I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

"Roar, roar, roar!"

More than ten spiritual apes gathered, attacking Gu Yuan together, initially forming a situation of many against one.

But in the face of the Cloud-Walking Seal, they were instantly broken.

The vast fog obscured the sky, suppressing the spiritual senses and five senses of all the apes.

Even though their tribe was right beside them, all they could see was the dense fog, with not a single ape in sight; they couldn’t even hear their own roars.

Panic spread in the hearts of the apes.

"Boom!"

At this moment, above the fog, electric light flashed, and a golden-backed ape was stunned by the overwhelming lightning, falling unconscious in the fog.

"Roar!"

The leading golden-backed ape felt intense unease, with its golden fur shining brightly like liquid flowing. Its body suddenly inflated, surging with qi power, and it let out a fierce roar at the fog.

The sound waves shook the sky, stirring up billowing soundwaves that blew away a corner of the fog.

But that was all it could do.

"Swoosh!"

The Three Declines Treasure Mirror flew across the sky, its silver light shining on the silverback ape, causing its previously expanding body to shrink again, with its qi power greatly reduced and its demonic power suppressed.

Meanwhile, an overwhelming amount of evil sand swept in, wearing down its body, causing it to bleed profusely in an instant, suffering greatly.

"Rustle, rustle!"

The remaining silverback apes were even more helpless, falling one by one to the scorching Flame Flood Dragon and the Ice Chain without even catching a glimpse of Gu Yuan.

In just a few breaths, the fog dispersed.

Inside the cave mansion, Gu Yuan stood in the distance with his hands behind his back, his large sleeves fluttering, appearing graceful and composed.

A group of apes lay on the ground, but they were not dead, just injured and unconscious.

Yet, Gu Yuan did not take the spirit stones and leave immediately, but raised his head to look at the rolling waterfall in front of him.

After breaking through to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, Gu Yuan’s spiritual sense had grown considerably. Earlier, when that golden-backed ape was negotiating with him, its ears were perked up, clearly taking instructions from someone.

This meant that there was an even more formidable presence among the golden-backed apes, and it was nearby.

Gu Yuan didn’t know what the other party planned to do, but they would definitely appear.

Only after dealing with this last golden-backed ape could he safely enjoy the opportunity.

"Bang!"

At that moment, a tall shadow leapt from beyond the waterfall, landing in front of Gu Yuan.

The ferocious aura filled the entire cave mansion in an instant, causing Gu Yuan to furrow his brows, his eyes showing a wary expression.

It was a tall ape, similar in stature to the usual golden-backed ape, but the golden fur on its back was lush, forming a crescent that covered its entire back.

Not only that, its eyes constantly emitted a faint golden light, and more astonishingly, it had naturally dual pupils!

Qi Refining Ninth Layer!

This golden-backed ape had at least the strength of the Qi Refining Ninth Layer!

Crucially, on its back, it carried a small, white-haired old ape.

The old ape seemed to belong to the golden-backed ape tribe too, but was very aged, with the golden hair on its back having turned half-white.

Yet its eyes remained bright, looking at Gu Yuan with a gentle gaze, without any ferociousness.

"Roar!"

However, the dual-pupiled golden-backed ape was extremely irritable, seeing its fallen companions, a fierce light flashing in its eyes.

"Swoosh!"

With a leap, it crossed several meters and swung its fist towards Gu Yuan.

The demonic power accompanied by terrifying qi power seemed to tear through the air, and the enormous pressure of the fist made Gu Yuan’s scalp tingle.

This punch bore at least two hundred thousand jin of qi power.

"Cloud-Walking Skill!"

Gu Yuan opened his mouth and called forth the vast fog, trying to block the golden-backed ape in front.

But the golden-backed ape’s eyes shone with golden light, its dual pupils carrying a peculiar luster, seemingly seeing right through the fog, knowing Gu Yuan’s location, the golden fist continued unabated, heading straight for Gu Yuan’s face.

"Seal of Mount Yin!"

"Cyan Lotus Shield!"

Gu Yuan’s speed was extremely fast, instantly activating two protective dharma artifacts to shield himself.

"Purple Thunder Drill!"

"Three Declines Treasure Mirror!"

Moreover, atop Gu Yuan’s head, two top-grade dharma artifacts brought intense spiritual light, attacking the golden-backed ape.

"Roar!"

The golden-backed ape’s qi power was suppressed by the Three Declines Treasure Mirror, its qi blood seemingly wilting as well, while the electric light of the Purple Thunder Drill struck first, delivering a blow to the golden-backed ape.

The surging electric light was fierce and violent, yet the golden-backed ape radiated a strange golden light, as if clad in a golden armor, withstanding the electric light’s attack. It pressed forward, the golden fist still charging at Gu Yuan.

"Clang!"

But under the two top-grade dharma artifacts, it was ultimately suppressed, its fist power waning, although it caused the mountain shadow of the Seal of Mount Yin to ripple, it didn’t break through the defense.

"Roar!"

The golden-backed ape paused slightly, looking at the four top-grade dharma artifacts shining brilliantly above Gu Yuan’s head, displaying an indignant expression.

Top-grade dharma artifacts are the trump cards at the Qi Refining Stage, powerful enough to battle across levels; having one is already quite remarkable, let alone four?

It was sufficient to bridge the gap of an entire realm.

"Roar!"

The golden-backed ape pointed its golden finger at Gu Yuan in frustration, then spread its empty hands, letting out an angry roar.

It seemed to be saying: If you have the guts, remove your artifacts and fight me one-on-one!

But Gu Yuan was completely unmoved, the golden-backed ape in front of him exuded a fierce aura, its cultivation presumably reaching the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, without artifact support, there was absolutely no way he could contend with it.

Removing the artifacts, what a joke would that be?

Moreover, that white old ape was definitely no ordinary creature, giving Gu Yuan tremendous pressure.

"Buzz, buzz!"

With this thought, not only did Gu Yuan not remove the artifacts, he also simultaneously activated the Little Giant God Seal and Secret Essence Command Arrow.

At the same time, his mind engaged the Cold Rhinoceros Dragon Elephant Star Spirit, ready to transform at any moment.

"Roar!"

Seeing the Dao Patterns flickering in Gu Yuan’s palm, resembling boiling magma, continually gathering force in the Secret Essence Command Arrow, the golden-backed ape’s eyes showed a solemn look.

With the Little Giant God Seal empowering the Secret Essence Command Arrow, its power became even more terrifying, if the Dao Patterns fully coagulate, it would surely have an astonishing effect.

"Oh oh!!"

The golden-backed ape raised its head, looking at the old ape on its back, calling out very anxiously, with a hint of grievance in its tone.

The old ape hesitated for a moment, but eventually still nodded.

"Oh oh!"

The golden-backed ape was instantly overjoyed, turning its head to look at Gu Yuan, its eyes full of battling intent.

"Woo!"

"Bang bang!"

The golden-backed ape suddenly pummeled its chest, seemingly with golden-red liquid flowing from the fur on its body, it let out a howl like a wolf.

Every time it beat its chest, its body grew a bit, and eventually transformed into a golden giant ape several meters tall, its golden dual pupils were like sunlight, gleaming brightly.

"Whoosh!"

Not only that, the white old ape reached into its abdomen, pulling out a golden stick, tossing it to the golden-backed ape.

"Oh oh!"

The golden stick expanded with the wind, instantly growing to about a meter in size, grasped by the golden giant ape.

With the golden stick in hand, the giant ape was immediately filled with confidence, looking at the four dharma artifacts above Gu Yuan’s head, not with anger anymore, but with fighting spirit.

"Boom!"

It swung the stick, the overflowing qi power akin to a mountain descending, this strike bore at least three hundred fifty thousand jin of qi power.
