Immortal Refiner

"Brother, you are finally back. I thought you had an accident!"

Li Qing had just returned to the fire when he heard Old Man Sun's voice.

The campfire was still strong. Old Man Sun used the vines on the ground to build a hammock for himself between two trees. It looked quite comfortable.

"I explored the surrounding area. Nothing happened. It's quite peaceful." Li Qing replied calmly.

"That's good, let's stay alone for half the night. You have to be careful when spending the night in this old forest."

Li Qing nodded and agreed to the proposal. If both of them fell asleep, their ability to resist risks would be too low. If a poisonous snake or beast attacked, it would be tragic.

Amidst the crackling sound of dry wood burning in the fire, Li Qing sat down cross-legged and practiced the two martial arts of Golden Body Technique and Turtle Breathing Technique at the same time.

While practicing, his perception of the outside world has not weakened at all, and no disturbance around him can escape his ears.

In this way, Li Qing and Old Man Sun stayed alone for half the night, and the sky finally dimmed.

Tick ​​tock!

A drop of dew fell from the leaves on Li Qing's eyebrows, and he opened his eyes.

This time when they went up the mountain, the two brought enough dry food and dried meat. After a simple meal, they started looking for traces of the tiger again.

...

While exploring the mountains and forests, Old Man Sun seemed to have discovered some useful clues. He followed some imperceptible traces and left the mountain col where the tomb was located.

Finally, under a tree trunk, Old Man Sun stopped.

The bottom of this tree trunk has many marks scratched by sharp claws. It is obvious at a glance that a beast lives here.

"It's either a blind bear or a tiger. Brother, you must be careful next time." Old Man Sun reminded solemnly.

Li Qing's face also became serious, and of course he did not dare to take it lightly.

Whether it is a blind bear or a fierce tiger, they are both very difficult to deal with.

It's spring now, and Blind Bear has just woken up from hibernation. He is in the hungriest state and will be very ferocious.

Needless to say, tigers can effectively lie dormant in the mountains and forests, and even experienced hunters may not be able to detect them immediately.

If you are not prepared to be attacked by a sneak attack, it will be life-threatening.

The two began to explore the forest, being extremely careful and checking out the surroundings with every step they took.

Li Qing's hands are always on his waist. If there is a situation, he can draw out the broad-bladed knife as quickly as possible, or take out the bone-penetrating nails on his body to deal with the situation.

Old Man Sun's weapon was only a wooden bow, and he didn't even have a few arrows. He knew very well that his mission was only to search, not to hunt.

"etc!"

Old Man Sun raised his hand, then bent down and looked at a pile of feces covered by bushes.

"It was pulled by a tiger. There are definitely tigers here!"

Just as he finished speaking, a shrill roar came from the depths of the mountain forest.

"Roar!"

Hearing this sound, even if Li Qing didn't understand hunting, he would know that it was the roar of a tiger!

"Walk!"

Li Qing made a quick decision and rushed towards the source of the sound. He held a broad-bladed knife in one hand and two bone-penetrating nails in the other hand.

Seeing how decisive Li Qing was, Old Man Sun looked a little frightened, but he still followed.

He did hunt a tiger when he was young, but it was just an inexperienced cub that he caught using a trap, not an adult tiger yet.

Generally speaking, hunters will never consider beasts like tigers as prey.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!"..

The roar of the tiger is still shocking the entire mountain forest, and the birds in the canopy are frightened and fly up, which shows the power of this king of the mountain!

As the roar of the tiger grew louder, both Li Qing and Old Man Sun slowed down.

The closer they got, the more frightened the two of them were. This was definitely a tiger in its prime, terrifying and ferocious.

Li Qing opened the dense branches and leaves in front of him, and the tiger that Li Qing had been waiting for finally appeared in front of him.

It was a tiger's nest made of piled rubble. When the two of them saw the scene there clearly, their scalps almost exploded.

I saw a fierce tiger confronting a giant python in the tiger's den.

And under the giant python, there were actually several tiger cubs, which looked lifeless.

No wonder the tiger's roar was so shrill and angry. It turned out to be a tigress that had lost its son.

Obviously, this tiger that exudes a ferocious aura does not intend to let the giant python go, but wants to fight to the death with the giant python here.

The size of the giant python is also a bit exaggerated. Its waist is as thick as a bucket. Half of its body is still hidden behind the tiger's den, and its head and tail are nowhere to be seen.

"Wait!" Li Qing immediately made a decision and wanted to be a profitable fisherman.

After the two ferocious beasts decided the winner, he would take action to clean up the mess.

He is only a warrior at the level of external strength, not yet a master of internal strength. It would be a bit fanciful to deal with two such ferocious beasts at once, so he can only wait for the opportunity.

"Roar!"

The tiger that had lost its son was the first to move. In a few seconds, it jumped high from the gravel and rushed towards the giant python.

This is a huge green-scaled python, and the weird markings on its body make people tremble in their hearts just looking at it.

Its body snaked backwards, dodging the tiger's attacks. Despite its size, its speed in the forest was not slow at all. It knocked down bushes as it moved, and was able to ignore most terrain obstacles. .

However, no matter how fast the python is, it is not faster than the tiger.

The fierce tiger pounced on the python and slapped it hard with its powerful claws.

With a swish, many scales fell off, and several white marks suddenly appeared on the python.

The python had no way to retreat, so it immediately bent its body and tried to wrap around the tiger.

But the tiger was very agile and nimble. It dodged the python's entanglement in a bounce, and then rushed forward again, biting the python's body viciously.

Whoosh!

The python took advantage of the situation and pulled out its tail. There was a sound of breaking wind, and the tiger was pulled out.

The two sides pulled away for a distance and began to confront each other again.

The python spit out its tongue lightly, and its body slowly retreated. There were many scars on its body from being torn by the tiger.

However, the tiger didn't seem to want to let the python go easily. It regarded the giant python as a serious threat. It stepped forward, opened its bloody mouth, and approached the python.

Li Qing, who was hiding in the forest, saw this kind of wild tiger for the first time in his life.

He had practiced the tiger's true intention before. After watching the tiger's fight, his understanding of this martial art deepened a lot.

While the tiger and the giant python were fighting again, Li Qing took a deep breath, put down the broad blade, and swung his body slightly, imitating some of the tiger's movements.

After watching for a long time, Li Qing also understood more moves of the tiger's true intention, which was something he had never developed before when practicing this martial art.

After a long time, the battle between the tiger and the giant python was decided.

The huge python was exhausted to death by the tiger, with holes all over its body and fine scales scattered all over the ground.

The tiger was not much better off, with wounds all over its body. When it finally killed the python, the python entangled its hind legs, causing its leg bones to break.

Now is the best opportunity to hunt the tiger!
