Chapter 147 Killing the Giant Ape

If reaching the pinnacle means that one has reached the ultimate understanding of a martial art, then returning to the basics means going one step further on this basis.

Summarize and absorb everything that is understood, then evolve and improve it, and finally completely integrate it into oneself, reaching a state where the skills are close to the Tao.

Now Zhao Ya has vaguely felt a hint of this mysterious feeling.

The knife in his hand swung gently, and each stroke was so light that it seemed to be effortless.

But when the knife light passed, the knife wind was like a wave, one wave after another rushing towards any creature that dared to enter the attack range.

With a slight sound, a giant tiger that intended to sneak attack from behind just jumped up, and its head fell lightly like a broken ear of wheat.

It was not until it landed that blood spurted out of the giant tiger's cavity.

The huge tiger corpse fell to the ground, and a giant ape next to it showed a hint of fear in its eyes.

As a primate, the giant ape's IQ is much higher than that of its peers.

So when the giant ape saw that the tiger was killed so easily by Zhao Ya, he was terrified and could not help but retreat.

But just after taking two steps back, the giant ape suddenly slid to the ground, and his body became half a meter shorter.

Two legs covered with black hair stood in front of it, and the cut was very smooth.

The giant ape was shocked to find that his legs were cut off, and he could not help but roar in pain.

But its pain did not last long, because soon, a flash of knife light passed through its neck very gently.

The head flew up immediately, leaving a streak of blood.

The whole process seemed slow, but it was actually very fast. In a moment, two beasts at the peak of the third realm became the dead souls under Zhao Ya's knife.

The other beasts retreated in fear.

At the same time, Zhao Ya touched the ground with his toes, and the whole person flew up, and he had already performed the wind sword technique in mid-air.

The sword borrowed the power of the man, and the man borrowed the wind of the sword, turning into a terrifying tornado, attacking the ghost-faced giant ape.

The ghost-faced giant ape also had a shrunken look in his eyes.

As a fourth-level beast, its IQ was no different from that of ordinary people, so it naturally saw the power of Zhao Ya's move.

Especially since it was burned by kerosene just now, although it did not hurt the vital parts, it was injured after all.

With the superposition of the two, it could not help but want to retreat.

But at this moment, a faint roar of the beast came into its ears, and the ghost-faced giant ape trembled all over, no longer daring to retreat, but roaring and rushing towards Zhao Ya.

This battle was extremely tragic.

Although Zhao Ya was also a fourth-level warrior, and had just broken through the hurricane sword technique, his sword technique had greatly improved.

But this ghost-faced giant ape was gifted. Although it couldn't be said to be made of iron, it was also thick-skinned and tough. Therefore, Zhao Ya could not do anything to it for a while. He could only choose to fight with it and wear down its blood volume bit by bit.

After a full quarter of an hour, the giant ape, whose body was covered with scars, let out a final roar and slapped Zhao Ya fiercely with both palms.

Zhao Ya did not dodge like before, but rushed forward, pointing the meteorite knife in his hand directly at the giant ape's head.

Puff!

The knife flashed, and a blood line appeared between the eyebrows of the ghost-faced giant ape, and a trace of confusion appeared in its eyes.

Then the blood line quickly extended upwards, from the eyebrows upwards, the giant ape's skull was divided into several halves, revealing the brain inside that had been pulverized by the knife wind.

With a plop, the ghost-faced giant ape fell to the ground, and the corpse weighing thousands of pounds splashed a large amount of smoke and dust.

Zhao Ya slowly got up from a big tree next to him that had been smashed in two, and his face was a little pale.

The battle with the giant ape consumed a lot of his physical strength.

Especially the last blow, Zhao Ya exerted his energy to the peak, and only then successfully split the giant ape's head.

This is Zhao Ya, who has several internal organs. If it were someone else, it would be impossible to hold on until now, and they would even die of exhaustion when fighting with the giant ape.

Zhao Ya took out a piece of dried meat from his arms with trembling fingers, put it into his mouth, chewed it a little, and then swallowed it.

This is the seven-star blood eel dried meat that Zhao Ya specially prepared in advance for this battle.

After swallowing it, the surging blood quickly replenished Zhao Ya's physical strength.

The heart that was pounding like a war drum gradually calmed down.

Zhao Ya gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, and then he felt less exhausted.

After the battle just now, the strange beast in the woods had already run away.

Zhao Ya walked to the body of the giant ape, looked at its hideous face, and a trace of doubt flashed in his heart.

Just before the battle, he clearly saw the ghost-faced giant ape's eyes flashing with a retreat.

But why did it suddenly change its behavior and rush towards him like a beast?

Could it be that something was secretly commanding it?

Zhao Ya thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, Shen Dao, Nie Jingnian and others rushed into the woods with the martial arts school disciples.

When they saw that the nearly four-meter-tall ghost-faced giant ape was lying on the ground, they couldn't help but show shock.

Shen Dao was originally full of worries, afraid that his junior brother would encounter another accident.

So after fighting and repelling the beasts, he immediately rushed in.

But after seeing this scene, Shen Dao was silent for a moment, and then patted Zhao Ya on the shoulder.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

He didn't know what to say to his junior brother who was so strong that he was against the sky.

Shen Dao thought that even he couldn't do it, going into the forest alone and killing a four-level giant ape with his own strength.

As for the others, they were even more amazed and awed.

Someone got a few flatbed trucks for transporting food, put the giant ape's body on them, and then pushed them into the city.

When they heard that a four-level beast had died, the whole city was in an uproar.

Although it was just dawn, the streets were still full of people.

People looked at this huge beast and talked about it in fear and excitement.

"Hiss, it's so big, it's probably the legendary monster!" said an old man.

"Bah, what do you know, you little brat, this is a four-level beast, extremely powerful, if it hadn't been killed, it would have been crushed to death with just a finger like you." An older old man next to him scolded.

The old man who spoke first didn't dare to say anything.

The people next to him were no longer surprised by this.

Because these two old men are father and son, the younger one is 68 years old this year, and his name is Zhai Xiaobao.

The older one is 89 years old this year, and no one knows his name, but people call him Old Man Zhai.

At this age, he is already considered old in this world, and even officials have to show some respect, and no one dares to offend him.

At this time, Old Man Zhai looked at the warriors who followed the flatbed into the city and sighed.

"They are really a group of good men, but it's a pity that I am old. If I were a few years younger, I would definitely pick up swords and guns and go outside the city to fight these beasts."

"Dad, you are old but I am young, how about I go?" Zhai Xiaobao said.

"Get out, with your two tricks, you will only deliver food to these beasts if you go outside the city." Old Man Zhai cursed viciously.

At this time, Zhao Ya also entered the city.

He wanted to go home directly, but was stopped by Shang Jingchuan who came after hearing the news.

In Shang Jingchuan's words, it was not easy to win such a great victory, and it was the time to inspire people. How could you, as the person who made the greatest contribution, escape from the battlefield?

In desperation, Zhao Ya had to follow the team into the city.

As soon as they saw him, the crowd burst into cheers.

"Young Master Zhao, you are great!" This was a simple compliment.

"Has Young Master Zhao married?" This was a ulterior motive.

"Young Master Zhao is so handsome!" This was a statement of fact.

Zhao Ya greeted with a smile.

People also knew that he was very tired after a big battle, so they didn't dare to stop him and let him leave quickly.

After he left, old man Zhai couldn't help but sigh.

"This is how you should have a son!"

Zhai Xiaobao frowned when he heard this.

"Dad, if you want to talk about ability, you can still practice it, but that face is natural, I can't compare to it, it's all your fault that you didn't grow up well, and it's my fault..."

"You evil creature, do you really want to piss me off to death?" Old man Zhai roared and waved his cane.

But this Zhai Xiaobao was "experienced in the battlefield" and knew that he would definitely get beaten if he said this, so he ran away long ago.

Old man Zhai chased after him at a fast pace, and his steps were so vigorous that he didn't look like an old man in his eighties at all.

People sighed when they saw this.

"No wonder old man Zhai lives to such an old age, he can probably live to a hundred years old if he runs like this all day."

Zhao Ya naturally didn't know about this little episode. At this time, he returned home after politely declining Shang Jingchuan's enthusiastic invitation.

Zui'er also knew what happened outside the city and was waiting at the door.

When she saw Zhao Ya coming back, she greeted him with joy.

"Brother Xiaoya, you are so awesome."

Zhao Ya smiled.

He didn't feel much when others praised him.

But Zui'er was different.

This little girl often praised herself breathlessly.

Zhao Ya reached out and rubbed Zui'er's head.

"Go make me something to eat!"

"Yes, what do you want to eat, brother Ya?"

"Anything is fine!"

Zui'er went to cook excitedly.

Zhao Ya came to the box where the mother insects were raised. He opened it and saw that the mother insect had woken up and laid many round eggs behind her.

Zhao Ya picked up one and looked at it carefully.

He found that the eggs were larger than those raised with the bait he bought, and the color was close to green, like a piece of beautiful jade.

The aroma of blood and flesh emanating from it made Zhao Ya's appetite even more excited.

He tried to eat one, and after a little feeling, his face was happy.

This egg was better than before in terms of the purity of blood and qi and the amount of blood it contained.

It seems that the eggs laid by this mother insect are closely related to the bait it feeds.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ya couldn't help but think of the strange beasts he killed today.

Most of these strange beasts are in the second realm, but they are in large numbers, so some of them will definitely give birth to meat fields.

What will happen if these meat fields are used to feed this mother insect?

Unfortunately, Zhao Ya didn't find anything valuable from the fourth realm ghost-faced giant ape.

Except for some parts that can be used as medicine, there is almost no great value.

There is no way.

The higher the realm of the strange beast, the lower the probability of exploding meat fields.

But after reaching the fifth realm, the situation seems to be different.

Zhao Ya thought of the bead that the mysterious woman dug from the giant-winged blood bat.

What is that?

At this moment, Zui'er's surprised voice came from the courtyard.

"Master... Master, why are you here?"

Zhao Ya was startled and turned around to the courtyard.

As expected.

He saw Lu Dingtai and Meng Shiwen standing in the courtyard.

Zhao Ya walked over quickly and said in surprise: "Master, why are you here?"

Lu Dingtai laughed, "Why? Can't I come to your house?"

"Of course not, but if there is anything, you can send someone to call me over. How can I ask you to come in person?"

"Okay, there are so many red tapes. You killed a four-level giant ape this time, which can be regarded as a great honor for our Dingtai Martial Arts School. I am happy in my heart, so I naturally have to come and take a look." Lu Dingtai said with a smile on his face.

What he said was indeed the truth.

After hearing what happened outside the city, Lu Dingtai was very happy and brought Meng Shiwen here on a whim.

At this time, Shen Dao, Miao Shaocheng and Xu De also arrived.

The small courtyard became lively for a while.

"Come, go to Feixianju and order a banquet!" Lu Dingtai ordered with a smile.

"Today, the master and his disciples will have a good drink!"
