The Cruelty of the Cultivation World Is Nothing More Than This

They carefully followed the two enormous and imposing Tiger Demons, slowly making their way through the dense, deep mountain forest.

All along the way, the surroundings were so quiet that only their footsteps and the occasional bird song could be heard.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a huge cave entrance finally appeared before them.

The two Tiger Demons entered the cave first, and they followed closely behind.

As soon as they stepped into the cave, everyone was awestruck by the sight before them. The entire interior of the cave was decorated in a magnificent and beautiful manner, truly fit to be described as "resplendent"!

Countless sparkling gems were embedded in the cave walls, a soft and luxurious carpet covered the ground, and exquisite crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling, illuminating the entire space as brightly as day.

Moving further inside, they saw many dazzling and rare treasures displayed in the depths of the cave. Some emitted strange glows, while others had unique and ingenious designs.

Clearly, this pair of Tiger Demons had spent many years plundering and looting treasures from various places to accumulate such astonishing wealth.

Zhou Yan raised an eyebrow slightly, "You have quite a few treasures here!"

The male tiger quickly said, "My wife and I are willing to offer all the treasures in our cave, presenting them to the four Immortal Families, solely to atone for our past sins!"

Zhou Yan nodded, feeling that the other party was being sensible.

"Esteemed guests, please come this way. I have a peerless Immortal Treasure here."

"A peerless Immortal Treasure?"

The four of them became interested and followed the Tiger Demon to the end of the cave.

"Where is the Immortal Treasure?"

"Master Immortal, please look."

The male tiger took a step back, then another.

The next moment, he flashed away.

A cage sprang up from the ground, instantly enveloping the four of them.

Zhou Yan reacted immediately, "You two demons haven't changed your ways, you actually resorted to trickery!"

"Amitabha, this humble monk is very angry, very furious."

"You are truly wicked, to think I trusted you so much."

Bai Xue stamped her foot in anger.

"It's just that you are too stupid!!" The female tiger laughed heartily. "You cultivators are both stupid and naive; it's not unjust for you to fall into our hands."

"You think this can trap us!?"

Zhou Yan let out a cold snort and swung his sword.

One sword transformed into a hundred swords.

This was a unique skill of the Xuantian Sword Sect, which, when cultivated to its peak, could even transform one sword into thousands.

However, even with Zhou Yan unleashing such a powerful sword technique.

The surrounding vines remained completely unharmed.

The female tiger laughed heartily, "Don't waste your energy. These vines are a Treasure Artifact formed from a seed left behind by one of the two Immortals of this era. Not to mention you, even someone at the Great Perfection of Golden Core Stage wouldn't be able to break through these vines."

Zhou Yan refused to believe it, continuously channeling his True Essence and wielding his long sword.

Qingfeng and Qingming, along with Bai Xue, joined the effort.

But the reality was just as the female tiger had said. Even though they used various spells and Treasure Artifacts, they were still unable to break through the cage.

The four of them couldn't help but panic for a moment.

Bai Xue threatened, "Demon, if you let us out now, there's still a way out. Otherwise, when our Sect arrives, we will grind you into ashes..."

She stopped mid-sentence, suddenly feeling dizzy.

Soon, the other three also felt the same.

The two Tiger Demons let out disdainful laughter.

"These vines emit corrosive poisonous gas. In less than half an hour, you will Die and Vanish, slowly waiting for your death."

Upon hearing this, the four of them changed expression again.

But no matter what they did, they couldn't damage the vines.

In the end, they even abandoned their pride and begged the two Tiger Demons for mercy.

But how could the Tiger Demons be like them, giving their enemies a second chance?

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

The four of them lay on the ground, their breaths gone.

The cruelty of the cultivation world was nothing more than this.

The two Tiger Demons quickly packed up everything in the cave dwelling.

If these four died here, their Sect would definitely locate this place by tracing the special markings on their bodies.

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.

This is absolutely not a place to stay.

"Alas, what a pity about this cave dwelling," the Male Tiger said regretfully.

"As long as our lives are saved, that's better than anything."

The Female Tiger's breathing was still a bit unstable. That sneak attack by Ling Xuanxiao earlier had truly injured its foundation.

"Don't worry, my dear. If I ever have the chance to meet that cultivator again, I will skin him and pull out his tendons."

The Female Tiger smiled, "Alright, let's go quickly."

The two Tiger Demons quickly headed down the mountain.

The sun was setting in the west. By the time the last ray of sunset disappeared, only darkness remained in the mountain forest.

The two Tiger Demons were rushing along the mountain path.

Just then, a silvery-white light suddenly appeared.

It shot directly through the Male Tiger's body, pinning him to an ancient tree.

The Female Tiger was startled and let out a tiger's roar.

But it couldn't locate the opponent's position at all. There were auras all around.

There were no less than ten people.

A gust of wind swept in with a howl. This was no ordinary wind, but an extremely violent hurricane!

The fur on the Female Tiger's body danced wildly in the wind.

Controlling wind was a necessary skill after a fierce tiger became a spirit.

With a world-shattering roar, "BOOM—!!"

The entire space seemed to tremble. The hurricane, centered on the Female Tiger, swept out in all directions like an unstoppable torrent.

Wherever it passed, sand and stones flew, grass and trees were uprooted, and even the earth was peeled back, revealing a thick layer of mud.

In the blink of an eye, the area within a radius of five zhang became a barren wasteland, with not a blade of grass growing. Only bare earth and dust swirling in the air remained.

Of course, there were also the shredded puppets.

The Female Tiger's expression changed.

But it was too late.

Two beams of sword light struck its body. The Female Tiger let out a mournful cry and collapsed.

Ling Xuanxiao emerged from the shadows.

"Wait! Immortal Master, you promised to spare our lives," the Male Tiger cried out mournfully.

"They promised you, not me," Ling Xuanxiao said calmly.

"My wife and I have already discussed with those four Immortal Masters and are preparing to leave the peak and go down the mountain to atone for our sins. If the Immortal Master truly wishes to kill us, please at least let us finish atoning for our sins before taking action!" the Male Tiger pleaded.

"Your atonement is to die quickly right here."

Ling Xuanxiao raised his sword.

"Wait! Wait!"

The Female Tiger also panicked. This man's eyes only held the desire to kill them. There was nothing else discernible.

"We have countless treasures in our cave dwelling, as well as magic artifacts left by immortals. If the Immortal Master is willing to spare us, all these things can be given to the Immortal Master!!!"

Ling Xuanxiao slashed down with his sword. "Foolish! Even if I kill you, those things will still be mine."

Female Tiger: ...

Is this a righteous sect!?

With a sword strike, the Female Tiger's life force vanished.

The Male Tiger's eyes bulged with rage. "Wife!! You bastard, I'm going to kill you."

"Don't rush, it'll be you soon."

Ling Xuanxiao wasted no more words. His flying sword shot out.

A sword pierced the Male Tiger's head.

The Male Tiger's head lolled, and it quickly lost its life force.

After killing the two Tiger Demons, Ling Xuanxiao collected their storage rings and then followed the path they had taken.
