1455: C1455 reaping essence

C1455 reaping essence

In the center of the tiger's mouth, Zhong Kui's half of the White Tiger Token was no longer under Zhong Kui's control. Instead, it floated up into the air, emitting a dense Gengjin White Tiger Demon from the token, forming a distorted and hazy light.

"It's about to open!"

Zhong Kui took in a deep breath. He swallowed all the infernal energy in the surrounding space, but there was a look of enjoyment on his face as he spoke in a low voice.

As Zhong Kui finished speaking, a faint golden door gradually took shape in front of the three of them in the distorted space surrounding the command medallion.

"Hurry up and leave. This spatial gate looks very fragile!"

Zhong Kui instructed in a low voice as he stepped into the sect.

Behind him, Tang Ruqing and Yang Junshan looked at each other, then quickly passed through the door as well, disappearing from sight in an instant.

After the three Golden Immortals entered the spatial gate and left, the floating white tiger token in the middle of the tiger's mouth disappeared like a mirage in the water, amidst the spatial ripples that rippled like water.

At the same time, in a remote corner of the Flying Star Realm, Yang Junxiu's expression suddenly changed. She stretched out her hand, and the door sized Soul Severing Blade appeared in front of her.

The White Tiger Secret Realm. This was a secret realm that had been specially opened for the high-level demonic cultivators of the White Tiger lineage. The space here was filled with a rich metal-type source energy.

The moment they entered the secret realm, whether it was Zhong Kui or Yang Junshan, both of them greedily breathed in the rich metal elemental essence that filled their surroundings. Only Immortal Elder Tang Ruo Qing had a faint trace of regret flashing across her face.

"Gentlemen, what should we do next? Should we have a charter?" Tang Ruqing's still cold voice carried a rare trace of displeasure.

"Mm. But before that, I want to tell you two something."

Zhong Kui's sudden words caused Tang Ruoqing and Yang Junshan to feel an ominous feeling.

"Actually, the White Tiger Secret Realm is located at the border of the Flying Star Realm. I believe the two of you already know about it." Zhong Kui said.

"What are you trying to say?" Tang Ruqing coldly said.

Zhong Kui smiled and said, "What I want to say is that the movement of the White Tiger Secret Realm does not rely on any carriers. Rather, the secret realm itself is floating around in the starry sky surrounding the Flying Star Realm."

Yang Junshan was slightly stunned. Tang Ruoqing's eyes flashed as she said: "So you're saying, the entrance to the White Tiger Secret Realm is not fixed. The next time we go out, the exit might not be in the mouth of the tiger statue?"

"That's right." Zhong Kui chuckled as he said, "Therefore, it is impossible for anyone to follow us and attempt to find and open the dimensional gateway to the secret realm."

Yang Junshan's heart sank. He heard Tang Ruoqing speak, "So, Fellow Zhong doesn't trust me and Fellow Yang?"

Zhong Kui chuckled and said, "How could that be? It's just a precaution. You two probably don't want our exploration in the secret realm to be disturbed."

Yang Junshan smiled and said, "Of course!"

Tang Ruqing coldly snorted and said, "I, on the other hand, can only use one Immortal technique."

"That is a Creation Immortal Art inheritance!" Zhong Kui corrected him.

"If there is one!" Tang Ruqing also didn't want to be outdone.

"You two." Yang Junshan interrupted the tense atmosphere between the two. He stared into the depths of the secret realm and said with a deep voice, "We are in trouble."

Zhong Kui and Tang Ruoqing were stunned when they heard this, but soon after, their respective divine senses also discovered it, so they each went on guard.

While the auras of Gengjin Demon Qi in front of them assaulted them, the three Golden Immortals did not move at all.

Suddenly, a loud roar came. A huge tiger with white head and uplifted eyes rushed out from the fog. Its two sharp claws were like sharp blades, aiming for Yang Junshan's body.

Of course, Yang Junshan was not afraid. His hands were closed, and the murderous mist formed by the Metal Element Source Energy around him could actually be used by him. It actually formed a wall of fog in front of him.

The giant tiger pounced over, but its body was blocked by the wall of fog. Its two giant claws slashed in front of it, and almost tore a hole in the wall of fog.

The giant tiger was about to retreat and launch another attack when a cold light flashed in front of it and both of its front paws were cut off.

The giant tiger opened its mouth and let out an angry roar of pain. Its huge body rolled on the ground, and in an instant, it lost its trace in the infernal fog.

"Puppet?" Yang Junshan was confused.

Yang Junshan naturally didn't believe that there was still any White Tiger demonic cultivator left in the secret realm, not to mention a tiger demon in the Immortal Realm.

"No, this is a tiger spirit formed entirely from the metal element. It should be used as a form of protection within the White Tiger Secret Realm. Once someone who isn't a White Tiger clansman enters, it might attract the tiger spirit's attack." Zhong Kui pondered for a moment before explaining.

"Then, we have to be careful. If I'm not wrong, this tiger spirit should be an immortal existence in the White Tiger Secret Realm, right?" Tang Ruoqing said.

Zhong Kui hesitated for a moment before nodding. "That should be the case. The Tiger Spirit itself is formed from the Metal Element's Source energy of the secret realm. As long as the secret realm exists, it can only obtain the Metal Element's Source energy at any time."

"However, he's only a Tiger Demon at the Immortal Soul Stage. He shouldn't pose much of a threat to us." Zhong Kui added.

However, just as Zhong Kui finished speaking, two tiger spirits roared from the depths of the infernal mist. It was as if they were communicating with each other.

Zhong Kui looked embarrassed as he replied, "Fine, two Tiger Spirits. However, they won't be a match for us."

This time, when the two tiger spirits appeared again, it was Tang Ruo Qing who suffered the attack. As for the tiger spirit that Zhong Kui had cut off its two front claws earlier, it had already recovered.

However, Tang Ruoqing reacted in time and used her two golden cymbals to block the attacks of the two tiger spirits. Zhong Kui and Yang Junshan attacked one after the other, and the two tiger spirits retreated after being injured.

"They will continue to harass us, but those two tiger spirits really have a lot of strength!" Tang Ruqing shook her hand and said.

It's fine if the two tiger spirits rely on the source of the secret realm to survive, but the key is that this is their home ground. They can appear and disappear anytime and attack anywhere, and we can only passively defend, and we can't afford to be careless. After all, these two tiger spirits can die countless times, but we can't be injured once. Yang Junshan frowned.

Zhong Kui nodded. "Dao Friend Yang is right. Since that's the case, the three of us should act together. We shouldn't split up."

"Is that necessary?" Tang Ruoqing was clearly unwilling, "It's just two tiger spirits. Although they've entered the Immortal Realm, they're still incomparable to true Immortal Primal Demons."

Before entering the Secret Realm, although Tang Ruoqing had said that she would not take anything else from the Creation Immortal Art inheritance, Zhong Kui obviously didn't trust her, and Tang Ruoqing obviously didn't want to act under Zhong Kui's gaze.

"Aiyo, that's not good."

Yang Junshan shouted and suddenly grew bigger. The fog around him turned into the shape of a tiger, rushing towards him.

Yang Junshan suddenly threw out a punch, causing the air to distort due to the force of his punch.

With the combination of the Art of Breeding Heavenly Elephants and the "Shocking Stone Fist", Yang Junshan's body, which had reached the advanced stage of "Limb Rebirth", allowed him to shatter the head of an Immortal Soul stage tiger with a single punch in close combat.

However, there was more than one tiger spirit attacking Yang Junshan. The moment when the tiger spirit in front of him disappeared, another tiger spirit had already fallen onto his shoulder. It opened its mouth and tried to bite Yang Junshan's neck.

Even though Yang Junshan was confident in his physical strength and was not afraid of the tiger spirit's bite that could break his neck, it was not difficult for him to cut a few wounds.

However, a sword ray had arrived in time to pierce through the tiger spirit's head with an extremely precise and agile angle. At the same time, it had also nailed the tiger spirit's huge mouth together.

Yang Junshan was about to thank him, but suddenly, a sword light flashed in front of his eyes. A tail of a tiger was cut in half like a whip. A loud roar came from the fog, and then it disappeared.

The golden light flew back and landed in Tang Ruqing's hand.

"The third tiger spirit!" Yang Junshan didn't even have time to thank Tang Ruqing.

Tang Ruqing's expression was also a bit ugly.

"Three tiger spirits, do they correspond to the three people that we entered into this mystic realm?" Zhong Kui muttered to himself, "Looks like it will be difficult for us to take care of ourselves this time. Three tiger spirits working together and coordinating with each other in an unusual way is enough to pose a threat to us in the secret realm."

Helpless, the three Golden Immortals had no choice but to explore the White Tiger Secret Realm together.1

During this period of time, the three Tiger Spirits had also launched several surprise attacks at the three of them. However, when the three Golden Immortals joined forces, the three Tiger Spirits could only return empty-handed.

However, the three Golden Immortals soon discovered that after the tiger spirit was killed once, there would always be an extremely pure metal-type Essence left on the ground.

This strand of origin energy was invisible and colorless. If it was not detected, it would quickly dissipate on its own and merge with the source energy within the secret realm.

After Zhong Kui refined the essence of the Metal Elemental Source for the first time, he quickly understood its miraculous effect.

He didn't even need to refine this strand of metal elemental essence; he only needed to circulate it through his cultivation technique to completely convert it into metal elemental essence. In other words, the essence of the metal elemental essence that was condensed by the tiger spirit could be used to increase the cultivation level of the five energies within the chest of the Golden Body Immortal.

When Yang Junshan killed a tiger spirit and absorbed the essence left in its body, he was shocked to find that he could absorb and absorb the spiritual qi from heaven and earth for months to condense the essence.

This caused Zhong Kui and Yang Junshan's excitement to soar. Every time the tiger spirit attacked, the two of them would be extremely vicious and would try to deny it the chance to escape. This way, they could collect more of the Metal Elemental Essence's essence.

Only Immortal Elder Tang Ruoqing did not receive any benefits. It was not because of the promise he made earlier to only acquire the divine abilities of a Manifestation Realm cultivator, but rather because the essence of the metal element was of no great use to him for the time being.

When the three of them entered the White Tiger Secret Realm, Zhong Kui and Yang Junshan had already seen this point.
