C12 Slaying Tiger(part I)
Tiger Slayer.
Different from Ye Zhifa's previous life, this place was filled with dense spiritual energy and magical powers.
If a cultivator like him were to open up the spirit vein and refine his magical energy, however, he would not be an ordinary person. Beasts and birds were the same. There was a cross bone on their necks. If they could remove the horizontal bone, they could become demons. Their future development would be even more unimaginable.
In the past two years in the Zhehua Sword Palace, besides cultivating, Ye Zhifa had also read a lot of ancient books. In terms of experience, he was no longer the same as yesterday's Amon, but he had never really understood the matter of this ferocious beast transforming into a demon. He hurriedly asked Di Quji.
After Di Quji's explanation, Ye Zhifa found out that this moonlight flow had a lot to do with the step of transforming into a demon. As long as the white tiger could bathe under the moonlight for a few hours tonight, it would be able to break through the limits of an ordinary beast. From then on, it would become a demon that roared in heaven and earth.
"You mean, we must find the white tiger before the moon rises?"
"That's right. If the white tiger successfully breaks through, the two of us will definitely not be its match. At that time, even if we can find reinforcements, it will be too late to stop the tiger demon from slaughtering here."
Di Quji's cultivation base was only on par with Ye Zhifa's. Even if the two of them joined forces, they still wouldn't be able to defeat a tiger demon with magic power.
If they wanted to defeat him, they could only do so before the white tiger transformed into a demon!
"Alright, I will definitely find it before sunset."
Ye Zhifa was just about to turn around and leave when he grabbed Di Quji.
"Wait for me, I will go with you."
As Di Quji spoke, he immediately got up from the bed. There was still blood on the bandage on his chest.
Ye Zhifa saw this and pressed him back to the bed. He said, "You should rest a little longer in this condition. Leave it to me."
"No, I promised others that I will get rid of this evil tiger!" When Di Quji said this, the muscles on his face tensed up. Clearly, he felt extremely aggrieved in his heart.
After he said this, he took out a small golden cylinder from his waist and pointed at it. He said, "If we really want to fight the white tiger that is about to become a demon, this rainstorm needle can also help."
Ye Zhifa tried to persuade him again, but Di Quji insisted on following him.
Since he could not convince him, Ye Zhifa could only let Di Quji go. However, he did not want the person he saved to die in front of him, so he reminded Di Quji not to be reckless if he met the white tiger.
Di Quji naturally agreed. When he jumped off the bed, he found that his chest was hurting as he walked. However, when he thought of the promise he owed others, he suppressed the pain and followed Ye Zhifa out of the cottage.
After that, the two of them joined hands and started searching the forest.
Compared to Ye Zhifa, Di Quji undoubtedly had a lot more experience. When searching for traces left behind by the white tiger, it was very orderly. Ye Zhifa couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw this. If he had helped two days ago, how could he have returned empty-handed?
Unfortunately, the time the two of them had was too little. The white tiger that was about to transform into a demon was too cautious. Even though Ye Zhifa and Di Quji had already used up all their energy to search for it, they still didn't obtain any harvest.
Ye Zhifa raised his head and looked at the sky. The sun was setting in the west, and it wouldn't be long before the forest became pitch black. After that, the moon would rise.
"Stop!"
"Stop? Why?"
Under the influence of the continuous loss of blood, Di Quji's face was already pale, but when he heard Ye Zhifa's shout to stop, he still did not give up and opposed it.
"If we continue to search like this, I'm afraid that if we don't find the tiger, we will die of exhaustion. At that time, there won't even be a messenger."
After pondering for a moment, Ye Zhifa raised another question and said, "Brother Di, is there any change in the process of the white tiger transforming into a demon?"
"I heard that there will be a strange phenomenon the moment it successfully transforms into a demon, but it is already too late. As for the process of transforming into a demon, it only needs to be constantly illuminated by the moonlight."
Hearing Di Quji's plan, Ye Zhifa suddenly had an idea. He asked again, "This place is densely covered in forests. It is not easy to be illuminated by the moonlight all the way. If the white tiger wants to satisfy this condition, then..."
Speaking up to this point, Ye Zhifa suddenly stopped talking. He and Di Quji turned their heads to look at a huge rock not far away.
This huge rock was called a rock, but it was actually no different from a small hill. Its height was far higher than the surrounding woods. If the white tiger wasn't here, it would be fine. But if it had transformed into a demon now, it would most likely choose to wait for the moonlight on this mountain.
"Brother Ye, you mean we are going to wait for the white tiger on that hill?"
"That's right. It's better to wait for a rabbit instead of taking the initiative to attack. Furthermore, the field of vision there is excellent. If the white tiger leaves the forest, it will be easy to find it."
Ye Zhifa's suggestion finally moved Di Quji. The two of them left the forest and headed towards the huge rock. There was still some time before the moon rose. Not only did the two of them have time to rest, but they could also do some preparatory work.
When the full moon slowly rose from the horizon, there was only Ye Zhifa sitting on top of the hill, but Di Quji did not know where to go.
Thinking of the white tiger that could appear at any time, Ye Zhifa could not help hoping that it would not come, but also hoped that it would come.
If the white tiger did not come, then it would definitely be able to smoothly transform into a demon. At that time, it would not be something a junior like him who had not cultivated to the Spiritual Power Realm could handle. Naturally, he could return to the mountain and ask the seniors of his sect to come and get rid of the demon. However, in Ye Zhifa's heart, he was faintly looking forward to this battle with the white tiger. He did not know why, but there was a bit of warlike hot blood burning in his bones.
In Ye Zhifa's mentality of worrying about personal gains and losses, a deep roar came from the bottom of the hill. It was the white tiger!
Hearing the tiger's roar, Ye Zhifa immediately turned around and stood up. He looked down at the bottom of the hill. Indeed, the white tiger was walking up the hill step by step.
Compared to the way it fled yesterday, the white tiger was now much more majestic. Not only did the injuries on its body heal, but its eyes were also constantly shooting out red light. It looked incomparably terrifying.
"Evil creature, come!"
Ye Zhifa held his sword in his hand and shouted at the white tiger. The white tiger that had a grudge with him was provoked by him as expected. It roared and lunged at him.
Unfortunately, the white tiger didn't know that Ye Zhifa was just a bait on the surface. The real killing move was still hidden in the dark.
When the white tiger was about 20 meters away from Ye Zhifa, Di Quji, who was hiding in the dark, waved his hand. The traps that he had set up earlier were activated at the same time!
Thousands of bright lights shot out from the cracks in the rock and hit the white tiger's body together. In addition to these traps, Di Quji jumped out from the rock and pointed in the direction of the white tiger, crushing the golden cylinder.
The strength and speed of his storm needles were not something that the white tiger's reaction speed could withstand. Even though Ye Zhifa's dynamic vision was excellent, he could only see countless white needles forming a beam of light that shot into the right eye of the white tiger.
After receiving this series of heavy injuries, the white tiger wailed and fell heavily onto the small hill.
Seeing the white tiger fall, Di Quji finally let out a long breath and wiped the sweat that seeped out of his forehead due to nervousness.
"This beast is dead, right?"
Ye Zhifa wanted to walk in and take a look, but he felt a gust of evil wind blowing from the direction of the white tiger.
Not good, the white tiger was not dead yet!
