Chapter 376: Enormous Ape (1/2)

“Ruuuwoooaarrrr!” a piercing shriek erupted beneath the earth as both land and sky broke into a million pieces.

A gleaming, golden ape burrowed out from the crust. At least thirty meters tall, it wore a suit of tattered armor and carried a huge iron club that was about the same height as itself. However, one end of the club seemed to have been cut off by something, causing the weapon to look a little unbalanced.

An arcane dao immortal... ape? Lu Yun looked around dazedly. The Enneaqilin Coffinbiers had sealed away a pathetic primate like this?

No! It’s only this weak because of being sealed away for so long, so it only has the strength of initial arcane dao right now! I still need to get out of here!

The Skydragon and Skyphoenix Pearls were already his. As soon as the ape appeared, the minor world undertook the final step toward total annihilation, scaring the young man out of his wits.

Lu Yun dashed to the entrance upon the Path of Ingress, then used a Size Manipulation Talisman on both Situ Zong and himself. As tiny motes of dust, the two of them were able to dodge the incoming attacks.

“Die!” An explosive shout descended from above.

An arcane dao immortal had kept his eye on the proceedings. Although Lu Yun and Situ Zong had shrunk down to particle size, they couldn’t escape the detection of someone so powerful.

As soon as the duo cleared the exit, he delivered a downward slash at them. Situ Zong had no time to react; the enemy was too swift for him and he didn’t even have the time to adjust the aim of his cannon.

“Piss off!” Lu Yun howled. A storm of silver thunderbolts flared from his body. Gathering into a single stream, they rose up and met the arcane dao immortal’s sword.

Crackle!

Lightning tore apart the sky for at least fifty kilometers around. All color drained from the immortal’s face as he took the full brunt of the electric attack, hurtling backward from the frenzied blow.

“Fuck him up, Situ!” Lu Yun snarled.

The old man finally snapped to. He aimed the cannon at the arcane dao immortal in involuntary flight and fired a shot at maximum power.

Boom!

The explosion was accompanied by a loud scream of despair as the immortal’s chest was punched clean through by the cannon shot. The destructive energies in the pillar of light decimated everything in his body.

“What?!” Other immortals in the vicinity blanched in fear.

They’d heard of the might of Lu Yun’s imitation war treasure before. Indeed, some had watched him blast the North Sea emperor’s replica into smithereens elsewhere in the tomb. But the current cause of their fright was the unexpected tempest of lightning he’d just released.

The more astute among them recalled how Lu Yun had once used an endless squall of thunder to destroy two dao-grade formations and innumerable immortals outside Xiankan. What he’d used a moment ago was a repeat of that, really.

Now, Lu Yun and Situ Zong were safely outside and back to their normal size. The cannon barrel on the latter’s shoulder was a bit deformed by the heat, but no one was brave enough to strike due to the silver lightning still crackling all over Lu Yun’s body.
