Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong
Chapter 837 - 838: The Giant Ape Retreats (Second Update!)

"Battle God Ape Clan?"

A voice of fear and low growl echoed from the giant ape’s mouth. The Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod was about to strike its body, but its speeding frame suddenly halted, made a sharp turn, and fled to the side. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace.

"What’s going on?"

Sun Wukong was stunned. When the giant ape fierce beast turned to flee just now, its left palm slapped the side of the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod. A surge of terrifying force almost knocked it away with a single hit.

Just this move made Sun Wukong realize that there was a qualitative difference between him and the giant ape fierce beast, one that couldn’t be bridged by skill!

But why did the giant ape fierce beast suddenly seem to have seen a ghost, so terrified that it didn’t even dare to fight him and fled directly?

And what exactly is the Battle God Ape Clan it mentioned?

A special group within the Monkey Tribe?

"Could it be that the giant ape fierce beast mistook me for someone from the Battle God Ape Clan?"

Sun Wukong thought, shaking his head, and turned back towards the way he had come. No matter what, the retreat of the giant ape fierce beast was good news. One less fierce beast meant their pressure wasn’t simply one plus one!

The other members of the Blue Spirit mercenary group and the followers had already engaged with the long snake fierce beast.

Just as Blue Spirit introduced to Sun Wukong, Gang Daimu was responsible for withstanding the attacks of the long snake fierce beast, firmly holding it in place and preventing it from attacking others. Zhao Jun hovered around the long snake fierce beast, seeking opportunities to assault it.

Zuo Xiaomiao, positioned outside the snake’s attack range, continuously drew his bow, gathering Primordial Qi from all directions into light arrows to shoot at the long snake fierce beast.

As for Blue Spirit, she was waving a staff, continuously casting streaks of light to enhance the states of the few, improving their overall conditions.

However, Blue Spirit was only focused on Zhao Jun and the two others. She had no time or inclination to care for the others trailing behind.

"This method of combined attack is quite impressive! The collective strength of individuals with different specialties is sufficient to challenge higher levels!"

In the Three Realms, there were also combined attack formations, but they required a specific formation to be maintained without any mistakes, otherwise, the formation would break and the combined power would not be exerted.

But the combined attack of this mercenary group in the Yuan Realm was different. Unlike the mercenary groups Sun Wukong encountered in the Demonic Realm, the Blue Spirit mercenary group emphasized the complementary strengths of team members, maximizing their respective advantages to create great combat power.

This situation was something Sun Wukong only encountered after coming to the Yuan Realm, finding it quite novel.

"Sun Wukong, what are you dazing for? Hurry and help!"

The cultivation of the long snake fierce beast was at the Domain Marshal level, a rank higher than Zhao Jun, the most powerful in the Blue Spirit mercenary group. Even with everyone’s help, Blue Spirit and the group were struggling, and Zhao Jun hadn’t found a good opportunity to launch a killing blow, even struggling to get close.

Every time he got close, after two attacks, the snake’s tail would sweep over, along with ice spikes emerging from all directions, forcing Zhao Jun to retreat. The long snake fierce beast had an ice cold attribute, causing the ice spikes to be extremely powerful. Once hit, the body would be penetrated, frozen, and shattered into pieces.

With Blue Spirit’s party, there were already quite a few unlucky ones hit by the ice spikes, reduced to fragments rolling on the ground.

Seeing Sun Wukong return, standing aside with a face full of admiration and no intention to help, Zhao Jun’s face turned green, shouting out loudly.

"Void-Breaking Moon Eyes!"

Sun Wukong snapped back to reality, a look of embarrassment flashing in his eyes. He had been watching the spectacle and hadn’t noticed the group’s plight, realizing he needed to help now.

Immediately, Sun Wukong activated his Void-Breaking Moon Eyes, examining the weak points of the long snake fierce beast. He discovered that the weak point wasn’t in the usual snake’s seven-inch proportional spot, but rather under its head at a small light green dot, where a scale’s color differed slightly. If not for the Void-Breaking Moon Eyes enhancing his vision, it would have been hard to notice!

"Attack the light green scale under its head, that’s its weak point!"

Sun Wukong shouted while charging towards the long snake fierce beast. Though the beast’s cultivation and strength were profound, its spiritual wisdom was not high. If he could hit the vital spot, Sun Wukong believed he could inflict fatal damage!

"Light green scale?"

Zhao Jun and the others were puzzled, their eyes turned towards the snake’s head, bewildered. "Where is the light green scale?"

The long snake fierce beast’s scales were inherently green and extremely hard. Zhao Jun’s Dragon Spear leaves only a white spot. Sun Wukong suddenly mentioned a light green scale, which they couldn’t see initially.

"Under the snake head!"

Sun Wukong grew anxious, pulling a hair from the back of his head and blowing it, transforming into a small insect that flew towards the long snake. Landing on the light green scale, the bright red insect was conspicuous, but had no attack power, nor much weight, going unnoticed by the snake, but pointing Zhao Jun and the others to the target.

"Zuo Xiaomiao, aim for the scale beneath the red insect!"

Zhao Jun yelled, flashing closer to the snake, dodging two attacks from it, then thrusting his Dragon Spear towards the light green scale where the red insect was perched, like a meteor chasing the moon.

"Hit!"

Blue Spirit’s eyes sparkled with joy, the Dragon Spear tip was only a foot away from the light green scale!

"Retreat quickly!"

Suddenly, Sun Wukong shouted loudly, the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod in his hand didn’t strike the snake, but instead extended and smashed into Zhao Jun’s chest, halting his forward momentum and making him step back.

Simultaneously, a string of ice spikes shot from the ground where Zhao Jun stood. If Sun Wukong hadn’t knocked Zhao Jun back, he would have been skewered by the ice spikes!

"This demon snake is indeed cunning!"

Cold sweat oozed from Zhao Jun’s forehead, but he didn’t stand still. He stepped around the ice spikes and once again thrust his spear at the light green scale.
