Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 569 Deal with the Mandrill

All the retreat routes of the mandrill have been blocked.

Faced with such a situation, of course the mandrill can’t escape. Even if it becomes a spirit, it may not be able to get away either.

Therefore, simply put, the current case is a group of top gamers versus an AI player.

If the mandrill can still strike back, it will be too humiliating for them.

When the mandrill wants to escape, a beam of golden light is stricken to press the mandrill down. The golden light comes from Gao Ge’s bronze mirror.

“Where are you fleeing?” Yue Xincheng shouts in an imposing manner, but the Slaying Dragon Broadsword he holds is not suitable enough for the current scene. He should hold the golden cudgel like Monkey King.

The mandrill roars, “I bear no grudge against you. Why do you want to catch me?”

“Ahem. It’s because you...” Yue Xincheng hedges and fails to think of a reason after pondering for a while.

Gao Ge takes a step forward and says calmly, “That day when the secret realm of Mount Duanlong was opened, you defrauded others of their fortune. Your intention isn’t right.”

“Hum. As a mandrill, what’s wrong with me taking away others’ fortune for my own cultivation? All the cultivators do that. Won’t you hurt others for becoming stronger?” The mandrill sniffs at Gao Ge’s words.

Gao Ge laughs, “I don’t have anything to say about your argument. You make a good point. In this case, why did you ask then?”

Yue Xincheng was made speechless by the mandrill.

Now the mandrill is made speechless by Gao Ge.

The mandrill realizes that continuing talking with Gao Ge won’t be of any help, so it starts to run about, trying to escape from the siege laid by Gao Ge and his peers.

Gao Ge asks Rakshasa, “Madam, how should we take away its fortune?”

“Get it injured and then leave it to me,” Rakshasa says.

Gao Ge nods his head, “Okay.” After saying that, he holds the sword and acts much faster. The Flying Star Sword in his hand glistens with sword light. Beams of sword light intertwine, leaving no room for the mandrill to escape.

The golden monkey and the fox spirit are just standing aside quietly with a slightly embarrassed look on their faces. It seems that they don’t need to do any favor at all!

Well. In this case, they should just stay aside and look on.

When the mandrill is hit down from a height by Gao Ge, it happens to fall before Rakshasa.

Rakshasa reaches out her hand to grip the mandrill and meanwhile pats the mandrill with the other hand. Instantly, the mandrill stops struggling, whose body looks seemingly a bit rigid.

The mandrill still wants to scold him fiercely but then it doesn’t even have a chance to speak.

A beam of light is ripped out of the mandrill and spilt into two halves. One half of it lands on Chen Wangshi and the other half goes at Gao Ge. Undoubtedly, this is the fortune ripped out of the mandrill.

“Wait!” Gao Ge shouts.

The red light immediately stops.

Rakshasa stares at Gao Ge with a frown in confusion, “What’s wrong?”

“As to the fortune, anyone who is here gets a share. They should get a share of their own,” Gao Ge takes a look at Yue Xincheng and the others, saying with a smile, “Oh right. The fox spirit and the golden monkey too.”

“Um?” Rakshasa laughs and says, “Are you serious?”

“Boss, we don’t want it! It’s good enough that we follow you,” Yue Xincheng hastens to say.

The golden monkey shakes its head, “Neither do I need it.”

“Keep it for yourself,” Xia Lu speaks.

The fox spirit is a bit thrilled and feels that Gao Ge is a great master, but since Yue Xincheng and the golden monkey said that, she has no idea what to say then. If she shows too much of her desire, Gao Ge may think that she is disloyal. Therefore, she can only condemn Yue Xincheng and the golden monkey sullenly in her heart.

“Enough. No more talking,” Gao Ge shakes his head and says, “This time, in order to capture the mandrill, not only me but also everybody makes a contribution, especially Qingrou. She has walked for a long time while carrying Chen Wangshi on her back. Moreover, Yue Xincheng, of course I will always protect you, but what if I’m not with you one day? You also need to look after Qingrou, so it won’t be a bad thing to enhance your capability.”

Yue Xincheng takes a look at Gao Ge’s serious facial expression, heaves a sigh and says nothing more.

Without hesitation, Rakshasa divides the rest of the fortune into several shares and then injects it respectively into Gao Ge, Yue Xincheng and the others.

“Everything is done,” Rakshasa says that, closes her eyes and passes out.

Luckily, Qingrou has stood by her side so she hastens to fetch her.

As to the mandrill, it turns into spots of ashes and then fades away. Perhaps many years later, it will transform into a mandrill again, but it is hard to say whether Gao Ge will be alive at that time.

After all, it takes a mandrill a long time to cultivate itself.

Of course, even if he realizes that, Gao Ge won’t feel guilty about what happened to the mandrill.

As the mandrill said, that is the rule of cultivation–the big fish eating the small ones. If Gao Ge and his peers are no match for the mandrill, how can the mandrill let go of them?

Mercy is the biggest joke in the field of immortal cultivation. Although many people always talk of mercy, it is literally impossible for them to show mercy.

Compared with the other cultivators, Gao Ge and his friends are really aboveboard and straightforward.

Perhaps some cultivators may criticize Gao Ge for being hypocritical in secret after hearing of his way of doing things.

“Hey, Boss, what on earth is fortune? I don’t feel anything special!” Yue Xincheng smacks his lips and says, looking as if he has had a dainty repast.

“It is hard to explain but it exists all the time. As to its function, maybe it will be shown in the future,” Gao Ge says with a smile.

“Okay...” Yue Xincheng nods his head and kind of looks forward to it.

Gao Ge takes a few steps forward, fetches Chen Wangshi from Qingrou, turns around and says, “Now that the mandrill has been dealt with, it’s time for us to go back.”

Actually, on the whole, the action of capturing the mandrill went pretty well. After all, the mandrill hasn’t become a spirit. If it did, they wouldn’t catch it so easily. Hence, it should be credited to their luck.

However, the mandrill is not that lucky. It took the mandrill so much effort to cultivate itself to this extent but it becomes the stepping stone of Gao Ge and his friends for cultivation.

It also gives Gao Ge a reminder.

Nowadays, in the world, there are a lot of people stronger than him. If he doesn’t want to become their stepping stone, he must improve his capability constantly.

How stressful!

“I wonder whether the fortune can help me find Meng Jing as soon as possible...” Gao Ge thinks to himself and gives a bitter smile.

Huaxia is too big a place. It is like fishing a needle out of the sea to find Meng Jing without even a clue. If needed, he can run around. Hard as it is, he must do it.

While he is ruminating, the fox spirit suddenly stops.

“What’s wrong?” Gao Ge turns around and looks at the fox spirit, asking.

The fox spirit says nothing and slowly closes her eyes. After a while, she opens her eyes, saying, “Master, please be careful.”

“Um?” Gao Ge is taken aback. Hasn’t the mandrill been taken care of?

“I seem to have sensed the Qi of the people of the Poison Sect,” the fox spirit says in a serious tone.
