Chapter 57 - Subduing the Ancient Dragon Ape

Ancient Wasteland Ravine, deep within, before a massive valley, Lin Xuan stood in the air.

Around the valley, white bones were scattered, some from powerful demonic beasts, and some from the skeletons of humans who had ventured in. A chilling, fierce aura rose to the sky, exuding a violent atmosphere that made one's spine tingle.

And in the depths of the valley, a huge black shadow, several dozen feet in size, was lying there, seemingly asleep, with fierce auras emanating from it.

However, perhaps sensing something, the huge shadow suddenly woke up from its slumber. Its massive body, like a small mountain, rose from the ground.

"Roar!"

A restless growl came from the huge shadow's mouth, and then it moved its legs, thicker than stone pillars, and walked out of the valley, causing the ground to shake.

In the mountains not far away, Lin Dong and Little Flame were hiding, after all, with his strength, going over would only be a hindrance. In fact, if the Ancient Dragon Ape accidentally swept him with a paw, he would probably lose half his life, so it was better to watch the show from the sidelines.

"Hiss!"

As the Ancient Dragon Ape walked out of the valley, Lin Dong, who was hiding aside and observing, couldn't help but gasp.

The sunlight fell from above, shining on the huge figure walking out of the valley, and Lin Dong clearly saw the appearance of the Ancient Dragon Ape.

The giant ape was eight or nine zhang tall, its towering figure extremely oppressive. Its entire body was jet black, as if cast from refined iron. Under the sunlight, it even reflected a cold and vigorous luster. Clearly, that body was not just for show, but truly possessed destructive power.

The giant ape's face, perhaps due to its excessive size, appeared somewhat ferocious and terrifying. What surprised Lin Dong even more was that the giant ape had a sharp black horn growing on its forehead.

The black horn, growing on its forehead, added a bit of arrogance to the Ancient Dragon Ape, as if it could pierce the Azure Sky. Dark golden mysterious patterns densely covered the black horn, and an ancient and wild aura emanated from the sharp horn.

"Good fellow, the Dragon bloodline within this Ancient Dragon Ape is so rich!"

Looking at the black horn on the Ancient Dragon Ape's forehead, even Little Marten, who was always arrogant, couldn't help but speak.

"That is a Dragon Horn. Only other demonic beasts with a certain concentration of Dragon bloodline can grow this Dragon Horn. If there is an opportunity, this Ancient Dragon Ape may really possess a bloodline comparable to the Dragon race itself in the future!"

Demonic beasts are different from humans. Humans mostly cultivate themselves, while demonic beasts pay more attention to their bloodline. If they want to break through the shackles in their bloodline, they can only transform their bloodline.

The Ancient Dragon Ape inherently possesses Dragon bloodline. Theoretically, as long as it continues to improve the Dragon bloodline in its body, and at the same time uses the Dragon bloodline to temper the Ape bloodline, its upper limit of achievement is extremely high.

"Dragon Horn?"

Lin Dong's heart trembled. Even with his limited knowledge, he knew what the word 'Dragon' represented. Any demonic beast tainted with a trace of Dragon bloodline was extraordinary, let alone this Ancient Dragon Ape, which even had a Dragon Horn, a Dragon body part.

"It's a pity, your kid's face isn't good enough, otherwise, hehe, you go get that Ancient Dragon Ape, and Marten will take you to taste some of the flavor of the Dragon bloodline!"

Little Marten looked at it greedily. To be honest, it hadn't eaten many demonic beasts with such a high concentration of Dragon bloodline. After so many years, it really missed it a bit.

Lin Dong couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this. That was what the Young Clan Leader had specially caught for Jiang Yinyin. If he dared to have designs on it, he had no doubt that the Young Clan Leader would directly chop him down with a sword, and then take him back to the inner clan for trial.

"Hehe, Marten is just saying, just saying... Fortunately that guy came this time, otherwise, just the three of us, we really wouldn't be able to handle this big guy."

Little Marten chuckled twice. It sometimes wondered why it couldn't control its mouth? But, to be fair, it really felt a bit stimulated when it said these things.

"Stop arguing, look over there, why aren't they fighting?"

Lin Dong looked at Lin Xuan, who was standing in the air in the distance, with a strange expression, with a bit of disappointment in his strange eyes. He still wanted to see Lin Xuan make a move.

At the mouth of the valley, the extremely huge Ancient Dragon Ape, whose beautiful dream had been disturbed, originally stepped out of the valley with an angry face, preparing to directly tear someone apart.

However, as soon as it came out, looking at the figure in the sky who didn't have any Origin Power fluctuations on his body, the Ancient Dragon Ape felt a sudden jolt, and instantly, all the anger dissipated inexplicably.

In fact, from that white-clothed figure, the Ancient Dragon Ape could also feel a strange, warm aura?

In short, it was a very warm feeling, directly suppressing the trace of ferocity and violence within the Ancient Dragon Ape.

Unseen by Lin Dong and Little Marten, there were pure white threads, perfectly integrated with the entire world, connecting Lin Xuan in the air with the Ancient Dragon Ape below.

If Lin Dong could sense this energy, he would be extremely shocked, because this energy was extremely similar to the energy of the mysterious stone talisman. Although it seemed weaker and thinner, it already possessed some of its essence.

This was a special Dao that Lin Xuan had comprehended from the Ancestral Stone. Lin Xuan couldn't quite explain what this trace of Dao rhythm belonged to; it was just a very mysterious thing, possessing a feeling of the spirit of all things, and a state of world-encompassing tolerance.

Lin Xuan was able to calm the Ancient Dragon Ape precisely by relying on this special insight, separating the trace of violent ferocity within the Ancient Dragon Ape from its temperament.

Under normal circumstances, the Ancient Dragon Ape would be more spiritual and less aggressive. Of course, its strength would also be weaker. But once the Ancient Dragon Ape was stimulated to unleash those hidden violent factors, its combat power would be even stronger than in its previous berserk state.

It was a case of a lower floor and a higher ceiling, but it was also more spiritual, making it more suitable to give to Jiang Yinyin.

Looking at the Ancient Dragon Ape's eyes, which were gradually becoming clear and bright, a smile couldn't help but appear on Lin Xuan's face. It seemed that his cultivation during this period had yielded great gains.

"Ancient Dragon Ape, are you willing to obey the person who possesses this command token in the future?"

Lin Xuan looked at the Ancient Dragon Ape below, whose ferocity was gradually suppressed and whose spirituality was more abundant, and a flash of inspiration crossed his mind—perhaps, this was life?
