

He couldn't fall; he still had to protect her, take her away from here, and give her a bright future.

"I can't fall..." Zhuang Yu

He took a deep breath, suppressed the restless true energy within his body, and tried his best to control his trembling body.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes becoming even more determined.

"I must obtain the inheritance..." Zhuang Yu's gaze fell into the depths of the ruins.

He slowly stood up. Although his body was still in excruciating pain, he straightened his back, standing proudly like an unyielding pine tree.

"Come on!" Zhuang Yu's gaze fell on the giant ape again, his eyes filled with fighting spirit. "Let me see just how strong you really are!"

He reached out and grabbed at the air...

Zhuang Yu reached out and grabbed at the air, a flash of golden light appeared, and a gleaming golden longsword appeared in his hand.

The sword is long and slender with a sharp blade, exuding a fierce sword aura that seems to slice through the surrounding air.

The hilt of the sword is engraved with intricate dragon patterns, so lifelike that it seems as if a golden dragon is coiled on it, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

This is another treasure that Zhuang Yu obtained in the mysterious space—the "Dragon-Slaying Sword".

The moment the Dragon-Slaying Sword was drawn, the entire ruins lit up.

The golden light, as dazzling as the rising sun, illuminated the dark ruins and dispelled the surrounding gloom.

Even the ferocious giant ape was stunned by the dazzling light, its scarlet eyes...

Zhuang Yu gripped the Dragon Slayer Sword tightly, and a powerful force emanated from the sword, flowing throughout his entire body.

He felt his power constantly increasing, as if he possessed inexhaustible strength.

He took a deep breath, raised the Dragon Slayer Sword high above his head, its tip pointing directly at the giant ape, and shouted sharply, "Come on, let me see your strength!"

After saying that, Zhuang Yu threw the Dragon-Slaying Sword out suddenly.

The Dragon Slayer Sword drew a golden arc in the air, shooting towards the giant ape like a bolt of lightning.

During its flight, the Dragon Slayer Sword grew larger and larger, transforming in the blink of an eye into a massive golden sword that exuded a suffocating aura.

"Roar!" The giant ape felt the power of the Dragon Slayer Sword and let out a terrified roar.

It waved its enormous arms, trying to block the attack of the Dragon Slayer Sword.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the Dragon Slayer Sword collided with the giant ape's massive paw.

Golden light intertwined with blue fur, forming a dazzling sphere of light.

The powerful shockwave spread outwards like a hurricane, and the surrounding rocks, as fragile as tofu, crumbled and turned to dust in the face of this powerful force.

The entire ruins trembled, as if they were about to collapse.

The giant ape was forced back several steps by the immense power of the Dragon-Slaying Sword, its massive body swaying precariously.

However, just as Zhuang Yu and the giant ape were locked in a stalemate, Xuanjizi, who was not far away, revealed a sinister smile.

He muttered incantations, his hands rapidly forming hand seals, and a powerful energy fluctuation emanated from his body.

"Boy, die!" A vicious glint flashed in Xuanjizi's eyes, and he thrust the hand seal forward with a sudden burst of energy...
