Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 211: Duel

The clash of opposing ice and fire magic powers triggered a violent explosion of magic power. Countless streams of colorful flames erupted from between the two clasped giant palms, causing the shockwaves of magic power to cover an area of hundreds of zhang in radius.

The pervasive crimson killing intent was completely washed away by the impact of the magic power, but the nearby emerald green trees remained motionless, seemingly unaffected by the magic power shockwaves.

After the flames dissipated and the magic power shockwaves subsided, the two giant palms slowly separated, revealing a flattened mass of flesh inside.

The opposing ice and fire magic powers caused the flesh to decay like mud, exhibiting both carbonization and crystallization.

The four-armed demon monkey examined the mass of flesh, a look of confusion appearing in its black and red eyes.

It wasn't strange to kill this little thing, but what was strange was that this mass of flesh looked peculiar!

Just as the four-armed demon monkey was contemplating whether to go and take a look, it sensed a faint fluctuation of magic power in the distance, which then disappeared.

While it was hesitating whether to go and investigate, it noticed that the mass of flesh in its hand had already turned into specks of light and completely dissipated.

The two small eyes of the four-armed demon monkey widened in astonishment. It had never encountered such a situation before...

Gao Xian, who was a thousand steps away, had already swiftly left while controlling the Qiankun Wheel.

Earlier, he had left a clone a thousand steps away, and with the concealment of the Shadowless Robe and his ability to attract the four-armed demon monkey's divine sense, he easily deceived the opponent's divine sense detection.

When Gao Xian realized the situation was not good, he switched places with the clone, letting the clone take the fatal blow for him.

Gao Xian still had one more clone, but he didn't want to fight anymore.

The strength of the four-armed demon monkey far exceeded his estimation, and it was better not to take risks. After all, it was a third-order Demonic Beast, and if his true body were to be hit by the opponent's ice and fire giant palms, he would surely die.

Having two clones to play around with was fine, but with only one clone left, he had to assess the risks. Who knew how powerful the four-armed demon monkey really was!

After coming out of the Voidfall Mountain, Yun Feiying had already become a little anxious waiting for Gao Xian.

She couldn't see what was happening deep inside the Voidfall Mountain, but she could sense the powerful fluctuations of magic power erupting from within. She was afraid that something might happen to Gao Xian!

Seeing Gao Xian flying out, Yun Feiying also breathed a sigh of relief. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. There's a troublesome Demonic Beast inside," Gao Xian said. "This Demonic Beast is dangerous, and I have to deal with it for Nanluo Fang."

He said to Yun Feiying, "The killing intent below is too heavy, and Fellow Daoist won't be able to help. You should go back to Nanluo Fang and wait for me. I estimate it will take me twenty to thirty days to return."

Yun Feiying hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn't persuade him. "Be careful then. I'll wait for you in Nanluo Fang."

"I'll escort you," Gao Xian said.

Gao Xian felt it was better to send Yun Feiying back to Nanluo Fang, both to ensure her safety and to kill some more Demonic Beasts along the way.

Since he was already here, he might as well handle things cleanly, especially since it didn't require much effort.

Gao Xian and Yun Feiying returned along the original path of the death qi, and sure enough, they encountered several second-order Demonic Beasts along the way.

This time, Gao Xian gave Yun Feiying the opportunity, as second-order Demonic Beasts were quite valuable, and he couldn't monopolize them all.

Under his care, Yun Feiying obtained several second-order Demonic Beast crystal cores, as well as some Demonic Beast meat and skin, making for a fruitful harvest.

Yun Feiying naturally knew that Gao Xian had deliberately taken care of her, which naturally made her feel more harmonious and close to Gao Xian.

Gao Xian, of course, also noticed this subtle change in their relationship, which was exactly his intention.

Gao Xian's concern for Yun Feiying wasn't because he wanted to pursue her romantically, but rather to prevent her from speaking out of turn. At least, he didn't want her to report anything indiscriminately.

Originally, he just wanted to complete the mission and wasn't afraid of Yun Feiying reporting him. But now that the matter with the four-armed demon monkey had arisen, he hoped that Yun Feiying could help him keep it a secret, or at least not speak out of turn.

The underlying thoughts behind this were quite practical, and Gao Xian knew that he was just an ordinary person who only thought of getting close to others when he needed something...

After sending Yun Feiying back to Nanluo Fang, Gao Xian returned to the Voidfall Mountain overnight.

After coming and going for more than a day, the second clone reformed.

Gao Xian now had two clones as a backup and was confident in fighting the four-armed monkey again.

The four-armed demon monkey squatting on the big tree looked at Gao Xian in front of it with a puzzled expression on its hairy face. But then it suddenly realized something and pointed at Gao Xian, making two strange cries.

The monkey's voice was sharp and unpleasant, full of vigor, and the sound kept spreading in the vast underground space.

Gao Xian couldn't understand what the monkey was saying, but judging from its expression, it seemed like it was cursing or scolding him.

He smiled slightly at the four-armed monkey and said, "Brother Monkey, I'm here again. Please enlighten me."

The Flame Bullet and Ice Arrow spells were too restrained, so Gao Xian started with the Sun Spear.

As his Divine Sense improved, the power of the Sun Spear also increased significantly.

Second-stage cultivators paid great attention to protecting their own souls. At the second stage, it was difficult for spells that attacked the soul to be effective, and they would instead expose one's attacking intentions due to fluctuations in Divine Sense.

When fighting against second-stage cultivators, Gao Xian rarely used the Sun Spear as a starting move unless it could specifically counter the opponent, such as Devil Cultivators or evil spirits.

Although the four-armed monkey was a Demonic Beast with a strong and condensed soul and powerful magic power, it had a fundamental difference from Devil Cultivators who practiced dark arts.

Gao Xian used the Sun Spear as a starting move just to test the strength of the four-armed monkey's soul.

As expected, the invisible golden-red spear fell on the monkey's soul, but it didn't cause any substantial damage. It only aroused the monkey's ferocity.

Strange lights flickered in the monkey's black and red pupils. It howled and activated the Cold Sun Qi, which was the integration of the Profound Ice Qi and the Fierce Sun Qi. It was also its most powerful innate Divine Ability.

A weak thing provoking it repeatedly made the monkey unable to bear it, and it didn't need to bear it either.

The Cold Sun Qi appeared white and red, much like the rising sun.

The four-armed monkey, enveloped in the white and red spiritual light, leaped onto Gao Xian's head in an instant. It activated the Cold Sun Qi in its hand, condensing it into a large stick about ten feet long, and fiercely smashed it towards Gao Xian's head.

The four-armed monkey's leaping speed was surprisingly fast, crossing a hundred feet of space in an instant. The stick formed by the Cold Sun Qi in its hand was even more domineering. When it smashed down, the void seemed to tremble as if it had been shattered.

"Speed of five hundred feet per breath, the stick condensed by the Qi becomes even more solid and powerful, the power of the Qi has increased by more than three times!"

In the instant when the monkey leaped high, Gao Xian's powerful Divine Sense had already made various assessments of the monkey. He realized that the monkey wasn't as fast as him when he fully exerted himself, which was good news.

Of course, this speed might not be the monkey's limit.

Next, he would test how strong the monkey's strength really was!

Gao Xian could use the Qiankun Wheel and the Electric Light Ring to retreat, but it was unnecessary.

He had to have a comprehensive understanding of the monkey in order to find an opportunity to deal with it. Only through intense combat could he truly discover the problem.

In Gao Xian's sea of consciousness, three Vajra Law Manifestations appeared, and at the same time, a five-foot-long Vajra staff condensed in his hand.

Under the control of the Vajra Law Manifestation, his Divine Sense, magic power, and body all converged on the five-foot Vajra staff.

Gao Xian had various secret techniques in his hands. If we were to talk about unparalleled sharpness, it would be the Qinglian Feihong Sword. If we were to talk about agility and speed, it would be the Ice Arrow and Flame Bullet. If we were to talk about strength and power, it would be the Vajra staff.

His powerful Divine Sense, comparable to a Gold Core cultivator, and his body that surpassed the peak of Body Refining and Foundation Building, all merged into the Vajra staff at this moment.

Facing the thunderous Qi staff, Gao Xian's five-foot Vajra staff fiercely clashed with it.

The anger in the four-armed monkey's eyes grew stronger. How dare such a small thing confront it head-on? It was seeking death!

It held the Cold Sun Qi-condensed staff with all four arms and added even more magic power.

The Qi staff and the Vajra staff collided, creating a tremendous roar. The Qi staff was momentarily shaken by the unmatched and fierce power, while the Vajra staff was instantly shattered.

Unparalleled magic power transmitted to Gao Xian, and his body burst open like a blooming firework, scattering flesh and blood.

The paused Qi staff continued to fall, smashing Gao Xian's body into pieces.

The residual force of this strike broke through layer after layer of mud, leaving behind a huge pit seven or eight zhang deep.

The splattered mud flew up over a hundred zhang high and then fell like rain.

The four-armed demon monkey held the Cold Sun Qi Staff and looked at the deep pit beneath its feet, a hint of doubt appearing in its black and red eyes.

With this strike, it had beaten the opponent into a pulp, but for some reason, it felt like the opponent hadn't died!

As expected by the four-armed demon monkey, the next day it saw that detestable little thing again!

This time, Gao Xian was even more polite. He cupped his hands from a distance and greeted, "Brother Monkey, please enlighten me."

In yesterday's battle, Gao Xian realized the gap between him and the monkey, with a significant difference in actual strength.

Even if he exerted all his effort, he could only survive a few tenths of a second under the monkey's staff.

Indeed, despite being a Demonic Beast, the monkey's strength was truly at the third rank, without any falsehood.

In terms of raw magic power, the monkey should be stronger than Yun Taihao.

This battle also made Gao Xian realize that there was no chance in a head-on fight; he was far inferior to the Gold Core in terms of strength.

Gao Xian had gained two more points of respect for this monkey. As a monkey brother, it didn't have much intelligence, yet it could cultivate to such a level, truly impressive.

When the monkey saw Gao Xian again, it showed a complex emotion, a bit of confusion, anger, and hesitation.

This little thing didn't have much strength, but it was somewhat troublesome, which inevitably made the monkey wonder.

This time, Gao Xian drew the Qinglian Sword. After several tests, he knew that he could only kill this monkey with the Qinglian Feihong Sword, and there was no chance with other spells or magical items.

Engaging in close combat with Demonic Beasts increased the risk tenfold.

Gao Xian also had two clones, which allowed him to engage in close combat with the monkey.

When the monkey saw Gao Xian draw his sword, it immediately urged the Cold Sun Qi to meet him, swinging its staff at Gao Xian.

But this time, Gao Xian didn't directly confront it. He used his sword to activate the Qiankun Wheel, circling around the monkey's figure.

The advantage of the Qiankun Wheel's high-speed movement was truly brought into play. The platinum wheel spun, and Gao Xian had already avoided the Cold Sun Qi and circled behind the monkey.

The monkey reacted quickly and, relying on the advantage of its four arms, didn't turn around, but its staff continued to chase after Gao Xian's figure.

Gao Xian controlled the Qiankun Wheel to shoot forward, narrowly avoiding the sweeping staff.

Before the monkey could retract its staff, Gao Xian had already circled around and returned.

This fast and agile evasive technique made the four-armed monkey somewhat helpless. It continuously swung its staff, but it couldn't touch Gao Xian at all.

After fighting with Gao Xian for a while, the monkey couldn't bear this one-sided pursuit with no effect. It frantically urged the Profound Ice Qi.

A fierce cold instantly spread within a hundred zhang, and although Gao Xian controlled the Qiankun Wheel to move quickly, he couldn't avoid such a large area of Profound Ice Qi, causing his speed to inevitably slow down.

Seizing the opportunity, the monkey leaped onto Gao Xian's head and smashed him into a pulp with a single strike.

But it soon realized something was wrong. There were faint fluctuations of Divine Sense and magic power a thousand steps away. By the time it crazily caught up, the rippling magic power had already disappeared without a trace.

On the third day, Gao Xian came to find the demon monkey very punctually. After a series of battles, Gao Xian still couldn't avoid the Profound Ice Qi and was hammered to death by the monkey.

For more than twenty days after that, Gao Xian came to fight the four-armed demon monkey every day.

As he gradually became familiar with the monkey, the tricks the monkey often used became ineffective against him.

Initially, Gao Xian could hold on for about ten breaths, but after a few days, he could last for the time it took to brew a pot of tea, and after a few more days, he could last for the time it took to burn an incense stick...

After nearly a month of torment, as long as Gao Xian didn't take any risks, the four-armed demon monkey could hardly do anything to him.

The main reason was that the Qiankun Wheel was too fast. The monkey's leaping through the void technique was also quite formidable, but it had a wind-up.

When Gao Xian saw the monkey preparing to leap through the void, he immediately changed his position, not giving the monkey a chance to catch him.

The intensity of their Divine Sense was about the same, but Gao Xian's Divine Sense skills were superior and far surpassed the monkey. As long as he didn't want to, the monkey would never be able to catch him.

Gao Xian deliberately tried to snatch the green peach to test whether the monkey was using all its strength.

Sure enough, the monkey, stimulated intensely, went crazy. Its body split into two, transforming into the Xuanbing Staff and the Lieyang Staff, and its body suddenly grew more than ten times longer.

In this state, the monkey's magic power increased greatly, and its speed also became much faster.

Gao Xian couldn't withstand three moves and was smashed by a staff.

Afterwards, Gao Xian continued to stimulate the monkey several times in a row, finally confirming that the monkey had no other divine abilities.

Every time the monkey transformed, it consumed a large amount of blood essence. After the battle, it would become extremely exhausted.

Seeing this, Gao Xian changed his strategy to fighting twice a day, exhausting both of his clones.

This was more dangerous, but it greatly depleted the monkey's original blood essence.

After more than ten days of torment, the monkey's eyes became dim, and even its fur became dry and lifeless.

It was clear that even such a huge consumption was too much for it to bear.

On this day, when the four-armed monkey saw Gao Xian again, its eyes were already filled with exhaustion. It quietly squatted on the tree, looking at Gao Xian, and made two weak calls, its voice filled with weakness.

Gao Xian didn't know what the four-armed monkey was saying, nor did he care about what it said.

If the four-armed monkey was truly intelligent, it should have dropped the spiritual object and left. He couldn't stop the other party anyway.

If the monkey insisted on guarding the peach, then he couldn't blame him for being ruthless.

Gao Xian drew his sword and pointed at the four-armed monkey, and the monkey let out a sharp roar and leaped towards him.

After a brief entanglement, the four-armed monkey suddenly transformed and leaped, striking with a staff and smashing half of Gao Xian's body.

This was something Gao Xian had barely managed to avoid after multiple battles, which allowed him to retain a small portion of his body.

This was also the key to his plan!

At the same time, Gao Xian had already switched his clone and directly attacked the four-armed monkey head-on with his sword.

The four-armed monkey gritted its teeth and swung the ice and fire staffs, and under the clash of the staffs, Gao Xian burst into a mist of blood.

The four-armed monkey, who had been continuously using transformation techniques, couldn't hold on anymore. Its body instantly deflated back to its original form.

With its experience, the battle should have ended here!

However, Gao Xian used the substitution clone technique for the first time in front of the four-armed monkey after so many battles.

The monkey was completely unprepared for this, and by the time it sensed something was wrong, Gao Xian had already completed the displacement and instantly activated the Electric Light Halo, increasing his speed to six hundred zhang per breath.

That was equivalent to the speed of a sniper rifle bullet leaving the barrel at nine hundred meters per second.

The distance between the two sides was only forty steps, which was sixty meters. In less than a tenth of a second, Gao Xian, wielding the Qinglian Flying Rainbow Sword, had already passed by the monkey.

The four-armed monkey hurriedly activated the Han Yang Gang Qi to protect itself, and instantly, a strong white and red light swept across an area of several dozen zhang.

It had calculated Gao Xian's speed correctly, and this strike could hit Gao Xian directly, but it didn't expect that Gao Xian would activate the Invisible Robe, causing him to disappear instantly.

The Han Yang Gang Qi destroyed the invisible state of the Invisible Robe, bringing Gao Xian back to reality, but it also allowed him to avoid the most powerful edge of the Han Yang Gang Qi.

Gao Xian activated the Sword Intent of Spring Wind and Rain, and the green Sword Ray transformed into a faint presence. At the same time, the nine-grade Qinglian Treasure Light on his body shone brightly, faintly resonating with the Sword Ray.

The two sides passed each other in an instant, with the four-armed monkey standing still and Gao Xian flying away on his sword. He flew until he was a hundred zhang away before turning around gracefully.

Gao Xian looked at the four-armed monkey a hundred zhang away, then looked at the shattered pieces of the nine-grade Qinglian Treasure Light on his body. His face turned pale as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

The four-armed monkey on the other side opened its mouth as if it wanted to roar, but before it could make a sound, the ugly monkey head had already tumbled down from its neck...
