Chapter 48: So Exciting

Yun Yi hurried over and happened to see this scene. With his keen eyesight, he quickly noticed that both the Iron Spotted Tiger and the young man had reached the third grade of the Innate Realm.

However, the Iron Spotted Tiger had a strong inherent advantage; its body was as tough as steel, covered in iron-like skin, glimmering coldly. With the fierce energy of a mighty tiger, it was much stronger in both physical strength and power, far surpassing any ordinary human of the same level.

Although they were both at the third grade of the Innate Realm, the young man was no match for the Iron Spotted Tiger. In a direct confrontation, he suffered serious injuries and was now in a precarious situation.

Wow!

The young man, heavily injured, spat out a mouthful of blood, gritted his teeth, and turned to run.

"Roar… You think you can escape? Let this king have you!"

The Iron Spotted Tiger spoke like a person, sticking out its crimson tongue to lick its lips. It leaped several yards, directly pouncing on the young man and tearing a piece of flesh from his shoulder with its sharp claws.

Ah…

The young man let out a heart-wrenching scream, his eyes filled with despair. He knew that today he was destined to lose his life here.

"I never expected that I, Huang Long, would die in Qianyang Mountain. I am not willing to accept this."

Blood was constantly spilling from the young man’s mouth. Despite his immense unwillingness, with his current strength, he could do nothing to change the outcome. The Iron Spotted Tiger felt like a massive mountain pressing down on him. He knew that in the next moment, he might become the Iron Spotted Tiger’s meal.

"It has been a long time since I tasted human flesh. Eating you will make my strength even greater."

The Iron Spotted Tiger’s eyes shined brightly.

In the Lingtian Continent, demon beasts and humans are two major groups, and their battles are very common. Humans hunt demon beasts to obtain their Demon Spirit, while demon beasts eat humans to strengthen their own power, each with their own needs.

The Iron Spotted Tiger opened its huge mouth and lunged at Huang Long’s head.

Huang Long was utterly hopeless and could only helplessly close his eyes, waiting for death to come.

Just then, a white figure appeared like a flash of lightning, bringing a black energy fist that smashed fiercely into the Iron Spotted Tiger.

Bang!

There was a dull sound, like striking iron. The newcomer was so fast, and since the Iron Spotted Tiger was lost in the joy of eating, it didn’t notice anything around. Even it couldn’t react in time, and its huge body was already sent flying by that punch.

Ow!

The Iron Spotted Tiger’s body landed several meters away, creating a big pit in the ground.

The Iron Spotted Tiger, furious, turned around with an extremely fierce glare. Although that punch was powerful, the Iron Spotted Tiger was tough and thick-skinned, and since it didn’t hit a vital spot, it didn’t cause any serious injury.

"Alright, another one! Such strong blood energy is quite rare. If I eat you, my power will immediately break through to the fourth grade of the Innate Realm."

When the Iron Spotted Tiger saw Yun Yi, its anger was mixed with a trace of joy, because it found that this white-clothed boy had blood energy at least ten times stronger than the previous young man. A first grade of the Innate Realm human had blood energy that reached such a terrifying level, even exceeding its own, which was truly rare.

The blood energy of someone like Yun Yi is undoubtedly a huge attraction for demon beasts.

At that moment, the yellow dragon, lying on the ground in despair, slowly opened his eyes and saw a boy in white next to him. The yellow dragon knew that he had just walked around the gates of death, and it was this boy who saved him at the critical moment of life and death.

"Brother, be careful, this tiger is too strong."

The yellow dragon struggled to sit up from the ground. He didn’t have time to thank him and directly reminded him.

The yellow dragon noticed that Yun Yi’s cultivation was only at the first grade of the Innate Realm. He didn’t know how such a level of skill had saved him from the Iron Spotted Tiger, but for now, this boy in white was his only hope for survival.

Yun Yi paid no attention to the yellow dragon. Without saying a word, he shook his body and charged at the Iron Spotted Tiger with the force of thunder.

Yun Yi was not a kind-hearted person, nor did he always carry a compassionate heart. The reason he took action at the crucial moment was not to save someone, but to deal with the Iron Spotted Tiger.

His cultivation had reached the peak of the first grade of the Innate Realm, just a step away from the second grade. As long as he refined a third-grade Innate Realm demon beast’s Demon Spirit, his cultivation would immediately advance to the second grade of the Innate Realm.

The Iron Spotted Tiger in front of him happened to be at the third grade of the Innate Realm, which was exactly what Yun Yi was looking for. Since he was determined to kill the Iron Spotted Tiger, saving someone in the process was understandable.

Moreover, this yellow dragon, having reached the third grade of the Innate Realm at such a young age, could be considered very frightening. At least in Qizhou State, there could not be such a person.

This yellow dragon must be a talented master from Xuanzhou State at the other end of Qianyang Mountain. Yun Yi’s goal this time is Xuanzhou State, but he knows nothing about it. By saving the yellow dragon, he might gather some information, especially about the Yanwu family.

Roar…

The Iron Spotted Tiger roared fiercely. It lifted its tiger paw and aimed to grab Yun Yi. Even though it had been knocked away by a punch earlier, the Iron Spotted Tiger still did not take Yun Yi seriously, as Yun Yi was only at the first grade of the Innate Realm, two levels below itself. With the unique advantages of demon beasts, the Iron Spotted Tiger was very confident.

Bang!

Yun Yi’s iron fist was unstoppable. A black light flickered around his fist as it heavily collided with the Iron Spotted Tiger’s paw.

Snap!

At the moment their fists and paws crashed together, the sound of bones breaking rang out, very piercing.

Under the shocked gaze of the yellow dragon, the Iron Spotted Tiger was once again sent flying by Yun Yi. The Iron Spotted Tiger’s paw was also twisted by Yun Yi’s punch, covered in blood.

"Oh my goodness."

The yellow dragon was stunned. He rubbed his eyes hard, doubting that something was wrong with his vision.

The difference was two levels. To break Iron Spotted Tiger’s claw with one punch was simply ridiculous. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, who could believe what was happening in front of him?

The direct collision of their bodies was shocking. The Iron Spotted Tiger had tough skin and strong bones, making its body incredibly powerful. Yet this boy, who seemed to appear out of nowhere, actually managed to overpower the Iron Spotted Tiger with the first grade of the Innate Realm.

This was too exciting!

"This is impossible. This cannot be happening."

The Iron Spotted Tiger roared. It glared at Yun Yi, unable to accept the truth. Everything felt like a dream, but the sharp pain from its broken claw told it this was not a dream.

"Just a foolish tiger. Do you really think you can eat me? You should look at your own teeth first."

Yun Yi was full of confidence and fierce energy. He gave the Iron Spotted Tiger no time to react and attacked again, this time using the Dark Dragon Hand.
