The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Chapter 45 Hunt Evil Apes (Part One)

However, this was no easy task. Not only were the evil apes a couple, they could have been anywhere

from the valley to the place where the earth spirit fruits took hold.

There was also the problem that they were several times stronger than the average level two diabolic

beasts.

No one in the Evil Ape Hunting Team was actually sure that he would be able to fight them.

Most of the level two diabolic beasts were highly intelligent and it would have been big trouble indeed if

the two apes were ready to ambush the team.

The idea kept them all on their toes.

Austin also released his spiritual sense, which allowed him to sense everything in a six-hundred-foot

radius around him.

Along the way, there were no signs of the two evil apes.

After the team had ventured about a mile into the valley, they suddenly found that it was filled with a

sort of milky mist. Everything looked hazy and there was a wet, damp smell in the air.

"Be careful, everyone! They could be hiding anywhere."

Ralf reminded the others coldly.

A few dozen meters forward, they saw that a heap of rubble lay behind some bushes.

Behind the rubble lay a hillside with green vines and a milky mist covering it.

Just as they were about to pass through the rubble, Austin suddenly stopped.

His spiritual sense felt that at a concave ground on the hillside shrouded completely by thick mist, and

there was an evil ape with a pair of blood-red eyes staring at the team.

"Watch out!"

Austin warned loudly. Right now, they were all in the same boat, and since there were two of the apes,

they could not afford to lose anyone.

Everyone was nervous. When they heard Austin's cautionary call, they instantly ran back a dozen

steps.

As soon as they moved, the very ground they were standing on shook fiercely, as a huge figure rushed

down with great momentum.

There appeared a three-foot-deep pit on the ground, with star-like cracks spread around it and out of

the blue, a huge black evil ape materialized in front of everyone.

About six or nine feet tall, and completely covered in long jet-black hairs, the ape was a sight to behold

and was surrounded by a cloud of scarlet miasma.

The fangs stuck out of its fearsome big mouth and a pair of giant blood-red pupils was casting a brutal

killing intent around it.

"Boom! Boom!"

The evil ape hammered wildly on his thick, strong chest, almost as if it was showing off its power to the

intruders.

Gasping loudly, it stared at the team with its blood-red eyes, clearly marking them as targets. It was

clear that he had no intention of letting the team survive.

It had become annoyed by the constant barrage of intruders into the valley over the past two or three

days.

Looking at the fierce evil ape, all the members of the team felt a cold shiver down their spine.

"The beast's alone right now. Let's beat it together!"

Marvin and Ralf yelled almost at the same time and dashed toward the evil ape like two big birds.

The remainder of the group did not hesitate any more now. With fight or flight instincts kicking in, they

were quite determined to beat the ape together, especially since it was alone right now.

Ralf was the first to go near the evil ape. He suddenly threw out a white iron chain straight toward its

throat.

Becoming restless, the ape started screaming and stretched out its hand in order to grab the chain, but

was unsuccessful.

Somehow, the chain was able to behave like a living creature, and could turn in midair.

It moved away from the big palm of the evil ape, and swooshed along the dark, sturdy arm of the ape in

order to wrap around its body.

With a wave of its stout arm, the evil ape emitted some scarlet miasma and easily shook off the white

iron chain.

All Ralf felt was a huge force that passed across the chain and he stumbled several steps back.

While Ralf was fought back with the chain, Marvin shot his jade fan at the evil ape's eyes, which was

one of the weakest parts of its body.

However, the attempt was thwarted when the ape waved its long arm and hit Marvin's jade fan with

such great force that it slipped out of his grasp.

At the same time, its other hand flew straight towards Marvin's head with brutal force and fearsome

ferocity.

In the face of this crisis, Marvin instinctively lay down on the ground and rolled a few feet away from the

ape before he stood up once again with a pale face.

No sooner had the battle started than the two highest level members of the Evil Ape Hunting Team

were beaten back simultaneously. Everyone was startled by the ape's terrible power.

And if one were to notice things, Marvin's situation seemed worse. Though, that did not mean Ralf was

more powerful than Marvin. It was merely because Ralf's weapon gave him a little advantage.

His chain was longer and therefore, was more suited for a long-range attack. In contrast, Marvin's jade

fan was shorter and this meant that he had to attack the evil ape at a close range. This was proving a

Herculean task as the ape could have swatted him down like a fly.

"Don't do hand-to-hand combat against it! Try to engage it with hit-and-run style strategy."

Ralf yelled at the others.

Without hesitation, Marvin immediately took out a glittering silver trident.

This was a spiritual weapon!

As Marvin waved his silver trident, it was shining with a soft vital energy light.

From that bright glow, everyone immediately recognized that it was a spiritual weapon. Since spiritual

weapons were extremely rare, they guessed that this was a low-grade spiritual weapon of level one.

Austin swallowed his saliva with his eager eyes fixed at Marvin's trident.

He had yearned for a spiritual weapon for a long time, but even a low-grade spiritual weapon of level

one was a luxury for him to afford.

After taking out the trident, Marvin became a lot more confident and rushed towards the evil ape.

The rest of the team also besieged the beast. There were six people in the group and all of them were

rushing around it, looking for an opportunity to strike.

Surrounded by the group which was completely dwarfed by its body, the ape had to face every sort of

attack.

It clapped madly at the crowd with its huge palms, turning everything into a mess due to the shock

wave.

The stones were stomped into pieces, and several stone pieces found themselves flying all the way

over to the group.

In a short while, the ape had already been attacked by hammer, saber, sword, trident and chain, and a

lot of vital energy had already filled the air.

No one dared to confront its attack head-on, though. They all tried to dodge away, and even if they

couldn't avoid ape, they resisted its attack nonetheless.

All six of them were united like never before since they knew that their chances were slim already and if

a single one of them got hurt, success would be farther away from them. Moreover, not only would they

fail to get the earth spirit fruits, they would also be killed mercilessly.

Besides, there was probably another evil ape hiding somewhere, ready to attack them at any time.

So, as soon as someone was in distress, the others would try their best to save him.
