Chapter 308: 10 The Terrifying Old Ape



He could clearly see that the two Demonic Beasts were not as composed as they seemed, their eyes filled with vigilance as they stared intently at the sachet on Lin Jing’s chest.

The aura emanating from within caused them to feel a fear that seemed to originate deep within their bones.

It was a suppression of their bloodline, something they could not avoid, even after gaining a modicum of wisdom.

And in this man’s hands was the very object they had both been vying for.

The two beasts understood that the vine was of great use to them, yet now it was in that person’s possession.

For the moment, Lin Jing also found himself unsure of what to do next.

He took in the fear in the eyes of the Demonic Beasts and their greed for the Eternal Life Vine one by one.

At this point, even if he wanted to back down, it was no longer possible.

Lin Jing said nothing further and, in front of the two beasts, directly removed the homemade sachet from his chest.

After the sachet was removed, the two beasts shrank back a bit more, and Lin Jing clearly saw that they seemed even more afraid.

Seeing this, Lin Jing decided to go all in and directly opened the sachet, taking out the Divine Phoenix feather from inside.

However.

When they saw the feather, the fear in the eyes of the beasts finally overcame their greed, and they beat a hasty retreat backwards, frenzied.

Eventually, after two shrill cries of alarm, the two beasts flew off into the sky simultaneously.

After the two beasts had left, only Lin Jing, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, remained at the scene.

With the departure of the beasts, Lin Jing came to understand the limits of the Divine Phoenix feather.

If he were to encounter higher-level, more formidable Demonic Beasts, the Divine Phoenix feather probably wouldn’t work.

Because, the higher the tier of the Demonic Beast, the greater its wisdom.

Lin Jing was currently just bluffing with the Divine Phoenix feather; if the Demonic Beasts didn’t fall for it, he would truly be in mortal danger.

Higher-tier Demonic Beasts with wisdom would naturally distinguish Lin Jing’s true level of Cultivation and see through his bluff.

The two beasts he’d encountered were simply overawed by the bloodline suppression of the Divine Phoenix feather and thus didn’t dare to act recklessly.

Having realized this, Lin Jing immediately decided not to venture further into the area.

It was better to leave this place as quickly as possible.

As for the small island in the lake ahead, Lin Jing no longer had any interest in exploring it.

Having finished his deliberation, Lin Jing repacked the sachet and then turned around, leaving the place to head outside.

However, just as Lin Jing had started to leave, he hadn’t walked more than a few steps…

Suddenly.

Without sound or warning, a Demonic Beast appeared in mid-air.

A Demonic Beast that was not large in size.

This beast, similar in size to a human, resembled an old monkey. It appeared immensely aged, hunched over like an elderly human, leaning on a walking stick, its feet hovering above the ground without any Magical Treasure, simply standing in the vacuum of space.

Not a hint of aura emanated from its body.

As if it had never existed at all.

Upon seeing this old monkey, Lin Jing instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

When had this old monkey appeared? He hadn’t noticed it at all.

Although there wasn’t a trace of aura from the other party, Lin Jing didn’t dare to let his guard down in the slightest.

It was precisely the absence of aura that made Lin Jing feel the true terror of this old monkey.

Then, the old monkey made its move.

It reached out its hand, and Lin Jing’s sachet flew up, aiming to float towards the old monkey.

But just at that moment, something unexpected happened.

The sachet suddenly exploded, revealing the Divine Phoenix feather within.

At that moment, the Divine Phoenix feather was ablaze with burgeoning flames. Within those flames, the feather slowly grew larger.

And then, it actually transformed into the illusion of a nine-colored, resplendent phoenix, no…

It was the illusion of a Divine Phoenix…

The Divine Phoenix silhouette circled above Lin Jing’s head, then transformed into a streak of light, rushing into Lin Jing’s brow.

Subsequently, a tiny Divine Phoenix Mark formed at Lin Jing’s brow.

A moment later, even the Divine Phoenix Mark vanished without a trace, as if it had never appeared.

The old ape opposite retracted its hand, stared intently at Lin Jing, and asked,

“The legendary Divine Phoenix hasn’t appeared for millions of years. How come you have a Divine Phoenix Feather bestowed by it?”

Lin Jing felt a force locking onto him, aware that any slight movement of his own would be detected by it.

Lin Jing understood that if he didn’t answer this question well, it was very likely that the old ape would slay him on the spot.

Therefore, Lin Jing didn’t hide anything and directly answered,

“I lived with her for a while, and this Divine Phoenix Feather was given to me when she was about to leave.”

As Lin Jing spoke, the old ape kept its eyes fixed on Lin Jing; only after Lin Jing finished speaking did the old ape nod slightly.

The old ape nodded at Lin Jing and said,

“Hmm…”

“I can tell that you are not lying.”

After speaking, it immediately followed up with a sigh,

“Perhaps Immortal Crossing Island has been isolated from the world for too long, to the point that even the rebirth of the Divine Phoenix has gone unnoticed by us.”

Then, it sized up Lin Jing with a slightly disdainful expression,

“Your Cultivation…”

“Is really too low.”

Facing the disdain of the fearsomely powerful old ape, Lin Jing had no solution but to say,

“Um…”

“I was just lucky enough to encounter a Divine Phoenix who was concealing her identity and undergoing trials.”

The old ape nodded again and continued,

“Indeed.”

“The fact that you were able to spend time with the legendary Divine Phoenix is truly an incredible stroke of luck.”

“However…”

At this point, the old ape’s tone shifted before continuing,

“You’ve received the protection of the Divine Phoenix, and ordinarily, I could have spared your life, but you not only intruded upon Immortal Crossing Island but also stole the treasures that belong to us.”

“Tell me…”

“What should we do about this?”

As the old ape said this, Lin Jing felt a mysterious and horrifying aura strike toward him unexpectedly.

However, though the aura was frightening, when it came upon him, it didn’t exert too much pressure, and the old ape opposite showed no sign of any action.

Lin Jing knew that this surely meant the old ape had held back.

It seemed the situation was negotiable after all; the old ape was probably just showcasing its strength to intimidate him.

Otherwise, it would have attacked already.

Confronted by the old ape whose level of cultivation was unknown, Lin Jing hurriedly lowered his stance, bowed to the old ape ahead, and said,

“I would appreciate the elder’s guidance…”

As he spoke, Lin Jing even took out the freshly acquired Eternal Life Vine from his hand and passed it over.

Although it was somewhat painful to give it up, faced with this predicament,

When it’s time to bow, one must bow.

Lin Jing certainly didn’t want to provoke this terrifying old ape over the Eternal Life Vine and risk his own life.

After all, his own life was of the utmost importance.

The old ape looked at Lin Jing, nodded slightly, but did not take the Eternal Life Vine. Instead, it said to Lin Jing,

“You do a task for me, and I will not only spare your life but also gift you this Eternal Life Vine.”
