Chapter 8: Snatching Food from the Tiger's Mouth
Chen Li was breathing heavily. The sword just now had drained all the spiritual energy from his body. Now he couldn't even hold the sword.
It has to be said that the power of this sword is really great. I am afraid that even a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage may not be able to take it.
This move cannot be used casually. It consumes so much energy that it can only be used as a hidden killer move.
Chen Li was also very curious about this move. A sword move that was inspired by a desperate situation could have such great power.
If I could master this move thoroughly, wouldn't I be able to kill higher-level enemies?
Before that, you still have to improve your strength first.
This sword almost drained everything. If I don’t improve my strength, it will be difficult to deal with it when the time comes.
He looked around and found that the golden-horned rhinoceros had disappeared. It was probably taking advantage of the time when he was fighting the man in black to escape.
Now I still have to replenish my spiritual energy before I can deal with the golden-horned rhinoceros.
After checking the storage bag of the man in black, Chen Li also showed a look of surprise on his face.
He actually had ten spirit stones on him.
It’s just right to absorb and restore your own spiritual energy.
Afterwards, he found a remote cave, placed the spirit stones in front of himself, sat cross-legged, and began to absorb spiritual energy.
As for Lin Rui and others, he was not in the mood to care about them. After all, they had no connection with him and there was no point in caring about them.
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
Chen Li looked at the shattered transparent stone in front of him, with a look of helplessness on his face.
The spiritual energy of the ten spirit stones has been drained away. Although the spiritual energy in the body has been restored, his cultivation has not improved much.
It seems that we still have to focus on the monsters.
Thinking about this, Chen Li got up and left the cave.
"Roar!"
A tiger roar resounded throughout the forest, causing Chen Li to immediately shift his gaze to a direction not far away.
Although the target is the golden-horned rhinoceros, judging from the tiger's roar, the other party is definitely a demon beast, and its cultivation is not low. So he should kill this demon beast first. In this way, his own cultivation can be greatly improved.
With a thought in his mind, he rushed directly towards the monster not far away.
When he arrived here, a big smile appeared on his face.
A tiger with black fur all over its body, extremely long fangs, and a ball of black flame on its tail, looks very creepy.
Black Flame Demonic Tiger!
At the same time, opposite the Black Flame Demon Tiger was a dying golden-horned rhinoceros.
Wow, I originally just wanted to kill this tiger-shaped monster, but I didn’t expect to kill two birds with one stone.
It seems that this time not only can the mission be completed, but the sect's mission can also be completed. It is simply the best of both worlds.
The golden-horned rhinoceros had no strength left and its blood was constantly flowing.
The Black Flame Demon Tiger rushed forward and bit through the body of the Golden Horned Rhinoceros with its sharp fangs.
After the golden-horned rhinoceros was killed, the black flame demon tiger was planning to enjoy this delicious meal, but the next moment a figure appeared in front of it.
The Black Flame Demon Tiger's strength was at the eighth level of Qi training, and it had already developed intelligence . After sensing the danger, it moved away from the corpse and avoided the opponent's attack.
Chen Li was quite surprised. He had already concealed his aura and planned to take the enemy by surprise, but he was still discovered.
The Black Flame Demon Tiger stared at Chen Li with a fierce look in his eyes. He was courting death by daring to snatch food from the mouth of the king of the forest.
"Roar!"
The Black Flame Demon Tiger roared angrily and rushed towards Chen Li.
He tried to dodge, but the Black Flame Demon Tiger swept its tail and the black flames were like maggots on the tarsal bones, making it difficult to avoid.
Chen Li dodged left and right, and when he finally avoided the black flames, a huge figure appeared in his sight.
It was the Black Flame Demonic Tiger.
It raised its huge claws and slapped Chen Li directly.
The slap made Chen Li take several steps back.
If it weren't for his strengthened body, this slap would have made him vomit blood.
He touched his aching body, spat out the blood in his mouth, and his eyes gradually became sharp.
When the Black Flame Demon Tiger saw that Chen Li was so weak, it did not attack him. It looked as if it was playing a joke on him.
A mere monster dares to provoke him, it is simply seeking death.
Chen Li took a deep breath, rushed forward, and slashed down with his sword, but was swept away by the Black Flame Demon Tiger's tail.
He took several steps back, felt a slightly sweet taste in his throat, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, making his face paler.
The Black Flame Demon Tiger stood there without any movement. It seemed that this guy was more powerful than he thought.
Even so, being mocked by a monster was something Chen Li absolutely could not tolerate.
He gripped the sword tightly, took a deep breath, and let himself relax.
After the enlightenment of the sword two days ago, he was now able to release the sword intent field.
However, with his current cultivation level, he can only sustain it for the duration of an incense stick, and the range is only five meters.
Now the distance between Chen Li and the Black Flame Demon Tiger is exactly five meters. If he wants to kill the other party, he can only use the sword intent field.
He released his spiritual energy, and no sword-shaped mark appeared on his forehead. Instead, his eyes gradually changed from black to light gold.
Holding the sword in his hand, he took a sudden step forward.
Originally, the Black Flame Demon Tiger was still lazy and planned to kill the human in front of it after having enough fun. However, when it relaxed, it suddenly found that Chen Li had disappeared.
The Black Flame Demon Tiger's hair stood up immediately, as its beast's instinct told it that this human was extremely dangerous.
In an instant, Chen Li was standing behind the Black Flame Demon Tiger and slashed it with a sword.
This sword contained a strong spiritual energy, which left a deep sword mark on the body of the Black Flame Demon Tiger.
"Roar!"
The Black Flame Demon Tiger roared angrily, and its tail with black flames swept directly over Chen Li.
However, it found that this sweep did not hit Chen Li.
Because Chen Li was already standing in front of it, he punched it directly.
boom!
The Black Flame Demon Tiger fell to the ground, its breath weak.
It couldn't figure out why the human being, who was like a toy just now, had become so terrifying.
During this period of time, Chen Li's figure kept flashing, making it completely impossible for the Black Flame Demon Tiger to attack him. Instead, Chen Li left many sword marks on the Black Flame Demon Tiger's body.
"No, I won't be able to hold on if this goes on. I must give it a fatal blow." Chen Li gritted his teeth, feeling the depletion of the spiritual energy in his body. If this continued, he would be killed by the Black Flame Demon Tiger.
At this moment, Chen Li suddenly discovered that there was a faint light spot on the back of the Black Flame Demon Tiger's neck.
Could it be there?
Chen Li made up his mind, poured his own spiritual energy into the sword, and stabbed it down suddenly.
The sword pierced through the Black Flame Demon Tiger's neck directly. The Black Flame Demon Tiger didn't even have time to resist. Its eyes rolled back and it lost its life.
Looking at the Black Flame Demon Tiger that had lost its breath of life, Chen Li breathed heavily and almost thought he was going to die here.
Obviously, I was the one who went to launch a sneak attack on the Black Flame Demon Tiger, but in the end I was so exhausted. I still have to hone my skills.
Chen Li looked at the two monsters in front of him without hesitation. He first dripped the blood of the golden-horned rhinoceros into the token.
After the token flashed a green light, Chen Li nodded with satisfaction.
The mission is accomplished.
Afterwards, he started to build a fire and roasted the Black Flame Demon Tiger and the Golden Horned Rhinoceros.
After it was roasted, Chen Li ate all the meat.
After swallowing the monster meat, Chen Li suddenly felt as if his body was being burned by flames, making his whole body hot.
Every breath he exhaled was hot, and the spiritual energy around his body continued to spread, making him happy .
After eating so many monsters, Chen Like was very clear about this phenomenon. This was the rhythm of a breakthrough.
He sat cross-legged and began to guide the spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy flowed along the meridians and then poured into the sea of qi. Although some of it was distributed to the strange light spot, Chen Li was no longer surprised.
If all of this spiritual energy flowed into Chen Li's qi sea, he would probably not be able to absorb it all, and would explode and die.
After gradually adapting to the spiritual energy, Chen Li felt dizzy, as if there was a memory that did not belong to him gradually pouring into his mind.
It was still that strange training ground, with a figure who looked like Chen Li standing there.
He held a long sword in his hand, and the spiritual energy around him continued to spread. The sword intent field spread to hundreds of meters away. The long sword was unsheathed and he began to dance with the sword.
Each move was extremely fierce, each one was a killing move, and they were so fast that a complete set of sword moves was performed in a flash.
Click.
The originally intact wooden stake turned into countless small pieces in an instant.
The sword moves seemed to be engraved in Chen Li's mind, and every move was very clear.
"Thunder Sky Sword, is this the name of this sword move?"
Chen Li muttered to himself, never expecting that such a powerful move would appear in his mind.
Could all this have something to do with that strange light spot?
He didn't believe that this was a technique he came up with on a whim.
Huh? Breakthrough!
Chen Li suddenly woke up and realized that he had achieved a breakthrough just by watching a set of sword moves.
The eighth level of Qi training.
Not only did he achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation, he also acquired a set of powerful swordsmanship. This way, dealing with those enemies would be a piece of cake.
He immediately stood up, holding his sword, and couldn't wait to learn that set of sword moves.
What shocked him was that the sword skills in his memory were very coherent, but when he performed them himself, they were completely incoherent.
Every time he made a move, he could feel his bones creaking, as if he was consuming a lot of energy.
After just a few incoherent moves, Chen Li felt like he was about to collapse.
He sat on the ground, breathing heavily. It seemed that this set of sword skills must be honed over a long period of time, otherwise it would be difficult to apply it in battle.
But not now, because the task time given this time is only one month. Chen Li saw that the words on the token were becoming blurred, and the time limit was about to be exceeded.
The most urgent task is not to practice swordsmanship here, but to return to Nanli Sect to complete the task.
After returning to the residence, I will practice swordsmanship.
Thinking this in his mind, he left the mountain range directly and hurried back to Nanli Sect.
When he arrived at the gate of Nanli Sect, he saw an uninvited guest appear in his sight.
Why is this guy here?
