The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2171 Climbing to the top

"The last step..."

The golden-haired giant ape whispered slowly in his heart.

At this moment, its body was crumbling, every inch of its skin told of fatigue, and every bone seemed to be bearing a tremendous pressure, making a "creaking" sound as if it could not bear the heavy burden.

The golden-haired giant ape knew very well that in his current condition, he had already reached his limit by being able to walk here.

It felt that the power of life was quickly slipping away like the sand in an hourglass, and it would not last much longer.

Although it still stood stubbornly, its shaky posture and the sounds made by its bones all announced its weakness, as if it was about to collapse.

It knows very well that if it wants to cross this last step, it must go all out.

So, the golden-haired giant ape took out a few jade bottles from the storage bag with trembling hands, his movements were urgent and difficult.

Without any hesitation, it threw the jade bottle into its mouth, tilted its head back and swallowed it, looking as if it was grasping at its last straw.

The spiritual liquid in the jade bottle poured into the dried-up pool of mana of the golden-haired giant ape like a clear spring.

With the help of this magical spiritual liquid, the magic power in its body, which was almost exhausted, began to recover rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just two breaths, it went crazy and threw more than a dozen jade bottles into its big mouth.

The spiritual fluid continued to flow into the body, and the magic power was also rapidly increasing. The originally dim eyes gradually had a glimmer of light.

After the magic power in his body quickly recovered, a hint of determination suddenly flashed in the eyes of the golden-haired giant ape.

I saw it clasp its huge palms together, and in an instant, a strange energy wave, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, spread out from its body.

This energy carries a primitive and mysterious aura, and the surrounding space seems to tremble slightly under the impact of this force.

Immediately afterwards, two black lumps of flesh the size of heads slowly bulged up under the ribs of the golden-haired giant ape.

The moment the meat ball appeared, it began to wriggle violently, as if something was about to break out of the body.

With two slight "pop" sounds, the flesh mass burst open, and a black arm grew out of it.

These two arms are thick and powerful, covered with a layer of black scales, which flash strangely under the light.

Suddenly, the appearance of the golden-haired giant ape became extremely strange.

The already huge body looked even more ferocious with the appearance of these two arms.

Its hair stood up like steel needles, emitting a chilling aura. At this moment, it looked like a ferocious beast from ancient mythology, with endless majesty and terror.

The golden-haired giant ape stood firmly in place, emitting an indescribable majestic aura.

It slightly narrowed its eyes that were like copper bells, with a focused expression, as if it was carefully combing out the tremendous power in its body that was surging like a raging sea.

The force was so powerful that it seemed to burst its body. Every inch of its skin was filled with this powerful energy, making it overflow with endless strength and passionate fighting spirit.

In an instant, the golden-haired giant ape suddenly raised its head and let out a long roar that shook the earth.

The sound was like rolling thunder crashing down from the sky, cutting through the sky with overwhelming force and reaching the depths of the clouds.

The sound waves reverberated wildly in this space as if they were real, carrying with them a terrifying pressure and shocking force, as if they were going to shock all things in the world under their feet.

Under the impact of the loud noise, the surrounding walls began to tremble violently as if they had encountered a strong earthquake.

The stones that were originally firmly embedded in the wall now loosened and fell one after another, hitting the ground with a "crackling" sound and raising a cloud of dust.

Not far away, an old man was kneeling on the ground, witnessing this thrilling scene.

His face instantly turned as white as paper, extremely ugly.

His eyes were as big as copper bells, full of depression and disbelief, and he couldn't help cursing: "Damn it, you actually have such a powerful back-up plan!"

Obviously, the old man had just clearly heard the golden-haired giant ape's previous angry curse. In his opinion, the golden-haired giant ape was just a spent force.

But he never expected that the opponent would show such terrifying strength at this critical moment, like a blockbuster bomb, instantly shattering his original cognition.

However, at this moment, the golden-haired giant ape was completely immersed in the pleasure and satisfaction brought by his own powerful strength.

The only thing in its mind was the perception of power and the obsession with the goal ahead. It paid no attention to the old man's angry shouts, as if the other party was just an insignificant ant.

It paused for only a moment, then raised its huge foot again, as if carrying a thousand-pound weight, and slowly moved towards the last step, step by step, like an ancient giant beast.

With every step he took, the ground would vibrate violently as if struck by a heavy blow, and cracks would spread out from the soles of his feet, as if the whole world was trembling under these shocking steps.

Seeing the golden-haired giant ape getting closer and closer to the finish line, the old man became anxious, like an ant on a hot pan.

He struggled desperately to get up, his wrinkled face full of anxiety and unwillingness.

He stretched out his hands and tried to grab the golden-haired giant ape's thick and powerful tail, hoping to stop the other party from moving forward.

However, no matter how hard he tried, his hands, which were once flexible and free, seemed to be tightly bound by a mysterious and powerful suction force, as if they were nailed to the ground and could not move at all.

His body twisted in vain, sweat kept rolling down his forehead, but he was unable to break free from this invisible force.

In the end, the old man could only watch the golden-haired giant ape walk farther and farther away, his heart filled with despair and helplessness.

There was endless frustration in his eyes, as if he had lost all hope.

He knew that anyone who reached the top would definitely take two things.

It would be the same even if he reached the summit first. All the words he said before were just to deceive Matthew.

As expected, the golden-haired giant ape successfully climbed the last step.

The moment it stepped onto the stairs, the terrifying gravity that had been following it like a shadow suddenly disappeared without a trace like a dream bubble.

The golden-haired giant ape only felt his body suddenly relax, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off of him.

Then, golden light flashed on its body, and the light flowed on its surface like running water.

After a few breaths, the light gradually faded, and the golden-haired giant ape had turned back into Matthew's appearance.

Matthew stood on the steps, took a long breath, and a gleam of victory flashed in his eyes.
