Chapter 14 Challenging a King-Level Behemoth

"It's Senior Brother Shen Mu!"

"Senior Brother Shen Mu actually defeated more than a dozen high-level lord-level monsters, and even killed seven of them!"

He faced more than ten high-level lord-class monsters at the same time, and even killed seven of them.

This is a feat that even a War God could not accomplish, not even an invincible War God. Only those councilors who surpass the War God can have such terrifying achievements.

While everyone was discussing it, many students went up to greet him, including Zhao Ruo, whom Shen Mu was quite familiar with.

"Senior Sister Zhao Ruo, could you please have the senior brothers and sisters from the training camp help me dismantle these monsters? Keep the most valuable parts for me, and the other senior brothers and sisters can divide them up."

Shen Mu looked at Zhao Ruo and said that he really didn't want to move anymore. Even though his mental and physical strength had almost recovered, he was still very tired.

"No problem, leave it to us!"

Zhao Ruo naturally wouldn't refuse; the corpses of high-level lord-class monsters are practically all worthless. Apart from the most valuable special parts, even the hides and bones can be worth hundreds of millions, comparable to all the valuable materials of a low-level lord-class monster.

Right now, Shen Mu just wants to get a good night's sleep. Although the student camp isn't exactly safe, he'll be notified immediately if anything unexpected happens.

……

The following morning, around nine o'clock.

Shen Mu slept for nearly ten hours and felt refreshed when he woke up.

Stepping out of the tent, one finds only a dozen or so trainees who have just hunted monsters and are returning to rest in the camp.

"Senior Brother Shen Mu is awake!"

"Senior Brother Shen Mu, these backpacks contain your spoils from yesterday, including the most valuable parts such as the fangs of the Dark Gold Python and the pelt of the Silver Moon Wolf."

Although Shen Mu only joined the camp this year and is considered a junior in the training camp, now apart from a few familiar Chinese students, no one calls him junior brother anymore.

In the open space in the center of the camp, a campfire was burning, and several trainees were gathered around it, roasting meat.

One of the Chinese students waved to Shen Mu and said, "Senior Brother Shen Mu, would you like some? This is pork from the Fire Scale Trident, which you hunted yourself yesterday!"

"OK."

Shen Mu didn't stand on ceremony; he was starving. Aside from some high-energy sugar pills and energy bars before yesterday's battle with the monster to replenish his energy, he hadn't consumed any other energy.

It must be said that the meat of the Firescale Trident Boar is quite good. The meat of such a high-level monster has undergone a qualitative change. Not only does it not have a bloody smell, but it is also very delicious after simple processing.

Shen Mu ate about four or five pounds of roasted meat, and stopped eating after feeling full.

Today, Shen Mu faces a truly tough battle, and eating too much could negatively impact his performance.

After eating and drinking his fill, Shen Mu checked his equipment. His spear and throwing knives were in excellent condition; after all, they were SS-grade equipment, and cutting through a group of lord-level monsters would hardly cause any damage.

After completing the final checks, Shen Mu, watched by the camp participants, once again ventured into the Australian continent.

……

In the heart of the Australian continent lies a great rift valley.

High above, Shen Mu looked down at the canyon. The canyon was home to all sorts of ape-like monsters, including the King Kong Ape, the Mighty Demon Ape, and the Mountain Giant Ape, numbering in the tens of thousands.

On a giant rock in the very center of the canyon, a gigantic ape, hundreds of meters tall and as big as a small mountain, lies on it, radiating a heavy, mountain-like sense of oppression.

At this moment, the giant demonic ape was absorbing and exhaling cosmic energy. Its dark yellow fur was like tiny shuttles, faintly shimmering with a layer of earthy yellow light.

Shen Mu took a deep breath, and then his figure quickly descended. The twelve spears behind him trembled violently, and terrifying mental energy acted on them.

Boo!

A sharp whooshing sound rang out as twelve spears, like space-based weapons, shot towards the giant mountain ape.

With the superposition of mental power and gravitational acceleration, almost in the blink of an eye, these twelve spears accelerated to a terrifying speed, and the kinetic energy they contained exceeded the upper limit of the God of War level.

Shen Mu raised his hand and clenched his fist. Twelve streams of light intertwined, and the speed increased dramatically again. The limit of the mental power added to it reached a terrifying 5,200 tons.

boom!

A crimson streak of light descended from the sky, like a meteor falling to earth, and a sharp sense of oppression locked onto the giant mountain ape.

"roar!"

The mountain giant ape sensed danger even before Shen Mu's attack landed. A terrifying burst of primal force erupted from its body, and its fur instantly transformed into a thick suit of stone armor!

Boom!

The ground seemed to have exploded, and the airflow formed a terrifying shockwave, instantly stirring up dust and smoke tens of meters high.

The violent gale directly blew away several lord-level monsters surrounding the mountain giant ape, sending them crashing into the mountainside, causing the ground to shake violently.

The next instant, streaks of cold, eerie spear light flew out from the smoke and dust, returning to Shen Mu's side.

"roar!"

Suddenly, a furious ape howl rang out from the smoke and dust, and then a huge figure, as big as a small mountain, shot out like a cannonball, heading straight for Shen Mu in mid-air.

As his powerful spiritual energy spread out, Shen Mu immediately noticed that the giant mountain ape had a hole more than two meters in diameter and more than five meters deep behind it, which had been opened by his attack. The hole was eventually blocked by the hard back bones.

"roar!"

The mountain giant ape was furious. It had been obediently waiting for its new leader to give it orders, but it never expected to be ambushed by a powerful human.

The power of that attack was almost comparable to its maximum burst. If it weren't for the protection of the stone armor, it might have been severely injured and rendered unable to fight.

Logically, a first-order planetary life form should be able to fly at a speed of 1,000 meters per second, but that's in a vacuum environment.

In mid-air, the giant ape's speed was less than 300 meters per second due to wind resistance caused by its enormous size.

Shen Mu, however, is different. As a high-level War God-level mentalist, he can easily reach a flight speed of 600 meters per second.

Shen Mu's figure retreated rapidly, and at the same time, the twelve spears transformed into streaks of dark, sharp light that shot out once more.

The mountain ape roared again, its enormous fists petrifying as it unleashed a terrifying burst of primal force, instantly shattering several spears.

Shen Mu manipulated a series of long spears to shoot directly at the wounds on the back of the giant mountain ape.

Its powerful combat instincts allowed the mountain ape to immediately detect the despicable human's intentions in the distance. Thick stone armor re-formed on the bloody wound on its back.

boom!

The jet-black spear light shot out onto the stone armor, shattering countless stones, but failing to completely break it.

Without the favorable timing and location, Shen Mu's single-handed spear could only unleash a maximum burst of over 500 tons, making it difficult to break through defenses.

If the twelve spear beams were combined into one, they would be deflected by the giant beast's attack in a head-on battle.

"The gap between vastly different realms is indeed very difficult to bridge!"

From the perspective of the Azure Dragon's clone, this giant mountain ape was nothing more than a plaything, and killing it would be a piece of cake.

However, when the human was facing this behemoth, he felt a powerful sense of oppression, as if an ancient behemoth with immense strength was attacking him!

"I've honed my psychic-powered spear technique all this time!"

Shen Mu's figure danced around the giant beast, while the twelve spears suddenly changed, unleashing a variety of moves such as thrusting, stabbing, blocking, and chopping.

Although the power of each spear is only a little over 500 tons, which is only half of the brute force of this king-level monster's physical body, it is very difficult to harm the giant beast protected by stone armor.

However, Shen Mu did not expect to achieve victory in one strike. Although it was very difficult to damage this giant beast, repeated attacks would cause the mountain giant ape to feel pain and then go berserk.

Update! Please, brothers, lend me a monthly pass.

Explanation of the setting: In the original work, before Luo Feng obtained the Sky Shuttle, his flight speed was more than 600 meters, twice that of Councilor Fal. The Mountain Giant Ape is larger than humans, so its flight speed is naturally slower.
