Chapter 338: Advanced Stage!
Translator: Kazeyuki_ Editor: Jimmy_
Phew!
Qin Wushuang opened his mouth and eyes widely. Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of impure air!
As soon as he spat out this impure air, joy filled Qin Wushuang’s face. He knew that the Advanced Stage he had dreamed about had arrived.
At this moment, Qin Wushuang was no longer at the Middle Stage!
Advanced Stage of the Spiritual Martial Force!
He had truly entered the Advanced Stage!
Qin Wushuang enjoyed the powerful lifeforce from emanating from his dantian and all the changes inside his body. It was such joy and happiness.
Qin Wushuang whistled lightly and that white sable rushed back in. Overjoyed, it jumped on Qin Wushuang’s shoulder and asked about him. Apparently, it was also surprised about Qin Wushuang’s breakthrough. However, it was more than happy for him.
“Advanced Stage…” Qin Wushuang’s eyes teared up as he felt hot tears fill his eyes. Everything had arrived just in time.
Since the incident with his teacher, there have been many times and even in his dreams, that he had fantasized about entering the Advanced Stage and breaking the seal on the Purple Flaming Electric beast. He dreamt about how he held the Graceful Spiritual Bow and personally killed Zhao Heng with it and took his head in revenge for his teacher.
However, he woke up in disappointment each time. Each time, he experienced the disappointment and a powerless sadness.
And at this moment, the scene he had dreamed about had taken a step toward reality. How could not be wild with joy.
“Stay calm!” Inwardly, Qin Wushuang reminded himself, “I still haven’t gotten the Spiritual Infant Fruits and I cannot delay anymore. Bao Bao said that something had happened in the Monkey Clan, I must go and take a look. If it’s any later, wouldn’t everything become hopeless and my journey become wasted if someone else took the Spiritual Infant Fruits?”
He also felt anxious when he remembered the Barbarian Tribe. Undoubtedly, those three Barbarians provided him with some crucial information. The Barbarian Tribe wanted to steal some type of holy object from the Monkey King Mountain. The name of that Holy object was called the Holy Ivory Flower.
Although Qin Wushuang did not know what the Holy Ivory Flower was, it should not be something ordinary since the entire Barbarian Tribe had stirred and wanted to use the human adventurers as bait to attract the attention of the Monkey Clan. Or else, the Barbarian Tribe would never make a big fuss.
“I must not allow the Barbarian Tribe to act first!” When Qin Wushuang though here, he moved out without hesitation. Once again, he headed toward the Monkey King Mountain at full speed.
Bao Bao had said that the Spiritual Infant Fruits were located at the Phoenix Return Cliff. And this mountain was where the Monkey King resided. Thus, Bao Bao had said that it was impossible to get the Spiritual Infant Fruits, unless he could defeat the Monkey King.
Although he said it this way, Qin Wushuang had no reason to give up. He felt that it was not necessary to fight with the Monkey King to get the Spiritual Infant Fruits.
There were many methods and it would depend on how he decided.
Qin Wushuang travelled quickly and in a moment, he was back at the Monkey King Mountain. He found the Phoenix Return Cliff and rushed over.
To Qin Wushuang’s surprise, in less than ten days since he had left the Monkey King Mountain, the sky and earth had seemingly turned upside down.
The surrounding vegetation were all burnt and everything was in ruins. All the trees had fallen and the area was in a mess. Indeed, it was a scene of desolation after a great disaster.
It was as if the entire Monkey King Mountain had been robbed.
Especially on the path to the Phoenix Return Cliff, everywhere there were battle scenes.
“Indeed, the Barbarian Tribe has declared war on the Monkey Clan! Along the way, there were either corpses of the monkeys or the Barbarians. This conflict does not seem to be an ordinary battle.”
For sure, the Barbarian Tribe had sent the majority of their elite forces when they slaughtered their way to the main headquarters of the Monkey Clan. And they were determined to win. Or else, even if some of the mighty powerhouses had engaged in conflict in the same area, it would never reach such a state of devastation with corpses strewn across the field.
After watching for a moment, Qin Wushuang rushed upward with concern in his mind. The more he climbed, the more desolate the scene appeared. The appalling scenes of the devastation caused even Qin Wushuang to feel like vomiting as he witnessed them.
The Barbarians were extremely brutal people. When they fought, they would not just kill the enemies. After they had killed the enemies, they also had a habit of consuming the core essence of their victim’s bodies. Thus, the elite monkeys died in an especially terrifying manner.
Inwardly, Qin Wushuang felt mournful as he thought: “The battles and the killing at the Dispersed Praying Mountain is much more brutal and direct than those of the human countries. I wonder how many troops the Barbarian Tribe had sent?”
While Qin Wushuang continued to climb, from time to time, there were patrols from the Barbarian Tribe. However, the training of the Barbarians did not seem as sophisticated as the humans. They patrolled relying on their instincts and their native skills. For example, they relied on their concealing ability to patrol.
Despite the case, Qin Wushuang still met with much resistance along the way. Fortunately, Qin Wushuang travelled at a fast pace and did not become entangled with the Barbarians.
After walking for one hour, Qin Wushuang was finally able to see the core area of the Monkey Clan. The monkey clan was different than humans as they did not have any majestic palaces or any residential areas. It was a giant cave and above it, there were layers of mountain stone that formed a grand stone forest. The stone forest comprised the core area and was the Holy Place of the Monkey Clan.
Currently, the area before the stone forest was also occupied by the Barbarians. As soon as Qin Wushuang got closer, a group of Barbarians rushed forward and stopped him.
“Stupid human, how did you get up here?”
At this moment, a few sharp whistles came from behind the stone forest as a group of Barbarians rushed out. It seemed as if they were chasing something and were shouting strangely.
Qin Wushuang was momentarily lost his wits as he never thought that the Barbarians would have taken over the entire Phoenix Return Mountain. And each of these Barbarians were at the Middle Stage. A portion of them were even at the Advanced Stage!
“Catch that little gold monkey, whoever catches it, I will give them rich rewards!” One of the Barbarian leaders shouted. At this moment, suddenly, something moved below Qin Wushuang’s foot as if something was climbing inside his pants. Qin Wushuang lowered his head and it was Bao Bao!
And those Barbarians had also noticed Bao Bao as all of them rushed over!
Qin Wushuang carried Bao Bao onto this shoulder and retreated a dozen of steps with a jump. He whipped the snake shaped whip into a circle to prevent those Barbarians from approaching.
“Hold on!” That Barbarian Leader sized Qin Wushuang up from head to toe.
Feeling at ease, Qin Wushuang saw that among these Barbarians, there were no Perfect Stage Warriors. Thus, Qin Wushuang was confident that he could still deal with these people.
“Are you from the Red Maple Human Clan? May I ask your surname?” That Barbarian asked in a broken human language.
Qin Wushuang shook his head and said: “No.”
“Xuan Yuan Mound?” The expression of that Savage Leader changed slightly.
Qin Wushuang was not willing to lie as he laughed: “Why are you asking so much?”
With his emotions stirred up, Bao Bao chattered in Qin Wushuang’s ear in the beast langage. After hearing its words, Qin Wushuang’s expression also changed slightly.
The story was that today, three Perfect Stage Barbarian Chiefs had come. Currently, these three Perfect Stage Warriors were attacking the Silver Monkey King of the Monkey Clan!
The Silver Monkey King was the King of the Monkey Clan and the strongest warrior. His strength had reach the peak of the Perfect Stage. He could break into the Void Martial Force at anytime.
At the Dispersed Praying Mountain, undoubtedly, the Silver Monkey King was the number one warrior. Even the strongest Chief of the Barbarian Tribe could not resist against him at a one on one battle.
Initially, the Monkey Clan also had a few elite warriors. However, these elite warriors had gone to a Holy Place in the Xuan Yuan mound to participate in a sacrificial ceremony for the beast clan. Thus, they were absent.
This had left the main force of the Monkey Clan to weakened. With the strength of only the Silver King Monkey, naturally, he could only resist against a few Perfect Stage warriors at the same time. And he had no other strength to spare nor could he divide this attention to the other Advanced Stage warriors. This also allowed those brutal Barbarians to murder freely.
Qin Wushuang sighed inwardly: Initially, he had wanted to sell the information to the Monkey Clan to warn them that the Barbarians was seeking to steal their Holy object. It seemed his information was outdated.
Bao Bao urged him in beast language: “Human, escort me to the back mountain, and I will tell you the location of the Spiritual Infant Fruits!”
Qin Wushuang asked: “How do I get to the back of the mountain?”
“Go around this stone forest and walk straight, then you will arrive at the back of the mountain.”
Qin Wushuang glanced around for a moment after receiving Bao Bao’s instruction. Yet, he smiled bitterly inwardly. At least a dozen of Barbarian warriors surrounded the place. It would be extremely difficult to breakthrough from any angle here.
Just those five or six Advanced Stage defenders would cause most elite human warriors to retreat.
However, it was his only chance to make the deal with Bao Bao. Qin Wushuang glanced around and had an idea.
He said: “Everyone of the Barbarian Tribe, I came here to take the Spiritual Infant Fruits and I don’t hold any grudge against you. Please make a way for me!”
As Qin Wushuang spoke, he pulled out the Graceful Spiritual Bow. With his intention to intimidate, he initiated the Spiritual Qi and immediately, lights shone from the bow. It appeared extremely enchanting like the pearl from the endless galaxy.
“Everyone, once I open fire with this bow, I can even kill elite warrior of the Perfect Stage! Those who refuse to believe can try it out!”
The people of the Barbarian Tribe were not ignorant people. When they saw the power from this Graceful Spiritual Bow, they were already intimidated by this temperament.
With a cold sneer, Qin Wushuang was about to advance forward. Suddenly, Bao Bao spoke with beast language: “Lovely human, please concentrate and close your eyes. I will take you to the back mountain!”
Before Qin Wushuang had understood what was going on, suddenly, the earth collapsed beneath his foot. Next, his vision darkened as if he world had turned black!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of the earth shifting was all around him. Finally, Qin Wushuang realized that he was moving underground.
In a moment, with a booming sound, Qin Wushuang and Bao Bao broke through the earth. He saw that he was at the border of the cliff when he opened his eyes again.
Overjoyed, Bao Bao kissed Qin Wushuang’s ear with his fluffy little mouth. With a creak, he rambled out.
“Hey, Bao Bao, wait for me!”
Qin Wushuang realized that this should be the back of the mountain. However, Bao Bao still hadn’t fulfilled his promise! The Spiritual Infant Fruits, he wanted the Spiritual Infant Fruits!
