Chapter 165: Can't Changqing Hold On?

Chapter 165: Can't Changqing Hold On?

Upon seeing the sudden appearance of a figure, both the Fierce Ape and Armored Bear were taken aback, and their laughter grew louder.

"Haha, you've just reached the peak of the Divine Body, and you're already trying to be a hero?" Armored Bear licked his lips, his eyes burning with passion. "But this is good."

"We brothers don't need to fight; one for each of us."

The Fierce Ape, standing nearby, looked at the woman and grinned maliciously. "I'll take this one; the other peak Divine Body is yours."

The two demons casually divided up their soon-to-be spoils of war as if no one else was around.

However, Su Changqing, who had reached the peak of the Divine Body, didn't make them feel any threat.

In contrast to the two demons, the woman's face was filled with excitement.

"Senior Brother Changqing, you're finally back!"

Su Changqing had indeed reached the peak of the Divine Body, and she was well aware of how terrifying his power was.

"Senior Brother Changqing, be careful. These two are very strong, and they are..."

After snapping out of her excitement, the female disciple quickly spoke up, reminding Su Changqing to be cautious.

Although Su Changqing was powerful, the two demons before him were not weak either.

The descendants of the Lingxi Clan and the Divine Ape Clan, both with royal bloodlines, possessed formidable combat strength.

But before she could finish her sentence, the two demons in front of her suddenly froze.

"Are you Su Changqing?"

Armored Bear's eyes lit up. "The Su Changqing who once suppressed the Little Phoenix King?"

"Did you come here specifically for me?"

Su Changqing's eyebrows rose slightly as he asked.

Armored Bear was about to say something, but suddenly—

Boom!

The Fierce Ape roared with laughter, stomping his foot heavily, causing the rocks to shatter as his body shot forward like a sharp sword.

"He's mine!"

Seeing this, Armored Bear cursed angrily and followed closely behind.

As the Fierce Ape appeared before his eyes in an instant, Su Changqing clenched his fist and threw a punch in response.

The two fists collided, and a wave of energy exploded from their bodies.

The howling wind and flying sand filled the air.

In a pure test of strength, Su Changqing took two steps back.

He shook his numb arm, then unexpectedly turned to look at the Fierce Ape before him.

"What formidable strength."

Since Su Changqing began his cultivation, this was the first time he had encountered such a formidable opponent in terms of sheer power.

However, the Fierce Ape was already feeling a sense of dread.

He was a member of the Demon Race and hailed from the Divine Ape Clan, renowned for their divine strength.

Moreover, he had reached the peak of the Divine Body, a whole realm above Su Changqing.

But the result was that Su Changqing had only retreated two steps and remained completely unharmed.

After just one exchange, the Fierce Ape's expression turned solemn.

"Haha, here I come!"

At that moment, Armored Bear roared with laughter as he charged forward, leaping high into the air and clenching his fists like heavy hammers, slamming down forcefully.

The howling wind made Su Changqing's clothes flutter noisily.

"Phantom God!"

Su Changqing's body moved slightly, and in an instant, dozens of afterimages appeared in the field.

The real Su Changqing took a light step, causing the landscape to shift, and he instantly appeared behind Armored Bear.

Boom!

Su Changqing clenched his fist and threw a powerful punch at Armored Bear's back.

The exploding energy wave caused the rocks within a hundred zhang to shatter suddenly.

However, this heavy and powerful punch only made Armored Bear stumble slightly, without even breaking through his defense.

"Ouch, kid, not bad strength."

Armored Bear grimaced in pain but still grinned menacingly, "But this strength can't break through the defense of my Lingxi Clan."

The Lingxi Clan was known for their exceptional endurance and terrifying defense.

Within the same realm, very few could break through the defense of the Lingxi Royal Clan.

The female disciple, who had retreated a hundred zhang away, saw Su Changqing being besieged by the two demons, and her face turned anxious.

She wanted to help but was well aware of her own abilities; going forward would only create more chaos.

"No good, I need to quickly call for help!"

With this thought, the female disciple ran as fast as she could, turning around and dashing away.

Armored Bear and the Fierce Ape saw this and their eyes turned cold, knowing they couldn't wait any longer.

"Are all demons this strong?"

Su Changqing's eyes flickered with doubt, but he soon shook his head.

"Forget it, my teacher is still waiting for me at the small mountain peak; I need to hurry."

After speaking, Su Changqing clenched his right fist in the air.

Hiss!

Complex Dao patterns quickly condensed from his palm, forming a rustic giant axe over a person's height, exuding a sense of powerful beauty.

"Kill!"

At that moment, Armored Bear roared, and behind him, a hundred-zhang-tall Lingxi beast appeared, charging with its horns.

Su Changqing held the axe with one hand and took a step, causing the landscape to shift, and he instantly appeared behind Armored Bear.

"Slash!"

Su Changqing muttered softly, and the ancient patterns etched on the edge of the Heaven Splitting Axe faintly glowed.

Boom!

In an instant, a razor-sharp aura that seemed capable of slicing through everything surged heavenward.

Rip!

Su Changqing swung his axe, and the supposedly invincible defense of the Lingxi Clan tore apart like cloth.

With almost no resistance, the Heaven Splitting Axe flashed past Mang Kai's neck.

"How is this possible!"

Seeing the massive axe flash by, Mang Kai's eyes showed confusion.

His proud defense had been torn apart so easily.

Boom.

Dust rose, and Mang Kai fell heavily to the ground, revealing his true form.

It was a massive rhinoceros, over fifteen meters long, with skin like jade, resembling a small mountain peak.

But now, the Lingxi was headless, and a crystalline blood spread out.

"What a huge rhinoceros!"

Seeing the exaggeratedly large rhinoceros, Su Changqing's eyes brightened, and his throat moved slightly.

"Mang Kai... is dead?"

Seeing the fallen Mang Kai, the Fierce Ape was completely stunned.

He never expected that the Lingxi Clan, known for its defense, couldn't even withstand one axe blow.

After regaining his senses, the Fierce Ape's scalp tingled, and his heart trembled.

Only now did he understand the terrifying value of being first on the Heavenly Pride List.

"Run!"

Without any hesitation, the Fierce Ape turned and ran like a dog fleeing from its home.

Wang Wangsun was actually dead!

This was a huge deal, and the Lingxi Clan would certainly not let it go easily.

His only option now was to run as fast as he could.

Facing the youth who had killed Mang Kai with a single axe, he had no courage to fight back.

"You forgot about me."

Seeing the fleeing Fierce Ape, Su Changqing smiled, took a step, and quickly approached the Fierce Ape.

Boom!

A sharp axe beam shot out.

Rip!

The Fierce Ape had no intention of resisting; his arm flew high, transforming into a three-meter-long Feral Ape's Arm and crashing to the ground.

In exchange for losing an arm, the Fierce Ape used the momentum to jump far away and run off in a miserable state.

"Quite decisive."

Su Changqing shook his head in regret.

If the Fierce Ape had dared to look back for a moment, Su Changqing was confident he could have slain him.

But the Fierce Ape was also ruthless, choosing to sever his arm to escape.

"Still, a good harvest."

"One rhinoceros, one ape arm, should last a while, right?"

Looking at his spoils, Su Changqing's eyes gleamed with joy.

Perhaps due to his upbringing, he had a great love for wild game.

Even though he could fast, he still enjoyed indulging in it from time to time.

"Let's go back to the sect."

In a good mood, Su Changqing dragged the massive Lingxi, held the three-meter-long ape arm, and the large rhinoceros head, heading back to the Little Immortal Sect.

But before he reached the Mountain Gate, over a dozen disciples, their faces filled with urgency, rushed over from a distance.

"Little Sister Song, where is it? Can Senior Brother Changqing hold on?"

"Quick, faster, those are two Noble Descendants! If we're slow, it might be too late!"

"Senior Brother Changqing should be able to hold on. Don't forget, our Senior Brother Changqing is very strong!"

"Ah, but they are two Noble Descendants. Let's hope. Faster!"

Led by Little Sister Song, the dozen disciples hurried over, their faces showing anxiety.

But halfway through, they saw Su Changqing dragging a massive Lingxi and holding a golden-furred ape arm, walking slowly towards them.

Seeing the disciples, Su Changqing patted the Lingxi corpse beside him and smiled brightly.

"Hello, everyone. Come to the Outer Gate Small Mountain Peak for a meal later."

It was like someone in the village calling their neighbors over for a drink after a successful hunt.

Su Changqing walked into the Mountain Gate as if nothing had happened.

The dozen disciples, who had been anxious, were now silent.

"Is that rhinoceros... Mang Kai? And the arm... the Fierce Ape's?"

A disciple hesitated to ask, his eyes filled with confusion.

"It seems... so."

Another disciple's lips trembled as he spoke.

The lead disciple's mouth twitched, looking at the equally stunned female disciple.

"Is this what you meant..."

"When you said Senior Brother Changqing was about to give up?"
