Chapter 441 The Mischievous Rabbit is Kidnapped, Tang San Goes Berserk
The Shrek members didn't seem to notice yet.
At this moment, the entire forest near their campsite, which was once filled with the sounds of insects chirping, birds singing, and beasts roaring, had long since vanished, leaving an eerie silence.
Only Zhao Wuji, who was on night watch, noticed this change and stared warily in one direction.
Just then, in the direction everyone was facing, rows of tall trees suddenly split apart and fell to both sides.
A colossal creature emerged silently from there.
Upon seeing this enormous creature, everyone at Shrek Academy held their breath.
At this moment, everyone finally understood why Zhao Wuji, who was always so confident in his strength, was so nervous.
The sudden appearance of a colossal object, a being as large as a mountain.
His body was enormous, with all four limbs on the ground. His forearms were longer than his hind limbs, and his shoulders were seven or eight meters high.
If it stood upright, its height would definitely exceed fifteen meters.
Under the silvery moonlight, its appearance could be clearly seen; it was a creature that was entirely black and looked like both an ape and a chimpanzee.
Its enormous eyes, like lanterns, shone brightly in the darkness, constantly emitting a crystalline yellow luster.
Almost every inch of its body is covered with muscles as strong as granite, bulging out like small hills, making it look extremely terrifying.
Between the muscles, a glassy fluid flowed slowly, shimmering with golden light under the starlight and moonlight.
One can imagine that its power and explosive force must be extraordinary and its power boundless.
This seemingly terrifying behemoth is one of the two overlords of the Star Dou Great Forest, and also the little brother of Xiao Wu's mischievous rabbit, a 100,000-year-old licking beast—
Titan Ape Erming.
The Titan Ape was enormous, but it moved without making a sound; you couldn't even hear it breathing.
It wasn't until it emerged from the dense forest, with the falling trees behind it creating a deafening roar and causing a violent tremor, that its arrival became known.
"King of the Forest, Titan Ape."
Even the fearless and fierce-looking Zhao Wuji was terrified and his voice trembled when he saw the Titan Giant Ape suddenly appear here.
The Titan Ape is one of the noblest bloodlines among soul beasts. No matter which soul beast forest it appears in, it is an absolute overlord and a true king.
With its powerful physique, the Titan Ape possesses unparalleled strength and speed, and is virtually flawless in both attack and defense.
Even more terrifying is that it possesses innate skills, allowing it to unleash abilities to attack enemies, much like humans use soul skills.
As soon as the Titan Ape appeared, its lantern-sized, crystal-yellow eyes quickly scanned the area before settling on Shrek Academy and his group.
To be precise, it landed on Xiao Wu's mischievous rabbit.
Its goal on this trip is to take Xiao Wu away.
From the moment Xiao Wu stepped into the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, the two licking beasts, Azure Bull Python Daming and Titan Giant Ape Erming, had already spotted her.
It was mainly Xiao Wu's scent, hmm, the smell of rabbit, which was all too familiar to them.
So the Azure Bull Python sent the Titan Giant Ape to personally take Xiao Wu back to the shore of the Lake of Life.
Upon seeing the Titan Ape Erming suddenly appear here, Xiaowu was completely stunned, her eyes filled with nostalgia and excitement, and she didn't immediately explain the situation to the Titan Ape.
When the Titan Ape saw Xiao Wu, it seemed to get too excited. It stood up on its own, clenched its forearms and pounded its chest, letting out a roar like a gorilla. The kingly aura of the king of the forest exploded out.
The entire forest immediately erupted in excitement.
Within a radius of dozens of miles, all the soul beasts inhabiting this area began to become agitated. All those that could move left their territories and quickly fled the forest where the Titan Giant Ape had appeared.
This sparked a riot among the soul beasts, which quickly spread outwards, affecting an increasingly wider area.
Zhao Wuji could no longer care about the changes in the forest. He sensed the Titan Ape's sudden burst of power and thought it was about to launch an attack.
"I'll hold it off. You guys eat Oscar's Flying Mushroom Sausage and get out of here right now. Hurry!"
There was no other way. Soul beasts and humans were natural enemies, and this Titan Giant Ape would definitely not let them go. Zhao Wuji said this and took the lead in attacking, charging towards the Titan Giant Ape.
During the charge, Zhao Wuji's first, second, third, and fifth spirit rings shone brightly at the same time, unleashing four spirit skills in one go.
A bright golden light instantly enveloped his entire body; this was his first soul skill, the Immovable King Body.
The third and fifth soul skills, Gravity Control and Gravity Compression, are used simultaneously to restrict the Titan Ape's movements.
The second soul skill, the Mighty Vajra Palm, is activated at full power.
After unleashing all four soul skills at once, Zhao Wuji leaped into the air like a cannonball, heading straight for the Titan Giant Ape's head.
At this moment, the rest of the Shrek Academy members finally recovered from the shock brought by the Titan Ape. Upon hearing Zhao Wuji's deep command, they all subconsciously turned and fled.
Oscar quickly pulled out the "Want to Fly" mushroom sausages he had prepared in advance, intending to distribute them to the group.
A somewhat untimely voice suddenly rang out from the crowd:
"No, we can't leave."
The one who spoke was Tang San.
He stepped forward from the crowd, scanned the Shrek Seven Devils, and then, with a serious and righteous expression, said:
"Shrek is a team, we can't abandon Teacher Zhao alone, we have to help him."
In truth, he knew that Zhao Wuji couldn't buy much time against the Titan Giant Ape, the king of the Star Dou Great Forest. If the Titan Giant Ape insisted on killing them, none of them would be able to escape.
After all, the Titan Giant Ape's strength is comparable to that of a Title Douluo, and even ordinary Title Douluos are no match for it.
"That's right, we can't leave."
Dai Mubai and Ning Rongrong both nodded in agreement.
Both of them came from powerful families, so they naturally had some understanding of the Titan Ape's strength.
Oscar and Ma Hongjun looked at each other, neither of them recognizing the Titan Ape nor knowing what it meant.
However, seeing that Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Ning Rongrong were not leaving, they had no choice but to stay as well.
Only Xiao Wu remained silent, ignoring the others' words, her gaze fixed on the Titan Ape, her eyes filled with joy.
However, since everyone's attention was not on her at the moment, no one noticed anything unusual about her.
"Mu Bai, Fatty, you two come with me to help Teacher Zhao. Xiao Ao, you prepare sausages, cured sausages, and mushroom sausages, ready to provide emergency support. Ning Rongrong, you're in charge of support, boosting our attributes. Xiao Wu, you're in charge of protecting Xiao Ao and Ning Rongrong."
Taking this opportunity, Tang San immediately replaced Dai Mubai, took over the command position, and began to assign tasks to the Shrek Seven Devils.
Among the Shrek Six Monsters, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Xiao Wu, and Tang San are capable of combat.
Tang San certainly couldn't let Xiao Wu face the Titan Giant Ape directly, so he selfishly arranged for her to protect Oscar and Ning Rongrong, only letting Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun join him in the fight.
Oscar's sausage support is pretty good, but unfortunately he's a total weakling and can't provide any combat power.
Ning Rongrong's support abilities are outstanding. Her martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, is indeed unique, and no one can deny that.
Although Ning Rongrong's performance these past few days hasn't been great, she's been very useful and a very helpful tool.
Tang San had already developed a slight liking for her, so he no longer rejected Ning Rongrong and assigned her a very important auxiliary task.
"As for... um? Where are they?"
Tang San finally remembered Ye Qifeng and Zhu Zhuqing.
But when he was about to use the two of them to fight the Titan Ape and assign them tasks, he suddenly discovered that Ye Qifeng and Zhu Zhuqing had already gone to a safer location.
Tang San's face immediately turned dark.
Indeed, one should not associate with those who are not of the same ilk, and one should not trust those who are courting death; they should be sent to their deaths.
The situation was urgent. Zhao Wuji had already rushed to the Titan Giant Ape. The Shrek Seven Devils did not have time to think and quickly activated their martial souls and revealed their soul rings.
"The seven treasures are transformed into lapis lazuli. The seven treasures have names: the first is power, the second is speed."
The dazzling Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda spun out from Ning Rongrong's palm, and the two soul rings under her feet lit up at the same time, with eight soul lights shooting out from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda simultaneously.
Six beams of soul light landed on Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun, in pairs.
The last two beams of soul light flew towards Zhao Wuji, landing on him just as his palm was about to strike the Titan Giant Ape's forehead.
boom--
With a deafening roar, the Mighty Vajra Palm, its power and speed greatly amplified, slammed heavily onto the Titan Ape's forehead.
The Titan Ape's head was slapped so hard it flipped backward.
With the assistance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Zhao Wuji's Mighty Vajra Palm has been amplified by 30%, making it comparable to a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse.
However, this attack was nothing more than a tickle to the Titan Giant Ape, a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
The Titan Ape, who was extremely excited to see Xiao Wu, was immediately enraged by Zhao Wuji's sudden attack.
As it roared furiously, it raised one of its thick forelimbs and slapped Zhao Wuji, who had been thrown into the air.
boom--
Caught off guard, Zhao Wuji, with nowhere to grab hold while in mid-air, took a full slap from the Titan Ape and flew like a ball into the dense forest to the side, crashing through countless trees.
At that moment, Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun arrived right in front of the Titan Giant Ape.
Tang San is on the left, Dai Mubai is on the right, and Ma Hongjun is in the center.
Tang San and Dai Mubai had the same goal: to take the two hind legs of the Titan Giant Ape.
Dai Mubai wielded eight-foot-long claws with both hands and slashed fiercely at the Titan Ape's right leg, sending sparks flying, but he couldn't even cut through the Titan Ape's skin.
To deal with the Titan Giant Ape, Dai Mubai used his claw attacks, while Tang San used his ultimate move, Blue Silver Entanglement.
Suddenly, strange, ring-shaped, bluish-black vines grew rapidly from Tang San's right hand, surging wildly towards the Titan Ape in an attempt to control its movements.
However, it couldn't even entangle its ankles.
With just a slight lift of its foot, the Titan Ape shattered all the Blue Silver Grass, without even a hint of tightness.
The one who truly posed a threat to the Titan Ape was Ma Hongjun, who was attacking from the center.
To say that Ma Hongjun truly lives up to her reputation as a lewd and shameless courtesan is an understatement; the places she attacks are so unique, so lewd and insidious.
Looking at the enormous and terrifying Titan Ape, it would be a lie to say that Ma Hongjun wasn't panicked. Just now, a huge ball had grazed his forehead and flown out of his body; it looked like Zhao Wuji.
Even a Soul Saint like Zhao Wuji was sent flying, so what can a mere Great Soul Master do?
But now that they had arrived in front of the Titan Ape, the arrow was on the bowstring and they had no choice but to release it. Ma Hongjun's small eyes quickly scanned the Titan Ape's body, and suddenly his eyes lit up when he spotted something huge and a bit sloppy.
"Second Soul Skill, Phoenix Reborn from the Ashes!"
"First Soul Skill, Phoenix Fire Line!"
Ma Hongjun smiled sinisterly, his two spirit rings flashing simultaneously. He was engulfed in purplish-red flames, and the phoenix flames instantly increased by thirty percent, condensing into a line of fire as thick as an arm in his mouth. He then suddenly spat it out towards a certain part of the Titan Giant Ape's lower abdomen.
This attack method is Ma Hongjun's favorite and most proficient technique, commonly known as "roasted chicken".
The Titan Ape originally didn't intend to pay any attention to Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun, these three little insects, but who knew that Ma Hongjun would be so shameless as to breathe fire towards its lower abdomen.
Although the flames did not harm it, they only burned a little bit of its fur, giving it a slight warmth.
But that's its most important and cherished part; it's meant for its beloved Little Dance Sister.
The Titan Ape couldn't stand it. It raised its thick right leg and first kicked Dai Mubai, who was standing to the side, away. Then it raised its leg back and kicked forward, aiming at Ma Hongjun, who liked roast chicken.
Ma Hongjun was basking in the satisfaction of roasting the Titan Ape's lower body when he saw the sudden attack of a large black foot. His smile froze instantly, and before he could react, he was kicked by a thick, black, giant foot.
Immediately afterwards, he was sent flying backward, even faster than Zhao Wuji and Dai Mubai.
It eventually crashed into a large tree in the forest, slid to the ground, and its fate is unknown.
Zhao Wuji, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun flew out one after another, leaving only Tang San in the arena.
Enraged by Ma Hongjun, the Titan Ape clearly had no intention of letting him go. It raised its thick right leg, ready to stomp down on Tang San's head.
"Ah—no!"
Suddenly, a shrill scream rang out. The Titan Ape's stomping motion faltered, and its massive, black foot inexplicably lost its aim, landing just two or three centimeters in front of Tang San.
With a loud thud, it stomped a deep crater in the ground.
However, the immense and unstoppable impact still struck Tang San, sending him flying.
With a spurt of thick blood, Tang San quickly hung from a large tree not far away, sliding down the tree like a painting, and lay on the ground for a long time, unable to get up.
The Titan Ape ignored him, roared, landed on all fours, and leaped towards Xiao Wu's direction.
The person who spoke up to stop the Titan Ape from trampling on Tang San was naturally Xiao Wu.
It was because of her voice that Tang San was spared the fate of being stomped on by the Titan Giant Ape.
Of course, the rabbit's shout also brought the Titan Ape back to its senses, reminding it of its goal.
The Titan Ape leaped more than ten meters, landing right on top of Ning Rongrong's head.
Ning Rongrong was stunned when she saw the Titan Ape leaping towards her. If Oscar hadn't reacted quickly and pulled her back, she would probably have been crushed into a meat patty with her fragile little body.
The two rolled around on the ground a few times and came to rest right under the belly of the Titan Ape. Apart from the intense tremors, they were not injured.
However, Ning Rongrong fainted after hitting her head on the ground while rolling.
The Titan Ape ignored them completely, and suddenly raised its thick right forelimb, grabbing Xiao Wu in its hand.
Immediately afterwards, it turned around, took off, and in just one leap, it was already a hundred meters away, quickly disappearing into the depths of the dense forest.
"No—, Xiao Wu!"
Not far away, Tang San, who had slipped from a tree and was coughing up blood, was seriously injured. When he saw Xiao Wu being kidnapped by the Titan Giant Ape, his eyes instantly turned red.
