The Blood Monkey Clan is naturally endowed with the Blood Monkey Martial Soul. This destiny means they cannot acquire other species' Martial Souls like Human Warriors do, through absorption, fusion, and refining.
The Human Clan can possess one or several Martial Souls.
The innate abilities of the Blood Monkey Clan are usually exclusive to them. If a Human Warrior desires to master the Blood Monkey Martial Soul, they must meet many stringent requirements.
Just as he was about to leave, Duan Gujin suddenly asked, "Monkey, you aren't planning on giving this Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk to your master, are you?"
The monkey gave Duan Gujin a glance and wrote on the ground: "You don't need to worry about him. Though he is seriously injured, he is hiding somewhere even I cannot find! I need this Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk for myself!"
To prove his point, the monkey swallowed the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk that Duan Gujin had given him.
"Oh!"
Duan Gujin nodded slightly, indicating his belief in the monkey's words.
However, his mind began to race, pondering how much truth was in the monkey's words.
A moment later, he tentatively asked again, "Monkey, don't you really need to take care of your master?"
He remembered Tie Yi telling him about the monkey's midnight disappearances, believing it very likely that the monkey was sneaking off to take care of its master.
"Do you think you can fool me just like that?"
Duan Gujin looked at the monkey and thought to himself.
However, he did not voice his thoughts or let his facial expressions betray his suspicions.
On the ground, the monkey wrote: "All of this is fate, you need not intervene too much, and if you don't believe, don't ask too many questions."
Fate?
Duan Gujin touched his nose. The word seemed simple enough.
Yet for some reason, a thought dashed through his mind; he felt these words might encompass the grand laws of the universe.
"Could it be implying that this is Zhao Wuji's fate, so there's no need to worry about him?"
Duan Gujin pondered and believed that the monkey likely didn't want to say too much to avoid revealing Zhao Wuji's whereabouts.
Understanding this perspective, Duan Gujin found it reasonable; he knew Zhao Wuji had only recently been attacked by a Divine Being from the Divine World, who might now be severely injured or hiding.
If Zhao Wuji were injured, the monkey would spare no effort to search for various Spiritual Medicines to save him, and the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk is the best among them.
However, the monkey didn't need the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk for anyone else; it only needed some for itself.
Therefore, Duan Gujin dismissed his initial suspicions, concluding that Zhao Wuji probably wasn't heavily injured and might just be hiding.
Since Zhao Wuji wasn't heavily injured, just hiding, he naturally wouldn't want the monkey or anyone else to find him.
"I see, I see!"
Duan Gujin came to a realization.
Given what the monkey said, Duan Gujin let the monkey take away a bottle of the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk.
For him, that one bottle was just one ten-thousandth of the Divine Milk he possessed.
After bidding farewell to the monkey, Duan Gujin arrived at a high mountain adjacent to the Hundred Saints Mountain.
He had previously taken on an exceedingly difficult master's task, which he was intending to complete there today.
On his way, he saw no signs of anyone following him.
Thus, he was confident that he hadn't raised Wu Wencai's suspicions.
"Today, I will practice the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps and the Fusion Heart Method here!"
Duan Gujin thought to himself, then first consumed the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk, restoring his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power to their peaks.
Afterward, he took a map from his storage ring and examined it carefully, searching for the Eight-Pattern Poison Spider, the target of his mission.
"The map states there are many demons here at the Martial Master Realm!"
Duan Gujin, eager to test, wanted to try out the Fusion Heart Method he had recently developed on slaying these demons to see what effect it might have.
And now that he had mastered the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps, he wanted to know to what extent his combat power could be enhanced if he fused it with the Fusion Heart Method.
He was very eager to completely merge the Fusion Heart Method with the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps, creating a new set of fighting techniques unique to himself.
For any martial artist, attack speed is crucial.
In the world of martial arts, only speed is invincible.
As long as the attack is swift enough, it can often catch the opponent off guard.
In this way, one can gain a stable upper hand.
If indeed one's strength is inferior to others, then fleeing a thousand miles away is the best strategy.
When clashing with an enemy, sometimes it's necessary to learn to avoid the opponent's edge and not just stubbornly collide head-on.
Duan Gujin planned to use the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps for both attacking and fleeing, bringing its function to the utmost limit.
He released his Divine Sense, and quickly detected a demon beast in the Sixth Layer of Martial Master, coiled on a patch of grass ahead.
After observing for a while, Duan Gujin recognized it as a Spotted Tiger Demon Beast.
Duan Gujin took a deep breath, releasing his Divine Sense to ensure he was several kilometers away from the Spotted Tiger Demon Beast, he circulated his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power, and moments later, ripples appeared under his feet.
He began to perform the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps.
He inhaled deeply and then his body started stepping forward one step at a time towards the ground ahead.
The Heavenly Demon Nine Steps involved the power of rules.
The Heavenly Demon Nine Steps mastered by Duan Gujin were to take nine steps and create a spatial rift that allowed a martial artist to enter it and teleport one kilometer away.
With each step, Duan Gujin vividly sensed a spatial rift appearing in front of him.
The spatial rift grew larger as he advanced.
After taking nine steps, his body plunged directly into that rift.
In almost the blink of an eye, he reappeared approximately one kilometer away.
He continued to perform the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps towards the void ahead without stopping.
He wanted to know what his limit would be.
At this time, the Primordial Power and Spiritual Power inside his body were still in a burning phase, and he felt as if he was in a furnace, experiencing an indescribable discomfort.
One step, two steps, three steps, four steps...
Quickly, he took the ninth step into the void ahead.
He saw another spatial rift appear in front of him, and his body dived into it.
Almost in the next moment, his body appeared again about one kilometer away.
After executing the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps twice in succession, he felt his whole body boiling like water, feeling that if he persisted, his body might not withstand it, and eventually, it might explode.
"I'm going to perform the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps a third time!"
Duan Gujin realized that half of his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power had been consumed, and he estimated that he could only perform the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps one last time.
Without hesitation, he decisively performed the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps for the third time.
This time, after performing the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps for the third time, he was less than five hundred meters away from the Spotted Tiger Demon Beast.
With nearly eighty percent of his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power consumed, the Spotted Tiger Demon Beast, seeing Duan Gujin rushing towards it, roared and flashed, turning into a streak of light, charging towards Duan Gujin.
"Think you can take advantage of me? No way!"
Duan Gujin sneered inwardly, quickly taking out a bottle of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk from his storage ring.
He drank a drop of the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk, and while quickly recovering his depleted Primordial Power and Spiritual Power, he waited for the Spotted Tiger Demon Beast to charge at him.
In the eyes of others, his current approach was purely suicidal.
However, Duan Gujin liked to put himself in such extremely dangerous situations.
He hoped to use these dire circumstances to squeeze out his potential and temper his ability to face battles without fear.
