Chapter 3: Demon Beasts

In the blink of an eye, it was the third day. It was the adult hunting trial day set by the clan, and the patriarch Xiang Zhijun came to the bottom of the tower at the entrance of the village early in the morning, and all the villagers in the clan were behind him. Twelve teenagers over the age of sixteen stood in a row in the front, and two middle-aged men and a twenty-year-old young man stood in the back, and the three of them were the leaders of the trial. Fifteen people stood silently waiting for the patriarch to give the order.

Xiang Zhiyun's long gray hair was combed behind by two braids, and his deep and determined eyes swept over all the young people who participated in the trial, and he said loudly, "My Xiang clan people have been brave people since ancient times, and they dare to challenge all strong enemies. Today will be the time for you to prove that you have become a true warrior, the people of the Xiang clan need you, and the clansmen need strong men to protect them! Let's go and fight!"

Seeing a group of more than a dozen people walking towards the mountains, the people in the village were uncontrollable for a while! Meng Jingxue looked at Xiang Yun's back as he gradually walked away, and grabbed Xiang Tiande's hand a little nervously and whispered, "Tiande, I heard that the fierce beasts in the mountains have been very terrifying recently, Yun'er...... Yun'er will come back safely, right?"

Standing in front of him, Xiang Zhiyun heard the words, and immediately shouted, "The woman's opinion must not be said much." In fact, as the patriarch, how could he not be worried! Because one of the teenagers who participated in the trial this time was none other than his only grandson -- Xiang Yun. At the same time, he knows more clearly that only the strong can survive in this world!

The trial team disappeared from everyone's sight after a short time, and the three leaders were Xiang Tiancheng, the captain of the hunting guards, and Xiang Yunde was called his uncle according to his generation, of course, he was only a brother of the same generation as Xiang Tiande. The second person who looks somewhat similar to Xiang Yun is Xiang Yun's second uncle Xiang Tianhai. The third person was just 20 years old, named Xiang He, and most of the clansmen called him the second dog. Because of its sensitive nose, it is a rare hunter in the hunting guards.

Looking at the high mountains in front of him, Xiang Tiancheng stopped and said in a low voice. In front of them is the Diecui Mountains, and in order not to scare away the fierce beasts in the mountains, they each apply medicine to their upper bodies.

Everyone took out a packet of medicinal powder from their bosoms and sprinkled it on their bodies, Xiang Yun knew that this was a kind of ground medicine powder that was unique to the mountains, and sprinkled on the body could cover up the human breath. It is a must-have item for the Hunters.

After everyone finished smearing, they began to climb the stone mountain, and when they reached the top of the mountain, they saw a series of mountains overlapping with verdant mountains, extending to the horizon and nowhere else. The group quietly walked towards the depths of the mountain range, and the two dogs took the lead in exploring the way. From time to time, I saw him pouting his nose and sniffing around, and the group traveled about ten miles. The second dog turned back at this time and whispered beside Xiang Tiancheng, "Uncle Cheng, something is wrong with the situation!"

In fact, Xiang Tiancheng couldn't help pulling his goatee at the beginning, and his face looked a little dignified. Hearing this, he raised his arm to stop the team and said in a deep voice, "Ergouzi, is there anything abnormal ahead?"

The second dog looked around and replied in a whisper. "It's strange, I haven't even heard a bird's call along the way, and I haven't found any traces of beasts in this area. ”

Xiang Tiancheng lowered his head and muttered for a moment, then ordered the team to move forward again.

The group walked through a large area of jungle, only to see the two dogs who were exploring the way in front of them, and suddenly made a two-finger cross-finger gesture backwards. The team then stopped, each drawing their weapons to stand on guard.

At this time, the two dogs were like civet cats, and they jumped lightly into the grass in front of them.

Xiang Yun said in his heart, there must have been something to discover. Then he inserted the long sword into his waist, and took off the golden bone longbow on his back to guard with arrows. But when he closed his eyes to sense, he didn't find anything.

Suddenly, the grass was pushed away, and everyone's nerves tensed instantly. I saw the two dogs poking their heads out.

looked at a few teenagers and said in a low voice, "The feces left by the saber-toothed tiger were found in the grass, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with!"

Xiang Tianhai suddenly understood, and asked urgently, "How many are there?"

Ergouzi stretched out three fingers, and continued, "At least three heads or more!"

At this time, everyone was silent, and even if the saber-toothed tigers with more than three heads were encountered, they could only walk around!

Xiang Tiancheng stroked his beard and thought for a moment, then led the team in another direction. After traveling for about ten miles, the team stopped again, and everyone was really a little annoyed. Nothing like this has ever happened before!

Just when everyone was at a loss, "Roar ......!" only to hear the sound of a beast roaring in front of them, and everyone immediately turned over and stood up.

Xiang Tianhai took two steps forward and hesitated, "Listening to the roar of this beast, it should be a violent bear, but just crossing this mountain is where the demon beast is." I think it's better not to take risks!"

Just when everyone was looking at me and I was looking at you, Xiang Tiancheng finally made a decision. The three team leaders stepped forward to check what was going on, and the rest waited in place.

Xiang Tiancheng immediately led Xiang Tianhai and Ergouzi over the mountains, dived into the jungle, and looked down at the mountains, which was really thrilling!

Below was a swamp that stretched into the distance, and herds of beasts rushed towards the quagmire. If you look closely, you will find that each beast has blood-red eyes, completely disregarding life and death, and the two giant crocodiles are torn and strife. The corpses of the beasts on the edge of the quagmire were patches, and the blood and water mixed with the muddy water stained the quagmire a dark red. The blood qi echoed above the swamp like a veil of blood-colored mist!

"Uncle Cheng, what do you see on that big rock on the edge of the swamp?" Ergouzi asked in a low voice, pointing downward.

Xiang Tiancheng had already discovered that on the top of the stone, there was a fox with a fiery red back and a piece of golden hair under its belly. The most special thing was that the fox had three fiery red stuffed tails, and those three tails were waving wildly. With each swing of the three tails, a purple flame of light flew forward, tearing at the forehead of the giant black-scaled crocodile, and at the same time, the fierce beast fought more fiercely.

"If I'm not mistaken, the thing on the stone should be a third-order demon beast (three-tailed fire spirit fox), this thing is cunning by nature, especially resentful, although it is not as good as the nine-tailed fox, but it is also good at casting charm and magic skills. Those fierce beasts must have been driven by their enchanting skills to come here and fight those two first-order ink-scaled crocodiles!"

Demon beasts are called demons, and they are generally beasts that have absorbed some heaven and earth spiritual objects and opened their spiritual wisdom. Once some demon beasts have opened their minds and have thoughts, their IQ is not lower than that of humans. At the same time, each demon beast will cultivate according to its own nature, so as to enhance its own demon mana. Demon beasts are equivalent to another creature that can be cultivated.

Xiang Tianhai looked at the fierce battle below, and took a deep breath to see that he was shocked! A brown-haired bear and the black-scaled crocodile were biting and fighting on the edge of the quagmire, and they were swept by the giant tail of the black-scaled crocodile and fell into the mire and sank and disappeared. A blue-and-white python wrapped around a giant crocodile and rolled on the edge of the quagmire, and the python's beak was aimed at the neck of the black-scaled crocodile and bit it, but it could not bite through the black and bright scale armor. Instead, he was held down by a giant crocodile with a turnover and strong legs, and the python just broke free but saw a bloody mouth closed, and the python was bitten off by the black-scaled crocodile.

Although the two first-order demon beasts were fierce and abnormal, they were also outnumbered, and even the black jewel-like scales had already fallen off. The three-headed saber-toothed tiger is the most ferocious in combat and is also the main fighting force among all the attacking beasts. It was like a sharp sword picking at its teeth, and once it bit a giant crocodile, it would leave a wound after wound. The three-tailed fire spirit fox on the top of the stone, staring at the two giant crocodiles with fierce light in their eyes, the three tails kept waving, making a "whining ......" sound in their mouths, which made people have to imagine what kind of hatred this is, which makes this fire spirit fox so desperate to retaliate!

The battle intensified, and the strongest saber-toothed tiger pierced deep into the crocodile's neck, and as it tore off, blood splattered, leaving a large bloody wound on the giant crocodile's neck.

At this time, the black-scaled crocodile suddenly became ruthless, biting one of the hind legs of the saber-toothed tiger and dragging it desperately, no matter how hard it struggled, it was still difficult to shake it off. In this way, the saber-toothed tiger was dragged into the mire step by step, and the saber-toothed tiger had to watch as its body was swallowed by the black mud.

When Xiang Tiancheng saw this, his expression was very suspicious. The three of them glanced at each other, and suddenly had an idea, if you don't want to be tempted to encounter this cheap thing, it would be really stupid!

The three of them decided to let Ergouzi go back to the village to report the situation. The two stayed behind to keep an eye on the battle in the swamp.

Now there are only two saber-toothed tigers left among the many fierce beasts, and the giant crocodile that was seriously injured in the neck just now also disappeared with the strongest saber-toothed tiger in the swamp.

And the fire spirit fox on the top of the stone looked a little tired because he had been using witchcraft. But after it was swallowed up by the swamp mud with the saber-toothed tiger, it waved its tail a few times more ferociously, and the "whine" in its mouth became more urgent.

At this time, the eyes of the remaining two saber-toothed tigers flashed red, and the ink-scaled crocodile on the edge of the pond was desperate, completely ignoring their own pain. One of them bit one of the front legs of the giant crocodile, and the other bit the tail of the black-scaled crocodile and tore it in the opposite direction, and for a while the blood and mud splashed wildly, and at the same time that the giant crocodile was facing the dismemberment of the corpse, he desperately turned his head and bit the neck of a saber-toothed tiger. Suddenly, the hiss shook the sky, and I saw the black-scaled crocodile screaming in the sky, which was miserable.

For a moment, the swamp was quiet, and the crocodile lost one of its front legs, and the giant tail behind it was broken. Motionless, he crouched on the edge of the pool, except that the giant mouth was still on the neck of a saber-toothed tiger.

At the top of the big stone not far away, the three-tailed fire spirit fox lay still a little awkwardly, panting slightly. And on the edge of the swamp pool, a saber-toothed tiger was lame, turning its head back and forth to look at the scene around it. His eyes were no longer blood-red, but he looked a little confused. I don't seem to know what I just did.

Just when Xiang Tiancheng thought that the battle was completely over, he saw that in the dark red swamp pool, the ink-scaled crocodile that sank with the saber-toothed tiger quietly surfaced at this time. Gradually approaching the last saber-toothed tiger whose eyes were still confused, the blood basin bit its hind legs. He dragged it into the muddy water, and blood spurted out of the water. Moments later, the tattered remains of the saber-toothed tiger surfaced and died.

Not long after, the heavily wounded body of the crocodile resurfaced. Slowly climbed under the boulder, and opened his huge mouth to the fire spirit fox, as if he was demonstrating to the other party.

The fire spirit fox stood up suddenly, looked at the demonstrative black-scaled crocodile below, let out a helpless scream, turned around and jumped towards the jungle and disappeared.

Xiang Tiancheng, who was in the bushes on the opposite mountain, heard a sound behind him, and looked back to see that it was a few children who participated in the trial today. "Why did you come up?!" I was about to reprimand a few people, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, hey, what about Xiang Yun? Hurriedly asked, "Why didn't Xiao Yunzi come up together!?"
