"Main peak?"
A hint of difficulty flashed across the Eighth Elder's face as he murmured to himself.
The name "Kunmen Main Peak" seemed to be a very special one, and even some of the disciples watching couldn't help but sigh with regret.
"Kunmen's main peak? What's the use of high talent if this kid chose such a place?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this person should be Qin Xin, the newcomer king from the outer academy."
"I think so too."
“It really was him. I ran into him when I went to the outer gate on business.”
A cacophony of voices echoed through the pavilion.
"snort!"
The Eighth Elder snorted angrily, his slightly pale eyebrows twitching upwards. Instantly, the entire pavilion fell silent, as if no disciple dared to provoke him.
Qin Xin, who was in the spiritual realm, was watching as a ferocious crocodile with a gaping maw slowly took shape before him. As the giant mouth opened and closed, a chilling aura spread around him.
"This level three demon beast's strength has probably reached the seventh level of the Awakening Realm."
Seeing the ferocious crocodile glaring at him, Qin Xin quickly assessed its strength using his spiritual sense.
"scandium!"
The ferocious crocodile crouched on the ground with its four claws, and with a powerful stomp, a gust of wind whistled through the air, and some of its sturdy scales, which glowed with a bluish light, made a rustling sound.
In Qin Xin's eyes, the ferocious crocodile had already transformed into a streak of azure light and was rapidly attacking, its four claws scraping against the ground with an unpleasant screech, which made him raise an eyebrow.
"Crimson Flame Blade!"
With a soft shout, pale yellow light flowed across the ancient long staff, and five fire blades suddenly shot out.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The crisp sound of metal colliding echoed throughout the entire spiritual realm.
"burst!"
Qin Xin quickly dodged backward, a smile playing on his lips, and let out a soft shout.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
An explosion suddenly rang out, and in an instant, the ferocious crocodile was enveloped in pale yellow flames.
"This defensive power..."
After the flames subsided, to Qin Xin's surprise, the ferocious crocodile had only had a few scales blown off, and only a trace of the fire explosion remained on its body, seemingly without any damage to its flesh.
"roar!"
The sudden explosion enraged the ferocious crocodile, its eyes turning blood red as it opened its massive jaws and lunged at Qin Xin.
"Wildfire Hundred Slashes!"
Qin Xin no longer held back and directly used his strongest martial art, a low-level Earth-rank martial art.
Suddenly, the spiritual energy in the entire spiritual realm stagnated, and under the impetus of a mysterious martial arts intent, a huge fire blade quietly took shape.
Before the ferocious crocodile could react, the huge fire blade slashed directly at its face.
"boom!"
A massive blade, imbued with an aura of destruction, exploded in mid-air during its confrontation with the ferocious crocodile.
"Aww~~~~." (A string of seemingly random characters)
Amidst the surging roars of beasts, the ferocious crocodile slowly split in two, and in an instant, blood energy permeated the entire spiritual realm.
After the blood-red light fell, Qin Xin's figure slowly descended. He immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, and through the circulation of his martial spirit, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was continuously drawn into his body, transformed into pure true energy that circulated through his true meridians and true acupoints, and finally gathered in his martial dantian.
After Qin Xin recovered, fluctuations reappeared within the spiritual realm, and an aura several times more ferocious and powerful than before was rapidly condensing.
"Starfire Spirit Demon Tiger!"
Qin Xin exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the monstrous form condensed from the mysterious aura.
A tiger-like demon beast, resembling a comet falling to the ground, lightly stomped its paw, instantly engulfing the entire spiritual realm in blazing flames. Even the environment within the space darkened, with specks of starlight twinkling in the air.
Qin Xin breathed a sigh of relief after sensing the aura of the Starfire Spirit Tiger.
The Starfire Spirit Tiger is a level four demon beast. Its strength at maturity is comparable to that of a Core Formation Realm expert. With a single breath of starfire, it can incinerate everything. Moreover, a martial artist's frail body would likely be burned to ashes if it were even slightly touched by the starfire.
Fortunately, the Starfire Spirit Tiger is extremely difficult to grow, requiring it to devour countless stellar powers. The one in front of us is clearly still in its infancy, but even so, its strength is equivalent to that of a martial artist at the eighth level of the Awakening Realm.
"call!"
As soon as the Starfire Spirit Tiger appeared, it did not attack directly like other demonic beasts. Instead, it stood still and observed Qin Xin, as if it had a spirit.
"Clang! Clang!"
Qin Xin dared not be careless. With the activation of the Martial Spirit Pattern, the golden patterns on the Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff slowly appeared, and powerful fluctuations and friction with the air constantly produced sounds.
"roar!"
As the Starfire Demon Tiger roared to the sky in fury, the starlight above it shone even brighter, as if the power of the stars was constantly being injected into its body. The beast's body quickly became fuller, and even its aura was rapidly increasing.
"Oh no, we can't wait any longer!"
Qin Xin sensed something was wrong and took the initiative to attack.
With a swing of the Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff, accompanied by blazing flames, it pierced directly towards the belly of the Starfire Spirit Demon Tiger.
"珰!"
A crisp sound spread out, and Qin Xin hurriedly chose to retreat. However, the starfire of the Starfire Spirit Demon Tiger clung to Qin Xin's Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff like a leech.
"Screech!"
A searing pain shot through Qin Xin's hand. Although he immediately used his powerful true energy to extinguish the spark, the area burned by the spark still throbbed with intense pain.
"roar!"
Before Qin Xin could even land properly, the Starfire Spirit Demon Tiger lunged straight at him with its sharp claws, the flames burning on them sending shivers down his spine.
"This dead tiger is quite capable!"
Qin Xin clenched his fist, which had been scorched by the starlight, and gripped the Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff tightly once more. Instantly, ten pale yellow fire blades condensed into shape.
Having learned from his previous experience fusing the fire blade, Qin Xin's process was much smoother this time.
In an instant, a dark red fire blade slashed down from the Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff, shooting directly towards the Starfire Spirit Demon Tiger.
At the same time, the Starfire Spirit Tiger seemed to realize that it had almost no chance of survival under Qin Xin's powerful attack, and it actually gave up resisting. The starlight on its fur corresponded with the starlight in the sky.
A huge, scorching fireball shot out directly.
"Thump!"
Flames filled the air, illuminating the entire spiritual realm. The powerful shockwaves spread outwards with overwhelming force.
A few minutes later, the flames died down. The smell of burning wafted out.
At this moment, Qin Xin's clothes had been burned by the starfire, and his body was scorched red. If it weren't for the quiet circulation of the Desolate God Battle Body, Qin Xin's body would probably have been directly incinerated by the strongest attack of the Starfire Spirit Demon Tiger.
However, Qin Xin did not wake up; his eyes trembled continuously, as if he were enduring immense pain.
The entire spiritual realm became extremely quiet for a moment, with the sound of intense breathing like thunder. Fortunately, there was no one in the spiritual realm, otherwise Qin Xin's naked man image would have been completely exposed.
