Chapter 2993: Red-Buttocked Horse Monkey Translator: Legge “You know about the Blessed Heaven World Badge?” Yuan An looked at Su Zimo in surprise. Su Zimo nodded and did not say anything. A sorrowful expression appeared on Yuan An’s face as he smiled mockingly. “Since you know about the Blessed Heaven World Badge, you should know that they belong to the Blessed Heaven World and everything they do is in accordance with the heavens. Who dares to challenge them?” Against the question of the Horse Monkey King, Ape King Heaven Breaker seemed to be unable to withstand some pressure as well. He gritted his teeth and sat back down slowly. The Sanguine Ape lineage gradually quietened down. The laughter from the Horse Monkey lineage sounded exceptionally ear-piercing. Su Zimo could clearly sense that the Sanguine Ape lineage no longer had the spirit, energy and will that they should have. Su Zimo asked, “Since they can fight to the death in the Perfected Spirit Battles, so what if you kill the other party?” “A life for a life.” Yuan An said, “Furthermore, it’s not just the clansman who kills the other party who have to pay with his life. The parents, brothers and children of this clansman will be implicated and buried with the other party!” “Do you dare to kill the other party under such circumstances?” Su Zimo was silent. Yuan An clenched his fists slightly and became agitated. He said in a low voice, “It’s not that our Sanguine Ape race lacks righteousness, but we’ve truly experienced too much suffering over the countless years!” “I told you earlier on that the Ape race originally had four lineages. Among them, the Stone Monkey lineage was extinct at the end of the Combat Era!” “The Macaque lineage was exterminated in this generation’s Calamity of the Sanguine Apes. What use was our sense of righteousness in the end?” “The Horse Monkey lineage submitted and became a lackey of the Blessed Heaven World. At the very least, our Sanguine Ape lineage did not submit!” Su Zimo sighed internally. He knew the suffering of the Sanguine Ape lineage and the pressure they were facing. He also understood the choices made by the Sanguine Apes. If they continued to resist, the Sanguine Ape lineage would end up with the same outcome as the Stone Monkey and Macaque lineages. As Yuan An had said, it was already rare for the Sanguine Ape lineage to not bend their knees and submit. Furthermore, in this generation, only the Sanguine Ape lineage dared to question the Blessed Heaven World and even had a direct conflict with it. In the end, it resulted in the Calamity of the Sanguine Apes and they were almost exterminated! Within the medium chiliocosm, only the Sanguine Ape lineage had such courage and righteousness! However, over the years, under the might of the traitors and the Blessed Heaven World, the righteousness of the Sanguine Ape lineage was gradually obliterated and they no longer had the spirit to fight against the heavens and the earth. Yuan An gradually calmed down and realized that he had lost his composure. “Fellow Daoist, sorry for saying so much.” There was no contempt in Su Zimo’s eyes. With a solemn expression, he cupped his fists in respect. The second round of the Perfected Spirit Battles was not over yet. The remaining four people fought in pairs as well. As No. 1, Monkey was up against Ma Xiao, who had just killed a Sanguine Ape Perfected Spirit. No. 2, Ma Xuan, was up against the Sanguine Ape Perfected Spirit who was No. 3- When he saw the battle, Yuan An turned around. “Senior Brother Yuan Huang’s luck is not bad. He has a higher chance of winning against Ma Xiao.” 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞 “If he’s up against Ma Xuan in this round, he’ll probably be eliminated in advance.” Su Zimo had long noticed that although he was also from the Horse Monkey lineage, Ma Xuan’s blood qi was clearly stronger and far surpassed his other clansmen! “Ma Xuan’s bloodline seems to be a little special. What’s his background?” Su Zimo asked. Yuan An looked at Su Zimo in surprise and praised, “Fellow Daoist, you have sharp eyes.” Pausing for a moment, Yuan An said, “There’s an extremely rare and powerful bloodline in the Horse Monkey lineage called the Red-Buttocked Horse Monkey.” “The Red-Buttocked Horse Monkey understands Yin and Yang and knows how to deal with human affairs. It’s good at blending in and out and avoiding death to prolong its life. That Ma Xuan has such a bloodline.” As the two of them conversed, a huge battle had already begun on the combat arena! Su Zimo was in deep thought as he asked again, “Since there’s such a powerful bloodline in the Horse Monkey lineage, do the other three lineages have it as well?” “Of course.” Yuan An nodded. “The strongest bloodline awakened by the Stone Monkey lineage is called the Stone Monkey of Numinous Wisdom. It’s versatile, knows the weather, understands terrain advantages and can shift the stars.” “The strongest bloodline awakened in the Macaque lineage is called the Six-Eared Macaque. It’s good at listening to sound and can analyze logic. It understands the knowledge of past and present and has a good comprehension of all things.” “As for the strongest bloodline awakened in our Sanguine Ape lineage, it’s the Connected Arms Sanguine Ape. We can seize the sun and the moon, shrink thousands of mountains, distinguish between the auspicious and inauspicious and even manipulate plants and stars!” At that point, Yuan An looked at Monkey on the arena and hesitated. “Actually, Senior Brother Yuan Huang has already awakened the Connected Arms bloodline. However…” “However?” Su Zimo asked. Yuan An said regretfully, “After the Calamity of the Sanguine Apes, the Horse Monkey lineage submitted to the Blessed Heaven World and controlled the Sanguine Ape World, prohibiting clansmen from going out.” “With that, Senior Brother Yuan Huang lacked opportunities and his bloodline has probably only awakened by 20% at best. He’s far from the peak state of the Connected Arms Sanguine Ape.” While the two of them were conversing, the outcome of the two battles on the combat arena was about to be decided. Relying on the powerful blood qi of the Red-Buttocked Horse Monkey, Ma Xuan did not use his full strength at all. He toyed with his opponent like a cat playing with a mouse and controlled the situation. On the other side, although Monkey’s cultivation realm was lower, he relied on a powerful secret skill to raise his combat strength to the Paradise Void realm. Su Zimo had seen that secret skill with his own eyes. Back when the True Martial Tenth Heavenly Tribulation descended on the Martial Dao Prime Body, Great Emperor Combat had released similar methods. According to Yuan An’s description, the Connected Arms Sanguine Ape could seize the sun and moon and shrink thousands of mountains. It was evident that it was extremely strong and best at melee combat. Furthermore, Su Zimo could sense a strong will to fight from Monkey. He was untamed and fearless! Under the suppression of that aura, Ma Xiao retreated step by step. “Die!” Right then, Ma Xuan seemed to be unwilling to continue playing. His blood qi intensified and he waved his spear, breaking through the defense of the Sanguine Ape Perfected Spirit opposite him. He charged in and pierced the other party’s head! On the other side, the outcome had already been decided. After a series of head-on collisions, Ma Xiao’s arm was sore and he could not hold his staff properly. He was sent flying by Monkey’s staff! However, Monkey did not stop when faced with the barehanded Ma Xiao. A ferocious glint flashed in his eyes as he raised his staff and smashed it towards the top of Ma Xiao’s head! “Hmm?” Ma Xiao’s expression changed. The aura and killing intent released by that staff strike was completely different from the situation earlier on! “Not good, he’s going to kill me!” That thought flashed through Ma Xiao’s mind and he was shocked. Without hesitation, he reached out instinctively to grab Monkey’s staff. Bang! The staff smashed down but was grabbed tightly by Ma Xiao’s gigantic hand! Crack crack crack! The sound of bones cracking sounded! In pain, Ma Xiao glared angrily at Monkey and hollered, “How dare you try and kill me!” “Why wouldn’t I dare to?” Monkey grinned with a sinister gaze and released his staff. He strode forward and bent his knees slightly, propping up both hands as though he was offering a fruit. Ma Xiao gripped Monkey’s staff with both hands and could not defend in time. He could only retreat instinctively. However, Monkey was even faster. He bounced up and placed his hands on Ma Xiao’s chin! Crack! Ma Xiao’s head was flung back at a terrifying angle and his cervical spine was broken! Monkey had no intention of stopping and punched in reverse, smashing towards Ma Xiao’s face like a gigantic seal! Ma Xiao’s reaction was extremely fast as well. His body was severely injured and his Essence Spirit broke out of its shell, escaping into the distance. Just as his Essence Spirit was about to escape from Monkey’s attack range, Monkey’s arm suddenly expanded by dozens of feet.. His arm tore through the air and a gigantic seal descended from the skies, shattering Ma Xiao’s Essence Spirit!
