"Rumble... When
Long Chen's large hand pressed down on the black ape's head, the ape seemed to go mad. Its entire black fur turned dark red, its aura instantly multiplied, and its violent power shattered the earthquake.
The black ape's eyes were bloodshot, as if mad, wildly shaking its head and slapping its palms wildly, entering a berserk state.
Long Chen's large hand tightly sucked on its head, his dragon blood power erupting, striving to plant the slave seal.
It turned out that Long Chen's pill was a Soul-Calming Pill, the most commonly used pill for taming pets.
For this Nine Heavens Passage, Long Chen prepared countless pills for everyone—healing, detoxifying, breaking obstacles, taming spirits, and even various kinds of poison pills.
Of course, Long Chen also kept it in reserve himself. This Soul-Calming Pill was used to seal pet souls and facilitate planting slave seals.
This elixir was refined by the Qiankun Cauldron. Although not a supreme pill, it was at the supreme Golden Core level. Even Saint-level magical beasts would be affected.
Especially when the beast's power began to decline, the impact was even greater. Long Chen seized the opportunity, unleashed the power of dragon blood, and was about to plant a slave mark on the black giant ape.
But Long Chen discovered that the black giant ape was fiercely resisting and had entered a berserk state. If this continued, it would die from overexerting its power. Even if it wasn't, it would basically be ruined and unable to become a pet.
With danger lurking here, having a Saint-level magical beast as companions was like having another chance to survive. At this moment, Long Chen was giving his all to plant the Slave Seal.
"Roar!"
But the black giant ape refused to submit, which shocked and angered Long Chen. He used dragon blood to plant a slave seal. Normally, most magical beasts would submit, since that was true dragon essence blood. For them, submitting to the dragon clan was nothing to be ashamed of.
"No, we can't use the Dragon Blood Seed Seal anymore. If this keeps up, it's doomed." Long Chen's expression changed.
But if he didn't use dragon blood and instead used soul power to plant the slave seal, that would consume a huge toll on Long Chen. Additionally, he had to constantly use soul power to lock down the black giant ape to prevent it from suddenly devouring its master. That would seriously affect Long Chen's combat power, and in that case, the pet's value would be reduced.
"Exchange for purple blood and Seven-Colored Supreme blood trial."
"Buzz!"
Purple energy surged behind Long Chen, and the golden mark in his palm turned purple. Then, an unexpected scene unfolded: the power of purple blood erupted, and the already berserk black giant ape instantly calmed down.
It no longer struggled violently; its body continued to tremble, but it no longer attacked recklessly. The purple mark in Long Chen's hand slowly seeped into its skull, directly penetrating its bloodline.
"Woo."
When the purple mark in Long Chen's hand fully penetrated its body, it began to become docile and actually lay flat on the ground.
Long Chen was both surprised and delighted. He hadn't expected his purple blood to so easily plant the slave mark. If he'd known, he wouldn't have wasted that effort.
At this moment, Lei Ling'er and Huo Ling'er also withdrew their power, quietly watching the magical beast that had fought them for a whole day and night. The previous rage had vanished, and now it was extremely docile.
But by now, it was no longer as imposing as before; its shiny fur was almost burned out by Huo Ling'er.
There were hundreds of wounds on its body, blood flowing through, and thunder symbols swirling inside the wounds, preventing it from healing. That was Lei Ling'er's doing.
It must be said, this black giant ape was incredibly powerful. Even with Lei Ling'er and Huo Ling'er's full-force attacks, neither could cause it any fatal damage.
Long Chen had Lei Ling'er and Huo Ling'er withdraw the thunder and fire power from the black giant ape, then fed it some pills to help it recover quickly.
However, this black giant ape had previously entered a berserk state and was heavily consumed. Full recovery was not something that could be achieved in a day or two.
Long Chen stayed where to rest, letting Lei Ling'er and Huo Ling'er rest well. After all, even after flipping the big battle, they were exhausted.
Unfortunately, Long Chen condensed the slave seal with his bloodline, not with soul power. As a result, he couldn't learn the black giant ape's memories.
Long Chen kept feeding the black giant ape medicine, even giving it a Holy Light Snow Lotus Pill. After three days, the black giant ape finally recovered to seventy to eighty percent.
By now, Long Chen had already scraped all the immortal gold ore away. He even found several rare herbs that had become extinct in the outside world. After confirming nothing was missed, he stood on the black giant ape's shoulder and began to explore the surroundings.
Although it had a black giant ape as a pet, Long Chen still dared not be careless, because just moments ago, the black ape suddenly stopped moving forward, pointing ahead with a look of fear.
Long Chen immediately understood that ahead was the territory of a terrifying magical beast. It didn't dare to approach, but judging by its fearful expression, it was clear it was no match for the owner of that territory.
With no other choice, Long Chen had to change course. The black giant ape was also extremely fast, running at full speed and not much slower than Long Chen's. However, it kept running and jumping, standing on its shoulders, making it very bumpy.
This was a strange world. Long Chen could only let the black giant ape run wild; he needed to understand the surroundings first.
What Long Chen wanted most now was to encounter the stone creatures that had once thrown him the immortal gold. If he could interact with them, he could quickly understand this world.
Suddenly, the black ape slowed down, its gaze became cautious, and it let out a low, whimpering growl, its fur standing on end.
"Roar!"
At that moment, a furious roar came from afar, and the roar was exactly the same as its own roar. Immediately after, another giant black ape charged out, looking exactly like it.
"Roar!"
The black giant ape charged out, and the black ape beneath Long Chen's feet roared in fury. In an instant, its blood and energy erupted as it charged forward.
"Damn it, did you bring me here to get revenge on you?" Long Chen was stunned. Clearly, these two black giant apes were old rivals, yet they had brought him to their territory.
"Boom!"
With a thunderous explosion, the two black giant apes collided, their massive fists swinging fiercely. The violent force caused the surrounding mountains to explode with a roar, and the surging shockwaves shot straight into the clouds.
"This is a total sucker!"
Long Chen cursed loudly, but at this moment, the two black giant apes had already started fighting. Moreover, it was obvious that Long Chen's black apes had not fully recovered yet, and the first move put him at a disadvantage.
"Come out and fight!"
Long Chen had no choice but to immediately summon Lei Ling'er and Huo Ling'er, while also summoning his own Seven-Star Battle Body. Four against one, instantly giving them an absolute advantage.
"Pfft"
Lei Ling'er wielded her thunderous sword, seized an opportunity, and stabbed through the black ape's eyeball. The giant ape immediately collapsed to the ground, motionless.
"Whoosh."
Long Chen hurried to the black giant ape, and the twoForm hand seals, and soul power emerges.
"Soul Search"
