Chapter 153 One Against Three

As Shen Qing looked at the cave entrance, a slow and steady round of applause came from there.

"Slap, slap, slap."

Compared to humans, a burly demon, standing two meters tall with a tiger's head and a human body, emerged from the darkness.

The giant ape and giant scorpion followed closely on either side like two guards, their sixth-rank aura bursting forth without any concealment.

"His strength is indeed quite good."

Tiger Hunter lowered his hand and glanced at the scattered remains of demons on the ground. "These trash may not be worth mentioning in terms of strength, but they can be dealt with in an instant. No wonder they were able to kill wolves and snakes."

These ordinary demons were merely used by Tiger Hunter to test Shen Qing's strength.

After all, if a real fight breaks out, a battle between sixth-rank officials would be nothing more than cannon fodder, completely useless.

"but----"

Tiger Hunter grinned, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth. "You don't actually think I'm on the same level as those trash, do you?"

Before he finished speaking, the giant ape standing beside him, which was at least eight meters tall, suddenly charged out, causing the earth to tremble.

The giant ape's fist was bigger than Shen Qing's entire body.

However, facing this giant ape that excelled in strength, Shen Qing had no intention of dodging and also threw a punch to meet it.

"boom!"

The moment the two fists collided, a shockwave was visible to the naked eye, but the next second, the giant ape's massive body was sent flying backward.

It crashed heavily into the mountain, and the already hollowed-out mountain collapsed with a loud "boom," causing the area near the cave entrance to cave in.

Countless pebbles were scattered.

Hit by the falling rocks, the giant scorpion, which had already circled around to the side to prepare for a sneak attack, froze in place and dared not charge forward again.

It even uncontrollably took a few steps back on all four legs.

"That's an outrageous amount of strength."

The tiger hunter, who was also preparing to launch a sneak attack, was taken aback and stopped on a tree.

A normal sixth-grade initial level demon's strength is about 40,000 jin. The demons of the Absolute Spirit Grassland only cultivate their physical bodies, so they are stronger, probably between 50,000 and 60,000 jin.

Even under such circumstances, that foolish ape demon was still crushed.

In other words, this kid's strength is at least 70,000 jin, or even close to 80,000 jin, and his pure strength is not inferior to his.

Before Tiger Hunter could figure it out, Shen Qing had already taken the initiative to attack with his big gun.

"Whoosh!"

Faced with a shot aimed directly at his throat, Tiger Hunter dodged to the side, his right hand instinctively reaching for the gun barrel, intending to break the gun with one hand.

Suddenly, a sharp pain came from my palm.

An unknown force easily tore through his protective aura, forcing Tiger Hunter to let go.

Shen Qing, however, pressed his advantage relentlessly, firing shot after shot.

After several exchanges, Tiger Hunter became increasingly alarmed, realizing that he was completely at a disadvantage.

The human before him was not only nearly as strong as him, but also possessed a powerful armor-piercing ability, which hampered his movements.

If he hadn't been so perceptive and hadn't mastered the "momentum," he probably would have been injured long ago.

However, the other two great demons were not so lucky or strong. The giant ape, relying on its thick skin, tried to restrain Shen Qing, but a golden light flashed and it had one of its arms cut off.

"roar!!"

He roared, clutching his broken arm as he stumbled backward, then lost his balance and fell, crushing several trees.

The giant scorpion tried to use its tail to poison the creature amidst the chaos.

It circled behind Shen Qing, and the poisonous stinger unexpectedly hit its mark, but had no effect whatsoever.

Instead, Shen Qing, without even turning his head, swept his spear out, severing its tail as well, splattering green blood all over the ground.

The two great demons were almost completely powerless.

After another clash between Shen Qing and Hu Lie, the two temporarily separated.

Tiger Hunter frowned as he looked at the other two great demons, but Shen Qing gave them no chance to catch their breath.

As soon as he created some distance, the spear in his hand disappeared, replaced by a large bow. He drew back the bowstring, ready to finish off the two wounded demons.

Of course, if the tiger hunter goes to rescue the demon, then aim for him.

Golden light gathered on the bowstring, transforming into a sharp arrow, ready to be released at any moment.

But this was also an opportunity for Tiger Hunter. He had no intention of saving the demon, so he sacrificed the other useless creatures to create an opportunity for him to attack.

This is a win-win situation no matter how you look at it!

"Whoosh!"

Tiger Hunt unleashed its full power, its figure flashing to Shen Qing's side, its sharp claws slicing through the air as it swung down.

At that moment, Shen Qing was holding the bow with both hands and had no time to react.

However, as two sounds of air being torn apart rang out simultaneously, one was a golden arrow flying out, and the other came from behind Shen Qing.

A pair of arms, which appeared out of nowhere, held long spears and thrust them straight into the tiger hunter's chest.

"Where did these arms come from?!"

Tiger Hunter's pupils contracted sharply. He desperately changed direction in the air, but he only barely avoided vital points. The spear tip still disrupted his momentum and slashed through his chest.

Tiger Hunter retreated rapidly, one hand covering the deep wound that had stained half of his body red.

His eyes were filled with shock and confusion.

He had a general understanding of the innate abilities of supernatural beings, which were limited to only one type. But hadn't the other party just unleashed a metal-attribute attack?

Why can it also change into multiple arms?

This was hardly a systemic capability; caught off guard, I was nearly pierced through the heart, even though I hadn't seen the opponent use it.

Use talismans.

Tiger Hunter felt a chill for the first time. He had seen geniuses before, but this was completely beyond his comprehension.

He instinctively took a step back, then suddenly let out a huge roar that echoed through the mountains, shaking down many rocks.

"It's alright, we still have a trump card—" Tiger Hunter reassured himself.

Shen Qing instinctively tried to defend himself, but found that although the sound was deafening, it had no lethality whatsoever.

"Not a sonic attack?"

He frowned slightly. This was not the attack method he had guessed, but a strange unease rose in his heart.

Shen Qing subconsciously looked into the depths of the cave.

Inside the cave, torches flickered.

More than twenty elderly people and a child were tied together with ropes, and the fighting outside caused rubble to fall from the cave walls.

"Yes, is it some powerful being?"

"Keep your voices down, don't get noticed."

The villagers, seeing the two grumbling little demons not far away, realized that Shen Qing might have arrived.

Although they didn't know the specifics, Shen Qing didn't lie to them!

A complex mix of emotions flashed in everyone's eyes: guilt, regret, and a glimmer of hope.

However, with a loud tiger's roar, the little demons chatting nearby changed their expressions, and one of them came over to grab them and drag them out.

Where are you taking us?

Uncle Chen immediately realized something was wrong and questioned loudly.

He fumbled behind his back, a bloodstained, sharp stone in his hand that had already worn the rope apart.

"Why waste so much time talking? You bunch of lowly people, you'll see when you get there!"

Meanwhile, outside the cave, Tiger Hunter finally unleashed his full power.

As he opened his mouth and exhaled, a cloud of black mist surged out, transforming into three illusory figures—two men and one woman—whose appearances and features from before their deaths could still be vaguely discerned.
