What a Monstrous Genius, Killing the Black-Armored Evil Ape in One Move!

The Black-armored Evil Ape was extremely fast. Its snake body slithered, leaving afterimages in the air. Lin Bai brandished his sword to block it.

Clang!

The impact was so strong that even his thumb and forefinger felt as if they were about to be split open. The sword in his hand almost fell off.

His face was pale, but he did not notice that the Black-armored Evil Ape's tail was launching a sneak attack from behind at lightning speed. The other disciples turned pale with fright and hurriedly warned, "Senior Brother Lin, be careful!"

Lin Bai sensed the strong wind behind him and rolled to the side. He narrowly avoided it, but because of that, he exposed his weakest point. The Black-armored Evil Ape seemed to have been waiting for this moment.

Its sharp claws and teeth flashed with a cold light. It was as if it could split the air in half as it clawed at his head.

If he was caught by the evil ape, his entire skull would probably be overturned. The shadow of death enveloped Lin Bai's head. Everyone wanted to stop it, but they were powerless.

There was a huge disparity in strength. Under the attack of the Black-armored Evil Ape, they did not have any strength to retaliate. Some of the timid female disciples had already moved their gazes away, unable to bear to see Lin Bai's head being dislocated.

Just as they were speaking, a male voice suddenly sounded, "So you're here."

Not knowing if it was an illusion, the originally aggressive Black-armored Evil Ape's body actually stiffened. Following that, its eyes became even redder. It looked as if it had been stimulated by something.

However, before it could react, a sword fell from the sky, like a celestial being from outer space. It brought with it a crushing force. In an instant, the wind and clouds surged, and the sky and earth changed color. A powerful spiritual power descended, and the force was so strong that they almost could not open their eyes.

Boom!

With a loud sound, the divine sword hit the middle of the evil ape's snake body and nailed it firmly to the ground. The heavy tail thrashed about and raised a huge amount of dust.

However, no matter how much it struggled and resisted, it could not escape the restrictions of the divine sword. A huge pressure spread out in all directions, and everyone was even pushed dozens of meters away by the shockwave.

At this moment, even their knees went weak, not to mention the Black-armored Evil Ape. This Sword Qi was too overbearing, and wherever it passed, it was like a king patrolling his territory. No one dared to be arrogant.

Only one person was not affected. Only then did everyone realize that he had appeared here at some point in time. The man's eyes were as calm as an ancient well. The divine sword flew back to his hand as if it was summoned.

At the same time, there was a round golden core in his hand. Green spots were entrenched on the surface of the golden core. Apparently, it also contained part of the poison. It was the Black-armored Evil Ape's inner core.

A man and a sword, like a banished Immortal. He glanced at Lin Bai and the others, and they also imprinted him deeply in their hearts.

He was Gu Xi, who had come to kill the Red-eyed Demon Tiger.

Lin Bai was immediately grateful, "Thank you for saving us, fellow Daoist."

Gu Xi said indifferently, "No worries."

Gu Xi had originally wanted to track the Red-eyed Demon Tiger, but he did not expect to bump into the Black-armored Evil Ape, so he wanted to practice first. Who would have thought that the Black-armored Evil Ape was no match for him and actually ran away?

Gu Xi lost track of it and decided to give up. He did not expect to bump into it here.

By accident, he also saved the lives of Lin Bai and the others.

Everyone survived the disaster. Thinking of the wound on the tip of the Black-armored Evil Ape's tail, they finally knew who had caused it.

The man in front of them looked young, but his cultivation was actually so high. He was able to subdue the Black-armored Evil Ape that had just entered the Golden Core stage with one move. One could imagine how powerful he was.

Everyone was in awe. They even guessed that he was a disciple of an extremely powerful force or sect.

Lin Bai was even more cautious, afraid of offending Gu Xi. "May I ask which sect you are from?"

Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped when he clearly saw Gu Xi's clothes. He thought that he had been poisoned by the Black-armored Evil Ape and was hallucinating.

If he was not mistaken, was this not the clothes of their sect? Also, it was the kind that was worn by non-disciples.

The others had obviously noticed this as well, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.

Someone could not keep his cool and said in shock, "You're from our sect?!"

Gu Xi nodded and did not feel embarrassed to admit it.

Lin Bai tried hard to recall in his mind, but it seemed that he had never seen this person before in the sect.

After all, Gu Xi was not even an outer sect disciple. He was always a useless person and had no chance to interact with these personal disciples. How could Lin Bai and the others have seen him before?

"He's actually from our sect. Do you have any impression of him?"

"No. Logically speaking, since he's so powerful, he should have made a name for himself in the sect a long time ago. Why haven't I heard of this person before?"

Everyone looked at each other in dismay. After talking for a while, no one knew Gu Xi or met him. It was simply unbelievable. However, Gu Xi did not need to lie to them.

Lin Bai swallowed his saliva and said with an embarrassed expression, "Are you wearing the wrong clothes?"

Gu Xi shook her head, "No, I am still a disciple who has not entered the sect. It is normal for you to not notice me."

A disciple who had not entered the sect was able to instantly kill a Golden Core Black-armored Evil Ape?!

"What kind of joke is this? With your strength, how can you be a disciple who hasn't entered the sect?"

Some of the disciples thought that Gu Xi was joking with them. Seeing Gu Xi's expressionless face, they swallowed their laughter.

Was it because their strength was too weak, or was it because the threshold of the sect was so high? For a moment, everyone had different expressions. It could be said that it was extremely strange.

On the way back, Gu Xi walked at the front while Lin Bai and the others followed behind. It was not that they were deliberately trying to ostracize and isolate him. After all, Gu Xi was such a strong person, and they would not want to offend him.

It was because Gu Xi had shocked them so much that they were in a daze. Even when they returned to the sect, they had not recovered from the shock.
