Universe Infinite Canteen

But it was too late to try to stop Boggy now; she had already entered the attack range of the six-armed ancient ape.

Boggy had intended to use the motorbike to ram and block the fierce beast in front of her, but the six-armed ancient ape didn\'t give her the chance. With a single punch, the motorbike was reduced to a pile of parts.

However, aside from the parts, there were no signs of blood or flesh.

Just in the nick of time, Boggy had leaped off the motorbike, narrowly escaping disaster. Her speed and reflexes had already increased by more than 300%.

This allowed her to successfully escape at the very moment danger struck.

Yet she was still within the attack range of the six-armed ancient ape, and this giant beast had six arms at its disposal.

If it launched a full attack, even if Boggy\'s speed were doubled, she would still find it very difficult to escape.

Fortunately, Boggy still had a trump card. Before the ape\'s second punch could fall, she had already activated the huge backpack on her back. As the motor started,

three jets of air were ejected from the backpack, propelling Boggy into the sky. During her ascent, she changed the direction of the jets to dodge another strike before continuing to rise.

Only when she reached a height of 30 meters, did she truly escape from danger.

Moreover, Boggy\'s risky maneuver had bought enough time for the other four members of the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group, allowing them to successfully rendezvous with the Hunting Team.

He Yueji looked at Ma Lu and the others who were hurrying over, and then raised her eyes to the figure in the sky, clearly surprised.

She hadn\'t expected the members of the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group not only to return but also to do so without any casualties.

This made her quite displeased, not only because Ma Lu had outsmarted her again, but also because the roles had been reversed. Although she believed she could complete the mission, it would be difficult to do so without any deaths.

This meant that she had been outdone by the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group once again. However, while He Yueji was petty, she didn\'t forget what was important.

She too saw the sandstorm sweeping in from the distance, aware that they didn\'t have much time left.

She pointed to an open space nearby and shouted up to Boggy in the sky, "Lead the six-armed ancient ape over there!"

On hearing the command, Boggy slightly lowered her flying altitude and once again drew the attention of the six-armed ancient ape, leading it toward the spot where the trap had been set.

The six-armed ancient ape, chasing the prey in the sky, was completely unaware that it had been tricked by cunning humans, or perhaps it was so confident in its own strength that it didn\'t care about any schemes or plots.

But when it arrived at that area, the chains that had been buried in the sand suddenly came to life like venomous snakes, coiling around the ankles of the six-armed giant ape.

The six-armed giant ape roared in anger, trying to reach out and break the thick chains, but the next moment, even more chains flew out from the sand, wrapping around its six arms.

A high voltage electric current then followed, coursing through the chains. The body of the six-armed ancient ape shook like a sieve, and a burnt smell emerged from beneath its thick fur.

"As expected of a Diamond Level Hunting Group," Mai Mai praised, "such impeccable teamwork."

But before she had finished speaking, the six-armed ancient ape raised its head and let out a furious roar. Though still shaking, it had reached out, grabbed a chain, and began tearing at it.

The iron links, as thick as three fingers, were forcefully snapped by its brute strength.

And once that arm was free, it continued to tear at the other chains. Soon, the second and third chains also snapped.

But by that time, other hunters had already rushed up, unleashing their psychic powers and attacking the six-armed ancient ape.

Ma Lu saw a young hunter charging at the forefront with two mechanical curved blades and hastily warned him, "Be careful!"

But before Ma Lu could finish speaking, the fist of the six-armed ancient ape had already fallen, and a mist of blood exploded.

Ma Lu unconsciously took half a step back.

And it wasn\'t just that young hunter—many close-combat hunters met the same fate. The six-armed ancient ape kept swinging its arms, smashing any hunter who came close, like someone playing whack-a-mole!

The scene was too gory, causing the remaining people to halt in their tracks.

What was worse, less than half of the chains remained on the six-armed ancient ape.

As the situation seemed to spiral out of control, He Yueji, as the commander, could no longer sit idly by and finally decided to take action.

But this time, she didn\'t use the Flying Sickle at her waist. Instead, she walked step by step towards the six-armed ancient ape while rapidly chanting a spell.

In her eyes emerged a strange green glow.

Ma Lu\'s gaze was involuntarily drawn to the radiance, and his body stiffened in response. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Mai Mai noticed his abnormality and reached out to block him.

"Don\'t look into her eyes!"

"Huh?"

"He Yueji\'s psychic power is Petrifying Gaze; it\'s a very powerful and rare Beast-Series Psychic Ability," explained Mai Mai. "It can petrify any living creature that locks eyes with her."

By then, Ma Lu had recovered to normal, realizing that as long as he didn\'t look directly into He Yueji\'s eyes continuously, he wouldn\'t be affected by her power.

But there was no denying it was an extremely powerful ability.

At that moment, He Yueji had already stepped into the Six-armed Ancient Ape\'s attack range. However, she didn\'t meet the same fate as the other hunters who had been reduced to a pile of flesh and blood before.

It wasn\'t due to a sudden act of mercy from the Six-armed Ancient Ape that spared her; actually, its fist was already suspended above He Yueji\'s head but just couldn\'t seem to land.

It wasn\'t just that fist. All of its other five arms, including its two legs and its huge body, seemed to be held in place by some invisible force, preventing it from even doing something as simple as blinking.

The other hunters, seeing this, were overjoyed and rushed forward once more.

Various attacks rained down on the Six-armed Ancient Ape like a storm, and under the powerful psychic ability of He Yueji, it had become essentially a live target.

Even with the beast\'s incredibly resilient physique, taking so many hits in rapid succession had injured it severely.

And its bleeding further stimulated the surrounding hunters, making them all the more excited. However, as a bystander, Ma Lu noticed the ball of the Six-armed Giant Ape\'s eye seemed to move slightly.

At the same time, He Yueji\'s body wobbled, but she quickly steadied herself and even took a half step forward.

Mai Mai also noticed something and, lowering his voice, said, "This is bad. He Yueji can\'t hold on much longer."

But He Yueji\'s resilience exceeded both their expectations. Despite her pettiness, her willpower was extraordinarily strong.

She was not only ruthless to others but just as ruthless to herself.

Even though blood had already started seeping from her eyes and nostrils, she stood firm, not retreating a single step.

However, a person\'s psychic power ultimately has its limits.

Even the strongest will couldn\'t change that fact. Thus, although the Six-armed Ancient Ape was badly wounded, its arms broken and one leg cut to the bone, it gradually regained its mobility.

The fist hanging over He Yueji\'s head also began to fall slowly, intent on crushing the most despised enemy before it.

Yet even at this stage, He Yueji had no intention of retreating.

Aside from being blinded by rage, she also saw an approaching sandstorm, almost on top of them.

She must, as quickly as possible, take down the giant beast before her!

He Yueji made a quick judgment in her mind, yet she overestimated her endurance.

The fact that she had held on until now was already a miracle, nearly exhausting the last bit of psychic power left in her body, but she ultimately couldn\'t maintain her power\'s effect any longer.

However, in the nick of time, just before the descending fist could crush her, a lanky hunter with a tattoo-covered face lunged forward and saved her life.

The other hunters weren\'t so lucky, though. The Six-armed Ancient Ape, with eyes blood-red and deep bone-exposing wounds all over its body, was thoroughly enraged.

Despite being severely injured, it showed no intention of fleeing, instead starting to wreak havoc!

Swinging its remaining arms, it hammered wildly!

Seeing the turn of events, Mai Mai joined the battle, using the batteries on four motorcycles to create an electric field.

Even though the Six-armed Ancient Ape shuddered under the electricity, as soon as the electric field\'s duration ended, it regained its mobility once again.

This beast\'s vitality was unbelievably tenacious.

After suffering through so many rounds of attacks, it still wasn\'t dead, but the severe injuries did slow its movements a bit.

As Ma Lu saw Boggy and Seta charge forward again, the sandstorm arrived before he could clearly see the ensuing battle.

The sweeping winds carrying endless sands instantly engulfed everyone, including the terrifying ancient ape.

The sandstorm continued forward, also engulfing the approaching horde of Corpse Puppets.
