Chapter Eighty-Six: Blessings and Misfortunes
"This time it is the big demon of the gibbon clan that appears, but what major events related to this clan have happened during this time?"
When I recalled the habits of the Great Demon at this moment, I couldn't help but wonder about its true purpose of going to Fort East.
You know, before this trip out of Fort East, I hadn't even heard of apes living in the Burial Moon Forest.
Even the castle lord had never had any contact with this clan before.
It's weird everywhere!
Thinking about it carefully, the time when this big demon appeared should not be far from the time when the gibbon king arrived at the river, and it is even very likely that it arrived at the same time at all.
And it seems that there has been friction with their clan during this time......
"Impossible! I'm so weak, how can I be remembered by it?"
As soon as I thought of this, I rejected it, but I couldn't think of any more reasonable explanation for a while.
"It can't be that the castle lord accidentally caught or injured some important member of the gibbon clan because he couldn't find me during that time, right?"
But as soon as this idea arose, I rejected it.
Joke!
Will the castle lord not be able to find me?
Actually, the main reason is that I keep repeating a picture in my head.
In the picture, the gibbon king is standing by the river in a frustration because he lost me, and behind it a gibbon as tall as the sky stands quietly......
This image has been hovering in my mind without interruption, and I can't get rid of it.
This only shows that subconsciously, I still feel that this matter has a lot to do with me.
After the Gibbon King couldn't find any trace of me, the gibbon demon behind it thought for a long time, and finally decided to venture to Fort Orient to find it further.
This also explains why it has been standing in that place for so long, because the decision to go to Fort Orient is really not easy.
In this way, what was originally like a mess and clueless suddenly became much clearer after I found the right direction, and then I naturally thought of the key question - what is there in me that is worthy of such excitement and pursuit by the gibbons?
"Beast tooth bracelet?"
It is certainly a bit magical, but for those demon cultivators who have cultivated to a high level and have hands and eyes to the sky, it may just be a plaything.
Relying on external objects has never been the mainstream of cultivation, and only cultivators like me and the Gibbon King who have just gotten a glimpse of the path of cultivation will pay more attention to it.
But despite this, I only use it as a last resort in every battle, after all, I have been fighting across borders for a long time, and it is not easy to hold on to this point.
"So, what else can it be if it's not a beast tooth bracelet?
It's even more impossible!
At least from what I know about the Demon Fruit so far, it's more of a way to help ordinary beasts advance to demon faster.
Whether it is for the gibbon king or the big demon behind it, it doesn't seem to have much effect except for rewarding the juniors in the clan.
Unless that junior's identity is extremely critical and his status is also very special.
But even if this is the case, he can't make the trouble of going to Dongfang Fort for a demon fruit, and he can't make it at all.
Just wait one more month, and the next time the Blood Moon rises again, a new Demon Transformation Fruit will be born.
Besides, the devil knows how long I've been out this time!
So many things have happened during this period, my time has long been chaotic, I can't say that the blood moon has risen and fallen, and the demon fruit has ripened several times.
In the end, then, there is only one possibility......
"Seventy-two punches that shake the sky!" my eyes lit up.
In fact, I thought of it as possible at the beginning, but I was always reluctant to admit it, so I kept looking for other goals.
After all, if it's really it, the stakes are too great.
Eventually, however, after going around in circles and rejecting all other possible speculations, it came back to this answer.
At least I know that the status of the Seventy-two Fists of Heaven Shaking in the Gibbon Clan is not worse than that of those Immortal Cultivation Sects in the outside world.
The so-called "puff is not guilty, but he is guilty", if I had obtained the sect's mastery in the outside world by means that were not recognized by the sect, once it was known, I am afraid that I would have been hunted down and killed a long time ago.
This level of important learning is not to mention leaked, and even the disciples of this sect will never teach it if they can't meet the requirements!
In this case, it is not incomprehensible that there are elders in the gibbon family who come out to look for me.
At that time, I also felt fortunate that I had such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to obtain the Seventy-Two Fists of Heaven Shattering, a thaumaturgical magic method that was famous even in the entire demon world.
I didn't think about the deeper problem at all.
In fact, looking back now, even if I realized it at the time, I am afraid that I will not give up this opportunity to send it to the door, right?
Not to mention that I am indeed very interested in this boxing method, just because the Gibbon King kept trying to snatch my bracelet and even endangered my life several times, this matter cannot be passed so unexplained!
If the war is lost, there will be reparations, not to mention that the fighting method is defeated and the life is bought?
As a result, I almost capsized again in this situation.
The reason why the Gibbon King is willing to unlock the power of the bloodline prohibition and pass on my fist technique is just to take advantage of this to get out of trouble, and at the same time, take advantage of the opportunity of me immersing myself in it and completely opening my heart to kill me with absolutely strong spiritual power.
It almost succeeded!
If that were the case, there would be no sin in leaking secret techniques, and all its purposes would be achieved.
But God help me, don't help it!
I'm a complete victim in this matter.
Now the whole thing is transparent.
Whether it is the Gibbon King who takes the initiative to inform the elders of the clan, or whether the Gibbon Clan has a secret technique that can detect that the power of their clan's bloodline related to the inheritance of the secret art has been unlocked, resulting in the leakage of possible secret skills, they cannot sit idly by.
Only then did a big demon jump out and follow the gibbon king to try to find me.
After discovering that the target was lost, he still refused to give up, and took a great risk to try to go to Fort Orient to ask for an explanation!
Ahh
At this time, I suddenly felt that I was very lucky to be eaten by the demon turtle, otherwise with the magic power of the big demon, with it following the gibbon king, I would not have had a chance to escape.
Even if he hid in the bone chamber and hid under the mud as originally intended, it was still not safe.
Thankfully!
The ancients did not deceive me!
From how long it took me to walk back from the lake to the swallowed shore, I knew how far the tortoise had swam with me.
In that sense, it's kind to me.
It's really a blessing and a curse, and creation makes people!
