Chapter 384: Chapter 191: Celestial Storm Magic Ape_1

A colossal figure standing a full three meters tall emanated an aggressive aura of brutality; in its right hand, it gripped a sturdy trunk five meters long. The trunk was clearly no ordinary wood. Its surface still bore jumbled marks of tree bark, but it was perfectly straight, with subtly emanating brownish-yellow light.

This was a magical beast resembling an ape, its whole body covered in knotted muscles, and it appeared incredibly robust. If it were not for the golden fur covering its entire body and reptilian mouth, its eyes imbued with a hint of ferocity would have nearly made it indistinguishable from a human. Even the way it stood was reminiscent of a human.

Around ten meters in front of it, several people were scattered about in disarray; their conditions didn’t look good.

Red light flickered over each one of their bodies, reflecting different expressions in their eyes - some showed defiance, some pain, others fear, and some resignation. Without a doubt, this was their closest brush with death.

When the three instructors had announced from the air earlier that the demon hunting team would face four level nine magical beasts, they initially thought that if they had to choose one opponent from the four, the Celestial Storm Magic Ape would be the best choice. It wasn’t a flying magical beast like the thunderbird, nor did it have the strength of the luminous griffin or the unrivaled spiritual power of the Evil Eye Tyrant. At least, it seemed like an opponent they could contend with.

However, it was only after they truly came across the Celestial Storm Magic Ape that they realized what a level nine magical beast actually was.

Any magical beast that could evolved to level nine practically lacked any weakness. The Celestial Storm Magic Ape was extremely formidable in terms of speed, strength, offense, defense, and burst of power, and it also possessed exceptional intelligence. The team thought that their coordination had improved over time, but in the face of such a powerful adversary, they were absolutely helpless and completely incapable of resisting.

By now, the Knight of their team had already fallen into unconsciousness, having endured the majority of the attacks. The Warrior’s arm hung loosely by his side, evidently broken. The Priest looked pale as a sheet from consuming too much spiritual power, having barely managed to hold on due to his rather potent healing abilities.

The assassin was hanging from a nearby branch, his body twitching occasionally. The only ones still relatively intact were the Mage and the Summoner. There was only one summoned beast left standing before the Summoner, and it no longer possessed much fighting power. The Mage, too, looked as pale as death due to excessive consumption of magic power. The entire team had been driven to their wits’ end.

A bitter smile graced the Mage’s lips, remembering how her comrades once boldly declared that of the four level nine magical beasts, the Celestial Storm Magic Ape would be the easiest to handle. But was that truly the case? The Celestial Storm Magic Ape was not only powerful, it even wielded a weapon. Though not a real equipment, its material was certainly of superior quality. Coupled with the Spirit Palisade of the Celestial Storm Magic Ape, it was practically indestructible.

The long stick in the hand of the Celestial Storm Magic Ape was slowly lifting upward, and among the team that had exhausted all its trump cards, there was simply no one left to resist its powerful force.

At that moment, abruptly, there was a slight fluctuation in the eyes of the Celestial Storm Magic Ape. It seemed to have sensed something, as its eyes suddenly glowed brightly. Following that, a beam of golden light shot out from the distant forest and fell right upon it, creating a connection resembling a bridge.

The Mage, who had already started feeling somewhat hopeless and regretting not signaling for help earlier, cried out in ecstatic relief, "Holy Diversion Spirit Furnace."

Yes, wasn’t that the unique effect of the Holy Diversion Spirit Furnace? From the forest, a figure slowly emerged. He was tall and sturdy, his whole body covered in glistening armor with a crystal-like texture. Standing all of three meters tall, the four transparent wings on his back were perhaps the most peculiar feature, allowing him to hover in the air. Because the armor even covered his face, his features were obscured. Still, this flashy figure was enough to stun the devastated Mage.

What was that? It looked like a human, but why was it so enormous?

Long Dangdang, in the transformed state of the Icy Moon Angel, slowly raised the Divine Hammer in his hand. The surface of the Divine Hammer burst into light, spewing a dazzling white light that shot up five meters high. It condensed in the air to form a giant Sacred Sword with the Divine Hammer acting as the handle. All the light elements in the air congregated rapidly around his body at an astonishing speed.

The pupils of the Celestial Storm Magic Ape contracted slightly, but the next moment, its figure vanished.

It was too fast. Even in his Icy Moon Angel state, Long Dangdang was only able to catch an afterimage hurtling towards him. The long stick in the Celestial Storm Magic Ape’s hand swung high, carrying with it an air of terror as it chopped towards him.

It was just for a split second, but Long Dangdang instantly deduced that although the Celestial Storm Magic Ape lacked the energy attribute of the thunderbird’s thunder and lightning, it surpassed the thunderbird in terms of strength and power.

Based on his experience of fighting against the thunderbird before, Long Dangdang knew very well that a level nine magical beast like this was something he was currently not capable of facing head-on. The four wings on his back fluttered vigorously, as he used the Slide Step to dodge towards the side and back. The massive Sacred Sword in his hand swung, not aiming at the Celestial Storm Magic Ape, but rather cutting off the aura locking onto him.
