Huh!
As he stepped through the air, the wings on his back vibrated, slashing out like sharp blades.
Boom!
He unleashed a sword strike, the sound of its cry echoing through the desolate wilderness.
As the sword descended, the nearby void twisted, the fierce sword light tearing through the void, striking heavily into the soil beside the Molten Flame Fruit.
Whoosh!
As Jiang Yunhe made his move, a pair of wings unfolded behind him.
These wings were thin, yet as sharp as knives.
With a flap, they slashed into the soil beside the Molten Flame Fruit.
Instantly, the soil was cleaved open, and pebbles scattered like meteor strikes, slamming into the cliffs on either side.
Rumble!
Some rocks tumbled down, crashing into the valley below, stirring up dust.
This was a rocky pit, not particularly deep.
This was also due to the Molten Flame Fruit; otherwise, it would have long been buried deep underground.
As the rocks crumbled, Jiang Yunhe flashed, arriving beside the Molten Flame Fruit.
"Hehe, is this Molten Flame Fruit ripe?"
Seeing this, he hurriedly reached out his claws to grab the Molten Flame Fruit.
Ding!
Runes flickered on the surface of the Molten Flame Fruit, repelling Jiang Yunhe's claws.
At the same time, the soil around the Molten Flame Fruit churned, and the demonic ape appeared.
This was a demonic ape.
This demonic ape was massive, half a foot taller than Jiang Yunhe, its thick arms exceeding five meters in diameter, practically like a small mountain range lying there.
"Such a powerful aura."
Upon seeing this demonic ape, Jiang Yunhe's heart sank, and his face tightened.
"Father, this..."
Jiang Wang was also dumbfounded.
"There's a demonic ape hidden here!"
"It's very strong!"
Jiang Yunhe mused, "However, with my current combat power, killing it will be a breeze."
"Since that's the case, what are we waiting for?"
Jiang Wang quickly urged.
"Alright!"
Jiang Yunhe nodded, then with a wave of his hand, he conjured a battle spear and charged toward the demonic ape.
Whoosh!
The battle spear danced, coiling like a dragon and soaring like a flood dragon, poised to shatter the void.
The demonic ape raised its eyes, its right hand extended, and the horn on its head radiated light, a vast wave rippling out.
Bang!
A beam of light shot out from its horn, piercing the void and landing on the battle spear.
As the beam of light struck the battle spear, its sharp tip instantly shattered the battle spear conjured by Jiang Yunhe.
Buzz!
The golden battle spear trembled, as if about to crack, its light dimming, as if about to shatter.
Jiang Yunhe's wrist was impacted by the aftermath, causing blood to flow freely.
"So powerful!"
Jiang Yunhe's heart leaped, this demonic ape was even stronger than he had anticipated.
Bang!
As the beam of light dissipated, the battle spear shattered, and a massive force erupted from the spear.
Jiang Yunhe staggered, forced to retreat more than ten meters.
Whoosh!
The demonic ape swung its iron rod, smashing it into the rock wall where the Molten Flame Fruit was located.
Crack!
The rock wall there cracked and collapsed.
Then the demonic ape slammed its giant palm onto the rock wall, the area caving in, and the Molten Flame Fruit directly sank into its palm.
"Haha, Molten Flame Fruit!"
Seeing this, Jiang Yunhe couldn't help but laugh.
"This is a treasure medicine that enhances the power of the physical body; let's quickly retrieve it."
As he spoke, Jiang Yunhe led Jiang Wang straight toward the rock wall, wanting to retrieve the Molten Flame Fruit.
However, the demonic ape slapped out with its palm, and Jiang Yunhe's body was sent flying.
The storage bag in his hand was overturned, and the contents spilled all over the ground.
The medicine bottles and jade boxes were all shattered, rolling all over the place.
Even the Molten Flame Fruit separated from the rock wall and flew into the void.
"Damn beast, how dare you destroy my Molten Flame Fruit!"
Seeing this, Jiang Yunhe roared.
Although the Molten Flame Fruit was a treasure medicine, it was even more important to him because it could enhance his bloodline power.
Now that such a treasure had been destroyed, how could he not be angry?
He strode out, attacking the demonic ape once more.
"Hmph, little human, with your early-stage Innate cultivation, you dare to compete with this lord for the Molten Flame Fruit; you're courting death!"
The demonic ape snorted coldly, its fist swinging towards Jiang Yunhe.
Boom!
Accompanying it was the demonic ape's deep footsteps, its fist smashing down, the void cracking, and terrifying power crushing down.
Jiang Yunhe tried his best to resist.
Bang!
Only a muffled sound was heard, and Jiang Yunhe was sent flying.
Pfft!
He spat out blood, and the bones in his chest shattered.
In just one exchange, he was severely injured.
Chapter 1399: To Go
"Hiss, this demonic ape is too strong, isn't it?"
Seeing this, Jiang Wang gasped.
"It seems this Molten Flame Fruit will belong to it!"
Jiang Yunhe revealed a face full of regret.
"But it doesn't matter, as long as it perishes here, are we still afraid of not being able to take the Molten Flame Fruit?"
Jiang Wang also revealed a ferocious smile.
This Molten Flame Fruit was a treasure he had dreamed of!
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Jiang Yunhe frowned and said, "It seems to be injured."
In front of him, the demonic ape was staring at him, its gaze gloomy, exuding monstrous ferocity.
"This demonic ape is indeed injured!"
Jiang Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
During the exchange just now, he sensed that the demonic ape's aura was weakening, clearly injured.
"Then, let's kill it now!"
Jiang Yunhe's eyes turned icy, and his figure moved, lunging towards the demonic ape, wanting to take advantage of the demonic ape's injuries, even his bones shattered.
All of this completely exceeded his understanding.
He had to know, he was a Yuan Ying realm cultivator!
Even if his realm was suppressed here, it wasn't much different.
How could this giant wolf be so powerful?
"Father!"
Jiang Wang exclaimed, his face full of worry, wanting to come to the rescue.
"Shut up!"
However, Jiang Yunhe roared.
"Go to hell!"
He sacrificed a magic weapon, bombarding the demonic ape.
Boom!
Unfortunately, the demonic ape pointed out a finger, sending him flying.
Bang!
Jiang Yunhe landed, blood streaming from his mouth, his face pale.
Cracks covered his body, his bones completely shattered, his appearance extremely miserable.
If he hadn't circulated his true essence in time to protect his soul and sea of consciousness, he would have been reduced to ashes long ago.
This made his heart palpitate, and he finally understood the terror of this demonic ape.
At the same time, his heart was filled with sorrow, that his father and son were actually going to die at the hands of this demonic ape.
"Alas, so be it, my Jiang family has no one available, what's the point of leaving this Molten Flame Fruit behind?"
Jiang Yunhe sighed.
The Jiang Clan suffered the greatest losses in this trip to the ruins to seek medicine.
Apart from them, experts from other clans had fallen, and even five of the Jiang family's kings had fallen.
In recent years, the Jiang Clan had been declining, and now it had completely become a collateral branch.
Under such circumstances, Jiang Yunhe was unwilling to continue to take risks.
"Although the Molten Flame Fruit is good, life is more valuable."
With a thought, the Molten Flame Fruit disappeared from Jiang Yunhe's hand.
He took out a pill and swallowed it, adjusting his body and recovering from his injuries.
At the same time, he observed the demonic ape.
"Father, is the Molten Flame Fruit still on this demonic ape?"
Jiang Wang asked.
"It should be on this demonic ape."
Jiang Yunhe said, "This demonic ape is injured, we can just kill it."
"Hehe, although this demonic ape is strong, it is still an animal after all, with low intelligence.
As long as we are careful, we may not have a chance."
Jiang Wang said, his eyes revealing a fiery color.
The Molten Flame Fruit was a rare spiritual essence, hard to come by, who would miss it?
"Hopefully!"
Jiang Yunhe murmured.
