156: Chapter 156 The Arrival of the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear

[Rapid Recovery talent Fusion successful.]

A trace of pleasant surprise appeared in Lu Zheng's eyes. Now that the Rapid Recovery talent Fusion was successful, it would be a great opportunity for both the Clone and his true body to increase their combat power once again.

He then looked at the Clone's attribute points, unable to suppress his impatience.

[Clone]: Black Jade Snake

[Rank]: 16

[Talents]: Coil (Second Realm), Digestion Enhancement (Second Realm), Perception (Second Realm), Elite Sharp Fangs (Second Realm), Elite Hardening (Second Realm), Elite Rapid Recovery (Second Realm)

[Ability]: Command (Second Realm)

[Combat Power]: 750

[energy points]: 880,000 / 16,000,000

[Divinity Points]: 163

Now, the Clone's combat power had increased directly to 750 points. The Fusion of the Rapid Recovery talent had increased its combat power by a full 100 points. Even without the help of his true body, the Clone could fight the Burning Fire Vajra Ape alone and kill it.

With the Clone's combat power, it could completely become the third overlord of the mountains.

No, the Clone was already an overlord in the mountains.

Lu Zheng then looked at his own attributes, eager to see them.

[True Body]: Lu Zheng

[Superpower]: Awakening

[Skills]: Digestion Enhancement, Perception, Sharpness, Hardening, Command.

[Martial Arts]: Baji Fist Second Realm (99% Mastery)

[Combat Power]: 775

[Spirit]: 170

[Divinity Points]: 163

His combat power had only increased by 50 points, reaching 775 points. Although the increase was not as exaggerated as the Clone's, Lu Zheng was already satisfied.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Lu Zheng unleashed his full strength. A terrifying Aura spread across the surroundings of the mountains, causing the vast majority of creatures to tremble under this pressure.

Without any attempt to hide, he then fled towards the distant Jianghai City.

While fleeing, he attacked the surroundings without holding back at all. The area immediately turned into ruins, as the terrifying waves of energy destroyed all traces left behind by the two.

"Damn it!"

"Don't think you can be safe just by hiding here."

"Don't celebrate too early; I will kill you here sooner or later."

Lu Zheng's voice rang out, and he immediately left the place, seemingly worried about the terrifying crisis approaching from not far behind him.

"Human, if you have the guts, keep chasing me!"

"I'm ready anytime."

With the Clone's current combat power, it could already speak. However, the two sentences just now were not spoken by the Clone itself, but by Lu Zheng controlling the Clone.

Not long after Lu Zheng left, a terrifying dark shadow appeared at the scene.

It was none other than the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear. It had come because it sensed the Aura of a Human Race powerhouse and was worried that something might happen to the Burning Fire Vajra Ape.

Before arriving here, it had heard the human's voice from just now, as well as the sounds of the battle that had taken place.

However, that human was very alert and had already left before it arrived.

Upon arriving, the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear looked around. The first thing it saw was a giant black snake, whose size and strength were no weaker than the Burning Fire Vajra Ape.

With its second glance, it saw the Burning Fire Vajra Ape lying on the ground, devoid of any life force.

Its eyes froze, and then it flew into a rage. A terrifying Aura erupted. The Burning Fire Vajra Ape had actually died—died in the mountains, under its very nose. How could it accept this?

It had only asked the Burning Fire Vajra Ape to go and help that human infiltrate Jianghai City; it never expected it to die here.

"Third Brother..."

The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear said with grief. What exactly happened? It then looked at the giant snake on the side. Only it would know what happened and how Third Brother died.

"What exactly happened here?"

"Who killed it?"

Seeing this, the Clone hurriedly said angrily, "It was that human who just left. He has been hunting me. I barely managed to escape here, but I didn't expect him to find me anyway."

"Just now, to save me, it was killed by that human."

This was the excuse Lu Zheng had prepared long ago. After hearing the Clone's words, the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear looked at the injuries on Third Brother's body. They were all caused by a human; it seemed it really was killed by that person.

It then looked again in the direction the human had just left. It was Jianghai City.

The anger in its eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

"Damn it, if he had fled any slower, I would definitely have made him die without a burial place!"

"Third Brother, I will not let you die in vain!"

The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear roared, but it had no intention of taking action, nor did it even make a move to chase after Lu Zheng.

This made Lu Zheng, who had been observing this scene through the Clone's body, heave a sigh of relief. It seemed his guess was correct, and the most important part was yet to come.

After the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear finished roaring, it looked at the Black Jade Snake before it and walked up to the corpse of the Burning Fire Vajra Ape.

It extended its incomparably sharp giant claws, directly severed the head of the Burning Fire Vajra Ape, put it into its mouth, and began to suck the brain matter of the Burning Fire Vajra Ape.

A trace of enjoyment flashed in its eyes.

"Third Brother died because of you, and you can't leave now, so you might as well take its place."

"If you don't agree, before that human acts, I will personally pry open your skull and taste your brain matter."

"How about it?"

The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear threatened slowly. Hearing these words, Lu Zheng was even more excited; he had guessed correctly indeed.

There was no brotherly affection in this so-called mountain; it was the law of the jungle. The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear valued benefits and the strength of the mountains. As long as the Burning Fire Vajra Ape could bring it benefits, it was Third Brother.

But if it died, it was just food. It would not avenge the Burning Fire Vajra Ape at all.

The scene before him was the best proof.

Lu Zheng also knew that such existences were often the most terrifying ones.

The Clone feigned reluctance, but could only helplessly agree to become the third overlord of the mountains.

Seeing this, the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear smiled slightly. It then severed one of the giant arms of the Burning Fire Vajra Ape and handed it to the Black Jade Snake Clone.

"Good, from now on, you are Third Brother!"

"You are an overlord of the mountains!"

The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear said loudly, a trace of a smile flashing in its eyes. A Burning Fire Vajra Ape had died, and a stronger Black Jade Snake had arrived—not a bad deal!

As for the truth of what the Black Jade Snake had said, it did not care at all; the result was what mattered most.

It didn't even know if there was a human powerhouse in Jianghai City stronger than itself, and now another human powerhouse capable of killing the Burning Fire Vajra Ape had appeared. Only someone courting death would avenge the Burning Fire Vajra Ape.

Lu Zheng, who had already left, now knew what had happened there through the Clone, and secretly said to himself.

"As expected, I guessed right."

Watching the distance to the base getting closer and closer, Lu Zheng felt a bit uneasy. He did not yet know in what capacity he should return...
