Qi Xianqing naturally knew that if she were to confront the White Ape head-on, while victory wasn't impossible, it could lead to both sides suffering great losses.
Yan Jue had mentioned this idea to her a long time ago.
Thus, Qi Xianqing didn't intend to engage in a direct confrontation with the White Ape this time.
Before leaving the mountains, her Master had spoken to her about the Sect Leader's uncle, who was willing to protect her and Yan Jue, and that she could carry the Sect Leader's soul as a powerful trump card.
The White Ape, despite its arrogance, was merely taking advantage of their lower cultivation.
But the White Ape had no idea what else she was carrying with her.
Mu Zhongzi was summoned by Qi Xianqing, floating dazedly on the Bodhi leaf.
Mu Zhongzi had never acted as a battle soul before, and was momentarily caught off guard.
Suddenly, a gust of wind rushed forward.
Then Mu Zhongzi saw a muscular White Ape pouncing toward him. Its iron-like fist nearly shattered his soul.
Qi Xianqing left behind the words, "Sect Leader's uncle, please," and quickly retreated.
Mu Zhongzi's face darkened as he immediately understood what had happened.
This was his first battle since leaving the Five Dragon Secret Realm.
Even when he had been the Sect Leader, actual combat was rare.
The position of Sect Leader was one of honor and worship; he hadn't fought in years.
The White Ape's fist, infused with immense force, was narrowly avoided by the Sect Leader. Before long, another punch came crashing down.
Though the White Ape was only a spiritual beast, it could sense the dangerous aura coming from Mu Zhongzi's soul.
So, it became even more ruthless.
Mu Zhongzi suddenly soared into the air, glaring angrily. He formed a seal and shouted, "The body has golden light, illuminating my form."
This was the Immortal Technique of the Golden Body, a technique that a powerful cultivator of the Seventh Realm could master.
Once the Golden Body was activated, golden light would surround the body, making both soul and physical form impenetrable, impervious to blades and spears.
In an instant, Mu Zhongzi's previously dark soul radiated golden light. When the White Ape's fist struck him, it felt like smashing into a stone. The White Ape's entire body shook, and blood poured from its fingertips.
Not far away, Qi Xianqing stood on a large tree, silently watching.
The Seventh Realm was a significant threshold for human cultivators. Breaking through it was incredibly difficult.
Thus, every battle fought by a cultivator of the Seventh Realm was something worth learning from.
Qi Xianqing's position was safe, hidden from the White Ape's notice, while allowing her to observe everything clearly.
She knew that Mu Zhongzi, having reached the position of Sect Leader, would never be defeated by a mere White Ape.
The White Ape's blood seeped from its hands, but it paid no attention to its injuries. It moved like a whirlwind, swiftly striking again.
In terms of speed, Mu Zhongzi's soul couldn't compare to that of a spiritual beast like the White Ape, and Yan Jue couldn't help but feel a bit nervous for him.
