On the other side of the battlefield, Xu Ding had retreated with the Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry.
After all, on the battlefield, the Dragon Smoke Incense’s effect had also affected them. As for the Mandrill Guards, they were fine.
The person who replaced him was Xu Chu.
Ever since Mei Changge came out, Xu Chu’s attention had been on his brother, Xu Ding.
“Crimson Sun Vigil—White Rainbow Shift!”
Xu Chu looked at the Mandrill Guards in black armor with an excited expression.
He was now able to launch an attack. If it weren’t for the fact that his brother Xu Ding’s Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry had reached an impasse, he would have already engaged the Mandrill Guards in battle alongside the Golden Crow Guards.
However, it was not too late to make a move.
Golden light surged from the Golden Crow Guards like a warm sun, but their killing intent did not decrease at all.
“Power of the Mountain God! Mountain Seeking Spirit Trace!”
As soon as the Golden Crow Guards’ formation rose, the Mandrill Guards felt that something was amiss. They instantly activated the power of the Mandrill bloodline in their bodies and tried to resist the Golden Crow Guards.
However, when the Mandrill Guards realized that the Golden Crow Guards appeared to have the ability to teleport, their frustration deepened.
The Golden Crow Guards teleported too quickly. As soon as the attack landed, they disappeared from the spot. When they appeared again, they had already appeared elsewhere.
This was simply cheating.
However, this was not spatial teleportation.
In reality, the Golden Crow Guards moved at such a rapid pace that it gave onlookers a momentary glimpse.
“The Golden Crow Guards are so powerful!”
Song Yubai’s eyes were filled with envy as he looked at Xu Chu and the other Golden Crow Guards fighting the Mandrill Guards.
Back when Xu Chu was a Mystic Yang soldier, the difference between the two of them was not huge. Now that Xu Chu was leading the Golden Crow Guards, there was an obvious difference between them.
Song Yubai was even more envious of the 10,000 Transcendent Golden Crow Guards.
Although he had 50,000 Red Lotus soldiers under him, they were not a match for the Golden Crow Guards.
However, he also knew that as Mei Changge’s guards, the Golden Crow Guards were different from ordinary soldiers.
When he thought about how the Red Lotus soldiers and the Golden Crow Guards were Grade 6 soldiers, he felt a surge of motivation.
We’re all in Grade 6. Ifyou can do it, so can I!
If all the Red Lotus soldiers transformed into Transcendent soldiers, they would not be weaker than the Golden Crow Guards.
The battle continued. Other than a wolf that did not attract anyone’s attention and silently entered Mandrill City, everyone’s gazes landed on King Mandrill and Mei Changge in the sky.
As for the battlefield, other than the Mandrill Guards who were still fighting, and the Golden Crow Guards, the rest had already reached the end.
Even the Thousand Heads race had been constantly absorbed by the Thousand Heads Lotus Seed in the sky.
They couldn’t escape.
When the Thousand Heads Lotus Seed noticed them, they were destined to become its nutrients.
“Huh?!”
A hint of uncertainty flickered in King Mandrill’s eves. They had been locked in combat with Mei Changge for a considerable duration, yet Mei Changge appeared to be unscathed, while King Mandrill’s spiritual energy was on the brink of exhaustion.
If Mei Changge knew what King Mandrill was thinking, he would probably laugh.
Although the White Jade Spirit Body had dissipated, his strength was still present. If he was given some time, he could still use the White Jade Spirit Body again.
As for the problem of spiritual energy, he could mobilize it from the Blessed Land and instantly recover.
As for stalling for time, it was impossible.
“Looks like you can’t hold on anymore.”
Mei Changge noticed that King Mandrill had slowed down and even the black fog around him began to thin. At that moment, he instantly understood King Mandrill’s state.
“Die!”
When King Mandrill heard Mei Changge’s words, his expression did not change. He gathered black spiritual energy handprints again, which contained the power of divine arts.
A heavy aura exuded from the black handprints.
“It’s this move again!”
Mei Changge wore a somewhat helpless expression. He had witnessed King Mandrill’s attempt to combine the power of divine arts into this handprint multiple times, and it could be said that King Mandrill’s methods were mediocre.
However, Mei Changge didn’t dare to confront it head-on.
The amount of spiritual energy in Mei Changge’s body was immeasurable. Additionally, it appeared that the White Jade Spirit Body had a cooldown period. He would activate it intermittently and engage in direct combat with King Mandrill.
During the cooldown period, Mei Changge evaded King Mandrill’s attacks swiftly.
However, King Mandrill couldn’t take it. Not only was the spiritual energy in his body limited, but he wasn’t suppressing the curse in his body, allowing the spiritual energy in its body to be continuously absorbed. He noticed that the power of the Mandrill bloodline in his body had been absorbed by the ghostly face.
“Let’s end this!”
Mei Changge’s eyes were calm. He could already sense King Mandrill’s current state.
“White Jade Spirit Body!”
Once again, white light erupted from his body as the cooldown period for the White Jade Spirit Body had concluded.
The white lotus flower appeared in Mei Changge’s eyes again. As he used the
White Jade Spirit Body, his aura became mysterious and noble again.
Apart from that, golden lotuses began to appear around him, carrying the power of extreme Yang and heat. They were condensed from the Nine Yang Spirit Fire.
However, to Mei Changge, these lotus flowers were great in tempering his body, yet fatal to his enemies.
“Go, Golden Lotus! Seal him!”
Mei Changge gripped the Myriad Lotus Spear in his hand and brandished it, directing it toward King Mandrill. He then uttered a command, causing several golden lotuses to float in the direction of King Mandrill.
They weren’t very quick, but they sealed off King Mandrill’s surroundings.
Sssss!
The golden lotuses condensed by the Nine Yang Spirit Fire kept burning the black fog around King Mandrill.
Moreover, strange sounds were heard.
“Power of the Mountain God, strengthen my body!”
As King Mandrill realized that his body was ensnared by the golden lotuses and sensed an intense surge of Yang and scorching energy consuming the surrounding spiritual power, madness filled his eyes.
The black spiritual energy instantly soared. A few golden lotus flowers were destroyed by this spiritual energy. Unfortunately, it was too late.
The spiritual energy in his body could not support it for long.
As more golden lotuses were formed by the Nine Yang Spirit Fire, the black fog gradually disappeared, revealing King Mandrill’s body.
There were even signs of injuries inflicted by the golden lotus on his body.
“You win!”
King Mandrill’s expression was calm as he looked at Mei Changge and said slowly.
Mei Changge did not speak and looked at him quietly. As for the seal formed by the golden lotus, it did not dissipate.
Even if King Mandrill had reached the end of his rope, he couldn’t stop the golden lotus.
“The Overlord position is yours, and the title of the king is yours.”
“From today onwards, you will be the only Overlord within this thousand miles!”
Though King Mandrill’s tone remained composed, he was filled with fear. After all, he hadn’t anticipated being outwitted to such an extent and meeting his demise at the hands of a Transcendent human.
He hated the Thousand Hands race to the core. Unfortunately, he did not even know the true name of the Thousand Heads race.
But it didn’t matter anymore.
The Thousand Heads race and the Thousand Hands race were not much different to him.
Mei Changge remained silent and did not move as if he were waiting for King Mandrill to be burned to death by the golden lotus.
“By the way, what’s your name?”
At that moment, King Mandrill asked Mei Changge curiously.
After fighting for so long, King Mandrill suddenly realized that he did not even know Mei Changge’s name. He only knew that he was a lord.
“Green Lotus.”
Mei Changge said and fell silent again.
This could be considered his respect for his opponent. After all, King Mandrill knew that he was about to reach the end of his life, but he didn’t beg for mercy or even surrender.
“King Green Lotus!”
A smile suddenly appeared on King Mandrill’s face as he nodded silently.
It was a blessing to die at the hands of an enemy who was about to become a king.
A moment later, the life force within King Mandrill’s body steadily diminished until there was no trace of life remaining..
