“But I can’t cross this sea.” Yu Huang threw a wooden stick into the sea. The seawater slapped the wooden stick and swept it to the shore.
She said, “I miss my friends very much.” If it wasn’t for the big ape accompanying her every day, Yu Huang would have had the feeling that she had returned to the Doomsday World.
Yu Huang stared at the wet wooden stick and mocked herself. “I’m like this wooden stick. I’ve been swept back to this continent by that strange force over and over again.” Yu Huang patted the big ape’s shoulder heavily and said, “Stupid ape, if you can help me leave this damn place, I’ll be your friend.”
Seeing that the big ape was frowning and seemed to be somewhat puzzled, Yu Huang specifically repeated, “Friend.” Yu Huang raised her right hand and placed her palm facing the big ape.
The big ape stared at Yu Huang’s palm for a moment before raising its hand and pressing it against Yu Huang’s.
Just as Yu Huang was about to retract her hand, she heard the big ape say, “Fre.. ay.”
Even though the last syllable was pronounced wrongly, the big ape was indeed saying ‘friend’.
Yu Huang’s eyes widened as she stared at the ape in shock. “You’re imitating me?” Yu Huang suddenly felt happy. She smiled and said again, “Friend.”
The ape pronounced it more accurately this time. “Friend.”
“That’s right!”
That night, Yu Huang taught the big ape many things. It was difficult, but it still learned very attentively.
The next day, Yu Huang ate some birds and sat cross-legged in front of the wooden house to absorb the demonic power. She ended her meditation and realized that the big ape was also sitting beside her and pretending to meditate. She suddenly became interested and said to the big ape, “We’ve known each other for a long time. Let me teach you some knowledge.”
From that day onwards, Yu Huang began to teach the big ape how to preserve fire seeds, how to drill wood for fire, and how to sow seeds. She even taught it how to handle food. She also taught it how to use clay to make bowls and pots and use iron ore to forge stir-frying pots.
Just like that, Yu Huang and the big ape lived together for another half a year.
In the past six months, the big ape had basically learned how to survive. It could even use a special cotton tree in the forest to make clothes. It was wearing a short shirt, an especially wide pair of pants, and straw shoes.
Now, be it walking or doing things, the big ape was more like a human.
“Yu Huang, it’s time to eat shells!” The big ape made a pot of shells with some plant spices and went into the house to call Yu Huang to eat.
Realizing that Yu Huang was still meditating, the big ape knew that it couldn’t disturb her, so it ate something and ran into the forest to take a piss before returning to the coast.
On the shore, there was a small wooden boat. It was a small wooden boat made of wood that Yu Huang had been bored with a few days ago. Yu Huang thought that since she couldn’t fly across the sea, she might be able to successfully cross the sea in the most traditional way, so she spent half a day building a small wooden boat. However, that small wooden boat could only be used in the shallow sea. Once she left the shallow sea, she would be struck back to the shore by strange waves.
After the method of taking the boat out to sea was declared a failure, Yu Huang completely stopped thinking about those miscellaneous things.
She was prepared to live on this continent for three years and then leave.
The big ape had seen Yu Huang prop the boat before. It knew that there was a kind of rabbit in the sea that was especially delicious, but Yu Huang had rarely hunted that kind of rabbit recently. The big ape was really hungry. It turned around and looked at the wooden house behind it. Seeing that Yu Huang had yet to move, it decided to go out to sea to try its luck.
The big ape picked up the paddle and pushed the boat to the surface. It began to look for traces of sea rabbits in the clear seawater.
The boat moved forward on the sea for a distance. The big ape hadn’t found traces of the sea rabbit, so it continued to investigate. Finally, it saw traces of the sea rabbit. The big ape hurriedly waved the paddle and chased in the direction of the sea rabbit.
When Yu Huang finished her cultivation and walked out of the wooden house, she was stunned when she saw a pot of cold shells.
“Stupid ape?” Where had it gone?
Yu Huang didn’t find the stupid ape, so she scooped a bowl of shells and ate it herself. After eating, she flew back to the forest to challenge the powerful One-Eyed Wolf Beast. This time, she chose a One-Eyed Wolf Beast with extremely powerful demonic power and was about the level of a Grand Master. Yu Huang fought a bloody battle with it, and only returned with injuries all over her body when it was almost dark.
When she returned to the small wooden hut, she saw a sea rabbit with its stomach cut open at the door. Yu Huang walked towards the big ape that was roasting meat and asked it, “You caught this sea rabbit? How did you catch it?” It seemed that this fellow had disappeared early in the morning to catch sea rabbits.
After seven months of interaction, the big ape could already understand Yu Huang’s words. It had also learned many words. Now, the big ape and Yu Huang could already communicate briefly.
The big ape told Yu Huang, “I caught it in the sea.”
Yu Huang was somewhat shocked.
Sea rabbits rarely came to the shallow sea area. This was also the reason Yu Huang rarely caught sea rabbits recently. Yu Huang asked it again, “Where did you catch them?”
The big ape pointed at the sea and said, “Very, very far away.”
Yu Huang looked in the direction the big ape was pointing at. She suddenly stood up and said to the big ape, “Eat quickly. After you’re done, bring me to the place where you caught the sea rabbit.”
“Okay!”
The big ape had a huge appetite. It finished the sea rabbit’s two legs alone. Then, it supported the boat and brought Yu Huang to the sea where it caught the sea rabbit.
The big ape was very heavy, and the wooden boat was relatively petite. When the big ape sat on it, the wooden boat sank into the sea. Fortunately, it could still move forward.
The big ape waved the paddle with all its might. After traveling in the sea for more than two hours, they arrived at the border between the shallow sea and the deep sea. This was the barrier of that energy. Yu Huang had encountered this barrier many times, but she was unable to pass through it no matter what.
Seeing that she was about to approach the barrier, Yu Huang couldn’t help but tense up. She quietly stood up and asked the big ape, “Are we not there yet?”
The big ape wiped the sweat off its forehead and said, “It’s still ahead.”
Yu Huang’s gaze flickered slightly, but she didn’t say anything.
Splash!
The oars rippled the seawater, and the waves splashed down with a pleasant sound. The big ape waved the oars again, and the bow actually broke through the barrier and continued forward. Yu Huang actually discovered that the mysterious force had lost its effect on her!
Yu Huang suddenly turned around and stared at the big ape. Her throat tightened. “You…”
How did it do it?
The big ape saw that Yu Huang’s expression seemed very strange. It didn’t know what had happened, but said, “Sea rabbits jump very fast. It’s still a large distance ahead. However, I’m too heavy, so this boat can’t carry us anymore.” The big ape smiled at Yu Huang in embarrassment and said, “Let’s go back first and build a larger boat. I’ll bring you to catch sea rabbits.”
The big ape thought that Yu Huang wanted to eat the sea rabbit meat. It really wanted to catch a few more for Yu Huang.
Yu Huang didn’t say anything. She suddenly extended her phoenix wings and was about to fly up when she realized that all the spiritual energy in her body had disappeared after entering the deep sea.
It seemed that the restrictions of the sea had not disappeared. It was only because she was on the big ape’s boat that she could enter freely.
Yu Huang retracted her wings helplessly and looked at the big ape with a complicated expression before nodding. “Alright.”
After returning to the coast, the next day, Yu Huang and the big ape went into the forest to cut many logs and made an even larger wooden boat. The big ape had good stamina and quickly cut down a thick tree. Yu Huang saw that it was covered in sweat, so she threw a handkerchief at it. “Hey, stupid ape, wipe your sweat.”
The stupid ape really wiped its sweat.
Yu Huang stared at the big ape and suddenly said, “Do you want a name?”
The big ape stopped logging and raised its head. It looked at Yu Huang in confusion and asked, “Name?”
“Yes, Yu Huang is my name.”
The big ape said, “Stupid ape is my name.”
Yu Huang smiled and ended it. “Stupid ape is not your name.” This was an insult, but Yu Huang couldn’t let the big ape know. She asked the big ape, “Change your name. Do you have a name you want?”
Yu Huang thought that the big ape didn’t have any requirements for the name, but the big ape actually said, “Kunlun.”
Yu Huang’s smile instantly froze.
