Slaying Demon Beasts One After Another

After resting overnight, Ling Yunhong released the Qi Training Completion Immortal Spirit Crane King at dawn the next day, allowing it to continue exploring the surrounding Demon Beast clans.

After waiting for a full hour, the Immortal Spirit Crane King finally returned to the desolate valley.

After exchanging a few words with the Immortal Spirit Crane King through the Recognition of Ownership Restriction, Ling Yunhong learned the information that the Immortal Spirit Crane King had been investigating.

"According to the Immortal Spirit Crane King, the two groups of rat demons and wolf demons that we destroyed earlier were the only two groups of Demon Beast within a twenty-mile radius. Although there are other Demon Beast in the vicinity, their cultivation levels are too low and they are all alone. Therefore, the Immortal Spirit Crane King had to keep expanding the search area, which is why it took so long."

"This time, the Immortal Spirit Crane King discovered three groups of Demon Beast. One of them is located more than forty miles east of the exit of the desolate valley. There is a mountain hollow in that hollow, where there is a group of pig demons, numbering in the dozens, all of whom are at the Qi Training Stage."

"Secondly, thirty miles to the south, in a cave beneath a cliff, there is a group of Earth Demon Tiger. Although there are only about ten of them, according to the perception of the Immortal Spirit Crane King, there is a Foundation Establishment Realm Earth Demon Tiger among them. As for its cultivation level, the Immortal Spirit Crane King does not know. It did not approach to investigate, so as not to encounter danger."

"Thirdly, fifty miles to the west, there is a small valley, in which there are hundreds of Snake Demon. It is a Snake Cave, and there are two Foundation Establishment Realm auras inside."

"Given our limited strength, I plan to target only the first two Demon Beast groups. As for the Snake Cave, there are too many snake Snake Demon there. Even if we could devour them all, there would be casualties, making it a losing proposition. What do you think?"

Everyone agreed with this and expressed their approval.

Seeing that everyone agreed to this suggestion, Ling Yunhong asked the Immortal Spirit Crane King to lead the way, and then called on Ling Pengyun and nine other clansmen who were proficient in the Azure Wood Binding Demon Array to leave the desolate valley.

After leaving the desolate valley, thanks to the Immortal Spirit Crane King scouting the way in the sky and the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator Ling Yunhong constantly using his powerful Divine Sense to explore, the Ling Clan and their group bypassed several Qi Training Demon Beast and spent half an hour stealthily traveling before finally arriving at their destination: the mountain valley occupied by dozens of Qi Training Stage pig demons.

Inside the mountain valley was a mud pit several tens of feet in size, inhabited by more than thirty large Qi Training Stage pig demons. These pig demons were either sleeping or frolicking in the mud pit.

Because the Ling Clan family members were of high cultivation level, small in number, and able to conceal their auras, the pig demons did not notice Ling Clan arrival.

It wasn't until Ling Yunhong unleashed eighteen flying swords, slashing down the only Qi Training Completion Boar Demon King in the swamp that the entire Pig Demon horde realized a cultivator had intruded.

Before they could launch a counterattack, the nine battle flags fluttered in the wind and quickly floated down to the four sides of the mud pit.

The nine array flags rippled through the air, and array patterns emerged from within them, transforming into a transparent green light curtain.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of arm-thick vines grew out of the mud pit, binding the remaining thirty-odd Qi Training Stage pig demons tightly by their four legs.

No matter how hard these pig demons struggled, they could not break free from the vines binding their four legs.

The next moment, Ling Yunhong unleashed eighteen flying swords, one after another, killing the bound pig demons.

The battle had barely begun when it came to an end.

The corpse in the mud pit was quickly collected by the Ling Clan family. Since there were no spiritual objects in the mud pit, they quickly left the place.

Because killing this nest of Qi Refining pig demons was too easy, none of the Ling Clan clan members present had expended much spiritual power. They then followed the Immortal Spirit Crane King, who was leading the way in the sky, and headed directly towards the nest of the dozen or so Earth Demon Tiger.

After running for dozens of miles, the group arrived at the foot of a cliff.

Before they could find the lair of the Earth Demon Tiger, the destination of their journey, the Immortal Spirit Crane King, who had been leading the way, spotted two Qi Training Stage Earth Demon Tiger in Lin Zhong a few hundred feet away from the Ling Clan, thanks to his broad vision and good eyesight.

Because it was these two Earth Demon Tiger that led the Ling Clan on this trip to kill members of that group of Earth Demon Tiger, the Immortal Spirit Crane King did not lead the Ling Clan to bypass the two Qi Refining Earth Demon Tiger not far away. Instead, it activated the Recognition of Ownership Restriction within its body and informed its Master, "Ling Yunhong," of this matter.

On the ground, Ling Yunhong, who was leading the Ling Clan family on their journey, noticed the message, his expression slightly hardened, and he greeted them.

"The Immortal Spirit Crane King has discovered two Qi Refining stage Earth Demon Tiger that we need to kill on this trip. I will go alone to eliminate them. You wait for me here."

After saying these words, Ling Yunhong was enveloped in Qing Feng, which then dissipated into the wind and disappeared.

In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from the sight of the Ling Clan family.

The Ling Clan members who remained in place also became vigilant about their surroundings, lest Ling Yunhong, Foundation Establishment Realm, be absent and allow any Demon Beast to run rampant.

On the other side.

Guided by the Immortal Spirit Crane King soaring in the sky, Ling Yunhong found the two Qi Training Stage Earth Demon Tiger that had just emerged from a small grove of trees a few hundred feet away in less than ten breaths, and blocked their path.

When the two Earth Demon Tiger saw a cultivator suddenly appear before them, without any aura, their eyes flashed with ferocity, and drool even dripped from the corners of their mouths, clearly regarding Ling Yunhong as "meal on their plate."

Before the two Qi Training Late Stage Earth Demon Tiger could indulge in any further fantasies, Ling Yunhong summoned two Second Rank Low Grade Azure Spirit Sword and swiftly unleashed them.

The two flying swords transformed into sword light, directly piercing the heads of the two Qi Training Late Stage Refining Earth Demon Tiger.

With their heads pierced, these two Earth Demon Tiger had no chance of survival. Their life force rapidly weakened, and they collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

Just as Ling Yunhong stepped forward, intending to collect the two Earth Demon Tiger corpses, a deafening tiger roar came from afar.

"Roar!"

Upon hearing this sound, Ling Yunhong frowned immediately.

In the sky, the Immortal Spirit Crane King, which served as Ling Yunhong's eyes, had a white light shining in each of its eyes, enhancing its vision as it looked towards the place where the tiger's roar had come from.

Upon closer inspection, it discovered that the place from which the tiger's roar came was the very lair where it and the Ling Clan clan were tasked with killing the group of Earth Demon Tiger.

The next moment, twelve Qi Refining Earth Demon Tigers, each the size of a yellow ox, charged out of their lair, led by a Foundation Building Earth Demon Tiger that was one zhang tall and two zhang long.

The thirteen Earth Demon Tiger charged in the direction that Ling Yunhong was in.

The Immortal Spirit Crane King's expression trembled, and he quickly used the Recognition of Ownership Restriction to transmit this message to Ling Yunhong below.

Upon receiving the message, Ling Yunhong thought to himself, "This is bad."

He quickly collected the two Qi Training Late Stage Earth Demon Tiger corpses and immediately returned to the Ling Clan cultivators' group, which was several hundred feet away.

Upon returning to the group, Ling Yunhong addressed everyone with a solemn expression.

"According to the message from the Immortal Spirit Crane King who has been observing the surroundings from the sky, the tiger roar we just heard was the Foundation Establishment Tiger King among the group of Earth Demon Tiger that we are here to kill."

"Perhaps it's because I killed those two late-stage Qi Refining Earth Demon Tigers around us earlier, that Foundation Establishment Earth Demon Tiger is now leading twelve Qi Refining Earth Demon Tigers toward us. They will definitely arrive in less than a hundred breaths. Take out your array flags and prepare for battle."

After saying this, Ling Yunhong waved his hand and took out eighteen Azure Spirit Sword and a golden magic shield.

As soon as the eighteen flying swords left the outside world, they transformed into Sword Formation. Each flying sword emitted a Sword-Ray three zhang long, and the Sword Formation was surrounded by hundreds of smaller Sword-Ray about an inch long.

The golden magic shield floated in the air, forming a golden light curtain that protected all ten Ling Clan cultivators present.

Seeing this, Ling Pengyun and his nine companions gradually became serious. In the past, they would sneak into the Demon Beast's lair and launch a surprise attack to gain the upper hand.

However, this time, the Earth Demon Tiger noticed them and engaged in a direct battle. Furthermore, Ling Yunhong took out his golden magic shield, which greatly affected his strength. The combination of these two factors significantly increased the difficulty of killing the Earth Demon Tiger.

With a crisis looming, Ling Pengyun and the others dared not be distracted. They quickly took out the array flags of the Azure Wood Binding Demon Array and deployed them underground, merging them into the path that the Earth Demon Tiger was bound to take, awaiting Earth Demon Tiger attack.

A hundred breaths later, the thirteen Earth Demon Tiger appeared half a mile away from the Ling Clan family.

Ling Yunhong's gaze swept over the thirteen Earth Demon Tiger, finally settling on the Earthly Fiend Tiger King, who was in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Sensing that the tiger's aura was only at the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment, Ling Yunhong's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.

"It's only the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment, which is actually a good thing."

"Yun Qian, quickly use the formation to trap those Earth Demon Tiger, lest the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Tiger King activate its Protective Yuan Qi, causing the Azure Wood Binding Demon Array to lose its effectiveness."

After saying this, Ling Yunhong quickly unleashed the eighteen flying swords that had already formed Sword Formation.

Ling Yunqian, who had received the signal, immediately understood and quickly Hand Seals, condensing a Law Seals and sending it into the Azure Wood Binding Demon Formation Plate floating in front of him.

As soon as the Law Seals merged into the array plate, the array plate flashed with a bright green light.

"Initiate the formation!" Ling Yunqian murmured.

Immediately afterwards, nine array flags burst forth from the depths of the ground, quickly surrounding the thirteen Earth Demon Tiger that were charging from afar, forming a magic array.

Once the formation was complete, hundreds of arm-thick vines suddenly appeared, spreading to the four feet of the thirteen Earth Demon Tiger and binding them tightly, making it difficult for the thirteen Earth Demon Tiger to run forward.

Before the Earth Demon Tiger could break free from the wooden vines, Ling Yunhong's eighteen flying swords, which had already formed Sword Formation, carried a hundred Sword-Ray like a torrent of Sword Light Torrent. In an instant, they traversed half a mile and arrived at the group of thirteen Earth Demon Tiger that were charging towards them.

The Sword Light Torrent was incredibly powerful; in just one exchange, it killed the two few Early-Stage Qi Training Refining Earth Demon Tiger Earth Demon Tiger the group.

If the Earth Demon Tiger hadn't reacted quickly and erected its protective energy to shield the other Earth Demon Tigers, the casualties among the Earth Demon Tiger horde would have been even greater.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!..." The Sword-Ray struck the Protective Yuan Qi erected by the Foundation Establishment Tiger King, producing a series of muffled sounds.

Subsequently, the Protective Yuan Qi began to tremble, and its spiritual light gradually dimmed.

Seeing this, the demonic tiger building the base flashed a yellow light in its eyes, let out a low roar, and increased the amount of spiritual power it poured into its protective aura.

The Protective Yuan Qi flashed with spiritual light, becoming much thicker, barely managing to stabilize itself under the fierce barrage of hundreds of tiny Sword-Ray carried by the Earthly Fiend Sword Radiance.

Seeing this, the Earthly Fiend Tiger King secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his head and watched as the dozens of vines binding his four legs tightened more and more. He roared angrily and swung his four legs with all his might.

"Roar!"

Between Mount Sumeru, the dozens of vines binding its four legs were torn off one after another by the immense force.

The other Qi Training Stage Earth Demon Tiger behaved in the same way.

Seeing this from afar, Ling Yunqian, who controlled the Azure Wood Binding Demon Formation Plate, addressed the remaining clansmen who were holding array flags.

"Increase the spiritual power injected into the array flags. We must trap that Foundation Establishment Realm Earth Demon Tiger and the other ten Qi Training Stage Earth Demon Tiger."

"The Earth Demon Tiger are physically strong and good at close combat. Once they get close, their strength will be fully unleashed. Only by keeping them at a distance can we gain an advantage."
