Ning Luo took a closer look. It was a Second-tier Magical Beast—the Crimson Flame Tiger!
Flames burned across the Crimson Flame Tiger's body. It looked vicious and terrifying beyond measure.
With its jaws wide open, it roared incessantly. Seeing Ning Luo and Nalan Yanran, the Crimson Flame Tiger regarded them as food.
"Senior Brother!" Nalan Yanran immediately hid behind Ning Luo, who stepped forward to protect her.
At that moment.
Liu Ling was following behind Ning Luo and Nalan Yanran.
When he saw Ning Luo and Nalan Yanran blocked by the Magical Beast, a cold smile immediately curled across his lips.
"Ning Luo, this is a Second-tier Magical Beast. You're dead this time. Even if you don't die, you'll be seriously injured. Then I'll see how I teach you a lesson!"
Liu Ling hid behind Ning Luo and the others.
Clearly, he wanted to reap the benefits without lifting a finger.
"Yanran, wait for me!"
Nalan Yanran nodded. As Ning Luo spoke, he walked step by step toward the Crimson Flame Tiger.
"Hmph, Ning Luo, let's see how you deal with this Second-tier Magical Beast!" Liu Ling sneered inwardly.
"Senior Brother, be careful!"
Nalan Yanran called out from behind Ning Luo.
Ning Luo turned back and flashed a bright smile before continuing forward step by step.
"Come on!"
As Ning Luo spoke, his body suddenly leaped out.
He used the movement technique, Proximity to Horizon! Proximity to Horizon was a high-grade Heaven-tier movement combat technique capable of increasing one's speed for a short time.
In an instant, he leaped before the Crimson Flame Tiger. The corners of his mouth slowly rose. "Little tiger, your hide would make a pretty handsome coat!"
As though it understood Ning Luo's provocation, the Crimson Flame Tiger immediately let out a roar and lunged fiercely at him.
Roar—
The Crimson Flame Tiger roared as its massive body pounced toward Ning Luo.
In the blink of an eye, Ning Luo activated Proximity to Horizon and shot away.
The Crimson Flame Tiger missed!
As a Second-tier Magical Beast, the Crimson Flame Tiger was far stronger than an ordinary tiger. More terrifyingly, flames burned over its body, and it could even spit fireballs. If Ning Luo was hit by one of those fireballs through carelessness, even he might fall to the Crimson Flame Tiger.
Moreover, the Crimson Flame Tiger was not slow, and its attacks were powerful. Ning Luo could not confront it head-on! Activating Proximity to Horizon, Ning Luo continually circled around the Crimson Flame Tiger.
"Roar—"
The Crimson Flame Tiger roared again. Ning Luo's constant taunting had enraged it beyond measure! But it was simply slower than Ning Luo and could not catch him, leaving it to rage helplessly! Ning Luo seized on this, constantly wearing down the Crimson Flame Tiger's fighting spirit.
At that moment, the Crimson Flame Tiger let out a great roar. The flames around its body flared up, and its speed suddenly increased dramatically as it pounced at Ning Luo.
Ning Luo had never expected it to be able to increase its speed so suddenly. He fired a stream of Green Wood Sword Qi, striking the Crimson Flame Tiger's body. The Crimson Flame Tiger roared and staggered back several steps.
Crimson light surged violently through the narrow path, even producing crackling sounds as it scorched the rocks.
Taking a deep breath, Ning Luo narrowed his eyes slightly. His right leg quickly stepped half a pace forward, his left leg bent as he crouched, his gaze fixed firmly on the Crimson Flame Tiger.
The Crimson Flame Tiger suddenly spat out a fireball, which shot toward Ning Luo.
Ning Luo snorted disdainfully and immediately released red Dou Qi from his hand.
The two flames collided! Boom! A violent explosion rang out.
The flames exploded in the air, and even the air crackled continuously.
The two flames canceled each other out in midair.
Ning Luo's body had already rushed forward at high speed. He charged straight at the Crimson Flame Tiger. Yet he took only three steps. As the third step landed, a ball of flame condensed in his hand. He clenched his fist and punched toward the Crimson Flame Tiger.
At that moment, Ning Luo suddenly spotted Liu Ling.
An idea immediately came to him.
He turned and moved to the Crimson Flame Tiger's side.
Then he threw a punch.
Boom—
A loud bang rang out.
The Crimson Flame Tiger was sent flying toward Liu Ling in an instant.
Bang—
Another loud crash rang out.
The Crimson Flame Tiger slammed heavily into the ground.
At that moment, Nalan Yanran looked at Ning Luo in utter shock.
That Crimson Flame Tiger was enormous. How much did such a massive body weigh? Yet even so, it had failed to gain any advantage against Ning Luo and had even been sent flying backward by Ning Luo's Dou Qi.
Where did Senior Brother get such strength? Nalan Yanran stared uncertainly at the man not far in front of her.
Her little mouth formed an O, as though it could fit an egg inside.
"Senior Brother is... way too strong!"
At that moment, the Crimson Flame Tiger landed where Liu Ling was.
Liu Ling was immediately horrified.
The Crimson Flame Tiger climbed to its feet and saw Liu Ling.
It was a ferocious beast and knew Ning Luo was difficult to deal with, so it shifted its target to Liu Ling.
Liu Ling's legs trembled nonstop.
Just then, Ning Luo saw Liu Ling's pants becoming wet.
"Holy crap, no way... he peed himself from fright?"
In truth, this was also Liu Ling's first time seeing a Magical Beast. He had absolutely no combat experience.
The sight of such a huge Magical Beast scared him so badly that he wet himself! Actually, if Liu Ling dared to fight, his strength as a Four-star Fighter should have been enough for him to barely handle a Second-tier Magical Beast.
Ning Luo shook his head, unable to help looking down on him.
"Help!" Liu Ling screamed, then fled madly as the Crimson Flame Tiger chased after him.
