Chapter 136: The Powerful Gorilla
"No, I’m really..."
"Hmph, I’m not talking to you anymore."
Lin Wushuang stormed off angrily, and Chen Tianlong was shocked, quickly following her. After all, he really didn’t know where the gorilla had gone, and it was clearly dangerous for Lin Wushuang to run back alone at this time.
"Don’t follow me, I hate you!"
Lin Wushuang was clearly still angry, muttering in her heart.
Chen Tianlong actually made her do such embarrassing things just to satisfy his crooked ideas, even fooling her into thinking the air was toxic. What toxicity, really!
"Roar!"
Just as Lin Wushuang finished speaking, a loud roar sounded again, frightening her into a halt.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong also quickly caught up, grabbing Lin Wushuang’s hand without any explanation. In her panic, Lin Wushuang didn’t resist at all and instinctively held Chen Tianlong’s hand tightly.
Feeling Lin Wushuang’s grip, Chen Tianlong was relieved. It turned out this girl was just being stubborn with her words, she didn’t actually dislike him.
"Wushuang, let’s quickly retreat!"
Chen Tianlong was unsure he could take down the gorilla. After all, even Mo Shaoyun was subdued with just one move, and he might not last long either.
It was fine if he passed out, but what about Lin Wushuang, a girl? What if she got killed by the gorilla?
Upon hearing this, Lin Wushuang immediately started running alongside Chen Tianlong. But right then, a dark shadow darted from the entrance—a shadow that could be described as lightning-fast.
In no time, it leapt behind them, just two meters away, and jumped into the air preparing to pounce.
Seeing this, Chen Tianlong pushed Lin Wushuang forward and then threw three silver needles from his hand, followed by a punch with all his might.
This time, he used all his strength, the greatest of his life.
Boom!
With a muffled sound, without a doubt, Chen Tianlong was sent flying backward. It wasn’t as bad as Mo Shaoyun’s previous experience; he didn’t hit the stone wall but landed about three meters away.
He felt a sharp pain in his shoulder and suddenly turned back to see bloodstains and clear claw marks on his right arm, left by the little stars.
"Chen Tianlong!"
Lin Wushuang shouted loudly, attempting to run over.
At this point, Chen Tianlong was alarmed and hurriedly shouted, "Wushuang, don’t come over, run into the cave quickly!"
"No!"
Lin Wushuang, seeing blood gushing from Chen Tianlong’s arm, nearly burst into tears and wouldn’t listen.
"Wushuang, listen, or we’ll both die. This gorilla is inhumane."
Just after Chen Tianlong finished speaking, the gorilla pounced again.
Lin Wushuang widened her eyes, frozen in place.
At that moment, she seemed to hear the sound of her heart breaking, like a child about to lose a beloved toy, a twinge of coolness, a twinge of pain.
Seeing this, Chen Tianlong reacted swiftly, slamming the ground with a powerful hit, causing his body to spring up. Meanwhile, a dagger, gleaming coldly, appeared in his hand, which he had taken from his waist pouch.
"Die!"
Chen Tianlong charged at the gorilla like lightning, but he wasn’t intending to engage in a head-on battle; he didn’t want to die.
Instead, Chen Tianlong brushed past the gorilla, and the sharp dagger had already slashed across the gorilla’s abdomen. A few drops of fresh blood splashed onto his arm.
"Oow... Roar!"
Clearly, the gorilla was startled by the injury, utterly shocked that an ordinary human had hurt it, with blood gushing from its abdomen.
Enraged, the gorilla began a fierce attack, and Chen Tianlong, frustrated, kept dodging. The final pounce caught Chen Tianlong off guard, grabbing hold of him.
But this wasn’t the end; Chen Tianlong was inherently strong, and with the special training from his three masters, he was even more powerful.
After being caught by the gorilla, he didn’t give up resisting but continued to struggle with it for a while.
"Hiss!"
Chen Tianlong’s dagger stabbed again into the gorilla’s arm, fresh blood flowing onto his right arm while his wound’s bleeding stopped.
The blood of both mixed, emitting a sizzling sound, as if a chemical reaction occurred, causing Chen Tianlong to suddenly feel tremendous pain, urgently stabbing the dagger into the gorilla’s other arm.
"Roar!"
In pain, the gorilla roared and hurriedly released Chen Tianlong. Seizing the opportunity, Chen Tianlong rolled twice and quickly got up.
After thrashing about for a while, the gorilla quickly regained its composure.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong clearly felt something different. The gorilla’s body was in a berserk state, radiating an innate, irresistible power.
Powerful Qi!
This gorilla truly was a spirit beast!
Chen Tianlong widened his eyes, realizing there wasn’t enough time to escape now.
Indeed, in the blink of an eye, the gorilla charged in front of him. Chen Tianlong had no choice but to use his ultimate move.
Absorption Technique!
This move never failed, though Chen Tianlong always felt that the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique taught by his master wasn’t complete. It likely had more to it, as each time he reached the end, he felt unfinished.
The gorilla wasn’t aware of Chen Tianlong’s move, instead angrily swatting its hand at him.
But the next moment, the gorilla froze.
It found that its claw, when touching this kid’s arm, stopped and seemed magnetically stuck, causing its whole body to twitch immediately.
While a spirit beast, it wasn’t particularly advanced, lacking intelligence.
So the gorilla didn’t immediately let go of its claw, instead staring blankly at this incredible scene.
Chen Tianlong’s body continuously absorbed the powerful Qi from the gorilla, feeling a strong airflow churning inside him, yet it didn’t belong to him.
"Hmm!"
The gorilla collapsed limply on the ground but still exuded a commanding presence.
Seeing this, Chen Tianlong didn’t quite understand why, but the situation appeared much more optimistic. He quickly turned around, grabbing the dumbfounded Lin Wushuang and ran toward another cave entrance.
The path was blocked by the gorilla, so he dared not go ahead, especially since Chen Tianlong himself wasn’t sure of the situation.
Lin Wushuang, being pulled by Chen Tianlong, ran urgently along without caring where they were going.
The two ran for about five minutes before stopping, and the gorilla was nowhere in sight.
However, when they looked up again, they saw clouds swirling around the mountain ravine, completely unsure of the place, obviously lost.
Chen Tianlong thought of his phone, hastily took it out to see almost no signal, with a cross on the phone signal indicator.
"Chen Tianlong, are we unable to return?"
Lin Wushuang was a bit worried; at this moment, the unruly spirit of the young lady had vanished.
Chen Tianlong shrugged; he couldn’t answer either. After all, the area was covered with swirling clouds and fog, no signal, like they had entered an Immortal Realm.
Suddenly, a ray of sunset slanted across the mountains, as the clouds dispersed, revealing such a scene.
