Refining the True from the False: Becoming a God Starting with Devouring a True Dragon

Chapter 74 No one understands tiger demons better than me, I killed him in one strike!

Wang Qi walked back forty paces and drew his bow and nocked an arrow again.

This time,

He carefully sensed the changes within his body as the arrow was released.

His blood and qi surged, and the dragon energy in his chest seemed to be drawn into the arrow.

boom!

The second arrow burst forth, this time Wang Qi choosing the thickest part of the giant tree.

The arrow still pierced through.

Wang Qi went forward to check again.

This time, the arrow failed to penetrate the giant tree completely.

Wang Qi chiseled a hole in the back of the giant tree and took out the arrow.

The depth is the same as that of the first arrow.

"What a pity. I thought that after learning the White Arrow technique, I would be able to pierce the target 100% of the time and expose the arrowhead."

Wang Qi looked serious.

However, such an arrow was able to almost pierce through a giant tree that was as thick as four people could hug.

Piercing through the body of an ordinary, strong martial artist would be an absolute piece of cake.

To further enhance the power of the White Arrow.

"Either my physical strength will improve, or my archery skills will advance to the next level. For example, reaching the 'Continuous Strike' level, where four arrows fly in quick succession, breaking through defenses with devastating force."

I already have the experience of successfully cultivating the "Hundred Arrows".

To achieve the level of "Sanlian", one must ensure that one's practice movements are standardized enough to gain mastery.

This is naturally much easier compared to breaking through to a higher realm.

Another method is to get a better bow and better arrows.

take it easy.

After finishing his cultivation, Wang Qi returned to the town.

Something's off in town.

Many people are gone.

oh--.

They must have overheard their conversation this morning; the group that went out still hasn't returned by now.

Wang Qi understood immediately.

If they haven't returned by now, and Hong Yucheng and the other two haven't returned either, then it seems they won't be coming back.

Not far away, Fangyu burst out from behind a house.

"Brother Wang."

"It seems my guess yesterday was correct; the tiger demon is in that forest five miles to the east."

"Let's go, before the sun sets."

"Let's go together!"

"So that the tiger demon doesn't realize something's wrong and runs away."

"By then, who knows when we'll be able to catch it again."

Fangyu was still excited, but with a hint of ferocity.

"Avenge Hong Yucheng and Ding Kai!"

Wang Qi glanced at the middle-aged man behind Fang Yu.

He could tell that the other party was at least a martial artist at the Blood Transformation Realm, and to have someone like that traveling with them—"

"it is good."

Wang Qi originally wanted to set off tomorrow morning, but after thinking about it, he decided to travel with the main group instead.

Although Hong Yucheng and Ding Kai are missing, Fang Yu's team still has five internal martial arts masters and one Blood-Moving Realm expert.

Their strength is too formidable.

We can take the risk and give it a try; maybe we can finish the battle before dark.

The remaining warriors gathered in Mopan Town saw that Fangyu and her group from Yangliu County had set off, and they all came out in full force.

More than fifty people marched in a mighty force towards the tiger demon.

This time they were much bolder, unlike Liang Nan and his group who were cautious before.

Extremely fast speed

It can be described as a surprise attack.

Soon,

They had already seen the grove of trees.

In the fading yellow light of the setting sun, they could see the bloodstains on the ground and the faint smell of blood in the air.

"cousin."

As they walked, Jinxiu pointed to the top of their heads.

Everyone looked over.

Hong Yucheng's head, wrapped in clothes, hung from a tree branch, swaying in the cold wind.

"Oh~"

Fangyu immediately knelt on the ground and vomited.

"Damn monster!"

Fangyu calmed down a bit and started cursing.

But then,

She then discovered that her hands were pressed into the blood pit.

The thought of Hong Yucheng's head above her made her vomit again.

The middle-aged man beside him, who was at the Blood Refining Realm, suddenly leaped up, darting left and right between the giant trees, and took Hong Yucheng's head off the branch.

He then tore off a piece of his robe and used it to completely wrap his head.

"Miss."

Only after doing all this did he help Fangyu up.

"Take a deep breath, and you'll get used to it."

"I... I want to avenge Brother Hong and the others!" Fangyu said.

"With dozens of us together, we'll surely be able to slay that tiger demon and avenge Brother Hong and Brother Ding," Jin Cheng comforted her from the side. "Yu'er, just remember not to be reckless later."

Wang Qi stood aside and watched the scene unfold before him.

He didn't expect that,

It's astonishing that a woman like Fangyu could have such a temperament.

That's quite rare.

"Uncle, you'll have to help me later," Fangyu said, looking at the middle-aged man beside her.

"Don't worry."

Uncle nodded, clearly confident in his abilities.

When the group walked forward a few dozen steps and looked at the pool of blood not far away...

Their brows furrowed.

"How many people will this kill?"

Fangyu was shocked.

Jinxiu, standing nearby, suddenly realized, "The legend of that pool is indeed true."

"These blood-red ice crystals freeze in the dead of night. They melt when the two suns are high in the sky, turning into pools of blood—..."

"Ah~"

A scream suddenly came from the woods.

immediately,

A tiger's roar echoed through the entire forest.

This caused the snow on the trees to fall.

Foggy time,

The entire forest seemed to have been hit by a blizzard.

Be careful.

The middle-aged man instantly shielded Fangyu behind him.

"Ah~"

"what!"

A heart-wrenching scream came from ahead.

Left, right, front.·

Wang Qi listened to the direction of the screams to determine the tiger demon's location.

"That's fast!"

He was surprised, then slowly took down the large bow, drew the bow and nocked an arrow, ready to aim at the target at any moment.

Wait until the snow stops.

The bloodstains on the ground were covered by another layer of snow, making it impossible to tell that anyone had walked there.

"What a clever tiger demon!"

Jincheng's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

He then looked at Wang Qi and said, "Young Master Wang, the tiger demon has thick skin and agile movements. Ordinary arrows are useless in its eyes."

"Let's press forward together with close combat later."

"My archery skills are pretty good; I should be able to hurt that tiger demon."

Wang Qi spoke.

"My Jin family has hunted tigers for generations. Do you think we don't know how to deal with tiger demons?" Jinxiu spoke again. "If you're afraid of death, just say you're afraid of death."

"My brother is reminding you to be careful, lest the tiger demon misses its shot and hits one of your own people, making things worse!"

"No need for you to worry about that."

Wang Qi's voice was cold.

This young master Jin was indeed very polite, but his cousin—

It's starting to resemble a brainless villain.

Within three sentences, they would exchange harsh words.

"My cousin was a bit blunt, please forgive her, Young Master Wang." Jin Cheng clasped his hands in a fist salute to Wang Qi.

But at this moment, he had no mind to pay much attention to these personal enemies.

He said succinctly, "When dealing with a tiger demon, in addition to being careful of its pounce and bite, you must be wary of its tail."

"The power of that tail is no less than that of a martial artist of the same level, and it is also exceptionally agile."

"That may not be its most lethal method, but it is the weapon that is most likely to kill its prey."

"Be careful!"

Uncle roared.

The sound of something flying through the air could already be heard.

boom!

A dark shadow crashed to the ground from the upper left.

Its enormous body, nearly three meters tall, was revealed to everyone.

Its eerie green eyes swept over everyone present, and those it saw were filled with dread.

On the tiger demon's hind legs,

An arrow was firmly embedded in his skin, the shaft of which had been broken off at some unknown time.

Strands of blood flowed from the tip of the arrowhead.

"What a heavy arrow."

The tiger demon spoke, looking at Wang Qi, who was holding a large bow.

It felt a strange tremor from Wang Qi, which made it uneasy.

"You are the third human warrior who has been able to leave a scar on me."

"Who are the first two?"

Wang Qi asked.

His own white arrows could pierce even a giant tree that four people could hug.

However, it could only pierce the tiger demon's skin, allowing part of the arrow to sink into its body.

This physique

It truly lives up to its reputation as a tiger demon.

"The first one was a martial artist at the Blood Transformation Realm, but he was too old and too cowardly. He only managed to injure me once, just before he died."

"The second one."

The tiger demon sniffed the air and said, "The head you're holding is it."

"Brother Hong."

.

Fangyu clenched her fists tightly, her heart pounding as she faced the tiger demon.

This tiger demon is terrifying.

The uncle standing to the side was even more shocked.

The moment the tiger demon appeared,

This kid named Wang Qi actually discovered the tiger demon's trail at the same time as me.

Moreover, the arrow possessed enough force to pierce the tiger demon's skin from over thirty paces away.

It has already surpassed the melee attack power of most internal martial arts masters.

No wonder the python king of Heihe County has such a great reputation. "Young Master Wang, later, the two of us will work together."

Uncle spoke up.

"I'll attack, you shoot."

"it is good."

Wang Qi nodded.

This uncle's judgment was very accurate; this tiger demon could definitely not be killed by sheer numbers alone.

Most people probably couldn't even cut its skin or injure its flesh.

and,

This tiger demon is enormous.

My own [powerful aura] weighs about 2,100 jin, and I have already subdued Shi Liang and Xiao Hei.

The remaining amount should be around 1,800 to 1,900 jin.

He wasn't sure if it would be enough.

We need to cut some flesh and bleed some out first.

"What about us?" Jinxiu asked.

"This tiger demon is not something you can handle," Uncle said succinctly.

"Just lend a hand and cause some trouble."

"Do not be greedy for credit, lest you lose your life."

"Uncle, you still underestimate us." This time, Jin Cheng was unusually firm. "No one understands the tiger demon better than us."

"Are you done talking?"

The tiger demon in front of them spoke.

"Now that I've finished talking, I'm going up."

call!

The voice just fell.

The tiger, its form already splattering with blood, pounced forward.

The roar of a tiger came from its mouth.

The force of the shockwave caused the other two internal martial arts masters to momentarily freeze in shock.

next moment,

The tiger's claws slapped at one of the men's faces.

Chew!

The cold glint of the longsword blocked the tiger's claws. In the instant that Uncle kicked the man away, he himself was also swept away by Tiger Vanguard's palm.

"That's some real strength."

Uncle thought to himself.

In his pupils, the Jin siblings had already slid in from both sides, reaching the lower abdomen of Tiger Vanguard.

The two men each brandished their swords.

Go straight for the belly.

Tiger Vanguard slapped a giant tree on one side with one paw, and its entire body actually did a 360-degree spin in mid-air.

The Jin siblings almost dropped their knives in an instant.

In the blink of an eye,

Tiger Vanguard landed, while the Jin siblings had already slid under him, flipped over, and reunited.

The Jin siblings were indeed telling the truth.

He is truly skilled at killing tigers.

The opportunity was seized perfectly.

Unfortunately, he did not achieve anything.

However, on Tiger Vanguard's buttocks,

I don't know when, but another arrow appeared.

"Roar~!"

Tiger Vanguard roared.

Turning back to Wang Qi, the culprit, he said, "You ant who only knows how to shoot arrows! Do you dare to test your strength against me?!"

It roared, but suddenly attacked unexpectedly.

His target was still those two strong men he had previously subdued.

"Why is it still us?!"

The two screamed in despair.

But this time, his uncle and the Jin siblings were not by his side.

In the blink of an eye, one man had half his chest smashed open, while another man's head was gnawed off.

Before dying, he swung his knife at the tiger demon's throat, but instead of breaking its throat, his knife shattered.

In the blink of an eye,

The two strongmen from Yangliu County had already died.

"This great demon is simply beyond human capabilities to defeat..."

From the forest came the sound of collapse.

Those were martial arts practitioners who came with Fangyu and the others. They thought they could rely on their numbers to kill the tiger demon and then get a share of the spoils.

As a result, he encountered two strong martial artists and was instantly killed.

Many people began to retreat in despair, shouting that this great demon was invincible.

"This tiger demon is probably at the third rank."

Fangyu was shocked.

"Second tier," Uncle said. "If it were third tier, I would have been injured by that palm strike."

"However, the tiger demon was originally the king of demons, and few demons of the same level could rival it. It can be regarded as a third-level demon."

"A second-tier snake demon only weighs a few hundred pounds, while this tiger demon looks to weigh one or two thousand pounds."

"It's easy to imagine."

"The tiger demon is powerful; we cannot defeat it by force!" the Jin siblings cried out hoarsely.

"Miss, you should stay by Young Master Wang's side and protect him."

Uncle's words were very tactful.

It was clear that they didn't want Fangyu to take this risk.

"Can."

Wang Qi agreed, since three people were needed to fight the tiger demon and bleed it.

"kill!"

The division of labor among the four began to change.

Uncle, the Bloodthirsty One, acted as a distraction, while the Jin siblings were responsible for sliding tackles.

Wang Qi was responsible for shooting arrows and drawing blood.

After several rounds of attack and defense...

Only Uncle's hands trembled slightly; Wang Qi and the other two were unharmed.

On the other hand, the tiger demon

It was just that he had six more arrow holes in his body.

Troublesome!

Suddenly, the Jin siblings each took out two small medicine bottles and applied them to the blade.

Chew~

Another sliding tackle.

Jin Cheng seized the opportunity and hastily sliced ​​open the man's belly.

unfortunately,

The wound was too shallow to bleed.

But the next moment,

The tiger demon suddenly became irritable.

"Ah~ Hoo~"

Its roars began to become nonsensical and erratic.

"Hahaha---This is the essence blood that my Jin family extracted from the female tiger demon. When injected into the male tiger demon, it will make him go berserk and lose his mind!"

Jin Cheng laughed heartily.

"A tiger demon that has lost its mind may be stronger, but it is also more likely to expose its weaknesses."

"Kid, you're really good at putting pressure on me!"

Uncle said in a deep voice, almost bursting into a tirade.

If you have too much strength, won't you just end up hitting yourself, the human shield?

boom!

Another claw exploded in front of Uncle.

Snow and clods of earth flew about at such a speed that some clods of earth even embedded themselves directly into the wood.

follow closely,

Uncle's expression changed drastically.

This was because after the tiger demon went berserk, it charged straight at Wang Qi.

Yes!

After losing his mind, the tiger demon became completely disorganized.

Then all that's left is holding a grudge!

Of all those present, only Wang Qi was deeply hurt by it.

"Miss, run!"

Uncle roared.

They immediately gave chase.

But the crazed tiger demon charged wildly, its speed surpassing his by two points!

Wang Qi saw the tiger demon approaching menacingly.

Fangyu's face turned deathly pale. Instead of running away, she drew her sword and stood in front of Wang Qi.

"I am my brother's bodyguard; there's no reason for me to run away!"

She gritted her teeth,

It seemed he intended to die before Wang Qi.

"Brother Wang, you said before that if you cut off a piece of its flesh, you would have a way to kill it, right?"

Fangyu roared.

"yes.

Wang Qi was slightly surprised by Fang Yu's reaction, and his impression of her changed again.

"Then I will cut off this piece of meat."

Fangyu shouted "Silica ya ya" to bolster her courage.

then,

Wang Qi then saw two streams of purple energy flowing from his nose, swirling around the longsword in his hand.

!

Fangyu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, which landed on the sword.

The purple aura on the sword instantly entered the longsword.

Visible to the naked eye,

The longsword began to swell.

boom!

The sword shattered into dozens of pieces.

But it didn't fall.

Between the fragments, purple energy seemed to solidify and bind them together.

What was gained was...

An extra-long sword that has expanded to more than twice its original size!

"A fleeting purple aura borrowed from the sun's radiance!"

boom!

The longsword, enveloped in purple aura, instantly shone brightly.

During this brief opening, Wang Qi had already fired four arrows in quick succession!

Four arrows were aimed directly at his eyes!

But it was struck down by its raised claws and pierced into its flesh.

Make it feel pain, and its movements will become slightly distorted.

The tiger demon in front of him pounced just two meters away.

Fangyu cleaved down with her sword!

The tiger demon, however, neither dodged nor evaded.

boom!

The longsword shattered upon impact.

The tiger demon's claws, which were aimed at the longsword, were split in two from the middle.

The slash spread to his forearm.

This sword,

He severed half of his forearm.

"Oops, I missed!"

Upon seeing this, Fangyu, who had fallen to the ground, turned pale again, her face completely drained of color.

She originally thought she could cut off one of the tiger demon's forearms, along with all the flesh, just like a big chicken leg.

result--

The difference is minuscule.

Is it possible that I'll die here because of this slight difference?

The outside world is too cruel.

These powerful demons are too ferocious!

before,

The tiger demon's back flashed past him as it pounced on the archer.

I'm going to kill you!

The tiger demon roared and leaped its massive body onto the small hill where Wang Qi was standing.

Then---

The tiger demon's eyes suddenly cleared, and the power that had made its heart tremble amplified infinitely, sweeping over its entire body.

His body seemed to be frozen in place.

And the archer before them,

His pupils had turned golden at some point.

The bow and arrow in his hand had been replaced by a broadsword at some point.

like,

Something's not right.

"You've really worked hard."

Wang Qi uttered a sound.

boom!

A fiery serpent slowly rose from the blood-stained longsword.

next moment,

It then transformed into a giant fire python as long as its body.

"It's not hard work—"

The tiger demon answered instinctively.

I wasn't talking about you.

Wang Qi's voice fell simultaneously with the Fire Serpent Technique in his hand.

Then·--·

The crazed tiger demon died obediently.

The head was smoothly severed and rolled onto the snow.
