Chapter 115: Chapter 113: Captured
The soul rings emitted a radiant glow at this critical moment. Zhao Wuji knew it was no time to stand idle.
Taking a deep breath, the aura of his rings burst forth as he charged toward the Titan Giant Ape.
His first, second, third, and fifth soul rings shone simultaneously. Facing such a formidable opponent, the Immovable King unleashed four of his seven soul skills.
Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang did the same, their soul rings glowing brightly. The radiance of their activated soul rings was dazzling. The Immovable King fortified himself with his defensive techniques, exerting gravity control to envelop the Titan Giant Ape, compressing its body with the combined effect of gravity pressure and control.
At the same time, his massive palms swung into action. With the Vajra Palm at full force, Zhao Wuji leaped into the air using a towering tree as support, pouring his soul power into a ferocious strike aimed at the Titan Giant Ape.
The Titan Giant Ape hadn't intended to attack initially.
But seeing Zhao Wuji and the others assaulting it pushed it into a fury!
Meanwhile, Dai Mubai and the others hesitated upon seeing Yun Feng and Meng Yiran thrown aside.
As Dai Mubai, Oscar, and others chose to retreat, Zhu Zhuqing quickly grabbed Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, who were still in shock, and fled with them.
Tang San and the others, realizing they had no chance against such an opponent, made the same decisive choice to escape.
The Titan Giant Ape, already enraged, was further provoked by Xiao Wu's departure. The audacity of these lower-level soul masters attacking it was an unbearable insult. Its wrath erupted further.
Before fleeing, Ning Rongrong, worried about their speed, summoned her dazzling Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. It spun in her palm, emitting beams of light to enhance the speed of her companions.
"Seven Treasures shine. First: Strength."
"Seven Treasures shine. Second: Speed."
Accompanied by Ning Rongrong's clear and concise commands, four beams of light shot out, landing on Yun Feng, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's unique ability was its amplification, which disregarded the base strength of the recipient. Ning Rongrong's current enhancement could boost their abilities by 30%, regardless of their original power.
Feeling the surging energy within his body, Yun Feng realized the true might of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for the first time. Previously, he had only heard of its fame; now, experiencing the boost firsthand, he understood why the sect's auxiliary martial soul was considered unparalleled.
However, the momentary thrill was short-lived. What came next was a scene of sheer terror.
As Zhao Wuji's palms struck the Titan Giant Ape, his entire body was flung away like a cannonball. Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang were similarly swatted away like flies.
The Titan Giant Ape let out an earth-shaking roar. The deafening sound left Yun Feng's ears ringing and his mind blank.
As he regained some clarity, he turned to see a black energy wave erupting from the Titan Giant Ape, visible even in the dark. The sheer force of the wave toppled massive trees, leaving the ground bare and desolate.
Everyone, whether knocked down like Zhao Wuji or fleeing like Yun Feng, was thrown into the air by the shockwave.
Meng Shu and others proved ineffective against the Titan Giant Ape. Trees were broken cleanly at their trunks, and the force caused them to spit blood due to their proximity to the epicenter.
The Titan Giant Ape, seeing Zhu Zhuqing continuing to drag Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong away, grew even more enraged. As the black energy wave surged outward, it moved with frightening speed, its massive body finally springing into action.
It leaped forward at a speed imperceptible to the human eye, its enormous form blocking the moonlight. A colossal shadow descended over the group, aiming directly at their escape route.
Even if Meng Shu and the others wanted to intervene, it was already too late.
Yun Feng, despite anticipating the Titan Giant Ape's speed, had underestimated the king of the forest. Its overwhelming presence bore down on them like a mountain falling from the sky, suffocating them with its sheer force.
At this critical moment, a powerful mental shock emanated from the depths of Yun Feng's mind, jolting him back to awareness. It was Ah Yin's spiritual force pulling him out of his daze.
If this strike landed, it would mean certain death for anyone unfortunate enough to be caught beneath it.
Yun Feng quickly responded, activating his martial soul and summoning his soul rings. A mass of Blue Silver Grass, resembling countless tendrils, burst forth from behind him, shooting toward Xiao Wu.
In this dire situation, staying far from Xiao Wu felt too risky. Yun Feng wasn't willing to gamble with anyone's life.
As the tendrils reached Xiao Wu, they also grabbed Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, pulling them back to Yun Feng's side. After a moment's hesitation, Yun Feng extended his tendrils to include the isolated Meng Yiran as well.
The tendrils moved with remarkable speed, pulling everyone away from the center of the impending impact.
Perhaps noticing Xiao Wu's location, the Titan Giant Ape instinctively adjusted its trajectory slightly, sparing Yun Feng and his group from the brunt of its attack.
At that moment, Dai Mubai reacted as well. Without hesitation, he struck the ground with his tiger claw, digging a massive pit. He led the remaining team members into the pit, knowing that the Titan Giant Ape's massive body would only crush the surface. By staying below ground, they could avoid a direct hit.
Even if they weren't entirely safe, the shockwave's impact would be significantly reduced, and with Oscar and Ma Hongjun's help, they had a better chance of survival.
Yun Feng's tendrils helped his group escape the immediate range of the Titan Giant Ape's assault.
Boom!
The Titan Giant Ape landed with a thunderous impact.
For reasons unknown, the moment its massive body touched down, no one suffered a direct hit. However, the shockwave from its landing caused everyone to lose consciousness.
Yun Feng's group, though unharmed, was swept away by the force and disoriented.
Immediately after, a massive hand reached out, seizing Yun Feng, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Meng Yiran all at once.
