Chapter 729 The Real Golden Cudgel?
To be honest, Cang Nian was quite surprised to see someone who wasn't from the older generation of powerful figures reach this level of evolution at this stage.
Cangnian felt that without Tiger Girl's help, he would probably be in the late stage of the fifth rank now, and it was hard to say whether he could even reach the peak of the fifth rank.
Without a doubt, the golden monkey in front of us, who worships the Great Sage and even imitates the Great Sage in his attire, not only has profound opportunities, but his combat strength should also not be underestimated!
To be able to suppress this large group of unruly monkeys and subdue them, as an outsider taking over Mount Emei, one certainly wouldn't be able to do it without some ability.
Therefore, this battle in Cangnian is highly anticipated.
Sensing that he was at the peak of the fifth rank, and still being able to confidently challenge others at the peak of the fifth rank, that courage alone is commendable.
"Fellow Daoist Cangnian, although my staff is not as powerful as the Great Sage's Ruyi Jingu Bang, it can still injure you if you graze it and kill you if you touch it. You'd better be careful!"
In preparation for battle, the powerful members of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom and the monkeys of Mount Emei scattered, leaving enough space for Cangnian and the golden monkey.
The golden monkey, however, cherished its attire. Before the battle, it first donned its rattan armor, removed the long feathers from its head, and handed them to the large monkey before reminding Cang Nian.
"Then I'd like to see for myself!"
Upon hearing this, Cangnian grinned and waved his paw, signaling the golden monkey that it could attack.
"long--!!!"
As Cangnian finished speaking, the golden monkey thrust its long staff backward, and then the staff suddenly grew longer and thicker. It grabbed the other end of the staff and, using the momentum of the staff's sudden growth, flew towards Cangnian!
Huhu~!
Immediately, as it reached above Cangnian, it swung the long stick, which was thicker than its own body, and smashed it down on Cangnian!
"Holy crap! A real golden cudgel?"
Seeing this, Cang Nian couldn't help but curse, only to see that the colossal pillar, several kilometers long and wider than his own body, was heading straight for him as if the pillar of heaven had collapsed.
Originally, he thought that he, a fifth-tier perfect cultivator, should be able to easily defeat Cang Nian, a fifth-tier peak cultivator, but he had to take it seriously.
The giant pillar descended slowly, but in reality it was incredibly fast, reaching Cang Nian in the blink of an eye.
However, Cangnian neither dodged nor yielded, and used his free attribute skill to increase his strength and defense attributes simultaneously!
boom--! ! !
At this moment, the giant pillar crashed down, causing the ground to cave in, and the entire mountain trembled because of this blow!
Bang~!
However, the giant pillar did not sink much before it made a sound like metal clashing, and the golden monkey holding the giant pillar felt its arms tremble!
Bang~!
Then, the giant pillar suddenly leaped up, only to be knocked back along the same path by a tremendous force, arcing through the air.
"Fellow Daoist Cangnian is indeed formidable!"
Seeing this, the golden monkey retracted its giant, pillar-like staff to a size that matched its body, and then exclaimed in admiration.
"This can't be just the power of a magic weapon, can it?"
Cang Nian, on the other hand, was quite pleased and asked curiously.
"This staff is the transformed body of a hard bamboo that feeds on spirit metal. It should be the magic weapon you mentioned, Fellow Daoist Cangnian."
I did indeed use more than just magic items just now.
My special ability is to change the size and weight of objects.
Therefore, this long stick can be large or small, long or short, light or heavy.
The golden monkey nodded, making no attempt to hide its special ability from others.
"Good, good, this ability is not bad, let's try again!"
Upon hearing this, Cang Nian suddenly realized what was going on, and then urged him on with great enthusiasm for battle.
"Okay! Come again!"
Upon hearing this, the golden monkey didn't hold back and swung its club again, attacking Cang Nian!
Dang Dang Dang~!
Then, Cangnian used his physical body to clash head-on with the golden monkey's magic weapon, producing a sound like a great bell striking each other.
The golden monkeys' attacks, however, were quite a sight to behold.
The long stick in its hand would sometimes grow longer, and it would stab the old man.
Sometimes it gets thicker and sweeps across.
Sometimes, it would throw the long stick like a javelin. After being deflected by the old man, it would become light and float back into its own hand. Then, using the momentum, it would deliver a straight chop, which was quite terrifying!
Because it can control the weight of the long stick, it feels weightless when wielding it, and moves with great force.
But whenever it strikes Cang Nian, it suddenly becomes incredibly heavy and powerful!
Therefore, it can always exert tremendous power with very little consumption. In addition, with its staff technique, Cang Nian felt that it was not much weaker than Yang Tianhuang's spear technique, which he had practiced for decades.
This combination makes its combat power astonishing. Even when Cangnian, at the peak of the fifth rank, fought against it, he still couldn't gain any advantage.
Of course, this is mainly because Cangnian did not use any other means, and only used free attribute skills throughout the entire process.
Being able to withstand magical artifacts with his bare body, even when fighting against opponents of a higher level, Cang Nian was very satisfied with his current combat strength.
Of course, he was even more pleased with the golden monkey that worshipped the Monkey King.
Based on its current combat power, there aren't many who can suppress it, even those at the fifth-tier perfect level.
This is a genius!
A genius who is no less than Ao Hong, the Dragon King of the East Sea, who leaped over the tenth Dragon Gate!
Moreover, unlike the macaques native to Mount Emei, they are not unruly and know how to behave properly and politely.
Such a powerful figure from the same Dragon Kingdom would definitely be a great asset as he grows up, relieving me of a lot of pressure.
Similarly, although Cangnian didn't witness the power of the Bamboo Maiden in the mountain city, according to the descriptions of the mountain city survivors, its potential should be on the same level as that of the Monkey King.
It's wonderful that the Dragon Kingdom has so many exceptionally talented individuals emerging one after another.
In particular, they are both kind and have good personalities, so you can trust them with your future.
This is the most precious.
Otherwise, they would all be like Qu Yinmei, Ao Hong, or Zeus—Cang Nian felt that it would be better to have no talent at all.
An absolute egoist genius will only become an obstacle to the Earth's defense against external enemies.
If the enemy offers them some benefits, these guys might just happily switch sides.
At the very least, they will disregard the overall situation and sacrifice everything else to achieve their own goals, all for their own benefit.
Ruthless tactics are indeed the most suitable quality for a lone wolf.
But the experience of our predecessors has long proven that a single tree cannot support a single pillar and can never defeat a powerful enemy in the future.
“Fellow Daoist Cangnian, we have been fighting for a long time, and I understand that I am no match for you.”
I'll use one last move to see just how strong you are, shall we?
At this moment, after a series of attacks, the golden monkey was somewhat exhausted and then asked a question.
"Then come on! I want to see just how strong you really are!"
Cang Nian nodded and laughed heartily.
Buzz~!
As soon as Cang Nian finished speaking, the golden monkey's figure, which was much smaller than his own, suddenly began to swell in the wind!
