Chapter 24: Really Good Stuff
All kinds of signs show that the cultivation age of this thousand-year-old fiery ape is very suspicious!
First of all, it was very unusual for such a soul beast that was close to five thousand years old to still stay in the outer area.
Although the Volcanic Landform Area was of great benefit to the cultivation of fire-attribute soul beasts, once they reached more than three thousand years later, it was still a mixed area with strong soul power that would be more beneficial to them.
Secondly, the number of members of the fiery ape group where it belonged did not exceed a hundred, and the strongest person other than it was only a five-hundred-year-old soul beast, how could such a weak group give birth to a five-thousand-year-old soul beast that was so different from their strength?
Thirdly, it was not afraid of the things that Ye Xi had seen in its heart when he cast his illusions, which indicated that its strength was probably even stronger than the creatures it had feared in the past.
Finally, and most intuitively.
When the thousand-year-old fiery ape emerged from the cave in the valley, the cave was not large enough for it to drill out, so it forcibly smashed the walls of the cave around it.
This may indicate that it was not as large as it is before entering the cavern!
"There's probably something good in that hole!"
Ye Xi judged excitedly.
Each of these suspicions may actually be a coincidence, or even have loopholes, but when they appear on a soul beast at the same time, there must be something wrong with this soul beast!
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm agreed: "Your guess is very reasonable, judging from the experience of this million-year soul beast, this fiery ape probably ate some kind of heavenly and earthly treasure to grow like this in a short period of time.
There is another suspicion that you can't see, the strength of this fiery ape is not even as good as the most mediocre four-thousand-year-old soul beast, and it has a brute force, which is a significant characteristic of being unable to control its own strength if it advances too quickly. ”
The words added by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm further enhanced the credibility of Ye Xi's conjecture.
But instead of being overjoyed, his heart tightened.
"We can see this, other humans and even soul beasts may be able to slowly figure out the muse, no! Without further ado, it is a must to go now! ”
Ye Xi completely abandoned the opportunity to snatch the flesh and blood of the fiery ape, and quietly bypassed this area where more and more soul beasts gathered.
After retreating for nearly a kilometer, he spread his four claws and rushed towards the small valley inhabited by the fiery ape tribe with all his might......
……
Beneath the rock wall,
The little fat man stepped forward with courage, kicked the body that had stiffened for a thousand years, and released an evil fire to burn the opponent's vital point to vent his anger.
"Dare to attack Master and Teacher Li in the world, let you taste the taste of roast chicken!"
While burning, he also scolded indistinctly.
Seeing this, the old man hurriedly coughed and shook his head to stop: "Ahem, Hongjun, it's almost enough, this beast is dead, why treat it like this again." ”
Under his persuasion, the little fat man retracted the evil fire unsatisfactorily.
"Humph! This soul beast was attracted by the hundred-year-old soul beast with black and white fur, so it should be roasted as well! ”
The little fat man then searched everywhere for Ye Xi's traces, but unfortunately he was no longer here.
"It's just a hundred-year-old soul beast, even if it is a top-level soul beast, it can't cause us any more trouble, just let it go, according to the old man, it brings us not only trouble, maybe there are other opportunities I don't know......"
The old man stared at the corpse of the soul beast on the ground, and a trace of essence flashed in his cloudy eyes.
He took out the map of the animal skin and looked at it carefully, and immediately left here quickly with the little fat man.
As soon as the two of them left, the area suddenly resounded with a series of creepy roars, followed by an incomparably noisy and rapid rush and collision.
"Roar! Roar! ”
"Whew!"
"Tsk!!"
Countless soul beasts of all kinds appeared from various hidden places, rushing wildly towards the fiery ape corpse in the center, going to this gluttonous feast, or becoming a part of it.
For a time, the rocky beach under the rock wall turned into a bloody Shura field......
……
The place where the thousand-year-old fiery ape died was not far from the small valley, and even if he took a slight detour, Ye Xi quickly arrived here.
"Chirp!"
These fiery apes of ten years and centuries were happily carrying their stored flame stems and dried flesh of various beasts out of their burrows and piling them in the middle of the valley, while scratching their ears and cheeks and watching the entrance of the valley repeatedly.
They seem to be celebrating the Leader's resurrection, hoping that the Leader will bring back the damn fat bear for them to eat!
However, after a long time, they failed to bring back the thousand-year-old fiery ape, but saw Ye Xi who rolled into the valley again in disbelief.
"Squeak!"
In an instant, the excited cries of the fiery apes stopped abruptly, and the originally noisy canyon suddenly became audible.
What's going on? How did this fat bear come back!
And what about the chief? Where is the leader who went after it?
The five-hundred-year-old fiery ape with the highest wisdom in the valley couldn't help but shudder.
As for the other fiery apes that couldn't think so much at all, they were simply afraid of Ye Xi's strength, and without a leader, they didn't dare to compete with them at all, so they could only tremble with fear.
"Am I so horrible, as for this reaction?"
Ye Xi's swarthy bear claws scratched his head and said secretly.
He ignored the fiery apes and crawled straight towards the cave in the depths of the valley that had been shattered by the thousand-year-old fiery ape.
The cavern was almost blocked by large chunks of rubble, and the few gaps in the rocks couldn't be passed through.
But this is not a problem for Ye Xi.
He can easily lift hundreds or even thousands of pounds of boulders, and it is very easy to clean up the rubble at the entrance of this cave, and after several diggings of the bear's paw, he successfully drilled into it.
"This hole looks pretty deep."
The cave is much wider than the entrance, but it is more precipitous, and it sloes steeply into the dark and deep ground with a steep slope of sixty degrees, and there is no bottom of it, and it is very doubtful that there will be something indescribably terrible underneath.
"Whew!"
Ye Xi spat out flames, ignited a dry flame stem vine, and threw it towards the cave, and the burning vine fell to the bottom of the cave in just a few seconds, and slowly extinguished it after a while.
Seeing that the cave was not deep and there was nothing unusual, Ye Xi did not hesitate much, immediately touched the rough rock wall, and cautiously went deeper into the cave.
He doesn't need to use fire-breathing for lighting, and with a pair of super night vision eyes that absorb the abilities of various creatures such as ghostly wolves, colorful cats, four-eyed owls, etc., he can see everything in the dark!
Soon, he managed to climb to the bottom of the cave.
The temperature at the bottom of the cave is obviously much higher than that of the already extremely hot valley, and the area is really not small, enough to be tens of square meters.
In the center, there are several twisted rock crevices as thick and winding as centipedes, with a faint golden-red glow faintly transmitting through them......
