The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 775 - 773: Purple-Gold Demon Tiger!

Chapter 775: Chapter 773: Purple-Gold Demon Tiger!

Lin Bai stepped into the Light Gate, as a dazzling golden light emerged before him.

When the glow faded, Lin Bai found himself surrounded by dense forestry, towering trees hiding the skies, and chilly drafts slipped through the leaves.

"This place must be Lingfan Mountain."

"Well, let’s first find a secluded place and get ready to face the Giant God Clan."

A flash flickered in Lin Bai’s eyes, his silhouette blurred, and he dashed into the woods at breakneck speed.

At this moment, Lin Bai had to figure out the concealed places in Lingfan Mountain. That way, when the intent of the Giant God manifested, it wouldn’t cause too much of a commotion.

Lin Bai moved at a blinding speed, leaving only an illusion of himself behind in the woods.

"Ahhh..."

"Save me!"

"Don’t kill me!"

Just then, desperate screams echoed in Lin Bai’s ear.

"Hmm, is someone fighting? But this voice sounds terrified, more like pleading for mercy..." Lin Bai instantly headed towards the direction of the voice.

About a kilometer ahead in the forest, three warriors were frantically rushing towards Lin Bai, their faces pale with terror, tattered clothes, and three unnerving gashes on their chests and backs.

These claw marks didn’t look like the work of a warrior, instead, more like a demon beast...

Upon this realization, Lin Bai looked towards the origin of the warriors’ fear.

As expected, a Demon Tiger was chasing behind the three, giving them a hard time.

This Demon Tiger, Lin Bai recognized, "It’s a Purple Crystal Demon Tiger!"

This Purple Crystal Demon Tiger was as hard-bodied as iron, its hide a premium material for forging Fifth-Rank Defense Spirit Tools. Such Demon Tigers have become scarce in the Martial World, generally coveted by Artifact Refiners.

"It’s a Divine Elixir Realm Demon Beast!"

"One of the three Human Elixir Realm Beasts from the Miracle Ridge placed in Lingfan Mountain!"

Lin Bai’s eyes sparkled, a hint of excitement in his gaze.

If Lin Bai wanted to practice in the Miracle Ridge, he must pass the special Miracle Ridge assessment, requiring a thousand Pass Tokens. Hence, this Demon Tiger right before him represented ten Pass Tokens.

"I have certainly killed enough Human Elixir Realm warriors, I wonder how much stronger a Human Elixir Realm Demon Beast is compared to them?"

Lin Bai pondered for a bit but decided to act.

After all, this purple gold demon tiger had virtually walked right into his trap. How could he let it go?

Moreover, ten points equal to ten Pass Tokens were charming enough for Lin Bai.

"Save me!"

"Save me!"

"Don’t eat me, don’t eat me..."

The three warriors were in a desperate frenzy, attempting to escape.

"Brother, save me, save us."

At this moment, the three fleeing men spotted Lin Bai and promptly changed their course towards him.

Lin Bai stepped forth from the woods, saying indifferently, "You guys can go, leave this Demon Tiger to me."

Their faces lit up with relief as they respectfully said, "Thank you for saving our lives. If there comes a day when you need us, we will repay your kindness with all we have."

"We’ll surely repay your kindness!"

"Thank you."

All three men thanked him in their relief.

After expressing their gratitude, they immediately left the woods.

Without giving the three men another glance, Lin Bai headed straight for the purple gold Demon Tiger.

Roar—

The forest echoed with a loud tiger roar!

The roar of the Purple Crystal Demon Tiger, imbued with the terrifying force of the Human Elixir Realm, was like a heavy mountain breaking all the trees in its path.

This wave of sound hit Lin Bai squarely.

If it had been an ordinary warrior, they would have definitely been seriously injured by the looming force in the Purple Gold Demon Tiger’s roar. However, after a slight tremble, Lin Bai managed to neutralize the force coming from the sonic waves.

The Purple Gold Demon Tiger watched, his eyes full of surprise.

The Demon Beast’s intelligence at the Human Elixir Realm was almost akin to that of a full-grown adult.

The moment the Purple Gold Demon Tiger roared, it noticed that Lin Bai was not as simple as he seemed.

Drip, drip, drip!

The Demon Tiger glared at Lin Bai, as saliva continuously dripped from its fearsome teeth onto the ground.

It seemed to be ravenous, just like a warrior who hadn’t eaten for a while.

Roar—

The Demon Tiger turned its head to look at the escaping warriors, avarice gleaming in its eyes.

With a stride, the Purple Gold Demon Tiger bolted towards the direction of the fleeing warriors.

The Purple Gold Demon Tiger seemed to have realized that battling Lin Bai would prove challenging and decided to abandon the fight in favor of preying on the three warriors to pacify its hunger.

"Planning to flee? Your opponent is me!"

Seeing the Purple Gold Demon Tiger trying to run, Lin Bai grew upset.

He produced the Qingge Sword. With a flash of sharp light in his eyes, a Sword Aura was unleashed.

A resounding Sword Aura, far louder than any celestial body, heavily struck the Purple Gold Demon Tiger.

Roar—

"Keep away! I don’t have time to tangle with you. After I have had my fill, I’ll come back to fight you properly!"

The Purple Gold Demon Tiger shuddered and quickly shifted away, avoiding Lin Bai’s Sword Aura.

Astonished, Lin Bai chuckled, "You can talk?!"

The Purple Gold Demon Tiger glared at Lin Bai through sharp eyes, "Boy, I’m granting you a path to survival. Don’t provoke me unnecessarily. Just leave."

Lin Bai smirked, "Coincidentally, you don’t want to provoke me, but I want to provoke you."

"Prepare to die!"

With a cold laugh, Lin Bai lunged forward with his sword.

"Dammit! Do you really think you can bully me so easily?"

"Fine, since you’re eager to die, I will finish you off first before I feast on the others!"

With a roaring fury, the Purple Gold Demon Tiger’s massive body quaked as it lashed out its claw.

This swipe, akin to tearing the sky apart, descended.

Lin Bai was taken aback. He smirked, "Heh, a Demon Beast in the first layer of the Human Elixir Realm is indeed much stronger than a warrior at the same stage."

"However, it makes no difference. It just takes a bit more effort."

"Wind and Snow!"

Instantly, Lin Bai laughed continuously while four Sword Qi roared from his hand, devastatingly charging toward the Purple Gold Demon Tiger’s body.

Boom, boom, boom, boom—

Four explosive sounds followed by the splattering of blood echoed through the area.

The Purple Gold Demon Tiger hollered and retreated.

On its body, Lin Bai’s four Sword Qi left four horrifying sword marks!

"Damnable human worm, how dare you harm me! I will tear you to shreds while you’re still alive!"

The severe pain raging over its body drove the Purple Gold Demon Tiger into a frenzy.

A terrifying force began to condense around the Purple Gold Demon Tiger.

"Die!"

A claw swooped down, capable of shattering the heavens.

Faced with the enormous force of this swipe, Lin Bai felt as if this claw of the Purple Gold Demon Tiger could easily rip apart a huge mountain.

This swipe was likely the strongest manifestation of the Purple Gold Demon Tiger’s power— a full display of its cultivation level.

This swipe was determined to tear Lin Bai into pieces!
