Chapter 404 The Last Ounce Of Strength

The flaming tiger roared at the top of its lungs when it saw the three pins leaping towards it so fast it could not dodge them.

With its speed right now, it could not possibly dodge all three pins.

Stab! Stab! Stab!

All three pins pierced into the tiger’s forehead and both of its eyes!

Black blood gushed out along with a plaintive, pain-filled roar.

The tiger felt a great deal of pain. It really wanted to cry, but no tears came out, only black blood.

The light had been stolen from it. It could not see anything anymore. From now on, it was no longer the mighty king of this hundred-beast forest, but just a blind tiger.

In this state, even a secondary formation cultivator would be able to kill it now.

One did not even have to consider the beasts. If the news reached them, a great many of them from the secondary and tertiary formation level would come for it to steal the title of king!

Fear had been rising in the heart of flaming tiger for a long while now, but aside from that, there was also the flame of angry vengeance.

It wanted to kill Bai Chen. It was furious since it was blind and injured due to Bai Chen. If Bai Chen had not shown up, it would have been living its usual, comfortable life as king.

“Grrrrrr!” The tiger roared loudly.

The sound echoed in the cave more harshly than before. Without its sight, it still turned towards Bai Chen and looked at him maliciously. Its rage was beyond words.

Suddenly, the flames ignited around its body once again. It was even more searing-hot than before. It looked like it was the flaming tiger’s last ounce of strength. It was burning its own core!

Of course, it did not want to stand still and wait for death. It wanted to struggle and live!

At that moment, the malicious beast jumped up high before leaping down at Bai Chen. Its paws, even with partial damage to its claws, were aimed at Bai Chen. It intended to tear him apart.

Its only thought was: ‘Either you or me has to die!’

,m It was obvious that the tiger had decided to give its life, even though it was afraid of Bai Chen.

It could not run away from this situation. It could not do anything except fight like its life depended on it.

Thus, it was only normal that the tiger decided to do this. Bai Chen’s facial expression changed back and forth. His heart jerked. He could sense an even greater dangerous vibe from the tiger.

His eyes glowed coldly. Even sensing the danger, he did not plan to back away.

How could he do that when the sub-mission was waiting for him to complete? If he did not complete it, he would not be able to gain more magical bonuses to trade for a supreme item.

Bai Chen raised his free hand up. Another flying sword was sent out of the dimension ring into his hand.

This flying sword was Song Ma Xiao’s. He had to thank Song Ma Xiao and Wu Ya for giving both of them to him.

“One-slash kill!”

As soon as he had the two swords in his hands, he used his one-slash kill technique immediately. He used it twice.

He tightened his grip on the swords. He raised the swords up and silver qi leapt out of them. It formed a silver blade that shone brightly, soaring towards the tiger that was running towards Bai Chen.

“Grrrrrrrr!” The flaming tiger roared loudly. It could sense the danger that could take its life. It was very scared. It thought that it really had to die. There was no way for it to survive.

Due to that, the tiger roared out with grief. It decided to kill Bai Chen as well.

Slash!

Slash!

However, it was a shame for the tiger because it could not do what it wanted to do. The white blades hit its body. A scary scene unfolded.

Its strong body was cut into pieces. Blood splattered everywhere. However, at the last moment, the paw that was cut off was raised and sent leaping towards Bai Chen.

“This is bad!” Bai Chen roared once. His face changed colour. He did not expect that the tiger could still control its paw, even though it had been cut off and it was on the brink of death.

He thought of dodging it, but it was too late.

Stab!

The claw pierced Bai Chen’s chest. His body floated in the air. Fresh blood splattered out.

Thud!

Bai Chen dropped onto the ground with a loud thud.

“Ack!” Bai Chen choked on his own blood. His face turned pale and dark. His entire chest was in pain.

“As expected of the king of the hundred-beast forest...” Bai Chen acknowledged the flaming tiger’s ability.

Wounding him at the very last moment of life was truly admirable.

Bai Chen slowly sat up and pulled the claw out of his chest. He threw it away as fresh crimson blood spurted out of him.

The iron smell of blood lingered in the air. It was undoubtedly the scent of the tiger’s and Bai Chen’s blood.

Bai Chen suppressed his pain that was making his face twist. He closed his eyes. He absorbed the celestial qi inside the cave to ease the pain and stop the bleeding.

Time slowly passed until it was already nighttime. Bai Chen’s injuries had somewhat lessened. He sighed a little and slowly stood up. He walked over to the tiger’s corpse.

Bai Chen bent down and picked up its fiery-red core. It was the core of the flaming tiger, a tertiary formation beast.

Ding!

The mission-accomplishment window popped up in front of him. He nodded to himself a little and closed the window.
