The scene ahead was anticipated to be bloody. The purple monkeys, though small in stature, had sharp nails that gleamed menacingly with cold light whenever their fangs were bared. It was clear that they could effortlessly tear through thick, tough skin.
“There aren’t many boars, and they’re not as agile as the monkeys. Looks like we might have to deal with a troublesome situation here,” Dongfang Xinyue said as she and Pearl, along with Kong Baolings, could see the situation outside.
Dozens of thousands of purple monkeys were perched on trees, encircling the boars with their sharp fangs bared and fierce yells echoing around. The group of wild boars grunted in response, emitting terrifying purple light from their sharp teeth. It was evident that the wild boar’s combat strength was high, even though they only numbered around fifty thousand.
Scimit was hidden above, unseen by the purple monkeys and wild boars below him. They were too preoccupied with their battle cries and didn’t bother about other matters.
The impending conflict had not yet started, as both sides were boosting their might through battle cries!
Suddenly, a tall man clad in purple armor appeared, wielding a long purple spear. He raised the spear high into the air and roared loudly enough to shake the large purple leaves surrounding him. The mighty trees swayed slightly, and his presence was very powerful.
“This must be the monkey king, their real strength is indeed impressive.” Scimit frowned. He had initially planned to get some advantages but realized that the kings of these beast tribes were all powerful individuals. Even if it was a battle between the Lightning Emperor Dragon Emperor and such creatures, they would not easily cause conflict.
The wild boar king also appeared, a middle-aged giant dressed in purple armor. Although the monkey king was already impressive with his imposing stature, this wild boar king stood two heads taller than him. His weapon was also very majestic—a giant sword as wide as a door, emitting flashy purple light and killing intent. It was evident that many lives had been cut by this massive sword.
Two beast kings appeared, their killing intent soaring high. A massive battle was inevitable!
“Kill!” The wild boar king roared first, followed by the monkey king’s loud shout. Then they both transformed into streaks of purple light and rushed towards the sky, engaging in battle with each other. The wild boar king also followed suit, flying up to the sky and engaging in battle with the monkey king.
Within moments, a wave of energy pressed down from the sky as their battle started. As they clashed sharply below them, the purple monkeys and wild boars also started fighting fiercely together, producing endless screams. Blood and flesh flew everywhere amidst the purple forest, spreading an intense stench that was nauseating.
“Why are these guys fighting There aren’t enough resources for them to fight over here, they don’t need such meaningless battles.” Scimit frowned at the gruesome scenes of blood and guts. He shook his head in dismay.
“I once witnessed a similar slaughter when I met the Phoenix Ancestor, but it wasn’t so large-scale. Both sides numbered around thirty thousand,” Dongfang Xinyue said. The Phoenix Ancestor was once curious about this behavior but later found out that most of the beast kings here were battle-hardened. The beasts in this area could grow into sacred creatures relatively easily, but they faced a plateau after becoming sacred.
“Although this only happens in the Purple Leaf Forest, many of these sacred creatures are ambitious. They must have discovered ways to break through their bottleneck!” Scimit said.
Dongfang Xinyue nodded. “Correct, it’s all about consuming flesh and blood. However, not every consumption is effective; only during specific periods does it work. This must be a cycle where, when the time comes, these sacred creatures would gather on their own and then engage in battles under the command of the beast kings.”
Long Xueyi added, “If that’s the case, those who survive this period would be those who consume the most flesh and have the strongest strength!”
Scimit noticed several fiercely aggressive purple monkeys, who looked just as formidable despite appearing similar to other purple monkeys. He could easily tell from their actions.
“This is a great opportunity. These guys only consume flesh and must have many beast souls!” Long Xueyi said.
Scimit had been paying attention since the beginning, but he didn’t want to start fighting yet as it might attract the attention of the beast kings. However, he had covertly used his powerful and invisible spirit force with the help of Soul Capturing魔咒’s techniques, releasing a ‘Soul Banishment Spell’ that covered the battlefield. This ensured that none of these beast souls would enter hell but would remain here, allowing for easy collection.
“We can start now. The beast kings are battling fiercely, and they’ve moved away from here,” Long Xueyi said.
Scimit started consuming the drifting beast souls around him quickly, like how he would absorb sacred spirits. He absorbed them into his spirit sea and placed them within his divine core, using the divine core to expedite their assimilation.
The beast souls here were exceptionally powerful and pure, much better than the demons in hell. One thousand beast souls could easily surpass ten thousand demons!
The battle lasted all day, resulting in the deaths of around seventy thousand purple monkeys and wild boars. Neither beast king could claim a victory, as both sides retreated after the battle. Scimit’s gains were substantial; with such numerous beast souls, his divine spirit was rapidly strengthened. He felt that if he stayed longer here and found more battles of this sort, he might cultivate his divine spirit into a divine soul through such methods!
“What’s happening” Scimit suddenly sensed something amiss. He hurriedly used spatial force, instantly entering the Violent Space!
Just as he entered Violent Space, Scimit’s spirit remained in its place and saw a few people descending upon him. These were the familiar Lightning Emperor, Dragon Emperor, along with other sacred sages; Evil Emperor was not among them.
“These guys are always lingering around. Lucky for me, I narrowly avoided another capture,” Scimit sighed. He had to admit that this group made significant progress during their pursuit of him, especially in concealing their presence. If not for his keen awareness of spatial vibrations, he would have been trapped and faced a group of powerful enemies.
After his last experience being sealed in a space, Scimit now used both the awareness of aura and spatial vibrations to alert him. He could release an invisible spatial domain, from which he could detect any impact on space whenever someone stepped into it.
“Can’t stay here anymore” Scimit still wanted to remain in the Purple Leaf Forest as it provided him with many beast souls. However, Long Xueyi said, “Of course you can stay, but be cautious! The new Evil Emperor didn’t follow. I don’t know if he’s back or still here. If he's here, take care of this solitary guy for us—he possesses a great amount of demonic power and would be easier to deal with.”
Facing several divine masters, Scimit’s current strength was insufficient to handle them. However, dealing with a new Evil Emperor would still be manageable.d to take some pills for recovery when refining!""There are still more than twenty Golden Refinement Pills, should be sufficient for your recovery.
