Chapter 114 The True Form of Tiger and Leopard
The low whimpering sound squeezed out of Jiang Lingxiu's throat gave Yue Hanzhang a strong sense of déjà vu.

But he was also sure that this was the first time he saw Jiang Lingxiu fall into such a state.

Whether it was a shocking change, the stimulation of the smell, or the pressure from the Taoist monk in person.

This state that induces Jiang Lingxiu's changes is very unique and cannot be replicated.

The sense of déjà vu came quickly and was subtle, yet it was difficult for Yue Hanzhang to grasp.

But Yue Hanzhang did not dwell on this trouble for too long.

In such a crisis situation, it is obvious that losing control is not a good change trend.

At this moment, Yue Hanzhang just wanted to raise his hand and try his best to comfort Jiang Lingxiu beside him.

But facing the pressure from the Taoist priest and the storm formed by the death energy and corpse poison, Yue Hanzhang's body became truly stiff in just a few breaths.

It seemed as if the flames in the Nine Palaces Furnace were about to go out.

All the heat condensed from the energy of qi and blood was wiped out in the strong wind.

So is Yue Hanzhang, and so is Huang Zhishu.

He seemed to be unable to do anything.

His body was gradually turning into an icy shell, and even the cold and dead chill was about to flow through his body and freeze Yue Hanzhang's soul.

Even the emotions of facing death that were about to surge up seemed to be frozen at this moment.

But it was this moment.

"Uh--"

The exacerbated pain that Jiang Lingxiu endured seemed to be getting more and more intense. The whimpering sound squeezed out of her throat was no longer low, but gradually became higher-pitched.

Not only that.

Jiang Lingxiu's body seemed to be able to move freely even in this storm of pressure.

She leaned more on Yue Hanzhang's shoulder in a more dependent posture.

Her face was even very close to Yue Hanzhang's cheek.

But at this moment, Yue Hanzhang felt as if he felt a ball of fire, a blazing flame approaching.

It was in the cold and silent storm, and Jiang Lingxiu's blood was boiling!

Then, when the heat of the flame "bursts".

When Jiang Lingxiu opened his lips slightly, the breath hit his earlobe.

Yue Hanzhang heard her voice as she tried her best to endure the adverse changes. There was even a kind of resentment in that voice, a kind of resentment about the changes in herself, and even pessimism about the future.

Those were the words strung together with great difficulty between gnashing teeth, and those were the melodious tones of crying that could not be concealed.

"Yue Hanzhang, do you know that you are very special? You are the most special person I have ever met."

"You suppressed the very bad side of me."

"You tamed a wild beast, and gradually made my life more colorful."

"That's a color I haven't seen in the past 18 or 19 years..."

"I thought, I thought everything would be fine..."

"That was-that was a nightmare! A nightmare I never want to recall!"

"I even lost my memory during it. I only know that series of nightmares - every time I woke up with difficulty, all I saw was killing - only bestiality accompanied by blood -!"

"I'm so scared. One day I'll fall completely into a dream and turn into a beast, and I'll never wake up again—"

"I don't want this—"

"Run—Yue Hanzhang—don't think too much later—run—!"

"Stay away from me like you would stay away from a battlefield or a group of beasts!"

"If you hadn't run as fast as you did—I want you to know—that wasn't my intention—"

"That's not even me!"

"Yue Hanzhang, I——"

By the end of his words, the extreme sadness and sobbing made it almost impossible for Yue Hanzhang to hear clearly what Jiang Lingxiu was saying.

And it is obvious that in such a life-threatening situation, Jiang Lingxiu still has a lot to say.

But everything came to an abrupt end at this moment.

Her patience had reached its limit.

The weak string called "control" completely broke at this moment.

“Ugh—ah—ah—!”

At this moment, the whimpering sound that was originally low or high in the throat finally turned into an angry roar in the extreme ferocity!

The blazing fireworks seemed to explode violently at this moment!
The vigorous heat seemed to melt and dispel the chill lingering on Yue Hanzhang at this moment.

He was finally able to turn around and face Jiang Lingxiu.

He saw the glow between Jiang Lingxiu's eyebrows blooming in an instant.

It was a bright yellow color that burst forth vigorously amidst the light grayish-white color.

Finally, the bright yellow light, which still had some grayish-white halos, turned into intricate seal patterns that spread out on Jiang Lingxiu's white forehead.

A crown, a crown that does not look as majestic as the purple-gold crown, but is equally real as a Taoist crown!
And Jiang Lingxiu, wearing this bright yellow crown, had a distorted expression at this moment that was a mixture of extreme sadness, inferiority, disgust, anger and other emotions.

She seemed to still retain a trace of sanity amidst the outburst of brutal beastliness.

Looking at the look Yue Hanzhang gave him.

Jiang Lingxiu grinned, as if he wanted to laugh.

But she couldn't make a smooth facial expression. So, in the blink of an eye, she just leaned forward.

It was as if the last part of "Jiang Lingxiu" was in the midst of a fierce storm and at this moment, he kissed Yue Hanzhang goodbye.

In the instant of contact, Jiang Lingxiu suddenly leaned back and bent his body.

At this moment, a truly ferocious aura erupted from Jiang Lingxiu!

She no longer tried her best to be patient and restrained.

She even actively welcomed the outburst of brutal animality and the stimulation of the lingering scent in the air.

She turned in the direction she came from and ran madly towards the evil monk who had a dazed look on his face but was still approaching with his original strange posture.

The bright yellow light that also burst out submerged her running figure.

In that vast light, Jiang Lingxiu's angry roar seemed to have transformed into a truly angry and ferocious beast roar at some point.

"Roar--!"

The storm of death and corpse poison came to an abrupt end in this instant.

Even the monk's pressure disappeared.

Amid the confrontation between the cultivators' qi, Yue Hanzhang resumed his movement. Even Jiang Lingxiu's previous change had already completed the "warm-up" for him.

But Yue Hanzhang's feet were stuck in the spot like nails.

He saw the bright yellow light that was rushing towards the evil monk converge.

He saw a bright oil-colored shadow that replaced Jiang Lingxiu's figure.

The power of shadow condensed into wind blades beside him, and the afterglow of the vast light dotted around him into clusters of cold moonlight.

Riding on the power of wind and fire, it was a collision and confrontation of auras between the top predators and the evil monks.

That is the real shape of a monster.

That's the Shadow Tiger Leopard!

At this moment, Yue Hanzhang suddenly seemed to understand everything.

The unreasonable accumulation of energy and blood in Jiang Lingxiu's body, the ferocious and beast-like side of her expression that was almost inhuman, and her unique talent in pictographic martial arts.

Even including the sense of déjà vu just now.

And the meaning of what she had just said, and what she was about to say but had not finished.

Yue Hanzhang understood everything at this moment!

As a result, Huang Zhishu, who had just come to her senses, stared at her "competitor" in a daze, murmuring in disbelief.

"Zhu Xiang monk? She is actually a Zhu Xiang monk!"

Almost at the moment when Huang Zhishu finished speaking, in the depths of the narrow alley, the mutual attack between the shadowy tigers and leopards and the evil monks had already begun.

In that flashing moment, the struggle in the extraordinary realm was taking place in a way that Yue Hanzhang could not perceive or understand.

The collision of auras seemed mysterious and changeable, and the only thing that appeared in the real field of vision was the collision between the shadow wind blade and the storm of death, and the collision between the cold moon fire and the corpse poison demon fire.

The shadow tiger and leopard were at a disadvantage almost instantly.

The difference in pure strength is fully reflected in the use of wind blades and fireworks.

Perhaps it was because he caught up with this group of people that some kind of obsession in his soul had begun to dissipate. In the process of returning to life, as well as facing the stimulation of the shadowy tigers and leopards, the dullness on the face of the evil monk gradually dissipated.

There was an increasing wisdom and agility in his eyes.

This change also made his attack more fierce.

Even under the attack of the wind blades and moonfire of the shadow tiger and leopard, the evil monk's approaching speed was even faster than just now.

Close, closer!

But Yue Hanzhang had no intention of turning around and leaving, or running away.

How could he escape after seeing all this clearly?
But if I don't escape, I don't want to wait for death.

What can I do by myself?
What can I do for myself and Shadow Tiger Leopard?
It was during this moment of thinking.

When the evil monk approached and reached a certain distance close enough.

When Yue Hanzhang's illusory vision of the quiet world overlapped with reality and he looked towards the evil cultivator.

What he saw was not the purple-gold Taoist crown.

What he saw was a ball of purple-gold thread floating between the man's eyebrows. What he saw were nine purple-gold silk threads extending from the thread ball and piercing straight into the nine major orifices of the living body.

At the same time, the living body was constantly covered with bright red blood, as if it was being absorbed by the suspended purple-gold thread ball through the silk threads running through the body.

In the constant interweaving and mixing of silk threads and blood.

The evil monk seemed more and more like a complete whole, becoming more and more intelligent and agile.

Is this the essence of all its evil changes?

Yue Hanzhang's gaze fell on the nine major orifices.

With the melody of mechanical music and the tremendous computing power, can one break through the vital point of a cultivator in one blow?

What if I can't cooperate with the Shadow Tiger and Leopard to accomplish this?

And at this moment, in the midst of fighting and attacking, the shadow tigers and leopards that have been stimulated to be fierce, furious, and crazy by the special aura between heaven and earth, can they still resonate with their mechanized minds and find the tacit understanding with their animal side?
Everything is unknown.

But Yue Hanzhang understood that in this life-and-death crisis, he had to do something, something that could break the impasse!
Trust the mechanical brain! Trust the mechanized mind! Trust Jiang Lingxiu! Trust the shadow tiger and leopard!
Believe in everything you have experienced!
trust yourself!

So, in the next moment, facing the angry retreating step by step of the shadowy tiger and leopard, facing the evil monk approaching at high speed, Yue Hanzhang was like an arrow shot from a bow.

Fly out!
