C191 The Last Trial

Rumble!

Ten days later, in a dense forest deep within the middle region of the Southern Ferocious Land, shouts of battle soared into the sky, and the sounds of explosions shook the wilderness.

Looking from afar, one could see the blood colored Yuan Qi waves surging violently in the forest. They were like fireworks blooming in the dense forest, and their brilliance was exceptionally dazzling.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

During this period of time, the Profound Beast's furious roar could be heard from time to time, shaking the leaves until they fell to the ground. The sound could be heard from far away, making one feel fearful.

There was a type of Profound Beast called Herculean Vajra Ape that lived in this dense forest. They were comparable to ordinary apes. Their appearance was no different, but they were much larger in size. An adult Herculean Vajra Ape was about three to four meters tall, and its size was huge.

Moreover, they were very strong, and could even be said to have extraordinary strength. They could easily tear apart tigers, leopards, stones, and uproot trees, and so on. Their combat strength was extremely formidable. And this was also the origin of their names.

The Herculean Vajra Ape belonged to a type of Profound Rank Profound Beast. Due to their nimble limbs and their innate divine strength, under normal circumstances, even an Earth Rank Profound Beast wouldn't dare to casually provoke such a large group of Herculean Vajra Ape.

This was because not only did they live in groups, but their attack power was also extremely high. Their bodies were nimble and very difficult to deal with. The Herculean Vajra Ape was exceptionally sensitive in battle. Usually, it was very difficult for a Profound Beast that was higher level than them to defeat them in terms of speed. Not to mention hurting them.

One could imagine how high the attack power of a large group of them was. What kind of terrifying scene would that be? It was likely that an Earth Grade Profound Beast had a powerful defensive ability. I can only run away or die of exhaustion.

Therefore, this dense forest was not just a paradise for Herculean Vajra Ape. It was also a forbidden area in Southern Ferocious Land. There were no signs of human habitation here, and even other Profound Beast were rare. He didn't dare to barge into this place, or else he would be torn in half by the furious Herculean Vajra Ape.

But now, the peace had been broken, and someone had come here. They were going to start a war with the Herculean Vajra Ape. A loud explosion erupted from the dense forest, as well as the roar of the Herculean Vajra Ape. It was easy to guess how intense the battle was inside.

When they got closer, they could see a human figure running back and forth in the dense forest. He was fighting in a roundabout manner within the Herculean Vajra Ape group, constantly launching fierce attacks. His speed was very fast, and his movement technique was very agile. Even if he was caught in the dense rain of attacks from the Herculean Vajra Ape group, and there's a way to avoid it and launch a fierce counterattack. Boom! Some of the Herculean Vajra Ape were sent flying with blood spurting out of their mouths.

This figure was naturally Duanmu Kuang. Ten days ago, when he had fought with the serpent-faced lions until he had passed out from shock, he had been brought here by Lyi Hentian. After five days of recuperation, the injuries on his body were not only as good as before. Furthermore, his Yuan Qi had become stronger and more solid, and his physical body had also improved greatly.

Following that, Duanmu Kuang was once again fooled by Lyi Hentian into coming to this dense forest and engaging in a fierce battle with the Herculean Vajra Ape. Only then did he see this scene.

It was very hard to imagine that there was actually such a master in this world. He actually arranged for his Great Perfection of Innate Stage disciple to fight with a group of Profound Rank Profound Beast as a form of training. One had to know that the Herculean Vajra Ape was a genuine Profound Rank Profound Beast, and it was far from being comparable to the previous Blue Moon Wolf and Snake Faced Lion. In terms of speed and attack power, it was a few levels higher.

Although Duanmu Kuang's origin energy far surpassed ordinary Profound Essence Stage martial artists, his combat strength was also abnormally powerful. But in the end, he was still a Great Perfection of Innate Stage martial artist. When he faced a group of Herculean Vajra Ape that was large in number and two levels higher than his cultivation base, the result could be imagined.

In the beginning, Duanmu Kuang couldn't even hold on for fifteen minutes when he arrived here. He was badly injured, and his body was covered in blood. He had no choice but to flee with serious injuries, not daring to face the Herculean Vajra Ape head-on.

No matter how one looked at it, they didn't think that Lyi Hentian was training Duanmu Kuang. Instead, it was as if ___ was sending him to his death. Because it was crazy to send a Great Perfection of Innate Stage warrior to deal with a group of powerful Herculean Vajra Ape. It was even more unbelievable.

If an ordinary person had such an outstanding disciple, they wouldn't even have the time to dote on him. How could they bear to push him into such a fiery pit?

But who was Lyi Hentian? He had once been a top expert in the world. Naturally, he had his own way of teaching his disciples. Moreover, his vision was much longer than an ordinary person's, and he had his own unique points.

He had always firmly believed that his disciple would be able to meet his expectations. He would be able to complete this trial very well. The battle with the Herculean Vajra Ape was the last hurdle that he had to face in order to train Duanmu Kuang. He absolutely could not afford to lose it.

Therefore, even if Duanmu Kuang was seriously injured and looked like he could not handle it, and when he protested, Lyi Hentian did not compromise. When Duanmu Kuang's injuries recovered, the old man was like a duck chasing after a duck, urging Duanmu Kuang to come. He continued to fight with the Herculean Vajra Ape.

Of course, Lyi Hentian didn't ask Duanmu Kuang to kill all the Herculean Vajra Ape. It was impossible for a Great Perfection of Innate Stage warrior to kill a group of Profound Rank Profound Beast.

The old man asked Duanmu Kuang to fight with the Herculean Vajra Ape to temper his reaction speed and accumulate combat experience. To put it bluntly, it was purely for the sake of fighting. He wanted to use this method to dig out all of Duanmu Kuang's potential. He wanted to see how Duanmu Kuang would be surrounded by Profound Rank Profound Beast. How much potential could he unleash? How long could he last?

Just like this, Duanmu Kuang was forced to come to this dense forest every day by Lyi Hentian. He would engage in a frenzied battle with the Herculean Vajra Ape. Lyi Hentian was very strict, and didn't allow him to shrink back at all. He also declared that he wouldn't give him any help, and that he had to rely on himself for everything.

Under normal circumstances, Duanmu Kuang would be unable to continue after being seriously injured. That was why he was allowed to leave and receive Lyi Hentian's treatment. Once his injuries recovered, the old man urged him to come here. Furthermore, he asked him to continue fighting regardless of day or night.

After five days, Duanmu Kuang had already fought dozens of battles with the Herculean Vajra Ape. It could be said that he had suffered enough, and the dangers within were not known to outsiders. There were a few times when he was surrounded by a group of apes, and he was almost unable to escape. He was almost killed by the Herculean Vajra Ape. Lyi Hentian was watching from the side. He didn't have any intention of attacking. The old man was determined to let him handle this alone.

However, although the training plan that Lyi Hentian had arranged was extremely arduous and dangerous, it had undoubtedly produced a great effect.

Duanmu Kuang had also been heavily injured from the beginning, and had grown to the point where he was facing the frenzied Herculean Vajra Ape horde. He could also take a stroll in the park. From the fourth day onwards, he had never been injured again. Furthermore, he had been holding on for a longer period of time. He had been fighting until his Yuan Qi was almost depleted. Only then did he leave on his own.

It wasn't difficult to tell from the ferocious attack that Duanmu Kuang was unleashing and his agile movement technique. His overall combat strength had undoubtedly increased by a large margin. Compared to when he fought with the Snake Faced Lion, his overall combat strength had increased by a few levels. He had become even stronger.
