The Red Bottomed Horse Monkey, resembling an ape, with a white mane, snow-like teeth, and golden claws, suddenly emerged ashore, towering up to five zhang in height.
Its posture was akin to a crouching monkey, yet its eyes remained closed, appearing dim and muddled.
Streams of water poured from its eyes and nose like fountains, accompanied by foul-smelling drool, rendering it impossible for humans to approach.
After a while, it stretched its neck and yawned, its eyes suddenly opened, emitting a dazzling light akin to lightning.
To put it simply, a giant creature resembling an elderly, dazed, drooling ape with cataracts and bad breath.
In the classical novel "Journey to the West," the Red Bottomed Horse Monkey was not specifically a single monkey. The "Horse," Marshal Liu Er, was one of the Four Generals of Huaguo Mountain.
However, the image Qin Shou envisioned for it was a towering white-furred beast with the ability to control water flow.
Naturally, "Great King Kong," being the elder brother of Little Vajra, had to be equipped with some cool armor at Qin Shou’s behest.
As a sphere of light detonated, Great King Kong made its first appearance. The ground beneath the ruins splintered as it roared furiously, eye and nose geysers surged forth, cascading down to form waterfalls on the surface.
Subsequently, icy mist shrouded the surroundings. The cascading waterfalls converged in its palms, crystallizing into a colossal icy pillar.
Meanwhile, Second Vajra, synthesized with Long Armed Ape Monkey, displayed considerably more restraint.
In the classical novel "Journey to the West," the Long Armed Ape Monkey, one of the legendary Four Monkeys who disrupted the world, was minimally described by the original text, noted as "崩巴二将军" of Huaguo Mountain.
Given this lack of description, Qin Shou had to rely on his own imagination, creating a robust, long-armed ape monster clad in thick armor, wielding a silver Sky Tower, unstoppable in combat.
In short, Qin Shou held no expectations for these two characters resembling their traditional counterparts.
As soon as the pair entered the battlefield, before Qin Shou could issue any commands, they eagerly sought their respective opponents: two Nightmare Seven Star Spine Eaters, ready to test their "mutated" power.
Great King Kong wielded its frozen giant stick, leaping up fiercely. Even before the frozen stick descended, a golden sky pillar thundered down from above, skewering the Spine Eater into a shish kebab...
Great King Kong turned its head, glaring furiously at the smug Little Vajra, raising its middle finger abruptly.
Little Vajra, now empowered to Nightmare Seven Star level, could dispatch monsters of the same rank effortlessly in a single blow.
"Hey! Dummy, come over here!"
Suddenly, Brother Monkey, besieged by several Nightmare Eight Star Spine Eaters, bellowed angrily, summoning Little Vajra for assistance.
Upon seeing this, Little Vajra unhesitatingly rushed towards Brother Monkey’s direction.
Nightmare Seven Star monsters posed no challenge, whereas the Nightmare Eight Stars were far more intriguing.
As always, Little Vajra couldn’t help but roar beast-like cries, flailing its golden great stick wildly at the Nightmare Eight Star Spine Eaters.
Observing this, Brother Monkey’s eyes twitched as a thought flashed. Suddenly, he shapeshifted, splitting himself into dozens of slightly weaker Monkey Avatars that swarmed the other Spine Eaters, leaving Little Vajra alone to face the Nightmare Eight Stars.
"Cheating... no honor..."
Little Vajra opened its eyes wide, briefly distracted, instantly knocked down by an enormous fire attribute Spine Eater. Countless sharp insect limbs scraped against its armor, igniting endless sparks, engulfing Little Vajra in a sea of fire.
The earth suddenly quaked intensely. A black giant beast towering nearly a hundred meters let out a sky-piercing roar, azure energy beams shot through the flames, followed by the monstrous wails. The golden great stick hoisted the fiery Spine Eater aloft and hurled it towards the incoming frozen Spine Eater.
The two Spine Eaters collided, producing an ear-splitting muffled sound before smashing into the ground, crushing rows of steel buildings into dust clouds.
Above, the greedy snake enveloped in golden thunderstorm energy ferociously swept across three Nightmare Eight Star Spine Eaters, temporarily trapping them within the storm.
The greedy snake had also been upgraded to Nightmare Seven Star level.
Soon after, a massive silver creature strode arrogantly into the thunderstorm, its eight-shaped gait crushing the ruins beneath.
"Clang clang bang bang..."
Deafening metallic collisions resounded within. Before long, Hillbagon scampered out clutching its two ram horns, fleeing towards the weaker Spine Eaters.
"Can’t afford this... can’t afford this."
Due to limited synthesis points, Hillbagon remained at Nightmare Six Star level and was at a disadvantage against Nightmare Eight Star monsters.
A total of seven Nightmare Eight Star Spine Eaters appeared this time — three were temporarily trapped by the greedy snake, Little Vajra and Godzilla each stalled one, while the remaining two advanced directly towards Qin Shou, attracting attention from the Monkey Avatars.
The dozens of Monkey Avatars merged into one. Brother Monkey, stepping on a Gold-eating Insect Cloud, darted swiftly from afar, eyes flashing crimson rays that briefly repelled the two Nightmare Eight Star Spine Eaters.
Suddenly, the golden great stick lengthened dramatically, sweeping horizontally across the city ruins. Piercing wind roared fiercely, air cracked, blazing flames wrapped the stick, smashing onto the two Spine Eaters’ waists.
The two Spine Eaters’ waist armor shattered, shocked by the "pirated" Great Saint’s sheer power, and were flung backward heavily, crashing into the ruins. Content originally comes from novel[f]ire.net
A thunderous lightning exploded, the two Spine Eaters cloaked in thunder energy emerged from the wreckage, engaging Brother Monkey in close combat.
In terms of synthesis materials or formulas, Brother Monkey was far more intricate than Little Vajra or other monsters, naturally boasting superior strength and combat techniques.
Facing two Nightmare Eight Star monsters, Brother Monkey maintained composure, with agility unmatched by giant beasts and a brutal strength exceeding same-level monsters, quickly overwhelming the two Spine Eaters.
Averse to using energy attacks, Brother Monkey left the two Spine Eaters defenseless, resigned to relentlessly take punches.
