Six Realms Immortal Emperor

"Huh?" Dongfang Sixing was stunned. Wasn't this just asking for trouble?

"Hmph! You don't understand, this move is called 'putting yourself in a desperate situation to survive'!" Xu Jingtian suddenly exclaimed with great ambition.

Dongfang Sixing stared intently into his eyes, and was infected by his heroic spirit, which made his fear disappear.

"Alright, let's do it! If we unfortunately die in battle, we can just consider it as going down to the underworld to join Sile."

"Okay." Xu Jingtian nodded, took out the only magic weapon in his storage bag, and handed it to Dongfang Sixing.

"Here you go. The two of us will target one of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tigers and attack together. Remember, don't strive for merit, just avoid mistakes; preserving your lives is the most important thing."

"Understood." Dongfang Sixing hadn't expected Xu Jingtian to have a backup plan. Looking at the magical artifact in his hand, his confidence finally returned.

"Which one? You tell me."

"The one on the far left with the scar, I'll distract it, you gouge its eyes! Go!" Xu Jingtian shouted, slipping out from the left side of the tree.

With a deafening boom, Xu Jingtian appeared and swiftly unleashed the lightning control technique he had been gathering for a long time, striking the head of the injured Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger with a powerful blow.

Mmm~~ Mmm~~

The Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger howled pitifully, not expecting to be attacked so suddenly. A large hole was punched into its injured forehead by lightning, and blood flowed freely.

Mmm~~ Mmm~~

The ferocity of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger was fully unleashed. Ignoring the pain, it opened its huge mouth and roared as it pounced on Xu Jingtian.

The Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger charged forward menacingly, covering several meters in a single pounce. Its two enormous claws, sharper than steel, reached out and slashed fiercely towards Xu Jingtian's chest.

Xu Jingtian did not dodge, but coldly stared at the tiger claws that were gradually growing larger in front of him, waiting for an opportunity.

"Poke its eyes!" Xu Jingtian shouted to Dongfang Sixing, who had not yet appeared. At the same time, he used the full power of the Misty Wave Illusion Movement Technique to dodge several feet away, narrowly avoiding the tiger's claws.

At the same time, a sharp sword light flashed, and Dongfang Sixing quickly appeared from behind Xu Jingtian, his magic weapon, infused with spiritual power, accurately piercing the eyes of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger.

Mmm~~ Mmm~~

The hundred-refined golden tiger charged with ferocious force, and after its eyes were pierced by the magical weapon, it lost control, charging forward with the longsword still embedded in its forehead. It roared in resentment, and with a thud, it crashed headfirst into a large tree, the hilt of the longsword embedded in its flesh.

In an instant, the tree trunk swayed violently, and leaves flew everywhere. And the ferocious Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger perished.

From the moment Xu Jingtian and his companion made their move to the moment the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger was killed, everything happened so fast that the three tigers still fighting in the arena hadn't even had time to react.

With one of the four tigers gone, Xu Jingtian and his companion broke through the encirclement of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger as soon as they made their move.

The right timing, the right place, and the right people—the two chose the right moment to strike, the cover of the big tree, and their precise teamwork were all indispensable.

"Alright! I didn't expect it to be the two of you."

Seeing that someone had come to their rescue, Qu Feixiong and Lu Yikuang, who had been in despair, immediately perked up.

Lu Yikuang recognized the two of them immediately. Before the trial, because of Dongfang Siyu, the person who spoke with her was naturally the focus of attention.

"Yes, I am Xu Jingtian." Xu Jingtian smiled faintly, flashed to their side, and greeted them with a smile. "The other one is Dongfang Sixing."

"Qu Feixiong!" Qu Feixiong said gratefully.

Lu Yikuang and Qu Feixiong were both proud and disdained to associate with disciples of lower cultivation levels, but Xu Jingtian and Qu Feixiong came to their rescue in a critical moment, which made them grateful.

If it were an ordinary person, they would have fled long ago and wouldn't have come to their rescue. Moreover, Xu Jingtian and his companion's extraordinary courage, the timing of their attack, and their close coordination all revealed their exceptional strength.

The remaining three refined golden tigers were not giving up. They circled around the three of them, looking for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.

The three were surrounded by the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger, and could only stand back to back. Xu Jingtian, who was inside the encirclement, immediately felt a connection between himself and the other two.

"What should we do?" After witnessing Xu Jingtian's skills, Lu Yikuang couldn't help but have the idea of ​​taking him as his master.

In this critical moment, Xu Jingtian did not refuse and gave instructions to Dongfang Sixing, who was outside the circle.

"Sixing, go and pick up that magic weapon. We'll attack from both sides, and if we take down another hundred-refined golden tiger, we can break the siege."

Qu Feixiong, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but nod secretly. Although Xu Jingtian was unknown, his words immediately made it clear that he was no ordinary person.

"Good!" Dongfang Sixing was surprised that he had made such a great contribution so quickly. He admired Xu Jingtian immensely and hurried away upon hearing this.

With four men and three tigers, they at least had the advantage in numbers this time. Moreover, this time they were attacking from both sides, leaving the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger vulnerable on all sides. This psychological shift was extremely beneficial for restoring his confidence.

However, they only eliminated the weakest of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tigers. The remaining three Hundred-Refined Golden Tigers were all extremely fierce, especially the leader of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tigers, who was even more cautious in his actions and kept a watchful eye on them, ready to pounce at any moment.

"What's next?" Qu Feixiong asked Xu Jingtian, a little nervous, expressing his great admiration for Xu's command.

"Take the initiative!" Xu Jingtian said with a slight smile.

"Taking the initiative? Brother Jingtian, did I hear that right?" Qu Feixiong asked, puzzled.

On the other side, Lu Yikuang smiled and praised, "Brother, what courage!" After all, he was experienced and knowledgeable, and immediately understood Xu Jingtian's intention.

Xu Jingtian already knew about Qu Feixiong and Lu Yikuang's condition; their steps were unsteady, indicating that they had reached the point of exhaustion of spiritual energy.

Therefore, in terms of strength, the two of them could barely be considered as one. If they continued to wear down the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger like this, the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger wouldn't be too bad off, after all, he was physically strong and full of energy. But Xu Jingtian and the others couldn't. The longer it went on, the more they would run out of spiritual energy, just like the two of them, and then they would truly be left with no one to turn to for help. Therefore, if they wanted to break the stalemate, they had to take the initiative to attack.

"Then who's going? We're both at our limit, don't count on me," Qu Feixiong said with difficulty.

"How about you two cover me while I attack?" Xu Jingtian suggested.

"Can you really do it?" Qu Feixiong underestimated him. He and Lu Yikuang didn't dare to be careless with this second-tier ferocious beast, yet this unknown kid dared to talk big.

"Hehe, although I only have the second level of Qi Refining cultivation, with two people covering for me, this risk is worth taking." Xu Jingtian had already planned it out in his mind. If he couldn't win, he would use the Illusionary Wave Movement Technique to protect himself.

Lu Yikuang was also a little worried. "It's good, but the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger has been gathering its strength for a long time. I'm afraid that once it launches a counterattack, the two of us will be in trouble, let alone be able to take care of you." After all, Lu Yikuang was experienced and his considerations were very thorough.

Qu Feixiong gave him a reproachful look but didn't say anything.

At this critical moment, who would want to risk their life? If the two of them readily agreed, Xu Jingtian might even doubt their motives.

"What if there were two pills?"

Xu Jingtian smiled slightly, took out two pills from his storage bag, and handed one to each of them. These were the only two he had left, and he was a little reluctant to part with them.

Qu Feixiong and Lu Yikuang were overjoyed, not expecting him to have something to hold back, and hurriedly accepted it.

"Haha, with these two pills, I guarantee the four of us can break through safely." Lu Yikuang's heroic spirit rose again, and he stuffed the pills into his mouth.

The moment the pill entered my mouth, its purest spiritual energy was released, a warm current surged through me, and my shriveled meridians felt swollen.

Feeling refreshed, Lu Yikuang suddenly felt energized. He had no choice but to re-evaluate Xu Jingtian, elevating his opinion of him considerably.

This seemingly ordinary outer disciple is anything but simple. Not only did he dare to venture deep into the heart of this trial area, just like him, but he also possessed magical artifacts, pills, storage bags… While he also had these things, he had obtained them only through painstaking efforts to befriend inner disciples. Ordinary outer disciples simply weren't qualified to possess such items. Therefore, Xu Jingtian's background was far from simple, and his future prospects were immeasurable.

"I've decided to be your brother. If you ever need anything from me, Lu Yikuang, just let me know." I can't let go of the opportunity to befriend a disciple like this.

"You two should resolve your current predicament first, then we can talk about friendship. It's not even certain whether you'll be able to get out of here!" Qu Feixiong poured cold water on the two of them.

"Haha, no problem, no problem! With the help of these two brothers, we'll definitely be able to slay the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger!" Lu Yikuang said confidently.

Seeing that they had replenished their spiritual energy, Xu Jingtian smiled and said, "Brothers, watch closely. If I make a move later, my safety is entirely in your hands."

"Okay!" Qu Feixiong and Lu Yikuang said in unison.

"Sixing, stand further away and take care of yourself. Just make sure you don't get ambushed by the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Sixing took a few steps back, with the large tree right behind him, eliminating any worries about his back.

"Are you all ready? First, aim at that leader and take it down. The other two are nothing to fear!" Xu Jingtian said, making a hand seal and then taking quick, rapid steps as he rushed toward the leader of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger.
