Chapter 70: Stabbing the Tiger

Tall and straight poplar trees, their leaves long gone, revealing ugly and withered branches.

On both sides of the poplar trees are the back walls of two households, with a passage no wider than a zhang.

Behind the tree is a large pile of randomly stacked firewood, completely blocking the road behind the tree.

Under the bright moonlight, Zhu Qimang quickly assessed the situation around the big tree.

There are obstacles all around, making the environment complex. Although the Iron Lin Demon Tiger is somewhat restricted, there is no gap for anyone to pass through.

In other words, this environment offers no advantage for her and Gao Xian to fight against the Iron Lin Demon Tiger!

In terms of combat, Gao Xian is still quite immature!

Zhu Qimang really wanted to ignore Gao Xian. This would be good for Gao Xian and for her.

Just as Zhu Qimang hesitated, Gao Xian spoke again: "Qimang, you stand under the tree. The demon tiger will enter through the gap between the two walls. I will ambush the demon tiger here. You use your spells to attack first."

He reached out from his shadowless robe and waved his hand to show Zhu Qimang his position, giving her a clear idea.

Zhu Qimang saw Gao Xian's hand and gained a bit more confidence.

Gao Xian's plan is rough and simple, but it is still a plan.

She thought about it and felt that it was acceptable, at least it wasn't reckless. If they fail with one strike, their fate is uncertain.

At this point, they don't have many choices.

The key is that Gao Xian disregarded the danger and risked his life to help. What else can she say?

Following the plan, Zhu Qimang arrived under the poplar tree. She held the Qingfrost Sword in one hand and a second-grade medium-tier Thunder Symbol in the other.

Among all the spells, Thunder Magic is the most powerful.

The term "Thunder Symbol" is a general term, and there are thousands of specific types. Only Thunder Magic symbols that can be drawn as symbols are called Thunder Symbols.

This is why she can activate the Thunder Symbol with her proficiency in Foundation Building and her mastery of the Green Wood Thunder Light Spear.

For other Qi Refining cultivators, it would be difficult for them to control the symbols. If they make a mistake, they might even injure themselves with the Thunder Symbol.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhu Qimang quickly focused her mind and prepared herself.

Gao Xian, wearing the shadowless robe, stood at the entrance between the two walls.

Based on the distance and direction, the Iron Lin Demon Tiger would definitely enter from here. He hid here to give the demon tiger a fierce blow.

Even if he couldn't kill the Iron Lin Demon Tiger, he would at least injure it.

Beasts are solitary creatures. Although they are fierce and powerful, they won't fight to the death with their prey.

Once injured, their first choice is definitely to escape.

Gao Xian had been in the mountains for dozens of days, and although he hadn't killed many beasts, he had some understanding of their habits.

This was also the only way he could think of to save Qimang.

The Iron Lin Demon Tiger is extremely fast, and it doesn't have many complicated thoughts. It only wants to tear apart the thing that carries the scent of its child!

It locked onto Zhu Qimang's position and found that the other party wasn't running away. This further stimulated its ferocity, and its speed increased once again.

Under the moonlight, the swiftly running Iron Lin Demon Tiger, with its huge and strong body, moved as lightly as a bird. With two leaps, it was already in front of Gao Xian.

Gao Xian was shocked. His Electric Dragon Hand had reached the Grandmaster level, and his speed was not weaker than Zhu Qimang's.

However, the Iron Lin Demon Tiger's leaping speed was even faster than his. It should be noted that the opponent's body is huge, weighing at least ten times more than him.

One can imagine how terrifying the strength of this demon tiger is.

He originally had little confidence, but seeing the ferocious and powerful posture of the demon tiger during its leap, he was almost scared away.

Fortunately, Lanjie appeared in his mind, and with the blessing of the Grandmaster-level Great Occult Art, Gao Xian was able to control his nervous and anxious emotions and enter a calm state as cold as ice.

At the same time, his sixth sense was greatly enhanced, and the Iron Lin Demon Tiger, which seemed faster than a bird in his eyes, seemed to slow down. The various details on the demon tiger's body also became clearer.

The undulating muscles combined strength and a smooth sense of beauty. The small triangular overlapping scales, the size of a child's palm, flowed like water with its movements. The blood-red pupils were extremely eerie and intimidating. The two rows of black and yellow teeth exposed in its mouth were as sharp as blades, and it had long black whiskers like a small cat...

Gao Xian's enhanced sense of smell was still active, and he could smell the strong stench emanating from the Iron Lin Demon Tiger, mixed with various complex smells such as the smell of blood.

Surprisingly, there was a faint connection between the scent on Zhu Qimang and the scent on the Iron Lin Demon Tiger.

This is not just a simple smell, but more like a special aura enhanced by magic.

That's why the Iron Lin Yao Hu is relentlessly chasing Qi Niang.

Gao Xian roughly figured out the reason why Qi Niang is being chased by the Yao Hu through his scent detection technique and the Great Puppet God's magic.

Time is urgent, and he doesn't have time to analyze the specific situation.

The most crucial thing now is to deal with the Iron Lin Yao Hu.

Obviously, the Iron Lin Yao Hu hasn't noticed his presence.

As a Grandmaster with the Shadowless Robe, he is very reliable.

Gao Xian tightly grips the hilt of the Stone-Cutting Sword. The Iron Lin Yao Hu's body is strong, and it is difficult for his magic power to threaten it. The sword is more reliable.

With the seventeen-pound Stone-Cutting Sword and the sharp gold runes, he doesn't believe that any flesh and blood can withstand a full-force strike!

Zhu Qi Niang is very skilled in combat. When she saw the Iron Lin Yao Hu fall, she immediately activated the Thunder Symbol.

The symbol turned into a blazing white lightning that directly struck the Iron Lin Yao Hu.

Thunder magic is the fastest and most powerful.

The Iron Lin Yao Hu realized that something was wrong but couldn't dodge in time, and was hit head-on by the lightning.

Amidst the thunderous roar, the intense heat released by the lightning melted more than half of the fine scales on the Iron Lin Yao Hu's forehead, and some of the flesh on its forehead was carbonized.

At the same time, a layer of dark green flames also ignited on the Iron Lin Yao Hu's body, enveloping it inside and out like a protective shield.

It was this layer of magical flame shield that blocked most of the power of the lightning magic.

Gao Xian, on the side, only then realized how powerful the Iron Lin Yao Hu's magic power was. The magical shield it emitted was so thick and solid that it could resist the Thunder Symbol.

In terms of magic power alone, the Iron Lin Yao Hu is at least ten times stronger than Zhu Qi Niang. The difference between them in terms of physical strength is even greater.

Fortunately, the Iron Lin Yao Hu lacks intelligence and doesn't know any spells or martial arts. It only fights based on its innate instincts, and its control over magic power is very crude and simple.

That's why it was injured by the Thunder Symbol.

Gao Xian marveled at the strength of the Iron Lin Yao Hu, but his determination to take action did not waver because of it.

While the Iron Lin Yao Hu was injured, it was the perfect opportunity for him to strike.

Just as Gao Xian was about to draw his sword, Zhu Qi Niang's second wave of Green Wood Thunder Spear had already shot towards the Iron Lin Yao Hu.

The Iron Lin Yao Hu, with half of its face burned black, suddenly opened its mouth and let out a loud roar.

The Iron Lin Yao Hu released all of its powerful magic power in the roar, and the roar itself had a terrifying impact.

In Gao Xian's eyes, the flame shockwave emitted by the Iron Lin Yao Hu's roar was like a transparent shell bombarding Zhu Qi Niang.

The five Green Wood Thunder Spears that were shot towards it were directly shattered into countless streams of light by the roar.

The protective Thick Earth Shield and the Profound Element Robe that Zhu Qi Niang had activated were instantly shattered by the roar. Zhu Qi Niang was also blasted away by the invisible shockwave, causing the firewood stack behind her to scatter and fly in all directions.

The tall white poplar tree bent backward in the roar, and the dry branches on the tree shattered into countless pieces and shot out like rain.

The walls on both sides vibrated and filled the air with countless dust and snow.

The roar of the Iron Lin Yao Hu was so powerful, but it was also highly directional, with about eighty percent of its strength directed towards Zhu Qi Niang.

However, Gao Xian was too close and couldn't avoid being affected.

In the midst of the tremendous roar, his Shadowless Robe undulated like water ripples, revealing his figure.

The Grandmaster-level Shadowless Robe was exceptionally solid. Although it couldn't conceal Gao Xian's figure, it blocked the residual shockwave from the roar.

Gao Xian, who was under the control of Lan Jie's divine consciousness, was not intimidated by the roar of the Iron Lin Yao Hu. His sword strike was almost unaffected.

The Iron Lin Yao Hu's red pupils turned, and it had already seen Gao Xian beside it. Its red pupils suddenly dilated, apparently startled by Gao Xian's sudden appearance!

At this critical moment, Gao Xian didn't hesitate and immediately drew his sword to stab.

The Iron Lin Yao Hu had just released most of its magic power, so the red flame around its body was very dim.

It had just stretched its neck and roared, causing the scales on its neck to open up cracks.

The seventeen-pound Stone-Cutting Sword turned into a snow-colored sword light, directly aimed at the Iron Lin Yao Hu's neck!
