Chapter 185
The demon ape lowered its eyes, and its ferocious and brutal eyes looked down at the human martial artist who almost killed it.
"You have exceeded my expectations time and time again, and you really gave me a big 'surprise'.
It's a pity that you didn't seize such a good opportunity just now. Now... it's my turn to take action."
As soon as the voice fell, the demon ape raised its huge foot with a diameter of dozens of meters.
In an instant, Lu Ren felt that the world was dark, and a strong sense of oppression descended from above his head.
The demon ape was very large, but its speed was not as slow as he imagined.
On the contrary, the demon ape's body was quite flexible, and the process of raising and lowering its feet seemed slow, but in fact it only took a moment.
However, this method alone was not enough to stop Lu Ren.
He used the "Phantom Step" and quickly withdrew from the huge shadow area.
The demon ape's feet slammed down on the ground, instantly creating a crack more than a mile long in the earth.
At the same time, with its feet as the center, a huge depression appeared on the ground, and countless trees and rocks rolled into it.
Seeing that he had missed, the demon ape was immediately a little angry and ran towards Lu Ren with huge steps like stepping on a mole.
Lu Ren kept moving his body and changing his position, and he could retreat to a safe area before the demon ape landed every time.
It seemed that he was fleeing in a panic, but he didn't know that he was actually playing with the demon ape and wearing down its patience and reason.
At the same time, he did this to buy himself enough time.
The deduction of skills and martial arts is very fast, but as the level increases, the life span of the demon consumed is also greatly increased.
Correspondingly, the time consumed by deduction is also slightly increased.
But... it's over!
After walking the demon ape back and forth for a few times, Lu Ren stopped running.
He is now at the top of a towering ancient tree, with a slender and soft branch under his feet, and his posture is extremely light and chic.
Just now, while playing with the demon ape, he secretly opened the panel and began to deduce martial arts.
Deducing skills can improve the realm, but the amount of life consumed is too large, and it is actually difficult to cause effective lethality to the demonized demon ape with only cultivation without third-level martial arts.
After weighing the pros and cons, Lu Ren chose to invest his limited life span in the third-level archery martial arts "Demon Breaking Arrow" that he had not yet entered.
If he wanted to deal with a demon ape that was hundreds or thousands of times bigger than him and whose defense was so strong that it was suffocating, the "Demon-Breaking Arrow" that could either remotely blast a single creature or inflict damage to a large area was undoubtedly the best choice.
After pouring in a full thousand years of life, Lu Ren was finally able to perfect this third-level martial art.
[Demon Lifespan (Spiritual Realm): 1,500 Years]
[Current Martial Arts:]
[Demon-Breaking Arrow (Third-level Perfection)]
..........
If time permits, Lu Ren could take a more prudent approach and use all of his remaining lifespan to improve his realm.
But he didn't think it was necessary.
How could a demon ape in the middle stage of the Phantom Demon Realm resist the third-level archery of the Perfect Realm?
Since he was sure to kill it, there was no need to waste time.
After all, there were still many terrifying demons lurking in the depths of the miasma forest. If he spent too much time and fell into the encirclement of other demons, it would be a loss.
Lu Ren stood on the treetop, standing still despite the howling wind.
The demon ape was on the verge of going berserk. Its spine was broken by Lu Ren. At this moment, due to the effect of the demon power, it was able to ignore the pain and devote itself to the battle.
But Lu Ren was like an annoying fly, flying around in front of it, but it just couldn't catch him.
This feeling of having power but nowhere to use it made it feel extremely angry and aggrieved.
Just as it was staring at Lu Ren and trying to predict his escape direction in advance, the demon ape suddenly discovered a fact that made it feel a bit absurd.
That human martial artist was actually drawing a bow and arrow? !
What does that mean?
Could it be that he wanted to shoot himself with a bow and arrow?
Ha, are you kidding?
Let's not talk about whether Lu Ren's arrow can penetrate its physical defense. Even if it can, how much damage can a small iron arrow cause to it?
The demon ape had used too much force before, so it was not in a hurry to move now. It stood there and looked at Lu Ren with contempt.
In its opinion, Lu Ren's action was really ridiculous, and it was similar to Dayi who shot down nine suns in the myth of the human race.
The difference is that myths are just myths and can never become reality. "Boy, I think you are really at your wit's end. You can't hurt me with this method. Aren't you a martial arts practitioner? Pick up your knife and fight me in a hand-to-hand fight, how about it?" The demon ape mocked Lu Ren while trying to induce Lu Ren to confront it head-on through words. As long as Lu Ren dared to fight it in a hand-to-hand fight, it had the confidence to punch him into hell. This is the strong confidence that the demonized body brings to it. Facing the provocation of the demon ape, Lu Ren raised a disdainful sneer at the corner of his mouth. What a fool without a brain! At this moment, the bowstring has been pulled to the full arc, and the arrows made of meteorite iron and purple gold stone are flashing a frightening luster in the sun.
