Reincarnated as a Ginkgo Tree: I Create an Eternal Divine Kingdom - Chapter 155

“Demon monkey!”

“How dare you behave so insolently!”

The members of the Sect of the Other Shore were all furious.

The golden-furred monkey’s words were outrageously arrogant, showing complete disregard for the Sect of the Other Shore and the Misty Forbidden Zone.

“Hahaha, even if I am insolent, what can you do about it?” The golden-furred monkey laughed loudly.

It stomped its foot, causing the ground to crack, a fissure more than a zhang wide extending right in front of Ruan Huian.

“If you don’t agree, I will destroy you all today.”

As it spoke, the monkey’s gaze suddenly shifted to the ruler of the Luo Hu Kingdom.

The ruler and his ministers felt a shiver of unease, sensing something ominous.

In the next moment, the golden-furred monkey leapt toward the ruler of the Luo Hu Kingdom.

“Demon monkey, don’t harm His Majesty!”

The ministers tried to intervene.

But the golden-furred monkey charged through them, sending the ministers flying.

In a flash, it was in front of the ruler, grabbing him by his collar.

With a sly grin, it looked at Ruan Huian and said, “If you don’t acknowledge me as the sect leader, I’ll start by tearing his head off.”

Ruan Huian’s expression changed.

At that moment…

A faint mist appeared in the void.

The sight of the mist instantly calmed Ruan Huian’s previously panicked heart.

The golden-furred monkey, with its heightened senses, immediately sensed something was off.

“What presence lurks here, sneaking around?”

It glared at the mist.

It sensed that the mist contained an oppressive spiritual presence.

As it spoke, the mist grew denser.

Moments later, the mist enveloped the entire area.

Within the mist, a pair of pale eyes formed, resembling the sun and moon hanging in the sky.

“Greetings to Lord Divine Tree.”

Ruan Huian bowed slightly.

The other members of the Sect of the Other Shore quickly reacted: “We pay respects to Lord Divine Tree!”

The people of the Luo Hu Kingdom were initially stunned, but soon their faces lit up with joy as if they had seen their savior.

The Divine Tree of the Sect of the Other Shore was none other than the one who ruled over the Ancient Wilderness Mountains and held dominion over the Great Xia Empire—the Misty Lord!

“Greetings to the Misty Lord!”

They shouted excitedly.

The pale eyes gazed down at the golden-furred monkey, and a light chuckle echoed, “Monkey, do you wish to become the leader of the Sect of the Other Shore?”

“And you are the so-called Misty Lord?”

The golden-furred monkey was visibly displeased.

It, too, was a ruler of a forbidden zone. Why should this Misty Lord look down on it?

It believed they should be equals, or perhaps even that it should be superior.

“Indeed, many beings call me the Misty Lord,” Su Mu said.

He found the situation amusing. He hadn’t expected to encounter such a bold monkey.

The golden-furred monkey’s stats were incredibly strong:

[Species: Golden-Furred Monkey]

[Height: 6 feet]

[Lifespan: 11,000 years]

[Rank: Fourth-tier, Supreme Grade]

[Abilities: Rahu Bloodline, Indestructible Golden Body]

This was the most limited in abilities Su Mu had seen for a fourth-tier being, possessing only two.

Yet, with just these two abilities, the monkey managed to rampage and become a ruler of a forbidden zone.

Its second ability, the Rahu Bloodline, seemed unusable.

This meant the monkey relied entirely on its “Indestructible Golden Body.”

With just one ability, it had become fearless and unruly.

This showed just how powerful the ability was.

It was likely that the strength of this ability made the monkey uninterested in acquiring other skills.

“It seems that this Rahu Bloodline gives it the Indestructible Golden Body,” Su Mu pondered.

In ancient myths, “Rahu” was said to represent chaos.

He wasn’t sure what kind of entity Rahu was in this world.

However, all things could be glimpsed in small parts.

Simply possessing Rahu’s bloodline granted the golden-furred monkey an indestructible body, suggesting Rahu was an incredibly formidable being.

Ordinarily, if a creature was this powerful and defiant, Su Mu would have chosen to eliminate it.

But this golden-furred monkey had such a unique bloodline and abilities.

It was likely a one-of-a-kind creature in the world.

Such an entity would be too precious to destroy.

If he could tame it, it could become a formidable general for the Misty Forbidden Zone.

“You and I are both rulers of forbidden zones. I was born in the Southern Desolation, so this should be my territory,” the golden-furred monkey declared. “If you and your Mist Army leave, I will not pursue the matter.”

“You want me to leave?”

Su Mu smiled calmly. “All you need to do is walk out of this Luo Hu Kingdom’s palace, and I and the Mist Army will withdraw from the Southern Desolation.”

“Really?”

The golden-furred monkey asked, “Leaving this palace is easy. You’re not playing tricks, are you?”

“The world shall bear witness; I do not lie.”

Su Mu replied.

“Good.”

The golden-furred monkey laughed, “It seems the Misty Lord knows what’s good for him.”

To the monkey, the Misty Lord’s words sounded like an agreement to withdraw from the Southern Desolation, thus posing a simple challenge.

It moved to fly out of the palace.

But it quickly realized something was wrong.

With its speed, it should have left the palace within a few breaths.

However, no matter how far it flew, it couldn’t seem to exit the area.

Su Mu remained calm.

He had deployed his tenth-tier mist power and his ninth-tier Phantom Snow Eyes.

Combined with his spiritual power, comparable to a sixth tier being, the entire Luo Hu Kingdom palace was now shrouded in mist, forming a misty illusion.

Even if the golden-furred monkey reached the fifth tier, it would not be able to escape this place.

Indeed, no matter what the monkey tried, it couldn’t leave the palace.

It quickly lost patience, becoming enraged, and began attacking the people of the Luo Hu Kingdom and the Sect of the Other Shore.

In an instant, it grabbed the neck of the ruler of the Luo Hu Kingdom and twisted it, breaking it.

Yet, the ruler’s body dissolved into mist and vanished.

Clearly, this ruler was also an illusion.

The onlookers were amazed.

What they saw was the golden-furred monkey flying chaotically, randomly striking out at empty air.

Despite its efforts, it never left the palace, always circling within its confines.

The onlookers were not foolish.

They quickly realized this was undoubtedly the work of the Misty Lord.

Seeing such a terrifying creature being toyed with by the Misty Lord only deepened their reverence and fear.

In their fear, they also realized that the Misty Lord was now their protector, filling them with excitement.

The golden-furred monkey wasn’t foolish either.

It quickly realized it had fallen into an illusion.

So, it stopped and shouted, “This doesn’t count! You’re using illusions to trick me. What kind of ability is that?”

“What do you propose?”

A calm voice echoed in the void.

“Dispel the mist and fight me head-on.”

The golden-furred monkey said, “Only if you defeat me openly will I submit to you.”

“As you wish.”

The mist quickly dissipated.

“Hahaha.”

The golden-furred monkey laughed, “Misty Lord, I admit you’re strong, but I won’t play with you anymore. I’m leaving.”

It was clear it was planning a trick.

The illusion technique showed that the Misty Lord was indeed not easy to deal with.

While laughing, the golden-furred monkey quickly flew away.

It intended to leave and find another place to reign; there was no need to confront the Misty Lord head-on.

Fortunately, the Misty Lord had fallen for its trick and truly dispelled the mist; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been able to escape.

Now, with the mist gone, it didn’t believe the Misty Lord could still stop it.

“Oh no!”

The people of the Luo Hu Kingdom were alarmed.

If the demon monkey escaped, it could return at any time.

And they couldn’t always rely on the Misty Lord to save them.

This would mean endless trouble for the Luo Hu Kingdom.

In the blink of an eye, the golden-furred monkey had left the palace, fleeing toward the outskirts of the Luo Hu capital.

Suddenly…

A ginkgo tree branch descended from the sky.

Crack!

The branch moved as fast as lightning.

Even the golden-furred monkey couldn’t avoid it and was struck directly.

The power of the ginkgo branch was terrifying.

The golden-furred monkey, which had been invincible against the hundred thousand troops, was now…

Its Iron Armor was immediately shattered by the strike.

The people of the Iron Mountain Villa were dumbfounded.

This armor was a treasure passed down through their ancestors, yet it was cracked in a single strike by the ginkgo branch.
