Chapter 716 Lv. 52
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Xu Jingming found himself surrounded by three massive Giant Apes, who had blocked off all possible escape routes. They thought that the human was no match for their strength and had solely teamed up just to finish off their prey quickly.
“Die!” The tallest ape charged at him with ferocity, its sharp fingers tearing through the air—they were harder and sharper than any metal in the world.
The other two apes followed suit.
...
Whoosh!
But Xu Jingming didn’t wait for them to attack. He charged straight at the tallest ape.
“Haha, you’re a dead man.” The tall ape was excited to see Xu Jingming coming at him, but as he approached, Xu Jingming suddenly transformed into a giant divine bird, soaring through the air with a piercing cry.
With its wings spread, the divine bird turned into millions of phantoms. The tall ape couldn’t even see Xu Jingming’s true body clearly.
The first move of the Heart Divine Weapon Combat Technique—Thousand Shadows Flying Crane!
Thousand Shadows Flying Crane was Xu Jingming’s signature move, honed over years of practice. He used his body as a weapon, combining it with his psychic power to unleash his full combat potential.
“Watch out!” The black-furred ape and the thin ape, who had initially underestimated Xu Jingming, suddenly realized their mistake and shouted out a warning.
But it was too late. Their fighting was too fast for a warning to make a difference.
The tall ape fell into a daze for a moment as Xu Jingming appeared in front of it.
Huh? The tall ape was alarmed. Although it still couldn’t see Xu Jingming’s figure clearly, it kind of sensed that the human had arrived in front of its face.
It jolted in fright and instinctively swung its palms forward.
Giant Apes were generally between 10 to 20 meters tall, and the tall ape was clearly the tallest of the three Giant Apes—about 18 meters tall.
His head was larger than Xu Jingming’s entire body. His pair of huge furry palms were even larger.
With a wave of his palms, the air exploded and swept around.
Despite being only a fraction of the ape’s size, Xu Jingming was able to resist the air blast from the ape’s palm. He unleashed all his strength, his arms bulging with muscles as he struck the ape’s furry hand from the side.
Boom!
The tall ape felt a sharp pain as its right hand dislocated from the impact of Xu Jingming’s punch.
What strength! The ape’s heart raced. This human’s strength isn’t any less than mine!
As he slapped away the huge palm, Xu Jingming followed up with a stomp on the ape’s chest and charged toward its head like a cannonball.
The ape’s eyes widened, but its large head made it impossible to dodge.
Bam.
Xu Jingming’s fist connected with the ape’s forehead, carrying the force of his entire body.
The impact caused the ape’s forehead to cave in slightly, a testament to the potency of Xu Jingming’s punch.
The ape’s brain buzzed from the impact. It was overwhelmed by a cacophony of sounds in its head—Clang! Bang! Boom!—and lost all ability to resist.
As Xu Jingming’s punch landed, he raised his elbow, using the tip like a spear to stab into the depression in the ape’s forehead.
Crack! Boom!
The already fractured skull gave way completely, sending fur-stained bones flying and brain matter spilling out.
The tall ape’s eyes lost their luster, and it staggered a few steps before collapsing to the ground.
One of the three apes was dead in an instant.
This is Ape Demon Heart Piercing, Xu Jingming thought. It’s only fitting for a Giant Ape like you to die from this move.
Over the years, Xu Jingming had created the Heart Divine Weapon Combat Technique, but only two moves had been fully developed—Thousand Shadows Flying Crane and Ape Demon Heart Piercing.
Thousand Shadows Flying Crane allowed him to make use of the agility advantage of humans.
Xu Jingming surveyed the corpse of the tall ape and pondered, We’re both at Lv. 52, but you’re stronger and faster than me with your massive size. So why am I able to hold my own against you?
It’s because I’m more agile, and my body is more resilient, Xu Jingming thought to himself.
Indeed, there was a significant gap between a Lv. 52 human and a Lv. 52 Giant Ape.
In terms of strength, humans were only half as strong as Giant Apes at the same level, and their speed was only 80% of the Giant Apes’.
But despite their physical disparity—with Giant Apes being more than ten meters tall and Humans being less than two meters tall—all of that only gave a Giant Ape twice the strength of a Human. The density, hardness, and tenacity of a human body gave them an advantage in every aspect.
As small creatures, humans had an agility advantage, which placed them on the same level as the larger Giant Apes despite the strength and speed inferiority.
“Wh—”
The black-furred ape took a few steps back in shock and anger, while the thin ape’s eyes lit up with excitement. “If I’m not mistaken, your moves can affect our minds. You’re a high-dimensional lifeform from the Heart Realm lineage? Your mind-shaking combat strength at Lv. 52 makes you comparable to a Lv. 54!”
In combat, the ability to affect an opponent’s mind was a significant advantage.
If the tall ape hadn’t fallen into a daze, Xu Jingming would’ve had a much harder time defeating it.
“Heart Realm lineage?” Xu Jingming looked at the two Giant Apes warily. “No matter how strong I am outside, it doesn’t help me here.”
The thin ape smiled. “To reach Lv. 52 in just 100 years as a Human and be skilled in Heart Realm Force, you must be an impressive powerhouse in the outside world.”
Xu Jingming’s vigilance heightened. He sensed that the thin ape was much more dangerous than the others.
The mere aura it exuded was stronger than the other apes and made him tremble.
…
At a height of 10,000 meters, spherical monitors captured the ongoing battle.
“Three Giant Apes are chasing after a Human powerhouse.”
“A Human powerhouse is being surrounded? What’s going on?”
The upper echelons of the Hundred Flowers Elves watched the surveillance footage, which replayed the clash in slow motion.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Jingming had sent the tall ape’s head flying with just a few moves, killing the powerful Giant Ape.
“He successfully counter-attacked!”
“In the past three years, powerful species rarely ended up dead while attacking powerhouses from weaker species. But this time, he actually killed one.”
“This Human powerhouse is extraordinary. The outcome of this battle might be different. He may be able to finish off the remaining two Giant Apes.”
The Hundred Flowers Elves instinctively sided with Xu Jingming. After all, they too were a weak species and hoped to strike back at the powerful ones.
…
Xu Jingming remained clear-headed as he thought, I went all out without holding back to kill that tall ape. However, I know nothing about the strength of this thin ape.
Before the battle, his many Eternal clones in the outside world had already run through over 10,000 possibilities of this battle, formulating one plan after another.
Of the three apes, he only knew about the tall ape from watching its combat videos.
Powerful warriors had tenacious vitality and could quickly recover from serious injuries. Therefore, he had to seize the opportunity to completely kill one and weaken the other two apes’ overall strength. If he could intimidate them, it would be even better.
The thin ape grew even more excited. It clearly believes that its strength can completely suppress me. Xu Jingming anxiously thought of a solution.
The thin ape was very relaxed.
Having accumulated experience in the outside world and being born into the Giant Ape race, the thin ape’s strength increased much faster than the other two apes.
“Kamaya, stay away. You’re no match for him,” the thin ape instructed the black-furred ape.
“Alright.” The black-furred ape immediately flew far away.
The thin ape looked at Xu Jingming calmly. “Use your full strength because this is… the last battle of your life.”
Xu Jingming’s expression remained unchanged as all his clones fused into one.
His strength and speed far exceeds those of the other two apes. The only chance of survival I have is to use my agility advantage.
I can only fight for a chance of survival in combat.
Xu Jingming’s figure moved.
As Xu Jingming moved, he appeared to be like a crane spreading its wings, his figure incomprehensible under the thousands of wing phantoms.
Humans are small. Even if his strength is a few levels higher than mine, his agility might not be comparable to mine. This is where my chance of survival lies! he thought, the reason for focusing his attention on the Thousand Shadows Flying Crane.
He used his advantage.
“Interesting.” Its furry palms swept over with strength far exceeding that of the tall ape, tearing through the air.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The immortal crane spread its wings, producing countless afterimages as Xu Jingming dodged the attacks from the huge furry palms. Although he was extremely agile, he found it difficult to get close to the thin ape as the palms acted like an impenetrable wall.
“I couldn’t touch you even with 30% of my strength,” the thin ape stated. “I’ll use 60% of my strength now.”
Just as he finished speaking, the furry palms suddenly increased in speed, making it hard for Xu Jingming to dodge them. He barely dodged one, only to be hit by the other furry palm.
Boom! Boom!
The impact sent a terrifying force through every part of Xu Jingming’s body, cratering his body and causing him to spew blood from his nose and ears.
His entire body was sent flying like a cannonball at a speed exceeding 10,000 meters per second.
Boom!
Xu Jingming’s body collided with a mountain, causing more than 50% of the mountain to turn into dust.
A huge circular crater appeared in the remaining half, and Xu Jingming’s body sank into the middle of the crater. He was in a daze, his consciousness fading.
Meanwhile, his many clones far away were extremely anxious.
Agility is useless.
His qualities far exceed mine in every aspect.
Moreover, his mind had shown no signs of going adrift when the Heart Divine Weapon Combat Technique was used. Clearly, my mental influence… is very weak on him.
What should I do? What should I do?
The clones were thinking rapidly.
…
Myriad Species World.
The thin ape rushed to the crater in the ruined mountain and looked down at Xu Jingming with a ferocious smile. It mercilessly smashed its huge fists at the latter, declaring, “It’s over! You’re finished!”
