Chapter 1838 Huaguo Mountain
Chapter 1838 Huaguo Mountain
Ye Ning grew stronger with each battle, and so did the monkey, which unleashed its power at the ninth level of the Saintly Venerable realm to its limit, managing to fight Ye Ning to a standstill.
It should be noted that Ye Ning had already used the power of the Immortal-Slaying Blade at this point.
If he were to fight this monkey using only his own strength, he would certainly be no match for it; he would be far from being a match for it.
Even so, despite using the power of the Immortal-Slaying Blade, Ye Ning was unable to suppress his opponent. The two fought to a standstill, with neither able to gain the upper hand.
The monkey's eyes gleamed with golden light, clearly not expecting its opponent to be so formidable this time.
You should know that below the Quasi-Heavenly Emperor level, he is practically invincible.
But now he has encountered a terrifying opponent whose strength is comparable to his own.
Thinking of this, the monkey roared to the sky and transformed into a raging ape, towering 100,000 feet tall.
A terrifying surge of divine power erupted from the monkey's body, and then the golden staff in his hand transformed into a length of 100,000 feet, which he swung down towards Ye Ning below.
Ye Ning was completely dumbfounded. If that blow came down, the entire island would be pulverized.
Just then, the island glowed, and terrifying runes revived, protecting the island.
A strange light flashed in Ye Ning's eyes. Since he wasn't worried about the island, he might as well just go for it.
At this moment, Ye Ning soared into the sky, still the size of a normal person, but compared with that figure that was 100,000 feet tall, he did not feel weak at all, but rather gave people the feeling of being evenly matched.
The two sides clashed, like ants trying to shake an elephant.
However, the result was completely different. The figure, which was 100,000 feet in size, was sent flying backward, while Ye Ning was also blasted into the ocean not far away by this blow, creating a huge wave.
The next moment, Shi Wanzhang's figure shrank and returned to the shape of that monkey.
Ye Ning rushed back immediately, his eyes flashing like lightning as he stared at his opponent, his fighting spirit surging.
The two sides clashed again.
They charged together and engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
Both of them had extremely strong physical bodies.
At this moment, they relentlessly unleashed terrifying power at each other, attempting to suppress one another.
In the end, neither side succeeded. The opponent's strength was almost invincible, with virtually no rivals below the Quasi-Heavenly Emperor level. Even if they wanted to suppress their opponent, it would be impossible. They would need to fight to a certain extent before a winner could be determined.
At this moment, the two had exchanged hundreds or thousands of blows in an instant.
Even someone as strong as Ye Ning felt his power was almost depleted. His opponent was simply too strong, unleashing his full strength with every attack, forcing him to unleash his full power in response.
Even so, Ye Ning was almost suppressed several times.
This monkey is ridiculously strong. Could he be related to the monkey in the myth?
Thinking of this, Ye Ning was shocked. If that was really the case, then it wasn't unacceptable that he had fought with him to this extent.
They fought for a day and a night, until both of them were exhausted at the same time.
The monkey waved its hand and said, "Forget it, I'm not fighting anymore. I can't beat you."
Ye Ning was shocked. This was the first time he had heard the monkey speak after fighting it for a day and a night.
Seeing Ye Ning's horrified expression, the monkey couldn't help but roll its eyes and said irritably, "I'm a Saint Venerable level expert, what's wrong with me saying something? Is there anything wrong with that?"
Ye Ning smiled awkwardly. He had forgotten that the other party was a cultivator whose strength was no weaker than his own, so it was only natural that he could speak.
I was making a fuss over nothing.
Thinking of this, Ye Ning cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
"My name is Ye Yi. May I ask how you are addressed, fellow Daoist?"
The monkey's eyes gleamed with golden light as it stared at Ye Ning and said, "You're lying. Ye Yi isn't your real name."
Ye Ning was slightly taken aback, his eyes showing some surprise as he stared at the monkey and asked, "How did you know that, fellow Daoist?"
The monkey sneered, its expression disdainful: "I can tell whether someone is lying with these eyes."
Ye Ning stared into the monkey's eyes, his expression growing increasingly surprised. He hadn't expected anyone to have such an ability, to tell at a glance whether someone was lying.
You have to understand, a powerhouse of his level can lie with such exquisite control that it's impossible for anyone to detect it.
As for trying to understand their inner thoughts, that's even more impossible.
With Ye Ning's current strength, unless the other party is a Heavenly Emperor level expert, no one can possibly see into his mind.
Even a Heavenly Emperor-level expert like Ye Ning still has the Immortal-Slaying Blade behind him.
Only after passing the test of the Immortal-Slaying Blade will we be able to know whether Ye Ning is telling the truth or not.
But the monkey recognized it immediately.
There is only one explanation: that is his innate supernatural power.
It's an instinct, untraceable, and even they find it hard to stop.
"Then what do you want me to call you?" Ye Ning asked.
The monkey shook its head and said seriously, "I only know that you are lying, that Ye Yi is not your real name. But I don't know what your real name is."
Ye Ning understood that the other party could discern the truth or falsehood in his words, but could not see through his heart.
He smiled and said, "How shall I address you, fellow Daoist?"
The monkey shook its head and said, "Just call me monkey."
Ye Ning was stunned. Could it be that a Saint Venerable expert didn't even have a name?
Seeing Ye Ning looking at him with a puzzled expression, the monkey laughed and said, "I don't know what my name is either. Ever since I was born, I've been called a monkey by everyone. So I said you can just call me a monkey. I have no father or mother, I was born and raised by the earth. All my supernatural powers are self-taught, so no one has given me a name, and I don't know what my name should be."
"How about I give you a name?" Ye Ning couldn't help but say.
After glancing at Ye Ning, the monkey shook his head and said, "I think you have ill intentions, so let's forget about it."
Ye Ning was speechless. This monkey wouldn't fall for it; there was absolutely no way he could be fooled.
Thinking of this, Ye Ning smiled nonchalantly, realizing that he was only joking.
Whether it can be turned into a joke or not is not important at all.
The monkey's gaze towards Ye Ning did not show any hostility.
He said calmly, "I can sense that you mean me no harm. Unlike others, you are not a bad person."
Ye Ning smiled; he didn't know if he was a bad person or not.
However, it's true that they didn't mean any harm to the monkeys.
Thinking of this, Ye Ning asked the monkey, "Fellow Daoist, what exactly is this place? It seems to be a place of outstanding natural beauty and abundant spiritual energy, so it must be extraordinary."
The monkey thought for a moment and said, "I don't know what this place is called, but other people call it Flower Fruit Mountain. However, if you want to stay here, just tell me. This is my territory."
