Stretching hundreds of thousands of miles, the Dahuang Mountain Range was not only the most notable in the Dayun Empire, but also where the best martial arts school—the Dahuang Palace was located.

　　Though the Dahuang Palace was influential, it made use of less than a tenth of the mountain range. Apart from the Palace, there were other schools.

　　The Aohan Palace was the strongest among them, second to the Dahuang Palace.

　　In the ten days, Yan Li had been thousands of miles deep into the Dahuang Woods where he encountered stronger and stronger monsters.

　　In the Mixed Yuan s.p.a.ce.

　　Having absorbing the last monster core, Yan found the Mixed Yuan vigor in him became abundant. He got a feeling of breaking into the first level.

　　But it was just the feeling. he knew that it needed an enormous number of vigor to achieve this.

　　Although he didn't undergo fundamental change in these days, the many fights with beasts brought his martial arts skills to a new level, especially the b.l.o.o.d.y one with the wolves.

　　Having digesting the Tiangang Boxing and the Divine Sky Sword Skill, he was a thorough master capable of performing the full strength of the skills.

　　He controlled his mind to get out from the s.p.a.ce, holding the Wushuang Sword in his hand to guard against beasts.

　　Suddenly, his ears moved slightly.

　　A harsh cry came from ten miles away.

　　"Someone's out there!"

　　The mountains were too large for humans. A person into the mountain was like a drop of water into the sea. Intently reaching the remote places, Yan actually did not meet a person these days.

　　With a tinge of panic and anger, the cry suggested that someone was in fight.

　　He rushed to the spot while performing the excellent moving skills. After a quarter, he hid in a big tree.

　　Some meters away, five men in long white clothes besieged a hairy giant golden monster in the height of three meters.

　　"King Kong ape!"

Drawing back his eyesight, Yan supposed the Yuan realm warriors were too bold to provoke a King Kong ape.

　　The King Kong ape was definitely powerful among the four-level monsters, with coa.r.s.e skin and great strength. Even an average Poyuan master dared not challenge them.

　　A young man sat on the edge of their battlefield to rehabilitate, and there were two more people lying on the ground covered in blood, who had already stopped breathing. They should be dead.

　　Yan suddenly figured out their ident.i.ty as he took notice of the plum blossoms mark on their arms.

　　They must come from the Aohan Palace. The cla.s.sification of both schools was the same, but all the Aohan disciples wore white uniforms.

　　The distinction among disciples was the number of flowers on their sleeves.

　　One for the out-door disciples, two for the in-door disciples, three for the elite disciples, and four for the core disciples.

　　Dead or alive, all had two plum blossoms on the sleeve, indicating that they were the in-door disciples. They must come here to practice in group.

　　In the fight with the King Kong ape, one injured, two died and the five were left in critical situation where they might be torn up at any time.

　　At this moment, roaring, the King Kong ape used its arms which were twice longer than the human's arms to punch at them heavily and constantly. Each punch was strong enough to blow the air, making a loud sound.

　　The disciples of the Aohan Palace dared not confront the tough with toughness, but moved dexterously around it to seek opportunity to attack it.

　　The long sabres were only normal weapons. However, the King Kong ape was great in defense. It only felt the pain on skin instead of being actually hurt when it was. .h.i.t by a sabre.

　　Due to limited physical power the warriors would have misstep in moves as their strength declined, and then came the moment of their death.

　　Yan was quick in judgement. With a little a.n.a.lysis, he knew that they would die unless a miracle appeared.

　　"Should I help them?"

It then occurred to him that the two schools were rivalries, not in good relations.

　　Usually, the disciples of the two sides did not appear to be kind when they met each other, because Aohan wanted to surpa.s.s Dahuang to be the top, so the latter oppressed the former, for fear that the former replaced it.

　　"Watch out, s.h.i.+mei Ao."

　　In a cry a white shadow flashed out. It was a young man who rushed to a female, shouting.

　　"Bang! "

　　The King Kong ape hit him in the chest. He spat out a mouthful of blood. His body flew a few meters away from the spot and fell down heavily.

　　"s.h.i.+xiong Leng!"

　　Numb, the rescued girl cried out sadly, but the instant attack of the ape allowed her no time but to evade in a quick pace.

　　The killed man was the only Shenyuan master among them. The other three became panic. How could they four defend the King Kong ape?

　　"Come on! Now that I've met them, I'll save them!" Yan sighed and made the decision.

　　Taking off the ident.i.ty badge of the Dahuang Palace and throwing it into the Mixed Yuan s.p.a.ce, he rushed into the fight.

　　The sword light burst, brilliant and dazzling!

　　" Shplitch!"

　　Regardless of the strong defense of the ape, Yan Li could easily cut its skin and flesh with the middle-cla.s.s magic weapon—the Wushang Sword.

　　"Scream!"

　　The King Kong ape raged, beat itself in the thick chest twice, and targeted Yan Li, completely ignoring the four. It flung the arms to punch Yan like falling raindrops.

　　Scarily, every punch of the King Kong ape in the air produced a blast. Now, there were consecutively ten punches. That was unimaginably terrible.

　　Yan dropped down his eyelids a little, not shocked by its momentum, and then he stepped backwards quickly.

　　A man with strong fighting was good at taking advantage of the environment in order to kill his enemies.

　　Yan Li was such a man. In the open ground, the King Kong ape was undoubtedly terrible. Even if he had the Wushuang Sword, he dared not challenge it boldly.

　　The best solution was to bring it into the woods where the dense trees could undermine its power due to the limitation caused by its huge body.

　　The desperate people felt lucky to see a youth suddenly appear and hurt the ape with only one move, but at the same time, they felt a little discomfort.

　　While withdrawing Yan Li spared no vigor to pour it into his sword in order to irritate it as the ape was hurt.

　　Indeed, the King Kong ape became furious and chased after Yan closely!

　　Soon, as it was planned, the ape went into the Dahuang Woods where the tress had thick trunks.

　　Yan Li was dexterous, but the ape not, for it was huge and its movements often limited by the trees.

　　Therefore, it broke off the trees with its long arms, which shocked Yan Li. The energy contained in one action reached ten thousand pounds. If a human got a hit, he might survive but should have serious injury.

Though with great strength the ape slowed down after breaking dozens of giant trees.

　　Just at the moment, Yan turned to its back.

　　Soaring!!!

　　Bursting out a ray of brilliant lightening, the Wushang Sword pierced into the back leg of the ape.

　　With only half of the sword tip pierced into it, Yan felt a resistance that stopped him to go deeper. Meanwhile, a powerful explosion came to his head.

　　Making a low sound, falling down, and striking the ground, he pulled out the long sword. Then he went through from the ape's crotch and thrusted against a tree with his body close to the ground, shooting himself away for several meters.

　　The Aohan disciples intended to help but was stopped by the one sitting cross-leg to rehabilitate. He fully understood Yan Li's plan and could not help admiring him. His fellows would disrupt Yan Li's attempt.

　　Seeing Yan Li making use of the environment to hurt the ape again, he could not refrain from praising him in heart.
