Chapter 140: Enlightening Stage Spiritual Beast (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Not long ago, they had personally witnessed more than ten Long Breath Stage cultivators being torn to pieces by that terrifying tiger demon. The scene was as b.l.o.o.d.y and cruel as a nightmare!
Had it not been for the flying spiritual beast, they would have become a part of the scattered flesh on the ground as well!
Even so, they couldn’t let out a breath of relief just yet.
After all, the white-eyed spirit tiger of the Ascension Stage could ride the wind. The Enlightenment Stage tiger demon was definitely capable enough to do that.
Time was of the essence here. That terrifying tiger demon might catch up with them at any moment!
If possible, they couldn’t wait to teleport back to Dragonside City.
However, at the girl’s words, the owner of the flying spiritual beast smiled bitterly.
“I want to move faster, but the tripod eagle is injured and can’t move fast enough.”
The girl was baffled. She looked down and saw a few b.l.o.o.d.y cuts on the eagle’s belly and right wing. It was a ghastly sight.
It was a miracle that the bird could still fly this far.
Seeing this, the girl was rendered speechless and looked frustrated.
The other teenager tried to comfort her.
“Don’t worry. We’ll be able to leave Dragon Abyss Mountain once we’re over this mountain. I don’t believe that that tiger demon will dare to leave the area…”
As soon as he said that, there was a rumbling sound.
In the distance, a streak of white wind tore through the sky like a streak of lightning and headed their way.
The three of them felt a suffocating sensation in their chests and heard the howling wind in their ears. When they came back to themselves and looked over their shoulders, they were shocked to find a giant tiger demon with wings on its back.
“Do you think you can get away from me?”
The tiger demon grinned maliciously at the pale-faced trio.
“If I, Bai Teng, let the three of you escape, I’ll become a laughing stock!”
Those cold words shattered the girl’s last bit of hope. She suddenly screamed, jumped off the eagle’s back, and charged at Bai Teng.
“I’m gonna kill you!”
“Fighting to the death is something only the capable ones are qualified to do. You’re not worth it!”
Bai Teng laughed. With a wave of his hand, he caught the girl and her sword between his palms. He then closed his fingers.
There was a m.u.f.fled sound like an exploding ball of water. The girl didn’t even have time to scream before her upper body was crushed into a pulp!
“Isn’t that too easy a death for you?”
Throwing away the dead body as if it was garbage, Bai Teng grinned at the pale-faced teenagers.
However, he then looked down at Lin Shen, who was fighting the white-eyed spirit tigers. There was an intrigued look in his eyes.
“Forget it. That kid down there looks more interesting. I’d better get rid of you as soon as possible and go have some fun!”
As soon as he said those words, the two teenagers were overwhelmed by a sense of fear. Unfortunately, before they could react, they felt a sharp pain in their heads, and they lost consciousness forever.
After casually smashing their heads and killing the tripod eagle, Bai Teng looked down at Lin Shen.
As soon as Bai Teng stopped the three people in mid-air, Lin Shen felt a sense of crisis.
Even from hundreds of meters away, he could sense the lethal threat coming from that tiger demon.
It was a sense of crisis that Ascension Stage spiritual beasts couldn’t create!
There was no doubt that it was an Enlightening Stage spiritual beast!
Without hesitation, Lin Shen picked up his speed and fled out of the Dragon Abyss Mountain. Even when the tigers caught up with him, he didn’t turn around to fend them off. Instead, he used Forbidden Golden Armor and Bind Yang Gown to withstand the attacks and even used the momentum to speed up!
In the blink of an eye, Lin Shen was over the top of the mountain. In the distance, he could already make out the stone tablet at the border of the Dragon Abyss Mountain.
“Well, he’s not bad at all. He’s a little better than those useless people!”
Bai Teng grinned. With a flap of his wings, he charged out like a bolt of lightning and arrived behind Lin Shen in the blink of an eye. His sharp claws tore through the air and struck down at Lin Shen’s back with an ear-splitting sonic boom!
Lin Shen’s scalp went numb, but he didn’t have time to dodge and was struck on the back by the tiger’s claws!
A layer of white light instantly lit up, and it was the light of the Protection Talisman, but it soon dissipated!
Immediately after that, dim yellow light lit up, and the Bind Yang Gown was activated.
This time, the light lasted a little longer before it dimmed.
The last one was the dark golden glow of the Forbidden Golden Armor.
Thump!
With a dull thump, Lin Shen flew away like a kite with its string cut.
However, Bai Teng didn’t look happy at all. Instead, he frowned and realized that something wasn’t right.
For a split second, he didn’t feel like he had hit flesh and blood, but an indestructible iron armor!
When he looked up again, he saw that Lin Shen had adjusted his position before she knew it. He rolled around after he hit the ground, then got up and kept running.
That strike didn’t injure him!
Seeing this, Bai Teng was surprised at first, then furious. He shouted and ran after Lin Shen.
“An Enlightening Stage spiritual beast is indeed very capable!”
As he ran, Lin Shen tried his best to adjust his breathing and calm the surging blood in his chest.
The faint pain on his back made him have lingering fears.
If his Forbidden Golden Armor hadn’t reached Perfection, he would have been severely injured even if he didn’t die!
When that happened, even if he summoned his clones, he would probably not be able to defeat that terrifying tiger demon.
However, after being clawed by the tiger demon, the Bind Yang Gown had already been damaged. Without some repair, he wouldn’t be able to use it for the time being.
There were still quite a few Protection Talismans left. However, they and the Forbidden Golden Armor alone wouldn’t be able to withstand the tiger demon’s second strike.
“It’s a pity that the Forbidden Golden Armor hasn’t reached the Path stage. Otherwise, it would be much easier to escape!”
At this critical moment, Lin Shen quickly had an idea.
A sharp whistle quickly came from behind, accompanied by a pressure that was so heavy that it made one’s heart palpitate.
Bai Teng’s speed was astonishing. In the blink of an eye, he was less than five meters behind Lin Shen.
What Lin Shen did just now made Bai Teng rather angry. He decided not to show mercy anymore and wanted to crush this d.a.m.ned human with the crudest method.
Amidst the ear-piercing sound of the air being torn apart, Bai Teng claw grabbed fiercely at Lin Shen’s back!
It was foreseeable that once Lin Shen was caught, he would have his heart ripped out!
“Go to h.e.l.l!”
Bai Teng laughed sinisterly and growled.
But at this moment, Lin Shen, who was running with his head lowered, suddenly turned around and slapped out with his palm.
A dazzling scarlet light instantly appeared, quickly condensing into a huge hand that was ten feet tall. Carrying an incomparably mighty aura and surging heat waves, it crushed down on Bai Teng like an avalanche!
Bai Teng didn’t expect Lin Shen to have such a move. He was completely unprepared and was caught off guard by the huge red hand. As the fire waves that filled the sky dissipated, his tall body was directly blasted into the ground!
Instantly, dust rose from all directions.
“ROAR!”
In just a few seconds, there was a deafening roar.
A strong wind blew, instantly blowing away the dust in the sky.
In the middle of the charred ground that was covered in cracks, Bai Teng roared at the sky. His body emitted a ferocious aura that soared into the sky.
One could see that his back was charred black. He had been injured by the attack just now.
“A Path stage martial technique! d.a.m.n that human kid!”
Ever since he had advanced to the Enlightening Stage, Bai Teng had never suffered such a huge loss at the hands of a mere Long Breath Stage cultivator. He was shocked and furious.
In his anger, a pale wind instantly swept up around him, howling as he rushed in the direction Lin Shen had left.
Unfortunately, with this delay, Lin Shen had already rushed out of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range.
After leaving the forest, he immediately summoned the Giant-horned Deer and rushed toward Dragonside City.
Swoosh!
The violent wind stopped at the stone tablet at the border of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range and dissipated with a bang, revealing Bai Teng’s figure.
His eyes were red as he glared at Lin Shen in the distance. His expression changed for a moment, but in the end, he didn’t dare to walk out of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range.
There were cultivator masters patrolling within a 50-kilometer radius of Dragonside City all year round. If he dared to step out of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range, he would probably be discovered in no time.
A cultivator master could arrive in a few breaths and kill him without breaking a sweat!
Although Bai Teng was angry, he hadn’t lost his mind. Naturally, he was unwilling to sacrifice his life for a mere human brat.
“d.a.m.n human brat, you’d better not let me see you again. Otherwise, I’ll definitely tear you into pieces!”
His angry roar resounded in the wilderness..
