456: Chapter 349 456: Chapter 349 Inside the Hell Palace, a monkey soul suddenly appeared, looking so formidable.
The Taoist and his disciple, Huang Chen, were silently observing, hoping that the monkey would create chaos and mess up the space, giving them a chance to escape.
If the monkey killed these Demonic Beasts, there would be fewer enemies in the space, practically ridding them of the Demonic Beasts that Jiang Tang had tamed as pets.
Then, their nemesis Jiang Tang would be much easier to deal with.
Huang Chen hadn’t seen Jiang Tang for a very long time and assumed his cultivation had merely gone from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment.
He was quite confident in his belief that his powers had reached Heart Refinement, and as long as he could leave this space, he would be capable of defeating Jiang Tang, even killing him.
How could Huang Chen know that while he was proud and confident, others had become more powerful, and even if he managed to leave, he wouldn’t be able to seek his revenge?
Upon seeing these Demonic Beasts unconvinced of its power, the monkey, to show its might, unleashed all of its most formidable mana.
Indeed, as a soul that had already achieved Ascension, even if it wasn’t at its strongest, having been sealed for millions of years and seriously weakened, it was still a creature that had ascended to the heavens, an Immortal Demon.
The highest capability Demonic Beasts before it could only feel an immense pressure weighing down on them.
In a flash of lightning, the pressure surged towards them.
Their previous carelessness forced them to release their mana to protect themselves and their races.
The space started to descend into chaos; those with lower cultivation couldn’t move and were pinned to the ground by the overwhelming pressure.
Those with higher cultivation were starting to open up some distance, dodging the areas covered by the monkey’s spells.
For those of the monkey race, they were unaffected and grateful that this Monkey King was not troubling them.
Meanwhile, they watched the excitement.
Seeing the previously reigning kings of the four races now struggling under the Monkey King’s pressure, their past power now seemed humble, and some Demonic Beasts were even spitting blood.
The kings of the four races were under immense pressure, trying to protect themselves as well as their kin.
They had realized how insignificant they were in front of the monkey, and no wonder it was so arrogant.
That made them feel depressed yet defiant.
What about the Cultivation Methods?
These four races were all stronger than the monkey, so why had it become so mighty?
The monkeys in the space were known to them: apart from being more agile, their speed wasn’t even on par with that of a leopard.
It seemed there was a story behind this monkey; even though it was defeated by the Artifact Spirit of the space, it was not something they could compare with.
Some of the sharper Demonic Beasts noticed that the monkey didn’t suffer the same agony as they did.
The Demonic Beasts gradually moved closer to the monkey, laboriously shifting their feet as if each step weighed a thousand pounds.
One could imagine how powerful the spells cast by the monkey were.
The monkey had only exerted its pressure without intending to kill all the Demonic Beasts in the space.
It thought that as long as the kings of those few races swore fealty to it, it only needed to become the king of this space and bless others as it wished.
If possible, it might lead these Demonic Beasts in a rebellion.
The monkey also sensed that there were not only Demonic Beasts in the space but also human Ghost Cultivators, as well as a peculiar existence that seemed to be sensing a person’s Qi.
This space was so complicated, it had to subjugate others step by step and become the king of this area.
Even if it lost its freedom elsewhere, it didn’t matter; it could still move around in this vast space, which was better than being sealed in one place, unable to move for thousands of years.
“You still refuse to submit, do you?
I indeed have the power to make you all submit.
Do you know that in the past, I was an Immortal Demon, and no matter how powerful you were, you couldn’t resist my mana.”
The monkey gradually revealed its origins, but unfortunately, it only told half the story, leaving both humans and Demonic Beasts incredibly curious whether the monkey was boasting or truly was an Immortal Demon.
If it was an Immortal Demon, why had it fallen to such straits, trapped just like them by the Artifact Spirit, and living a life without freedom in this place?
The humans and Demonic Beasts living in the space, although they found it somewhat leisurely, who among them didn’t have ambition?
If they could leave this space and venture into the outside world, rule and dominate outside rather than be confined here, it would surely be better than just moving within this confined space.
They had tried to leave before, and while humans had been able to enter and exit, and Ghost Cultivators controlled by humans could also come and go, the Demonic Beasts couldn’t even think about it.
Now, with the Artifact Spirit controlling the space, there was no exit, only entry.
You, monkey, are merely someone else’s defeated subordinate.
Raging at us is futile.
Here, the king is the Dragon.”
The Lion roared defiantly, its Lion’s Roar causing the monkey’s head to buzz.
Is there a dragon in this space?”
The monkey used its gaze and Divine Sense to observe the space but didn’t discover any dragons.
“The Dragon King is not in this space; it is the pet of the space’s master.
Having been brought into this space, have you never seen the Dragon King?” the Tiger also spoke up.
“What, Little Dragon is your king here?”
The monkey finally understood that Little Dragon, under the influence of its master, had already become the king of this space.
The monkey was so infuriated.
It had been bullied on the outside, and upon entering the space, even though it was stronger than these Demonic Beasts, it was still rebuffed without a word to say.
