Adding Friends Can Make Me Stronger - Chapter 71

Chapter 71: Whether I Kill You or Not, I Will Step onto the Path of Supreme Strength!

“My Heavens, what level of power is this exactly?”

The surrounding disciples were completely dumbfounded.

Most of them were only at the Aperture Connecting Realm, so this had completely exceeded their comprehension.

Even Mad Blade and others, who had reached the Sea Cleaving Realm, were the same. Despite reaching the Sea Cleaving Realm, the blade energy they condensed with their true qi was only four or five meters long!

But Meng Changqing?

A full one hundred and fifty meters!

What a terrifying difference!

It was like the difference between heaven and earth!

“How did this guy do it?” Mad Blade couldn’t believe it.

“And his true qi quantity is also outrageously high,” Xiao Zhen added.

He clenched his hands tightly, his eyes filled with shock and a hint of unwillingness.

Both were top-tier geniuses.

But at this moment, they felt a profound sense of distance!

And powerlessness!

This was a gap that they could never catch up to!

If they were to face this sword themselves, just imagining it made them feel suffocated.

As the ice mist slowly dissipated, the situation inside gradually became clear.

The Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla was lying in a huge pit, covered with sword marks and wounds, with thick blood flowing out continuously.

It seemed heavily injured.

But in reality, it wasn’t.

“Why didn’t you kill me?” The Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla murmured softly.

It didn’t stand up but continued to lie down.

That sword just now could definitely have killed it, but in the end, it suddenly disappeared, obviously held back.

“Why should I kill you?” Meng Changqing’s figure flashed and appeared in front of it.

Even after such intense battle, his condition was still very good.

Even his clothes weren’t damaged much.

“Because it’s my fate.”

For some reason, the words of the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla flowed smoothly, unlike its previous fragmented speech.

“Fate?” Meng Changqing raised an eyebrow.

“I’m the whetstone for the disciples of your Tai Xuan Sect. Killing me can prove the path of supreme strength,” the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla said.

Hearing this, Meng Changqing understood.

The Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla might be a threshold.

Killing it could prove that one’s potential far exceeded that of top-tier geniuses and that they had the qualifications to step onto the path of supreme strength.

The so-called supreme strength.

Naturally, it meant becoming a peerless powerhouse.

But killing and winning were two different concepts.

To defeat the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla, one only needed to be slightly stronger than it.

But to kill…

“You are a bloodline demon beast. If I kill you, won’t the sect regret it?” Meng Changqing came to his senses and said casually.

“I am a demon beast. Even if my bloodline is good, they won’t invest resources in me,” the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla said with a hint of bitterness. “In my life, I am destined to only reach the third level, becoming a whetstone.”

Meng Changqing didn’t feel any sympathy for this.

This was the way of racial warfare.

Victors become kings, losers become slaves.

If countless ages ago, it was the human race that failed, then perhaps now he would be the whetstone.

The sect indeed wouldn’t invest resources in demon beasts.

Wouldn’t it be better to use these resources to cultivate their own disciples?

Foreigners always had different hearts.

“To kill, it’s just a formality.

“Whether I kill you or not, I will step onto the path of supreme strength.”

Meng Changqing stood with his hands behind his back.

The breeze blew gently, his black hair lightly dancing, and his eyes seemed to flicker with confidence.

“Your potential is far beyond mine, indeed worthy of becoming such an existence.”

The Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla looked at Meng Changqing.

That dazzling youthful demeanor truly made it envious.

It also wanted to stand tall like this, but fate was so cruel.

“Compared to killing you, I would rather be friends with you.”

Meng Changqing looked at it and smiled slightly.

“Friends?”

There was an obvious look of astonishment on the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla’s face.

For more than twenty years in this world, no one had ever said such words to it.

In the eyes of the human race, it was just a beast of burden.

But this human wanted to be friends with it.

“Yes, you are the strongest demon beast I have ever seen, both in strength and potential, so I want to be friends with you.”

Meng Changqing reached out his hand towards it. “I hope we’ll have the chance to spar again in the future.”

This was the truth.

The battle with the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla had been very beneficial, but he was still not satisfied.

If only they could fight a few more times.

In addition, the main purpose was naturally the attributes on the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla.

Ancient demon ape bloodline.

And the final bloodline talent, the “Demon Ape Divine Power,” which greatly amplified strength.

If he hadn’t cultivated the “Linglong Daluo Tian,” he would have to engage in a fierce battle to defeat it, relying on his massive true qi to drag it to death.

But could demon beast bloodlines be assimilated?

After all, he was a pure human.

Well, he’d ask the system later.

Even if it wasn’t possible, he could still decompose it.

He believed that attributes of this level could definitely yield high-quality items.

Upon hearing this, the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla slightly clenched its hands.

A difficult-to-describe emotion surfaced in its heart.

In its entire demon life, it seemed that it had never received such recognition.

“Human, you spared my life. I owe you a favor. Besides, since you don’t mind, I’m willing to be friends with you.”

The Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla stood up.

It reached out its hand.

Compared to it, Meng Changqing’s hand was naturally very small.

But they still held hands.

Ding!

[Successfully added the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla as a friend!]

[Current Favorability Rating: One Star]

[Acquired Attribute: Bloodline [Great Strength Demon Ape]]

[Triggered Additional Reward: Bloodline Refinement Card *1]

The voice of the system sounded in his mind.

A smile appeared on Meng Changqing’s face immediately.

Not bad, he got the best attribute.

To use bloodline talents, one must first possess the bloodline.

Otherwise, even if he obtained the “Demonic Ape Divine Power,” he probably wouldn’t be able to use it.

In addition, there was an additional reward.

Bloodline Refinement Card.

It was the first time it appeared.

Judging by its name, it should be used specifically for refining bloodlines.

“Judging from your appearance, you should be the Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla, right?”

Withdrawing his mind, Meng Changqing asked knowingly, “My name is Meng Changqing.”

“Yeah.” The Crimson Rampage Golden Gorilla nodded.

A hint of surprise flashed in its eyes.

In fact, demon beast was a large general term, and there were many different types within it.

And it was one of the rare exotic species.

In theory, in the present era, there shouldn’t be many people who could recognize it.

But this human… well… friend, recognized it.

It seemed that his knowledge was also quite profound.

“This name is too long, can I call you Red Gold?” Meng Changqing asked.
