He began his journey to becoming a true immortal by causing others to fail their tribulations.

After watching Xiao Meng leave, Xun Yan couldn't help but start to ponder:

"Something's wrong with the forest? This is the outermost area of ​​the forest, where there are generally only level one or so monsters."

However, a second-tier demonic beast has appeared... We still need to continue investigating. If there were only one second-tier demonic beast, it would be more normal.

However, if more second-tier demonic beasts appear, then it can be confirmed that there is indeed a problem in the Star Moon Great Forest.

Thinking of this, Xun Yan lightly leaped and landed steadily on the top of a tree, swaying gently in the wind as if weightless.

Looking around carefully, Xun Yan didn't see anything amiss.

However, through this vantage point, he still managed to expand the system map considerably.

And at the edge of the map, a point of light is slowly flashing.

Xun Yan moved his mind and clicked on the information of this point of light:

[Target: Scorpion-tailed Tiger (Second-tier Monster)]

[Introduction: Although forced to undergo tribulation, the Scorpion-Tailed Tiger has already withstood two tribulation lightning strikes, and its probability of successfully passing the tribulation is very high.]

[It is recommended that the host rush there as soon as possible to disrupt the tribulation process; otherwise, it is best to stay away.]

"Forced to undergo tribulation? The Scorpion-tailed Tiger, a second-tier demonic beast, can be considered a top predator in a certain area. Who could force it to undergo tribulation?"

Other, even more powerful demonic beasts? Or human cultivators? Never mind, there's no point in thinking about that now.

Let's hurry up and disrupt its tribulation, then grab some of the system's rewards.

Thinking of this, Xun Yan immediately summoned his flying sword and flew towards the Scorpion-tailed Tiger.

After flying for over a thousand meters, Xun Yan saw a chaotic scene, which was quite common in the Star Moon Great Forest.

There was a gap in the chaotic pile of earth, which looked to be more than ten meters wide. It is very likely that the scorpion-tailed tiger crawled into the ground through this gap.

Xun looked up at the sky, which was still clear and blue.

"It seems the Scorpion-tailed Tiger must have burrowed many meters underground, and the tribulation thunderclouds simply gathered underground."

Just like when Han Xi was undergoing his tribulation in his cave, thunderclouds appeared directly on the ceiling of the cave.

It seems this scorpion-tailed tiger does have some intelligence; it knows how to use the terrain to conceal itself while undergoing its tribulation…

Just as Xun Yan was thinking about this, he clearly felt a tremor coming from the ground.

Then flames erupted from the ground, like a volcanic eruption.

"This flame, this feeling... could it be Xiao Meng? Holy crap! Take it easy, let me leech off some of the rewards."

Xun Yan raised an eyebrow slightly, then used his earth concealment technique to burrow down.

After drilling for several hundred meters, Xun Yan finally arrived at the place where the Scorpion-tailed Tiger was undergoing its tribulation.

This is a huge space, estimated to be several thousand square meters in size and over ten meters high.

Judging from the traces around, it is very likely that this place was dug out by a scorpion-tailed tiger or some kind of monster.

Just as Xun Yan had predicted, at the top of this space, tribulation thunderclouds were slowly surging, and the thunder was deafening.

At this moment, Xiao Meng was locked in a fierce battle with the Scorpion-Tailed Tiger.

The scorpion tiger's tail is over five meters long, and its shoulder height exceeds two meters. The scorpion tail that emits black smoke is twice the length of its body.

She looked formidable, but Xiao Meng still managed to suppress her opponent relentlessly, and became increasingly valiant as the fight progressed.

With a flick of its tail, the scorpion tiger unleashed a torrent of dark green venom straight at Xiao Meng.

Seeing this, Xiao Meng showed no fear. She swung her flaming spear, and a roaring fire dragon protected her.

The intense heat evaporated the venom directly.

Although the venom was still poisonous after it was vaporized, Xiao Meng was prepared and did not inhale or come into contact with any of the venomous gas, so she was not harmed in any way.

As the fire dragon slammed into the Scorpion-tailed Tiger, a bolt of tribulation lightning also struck down from the thunderclouds, causing the Scorpion-tailed Tiger to roar in anger.

The roar was so real it seemed to be a colorless avalanche crashing down. Seeing this, Xiao Meng quickly withdrew her spear and held it in front of her to block the rolling sound waves.

Even though Xun Yan, who was hiding in the soil, was not in the midst of the battle, he still felt the terror of the sound waves.

"As expected of the Scorpion-Tailed Tiger about to undergo tribulation, its combat power far surpasses that of ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators. Xiao Meng is not to be underestimated either, even if she uses the tribulation lightning to fight."

However, being beneath the tribulation thunderclouds, she herself could not completely evade the power of the tribulation lightning. Even so, she was still able to fight the Scorpion-tailed Tiger to a standstill.

It even managed to suppress Scorpion Tiger at one point. If Scorpion Tiger had no other trump cards, its defeat would only have been a matter of time.

I need to act quickly, or I won't be able to claim the system reward.

Thinking of this, Xun Yan directly summoned the Twelve Star Heavenly Array Flags. He raised his hand and pointed, and the Twelve Star Heavenly Array Flags landed on the key node.

"Senior Sister Xiao, I'm here to help you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xun Yan raised his hand again, and the Nine Heavens Thunder Array was activated instantly.

Immediately afterwards, under Xun Yan's control, a bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the Scorpion-tailed Tiger precisely without harming Xiao Meng in the slightest.

"Junior Brother Xun, thank you very much. I'll treat you to a drink after we've dealt with this guy!"

After a brief moment of surprise at Xun Yan's sudden appearance, Xiao Meng quickly switched into battle mode.

With Xiao Meng holding the line in front, Xun Yan was able to comfortably control the heavenly lightning from behind, and even had the energy to summon several flying swords.

These flying swords are only low-grade magic weapons, and their power is not very high, but with the blessing of the Myriad Swords Technique, they can still cause some damage to the Scorpion-Tailed Tiger.

In a one-on-one fight, this kind of damage wouldn't have a significant impact on the scorpion tiger; instead, it would stimulate its ferocity, making it even more dangerous.

But now, the flying sword can always strike the Scorpion-Tailed Tiger at tricky angles.

If the Scorpion-tailed Tiger defends against the flying sword, it will have to withstand Xiao Meng's attack.

If it ignores the flying sword, the flying sword will affect its movements, distorting its actions, and it still won't be able to dodge Xiao Meng's spear.

After taking another solid shot from Xiao Meng, Scorpion Tiger's eyes turned bloodshot, clearly indicating that he had reached the peak of his rage.

At the same time, a bolt of tribulation lightning struck, and Xun Yan also took the opportunity to draw in a bolt of lightning, within which a flying sword was hidden.

Xiao Meng seized the opportunity, her spear transforming into a fire dragon, heading straight for the Scorpion-Tailed Tiger's face.

But just as it was struck by the tribulation lightning, the Scorpion-tailed Tiger seized the opportunity to roar.

A tiger roars in the mountains.

The deafening sound shattered Xun Yan's heavenly thunder, sent his flying sword flying, and even stunned Xiao Meng's spear.

It even made Xun Yan and Xiao Meng's ears ring a little.

Xiao Meng simply bit her tongue lightly, using the pain to clear her head and prevent herself from feeling dizzy.

Xun Yan, on the other hand, is blessed with the power of Thunder Heart Clarity, so this kind of influence on consciousness generally has little effect on him.

But before Xun Yan and Xiao Meng could fully recover, a violent tremor came from their surroundings.

Then, not only the ground beneath their feet collapsed, but the surrounding rock walls also crumbled.

Below the collapse seemed to be an endless abyss, and there was a strange suction force that prevented Xun Yan and Xiao Meng from flying.
