Chapter 17: The Netherworld Tiger King
CHAPTER XVII
"Hmm... Where is this..."Yun Xuan opened his heavy eyes hard, trying to twist his stiff neck and look around.
This is a large stone cave, lying under the body is a flat big bluestone, around the big bluestone placed a few fluorescent stones emitting a faint light, making the stone cave appear more and more profound.
"I remember...... Nether Tiger!Ling Si!" As his consciousness gradually cleared up, Yun Xuan finally recalled the scenes in the mountain stream. Thinking of this, Yun Xuan straightened up violently, a sharp pain came from his chest, Yun Xuan reached out and touched his chest, and the three inch-long scars looked so hideous.
Scars, pain, all this reminds Yun Xuan that this is not a dream, but something that is really happening.
"The wound has been scarred, it seems that my sleep time should not be short!Why didn't I die?How did I get here?Ling Si?" A series of questions surfaced in Yun Xuan's mind, Yun Xuan endured the pain in his chest, turned down the big bluestone, and looked around. Finally, with the faint light emitted by the fluorescent stone, Yun Xuan saw a thin figure lying on a stone not far away, obviously it was Ling Si.
"It's okay, it's okay, Ling Si is also here, it looks like we should have been rescued by someone. Looking at the figure lying on his stomach not far away, Yun Xuan also breathed a long sigh of relief. Just as Yun Xuan wanted to go over to check on Ling Si's situation, a hoarse and stiff voice caused Yun Xuan to freeze in place.
"Human, you've finally woken up, and this king is about to lose his patience. ”
Listening to these somewhat blunt words, Yun Xuan only felt that the hairs on his body stood up. The owner of this voice brought Yun Xuan the only feeling of murderous intent and blood.
"Human?this king?" Yun Xuan's brain was running rapidly, and the unhappiness brought to Yun Xuan by the owner of the voice had already made Yun Xuan think that this person was by no means a good person, coupled with all the information leaked in his words, it made Yun Xuan even more shocked in his heart, "Could it be ......?"
Looking for the voice, in the dark place that the fluorescent stone light could not cover, a tall figure slowly walked out, looking at the figure that became clearer and clearer, Yun Xuan's heart became heavier and heavier.
Looking at the gradually approaching figure, Yun Xuan only felt that it was difficult to breathe and tremble, not that Yun Xuan was timid and cowardly, but that the gradually clear figure, and the momentum exuded by that figure, which oppressed Yun Xuan, spread uncontrollable fear from the depths of his soul.
Because that figure is a spirit beast, and it is a spirit beast that has begun to transform!
Yun Xuan's mind quickly flashed through some books that he had flipped through casually in the clan because of boredom, and one of them was recorded like this: Spirit beasts are only the popular name of the human realm, but in fact, all the beasts in the world can be divided into five realms. One is a beast, two is a mortal beast, three is a spirit beast, four is a heavenly beast, and five is a divine beast.
Beast refers to the beast below the Qi Gathering Realm, although this kind of beast is gradually enlightened, it is still wild and difficult to escape, so it is still a beast. Mortal beasts refer to beasts that have reached the realm of gathering qi, and such beasts have opened their minds and have scheming and emotions, and are called mortal beasts. Spirit beasts refer to beasts that have reached the Ning Dan realm, and such beasts can already transform into human forms and speak human words. Celestial beasts refer to the beasts of the realm of transformation, which are no different from humans and have the power to penetrate the heavens and the earth. As for the Divine Beast, it will be a beast that has reached the realm of refining, why is it called a Divine Beast, because that level is already a god-like existence in this heaven and earth...
Yun Xuan looked at the figure that was already standing in front of him, and couldn't help but gasp, Ning Dan Realm Spirit Beast!
Ning Dan Realm, that is the top powerhouse in this heaven and earth, although there are several realms above the Ning Dan Realm, but I heard the elders in the family say that there has never been a strong person above the Ning Dan Realm in this world, that is to say, the Ning Dan Realm is already an invincible existence.
Thinking of this, Yun Xuan's flustered heart gradually calmed down, such a powerful spirit beast, if he wanted to kill himself, I am afraid that he would have died a hundred and eight times, since he did not die, then it just needs to use himself, as long as he has temporary use value, then his and Ling Si's lives can be said to be unhindered for the time being.
Yun Xuan took a deep breath and looked up at the tall figure that was already standing in front of him. The figure is a tiger-faced human body, two meters tall, two or three meters tall, broad shoulders and broad body, the lines of the muscles are full of explosiveness, and a wrist-thick black and white tiger tail is wrapped around the waist, just covering the intimate parts that have been transformed into human shapes. Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the huge tiger head on the shoulder, a pair of tiger eyes, one black and one white, flashing with demonic intent and blood.
"Why did you save me?" Yun Xuan asked, looking at the fierce beast in front of him now. Although Yun Xuan still had a trace of fear in his heart, his tone was extremely calm, because Yun Xuan knew in his heart that since he was not dead, then the other party must need to do something for him, and since he wanted to negotiate, he couldn't lose the momentum first.
The Tiger King glanced at Yun Xuan, who was pretending to be calm, with great interest, and asked, "You're not afraid of me?"
"I'm afraid. Yun Xuan didn't hide it, and replied succinctly.
"Then aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
"You won't, because you have something to ask me!" Yun Xuan raised his head, looked directly at the pair of demonic tiger eyes, and said word by word.
As soon as Yun Xuan's words fell, he suddenly felt the inverted figure in front of him burst out with a terrifying aura. Yun Xuan, who was directly shocked, snorted, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
"Human, you are so arrogant, no one has dared to talk to this king for many years. The fierce light in the tiger king's eyes flashed, but it immediately disappeared again, and at the same time, the domineering aura emanating from his body also converged. "But you're smart. The calm Tiger King continued, "This king will make a deal with you." ”
"I want to hear about it. Yun Xuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said.
"Go to the cave and take out the 'dark water' inside to the king. ”
Listening to the Tiger King's words, Yun Xuan first shook the "Dark Water" Isn't this the purpose of Ling Si and his trip? Now after he has been asleep for a while, the first news he heard was actually it. After being shocked for a moment, a series of questions appeared in Yun Xuan's mind. Since this big guy knows where the things are, why do you have to pick them up yourself? Is it dangerous? No, if the strength of the big guy can't get the "dark water", then wouldn't it be to deliver food by yourself......
Seeing that Yun Xuan was silent, the Tiger King spoke, "Human, don't think about it, it shouldn't be difficult for you, it's just that the place where the 'Dark Dark Water' grows has been sealed by an old thing, and I can't get in." ”
Listening to the Tiger King's words, Yun Xuan was interested, there was actually a seal that this peerless beast couldn't break, what kind of existence should the person who set this seal be! Yun Xuan let out an "oh?", staring at the Tiger King in front of him, waiting for him to explain the doubts in his heart.
The Tiger King glanced at Yun Xuan and knew that although the human being in front of him was only in the juvenile stage, if he didn't explain the reason, he really couldn't be moved, and he couldn't slap him to death. Therefore, the Tiger King said to himself, "Four hundred years ago, this king just formed the Soul Pill, and he discovered this cave that breeds 'Dark Dark Water', and I thought that when this king's demon skill broke through, he would absorb and refine the 'Dark Dark Water' so as to break the shackles in one fell swoop and successfully transform into a shape." Who knew that one hundred and fifty years ago, an old thing suddenly came, and the king couldn't beat him, so he had to watch him seal it up, but he never came out again, it should be that the old thing couldn't break through and died inside. Hahaha......" Speaking of this, the Tiger King looked up to the sky and laughed, his laughter was full of pleasure, obviously hating the mysterious old man. After a while, the Tiger King gritted his teeth and continued with some anger. Not long ago, this king felt that his breakthrough was coming, but I still couldn't break the seal of the old thing, so this king wondered, whether the seal of this old thing is only for us beasts, not for you humans, so this king ordered, catch one or two humans in, but this mountain range is rarely set foot in you humans, in the area of human activities on the periphery of the mountain range, the people with high strength can not go out, and those who can go out are all very low strength clansmen, but they are all hunted by you humans, none of them come back, and there is no human activity near the abyss。 So when the king was anxious, the two of you just broke in. ”
Listening to the Tiger King's words, Yun Xuan's heart jumped wildly, because from the Tiger King's words, Yun Xuan heard a lot of information.
First, the strength of this peerless beast in front of him is so strong that it has reached the peak of the Ning Dan Realm, and it is about to break through to the legendary Transformation God Realm. Second, there are races of Nether Tigers in the Nether Abyss, and there should be quite a few of them. Three, there is no way for this peerless beast to leave the Netherworld, and as the strength of other Netherworld Tigers increases, the range of their exit from the Netherworld Abyss should become smaller and smaller.
Just as Yun Xuan was pondering, the Tiger King's voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts: "Human, have you thought about it!"
"I can help you, but since it's a deal, what do I get?"
"Human, you are really bold!" said the Tiger King, whose eyes shone with a slight fierce light.
Yun Xuan shrugged and said, "Since it's a negotiation, I always need some bargaining chips, so let's do it, I don't need anything, just make sure that we can leave safely afterwards." But, you have to save my friend first, and then I will go and get what you need. ”
"Hahaha, you're really funny as a human!" Listening to Yun Xuan's request, the Tiger King suddenly raised his head and laughed again, and the laughter was so loud that the top of the cave fell into ashes.
Yun Xuan looked at the laughing Tiger King in horror, firstly, he didn't understand why the Tiger King was laughing, and he felt uneasy in his heart, and secondly, he realized the unfathomable strength of the Tiger King more and more clearly, just a few laughs, not only shook the cave, but even his own blood had a feeling that it was about to leave his body.
The Tiger King smiled and stared at Yun Xuan, who had a frightened face, and said slowly, "Human, I agreed to your request. I didn't expect that human beings can be as affectionate and righteous as our spirit beasts, very good, you are very good. ”
The Tiger King stopped laughing, and the blood in Yun Xuan's body slowly calmed down, listening to the Tiger King's words that seemed to be compliments, Yun Xuan couldn't help but pursed his lips and thought to himself, "What words, it's really prejudiced against us humans!" But thinking about it, Yun Xuan really didn't dare to declare it, after all, his and Ling Si's lives could be held in the hands of this powerful man. The reason why he was so calm in front of him and made a request was completely pretended, in order to do his best not to let the Tiger King despise him.
The Tiger King said that, and without waiting for Yun Xuan to answer, he walked straight towards Ling Si who was not far away. Watching the Tiger King walk towards Ling Si, Yun Xuan also staggered over.
"This mother is not bad, although you are both only young, and you are quite friendly. ”
"How is she? Why is she unconscious?" After walking in, Yun Xuan found that Ling Si's condition was really bad, Ling Si's originally pretty little face was covered with gray and purple, her small mouth was blue, her breathing was weak, and she was intermittent, as if she was about to lose her breath.
The Tiger King glanced at Yun Xuan, who had a nervous face, and said, "Don't worry, you can't die, it's just that you have taken too much spiritual energy." ”
"Dark Qi?" Yun Xuan looked puzzled.
The Tiger King looked impatient and pointed to the wisps of black-purple air flowing in the air and said, "Just these black air currents, unique to the Netherworld, our clan relies on these to cultivate the Netherworld. ”
"This should be the 'Netherworld Ghost Qi' that Ling Si said, but the name is different. It seems that there is still a mistake in the information, originally said that there could be no spirit beasts in this Netherworld Ghost Qi, but I never thought that the Netherworld Tiger Clan actually relied on this thing to cultivate. I and Ling Si broke in so rashly, I really don't know how to die. Yun Xuan secretly thought to himself that this experience could be regarded as a good lesson for Yun Xuan.
"That ......"
"Human, you're annoying, shut up. Yun Xuan just wanted to ask something more, but was scolded by the Tiger King.
Yun Xuan shrunk his neck and didn't dare to speak again. At this moment, the Tiger King raised his right arm and stretched out his palm, pointing the sharp fingertip at the center of Ling Si's eyebrows. After a while, I saw a trace of black-purple air flow slowly flowing down the Tiger King's fingertips into the Tiger King's palm. As the black-purple airflow was gradually withdrawn, Ling Si's face gradually regained its human color, and his breathing gradually stabilized. After a while, Ling Si's state had fully recovered, but he hadn't woken up yet.
The Tiger King withdrew his right hand, glanced at Yun Xuan, who was a little stunned, and said, "Human, it's time for you to complete our deal." ”
