Chapter 20: The Horned Leopard

Ten days passed in a flash, and in the demon forest, a strong crashing sound erupted.

"Boom!"

The dust was flying, and a small tree less than five years old snapped in response, and with the wail of the demon beast, the demon forest returned to calm again.

I saw that Tang Xian was a little breathless, but there was excitement in his eyes, looking at the demon beast that was already dead.

This is a nine-grade iron porcupine, with black and shiny hair like steel needles, and its thick fangs, which were originally an inch long, are now broken in two, and there is a hatchet knife stuck in its neck, and a large amount of blood is spurting from the wound.

At this time, the flat-headed brother who was watching the play on the side rushed up, and bit at the belly of the iron porcupine, and after a while, he took out a demon pill and returned to Tang Xian's side.

Tang Xian looked at Brother Pingtou and was very curious, you know, this iron porcupine is in the Nine Rank Demon Beasts, but it is known for its rough skin and thick flesh, and its hard hair rubs pine oil on the pine and cypress all the year round, and it is difficult for ordinary Nine Rank martial artists to break through his defenses, but Brother Pingtou'er's sharp teeth can quickly break through the flesh of the iron porcupine and take out the demon pill, and the bite ability is probably definitely not simple!

Looking at the expectant eyes of the flat-headed brother, Tang Xian smiled and said, "The old rule, one person and half!"

Brother Pingtou screamed twice excitedly, and then bit "quack", half of the demon pill was swallowed into his stomach, and the other half was handed to Tang Xian, and Tang Xian took it.

After taking the demon pill, Tang Xian shouted comfortably, feeling that the energy in his body had increased a few points again, and then a trace of battle intent appeared in his eyes.

"It seems that with the growth of energy, this nine-rank demon pill can no longer make my cultivation increase significantly!" Tang Xian said in his heart.

In the past few days, Tang Xian has hunted and killed six demon beasts, five of which are ninth rank and one is lower eighth grade. Among them, only the eight-rank demon pill made Tang Xian significantly improved, and the other nine grades were simply minor.

Although he shared the demon pill with the flat-headed brother every time, Tang Xian clearly felt that the nine-grade demon pill could no longer meet his requirements.

There are still five days to go, but Tang Xian feels that he still hasn't reached the strength of the eighth grade, just a little bit worse, but it is not something that can be made up by the mere ninth grade demon pill.

"Do you want to go one step further into the depths of the Demon Forest?" Tang Xian thought to himself.

Walking one more mile into the depths of the demon forest will increase the risk of one mile of land, and God knows if you will encounter some powerful demon beasts that have indiscriminately entered the periphery?

Just when Tang Xian was hesitating, suddenly a beast roar erupted in the mountain forest, and the powerful momentum blew up the leaves on the ground.

"There's a big demon!" Tang Xian felt this powerful momentum, subconsciously pulled out the firewood knife inserted in the iron porcupine's body, jumped back into an open area, and looked around vigilantly.

Almost at the same time, a yellow, black-spotted figure burst out of the forest.

The body of a leopard, the horns of a cow, the length of two meters, and a steel whip-like tail crackled in the air.

It's a horned leopard!

The horned leopard grinned wide, revealing its white teeth, revealing a bloodthirsty light in its eyes, and its abdomen was slightly deflated, obviously it had not eaten for some days! Looking at Tang Xian, his body unconsciously exuded a rich demonic aura.

On the eighth grade!

Tang Xian clearly felt that this kind of demonic aura was something he had never encountered, although it did not reach the sense of oppression that Wu Shisan gave him, but his strength was definitely higher than that of ordinary eight-rank martial artists!

I saw the horned leopard carefully circling around, and finally paced to the side of the iron porcupine, lowered his head and sniffed, the bloody breath further stimulated the beastly nature of the horned leopard.

Suddenly, the horned leopard found that a blood hole had been dug out of the iron porcupine's abdomen, and the demon pill was gone, and suddenly there was a fierce light in his eyes, and he glared at Tang Xian fiercely.

Tang Xian knew that the cultivation of demon beasts, in addition to absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon on weekdays, could also increase their cultivation by devouring each other's demon pills. Obviously, the disappearance of the Iron Porcupine Demon Pill made the Oxhorn Leopard angry.

"Leopard demon beast, good at running, presumably this battle can't be avoided!" Tang Xian clenched the firewood knife in his hand, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously pulled out a smile.

Obviously, after these ten days of fighting, the warlike will in Tang Xian's bones took root like planting, and unconsciously, Tang Xian was more inclined to take risks in battle, which was the change that "Haijing" brought to Tang Xian.

However, risks are risks, and there is still enough work to be done in safety. Tang Xian turned his head and said to Brother Pingtou: "Brother Pingtou, keep an eye on it, if you feel that I can't beat me, you should hurry up and find Xinxin to save me!"

Brother Pingtou gave Tang Xian a reassuring look, but Tang Xian secretly speculated that if he couldn't beat this horned leopard, I am afraid that Brother Pingtou would not call for help at all, but personally went into battle to fight the horned leopard.

At the moment when Tang Xian communicated with Brother Pingtou, the horned leopard roared violently and rushed towards Tang Xian.

"What a shrewd brute!" Tang Xian's inner sea meridian ran at full strength, and his footsteps moved quickly.

Soon, the pair of sharp horns stabbed in front of Tang Xian's body, thick and powerful, and the tips of the horns flashed cold light in the sun, stabbing at Tang Xian's dantian vital point. The angle is tricky and ruthless, and I don't know how many adventurers have been pierced through.

"It's good!" Tang Xian's eyes were full of war, and the firewood knife in his hand slashed in the direction from which the horns of the ox had come from.

"Bang!"

The two attacks collided, making a sore metal cutting sound, and the horned leopard did not move at all, while Tang Xian was pushed five or six steps away by this powerful impact.

"Grandma's! worthy of being an eighth-grade demon beast!" Tang Xian shook his somewhat sour arm.

But the cunning ox-horned leopard would not give Tang Xian time to breathe, and its tyrannical personality made it eager to tear Tang Xian to pieces.

Suddenly, the horned leopard's feet were like the wind, and the yellow figure galloped forward.

"So fast!" Tang Xian's brain had no other space to think, his whole body was tense, and he was completely focused on the body of the horned leopard, but he could still barely see the yellow afterimage quickly approaching him.

Tang Xian suddenly turned sideways, his energy skyrocketed, and a stone under his feet was stepped on and split in half.

At the moment when Tang Xian just dodged, the attack of the horned leopard grazed Tang Xian's shoulder, and the original shabby clothes were scraped out of a slender hole.

But just when Tang Xian felt that he had dodged this blow, the horned leopard's whip-like tail whistled and swept over, slamming at Tang Xian's back!

"Smack!"

There was an oozing sound, Tang Xian's back clothes were torn, and a bloody wound appeared on Tang Xian's back. Blood was sprinkled on the grass on the ground.

"Nurse's!" Tang Xian felt a burning pain in his back.

That powerful blow almost made Tang Xian lose his ability to move, and he could only half-kneel on the ground, supporting his body with a firewood knife, barely gasping for breath.

The Oxhorn Leopard, on the other hand, was very satisfied with his attack, with a playful look in his eyes and a sticky saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth, obviously eager to enjoy this meal!
