The Tianshu Fragment on the Spirit Beast

Ma Feifei stared in astonishment at the Tianshu Fragment embedded in the tail of the Crimson Water Scorpion, which was shimmering with orange light.

A fragment of Tianshu Fragment Tianshu Book, a book of Eternal grade quality, has appeared on a spirit beast within the Nine Heavens Mountain!

"Maybe I'm seeing things?" Ma Feifei couldn't help but rub his eyes and walked towards the direction of the Crimson Water Scorpion.

Seeing this, Chang Kong quickly followed, and walked past Ma Feifei, standing in front of Ma Feifei.

The Sky-reaching Ape Monkey and Ba Jiu, however, were unaware of what was going on and followed behind Ma Feifei.

The young master among the four was overjoyed to see his team finally cut off the Crimson Water Scorpion's large pincers, believing the Crimson Water Scorpion was surely dead at their hands. He was about to praise the woman wielding the sword when he noticed Ma Feifei approaching from afar. His expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "Oh no! We've run into a scavenger!"

"I'll hold them off, you guys quickly deal with the Crimson Water Scorpion." Upon seeing this, the woman who had been wielding the sword dodged the attack of the berserk Crimson Water Scorpion and, with a flip, stood in front of Ma Feifei.

"This is a spirit beast we hunted. We hope you will abide by the Adventurers' Law," the sword-wielding woman said coldly, looking at Ma Feifei.

The so-called Adventurers' Law was a set of rules jointly established by the five nations to address the frequent occurrence of malicious attacks on fellow Land of Adventurers, aimed at seizing their gains. However, this law is clearly useless; it's a rule that everyone knows about, but I just won't follow.

Although Ma Feifei rarely traveled to Land of Adventurers, he still had some understanding of the Adventurers' Law, so he understood what the sword-wielding woman meant. He shook his head and smiled, "Miss, you misunderstand. I have no interest in this spirit beast, nor will I Snatch. I only want one thing from it."

Let alone a seventh-tier spirit beast, even a ninth-tier spirit beast wouldn't tempt Ma Feifei to Snatch it now. After all, his perspective has changed; he doesn't even give a second glance to anything below a divine artifact.

Ma Feifei thought so, but the others didn't.

Especially the only male among the four, a young master, who killed the Crimson Water Scorpion with a single sword strike, walked to the woman holding the sword, looked at Ma Feifei and said, "We hunted the spirit beasts, so naturally everything belongs to us. So, young brother, you can forget about it. Go hunt spirit beasts somewhere else."

"Hmm..." Ma Feifei frowned, about to speak, when suddenly a glint of light appeared in the corner of his eye. He instinctively shouted, "Watch out!"

In the blink of an eye, two middle-aged men, like ghosts, thrust their short daggers at the woman who had just killed the Crimson Water Scorpion as she fell from the sky.

The two women sensed the danger, their Spiritual Power surged, and they turned around, raising their weapons to stab at the middle-aged man who was attacking them.

'Bang!'

'Bang!'

The two powerful explosions of Spiritual Power sounded particularly jarring in the night. The shockwaves from the battle far exceeded those from the previous fight with the Crimson Water Scorpion, causing the spirit beasts in the distance to become restless and emit low, rumbling sounds that echoed back.

"Xia He, Qiu Lu!" With the young master's exclamation, Xia He and Qiu Lu were both thrown back, spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air, before crashing heavily to the ground a hundred meters away, their fate unknown.

The two middle-aged men's sudden attack actually rendered Xia He and Qiu Lu, both of whom possessed the Spirit King ninth stage realm, unable to fight.

"Both of them are at the Spirit King ninth stage, and one of them is vaguely close to breaking through to the peak of the ninth level," Chang Kong said softly, standing next to Ma Feifei.

Ma Feifei nodded slightly. The timing of their appearance was perfect. They Sucker Punch attack when Xia He and Qiu Shuang had just lost their old strength and had not yet developed new strength, and when their guard was greatly reduced. This prevented Xia He and Qiu Lu from having a perfect defense, which is why they suffered such serious injuries.

However, the two were only knocked unconscious and suffered internal injuries, but they were still breathing and not in mortal danger.

"This is what real food-grabbing looks like." Ma Feifei watched as the two middle-aged men defeated Xia He and Qiu Lu, then ran directly to the Crimson Water Scorpion. One of them took out a spatial bag from his waist to put the Crimson Water Scorpion inside.

"You bastards, you even dare to injure my people!" The young master and the woman with the sword ran to Xia He and Qiu Lu to check their injuries. Seeing that two middle-aged men were about to Snatch the corpse of the Crimson Water Scorpion, the young master stood up Rage. His spatial ring flashed, and a formation talisman appeared in his hand.

"Buzz~" The young master poured his Spiritual Power into the talisman, which shone brightly and transformed into a huge, hairy, saw-toothed beast.

"Roar!"

The long-haired, serrated beast roared, then its body trembled violently. It split into two, then into four, and roared away like a tiger descending a mountain.

"Eighth-tier Spirit Beast Formation can conjure up spirit beasts equivalent to ordinary eighth-tier spirit beasts to aid in battle. The conjured spirit beasts possess 80% of the strength of an eighth-tier spirit beast." As a Ninth-tier formation master, Chang Kong was very knowledgeable about these things and explained them to Ma Feifei.

Ma Feifei wasn't particularly interested in formations and nodded in agreement. This frustrated Chang Kong, who wanted to show off his skills in front of Ma Feifei. He resolved that when he got back, he would definitely ask Zhang Yunji what the shop owner liked, and then tailor his approach accordingly to increase his standing in the shop owner's eyes.

Although the four long-haired ferocious beasts were merely illusions, their strength—88% of that of a spirit beast—was something even Spirit King ninth stage like them couldn't contend with. They struggled to withstand the beasts' attacks and frequently fell into traps.

"Take down the Crimson Water Scorpion and get out of here!" A middle-aged man shouted to his companion as he used a dagger to frighten away a long-haired beast.

"Alright!" the other middle-aged man replied in a deep voice, using the force of the beast's attack to retreat, and then turned in mid-air to shoot at the Crimson Water Scorpion.

"Don't even think about it!" The young master, who had been waiting for an opportunity, rushed forward with his sword drawn.

"Young master, no!" The only conscious woman holding the sword was feeding medicine to the unconscious Xia He and Qiu Lu when she saw the young master rushing forward with his sword. She couldn't help but exclaim and stood up to stop her young master.

But it was too late; the young master had already entered the battlefield.

"You're courting death!" The middle-aged man glanced coldly at him, the dagger flashing with light, and slashed directly at the young master's neck, clearly aiming for a fatal blow.

The young master poured all his Spiritual Power into the spirit sword and thrust it towards the middle-aged man.

"Clang~"

The sound of a sharp weapon Tackle.

'Bang~'

With a thud, the young master couldn't withstand the blow and was sent flying, collapsing to the ground and spitting blood.

"Young Master!" The woman with the sword didn't care about the unconscious Xia He and Qiu Lu anymore and rushed towards the young master.

"Whose stupid son is this?" Ma Feifei couldn't help but complain upon seeing this scene. Damn it, the two of them are so different in skill level, yet they dare to be so reckless. Even the protagonists in novels aren't this exaggerated! And yet, they still went for it. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the young master's eighth-tier spirit sword was superior to the middle-aged man's dagger, preventing the dagger from cutting through the spirit sword, the young master might have been killed by the middle-aged man just now.

The middle-aged man, having landed a successful blow, did not Pursuit. Instead, he went to the side of Crimson Water Scorpion.

"Sorry, this Crimson Water Scorpion doesn't belong to you." A calm voice came from behind him, causing the middle-aged man to pause and look up in the direction the voice came from.

A young man in a purple robe walked lazily toward him with his hands behind his head. Beside him stood a solemn old man, and behind him were a golden-armored Stone Monkey wielding a staff and a masked man in black. The three followed closely behind.

In an instant, the middle-aged man's mind was filled with the word: spoiled brat.
