Chapter 313 Both Perish_1
But in reality, this blunder had already occurred, and it had even dealt a heavy blow to the Tyrant Spirit Ape.
At this moment, he was afraid that the Tyrant Spirit Ape might have misunderstood his intentions, and how would he explain himself to the Zhenyang Sect?
Moreover, explaining might not even be useful!
With these thoughts, Ye Pinghai's face grew a bit grim, and for a while, he couldn't think of a solution.
"Roar roar..."
Several roars of Demonic Beasts could be heard, followed quickly by the sound of intense collisions, which brought Ye Pinghai back to his senses.
He turned his gaze and looked up at the scene before him.
At this time, he saw the Wind Dusk Beast, having narrowly escaped disaster, was again changing its position, fleeing towards where the Tyrant Spirit Ape was.
Clearly, with Ye Pinghai's emergence from seclusion, and judging from the power he displayed, he seemed to be somewhat stronger than the heavily injured Tyrant Spirit Ape.
The Wind Dusk Beast seemed to understand its dire situation, realizing that breaking through Ye Pinghai's side was no longer realistic.
Moreover, with the Tyrant Spirit Ape already injured and having been further wounded by Ye Pinghai's strike, its ability to exert power compared to itself was, presumably, not much stronger.
Therefore, the Wind Dusk Beast made a decisive move and ferociously attacked the Tyrant Spirit Ape while it was still unresponsive.
Seeing this, the Tyrant Spirit Ape, both shocked and enraged, ignored its injuries and hastily entangled with the Wind Dusk Beast in battle.
Once they engaged, the battle between the Tyrant Spirit Ape and the Wind Dusk Beast was brutally intense, with both sides fighting without any restraint.
They fought as if they cared not for their lives, seemingly trying to vent the rage accumulated from the relentless chase and escape.
Seeing this sight, Ye Pinghai frowned, also shocked by the two Demonic Beasts' battle.
Having barely calmed down, he prepared to join the fray, to help the Tyrant Spirit Ape annihilate the Wind Dusk Beast and thus end this battle.
"Roar... roar..."
At that moment, two sounds, mournful to the ear, came through.
Hearing the noise, Ye Pinghai's expression changed slightly as he looked in the direction of the screams.
He saw the Tyrant Spirit Ape lying on the ground with a huge hole in its chest, exposing its internal organs.
At the same time, the ground was soaked with blood, and the Tyrant Spirit Ape lay in the pool of blood, struggling weakly.
Its movements were not great, and its breaths were already significantly weaker, appearing to have more difficulty inhaling than exhaling, looking extremely sorrowful.
From his perspective, it might not be long before the Tyrant Spirit Ape would breathe its last.
Meanwhile, not far from the Tyrant Spirit Ape, in an open space, the Wind Dusk Beast was also lying on the ground.
The contrast was clear, the Tyrant Spirit Ape on the verge of death was still struggling and crying out, whereas the Wind Dusk Beast lay motionless on the ground, silent, evidently having no breath left.
Seeing this, Ye Pinghai was taken aback.
He had thought that although both Demonic Beasts were severely wounded, the outcome should not have come so swiftly.
However, in just a short span of a few breaths, the battle between the Tyrant Spirit Ape and the Wind Dusk Beast had concluded, and they had nearly perished together.
Ye Pinghai found this outcome somewhat unbelievable.
But as things stood, with the result before his eyes, he could only accept the fact.
He looked at the dying Tyrant Spirit Ape, whose cries of agony made Ye Pinghai sigh helplessly, feeling somewhat at a loss inside.
Just then, Lin Shikang behind him stood up and walked towards him, quickly arriving in front of him.
From a distance, Lin Shikang clasped his hands in salute and then said, "Congratulations, Ye, on reaching the Golden Core Great Achievement!"
Hearing this, Ye Pinghai's expression turned cold as he said sternly, "Lin, if you keep mocking me like this, I might get angry!"
Hearing this, Lin Shikang smiled faintly and replied, "Ye, with your breakthrough to Golden Core, according to the Cultivation World's rules where strength dictates seniority, it is indeed proper to refer to you as a senior."
Before he could finish, Ye Pinghai quickly waved his hands, speaking earnestly.
"Lin, please don't be like this!"
"You must know, for my attempt to reach the Golden Core, the Lin Family went to great lengths to provide a sacred place for my breakthrough, not to mention lending me the ancestral insights for my perusal."
"Besides that, the Lin Family has already shown great kindness to me, and with this added, I fear I might never be able to repay it."
Hearing these sincere words, Lin Shikang's pale face regained some color, feeling very satisfied with Ye Pinghai's attitude.
In the Cultivation World, it was not uncommon for cultivators who had been on good terms to drastically change after advancing to a higher realm.
Some even turned against friends who had helped them, going as far as to retaliate against their benefactors, and even kin has been killed in such cases.
Such extreme acts of treachery and malevolence could be found in the complex hearts of the Cultivation World.
Although Ye Pinghai did not outwardly show any signs of change, at the very least, he was still very courteous on the surface, and he always remembered the Lin Family's kindness, making their assistance not in vain.
In truth, Ye Pinghai was indeed grateful.
He was aware of how much effort and resources the Lin Family had spent on his advancement to the Golden Core Realm.
Aside from their previous kindness to him, for this advancement, they provided a safe haven for cultivation and used numerous Spirit Stones to enhance the Spiritual Energy needed for his breakthrough.
Just these factors alone, for someone with no blood relation, were already not easy.
In addition, the Lin Family had lent him the precious insights on breakthroughs, offering significant help during his critical moment.
More critically, during his consolidation period, the intense battle between the Wind Dusk Beast and the Tyrant Spirit Ape could have affected the valley, and the desperate Wind Dusk Beast even nearly barged in.
