Chapter 5746 Borrowed Blade
- A sudden respect stirred in Jared's chest for the lumbering black-furred giant ape. The creature, so clumsy at first glance, had somehow sniffed out this hidden basin and the clump of Blood Ganoderma pulsing crimson at its heart. He swung off the ape's broad back, boots skidding across moss-slick stone, and strode toward the living jewels, intent on harvesting the medicine his body so desperately craved.
- A roar burst through the humid air—raw, earthquake-loud, and thick with primordial hate—rolling across the basin like thunder ripped from a cracked celestial drum.
- The sound detonated from the far side of the valley, deep within a wall of tangled forest. A second giant ape exploded into view, its fur a sinister dark gold, trees shattering to toothpicks as the monster barreled forward like a moving mountain.
