Chapter 102: The King Has Told Me to Patrol the Mountain

Luo Ziping went pale with fright when he heard this.

Have him kill the monkey king? Are you sure that it wasn’t having the monkey king kill him?

“Hahaha! I’m just kidding! Why are you so nervous?”

Seeing Luo Ziping’s reaction, An Lin laughed giddily.

He had simply wanted to make the atmosphere more lively. Who knew that Luo Ziping would take it so seriously?

“Phew… Big Brother An, you should’ve said so earlier. Can you not frighten me like that? My little heart can’t take it!” Luo Ziping patted his muscular chest, a lingering expression of fear on his face.

His other three teammates sighed in disappointment.

What a pity, why was it just a joke…

“Heh, fellow cultivator An Lin is so humorous,” the brawny male grinned stiffly.

Seeing the forced smile on his face, An Lin felt a bit dejected. Could it be that he had failed to make the atmosphere more lively?

…

After resting for a while, they headed off toward the spirit mountain that the brawny male spoke of.

After some introductions, An Lin learned that this brawny, hide-dressed male was called Xue Zhuoming. He was the leader of this hunting group and had a rank of the Tenth Stage Dao Body.

Originally, this hunting group had twenty members. In Ding’an City, this could be considered a powerful hunting group.

Unfortunately, they came across a large group of gigantic mosquitoes. Their hunting group suffered heavy losses, and there were now only six members remaining.

The remaining members of the group were still grieving the deaths of their companions, and as a result, didn’t speak much on their journey.

The spirit mountain was located in the depths of the swampland. This swampland was a natural barrier which put a halt to many cultivators’ footsteps, and it was because of this that the immortal fruits could grow without any problems.

…

At the foot of the spirit mountain, a sword-wielding monkey was gleefully singing. “The king has told me to patrol the mountain~ Around the mortal world I’ll go and wander~ I’ll beat my drum~ I’ll beat my gong~ Life is full of rhythm and flow! The king has told me to patrol the mountain~ Snatch a monk and cook him into dinner~”

Then…

The monkey saw a group of brawny men suddenly appear. They encircled him, a menacing smile on their faces.

After being encircled, the monkey showed no signs of being afraid. Instead, it brandished the sword in its hand and struck a magnificent pose.

“Hi-yah! Where are you evil monsters from? How dare you wander wantonly into the Mountain of Fruits and Flowers!”

An Lin walked over, and a shimmer of gold flashed across his eyes. Divine Might—Activate!

Then, the monkey started to tremble. There was a look of terror on its face, and it was as if it had seen something mighty and imposing.

Plop!

Dropping to its knees, the monkey yelled. “Y-y-y-your Excellency, I beg you to please spare my life!”

An Lin cleared his throat. “I can indeed spare you. But first, tell me everything you know about the Mountain of Fruits and Flowers.”

There was a conflicted look on the monkey’s face. However, after seeing another shimmer of gold flash across An Lin’s eyes, it was absolutely terrified, so much so that it gushed out everything it knew.

Seeing the monkey spew its guts after being glared at by An Lin, the members of the hunting group were absolutely astonished. When they looked at An Lin now, there was an additional hint of admiration in their eyes.

Only the four members of his team found this to be normal and expected. Big Brother An could even slaughter beings of the Return to Void Stage, this kind of trick was nothing to be surprised about.

When they finished gathering intelligence, they knocked the monkey out cold.

“We can’t wait any longer, we have to go over now!” Xue Zhuoming had a look of urgency.

They received a very alarming piece of information. That was, the immortal fruits were about to be eaten!

Today, the Great Ox King arrived at the Mountain of Fruits and Flowers. He was going to enjoy the immortal fruits together with the Ugly Monkey King!

Everyone nodded solemnly. They couldn’t allow the immortal fruits to be ripped from their grasp.

The vital energy atop the Mountain of Fruits and Flowers was rich and dense. This was indeed a spirit mountain which had been blessed by the Heavens and Earth.

Monkey soldiers and monkey generals stood guard at all of the key paths on the mountain. However, Xue Zhuoming knew of a deserted path that the monkeys scarcely appeared on. When entering the mountain for the first time, it was also this path that they took.

Next to a waterfall, there grew a tree whose trunk was as red as carnelian stone. With luscious leaves and green branches, it appeared like a mini jade tree.

On the tree, there hung nine scarlet fruits. Right now, they were swaying with the wind, appearing extremely enchanting and tempting.

This was the Mysterious Azure Spirit Blood Tree, along with its nine immortal fruits.

“Hahaha! My good brother, who knew that these immortal fruits would ripen so quickly. When we eat these fruits, our cultivation base will definitely increase by leaps and bounds!” The ox, which had two pitch-black horns on his head and a pair of crystal-clear eyes, chortled heartily.

“Hehe, the effects of ingesting immortal fruits are far from just this,” the monkey grinned. “If we’re lucky, we might even awaken divine abilities!” This monkey was suited in golden armor and appeared mighty and strong.

His face was filled with freckles, and his eyes were gold. They were large and bright, like a pair of massive light bulbs.

His nose was upturned, and his mouth was especially large. He also had a huge bum-chin. All in all, he was… very ugly!

As expected of the self-proclaimed Ugly Monkey King.

“However, as we’ve agreed on, we can only eat half an immortal fruit each right now,” the Ugly Monkey King said.

The Great Ox King had a look of hesitation. “But I’ve also called the Silver Winged King and the Giant Lotus Demon Frog over. I’m afraid that one immortal fruit isn’t enough…”

The Ugly Monkey King was stunned. Then, his surprise turned into anger. “Why on earth did you call them over? Didn’t I tell you to keep this a secret from other beasts?!”

“But my good brother, I’ve done some calculations,” the Great Ox King chuckled. “If I share with you, I’ll only be able to eat half an immortal fruit. However, if I share with the Silver Winged King and Giant Lotus Demon Frog, then we’ll be able to enjoy three each!”

The Ugly Monkey King stared dazedly at the Great Ox King. How could he not know what this comment meant?

What shocked him most was not that his immortal fruits were about to be stolen by other Spirit Beasts, rather, it was the fact that he was betrayed by his most trusted brother!

Boom!

The sounds of battle and cries of monkeys traveled over from the mountain foot, proving what the Great Ox King had just said.

“Stinky cow, I definitely won’t let you off!” the Ugly Monkey King roared. A silver staff materialized in his hands, and he smashed it down toward the Great Ox King.

The Great Ox King sneered and whipped out metal staff.

Both of them were very powerful, and the shockwaves of their battle swept outwards, whipping up clouds of sand and stone.

Right at this moment, a gigantic silver eagle soared up onto the spirit mountain. Gusts of strong winds swept down as it flapped its wings, and the spirit monkeys were all blown off their feet.

A gigantic black frog which stood thirty feet tall also appeared at the foot of the mountain.

The earth would tremor violently every time it tensed its hind legs, and with every leap, it was able to cover hundreds of meters. Countless spirit monkeys were injured or killed by its gigantic feet.

The Silver Winged King and the Giant Lotus Demon Frog had both arrived. They were extremely powerful Spirit Beasts; how could ordinary spirit monkeys stop their advance?

Soon, these two Spirit Beasts also arrived at the Ugly Monkey King’s battleground.

They shifted into human shape and walked toward the Mysterious Azure Spirit Blood Tree.

“Big Brother Ox, I’ll pluck these Mysterious Blood Immortal Fruits first,” the Silver Winged King said. “We’ll share them later.”

“You dare?!” The Ugly Monkey King howled and angrily smashed his silver staff toward the silver-skinned male.

However, his attack was parried by the sneering Great Ox King, who blocked off his path.

To the side, the Giant Lotus Demon Frog continuously repelled the monkey soldiers who were rushing over. His eyes glowing brightly, the Silver Winged King walked toward the Mysterious Azure Spirit Blood Tree, his hands grabbing at the Mysterious Blood Immortal Fruits.

Right at this moment, a golden fist suddenly appeared before him.

The Silver Winged King was startled, and he raised his palm to catch this blow.

Boom!

The Silver Winged King was forced back two steps by the powerful strike. His expression changed drastically, and he howled, “Who is it?!”

“Hehe, I’m so sorry, these immortal fruits are ours!”

An Lin dashed toward the Silver Winged King.

Behind him, the ten or so members of his group also released their powerful auras and pounced toward the Silver Winged King!
