Chapter 175 The Demonic Tiger Goes Berserk
Zhou Xianzong immediately took out his diary, intending to write something down before heading off to search for the city.
The scenery within these ruins is far better than I imagined, but our immediate priority is to find a city, establish a foothold, and then gather the Zhou dynasty's people to search for rare and precious treasures.
[And I remember that not long after Xiao Potian entered, he clashed with the people of the Holy Son of Liang Kingdom. The cause was probably some spiritual fruits, and these people all eventually died at Xiao Potian's hands.]
Because of this incident, Xiao Potian's reputation soared. Having killed someone from Liang Kingdom, Liang Liang was determined to hunt him down and searched for him everywhere.
Luo Le'er was also searching for Xiao Potian because she was worried about him. If you ask me, it's the female lead who really shines; they ran into each other after only a short search.
[Then the temple appeared, and everyone headed towards it, for according to legend, the temple contained a priceless relic: the Azure Lotus Sacred Flame.]
Of course, the Azure Lotus Sacred Flame ultimately ended up in Xiao Potian's hands. After all, he's the protagonist, and his reason for coming to the ruins was specifically for the Azure Lotus Sacred Flame.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully writing a diary and obtaining Taiyi True Water."
As soon as the system's voice faded, a jade bottle suddenly appeared in Zhou Xianzong's hand.
Even through the bottle, he could feel the immense power within it.
"It is said that the Taiyi True Water is extremely rare and a priceless treasure. This damn system is amazing, it even gave me such a good thing."
Zhou Xianzong was overjoyed.
He could hardly believe it, because the system hadn't given him any treasures for so long.
This time I've really struck it rich.
After carefully placing the Taiyi True Water, Zhou Xianzong randomly chose a direction and sped away.
Since it was his first time visiting the ruins, he had no idea what was going on there and could only walk around in silence.
"Holy Temple? Azure Lotus Sacred Flame? What are these things?"
Luo Le'er held the diary in her hands, filled with curiosity.
She knew almost nothing about the ruins, only that there were many opportunities there, and that even a pig could become a powerful figure if it came here and was lucky enough.
Otherwise, so many people wouldn't be vying to visit the ruins.
"What?! The Azure Lotus Sacred Flame really exists in the ruins, and Xiao Potian actually managed to seize it in the end!"
When Mo Wu and Bing Ruoyan saw this, they were both startled.
Others may not know what the Azure Lotus Sacred Flame is, but they certainly do.
This Azure Lotus Sacred Flame is an incomparably powerful and extraordinary flame in the world.
The Azure Lotus Sacred Flame is the most powerful flame, ranked thirtieth on the list of extraordinary flames.
Despite its relatively low ranking on the list of strange flames, strange flames are naturally born and nurtured by nature, making them stronger than any other flame in the world. They are impossible to subdue, and touching them will surely result in death.
But they never expected that Xiao Potian would have the means to subdue the Azure Lotus Sacred Flame.
If Xiao Potian were to obtain it, his strength would inevitably increase dramatically.
At the same time, the two were also amazed by Xiao Potian's luck.
Is this the chosen one? Truly defying the heavens!
Upon arriving at the ruins, everyone's first priority was to find their companions and a place to stay.
After traveling at high speed for an hour, Zhou Xianzong finally crossed the plain and arrived at a dense forest.
roar!
Just then, a beast's roar resounded through the sky, the astonishing sound wave shaking the earth and causing rocks to roll.
As the roars of beasts rang out, the sounds of fighting also echoed.
Zhou Xianzong's gaze pierced through the jungle, and he saw a giant tiger with its body engulfed in blazing flames, two horns on its head, and a blue face with fangs.
Its body was as large as a small mountain, and it stared fiercely at the group of people in front of it. It spewed out a mouthful of angry fire, which scorched and melted the ground.
"Isn't this the Green-Faced Fiend Tiger? It's even mutated, possessing fire attribute power and able to breathe flames. As expected of an ancient ruin, even the monsters here are extraordinary."
Zhou Xianzong was slightly surprised.
However, he quickly came to terms with it, since even the Azure Lotus Sacred Flame was in the ruins, which was enough to prove that the fire-attribute spiritual energy here was indeed more concentrated.
Even if these demonic beasts accidentally absorb a trace of the residual power of the Azure Lotus Sacred Flame, they will benefit immensely.
Without a doubt, the blue-faced ferocious tiger in front of us is definitely one of the lucky ones.
This put the cultivators in front of the Green-Faced Fiend Tiger in a difficult position.
A burst of fury erupted, and they couldn't withstand it at all. Even their magical artifacts were instantly melted, let alone their flesh and blood.
In the blink of an eye, two people were reduced to ashes on the spot.
"You beast, do you really intend to exterminate them all?"
Some people roared in anger, but it was all in vain; they could only desperately try to escape.
This enraged the green-faced tiger even more, causing it to swing its claws and attack.
In just a few exchanges, everyone died under the tiger's claws, leaving no survivors.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Xianzong gasped.
While the ruins offer numerous opportunities, they are also fraught with deadly dangers.
Just as he was about to leave, a chill gathered from not far away, enveloping the world.
Zhou Xianzong looked up and saw hundreds and thousands of ice cones condensing in the sky, each one incredibly sharp.
The next moment, like a violent storm, it suddenly slashed down, heading straight for the green-faced tiger, intending to severely injure it.
roar!
A tiger's roar shook the mountains and fields.
The green-faced ferocious tiger spewed flames from its mouth, instantly melting all the ice spikes. With a sweep of its giant tail, it pulverized a small hill.
Amidst the billowing dust, a figure flashed out.
"What a formidable demonic tiger!"
The figure's voice was cold and clear, with a hint of surprise in it.
Clearly, they hadn't expected the Green-Faced Fiend Tiger to neutralize the sudden attack so easily.
When the voice reached Zhou Xianzong's ears, he recognized it instantly. Upon closer inspection, he saw that the figure was none other than Bing Ruoyan.
Damn it.
What is this woman doing here?
What a twist of fate! How could we run into each other like this?
Zhou Xianzong felt extremely unlucky.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw the green-faced ferocious tiger's flames shrink and surge into its mouth, then spew out into the sky.
Endless flames exploded in the air, like a sea of fire, burning everything in their path.
The trees on the ground could not withstand the high temperature and turned to ashes in an instant, along with the trees that were sheltering Zhou Xianzong.
Moreover, the chilling aura released by Bing Ruoyan was melted by the flames, turning this place into a world of fire.
"Damn it!"
The moment Zhou Xianzong was exposed, he couldn't help but burst into a tirade of curses.
Blanching.
I was planning to sneak away, but you just unleashed a group AoE attack. What am I supposed to do?
Damn it, couldn't you have just had a one-on-one match with Bing Ruoyan? Why did you have to drag me into this?
Zhou Xianzong's sudden appearance also greatly surprised Bing Ruoyan.
She said it subconsciously.
"You were following me?"
"Why would I follow you? I was just passing by."
Zhou Xianzong was somewhat annoyed, thinking, "I have no interest in you."
"Then what are you doing hiding behind the jungle? If this demonic tiger hadn't gone berserk, how long were you planning to hide?"
Bing Ruoyan also questioned her without any politeness.
"Just say you can't beat them and you need my help, that's all."
Zhou Xianzong curled his lip.
"You... anyone who needs your help can just stand by and watch. I'll settle the score with you after I kill this demonic tiger."
The haughty Bing Ruoyan gave a soft snort.
Even though this was a mutated, blue-faced ferocious tiger with great strength, she was not afraid.
