Chapter 28: Hunting the Demonic Beast

  A strange rock formation stood upright, with a steep cliff that plunged into the depths, its bottom nowhere to be seen. The cliff stretched out endlessly in all directions, disappearing into the distance, and from time to time, birds flew swiftly by overhead.

  This is precisely the Thousand Cliff Precipice!

  On the edge of a dense forest not far from Qian Duan Cliff, three figures sat in a circle, opening their bundles and eating something.

  Among them, a gray-clothed youth stuffed food into his mouth and muttered: "Why do we have to run so far? Qian Duan Cliff is so big, we are near Qian Ya Sect, can't we hunt and kill monsters there too?"

  These three figures were none other than Ye Fei and his two companions who had rushed all the way from Qian Ya Sect half a year ago.

  "Hehe, Liu Gan, you just eat your food well. Brother Ye said to come here, definitely has a purpose, and this place is relatively close to Wu Hua Town. The terrain here we are more familiar with."

  Although this Thousand Cliff is very large, near the Thousand Cliff Sect, some low-level demon beasts are estimated to have been cleaned up by other fellow disciples. What about our share?" Wan Feng said with a smile.

  Upon hearing this, Liu Gan wiped his mouth and reluctantly said: "Alright, I've boarded your pirate ship. Wherever you want to go, I'll accompany you!"

  "Actually, I came here for another purpose, which is to find a friend." Ye Fei put the food back into his bag and said to the two of them.

  "Oh? Friend? After such a long time without seeing each other, I'm afraid this friend of yours is more likely to be bad news than good." Wan Feng was taken aback for a moment before saying so.

  At this time, the three of them had also finished eating and each packed up their own bundles.

  "It won't die, I believe it's still alive!" Ye Fei said, his eyes gazing somewhat absent-mindedly into the distance.

  "Right, are we going down or not? Jin Xun said it's very dangerous below, and there's that nuclear beast too." He pointed to the distant Thousand Cliff Break.

  After a moment's thought, Ye Fei shook his head and said, "Let's not go down. If something happens, we won't be able to escape easily."

  "What's next?" Wan Feng asked Ye Fei, although he was also a person from Wuhua Town and had entered Qian Duan Cliff before. However, when he met Ye Fei, the latter had returned from Qian Duan Cliff, so he should have some understanding of it.

  Moreover, Wan Feng has always been puzzled to this day that Ye Fei can transmit sound to himself, and he always feels that Ye Fei is not as simple as he appears on the surface. If Ye Fei hadn't transmitted sound to discuss countermeasures with him that time, he would probably have been killed by Hu Shuang long ago.

  "We don't need to go deep, this outer area also often has some demonic beasts appearing, but we need to discuss a strategy first..." Looking around at the nearby dense forest, Ye Fei and the other two began to deliberate.

  …………

  A loud roar echoed out!

  A yellow and white striped tiger stared at a rhino with scars all over its body in front of it, let out a loud roar, then crouched down and pounced on the rhino with a swoosh.

  The poor rhinoceros was clearly a fierce beast, but it couldn't compete with the somewhat intelligent and cultivating demon tiger. Although this tiger looked like it was only in the Qi Refining stage, its innate ferocity gave it an overwhelming advantage.

  Two tiger claws grasped the rhino's leg, and with a strong pull, a large piece of skin and flesh was torn off, even sharper than usual. The rhino, on the other hand, shook its entire body, having just used its horn to butt the tiger's body.

  At the sight, the tiger's eyes were wide open, its huge mouth opened, and it bit down on the rhinoceros' neck. Fresh red blood spurted out like a burst dam, and the rhinoceros only trembled a few times before falling to the ground, never to wake up again.

  The striped giant tiger had a delicious meal, stretched lazily with satisfaction, and was about to head towards the Thousand Cliff direction when suddenly its ears perked up as if listening to something.

  In a short while, a young man in white clothes, slender and thin, appeared in the line of sight of the spotted tiger.

  He carefully sized up the young man for a moment, and didn't launch any attack, as if he felt that the young man posed no threat to him. Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he let out a loud roar.

  Roar

  The tiger's front paws slapped the ground, its two hind legs exerted force and it sprang towards the youth with a burst of speed.

  Seeing this, the white-clothed youth flashed a white light under his feet and turned to run towards the dense forest, but the spotted tiger's speed was obviously faster. Just as it was about to catch up with the youth, suddenly, the youth's body leaped up and darted into the forest.

  Seeing this, the striped tiger seemed to become more ferocious, a roar came out of its mouth, and with a swoop, it followed the young man into the dense forest.

  In the woods, a giant tiger with spotted fur looked around suspiciously with its eyes, not seeing anyone's shadow, and couldn't help but get a little furious. Suddenly, it saw a white flash in front of it, and the spotted tiger darted forward at once.

  Whoosh!

  A cold, blue-green sword flashed, and a gleam shot towards the tiger's head. Seeing this, the giant tiger seemed to have anticipated it, and easily dodged with a swing of its body. It then pounced towards the white-clothed youth in front of it.

  Bang bang bang, three small fireballs shot out, but the boy's figure didn't move. However, his eyes showed some tension.

  The striped giant tiger looked slightly disdainful, its body paused for a moment, without any intention of dodging, and simply stretched out its tiger claws to pat the three small fireballs away.

  Suddenly, just as the tiger stopped moving, a silver long spear suddenly emerged from the ground and stabbed towards the tiger's abdomen.

  Seeing this, the spotted tiger's eyes showed a hint of fear and its body flashed to the side.

  Pfft

  Whoosh

  A silver long spear pierced the striped tiger's chest, not fatal, but just as the tiger was dodging to one side, another three-foot-long bronze short blade flashed out from a certain tree and accurately stabbed into the tiger's back. It was as if the tiger had delivered itself to the door.

  "Ahhh!"

  A mournful cry, the striped giant tiger's body shook a few times, and with a loud thud, it heavily fell to the ground, its eyes filled with intense unwillingness.

  "Haha, succeeded! Too good!" As soon as the words fell, a gray figure flashed out from the tree that had just launched the attack, and landed on the ground with a thud. Another purple cypress youth also fell from another tree. Together with the white-clothed youth, there were exactly three people.

  It was Ye Fei, Wan Feng and Liu Qian, and this plan was also devised by Ye Fei.

  "Liu Gan, don't be too happy yet. Take a look at this, it's just a tiger in the Qi Refining stage, equivalent to our fifth or sixth layer of Qi Refining. Although it's a bit difficult for one person to deal with, but for us three people to kill such a low-level demon beast, there's nothing to be excited about."

  Besides, if it weren't for Brother Ye's ability to discover this demon tiger ahead of time, how would we have had the time to plan this operation?" said Wan Feng.

  "Haha, that's true, but there's another thing, if it wasn't for Brother Ye's Ling Step technique, if we were the ones to lure that old tiger, I'm afraid we would have been swallowed by it in one bite." Liu Gan looked at Ye Fei and chuckled.

  This operation can be said to have been carried out seamlessly, with no flaws in the timing of the attack, the angle, or the ambush tactics.

  "Hey, let's not talk about it anymore, just put him away for now." Ye Fei said to Liu Gan with a somewhat pleased expression.

  "Alas, what a pity for these tiger claws. They're so sharp and hard, they must be able to forge some kind of treasure. Unfortunately, we don't know how," said the evening wind with some regret.

  Upon hearing this, Liu Gan put the demon tiger's corpse into a storage bag he had prepared beforehand, shook his head and smiled mysteriously. "Two senior brothers, in this regard, you are not as knowledgeable as me, right? I've heard from some of our fellow disciples that our Qian Ya Sect has a place called 'Treasured Devices Pavilion' where if one has good materials, the pavilion's master craftsmen can refine a fine magical device for them. Of course, the price is also quite expensive."

  "What? If that's the case, we don't necessarily have to hand over all our gains." Ye Fei said thoughtfully.

  In the following days, the three of them almost started a guerrilla war, but never dared to go deep, only hunting low-level demon beasts on the periphery. They also encountered high-level demon beasts twice, both times Ye Fei sensed it in advance and they slipped away, escaping disaster.

  Unconsciously, the two Wanfengs also became more convinced of Ye Fei, with a subtle look of admiration. Also because of Ye Fei's sake, they killed several low-level demon beasts.

  On this day, the three of them gathered in the woods, and while they were eating, Ye Fei suddenly changed his expression and exclaimed: "Not good, there's a Nuclear Stage demonic beast!" (End of chapter)
