Six Realms Immortal Emperor

Looking at Qu Feixiong's disdainful gaze, Xu Jingtian confidently walked towards the corpse of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger leader. He wrapped his arms around the tiger's waist, then channeled his spiritual power into his arms and shouted.

"rise!"

He lifted the hundreds-of-meters-long, hundred-refined golden tiger corpse several feet high.

"Good! Well done!" Lu Yikuang and Dongfang Sixing couldn't help but exclaim.

Qu Feixiong, standing to the side, curled his lip in disdain. He hadn't expected this kid to be so strong; he just wondered how long he could last.

Unexpectedly, under his close watch, Xu Jingtian shouted again.

"rise!"

He actually lifted the corpse of the hundred-refined golden tiger high up, several inches above its head.

"This...this is impossible!" Qu Feixiong said incredulously, his face turning pale and then red, looking extremely unwell.

"One!" Lu Yikuang and Dongfang Sixing exclaimed excitedly and began counting.

"two!"

……

"ten!"

……

"Twenty!" The two of them became happier as they counted.

After a full twenty breaths, Xu Jingtian first laid the corpse of the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger flat in front of his chest, and then gently placed it on the ground. He clearly handled the heavy with ease, and his technique was several levels more skillful than Qu Feixiong's.

"How about it, Qu Feixiong?" Seeing Xu Jingtian win so easily, Lu Yikuang naturally couldn't resist teasing Qu Feixiong.

"Hmph! I've been tricked!" Qu Feixiong was extremely frustrated. It turned out this kid really was born with superhuman strength; he shouldn't have gambled with him.

"What, trying to back out?" Xu Jingtian said with a smile. Of course, he wouldn't make a bet he wasn't sure of winning.

"It's not that bad. It's just a second-tier, hundred-refined golden tiger. I can afford to lose. Hmph, we'll see!" Qu Feixiong said, then stormed off.

"Sure, sure," Xu Jingtian said with a smile. He knew that if someone was greedy for cheap deals, he would make them suffer a great loss. He knew that you had to be careful with people like him.

Lu Yikuang ignored him, saying calmly, "Brother Jingtian, you're too lenient. This kind of person needs to be taught a lesson!"

Xu Jingtian chuckled and said, "He's just a petty, opportunistic person. Making friends like Brother Lu is the most important thing. What's wrong with letting him off the hook? There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Isn't that right, Sixing?"

That one sentence made all three of them laugh.

"Hey! This kid's got some big ambitions." Lu Yikuang said, watching his retreating figure after he had walked away.

"What's he going to do?" Xu Jingtian asked curiously.

"Deeper in the jungle, I've heard there are third-tier ferocious beasts. This kid, it seems, is still not giving up." Lu Yikuang said, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

Further into the trial grounds lay places he had never been before, where the danger increased many times over. Qu Feixiong must have gone there to try his luck.

"Ah! Wouldn't that be very dangerous?" Xu Jingtian said.

"There is danger, but if we can hunt down a third-tier ferocious beast, the reward for first place in the trial will be ours!" Lu Yikuang knew perfectly well that Qu Feixiong was aiming for a third-tier ferocious beast.

"Ha, you'd risk your life for a reward?" Xu Jingtian said disdainfully.

"That's right, safety comes first," Dongfang Sixing agreed.

"Brothers, you are unaware of the situation. Even if third-tier ferocious beasts exist, they are extremely rare. They certainly won't appear in groups like the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger. In a one-on-one fight, he might have a slight chance of winning," Lu Yikuang analyzed.

"Never mind that, Brother Lu, let's divide up this Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger corpse first. The two of us will split the smaller one. You've been here several times and encountered danger twice, so the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger leader is yours."

Lu Yikuang wanted to decline, but Xu Jingtian insisted. He had no choice but to agree: "Brother Jingtian, we need to quickly dismember and collect the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger's corpse. Night will fall soon, attracting even more wild beasts. We must leave quickly!"

He moved swiftly, his magical artifact rising and falling in his hand. In a short while, he had divided a hundred-refined golden tiger into several pieces and stuffed them into his storage bag.

Yes, in this dense jungle, the night truly belongs to those ferocious beasts. As night falls, who knows what deadly dangers lurk behind the thick trees in the distance.

Xu Jingtian and Dongfang Sixing worked together to dissect the other hundred-refined golden tiger. The tiger's head, skin, claws, and tail were all treasures.

"Brothers, farewell for now. I hope we'll meet again in the sect someday. Take care!" Lu Yikuang said, clasping his hands in a fist salute as he saw that they had finished packing.

"What's wrong? Isn't Brother Lu coming with us?" Dongfang Sixing asked, puzzled.

"Hehe, I'm used to being alone. It's more convenient for me to move around here by myself."

Dongfang Sixing wanted to say something, but Xu Jingtian stopped him.

"In that case, Brother Lu, please be careful. Let's meet outside."

As night slowly fell, Xu Jingtian and his companion headed outside, while Lu Yikuang ran deeper into the jungle.

In the dead of night, Xu Jingtian and Dongfang Sixing were perched on a large tree trunk, meditating with their eyes closed. Although meditating in a tree was uncomfortable, it was much safer than staying below.

Without the elixirs, they still have two days left, and they must keep their spiritual energy high in order to cope with any sudden dangers.

It was dark all around, and apart from the chirping of insects, the woods were extremely quiet.

Xu Jingtian couldn't help but recall the battle during the day. It seemed he still lacked practical combat experience. The battle with the python was relatively easy, allowing him to practice a few moves of lightning control and teleportation techniques. The battle with the AoE Black Bear was far worse; he was completely chased and beaten, with no chance to cast spells. He only managed to become more proficient in using the Illusionary Wave Movement Technique.

In the final battle against the Hundred-Refined Golden Tiger, with the cooperation of the others, the result was barely satisfactory.

However, the lightning control technique is too weak and cannot kill ordinary wild beasts in one hit. I need to practice more in the future.

Although the teleportation spell's effect wasn't satisfactory, it was the most useful. If it were combined with a magical flying sword in the future, it would allow for attacks from a distance, making it the most practical weapon.

Xu Jingtian focused all his energy on teleportation, which is essentially controlling objects remotely.

If your cultivation level advances further in the future, your dexterity in controlling objects will also increase accordingly, and your speed will become faster. Once you reach the third level of Qi Refining, you can practice controlling magical artifacts. After reaching the fourth level, you can go to your sect to select a flying sword.

Most disciples are like this, after all, if their cultivation level is too low, their magical attack power is not strong, and it is not as powerful as attacking with the help of flying swords.

Only when one's cultivation reaches a certain level, such as the Foundation Establishment stage, can one learn more advanced spells, and only then can the power of those spells be demonstrated.

While meditating to recover, Xu Jingtian picked up a magical artifact to practice teleportation techniques.

Suddenly, a deep roar came from afar, breaking the silence. Xu Jingtian jumped to his feet and looked into the distance with extreme vigilance.

"What's that sound?" Dongfang Sixing heard it too.

"I don't know what kind of ferocious beast it is," Xu Jingtian said calmly. "My spiritual energy has almost recovered. How's it going on your end?"

"I've fully recovered." Dongfang Sixing's face showed joy. Although he had encountered many dangers during his day with Xu Jingtian, he always managed to turn them into safety, and their relationship had also improved considerably. He still had less than ten drops of spiritual liquid in his dantian, so his recovery was much easier than Xu Jingtian's.

"That's good!"

The shouts gradually faded away, and the two, relieved, continued to sit cross-legged in meditation.

The spiritual energy here is also very rich, but Xu Jingtian's dantian needs far too much spiritual liquid replenished. He has only recovered about fifteen drops so far, and meditating like this is too inefficient. To fully recover, it would probably take a whole night.

If only I had a few pills to replenish my spiritual energy, Xu Jingtian thought to himself, and gradually entered a meditative state again.

"Ah!" A scream suddenly came from afar, startling the two of them awake once again.
