《Eternal Sacred King》Chapter 197: Trapped Spirit Monkey
Advertisement
A streak of light flashed through the air, tearing through the skies and passing through the vast lands, brushing by cities and villages.
A few mortals subconsciously looked up. Some of those with sharper eyes faintly caught sight of a set of green robes. Amidst the clouds, it disappeared before everyone swiftly.
Su Zimo did not return to the sect immediately. Instead, he sped in the direction of the Cang Lang Mountain Range.
He had not seen the damn monkey for two years and missed it a little.
Additionally, Cang Lang Mountain Range had a cold lake.
Back then, Su Zimo was too weak and could not get to the bottom of the cold lake since he had just cultivated the Tendons Transformation section of The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness.
Now that Su Zimo was at greater mastery of the Marrow Cleansing section and had a rich bloodline, he could attempt to check out the cold lake once more.
The moment he arrived at the skies of the Cang Lang Mountain Range, Su Zimo heard a series of roars that shook the mountains with a murderous aura.
That was the howl of the wolf, something Su Zimo was extremely familiar with.
Back when he lived in Cang Lang Mountain Range for a year, he was fighting those spirit beasts most of the time.
Wolves were cunning and extremely intelligent.
If not for the spirit monkey’s help, Su Zimo would have already died in a wolf’s belly.
Su Zimo furrowed his brows slightly.
It was daytime right now. Logically speaking, most spirit beasts would lay dormant and it was the same for the wolves. It was rare for such a commotion to happen now.
“This should be the work of a pack of wolves.”
Su Zimo muttered softly.
Even when he joined forces with the spirit monkey back then, he could only rely on sneak attacks and was unable to fight powerful wolves head on.
Moreover, after killing a few wolves, it was inevitable that his body would contain the aura of a wolf’s bloodline. If he did not conceal it with other auras, he would be tracked by the wolves before long.

Su Zimo ignored the wolf pack and headed towards the cave he used to live in.
If he wanted to look for the spirit monkey, this was his only clue.
Otherwise, searching for a monkey in the vast Cang Lang Mountain Range was akin to finding a needle in a haystack.
Su Zimo had not gone far when his eyes flickered, sensing that something was amiss.
The roar of the wolves came from the direction of the cave!
Was it a coincidence?
Su Zimo pondered for a moment and withdrew his flying sword, descending into the forest.
He dashed towards the cave with all his might while surveying his surroundings with a sharp gaze, trying to search for clues on the ground.
Before he arrived at the cave, Su Zimo already had determined the situation based on the clues on the ground.
The number of wolves this time was large, there should be more than 10,000!
That was a terrifying figure.
Typically, there would be a spirit demon level wolf in a wolf pack amounting in the hundreds.
For a wolf pack of more than 10,000 wolves, there were at least 10 of those spirit demon wolves.
The most terrifying thing was that the alpha of the wolf pack might even be a spirit demon equivalent to a Golden Core!
The difference in strength between spirit demons was huge.
The weakest of them were comparable to Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
The strongest of them were equivalent to Golden Core Perfected Beings!
Su Zimo’s expression was grim. When he saw that he was about to reach the cave, he slowed down and moved forward silently.
Soon.
The figures of many wolves appeared before him, their eyes flashing with a green glint. Bloodthirsty and ruthless, they bared their teeth and saliva drooled from their mouths onto the ground as they snarled deeply.
Su Zimo did not proceed forward rashly. Instead, he came beside a huge ancient tree and using all his limbs like a spirit ape, climbed it stealthily.
Standing up high, he looked over and could not help but take a breath of cold air.
There were too many!

Densely packed, they covered the entire mountains, causing chills to run down one’s spine.
The wolf pack did not surround the cave, Su Zimo would definitely choose to avoid and not provoke these beasts.
However, only Su Zimo and the spirit monkey knew about that cave.
He was not going to leave until he confirmed the spirit monkey’s safety.
There were also hundreds of wolf corpses lying in the cave and most of the blood had dried up.
Only a few wolves that looked like they had their heads smashed in seemed to have died not too long ago.
Although he was a distance away, Su Zimo could still see clearly – most of the wolves looked like they suffered fatal injuries on their heads, as if they were bashed by some blunt weapon.
Su Zimo narrowed his gaze at the dark cave entrance.
If he was not wrong, the spirit monkey should be inside!
Logically speaking, given the alertness of the spirit monkey, it should have escaped long ago once this place was exposed – there was no way it would be trapped by such a large wolf pack here.
Furthermore, this pack of wolves was also behaving strangely. Instead of rushing forth together, they were dragging things out.
Su Zimo did not dare to act recklessly, merely surveying the wolf pack from the tree.
Given the discipline of a wolf pack of this size, there was definitely an alpha wolf around.
If the alpha was a Golden Core spirit demon, Su Zimo could not fight it head on.
However, if the alpha was a Foundation Establishment spirit demon, Su Zimo would be able to break through the wolf pack on his flying sword and kill all of them to try and defeat the alpha… or even kill it!
That was because Su Zimo had an advantage that Foundation Establishment spirit demons did not have.
Sword Kinesis Flight!
As long as Su Zimo were to ride on his flying sword, he would be invincible no matter how many wolves there were.
However, if the alpha was a Golden Core spirit demon, Su Zimo would not dare to barge in.
Be it humans or demons, core formation was an extremely important step.
There is the saying that once one creates a Golden Core, one’s lifespan will not be decided by nature!
Once one forms a core, even spirit demons would be able to soar through the skies without the use of any external objects.
This meant that even if the wolf did not have wings, it could fly as well and Su Zimo’s advantage would be gone.
Furthermore, Su Zimo was not a match for a Golden Core spirit demon as well – they were on completely different levels.
If the opponent was a cultivator that did not cultivate any concealment techniques and the difference in realm between them was not too great, one could easily detect the other party’s cultivation realm using Spirit Peering Art.
However, the Spirit Peering Art was useless against spirit demons.
That was because there was no spirit energy in the spirit demons’ bodies.
Before a spirit demon attacked, one could only rely on experience, feelings and observation to gauge their cultivation realms.
At the front of the wolf pack stood more than ten tall and strong wolves that looked malicious. Pacing back and forth, none of the other wolves dared approach them.
Su Zimo nodded silently.
If he was not wrong, those ten odd wolves were Foundation Establishment spirit demons!
Their status in the wolf pack was very high, akin to a small leader.
However, upon further observation, he discovered that none of them seemed like the true alpha wolf.
Su Zimo continued searching.
All of a sudden!
His gaze paused at the top of a tall, green rock.
Above it sprawled a wolf. It was not big and did not look extraordinary when compared to the many spirit beast level wolves below.
However, Su Zimo determined after some consideration that it was the alpha wolf!
Out of more than 10,000 wolves, that was the only one that dared to sprawl around. Its expression was languid and its eyes were half-closed, as if it was taking a rest.
