I bear witness to immortality in the human world.

Chapter 93 Two Tigers
"It really is a tiger demon."

Wu Ming looked at the terrifying ghost rushing towards him with a ferocious expression, but his expression remained unchanged. He only snorted coldly and activated the Lin Word Technique in his soul. In an instant, his entire soul body burst forth with a blazing light.

I felt as if a god had descended upon me!

The power of the "Lin" technique, activated by the Three Refinements of the Primordial Spirit, is naturally terrifying. For this kind of ghost created by the tiger demon with its innate supernatural power, it was instantly blasted into a miserable scream and vanished into thin air.

Wu Ming's soul drifted forward, rampaging through everything in its path. All the demonic ghosts that rushed out from the demonic aura were suppressed and destroyed by the power of the Lin Word Technique before they could even get within a foot of him.

Swish.

As Wu Ming flew through the air and entered the central area filled with demonic energy, he finally sensed the intense core of the demonic energy. However, there were not one core, but two!

"Two tiger demons?"

A strange light flashed in Wu Ming's eyes.

Ahead, a pitch-black cave appeared, with two distinct demonic energies clearly visible within, indicating they did not originate from the same creature. With Wu Ming's divine sense perception, he disregarded the darkness and could already clearly see the scene inside the cave.

Deep within the cave, two massive tigers, far surpassing ordinary wild beasts in size, were coiled up. One of the tiger demons was curled up in a ball, seemingly asleep, but its internal energy was fluctuating, and its demonic aura was gathering and not dissipating, showing faint signs of change.

The other tiger demon had already sensed Wu Ming's approaching soul. It stood up, raised its head and looked out of the cave. Its huge demonic eyes emitted a scarlet and terrifying light. It opened its blood-red maw and let out a loud roar.

"Ouch!"

The terrifying roar erupted from the cave in an instant, echoing through the mountains and forests, accompanied by a chilling and intimidating pressure.

Even an ordinary tiger, with its roar in the mountains and forests, has the power to shake the soul and can even frighten some wild animals into defecating and urinating. Not to mention a tiger that has become a demon, its roar is even more terrifying. If an ordinary person were to be near it and endure its roar, it would be quite normal for them to be shaken to death.

At this moment, Wu Ming was in his soul form. The tiger demon's roar was more of a shock to his flesh and blood body, but to his soul, it was pure offensive power. A terrifying pressure spread, threatening to tear Wu Ming's soul apart.

but,
Even such a terrifying roar, when it landed on Wu Ming's soul, only caused a slight ripple. His soul remained completely unshaken, like a reef in the sea, standing firm despite the waves crashing against it.

"As expected of a tiger demon, the so-called Mountain Lord who subdues ghosts is extremely effective against yin and evil spirits. If it weren't for the fact that my cultivation of the Lin character technique is an unparalleled method and my primordial spirit has reached the third level of refinement, I would probably have been forced back by this attack."

Wu Ming stared into the cave, his expression unchanged.

He had long sensed the two tiger demons inside the cave. Although their demonic energy was powerful, neither of them had reached the 'Third Transformation' level, so they posed basically no threat to him. However, the tiger demon inside the cave that seemed to be 'sleeping' had an unusual aura. It didn't look like it was sleeping, but rather like it was gathering demonic energy to break through its cultivation level.

"Two tiger demons crossed the border and came into the village to eat people. Humans are the most intelligent of all beings. After eating human flesh and blood, they were affected. One of them has already begun to transform into the 'Third Transformation' stage."

Wu Ming's eyes flickered.

Seeing this, he was about to summon the killing soldiers from the Demon Subduing Diagram to quickly deal with the two tiger demons, but then his eyes suddenly shifted and he turned his gaze toward the direction of Wu Village in the distance.

In Wu Village, Wu Ming's true form had risen at some point and was sitting cross-legged. A small amount of his soul remained in his true form. Although he did not have the ability to operate any Dao techniques, it did not affect his actions.

"Wu Ming!"

At this moment, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open, and Zhou Ruoyun rushed in, sword in hand. She looked into the room with a serious expression and saw that Wu Ming had already sat up. She then said in a deep voice, "You heard it too?"

Just now, a huge roar from one of the two tiger demons in the cave of Erlong Mountain resounded throughout the mountains and forests. Although Wu Village was several miles away, ordinary people might not have noticed anything while they were asleep. However, Zhou Ruoyun and other blood-condensing martial artists had sharp ears and eyes, and were already on guard, so they naturally noticed it immediately.

"Yes, it should be on Erlong Mountain."

Wu Ming sprang up from the bed, gripping the Crimson Python Spear in his right hand.

He had already discovered the two tiger demons and trapped them in the mountain cave with his soul, so they had no chance to escape. He didn't need to use magic to deal with them, and he wanted to test the abilities of these two transformed tiger demons.

"Shall we go over there?"

Zhou Ruoyun didn't know why the tiger demon suddenly roared, but since she had already sensed its location, she could naturally go looking for it. However, she couldn't act on her own and had to follow Wu Ming's instructions.

When Wu Ming and Zhou Ruoyun came outside, they saw that Wu Qu and Wu Yang had also rushed over and heard the commotion.

"Clan chief, Uncle Yang, you two stay in the village, Zhou Xun and I will go into the mountains."

"it is good."

Wu Qu responded promptly to Wu Ming's arrangement.

Wu Ming picked up the Crimson Python Spear and headed out of the village toward Erlong Mountain, several miles away. Just as he and Zhou Ruoyun arrived at the foot of the mountain, another tiger's roar rang out, sounding like thunder.

"..."

Upon hearing the tiger's roar, Zhou Ruoyun's expression changed, and her body involuntarily stiffened.

Previously, she had only heard the noise slightly in Wu Village, several miles away. Now, she was in the mountains and heard the tiger's roar that shook the forest again. The feeling was completely different, and her hair stood on end instantly, and she felt an involuntary sense of horror.

However, she soon saw that Wu Ming was still walking ahead, moving swiftly and seemingly unaffected. She quickly composed herself and caught up with Wu Ming again. The two of them hurried up the mountain and soon arrived outside the cave where the tiger demon was hiding.

"Demon aura."

Martial artists' perception is not as sharp as that of Daoist cultivators, or rather, martial artists' perception is more inclined towards the material level, while demonic energy is an intangible and formless aura, colorless and invisible. Martial artists often find it difficult to detect from a distance. Only when they get close enough to a certain range can they feel that completely different demonic aura.

Zhou Ruoyun drew her sword and stared into the cave. The cave was pitch black, and she couldn't see what was inside, but she was now almost certain that the tiger demon was hiding inside. A fighting spirit flashed in her eyes, and she held her sword, eager to try, but she didn't act rashly. Instead, she looked at Wu Ming.

"Be careful, there are two tiger demons inside."

Wu Ming's words were concise and to the point.

"Both ends?"

Zhou Ruoyun was slightly startled and stared intently into the depths of the mountain cave.

Just then, the moonlight shone down, and relying on the faint light, she could vaguely see a scene inside the cave. She saw two tiger demons, one lying down and curled up, and the other standing in front, staring straight out of the cave. Their demonic eyes emitted a faint green light in the dim light, which was terrifying and gave people an invisible sense of oppression.

This terrifying pressure made Zhou Ruoyun feel uneasy and hesitant, and a sense of fear arose in her heart, making her hesitant to step into the mountain cave.

“One of them seems to be undergoing a transformation. We can’t wait any longer, come in with me.”

Wu Ming spoke in a deep voice, holding his gun and walking ahead, stepping into the cave first.

He saw Zhou Ruoyun's condition and knew that once a wild beast transformed into a demon, it would possess various talents and abilities. For example, a tiger demon, with its powerful demonic body, possessed the power to intimidate and control ghosts.

Now that he has dealt with the evil spirits, if they were still alive, they would be even more terrifying when combined with the Howling Tiger's Roar, and their impact on people would be even greater. Zhou Ruoyun's cultivation level is not high enough, and like him, she lacks experience in fighting demons, so she will inevitably be affected.

Swish.

Wu Ming took the lead and entered the cave, and Zhou Ruoyun immediately composed herself and quickly followed.

"Roar."

Inside the cave, a tiger demon stared intently at Wu Ming, who had intruded. It was a female tiger, because the male tiger behind it was in the crucial period of its transformation. Therefore, even though it sensed the changes outside, it did not take the initiative to attack, but only guarded the cave entrance.

Seeing Wu Ming burst in, it could no longer contain itself. With a roar, it pounced on Wu Ming.

The force of this pounce was terrifying. Because the cave was not spacious, and the tiger demon's body was much larger than that of ordinary wild beasts, the force of the pounce was immense. Wu Ming knew at a glance that he could not fight it head-on. Even if he used his Unity Realm skills to thrust his spear upwards and pierce through the tiger demon's flesh to deliver a fatal blow, the impact of the tiger's fierce pounce from above would be unbearable for a human body.

"retreat!"

Wu Ming bent his body, took a step back and sprang forward. After the tiger demon missed its target and landed, he thrust his spear forward with fierce speed, aiming for the tiger demon's demonic eye.

The tiger demon moved much faster than expected. It simply lowered its head to avoid Wu Ming's thrust, and with a powerful slap of its huge, bucket-sized tiger claws, it enveloped Wu Ming completely.

laugh.

Wu Ming's expression remained unchanged. With a nimble leap, he jumped onto the rock wall and stood on its side. At the same time, he thrust his spear forward again. Due to the tiger demon's fierce slapping claws, he had no time to dodge this time, and the spear collided with the tiger's claws.

If it were an ordinary martial artist with secondary blood coagulation, even if this strike could break through the tiger demon's hide, it would be difficult to cause much damage. However, Wu Ming's skills were combined with his strength, and his strike was refined and unrestrained. With this one stab, he forcefully pierced through the tiger's paw!
"Roar……"

The tiger demon, in pain, let out a furious roar. Its paws suddenly exerted force, preventing Wu Ming from pulling out his spear for a moment. With a sudden horizontal swing, it forcefully flung Wu Ming from one side of the rock wall to the other.

"sharp."

Wu Ming felt an immense force coming from him that he could not resist. He had no choice but to let go first to dissipate the force. Then, he flipped and leaped in mid-air, grabbed the hilt of the spear again, and pulled it out.

This tiger demon is indeed a demon. Although its skills are very crude, its strength is far beyond human capabilities. If it were a simple contest of strength, even a master who has achieved three stages of blood coagulation might not be able to defeat this tiger demon that has undergone two transformations in terms of pure power.

But a demon is still a demon.

Although its strength was great, its huge body was full of flaws in Wu Ming's eyes. Its strength might be greater than that of an ordinary master who had achieved the third stage of blood coagulation, but its actual threat was far less than that of a true martial arts master who had achieved the third stage of blood coagulation.

However, the cave was too small and the terrain was too restrictive, leaving little room for Wu Ming to dodge Nuo Teng. This allowed the tiger demon to unleash its full power and launch a fierce attack, forcing Wu Ming to retreat repeatedly.

but,

After dealing with several attacks from the tiger demon, Wu Ming had a thorough understanding of the tiger demon's abilities.

Swish.

Under the cover of darkness, Wu Ming's figure flashed, narrowly avoiding the tiger demon's claw attack. He then thrust his spear forward, drawing an arc in the air and accurately striking one of the tiger demon's eyes!
With a soft splatter of blood, the tiger demon's painful roar echoed through the mountain cave.

Wu Ming exerted force in his arm, pulling out the spear. He did not attempt to continue thrusting it forward to pierce the tiger demon's brain, as that would give the tiger demon a chance to launch a final counterattack. With this sudden advance and retreat, he narrowly avoided the tiger demon's frenzied clawing.

"You beast, you've run out of tricks."

Drops of demonic blood dripped from the spear, but Wu Ming's gaze remained perfectly calm.

Once he understands the tiger demon's strength and speed, even in a confined area that is not conducive to using his marksmanship, he can easily subdue the tiger demon.

Behind.

Zhou Ruoyun was completely unable to intervene at this moment and could only keep retreating. She had already retreated to the outside of the cave. At this moment, she watched Wu Ming deal with the tiger demon with ease and was not discouraged. She just gripped the hilt of her sword and stared at the inside of the cave, looking for an opportunity to make a move.
