Chapter 1906: 534 Gale Will and the Summoning Banner_2
Masses of fluff grew from the surface of his skin; his limbs became longer and more powerful, and his figure more erect!
âShapeshifting Form: Eastern Immortal Ape!â
Puff!
Puff!
Puff!
Dust rose.
There was a slight sound from the cliff above the platform.
The nearby Wind Demons lowered their heads.
They could only see slight rockfalls and more sounds from beneath the mountain.
But within that rolling dust,
It seemed they couldnât detect any traces of human disturbance.
They hadnât even seen a single shadow!
âChatter chatter chatter!â
A few gathering Wind Demons whispered among themselves.
They were puzzled about the events occurring on the cliffsideâ
They had rushed over at the first sound of movement and the first hint of air current change.
Yet they hadnât found any traces left by the perpetrator.
Could this have been a collective hallucination?
Just as the Wind Demons were at a loss, suddenly, one Wind Demon, surprised, pointed toward their heads, and all the Wind Demons looked up, then they witnessed a scene they would likely never comprehendâ
More dust and fine rock fragments tumbled down from the top of the cliff.
The area where the dust had risen formed a thin trail of dust from bottom to top.
And at the very end of that trail of dust,
At the highest point where the rocks had fallen,
A monkey-like figure was climbing at an unimaginable speed!
His speed was so fast
That the mad demons only saw a glimpse for two or three seconds, then the monkeyâs figure completely disappeared into the dust on the cliff!
A few Wind Demons clearly refused to give in.
They chased up the trail of dust for a while before realizing the gap between themâ
Wind Demons are the only species capable of maintaining medium-speed flight on the cliffs of Wind-Supporting Slope.
And the other party could only climb.
But the climbing speed of the Eastern Immortal Ape was many times faster than the usual flying speed of a mad demon!
This completely baffled the Wind Demons.
However, among them were some quick thinkers.
One Wind Demon, realizing they couldnât catch up, immediately let out a âchatter chatter chatterâ shriek; they tried to pass along the alert to warn their companions higher up about the outsider.
It must be said,
This tactic was effective.
The climbing speed of the Eastern Immortal Ape was fast, but it couldnât surpass the speed of sound.
Therefore, before long,
Matthew collided with two Wind Demons who had prepared their position well in advance.
However, the agility of the Immortal Ape was astonishing.
Facing the encirclement and blockade by the Wind Demons above, Matthew simply burst into a leap, instantly leaving the enemies behind.
Then he continued using his otherworldly climbing ability to further distance them.
On the other hand,
Although the Wind Demons below had already issued a series of alert calls,
The higher he climbed,
The fewer the number of Wind Demons distributed above.
This resulted in Matthew encountering fewer obstacles than expected.
The most troublesome was a single elite Wind Demon, which twinkled with an odd rune glow.
This brute came at him with fangs and claws.
Instead, it received a slap from the Immortal Ape, nearly shattering its core, and quickly became docile.
After that,
Matthew walked as if on flat ground; flinging up along the way, he not only successfully crossed the side of Wind-Supporting Slope in one go but also managed to swipe some treasure chests from several Wind Demon nests en route!
Thatâs right.
There were treasure chests in the Wind Demon nests.
And the higher he went, the higher the probability of encountering a chest.
Matthew didnât have time to investigate the situation in detail; he was too busy âStealing.â
But afterward, it wasnât hard to guess.
These chests were very likely meant to be offerings for the lords participating in the lesson of Windâs Profound Meaning at the ceremonial field.
âCausing such a commotion, and the Wind Demon Lord hasnât appeared, the news probably wonât get out for a whileâŠâ
Despite this,
Upon successfully getting away and reaching the top of the cliff, Matthew still released Lorraine and others, and entrusted Lorraine to spread some rumors as a distraction regarding his climbing action.
âDonât worry, this is my old profession. I can start with a ânews lockdownâ. That should hold for at least seven days. After that, Iâll release various versions of mixed truths so no one will know it was you who crossed Wind-Supporting Slope.â
Lorraine patted his chest to confirm.
Matthew felt somewhat relieved.
Although Lorraine was usually unreliable, he came through in crucial moments.
A Legendary Minstrel wielded almost monopolistic influence on regional news.
As long as there wasnât another Legendary Minstrel nearby, then Lorraineâs news lockdown was almost guaranteed.
Of course,
All this assumed that the Wind Demon Lord had not left seclusion.
To avoid unnecessary risks,
The group hurried along their way.
On the road,
Matthew took the time to open those treasure chests; apart from a vast amount of wealth, there were some valuable itemsâ
âŠ
âGale Will: A node token of the Gale Domain, with this item, you can better enter the Gale Domain and related domains.â
âFour Symbols Card (Mystical Item/White Tiger Profound Truth): Once you have acquired a certain level of sky authority, you can activate this item.
You can use the Four Symbols Card to set up the Four Symbols Array Formation, thereby summoning the Ancient Four Symbols Power to assist and apply different spell effects to specific areasâŠâ
âSoul Treasure Pearl: A pearl refined from 100 pure souls, itâs a treasure worth a fortune in the Nine Tier Purgatory, usually requiring 300-500 high-quality souls for an equivalent exchange.
Consuming the Soul Treasure Pearl will grant you a large amount of XP and a small amount of Abilities or Spells from the refined souls.â
