Chapter 16: The Night When the Moon Darks and the Wind Kills the Leopard
Landing smoothly on the stone platform, Zhang Wuji was about to use the bone shrinking skill to drill in, and suddenly frowned slightly.
He reached out and plucked a white animal hair from the nearby stone wall.
Although it was also white, it was not monkey hair, which immediately made him more careful.
Zhang Wuji thought about it, and for the sake of prudence, he didn't rush in, but climbed along the cliff on this side towards the top.
This is not the only way to enter the Spirit Valley, you can also enter it from the top of the mountain on this side, but it is more troublesome.
Of course, compared with some unknown dangers, Zhang Wuji is still willing to pay some time.
"Whew!" was just halfway up the climb, and suddenly a vicious wind blew behind him.
Zhang Wuji was already careful, and at this moment, he didn't have time to think about it and dodged this blow with a sharp flick, and at the same time, the sword in his hand was out of the sheath with a sonorous sound.
He turned his head to look intently, and found that it was a white snow leopard that attacked him, this guy was clinging to the cliff, a pair of eyes staring at Zhang Wuji, and a whimper in his throat.
"What, do you want to practice with the master?" Zhang Wuji said with a smile.
However, although his tone was smiling, he did not despise this snow leopard, and the speed at which the snow leopard attacked him just now had already surpassed the ordinary state.
Obviously, this guy is also a spirit beast that has absorbed the aura and mutated.
Even in the past few years, it has probably stayed in Linggu for the past few years, and it may be able to call this place home.
Animals are different from humans, as soon as they mutate, they are immediately reborn.
Like this snow leopard, the current speed is probably faster than that of ordinary acquired masters, and the terrain is favorable to it, if Zhang Wuji hadn't been cautious and cautious, it was really possible that the boat would capsize in the gutter and be killed by a beast.
One person and one leopard confronted each other like this, and no one took the initiative to attack.
Zhang Wuji is because most of what he has learned comes from Wudang, and Wudang pays attention to being a preemptive strike, and when he encounters this life-and-death situation, of course he has to use his best kung fu to deal with it.
The leopard was a little hesitant.
Its instincts told it that the human in front of it was dangerous and not so easy to hunt.
But Kaihui's experience after it told it that the sudden appearance of this human being here was probably to rob him of his chance, and it was impossible for him to ignore .......
To Zhang Wuji's surprise, after more than a minute of confrontation, the snow leopard retreated step by step and left.
"Good guy, this is really a refinement!" Zhang Wuji muttered, but instead of letting his guard down, he became more and more careful.
The most powerful thing about the snow leopard is the silent sneak attack, and he doesn't think that the other party has given up this hunt by retreating, maybe it is to retreat as advance.
continued to climb, and after more than 20 minutes, Zhang Wuji made a big circle and finally returned to the Spirit Valley.
Several times during this time, he felt the leopard's looming qi, which proved that he was right, and the guy was still hunting him.
After taking a turn in the Spirit Valley, Zhang Wuji soon found traces of the snow leopard's activities.
He guessed correctly, this leopard really regarded Linggu as its nest.
A cold light flashed in Zhang Wuji's eyes, this is his territory, how can he tolerate a leopard going wild.
"Squeak, squeak......!" Suddenly there was an urgent cry from the tree overhead.
Zhang Wuji looked up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile.
Two white apes, one large and one small, were swinging rapidly from a distance.
These two guys were obviously expelled from Linggu by the snow leopard before, and they noticed that Zhang Wuji was back and came to complain.
Zhang Wuji calmed the two restless white apes, went to find a few peaches, and went to hunt a hare to eat a beautiful meal, and then began to cultivate cross-legged.
He didn't plan to leave for the time being, and he would kill this snow leopard first.
He had a flying pigeon contact with the second division Bo Yu Lianzhou, and knew that the large army of the Wudang faction to participate in the siege of Guangming Ding had not yet arrived at this time, so he was not in a hurry, and his plan would not be carried out until the six major factions gathered.
For two days, the snow leopard did not appear again.
But Zhang Wuji clearly knew that the guy was hovering around him, and he was just looking for an opportunity.
"In that case, then I'll give you a chance!"
On the third night of entering the Spirit Valley, Zhang Wuji lit a bonfire around him after eating, and did not meditate and practice again, but built a shack for himself to get ready for a good night's sleep.
Tonight the sky was a little gloomy, there was no moonlight, it was the night of the dark wind and the high killing.
At two o'clock in the morning, a white shadow quietly appeared on a big tree near Zhang Wuji.
It was very patient, and just looked at the shack quietly for an hour, and then it had the next move.
Slowly approaching, each step accurately calculated the position of the claw, did not step on any dead branches and leaves, it was like a ghost, without making any sound, close to Zhang Wuji's distance of three meters.
Such a distance is less than a breath away for it.
It bared its fangs, stooped and flicked its tail, its hind paws leaping to its feet.
It was a perfect hunt.
Snow Leopard thinks so, and Zhang Wuji thinks the same way.
At the moment when the cheetah jumped up, he drew his sword at the same time after waiting for a long time, the sword light flickered, and all the swordsmanship of a year and a half of penance was gathered on this sword, and it suddenly stabbed out.
The snow leopard regretted it the moment it jumped up, because it saw a bright sword light, and it knew that it had been fooled.
At the critical moment, its tail snapped and slammed into the ground.
Its body relied on this flick, and it bounced upwards by three inches, and it was these three inches that saved its life.
The sword light slashed through its abdomen, although it was a little painful, and it felt cold between its hind legs, but it didn't matter, its skin was rough and thick, it only hurt its fur.
Hit the ground, bend down, bounce up again, and the next moment it will escape from the range of this human attack.
It had already decided that when it escaped, it would stay as far away from this human as possible, and when it was gone, it would come back on its own.
"Boom!" But just then, another white shadow fell from the sky and crashed towards it.
The timing was just right, and it was the time when it flew in the air and had nowhere to borrow power.
This time it couldn't escape, and it was hit squarely.
It was an old white ape that hit it, it knew this guy, and it had a big fight with it two years ago for the battle for Linggu, and it almost bit this guy to death in that battle, and now it is back.
Is...... Is......!
"Huh!" another flash of sword light, and the snow leopard's head was slashed off with a sword.
"Damn, this guy is awesome, his body can still move in the air, and he almost let it run away!" Zhang Wuji took a breath, although he only made two swords, he felt more tired than fighting swords with the exterminator for three hundred rounds.
The little white ape who had been eating melons in the distance cheered and turned into a white shadow and pounced.
The same is true of the old white apes, whose targets are the flesh and blood of the snow leopard.
This is spirit beast meat, and it is an absolute supplement for them.
", you two foodies, leave me some!" Zhang Wuji looked at the snow leopard that didn't bat until he died, and joined the scramble with a shake of his body.
