Inside the cave.
Little Red was diligently Cultivating.
The dense Spiritual Qi and the small Puppet Soldier placed not far away brought her peace of mind.
Just then.
The previously lifeless small Puppet Soldier suddenly gained a bit of Spiritual Qi and spoke to Little Red:
“Little Red, come to the Safe Zone~”
“Yes~”
Little Red immediately stopped her Cultivation and arranged for another Crimson Patterned Snake to guard the cave.
She then immediately rushed to the Safe Zone.
Passing through the illusion formation, Little Red quickly arrived beneath the Daosheng Qingwen Banyan.
“Alright, everyone’s here. Today, we’re going to rob!”
“Oh? Rob?” Little Squirrel’s eyes lit up.
Even Little Guo let out chirping sounds, showing great excitement.
“Chirp, chirp~ Rob~”
Li Zhuo waved his hand, signaling the little guys to be quiet, and continued:
“According to the Divine Hidden Butterfly’s intelligence, all the strong members of the Pan Mountain Tiger clan have gone to the other side of Wanshou Mountain. Now, only a few old, weak, sick, and disabled members are guarding their territory!”
He pointed in the direction of the Pan Mountain Tiger territory, his eyes sparkling.
“The Pan Mountain Tiger possesses a large, strange stone and a fist-sized seed. Go and retrieve these two treasures!”
After hearing Li Zhuo’s command, Little Squirrel showed a look of disdain: “Isn’t that stealing?”
“…”
After a moment of silence, Li Zhuo gave an awkward laugh: “Stealing doesn’t sound good, does it? Besides, there are still a few old, weak, sick, and disabled Pan Mountain Tigers in their territory; we should take care of them too and bring back a few tiger skins for me.”
Little Red’s eyes lit up!
The Crimson Patterned Snake clan and the Pan Mountain Tiger clan had always been at odds.
When she was still under the former Chi She Clan Leader, she had many conflicts with the Pan Mountain Tiger clan.
But at that time.
Except for the Chi She Clan Leader, the other Scarlet Snakes were all lower in rank than the Pan Mountain Tigers.
This caused them to suffer greatly in battles.
She never thought there would be a time for revenge.
Happy~
After giving the orders, the Divine Hidden Butterfly led the way.
Li Zhi held the Plain Cloud Sword, followed by Little Squirrel, Little Red, Little Hua, and Little Guo.
It was an all-out deployment.
The Pan Mountain Tiger’s territory was not close to the Safe Zone.
Fortunately, there were no powerful Spirit Beasts between the two locations.
The group concealed their figures and moved quickly.
Only one or two days passed.
Everyone had already reached the core area of the Pan Mountain Tiger’s territory.
What made Li Zhuo sigh was.
As a Spirit Beast, the Pan Mountain Tiger was indeed cunning.
Even after leading its clan away from the territory, it still made arrangements.
As soon as Li Zhuo stepped into the Pan Mountain Tiger’s domain, he felt a hint of pressure.
As if being watched by some Vicious Beast.
“This aura is enough to scare away ordinary Spirit Beasts. Luckily, we have Little Butterfly~”
The Divine Hidden Butterfly was indeed the best scout.
Not only did it choose the most concealed and fastest route, but it also perfectly avoided all of the Pan Mountain Tiger’s arrangements.
Allowing them to quietly approach the core area of the Pan Mountain Tiger’s territory.
After traversing through the dense forest for a while longer.
A very flat and open area suddenly appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Around the area were scattered bones of other beasts, emitting a pungent, foul smell.
In the center, three large tigers lay prostrate.
Their brows were lowered, and their tiger skins were loose.
Despite their advanced age, they still exuded a dangerous aura.
Evidently, this was the core area of the Pan Mountain Tiger’s territory.
“Should we take care of these old, weak, sick, and disabled ones first?” Little Squirrel waved his small paws, eager to try.
Li Zhuo, however, shook his head: “I don’t know if these tigers have a way to contact their other clan members, so don’t alert them yet!”
“Hmph!”
Little Squirrel reluctantly retracted his small paws and followed the Divine Hidden Butterfly, bored.
After walking a short distance more.
Immediately adjacent to the area where the tigers were resting, everyone indeed saw a huge stone.
On top of the stone lay a fist-sized seed, emitting a cool, clear light.
Li Zhuo was overjoyed: “It came without any effort! Take it away!”
Little Squirrel pointed at the large stone, then at the few Pan Mountain Tigers not far away: “Do you think those tigers are deaf?”
“Of course not, isn’t that what you’re here for~”
“Ah, this, that…”
The sudden praise made Little Squirrel somewhat incoherent.
He stammered for a long time, unable to form a complete sentence.
He just blushed and stepped towards the area where the Pan Mountain Tigers were resting.
Little Red, meanwhile, circled to the other side, blocking the Pan Mountain Tigers’ retreat.
“Little Guo, hold this seed in your mouth… Don’t eat it, it’s a good thing.”
“Chirp, chirp~ Yes!”
“Little Hua, pay attention to my Azure Wood Art. As soon as the Sword Qi comes out, you start digging up this stone!”
“Yes!”
After giving the orders, Li Zhuo also quietly crept towards the Pan Mountain Tiger’s area.
With a clang, he drew the Plain Cloud Sword.
Since his Transmigration, he seemed to have never had a proper battle.
This time.
Li Zhuo wanted to use Li Zhi’s body to test his sword skills.
Little Squirrel, Little Red, and Li Zhuo stood firm.
Li Zhuo held the Plain Cloud Sword.
He aimed at the oldest Pan Mountain Tiger and softly chanted: “Azure Wood Art!”
Swish!
A pale green Sword Qi instantly reached the Pan Mountain Tiger’s neck!
This experienced Pan Mountain Tiger suddenly felt the fur on its entire body stand on end, as if a great crisis was descending.
It abruptly straightened its body and roared.
Barely moving its neck out of the way.
Puff!
The Sword Qi had arrived, striking directly on the Pan Mountain Tiger’s chest!
Immediately, a deep, bone-visible gash appeared!
Blood was gushing!
This Pan Mountain Tiger’s combat experience was extremely rich.
Even with its chest split open and Sword Qi plundering its vitality.
It still didn’t panic, but roared in anger.
Just as it was about to pounce forward.
It suddenly saw the Human Race in front of it not retreat but advance.
He actually charged straight towards it, wielding his treasured sword!
The Pan Mountain Tiger gave a look to its companions beside it and also charged straight forward.
The other two Pan Mountain Tigers roared but did not help.
Instead, they rushed towards the edge of the core area.
Li Zhuo narrowed his eyes.
That was not the direction of the giant stone.
What were these two Pan Mountain Tigers going there for?
Did they really have a way to contact their clan?
Thinking of this.
Li Zhuo mobilized all his magical power and swung his sword fiercely!
At the same time, he spoke: “Kill them!”
“Yes!”
“Hehe!”
Along with the sound, there were two figures, one brown and one red.
“Scarlet, Scarlet Snake?!”
“Song Ling Rat?”
The two Pan Mountain Tigers suddenly discovered that two Spirit Beasts had abruptly appeared before them.
“Song Ling Rat, you’re actually willing to cooperate with other Spirit Beasts?!”
“Mere Scarlet Snake…”
The two Pan Mountain Tigers knew that this was the most critical moment.
Therefore, they dared not hold back!
The Pan Mountain Tiger roared and immediately mobilized all its spiritual power.
At once, their already very robust bodies actually swelled even further.
Even the patterns on their bodies seemed about to burst.
Facing the one rat and one snake before them, they directly swung their tiger claws.
Little Squirrel snorted coldly and immediately activated his Earth-Suppressing Rat state.
Little Red, even more, did not dodge or evade, revealing her venomous fangs!
