Apotheosis
#42 Difference in Strength
The leader of the mad monkey was in the middle life and death realm, this was a bad situation for them. At first they only thought that the leader of the mad monkeys was in the realm of early life and death.
If it was only the realm and early death they could at least fight it. However, if the middle life and death realm their chances of dying were extremely high.
“Howto now?” Xia Shuang asked
They all thought the same thing, running away was the best option. However, if they did that then all their previous efforts would be in vain. Their goal of killing the mad monkeys was to take out the crystal that was on their foreheads, Yun Tianxie and the others had killed many crazy monkeys but they had not taken a single crystal yet.
Just that they thought about it, was it worth taking the risk just to take the crystal? Moreover, they themselves did not know the usefulness of the crystal, Ye Xuan simply told them to take it.
“What if you put everything in?” Liu Yu's
If Liu Yu was using Spear Technique: World Tree of Destruction, Yun Tianxie was using Sword of Divinity: Truth of the World, and lastly Xia Shuang used her strongest Technique then there would be a possibility for them to win.
“It's not a good idea.” Yun Tianxie shook her head, she rejected Liu Yu's proposal
By exerting everything, even if they won they would definitely be injured very badly just like before. When that happens they will only be easy prey for other monsters.
“Then... what will we do? Will backing out be the best option?” Liu Yu looked at Yun Tianxie, he knew the difference in strength was huge. Even so he still wanted to fight against the leader of the mad monkey
Yun Tianxie was pensive, he asked Lin Feng, [What do you think master Lin Feng is?]
[Differentiating your strength too far, retreating is the best option.] Lin Feng gave his advice. He then continued, [Just always looking for safety is not a good thing, if you continue to do that you will not experience any development on your path of cultivation.]
As cultivators, the path they took was extremely dangerous. Although they will get rewarded by being strong and gaining experience, the possibility of failure is always greater.
Cultivators were always used to it, taking risks by risking their lives. They knew, if they were always looking for a safe path they would not progress in cultivation.
“What about you, Xia Shuang? Do you also want to finish this until the end?” Yun Tianxie looked at Xia Shuang, there was a hint of doubt on her face.
Xia Shuang was indeed strong, but she did not have the ambition and great courage that Liu Yu had. Xia Shuang only thought of wanting to do it because she wanted to, not to pursue something.
“If... If the princess wants to fight against that crazy monkey leader, I will go with her.” Xia Shuang replied with a slight hesitation.
That should be a good answer, but there was dissatisfaction on Liu Yu's face. Yun Tianxie did not know for sure what was making him dissatisfied, since it seemed to involve quite a troublesome matter, Yun Tianxie had absolutely no intention of looking for him.
“Alright, but there is one condition from me that you must follow, Liu Yu!”
“What is it?” Liu Yu looked at Yun Tianxie, if those conditions could be met he would definitely accept her terms.
“In that case there is no reason for you to use that spear technique of yours. Only I will use my technique.”
Liu Yu walked towards the leader of the mad monkey. Within the leader's aura was a trace of incomprehensible anger. The mad monkey leader let out his aura in a very crazy manner, that aura filled the place.
The crazy monkeys that were there became extremely depressed, unable to move their bodies. Of course Liu Yu was also affected by that aura. However the aura itself was still small, when compared to the pressure from the black eyes of fear then the aura was simply not felt.
Liu Yu continued walking, the attention of the mad monkey leader diverted to Liu Yu. The leader was a little confused, in his eyes Liu Yu was a weak human being. Why was he not affected by his aura at all?
The leader of the mad monkey then roared very strongly, intending to bully Liu Yu. It was still not enough, Liu Yu was still not affected.
The leader of the mad monkey became enraged, he quickly moved to Liu Yu. Swinging his fist. The leader miscalculated, he was only focusing on Liu Yu. Without realizing it Xia Shuang had been by his side, swinging her sword.
The mad monkey tried to change the direction of his punch, but did not have time. The distance of the sword had been very close, he then quickly retreated. However, that doesn't solve the problem.
Liu Yu quickly snapped at him, swinging his spear right at his stomach. The leader of the mad monkey became confused, there was Xia Shuang who attacked from beside him, and Liu Yu from in front of him.
He had to quickly take Action, the slightest mistake would make him lose his life. That's what the crazy monkey leader thinks.
Xia Shuang swung her sword, it was an extremely powerful swing. It could easily cut a large tree. It's just that the leader's bark of a mad monkey is much harder than a tree. Xia Shuang's attack only inflicted a scratch wound.
“More easy than expected.”
On the other hand, Liu Yu's spear strike gave a considerable wound. Much better than Xia Shuang's attack. The leader of the mad monkey realized something, out of the two of them only Liu Yu needed him to be aware of.
Xia Shuang's attack only inflicted a small wound for him. It was not a problem, the most important thing for him was to avoid any attacks by Liu Yu.
Every time Liu Yu gave his spear a shout, the leader of the mad monkeys always held back the attack with his hand. He continued to let Xia Shuang attack him. Right now there were quite a number of small wounds on his body, wounds from Xia Shuang's sword slash.
To Xia Shuang, being underestimated by a creature of reason was definitely an insult. It's just that he
not much of a concern for him, he continued to swing his sword, there was no need to inflict a huge wound. You just need to make a small wound.
Over time the leader of the mad monkey realized something, Liu Yu's movements looked very fast. No, he realized that his movements had become slower. His sight also became worse.
How did that happen? The leader of the mad monkey kept thinking about it, he finally realized that there was poison in Xia Shuang's sword blade. Every time Xia Shuang made a small wound the poison would enter her body.
The leader of the mad monkey became furious, he quickly attacked Xia Shuang immediately.
“Have been caught ya.”
The trick was already discovered, Xia Shuang quickly moved away from the leader of the mad monkeys.
