Chapter 466 441: If You're Crazy, I'll Be Even Crazier

Red Cliff Celestial Ape stared at Zhaang Ye, his eyes filled with a thick, violent aura. He had always held himself in extremely high regard, but in this entrance tournament, he had been defeated by both Zhaang Ye and Mo Luo in succession, a great humiliation.

Mo Luo was too bizarre, his strength too tyrannical; Red Cliff Celestial Ape couldn't even muster the thought of revenge. But Zhaang Ye was different. During their last battle, Red Cliff Celestial Ape had sensed that their strengths were not far apart. And now that his own power had increased, he felt that defeating Zhaang Ye would be an effortless task.

'In this battle, I will crush Zhaang Ye under my heel!'

"WHOOSH!"

The moment the referee announced the start, Red Cliff Celestial Ape took a sudden step forward and threw a punch at Zhaang Ye!

This punch from Red Cliff Celestial Ape contained not only immense, unparalleled power but also his absolute will to kill. Within that small fist lay an endless killing intent and a desire for destruction. The destructive aura was so tangible that it made the spectators turn pale with fright, unable to even speak!

A glint flashed in Zhaang Ye's eyes. 'After his power-up, Red Cliff Celestial Ape's strength has truly increased tremendously! Even I'm secretly shocked by the force he's unleashing now. What's more terrifying is the violent aura within his fist. In the face of this all-destroying presence, I can feel a chill run down my spine!'

As the fist closed in, the sound of a dragon's roar and an elephant's cry suddenly echoed from within Zhaang Ye's body, and his frame abruptly seemed to grow taller. Zhaang Ye clenched his fist, his large hand glittering with golden light as he threw a punch of his own!

"BOOM!"

The two fists collided in midair, creating a deafening boom like mountains crashing into each other. The entire valley shook violently, sparking a wave of screams.

After the head-on clash, neither Zhaang Ye nor Red Cliff Celestial Ape retreated a single step. Red Cliff Celestial Ape stared grimly at Zhaang Ye, his eyes a mixture of madness and destruction. He had only one thought right now: destroy everything! He felt that everything in the world was utterly detestable and shouldn't exist. Their only proper fate was to be completely annihilated!

And Zhaang Ye was his first target for destruction!

"WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!"

Red Cliff Celestial Ape threw three punches with lightning speed. Each punch held the power of Moving Mountains and Leveling Seas. Each punch could kill a Fierce Beast weighing hundreds of thousands of pounds. Each punch could instantly kill a Half-Step True Dao Expert!

An ordinary Half-Step True Dao Expert would have been scared to death by Red Cliff Celestial Ape's tangible aura of destruction, rendered utterly powerless before his fists. But Zhaang Ye's will was incredibly resolute. No matter how terrifying Red Cliff Celestial Ape's destructive aura and fists were, they could not shake Zhaang Ye's resolve.

"WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!"

In that same instant, Zhaang Ye also threw three punches, meeting Red Cliff Celestial Ape's fists head-on!

"BOOM BOOM BOOM!"

This was a clash of strength against strength, and a contest of will against will! With three heavy impacts, the entire valley shook violently three times. The spectators felt as if their hearts had been hammered three times, an incredibly uncomfortable sensation. Some of those with weaker Cultivation even started bleeding from their seven orifices—a miserable sight.

After the three-fold clash, Zhaang Ye felt an extreme pain wracking his entire arm. The qi and blood in his body churned like the raging waves of the sea; he felt he could spit out a mouthful of blood at any moment!

Red Cliff Celestial Ape wasn't faring well either. Blood was faintly seeping from his seven orifices, and cracks had even appeared on his arms!

In that three-part exchange, Zhaang Ye had come out with a slight advantage. His body had been tempered by three types of Ancient Power. Even with Red Cliff Celestial Ape's extraordinary natural gifts, he was no match for Zhaang Ye in this regard.

Red Cliff Celestial Ape was at a slight disadvantage in the head-on clash. If he were clear-headed, he would have certainly changed his attack strategy and avoided trading blows with Zhaang Ye. But his mind was now controlled by destruction and slaughter. A thick, destructive aura rose from his entire body. All he wanted was to kill, kill, kill, kill, kill—to kill everything before him. Seeing that Zhaang Ye had actually met his attacks head-on, Red Cliff Celestial Ape became even more frenzied!

"ROAR!"

Red Cliff Celestial Ape let out a beast-like roar, a sound filled with a dense aura of destruction and slaughter, like a killing monster that had clawed its way out of the depths of hell!

"HISS! How... how terrifying is Red Cliff Celestial Ape!"

"Heavens, Red Cliff Celestial Ape isn't human anymore! He's a monster now!"

"Gods. In his current state, I'm afraid even the King of Hell, Mo Luo, wouldn't be his match! Zhaang Ye is in trouble now!"

"Yeah, exactly! Red Cliff Celestial Ape has clearly gone mad, so why aren't the three Elders intervening to subdue him? In his current state, if he steps off that arena, he'll definitely go on a rampage. Heavens, just thinking about it makes my skin crawl!"

The spectators' faces turned pale as they watched Red Cliff Celestial Ape. The referee also sensed that something was wrong. He looked toward the three Sect Elders, awaiting their instructions.

The three Elders exchanged a look. Finally, the Seventh Elder used the Sound Transmission Technique to slowly say, "Although Red Cliff Celestial Ape is not in his right mind, he has fought his way to this point. We have no reason to disqualify him. The match will continue. If Zhaang Ye knows he is outmatched, he can verbally concede. If Zhaang Ye doesn't know when to advance or retreat, then he has no one to blame but himself for getting injured."

Having received the Elders' instructions, the referee relaxed and continued to watch the battle on the arena.

"ROAR ROAR ROAR ROAR ROAR!"

Red Cliff Celestial Ape's body flickered with a green light, making him look just like a monster. With every roar, he smashed a punch toward Zhaang Ye. The three-hundred-zhang-wide arena was filled with his sharp, terrifying Fist Gang. Facing Red Cliff Celestial Ape's assault, Zhaang Ye remained silent, swinging his fists to meet each and every attack!

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Fists collided ceaselessly in midair. The violent Fist Gang scattered outwards, hammering the arena's Protective Shield until it was on the verge of collapse. If not for the three Elders reinforcing it in time, the shield would have already shattered. Under the repeated clashes, the impossibly hard Purple Jade Arena cracked under the feet of the two young experts, forming fissures several inches wide!

"Madness! This is madness! Utterly insane!"

"Exactly! Red Cliff Celestial Ape is mad, and Zhaang Ye is mad too! Facing Red Cliff Celestial Ape's attacks, he isn't dodging or evading at all, just meeting them head-on! This is just crazy!"

"Unbelievable, truly unbelievable! This Zhaang Ye's strength is so astounding that even a frenzied Red Cliff Celestial Ape can't defeat him! This Zhaang Ye is the real Power King!"

Red Cliff Celestial Ape had always been known as the "Power King," his strength dominating the field. After his power-up, his strength became even more terrifying. Even the King of Hell, Mo Luo, would likely not dare to trade blows with him. But now, Zhaang Ye was completely ignoring Red Cliff Celestial Ape's power, ignoring his murderous aura, and clashing with him head-on again and again, leaving the audience utterly dumbfounded!

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

With each successive collision, Zhaang Ye only felt the pain in his arm intensify. This pain slowly spread throughout his body until every inch of his muscles ached violently. The injuries Red Cliff Celestial Ape sustained were even more severe than Zhaang Ye's; bloody streaks seeped out from the hair all over his body!

Although Red Cliff Celestial Ape was more heavily injured than Zhaang Ye, he paid his wounds no mind. He only knew how to attack Zhaang Ye punch after punch, as if he would never stop until Zhaang Ye was dead. Seeing such madness, the fighting spirit in Zhaang Ye's heart was also thoroughly ignited.

'You're crazy? I'll be crazier than you!'

'You want to fight to the death? I'll fight even harder!'

A ruthless glint appeared in Zhaang Ye's eyes. The Celestial River Righteous Qi inside him erupted, and his fists suddenly transformed into two glittering golden blades as he took the initiative and attacked!

"SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH!"

Zhaang Ye waved his palms, which moved like a series of sharp golden blades, tearing through layers of Gang Qi as he delivered forty-nine slashes with lightning speed.

With his reason gone, Red Cliff Celestial Ape didn't hesitate in the face of Zhaang Ye's attack. He instantly threw forty-nine punches, perfectly neutralizing Zhaang Ye's assault.

Zhaang Ye let out a cold sneer, his palms shifting again as he launched another attack. This time, Zhaang Ye delivered a total of sixty-four slashes, each one possessing the power to cleave a mountain!

Red Cliff Celestial Ape, expressionless, blocked Zhaang Ye's attack once more. He managed to block it, but his fists were now slashed and dripping with blood from Zhaang Ye's blows. The Purple Jade Arena beneath his feet was being stomped into a web of cracks.

Seeing that Red Cliff Celestial Ape was about to buckle, Zhaang Ye felt a secret surge of delight and roared, "Again!"

"SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH!"

This time, Zhaang Ye unleashed eighty-one slashes! His two palms instantly became a solid wall, with no gaps visible at all—only a sheet of brilliant golden light!

This time, a trace of astonishment finally appeared on Red Cliff Celestial Ape's face. At this moment, he finally displayed his hard-forged combat skills. His two fists suddenly transformed into overlapping waves, and endless Innate True Qi flickered between them, its friction creating bursts of dazzling sparks!

"BOOM BOOM BOOM—"

After a series of collisions, Red Cliff Celestial Ape finally took a step back, his fists slowing for a fraction of a second. That slight hesitation was all the opening Zhaang Ye needed. One of his hands suddenly changed from a blade into a claw and viciously grabbed!

"CRACK!"

Zhaang Ye caught one of Red Cliff Celestial Ape's fists squarely. The moment his fist was caught, Red Cliff Celestial Ape sensed immense danger. In his shock, he lashed out with all his limbs, launching a close-range assault on Zhaang Ye. But before his attacks could land, Zhaang Ye acted first. With a shake and a press of his arm!

With the shake, Zhaang Ye neutralized all of Red Cliff Celestial Ape's attacks. And with the press, a terrifying force slammed Red Cliff Celestial Ape down, forcing him to one knee on the arena floor!

"SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH!"

With one arm viciously pinning Red Cliff Celestial Ape, Zhaang Ye's other hand launched an attack like a violent storm. His fists fell like raindrops on Red Cliff Celestial Ape's body, beating him until he let out strange cries and his green fur fell off like fine rain!
