Chapter 4: The Battle of the Chiefs

  With a wave of his arm, the leader of the apes hunched over, revealing his slightly yellowed fangs, and let out a loud roar as he pounced on Chen Xiang.

  Its body shape moved, completely bursting out the original power that humans should have, stirring up a whistling wind sound, as if a large pendulum, heavily smashing forward, looking at that momentum, even if it was a small tree being hit, it would probably be directly broken open.

  "Great job!"

  With a slight movement, Chen Xuan faced the leader's charging body with an unyielding stance, taking only a small step back. He suddenly raised his arm, forming a bell shape, and with the appearance of a monk striking a bell, he unleashed his strength. As his muscles tensed, he smashed forward head-on.

  When his internal energy cultivation was successful and his physical strength burst forth, the essence of the fist techniques that Chen Xu had practiced in his past life naturally emerged again, and he completely grasped them once more. Moreover, they were even more profound than before, after all, in his previous life, he didn't have internal energy as a foundation, but this life was different.

  In this case, the ape leader's pounce was fierce, but it couldn't do anything to Chen Xu. In his eyes, this move was full of flaws and was a beastly behavior.

  Even in the past, the leader of this giant ape-like appearance would not pose any threat to Chen Xu, let alone now.

  At this time, his strength had already far surpassed that of the leader. The essence of some martial arts from his previous life was once again fully grasped. The leader's seemingly ferocious and abnormal pounce now seemed somewhat laughable.

  With a slight movement of his feet, Chen Xu dodged the ape leader's seemingly unbeatable pounce.

  He immediately swung his arms down with a speed that the leader of the apes couldn't react to, and directly smashed his fists onto the ape leader's back.

  "Peng!"

  A dull thud that made one's teeth ache sounded, and before the ape leader's tightly clenched fist reached the ground where Chen Xu was standing, his body was like an autumn leaf in the wind, struck instantly and sent flying sideways.

  Under Chen Xu's blow, the ape leader's massive body seemed to have no weight at all, and was directly smashed out of several meters away, without any resistance.

  This move was not an unnamed technique, but rather the Golden Bell Horizontal Strike from the Eagle Claw Skill, taking the momentum of a soaring eagle swooping down on a rabbit, and following the focus of a monk striking a bell.

  It was at this moment that the inch of Jin Zhong's horizontal strike burst out, and under the drive of internal force, the powerful force exerted was somewhat beyond Chen Xuan's imagination.

  With just this blow, the ape leader's body of over 200 kilograms was directly knocked to the ground, rolling around in circles several times. He didn't even have the strength to get up again. All he could do was wail on the ground, trying to distract himself from the pain he felt all over his body.

  On the ground in front of where the leader of the apes had fallen, it was also thoroughly stained with blood. Originally, just this one blow, the power of Chen Xu's inch-force erupting from his hand, directly smashed the leader of the apes to spit out three liters of blood. It can be said that this strike completely deprived the leader of the apes of its fighting strength.

  This is also the reason why the Ape-Men have a strong innate defensive power, and before evolving into fragile humans, they still maintain the structure of apes. Therefore, apart from feeling pain to the bone, there are no other feelings. Otherwise, if it were a normal human being, this would be enough to completely shatter their thoracic vertebrae, or even thoroughly beat them through!

  At this moment, even Chen Xu, who had struck out with this move, was somewhat stunned, clearly not having expected that under the enhancement of his inner energy, this originally ordinary technique would have such great destructive power.

  Feeling the mighty power contained in his fist, Chen Xu couldn't help but take a deep breath. Until now, he had finally formed an intuitive concept in his mind - that is, at this moment, he was fundamentally different from before. This inner strength would be his capital for establishing himself in the future.

  After a moment, the howling sound of the leader of the apes finally stopped, and at this time, the eyes of the apes looking at Chen Xu were filled with reverence. At this moment, Chen Xu undoubtedly became the new leader, took over the leadership baton, and had the qualification to lead them in hunting.

  After a while, the poor ape leader was finally able to prop himself up from the ground, but because he was seriously injured, it seemed that he would not be able to stand for some time.

  The ape leader looked pitifully at the others, constantly making panting sounds with his mouth. However, when faced with the ape leader's plea for help, the surrounding apes showed a hesitant expression on their faces, unsure whether to step forward and offer a helping hand.

  All the apes looked at Chen Xu with caution, waiting for the decision of this new leader, which was the existence of majesty.

  After going through this in his mind, Chen Xu's eyes showed a hint of excitement, and he slightly waved his hand to signal. After calming down the excitement in his heart, he imitated the pronunciation of the apes, and for the first time, gave orders to these apes, signaling them to lift up their old leader.

  Upon hearing this somewhat impure Ape language, the apes finally let out a long breath and with some relief pulled up their former leader who had fallen to the ground.

  At this time, in their immature thinking, they also knew that the new leader in front of them was more approachable. From this action, they saw that this newly emerged leader did not intend to kill everyone, but instead left a way out for the old leader with mercy. This is actually quite common in primitive tribes, but there are no exceptions.

  At present, in the eyes of the masses, this new leader seems to possess all the qualities of a Stone Age ape leader: mysterious, powerful, and of course, that hint of comforting tolerance!

  The leader of the apes, with the support of several women, barely managed to prop himself up and stand upright. After standing up straight, he looked at Chen Xu, seemingly thinking about something.

  But soon he had other moves.

  He simply brushed aside the supporting hands of several women, struggled to straighten his body, and with great difficulty raised his arm to feel around his neck, his eyes narrowing slightly, an air of sanctity rarely seen in his expression.

  At this moment, Chen Xu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, lifted his arm to wipe his eyes, and seemed to see the priest who was praying in the church of his previous life.

  He actually read a kind of piety in the face of this ape leader, and Chen Xu's heart suddenly jumped, but he was somewhat surprised!

  After a moment, the leader of the apes seemed to have finally found what he was looking for. With a sudden jerk of his arm, there was a loud cracking sound, and in his hand appeared a length of unfamiliar chain.

  Yes, Chen Xu was right, it was indeed a metal chain!

  When he looked again, the leader of the apes had lowered his arm, and as the chain moved, he actually took out a glittering golden object from the thick hair on his chest.

  This thing was hung entirely on the chain, and at this time, because of being suddenly shaken, it began to tremble constantly, facing the sunlight outside, as if a living being, swinging endless noble breath, making the face of the ape leader a golden color. At first glance, it seemed like a golden monkey standing upright, no longer with the backwardness and barbarism of the Stone Age, but filled with a sacred color.

  Chen Xu suddenly looked up and felt his brain buzzing, his heart skipping a violent beat!

  At this moment, he was really shocked and confused. In his eyes, there was only the object suspended in mid-air, constantly swinging up and down like a pendulum. Everything else had disappeared, including even the era he was currently living in. It was as if he had returned to his original world once again.

  The astonishment was so great that it was even more intense than when he suddenly crossed into this unreliable world, to the point where for a moment, he began to doubt whether everything he had experienced was real, wondering if this was just a movie shoot or an extremely realistic illusion.

  But before long, the cool and clear true energy flowing within his body clearly told Chen Xu that all of this was real, actually happening around him.

  This is not a fantasy, if it were, it would be a fantasy on the same level as reality, and can be treated as real, at least when he crossed over, humans didn't have this technology.

  He swallowed his saliva, and slightly calmed the shock in his heart. Chen Xu carefully wiped his eyes, only to discover that what the leader of the apes was respectfully holding was so familiar. In his past life, he had seen this thing countless times on TV and movies, and even dreamed of lying on it one day to sleep.

  It's even more from the beautifully decorated storefronts, admiring the luxurious appearance of things, but until that unexpected moment, this dream was just a dream and never came true!
