Boom!
Jiang Yi was lucky: when he tried to bury himself alive, the blocked-up cave tunnel suddenly exploded—sending those mud and stones in all directions violently. It just happened that those mud and stones hit onto the incoming demonic beast.
It was an extremely odd-looking demonic beast: it was covered in black-colored scales, and it had this sharp cone-shaped head, with whiskers on the top of the mouth. The body was like an ox with four limbs and a hook-like tail. The pupils were green, and it let out a subtle glow in the dark—which was exceptionally bright in this pitch-black cave.
As the dust settled, the assassins, who originally wanted to rush into the tunnel, were filled with shock by then! With a single glance, they saw that within the cave were two green eyes, glaring at them with wrath and oppression.
Where is the kid?
As they were constantly blasting on the fallen mud and stones, they didn’t know what was happening on the other side. Right now, they were all rather confused. Did Jiang Yi get eaten by this demonic beast? But Jiang Yi was rather formidable. He shouldn’t have been eaten this fast, right?
To retreat or to advance?
This was a question that they didn’t need to consider. Tier-one demonic beasts all had low intelligence: in their eyes, all humans looked the same. It originally thought that Jiang Yi was together with the rest of these guys. However, seeing their count, it naturally chose to attack this group first—for posing much more a threat to it.
Its body turned into a black-colored spirit and flew towards them. In a blink of the eye, it was already in front of them, opening its mouth and revealing the mouthful of chilling sharp fangs. Along with its breath, a foul stench brushed against the entire group.
Ying Ba, you guys back off! Lao Er, your team of six shall deal with this demonic beast. The kid must be hidden inside! Do it quickly!
Jiang Yi was buried, but he could still hear the martial artist—who was at the first stage of Purple Mansion Realm—clearly. Ying Ba? Could it be members of the Ying Clan? Were these people sent by Qian Wanguan?
Ku-Ku!
The demonic beast let out an odd sound and fearlessly rushed towards the group. It ignored the attacks from its surroundings and clawed at one of them viciously.
Ah!
A miserable scream was heard when half of the person’s body got clawed into a bloody mess by the demonic beast. He was pressed on the ground and witnessed that red massive mouth biting down on his head.
Not good! This demonic beast is at the brink of evolution, and its strength is about the same as a tier-two demonic beast. Its defense is too tough! All of you, back off! Let me do it!
When the Purple Mansion Realm martial artist saw that his men’s attack could only drop a few scales, he instantly exclaimed in fear. His arm might have been seriously injured by Jiang Yi earlier, but he couldn’t care anymore. A scarlet essence force revolved his other palm like a fire dragon, and he slammed it at the demonic beast.
Bang!
The combat power of a Purple Mansion Realm wasn’t something a Cast Tripod Realm could compare with. As the palm strike landed firmly on the body of the demonic beast, it caused the demonic beast—which weighed several hundred pounds—to crash into the cavern walls. The insides of the cave shook again as countless mud and stones fell from above.
Ku-Ku!
Dozens of scales were blown away from the body of the demonic beast, and green blood was oozing out from the wounded area. Those pair of green eyes was now even more furious; it then skimmed towards the group in a frenzy. This demonic beast had some intelligence: it didn’t target the Purple Mansion Realm martial artist. Instead, it turned into a phantom to attack the other martial artists.
A tragic scene occurred. Apart from the Purple Mansion Realm martial artist, no one else was able to inflict any serious wounds on this demonic beast. But every time this demonic beast attacked, it would cause them fatal injuries. Most importantly, the demonic beast didn’t fear death—the more injuries it sustained, the more violent and brutal it would get.
Bstard! Let off my brothers and come at me!
When the Purple Mansion Realm martial artist saw his comrades getting into a bloodbath, his eyes were instantly filled with wrath. But his body was injured, which reduced his movement speed. What’s more, the cave tunnel was spacious; and his men were everywhere. He didn’t have enough time to catch up to the demonic beast.
Big brother, save me!
Miserable screams could be heard constantly. Jiang Yi didn’t even need to see to know that it was a purgatory outside his mud-stone den. His body didn’t even move an inch as he held his breath and counted in his heart. Six, seven, eight…
According to the different screams from outside, he was silently analyzing the situation of the battle. It was a situation rather delightful for him: in just this short period of time—out of the thirteen attackers—ten were either severely injured or dead. It seemed like his bet with his life came out with a satisfactory result.
Boom!
Ku-Ku!
The demonic beast let out a furious roar again; it was obvious that it had been blown away again. Jiang Yi was silently surprised. As from this sound of it, the demonic beast was rather frail now. With the demonic beast severely injured now, it was about to release its demonic arts soon.
As expected!
Like what Jiang Yi thought, the demonic beast let out a few more odd shouts, and the remaining scales detached themselves from the demonic beast’s body. All of the scales transformed into black-colored blades and shot in all directions.
Lao Er, Lao San, be careful!
The Purple Mansion Realm martial artist already retreated outside before the demonic beast began to roar. His reaction speed was fast enough, but the other two were slightly late. One of them had his legs severed by one of the scales, and the other had a scale shot into his abdomen, which forcefully split his abdomen opened.
Clang-clang!
A metallic clash could be heard on the other side of the mud pile, and a figure emerged from it. Jiang Yi had no choice but to make a move: if he had continued to lay still, the scale would have pierced his body.
Ku-Ku!
After releasing the demonic arts, the demonic beast was extremely frail; and it didn’t force itself to fight anymore. It retreated deep into the cave. Jiang Yi didn’t chase after it and was even grateful towards this demonic beast. His body rushed out of the cave like a violent dragon. On his way out, his Green Destiny Sword glimmered as it pierced the throat of every martial artist which had yet to die completely.
Since this group of people wanted to kill him, it was logical that he wanted to kill them back.
Swish!
The Purple Mansion Realm martial artist panicked as he saw Jiang Yi approaching fast. He didn’t have any more strength left to fight and frantically shot out of the cave.
Are you trying to escape now?
Jiang Yi’s eyes were cold. He channeled a wisp of black essence force to his feet, and his speed drastically increased. This martial artist was initially injured by him and had an even worse condition after fighting with the demonic beast. His speed was at least two folds slower than before. Just as he exited the cave, Jiang Yi caught up to him.
Accept your fate! Overflow Rain Sword—Summer Rain Downpour!
A killing aura surged from Jiang Yi’s body as the Green Destiny Sword shined brightly. It instantly produced several tens of sword shadows and thrust towards the back of the Purple Mansion Realm martial artist!
When the victim glanced behind him, he saw the sky covered by sword shadows and couldn’t discern which one was the real sword. With the sword shadows pouring down like a storm, there was nowhere to evade.
Jiang Yi, stop! You dare kill within the vicinity of the college?
Suddenly, a shout was heard. A middle-aged mentor—that was dressed in a robe that was as white as the moon—flashed out from the nearby shrubs with an expression filled with anger.
Mentor Zhao?
Jiang Yi glanced over, and his eyes were now filled with even more killing intent. His Green Destiny Sword didn’t have any intention of stopping as it pierced into the head of the Purple Mansion Realm martial artist, causing instant death.
How dare you!
Mentor Zhao was infuriated as his essence force gushed out from his body. The power of a martial artist at the eighth stage of the Purple Mansion Realm was overwhelming. With a single step, his body rushed towards Jiang Yi like a cheetah. He shouted with a voice overflowing with killing aura,
Jiang Yi, you dare kill in front of me? I shall serve out the college rules and execute you right now!
