Chapter Twenty-Four: Toothed Tiger and Strange Beast
Using people as bait to catch monsters is a very shameless act. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Even if he had an unpleasant relationship with Li Yuanlong, it was not much of a deep hatred. Anyway, the two of them have also been miscellaneous disciples for a while, although they are not very close, but they also have the friendship of the same family. When Luo Jiangshang encountered this kind of thing, he naturally couldn't sit idly by.
The tiger's roar is getting closer and closer, and it makes people's hearts beat.
Forty or fifty zhang away from the source of the sound, Luo Jiangshang asked his companion to stop and hide in the bushes.
Peeling off the bushes, you can see Li Yuanlong being tied like a dumpling and thrown on the ground from a distance. The demon beast that was regarded as the target of hunting, a white-haired eye-catching tiger, as tall as two people, was circling around Li Yuanlong, arching him with his head from time to time.
"This is the Toothed Tiger Beast, it is recorded in the Sect's Library Pavilion "Beast Monster Chronicles", Qi Guancheng gasped, "The adult Toothed Tiger Beast is one zhang tall, and it can swallow the Qi Refining Stage Monk in one bite, this one is obviously already an adult, who is so bold? How dare you provoke it?"
"Beast Monster Chronicle" is a travelogue that records the monsters and monsters in this world, including almost all the demons and beasts that have reached the equivalent of the power of Jindan real people. The Toothed Tiger Beast is one of the more vicious monsters, because of its low IQ and weak ability, but its whole body can be used to refine elixirs, magic weapons and talismans, so it is very popular with immortal cultivators, and can be sold at a high price in the polder market.
But obviously, Li Yuanlong on the ground is just a junior cultivator who has just started, and he is only a low-level cultivator in the Qi refining period, although he is used as a bait, he can also guess the person behind him, and his cultivation will definitely not be high.
At this point, the toothed tiger may be hungry, or it may be impatient to tease the human.
The big mouth is about to swallow Li Yuanlong.
Seeing this, Luo Jiangshang was about to yell 'save people' when two men, one woman and three people jumped out from behind the bushes, and the female monk led by him reprimanded lightly: "Monster, you dare?"
I saw that the sword in her hand was impenetrable, and pieces of sword shadows hit the door of the toothed tiger beast.
'Bang Bang Bang'
A series of explosions rang out, and the shadow of the sword slammed into the skin of the Toothed Tiger Beast like thunder in the sky. However, after all, the cultivation of the female cultivator was limited, and this attack was only thunder and rain. Although it has attracted the attention of the monster and made it forget to eat, it has already angered it.
Seeing this, the other two male monks also quickly drew their swords.
"Senior sister, we're here to help you!"
Two more swords flew in, 'ding' and two sounds, and smashed on the waist of the toothed tiger beast, but they were still as if they were slashed on iron and stone, and both swords were snorted.
The toothed tiger beast roared, showing the anger in its heart, and thought about hurting one person first.
It opened its mouth again, and the mana surging on the bloody mouth, and after a while, a fireball was formed, and the fireball roared towards Li Yuanlong, who could not move on the ground. Li Yuanlong was lying on the ground completely unable to move, and the expression on his face was obviously frightened.
However, the three monks who were fighting with the toothed tiger beast didn't even look at Li Yuanlong, obviously not wanting to care about his life or death.
"Help!"
Luo Jiangshang thought for a while and decided to save people.
The Dharma seal in his hand flew quickly, like a butterfly, and then his right hand quickly became longer, and after grabbing Li Yuanlong, he quickly changed back to its original state. Li Yuanlong had already been rescued and was lying at Luo Jiangshang's feet.
The Toothed Tiger Beast was furious when it saw its target disappear.
This anger turned into wind, into a cage, and imprisoned three monks, two men and one woman.
"Division...... Senior sister, we ...... We can't beat it......"
"This beast is an adult toothed tiger beast, not a juvenile as my senior brother said!"
The two male cultivators began to panic, they were originally pulled by the senior sister. Before coming to accompany the hunt of the toothed tiger beast, they asked the senior brother who was also an outer gate, and the senior brother told them that it was just a juvenile toothed tiger beast, and the two of them happily ran for the reward promised by the senior sister, and found a fool among the miscellaneous disciples to use as bait.
Unexpectedly, the gap in reality would be so big, and the two of them had already begun to regret it in their hearts.
"I'm in the foundation building period, what are you afraid of? Besides, this beast has cast a 'wind prison', and no one can escape if it is not slaughtered!"
With bitter faces, the two of them sacrificed their flying swords again, and kept slashing at the toothed tiger beast one by one, but it was completely useless. is the self-proclaimed senior sister of the foundation building period, and the shadow of the sword is sprinkled, which can always make the toothed tiger beast feel pain for a while.
"Idiot, the flying sword is useless, can't you use spells?I'll help you attract the attention of the toothed tiger beast, quickly beat it with spells!"
The senior sister opened her mouth and reprimanded loudly, and the two male cultivators were shocked.
Flying swords are just weapons, not magic weapons, and flying swords that are infused with mana are not sharper than swords in the mortal world. The toothed tiger beast is a cultivated beast, not an ordinary tiger and leopard. Using Fan Tie, who kills tigers and leopards, to kill foreign beasts is tantamount to a fool's dream.
The male cultivators put away their flying swords and began to cast their handprints.
Luo Jiangshang watched from afar, and guessed from the male cultivator's handprints that they were going to perform the Dao technique of the Five Elements of Fire. He just shook his head, knowing that just relying on the Fire Five Elements Dao Technique cultivated during the Qi Refining Period could not hurt the Toothed Tiger Beast by half a point.
Take the fireball that attacked Li Yuanlong as an example, it can be estimated that the cultivation of this toothed tiger beast has reached the level of at least the middle level of the foundation building period, plus it is itself a fire five elements beast, and it must have a high resistance to the fire five elements Dao technique.
As expected, the two male cultivators released a sea of fire, and the toothed tiger beast was still leisurely in it. On the contrary, the senior sister was left and right, and she looked very embarrassed.
"Are you two really idiots? β
Senior Sister Ye was very angry, and it was estimated that the anger in her heart was no less than that of the Toothed Tiger Beast.
She felt that today was really unlucky, the senior brother she had invited had something to do temporarily, and she was randomly stuffed with two junior brothers in the Qi refining period. Then he met a self-righteous miscellaneous disciple who volunteered to be a bait. I guess the bones of that miscellaneous disciple are no longer alive now, right?
The senior sister looked to the ground, but she didn't see Li Yuanlong's body, and thought that he had been burned to ashes by the fireball of the toothed tiger beast. I was distracted for a moment, and I felt upset at the thought of going back and explaining why the miscellaneous disciples died. In this way, the toothed tiger beast seized the opportunity to break through the sword shadow and bite the senior sister's shoulder.
"Oops!"
This bite was really ruthless, and the toothed tiger beast bit off the whole piece of meat on her shoulder, and immediately blood poured out, and the senior sister also collapsed on the ground.
"Senior sisterβ"
Seeing this, the two male cultivators had frightened and nervous expressions on their faces. However, where will the toothed tiger beast care about this other, seeing that the food is in front, the flesh and blood of the delicate senior sister are blurred in three bites.
Luo Jiangshang saw that his fellow door was injured, and he was anxious and wanted to rescue, but he was caught by Qi Guancheng.
On the field, the senior sister's moans became lower and lower, and as her head and limbs were bitten off by the toothed tiger beast, she was completely out of breath, and her fragrance was lost.
"That's our fellow doorman, how can we see death and not save it?"
Seeing that his fellow senior sister was bitten to death by a wild beast, Luo Jiangshang was angry that he didn't reach out to rescue.
"What are you going to save us, we are all in the Qi refining period, you see what happens to the two of them!"
Qi Guancheng kept his sanity very well, and Huo Jun also looked at Luo Jiangshang with a nervous expression, afraid that he would impulsively bury himself in the tiger's mouth.
Hearing this, Luo Jiangshang was shocked to realize that he was still hiding his cultivation, and he really couldn't come to the rescue.
When he looked at the Toothed Tiger again, there were already two more corpses on the ground.
Because of that saying, if the human heart is not enough, the snake swallows the elephant, and it will be choked to death. The greed of these three people is not directly proportional to their own ability, and they are killed by greed. Even after death, it is not allowed to rest in peace, and the flesh is swallowed by the toothed tiger beast one by one, digested into excrement, and finally becomes the nourishment between heaven and earth.
"But we can't escape ......"
Huo Jun was stunned and looked at the toothed tiger beast that came step by step.
This beast had already discovered that someone was hiding in the bushes, but he never showed this, which made Luo Jiangshang and the three of them relax their vigilance.
"Go underground. β
Luo Jiangshang's reminder made Qi Guancheng react quickly.
He had already learned the 'art of underground walking', and as soon as he picked up Li Yuanlong, who was still tied up by five flowers, he had words in his mouth, and his feet began to sink into the ground. Luo Jiangshang also concocted the same method, and took Huo Jun to sink into the ground as well.
The three of them ran all the way underground.
However, the Toothed Tiger seemed to sense it, and pursued it on the ground in the same direction.
"This beast has locked our qi engine, so we can't run away, we run to the most dangerous places marked on the map, I don't believe that the toothless tiger beast can't be scared?"
Luo Jiang Shangxiu is much taller than Qi Guancheng, and he can see the situation on the ground at any time. The latter is blind underground, and can only see earthworms and other insects crawling in front of them.
"I heard from Senior Brother Neimen that in this mountain forest, the most dangerous thing is a peach forest, there are many peach children living in it, and where there are peach children, there is a miasma, and generally no one dares to approach. β
The so-called miasma is a kind of poisonous gas, but the miasma released by different monsters has different effects.
For the Toothed Tiger Beast, it is a strange beast of the five elements of fire, and its resistance to poisonous gas is not high, and there is only one way to avoid it when it encounters a thick miasma. If it is a strange beast of the five elements, not only will it not be poisoned, but it will also rely on miasma for cultivation.
Luo Jiangshang, Qi Guancheng and Huo Jun broke into the miasma, naturally because they were underground at this time, and the miasma was unlikely to affect the three of them. Moreover, Tao Yao itself is a very weak demon beast, so there is no need to be afraid of being discovered by them that someone is hiding underground.
Facts have also proved that their decision was correct.
It may be that the toothed tiger beast has tried the taste of miasma, or it may be that it has an innate instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages of miasma. As it pursued the trio, the Toothed Tiger Beast slowed down and hesitated to move on.
Seeing that it worked, Luo Jiangshang and the three of them accelerated their pace again.
But what they didn't expect was that a bigger crisis was quietly approaching the three of them.
