Chapter 76: Horror

Translator: 549690339

Roar!!

The giant tiger’s frenzied eyes seemed to sense the pervasive murderous intent, revealing a hint of struggle. In the midst of the struggle, a flicker of rationality flashed through, but it was instantly submerged.

The madness escalated, and the beast’s instincts were intensified to their extremes.

An evil wind suddenly rose, and the terrifying body of the giant tiger violently charged forward, first colliding with the late-arriving blade-light. The curvature of the crescent-like light collapsed the darkness of the night, only leaving a shallow bloodstain on the giant tiger’s body.

Next.

Clang, clang, clang!

Three pale golden long needles collided with the giant tiger’s body, making three gold-iron chiming sounds.

Immediately after, green sword light and pale golden sword light fell simultaneously, but shattered into countless spirit lights in an instant.

The colossal tiger-demon passed through the shattered spirit lights unscathed.

Gold-devouring insects crawled on its body, leaving only fine bloodstains on the tiger-demon’s body as they fell off after it shook vigorously.

A sword cry fell from the sky, accompanied by piercing sword light, like thunder from the heavens.

Perhaps it was the beast’s instinctual perception of danger, the tiger-demon suddenly raised its head. An invisible wave radiated from its blood-red, crazed eyes, directly confronting Chu Jinmo’s Spirit Sword.

Supernatural power – Eyes of Restraint!

The descending spirit light suddenly came to a halt, revealing the Sword Tool itself – a silver longsword struggling incessantly. Its initial awakening of intelligence was akin to a newborn infant, abruptly restrained without any success in resisting and appeared panicked and helpless.

Just at that moment, as the tiger-demon raised its head.

A silent shadow approached in a roundabout way. From below, it pierced upward, directly plunging into the tiger-demon’s throat.

Delighted that his pure Sword Control Skill had managed to conceal its presence, Han Yi’s expression immediately changed after.

The Shadowless Sword that had pierced into the giant tiger’s throat was stuck at the throat bone, unable to move even the slightest bit.

The tiger-demon looked back, its eyes completely ferocious and wild. The Shadowless Sword remained lodged in the throat, only its black hilt visible, hardly noticeable in the darkness of the night.

Roar!!

An earth-shattering tiger roar suddenly erupted.

This time, the tiger’s roar carried a terrifying demonic power, bearing down on everyone with even more madness reaching the point of insanity.

Everyone’s faces were filled with utter horror and disbelief.

In truth.

As soon as Liu Ke’s first blade-light left only a shallow bloodstain on the tiger-demon’s body, everyone’s faces had already been filled with immense horror.

Next.

Gold needles clanged to the ground, sword light shattered one after another, even the gold-devouring insects within the Upper-Grade Magic Tool, the Golden Cauldron, were only able to leave fine bloodstains on the tiger-demon’s body. At that moment, the terror of the crowd hit its peak.

Then, the supernatural power restrained the Spirit Sword, while the roar ensued.

Despite their full force, they were not even able to harm the giant tiger minimally.

Everyone was already aware of their impending defeat, with thoughts of fleeing emerging in their minds out of fear.

But at this moment, the space seemed to solidify. The returning gaze of the tiger-demon, with supernatural power still in its eyes, weighed on everyone like a mountain, immobilizing them.

In truth.

At that moment, the silver Spirit Sword in mid-air had already broken free from the restraint of the Eyes and regained its mobility. However, the Spirit Sword, recently nurtured with low intelligence, was fearful and dared not stab the tiger-demon again. Had it done so, the outcome might have been different.

The Spirit Sword let out a low cry, falling from the sky, as if a wronged child returning to the embrace of its family. It went straight into Chu Jinmo’s scabbard behind his back, quivering non-stop.

Just at that moment, gusts of evil wind swept across, and the tiger-demon pounced on.

Released from the power of the Eyes of Restraint, everyone looked frantically to the side, their faces full of shock.

Under the paws of the three-meter-tall tiger-demon, a person was half-submerged into the ground, with only a lone head remaining visible. The face was turned to one side, with its eyes still full of horror.

Fast, too fast, way too fast.

In the aftermath of the giant tiger’s earth-shattering roar, Liu Ke, with a Late Stage of Qi Cultivation, was already killed, standing at the farthest edge of the seven-person team with He Ze, who was practicing Sword Drawing Skill, similarly fallen.

From the moment the giant tiger landed until now, only around a breath and a half of time had passed.

Run!!

n

He Fengdi screamed, his voice almost changing.

As he cried out, his body shot towards the night, and he pulled out a spiritual talisman from his storage bag, pasting it onto himself. A flash of light passed, and he was already a hundred meters away.

At the same time.

The still alive Shen Ru and Li Yi also scattered and fled in opposite directions, using various means to rapidly reach their maximum speed.

However.

Faster than them was Chu Jinmo.

Before everyone turned around, the Spirit Sword behind her had already made a choice for her.

The Spirit Sword leaped out, hovering in the void. As Chu Jinmo saw the tragic situation on her side, she lightly jumped onto the Spirit Sword. Before taking off, she scanned around, and suddenly realized that Han Yi, who had just been by her side, was already a hundred meters away, not a bit slower than He Fengdi who had used a spiritual talisman.

Chu Jinmo’s momentary confusion was only brief as she quickly recovered. Without thinking further, the Spirit Sword soared into the sky, disappearing in an instant.

Sword Immortals, at the Qi Cultivation Stage, can use their Spirit Swords to fly.

Meanwhile, only a very few Late Stage of Qi Cultivation cultivators can use special magical tools to fly, and not as conveniently as Sword Immortals.

In the blink of an eye, the five of them fled in different directions.

This was the rule they had established long ago: if they encountered irresistible evil beasts or enemies, they would each flee for their lives.

On the other side.

The tiger monster that bit the person in its mouth in half roared again.

The Sword Tool in its throat and the bloody rage boiling inside its body made it constantly confused and without reason.

After a bit of destruction, the tiger monster seemed to catch a whiff of something and charged in a certain direction.

Ten breaths after the tiger monster disappeared.

Three figures appeared in the vicinity of the destroyed tree hole.

“Heh, this tiger monster is really useful.”

“Uncle An kept it in the Evil Mountain Range and didn’t expect it to be so effective one day.”

said the young man on the left.

“This tiger monster is not just an ordinary evil beast, but it has taken a big step towards becoming a Demon Cultivator. It’s not an exaggeration to call it a half-step Demon Cultivator. Uncle An kept it in the Evil Mountain Range to guard the spirit plant and also hoped that it would take that last step and become a Demon Cultivator.”

“Unfortunately, the spirit plant just happened to mature and coincide with the Xuandan Sect’s mission, so we had to sacrifice the tiger monster.”

“However, this Blood Soul Curse corrodes the flesh of the blood monster and pollutes its power, indirectly burning its life force, making it lose its mind. This plan can only last for a maximum of half a day.”

The young man on the right added.

The third young man, standing in the middle of the trio, wore a blood-red robe, had a calm face, and carried a blood-red Sword Tool on his back. He glanced at the two mutilated corpses on the ground and nodded:

“Enough.”

“Half a day is already enough. Tonight, we’ve already placed the lure near the gathered Xuandan Sect disciples. As it rushes over, it will kill some and scatter the rest. Next, it’s our hunting ground.”

The calm-faced young man took a few steps forward, looking over where Chu Jinmo had just stood and then looking up into the sky.

“However, there’s a Sword Immortal among the Xuandan Sect disciples.”

Upon mentioning the Sword Immortal, the calm-faced young man’s expression changed significantly.

“Brother Han, don’t worry. That Sword Immortal is only at the 7th level of Qi Cultivation. Even though they are the so-called first in killings among Sword Immortals, they might not necessarily be able to defeat someone from the 9th level, let alone someone like you at the peak of the 9th level. Even if they were at the Foundation Establishment stage, you wouldn’t be afraid.”

After finishing, the young man on the left looked puzzled.

“But isn’t the Sword Immortal’s legacy only found in that one place?”

“How could the Xuandan Sect have someone who is a Sword Immortal?”

The young man in the middle’s face turned calm again: “Let’s go. We are responsible for following the tiger monster in case of accidents. The other disciples who scattered from the Xuandan Sect will naturally be hunted down by our other brothers.”

“As for that Sword Immortal, it’s not as simple as you think. For now, just leave her alone.”

“And remember, if you encounter a Sword Immortal, you can kill but not humiliate. If a Sword Immortal is killed, it’s their own fault for not cultivating properly. But, if they are humiliated, people from that place will come out, and it won’t just be my bad luck, but the Blood God Sect’s as well.”

The two 9th level Blood God Sect cultivators on the left and the right nodded and followed the middle young man, quickly moving forward to catch up to the rampaging tiger monster..
