Chapter 881

On the Ape Planet, night fell, and the forest was quiet.

A strange shadow shuttled between the mountain ridges. Wherever it passed, the wild beasts it encountered would strangely disappear, as if they had fallen into a pitch-black space crack.

Squeak squeak! Roar roar!

The cries of many apes in the forest continued. The lively little monkeys were still playing late into the night, which made many elders feel helpless.

A black wind blew, and the lights in the tribe flickered. No one noticed a strange shadow twisting and flashing by. Then, an old baboon in the tribe disappeared without anyone noticing.

Then, next to a lake dozens of miles away from the original tribe, a shadow climbed up from the ground and turned into an old man in a black robe.

This old man looked very strange. His skin that was exposed outside his robe was also pure black. Only his eyes were yellow and glowing, like the eyes of a cat at night.

He grabbed an old baboon in his hand and pressed his five fingers on its head. The old baboon immediately let out a few muffled groans, and his eyes flickered non-stop.

"Huh? I thought that the successor of the Tyrants would come to the Ape Planet to live in a place full of experts. I didn't expect him to live in an inconspicuous small tribe. This caused the Old Man to waste some more time.

"But this is good too. It will be easier to capture him if he is far away from the elders of the Heart Ape Tribe," the old man murmured.

He threw the old baboon on the ground. Then, a black wind blew, and he disappeared, once again turning into a shadow and flying into the distance.

A long time after he left, the old baboon woke up from the ground, but it did not understand what had happened. It scratched its head and went home in a daze.

…

"What? You refused the opportunity to enter the Heaven's Equal Peak? "

Late at night, Sun Jinming and Gu Chen were drinking wine. When he heard what Gu Chen had seen and heard during the day, he suddenly jumped up.

"Brother Gu, do you know what kind of place the Heaven's Equal Peak is? Why are you so pedantic! "Sun Jinming scratched the back of his head impatiently. He had an exasperated expression on his face.

"Is this Heaven's Equal Peak special?" Gu Chen asked casually as he drank wine.

Due to the meeting with the old ape during the day, he became very agitated. Originally, he was determined to take White Ape away. But now, due to morality and scruples, he couldn't bring himself to do so.

That was why he was drinking with his old friend, hoping to relieve his depression.

Compared to him, the white ape was much more carefree. It seemed as if he didn't care about this matter at all.

The wine on the Ape Planet was the fruit wine brewed by the Heart Ape Race itself. It tasted great, but it had drunk too much tonight. It had fallen asleep at the side.

"It's not just special. That's the original residence of the Heaven's Equal Immortal Emperor. It's the undisputed sacred mountain of the Inner Ape Tribe!"

Sun Jinming was flustered and exasperated as he explained, "Heaven's Equal Peak isn't open to outsiders. Even within the Inner Ape Clan, only a few people are allowed to enter once or twice. Most of the clansmen don't even have the qualifications to enter it in their entire lives! "

"Our ancestors actually allowed you to enter that place, Brother Gu. This is the first time this has ever happened! Perhaps in the entire history of the Heart-Ape Tribe, this has never happened before! "

Sun Jinming's explanation made Gu Chen realize the value of this gift.

When he heard the words' Heaven's Equal ', he guessed that it had something to do with the Heaven's Equal Immortal Emperor. This was indeed not a simple place.

If he really accepted such a great gift, he probably wouldn't have any reason to take White Ape away.

Not only would he not be able to take him away, but the Heart Ape Tribe probably wanted to use this opportunity to completely end his karma with White Ape.

Gu Chen couldn't help but sigh. It seemed like the Heart Ape Tribe was still xenophobic and didn't want to have any unnecessary connections with outsiders.

"It's said that after Heaven's Equal Immortal Emperor left the Immortal Realm and found his own Planet of the Ape, he lived on the Heaven's Equal Peak for a long time. Over time, the Heaven's Equal Peak was filled with his Dao marks. Anyone who entered would have a chance to gain enlightenment. "

"The Dao marks left behind by an Immortal Emperor are so precious that even Immortal Supremes would fight for a chance to gain enlightenment. Yet, you actually rejected it!"

"That's not all. It's said that Heaven's Equal Immortal Emperor sealed his Emperor Weapon, the Freedom Stick, in the Sacred Mountain so that the fated one could pull it out!"

"Also, it's said that the Heaven's Equal Peak is filled with medicinal herbs that have been growing for hundreds of thousands of years. There's also an Immortal Peach Tree. Eating one of its fruits can increase a mortal's lifespan by 65,555 years. If it's refined according to the recipe, it can even be refined into a divine medicine!"

Sun Jinming chattered on, feeling sorry for Gu Chen for missing out on such a great opportunity.

Gu Chen didn't have much of a reaction, but the sleeping White Ape's ears suddenly twitched. It was like a glutton's instinct. When it heard about the Immortal Peach Tree, its eyes suddenly opened and it swallowed its saliva.

"Even if you're the little ancestor of the Heart Ape Tribe, you're not allowed to have any ideas about the Heaven's Equal Peak." Gu Chen looked at the awakened White Ape and knew what it was thinking.

Indeed, regardless of whether it had lost its memory, a glutton was still a glutton. It would never forget its instinct to steal.

"Ji Ji!"

White Ape instantly looked aggrieved as it waved its tiny claws.

Gu Chen understood its meaning. It was complaining that it didn't have a single treasure on it.

Originally, White Ape had a rainbow-coloured tree, which was a treasure that accompanied the two brothers of the Desolate God Clan. However, after it was gifted to the Desolate God Clan by the Immeasurable Demon God Sect, the treasure returned to the Desolate God Ancestor.

Therefore, it was all alone now. When it heard that the Heaven's Equal Peak was filled with treasures, it immediately had an idea.

"If you're really lacking in treasures, you can just get your disciples and grand-disciples to give them to you. I believe they'll be more than happy to do so." Gu Chen was speechless.

"Ji Ji! Ji Ji! "White Ape replied excitedly. How could a gift be better than stealing?

Gu Chen's face turned black when he heard that. He immediately knocked White Ape's head.

"Ji Ji!"

White Ape was instantly furious. Just as it was about to argue, it suddenly looked out of the window and fell silent.

"What's the matter?" Gu Chen furrowed his brows.

White Ape's eyes revealed a perplexed look. It quickly ran to the window and stuck its head out to take a look. All it saw was darkness in the mountain forest. There was nothing. Scratching its head, it returned to the house.

The few of them continued making a ruckus. Outside the house, in the reflection of an ancient tree, a pair of cat-like eyes blinked.

"The residence of the Heaven's Equal Immortal Emperor … An Emperor Weapon, and a chance to gain enlightenment …"

"The Old Man has been stuck in this realm for 25,555 years. If he could gain something from that place, why would he risk his life for the Jingling Taoist?"

"With the Old Man's abilities, he's confident that he won't be discovered when he sneaks into the Heaven's Equal Peak. However, if he were to capture this kid first, the chances of him being exposed would greatly increase …"
