The Peerless Tang Sect: Possessing Huo Yuhao at the Start

Chapter 74 A Powerful Push

Huo Zhanji, whose entire body was radiating an eerie red light, rushed straight into the troop of blood-red baboons. His only target at this moment was the blood-red baboon king.

Zhang Lexuan frowned slightly as she watched Huo Zhanji attack alone. Suddenly, a crescent moon behind her lit up. She pointed forward with her right hand, and a beam of moonlight shot out from the crescent moon. Wherever the moonlight passed, it blasted away all the blood-red baboons blocking Huo Zhanji's way.

However, under the influence of their group berserk state, these blood-red baboons became even more defensive, and after rolling on the ground once, they stood up again.

Without hesitation, Huo Zhanji threw a punch, sending the enemies blocking his way flying, and roared, "Get out of the way!"

Just then, the rest of the Shrek Academy students were surrounded. A large number of blood-red baboons darted out from the surrounding area, not getting close, but forming a dense encirclement. Faced with this dangerous situation, the Shrek Academy students did not panic at all. Although these blood-red baboons were not easy to deal with, they were not easy to threaten them either.

Han Ruoruo had already reached Zhang Lexuan's back. Her golden rope had quietly appeared and silently wrapped around the waist of each of her companions, except for Huo Zhanji, who had broken through the encirclement to attack the Blood Red Baboon King.

The blood-red baboon king stared fiercely at Huo Zhanji, who was heading straight for him. In his heavy particle form, Huo Zhanji was determined to achieve his goal.

Suddenly, the Crimson Baboon King roared, its thick, powerful hind legs exerting force, and its incomparably majestic body crashed straight towards Huo Zhanji, a layer of dark golden light appearing.

Relying on his combat instincts, Huo Zhanji extended his right hand and simultaneously unleashed the Dark Gold Terror Claw, "Throat Crush!"

"Bang!"

Amidst the deafening roar, the Crimson Baboon King's advance was instantly forced back, but in a split second it surged forward again, almost reaching Huo Zhanji. As soon as the Baboon King made its move, the other Crimson Baboons also charged forward at the same time. The ten-thousand-year-old Crimson Baboons immediately launched a frenzied attack on the Shrek group.

Looking back at the besieged crowd, Huo Zhanji instinctively unleashed the third soul skill of his Double Pupil Martial Soul: "Group Weakness, Chaotic World!"

Two consecutive soul skills forcefully suppressed the blood-red baboon horde, causing almost all of them to slow down instantly. The ferocity of their charge was greatly reduced, and the group berserk state that had just taken effect on these blood-red baboons was immediately negated by the two weakness buffs.

While keeping an eye on the entire field, Huo Zhanji, instead of retreating, advanced towards the Crimson Baboon King. With a swift movement and a sliding step, he almost glided past the Crimson Baboon King, his left hand transforming from a palm into a fist, and he attacked the Crimson Baboon King's abdomen with all his might.

The Blood Red Baboon's fighting style is head-on confrontation, especially since he is the Blood Red Baboon King. Facing Huo Zhanji's attack, he didn't even try to dodge, but swung his arms out horizontally towards Huo Zhanji.

As Huo Zhanji and the Crimson Baboon King's fists collided, a cloud of dust billowed up. Moments later, both men were sent flying backward. When the dust settled, the Crimson Baboon King's left arm was a bloody mess. Huo Zhanji's strength was now close to 50,000 jin per arm, let alone this full-force punch in his berserk form.

On the other side, the Shrek team was in much better shape without the pressure from the Crimson Baboon King. With two debuffs, their attacks became more effective.

Wang Qiu'er moved. With a loud dragon roar, Wang Qiu'er's body suddenly shone with an incomparably dazzling golden light. In a flash, she was in front of the ten-thousand-year-old blood-red baboon.

The blood-red baboon almost without hesitation swung its fist horizontally. Wang Qiu'er's small fist collided with the blood-red baboon's huge fist in mid-air. With a piercing "crack," the thick arm of the ten-thousand-year-old blood-red baboon was broken in the next instant of the collision.

There were no problems on the other side either. Under the moonlight, Li Yongyue's moon blade displayed the powerful attack force that an agility-type battle spirit master should have. In just a short while, three blood-red baboons with a thousand years of cultivation had fallen in front of his moon blade.

Han Ruoruo noticed that Huo Zhanji was not at a disadvantage against the Blood Red Baboon King, so she focused more on the other side. Zhang Lexuan remained calm throughout. She was also paying attention to the whole scene, but she was mostly looking at Huo Zhanji.

At this moment, Huo Zhanji paused for a moment, then his whole body suddenly transformed into an ice-blue Ice Emperor form, holding an ice sword and pointing it directly at the Blood Red Baboon King.

"This farce should end now, Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain." Huo Zhanji suddenly reversed the hand holding the ice sword, plunging the tip of the sword into the ground.

A vibrant green light instantly emanated from Huo Zhanji's body, revealing the Eternal Frozen Domain. At the same time, the second soul ring of Huo Zhanji's Xuanbing Dragon Emperor Martial Soul shone brightly, and the temperature in the air plummeted at an incredible speed. With the added permanent attribute boost of 110%, the surrounding temperature dropped dramatically, and the exhaled air froze into ice shards in an instant. The originally barren mountain peaks were completely transformed into a world of ice and snow.

As the Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain spread, all the other blood-red baboons, including the blood-red baboon king, were instantly frozen into ice sculptures under Huo Zhanji's control, except for the Shrek Academy members. In particular, the blood-red baboon king was hit solidly by an Emperor's Palm, and the entire scene was cleared up.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

A series of muffled thuds rang out, and when everyone looked at the Crimson Baboon King again, all they saw were baboon ice sculptures of various shapes and sizes. Huo Zhanji had returned to normal.

"This... Huo Zhanji seems even more terrifying than those soul beasts!!!!" Li Yongyue and Mo Xuan exclaimed.

Wang Qiu'er's pupils contracted as she looked at Huo Zhanji with a slight frown: "What else is he hiding?"

"Wang Qiu'er, can you absorb the soul ring of this Crimson Baboon King?" Huo Zhanji asked meaningfully.

Without saying much, Wang Qiu'er strode straight towards the Blood Red Baboon King. Zhang Lexuan turned to look at Huo Zhanji, who shook his head.

At this moment, Wang Qiu'er had already struck the Crimson Baboon King on the forehead with a palm, ending its life completely. Then she sat down cross-legged next to it, and a jet-black soul ring slowly floated out from the Crimson Baboon King's body.

A flash of golden light appeared behind her, and the pattern of a golden dragon slowly emerged. Its wings were spread, and its head was raised proudly. It glanced at the blood-red baboon king's soul ring with some disdain before opening its mouth and inhaling. Instantly, the jet-black soul ring was swallowed up by the golden dragon.

Wang Qiu'er sat there, motionless. A faint golden aura began to emanate from her body. The golden light rose like a thin mist, and although her dense soul power fluctuated violently, it did not feel violent at all.

"Zhanji, why don't you use that secret technique to give Wang Qiu'er a soul?" Zhang Lexuan asked Huo Zhanji.

"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't," Huo Zhanji said, shaking his head.

"Hmm, why is that?" Zhang Lexuan asked, while the others waited for Huo Zhanji's answer.

"Wang Qiu'er's martial soul is the Golden Dragon, which is a top-tier martial soul. Golden dragons are inherently proud, even as a martial soul. Any spirit ring that is a Golden Dragon martial soul is basically forcibly absorbed. This is equivalent to the martial soul suppressing the spirit ring. Unless the bloodline is close, it will basically not coexist with any spirit. This is the pride of the Golden Dragon," Huo Zhanji explained.

Another reason is that Wang Qiu'er is an imperial auspicious beast, and her fortune is so great that it could be touched by others. While explaining to everyone, Wang Qiu'er's soul power continued to rise strongly, and her aura was becoming stronger and stronger. She had obviously reached the critical moment of fusing with her soul ring.

Huo Zhanji also began to recover his cultivation: "The heavy particle form gives me a strange feeling, what's going on?"
