Chapter Twenty-Six: Mutation
The gloomy man's bland words exuded a strong smell of blood, and the team members were suffocated in their breath, and they all looked at the strong man with embarrassed eyes.
The strong man's brows furrowed, and the hand wiping the giant sword stopped: "I know that your operation is secretive this time, but do you want to kill everyone who passes by and sees this snow-capped white tiger? Isn't that telling others that there is a problem with this team? Besides, if you and I don't make a move, who can kill that little brother." ”
The gloomy man, silent for a while, seemed to weigh the pros and cons, and finally gave up, and the team members breathed a sigh of relief. Only Dahan felt that he was involved in a big event, and he knew that he shouldn't have taken this task in the first place, and who knows if he would be killed by this crazy guy after the mission is over.
Phew, "Hell" guys!
On the other side, Yin Jiuchen, who passed by the team, didn't know how to walk the path, and from time to time left the camp to fetch water alone, this situation lasted for a few days, Xia Lian couldn't help but question Yin Jiuchen:
"What are you doing?"
"Lian, you may not have felt it, but the other day when I looked at the breathless white spotted tiger of the mercenary team, the gloomy man who hid his face under the hood exuded murderous intent towards me. ”
Yin Jiuchen rolled the beast meat on the bonfire, and his tone was a little contemptuous: "He thought I couldn't detect it, but it was too obvious to me, so he couldn't help but take a closer look at the white tiger." ”
"......" Xia Lian felt that Yin Jiuchen was dying, "and then?"
"Then, I discovered a secret. Yin Jiuchen took off the roasted bubbling beast meat, sprinkled it with seasoning spices, and fused it with the aroma of meat, which immediately made people appetite, he handed the most tender part to Xia Lian, and left a big bite.
"That white spotted tiger is actually a snow mountain white tiger, a branch of the ancient white tiger, even if the bloodline is very thin, but it still has a strength beyond the same level of beast clan, the focus is ......"
Yin Jiuchen swallowed the delicious beast meat in his mouth: "The point is that that the mercenary team is not a professional hunter, and it seems that they don't know that the Snow Mountain White Tiger has just become a mother." ”
"What do you mean?"
"It means that they missed a little milk tiger," Yin Jiuchen smiled, "That's a snow-capped white tiger, and some people want to spend a lot of money as a training pet." ”
"What does this have to do with your wandering around these days?"
"I'm not trying to test whether the gloomy man sent someone to assassinate him, his killing intent was very strong at that time, and instead of being scared, it is better to change the passive to the active and lure the killer out. ”
"So now ......"
"Well, I'm sure it's okay. Yin Jiuchen wiped his mouth and let out a comfortable burp, "Tomorrow we will go to find the little milk tiger." ”
"Do you know the place?"
"Don't underestimate a professional hunter. ”
......
On the snow-capped mountain that has not melted all year round, two figures were ushered in, and the cold wind tore the robes of the two of them, making a rustling sound. At this time, Yin Jiuchen regretted a little, if the mercenary team had already discovered the little milk tiger, but he didn't bring the body down, then wouldn't he be busy in vain?
Instead of a pinnacle, the summit is a crater, a dormant volcano with snow-covered gravel on one side and steaming volcanic hot springs on the other.
"It should be here, be careful. ”
As a hunter, vigilance is fundamental, because when you successfully hunt one prey, there is a good chance that another prey is patiently waiting for you to slack off.
Yin Jiuchen walked down the mountain pass, brushed aside the ice and snow, observed the blood and traces of the battle that had been covered, and tried to restore the battle situation in his mind. It took half an hour to check the traces back and forth, and Yin Jiuchen finally stopped in front of a boulder, if his judgment was correct, then there should be a hidden hole under this boulder.
Yin Jiuchen pulled out the iron sword behind his back, the black chain sword could not be used, and the four-grade black iron sword given by the uncle was a little eye-catching, and Yin Jiuchen was now carrying an ordinary iron sword.
The unpretentious iron sword lit up with a misty white light, and the tip of the sword swung downward, stirring the air and making a subtle chirp, Yin Jiuchen's whole body tensed, like a full bowstring, and in an instant, it broke out, and the snow flew, leaving only a thin line in the air.
"Martial Arts: White Gap"
The big stone quietly split into two, and Yin Jiuchen cast the white gap back and forth, cutting the big stone into small pieces, and then kicked the big stone apart, part of the stone flew away, and part fell down, revealing a dark hole mouth, and a slight beastly breath emanated.
Yin Jiuchen looked at the dark entrance of the cave, listening to the sound of stones falling and rolling in the hole, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, his guess was really right!
When Yin Jiuchen was a little proud because he confirmed his guess, he didn't notice the abnormality of the air flow at the entrance of the cave, and a sense of crisis suddenly enveloped him, he only had time to put the iron sword in front of him, and the strong force slapped on the iron sword, and the huge force slapped the iron sword out with him.
This blow made Yin Jiuchen sober up, and he cursed in his heart, but he still calmly rolled on the snow for a few weeks, dodged the follow-up pounce, got up, swung his sword, and the white light flowed, Yin Jiuchen drank angrily, and the iron sword under him broke through the snow with great force, colliding with the white shadow, and the aura energy exploded, making a loud noise in the air.
"Martial Arts: Airshock!"
The air shock sent the white shadow out of the air, and the iron sword in Yin Jiuchen's hand also screamed slightly, barely withstanding the impact. This blow seemed to hit the other party's head, and Yin Jiuchen had a chance to breathe, and finally had time to see the situation on the other side.
A cold wind blew, and the attacker revealed its body—a snow-capped mountain white tiger with a length of nearly five meters! The white tiger's eyes were not ice blue as recorded in the book, but blood red, revealing a fierce aura, making Yin Jiuchen feel somewhat similar to the rampaging beast clan in the Dusk Forest. It bared its teeth at Yin Jiuchen, looking very angry.
What the hell is going on? Yin Jiuchen's mind was circling rapidly, this was not the little milk tiger he was guessing at all! But at the moment, he couldn't think about it carefully, the strength of this Snow Mountain White Tiger vaguely surpassed him, and surviving was the first priority.
The Snow Mountain White Tiger roared at Yin Jiuchen, shaking a snowflake, and just as Yin Jiuchen was ready to resist the attack at any time, the white tiger actually shook a little, and rushed past him towards Xia Lian.
What a cunning!
"Lotus, get out of the way!" It was obviously too late to intercept, Yin Jiuchen raised his sword to sweep away the ice and snow, took off into the air, twisted his body in the air and attached the "Cocoon Breaking" martial art to the iron sword, and shot it out. The Iron Sword with the Cocoon Breaking Technique attached to it gradually decreases in power after leaving the hand, but the short time it takes to leave the hand still gives it enough power to break through the White Tiger's defenses.
The White Tiger noticed Yin Jiuchen's angry blow, but it did not give up the target of the attack, and under the high-speed action, it twisted its body slightly to avoid fatal damage, and the iron sword pierced its thigh, making it stumble for a moment, but it still couldn't affect its fangs on Xia Lian.
Can't catch up...... The battlefield was changing rapidly, and at this moment, Yin Jiuchen's eyes reflected the white tiger's hideous beast mouth and Xia Lian's weak body, and he once again felt his own powerlessness.
