Chapter 86: How to capture an elephant

As the old ape threw his punch, his other hand tightly gripped a bone arrow, which was his true killing move.

Who would have thought that Xu Hei wouldn't confront him head-on but would retreat instead?

This cautious approach left the old ape with no chance to launch a sneak attack, making him extremely frustrated.

"Snake Demon, I don't want that territory anymore, so stop pushing me," the old ape said in a deep voice.

Xu Hei merely sneered.

"You lured the Golden Eagle to kill me, enticed the mongoose to kill me, and even tried to have the Wild Giant Elephant kill me. And now you say I'm the one being aggressive? Don't you find that laughable?"

Xu Hei had no intention of letting the old ape off and didn't want to waste words.

His eyes turned cold, and his flying sword shot out, accompanied by a dozen scales.

At the same time, a rock golem appeared, casting the Flying Stone Technique. Countless granite stones were hurled at the old ape, not aiming for the center but spreading out to block any possible escape routes.

Each flying stone had a Fire Explosion Talisman attached, which was no joke and could be deadly.

When Xu Hei made a move, it was a thunderous strike.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A series of violent explosions ensued. The old ape wielded a stick, continuously swinging it to deflect all the approaching magical artifacts and stones, but he was still severely affected, spitting blood and having countless wounds cut by the scales.

"Earth Prison Technique!"

With a thought, Xu Hei made the earth rise and wrap around the old ape.

The old ape was tenacious, pulling out a flying sword to cut through the Earth Prison Technique.

"Earth Sink!"

Xu Hei used another Earth Element Spell, turning the ground beneath the old ape into a swamp, swallowing him up while countless earth spikes pierced toward him.

Wind Blade Technique, Fire Snake Technique, Lightning Strike Technique... Xu Hei unleashed various spells as if they cost nothing. He even took pills and used all kinds of stored talismans, igniting and releasing them.

The granite golem kept throwing rocks with Fire Explosion Talismans at the old ape, smashing and detonating them. A small lizard also appeared, spitting spiritual light at the old ape.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

It was as if an army was besieging a single person, with continuous explosions and deafening roars, making it impossible to see anything clearly. The ground shook as if the sky was falling and the earth was collapsing.

In the sky, Man Jin was dumbfounded.

He had never seen a demonic beast fight like this.

A gang fight? No! A duel? That didn't seem right either!

Who fights like this?

This was beyond ridiculous! Even human battles weren't this absurd!

This was Xu Hei's full-force attack, holding nothing back and using all his killing moves. He was even prepared to take a Divine Explosion Pill to fight to the death.

But the old ape didn't seem worthy of that.

"I hate this!"

Finally, after a heart-wrenching scream, the old ape fell silent, his aura dissipating.

Xu Hei continued his assault until his True Qi was nearly exhausted. Only then did he take a Rejuvenation Pill and send the golem to investigate.

By now, the area ahead was a wasteland, leaving a massive crater a hundred feet wide, filled with pits and darkness, as if it had been bombarded by countless artillery shells, leaving nothing behind.

The old ape's flesh was gone, leaving only a headless skeleton, indicating that its bones were extraordinary and incredibly tough.

Xu Hei searched around but found no trace of the ivory bone arrow, suggesting the old ape had hidden it.

"This old ape had a storage artifact!"

Xu Hei's eyes flashed as he carefully examined the remains.

Not long after, he dug out a small black jade stone, the size of a fingernail, from one of the old ape's ribs.

"This is..."

Xu Hei's pupils contracted.

He had found an identical black jade stone on Zhao Yiduo, but this one was much smaller, only the size of a fingernail.

Xu Hei pondered for a moment, erased the imprint on it, and probed it with his Divine Sense.

Sure enough, Xu Hei discovered a space inside, about twenty meters long, wide, and high, totaling eight thousand cubic meters.

It contained many miscellaneous items, including an ivory tusk, though only a small part remained.

Next to the tusk were two bone arrows and a longbow.

"This is the tusk of the Spirit-Devouring Elephant," Xu Hei thought to himself.

The old ape had quite a collection of oddities, many of which Xu Hei had never seen before. He planned to study them slowly when he returned.

At this moment, Man Jin descended from the sky.

After witnessing the battle, his feelings were complex. It wasn't just that Xu Hei had killed the old ape, but the way they fought had completely overturned his understanding.

The combat power of these two demonic beasts far exceeded their apparent cultivation levels.

Especially Xu Hei, whose methods were bizarre and highly astute, knowing when to fight, when to retreat, when to feint, and when to strike for real.

This deeply shocked Man Jin.

Although his cultivation was strong, he was far inferior in these techniques. Otherwise, Hua Yuntian wouldn't have been saved.

"Benefactor, according to the rules set by our ancestors, you have saved so many of my elephant tribe members. I should give you an ivory tusk as a thank-you gift. Please accept it!"

Man Jin raised his trunk and sprayed, dropping two glowing objects to the ground, revealing two large tusks.

It was clear that Man Jin's trunk contained a storage artifact.

Xu Hei looked at the two tusks.

One was entirely blue, with a layer of frost spreading over it, making the ground crackle as if it could freeze the air.

The other was fiery red, with the surrounding space slightly distorted, as if an invisible fire was burning.

"This is... the twin tusks of the Ice-Fire Giant Elephant."

Xu Hei recalled what Hei Huang had told him about a type of elephant.

The Ice-Fire Giant Elephant, once active in the polar regions, naturally possessed both ice and fire spiritual roots. It was very rare and had long been extinct on this continent, only occasionally seen in some remote areas.

The owner of these tusks must have been on the verge of Qi Condensation, similar to Man Jin.

These were even more precious than the old ape's Spirit-Devouring Elephant tusks!

"This gift is too valuable," Xu Hei said.

"This is the rule set by our ancestors. Please accept it!"

Man Jin said solemnly, "Our elephant tribe survives by making many friends. When I fall in the future, my tusks will also be left to those who have done good for our tribe."

In truth, if he hadn't just witnessed that battle, he would have only given one tusk at most.

But after that battle, his perspective was shaken. Xu Hei was worth it.

Xu Hei no longer hesitated and put the tusks into his storage bag. Then, he took out some pills as a return gift.

"These pills have their effects written on the bottles. They should be useful to your elephant tribe."

Xu Hei had obtained so many pills from the Purple Mist Sect that he couldn't use them all. Sharing some was no big deal.

Xu Hei believed that saving the elephant herd was a simple act, and he needed to give something in return.

"This..."

Man Jin was stunned.

Pills were nothing to humans and could be easily obtained, but they were incredibly precious to demonic beasts, making it impossible for him to refuse—they were highly beneficial to his tribe.

Man Jin had given away many tusks, but this was the first time he had received a return gift, causing his emotions to surge and shaking him once again.

"Benefactor, how can I accept this?"

Man Jin said, his voice trembling with excitement.

Xu Hei smiled wryly. Despite his strength, Man Jin was straightforward and honest, holding no grudges and repaying kindness without any scheming.

For his benefactor, he had no reservations. Such precious tusks were given without hesitation.

The old ape had asked him to kill someone, and he had even come out personally, traveling a long distance.

"If you consider me a friend, there's no need to be polite," Xu Hei said.

Man Jin took a deep breath, put away the pills, and said firmly, "Benefactor, say no more. From now on, even if you ask me to climb a mountain of swords or plunge into a sea of fire, I won't hesitate! You are my friend, and that is final!"
