C26 Demonic energy

Yang Junshan had guessed why the Treading Bear was here ambushing the Tiger and why there might be descendants of the Tiger, but he had always had a suspicion. Since the Treading Bear already knew where the Tiger's lair was, why wasn't it ambushing it instead of ambushing it like the Violet Tattooed Boar?

However, when Yang Junshan passed through the dense forest, a rocky cliff appeared in front of him. Yang Junshan finally knew the reason.

This area was made up of uneven stone platforms, and the tiger's lair was located at the top of the cliff in a cave.

Treading on the bear's huge and clumsy body, wanting to climb up and down the stone platform on this rocky cliff was obviously impossible, while the Tiger Riding Mountain was also quite big, but compared to the Treading on the bear, it had an excellent jumping ability, and was able to continuously jump up and down on the stone platform to enter the nest.

Although Yang Junshan couldn't jump like a mountain tiger, his four limbs were much more agile than a wild beast. Although he had lost a lot of strength, in the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, Yang Junshan finally found the mountain tiger's lair.

Yang Junshan hadn't even entered the cave yet, but a faint demonic scent had already mixed with a fishy smell. If it wasn't for the fact that Yang Junshan had lived two lifetimes, he might not have been able to distinguish this from the others.

Yang Junshan was startled, but soon realized that this was not the end of a hundred years. Although the appearance of demonic qi was far beyond his expectations, but even the mountain tiger and the Earth Bear, these powerful beasts at the top of the Hundred Sparrow Mountain had only just started their demonification, so there shouldn't be any danger in this cave.

On the contrary, in his previous life, the cultivation world had talked about the great change in the heaven and earth, and the disaster was one of the main culprits, while the one in front of him might be the source of the future great change. At this moment, Yang Junshan was full of curiosity, eager to try it out.

Awoo! Awoo

Yang Junshan hadn't even stepped into the cave yet, when he heard a childish growl. A furry tiger cub couldn't tell the difference between friend and foe, and when it heard the sound, it thought that its mother had returned. It staggered out of the cave to welcome them.

Yang Junshan bent down and picked up the cub. Perhaps he smelled something wrong on Yang Junshan's body. The cub made a ruckus in his arms for a while, which also made Yang Junshan sense the faint demonic aura on the cub.

After calming down the tiger cub, Yang Junshan took a deep breath and stepped into the cave.

On a cliff about three miles away from the col, Su Bao Zhang, who had nowhere to run off, was forced onto him by Zhang Yueming and a few other youths. The exhausted Su Bao Zhang did not wait for the dark faced Zhang Yueming and the others to ask any questions and started to curse loudly, "You Thief straight mother, you're not going to hunt down immortal spirits, why are you chasing after me everywhere?"

This move of Su Bao Zhang was really ingenious, it actually caused these youths to be surprised for a moment.

Soon, a youth jumped out and shouted, "Then why are you running? You clearly have a guilty conscience!"

Su Bao Zhang said confidently: "Bullsh * t, if you guys don't chase after me, will I run away? This is like a barren mountain and wilderness. If so many of you have any bad intentions, how am I supposed to justify your actions?"

The youth was still about to speak when Zhang Yueming reached out a hand to stop him. He took a step forward and asked with a dark expression, "Were those tiger roars you made just now?"

Su Bao Zhang looked deeply at him, then proudly said: "That's right, how is it? You look alike, don't you?"

Zhang Yue Ming's tone suddenly became higher, and she said angrily, "You're purposely trying to attract us by imitating the tiger's roar?"

Previously, Zhang Yue Ming and the rest had followed the butterfly talisman to search for traces of the mountain tiger. Unexpectedly, a tiger's roar sounded, causing them to give up on the slow moving butterfly talisman, and they all swarmed towards the direction of the roar. However, the hissing sounds soon began to move further and further away, leading them to the opposite side of the cove.

By the time Zhang Yue Ming and the rest realized that something wasn't right, Su Bao Zhang had already been swimming around the mountain with the rest of the youths for more than an hour, only to be chased down and forced to the top of the cliff.

When Su Bao Zhang heard Zhang Yue Ming's question, he said in surprise: "I did indeed do that on purpose, but why did I lure you here? I originally wanted to attract an injured mountain tiger to sit down and take advantage of the situation, what does it have to do with you guys? "

One of the youths could no longer hold it in as he loudly said, "We were the ones that injured you. You dared to steal our things. Tell us, where did Mountain Lord go? If you don't want to say it, then we won't hold back!"

Upon hearing these words, Su Bao Zhang immediately shouted towards Heaven Crasher: "You guys still asked me for traces of that Mountain Lord, but I still haven't asked for them. If you didn't chase after me like this, that Mountain Lord would have already been found."

Although they felt that something was wrong, they could not say anything. Only a thought was running through their minds: could it be that they really did have a dragon?

Zhang Yue Ming suspected that Su Bao Zhang was lying, but due to the lack of evidence, another teenager stood out from behind her and said fiercely, "No matter what, the direction that you have misled us towards is the truth. It's unforgivable for that, unless you can compensate us for our losses!"

Hearing that, everyone's spirits immediately rose, and began to clamor for Su Bao Zhang to keep the valuable things on him. Zhang Yue Ming observed from the sidelines coldly, but did not say a word.

"Behind you is a cliff that's hundreds of feet high. You should know the consequences if you fall down, and if you don't want to fall down, it's best if you hand over what you have on you. Also, you must take the initiative to leave the hunting grounds, or else I won't mind sending you off myself!"

The moment the young man finished speaking, Zhang Yue Ming knew that something was wrong. She leapt forward and shouted, "Stop him! He's tearing apart the amulet!"

Su Bao Zhang, who was standing by the side of the cliff, smiled coldly, only to see a black round stone that Su Bao Zhang had long since threw out. After the round stone fell to the ground, all of the surrounding sand and stones started to gather towards the round stone, and after a short while, a yellow stone wall rose up in front of him.

Su Bao Zhang smiled as he looked at the crowd. Afterwards, he casually circulated the faint Spiritual Energy within his body to his hands and tore apart the Guardian Talisman. Another layer of protection light rose up and with these two layers of protection, Su Bao Zhang could wait for the arrival of the Mountain Defender.

Zhang Yue Ming looked at Su Bao Zhang for a moment before flashing the rune sword in her hand. Su Bao Zhang was startled, but when he looked at it again, Su Bao Zhang was startled and immediately put it back into the sword sheath. Then, Zhang Yue turned around and left without looking back, and the rest of the youths followed behind her.

Seeing that everyone had left, Su Bao Zhang let out a sigh of relief and muttered to himself: "We can only delay this much longer. Hopefully, it will be enough for you to kill two fierce beasts."

Only then did he realize that Zhang Yueming's sword had already disappeared in a flash. In fact, he had already broken the talisman that Yang Junshan had given him to use in order to save his life, and that Zhang Yueming had clearly warned him that he had the ability to destroy his own life-saving techniques, and what he had said earlier might have been a lie to the others, but Zhang Ming understood very well.

This man was worthy of being called the genius of the Heaven Shaking Sect. No wonder the Jun brothers regarded him with such importance.

A streak of light pierced through the sky. Unfortunately, he did not have the time to find a celestial spirit to summon his spirit. With a hint of regret, Su Bao Zhang left the Hundred Sparrow Mountain's encampment.

Yang Junshan came out of the cave with the tiger cub in his arms. His face was filled with excitement and shock, then he suppressed his emotions and rushed to the cove. The tiger was already on its last breath, but he didn't want to leave the cub with only a corpse.

Although the berserk beasts did not have reason, they could instinctively condense the world's spirit energy within their bodies to nurture a celestial spirit, and after being infected by the demonic energy, they had already begun to gain intelligence. Not only did they know to consciously absorb the world's spirit energy to cultivate, they even knew how to conceal the celestial spirit nurtured within their bodies.

The difference between the two made a difference. While a celestial spirit might be born in the body of a vicious beast, a celestial spirit definitely existed in the body of a demonic beast that had gained intelligence.

However, because the former had no intelligence, if they were killed by others, the immortal spirit within their body would naturally be taken away by others. On the other hand, when the latter was facing death because of an immortal spirit, they would often destroy their own immortal spirit, causing the cultivator to gain nothing.

In his previous life, these things would have been widely spread a hundred years later, but now, the cultivation world didn't even know what monsters were. Yang Junshan had these kinds of knowledge.

The reason why Yang Junshan was only able to confirm that there was a tiger bone immortal spirit within his body when he rode the tiger and charged out of the Fire Bird Talisman was because he wasn't sure if the tiger had also been infected by the demonic energy like the bear on the ground and had started to gain intelligence. Furthermore, he didn't want to arouse Su Bao Zhang's suspicions.

As for the reason why the Immortal-Treading Bear, Yang Junshan, didn't spend so much effort as the Tiger, and most importantly, it had already disappeared at the last moment of its life, extinguishing its last trace of intelligence. Yang Junshan naturally wasn't worried that the immortal spirit within the giant bear would shatter itself before it died.

Yang Junshan hastily jumped off the cliff and ran towards the col with the tiger cub in his arms. The cub seemed to have also sensed his mother's presence, and it kept howling like a baby tiger, and as they got closer, the cub's cries became more and more short and urgent. The smell of blood coming from the col seemed to stimulate the cub, and it almost struggled to jump down from Yang Junshan's arms.

The tiger cub in his arms finally stopped when he heard a weak growl. He just stretched his head out from Yang Junshan's arms, waiting for something anxiously.
