Wild Dogs

At the same time, she slashed her longsword directly at the spirit beast's belly.

Clearly, this female cultivator had been faking it all along. Although she was injured, she was still more than capable of fighting this spirit beast.

However, she also understood that dragging it out would only lead to more problems, so she chose to deliberately show weakness and wait until the spirit beast got close before bending down and cutting directly into its abdomen.

The beast's back and head were the hardest parts, while the scales on its belly were relatively soft. Therefore, this sword strike directly ripped the beast open.

The spirit beast let out a high-pitched cry. Despite its severe injuries, it did not retreat but instead charged forward, madly lunging at the female cultivator once again.

"How is this possible?"

Even the female cultivator was startled; she never expected the spirit beast to pounce on her like a madman.

Seeing that the situation was not good, she hurriedly retreated, trying to avoid the spirit beast. However, she did not expect that the spirit beast was no longer able to defend itself and was just desperately biting at her.

At the same time, an even more powerful ball of fire crashed down.

In a moment of desperation, the female cultivator lightly touched her body, and a light shield appeared in front of her, forcefully blocking the ball of flame.

However, although she blocked the flames, she couldn't block the spirit beast's claw attack.

This claw tore through the defenses and went straight for the female cultivator's heart.

The female cultivator quickly dodged to the side, causing her shoulder to collide with the claw.

With a "rip" sound.

With this claw strike, the female cultivator's clothes were completely torn apart, and several bloody holes were torn in her left shoulder.

If this female cultivator hadn't been physically strong and quick-witted, her entire shoulder would probably have been torn off. Even so, her injuries were already quite severe.

Undeterred by its advantage, the spirit beast, knowing its life was nearing its end, launched another frenzied attack on the female cultivator.

Under this round of attacks, the injured female cultivator gradually became unable to withstand the onslaught and suffered several more claw strikes, making her injuries even more severe.

At this moment, the female cultivator's face was ashen, and she clearly couldn't hold on for much longer.

Just as the spirit beast was preparing to launch another desperate attack, its body swayed and then collapsed to the ground with a loud thud.

Having lost too much blood, the spirit beast could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.

Seeing that the spirit beast had also fallen to the ground, the female cultivator finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With a clang.

The sword fell to the ground, and the female cultivator collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

After a while, she laboriously reached the spirit beast's side and then began to rummage inside its belly.

A moment later, a beast bead and several pieces of purple-gold crystal appeared in her hand.

Upon seeing these purple-gold crystals, the female cultivator was overjoyed. She hurriedly put them into her storage bag and then tried to get up.

But after the fierce battle, she was completely exhausted and had no strength left to stand up.

Seeing this, Yang Fan was overjoyed, knowing that his chance had come.

He gripped the Earth Escape Talisman tightly, ready to escape at any moment. As long as the female cultivator hadn't caught her breath, she definitely wouldn't chase after him.

Just as Yang Fan was about to take action, he suddenly stopped and lowered his body again.

At that moment, a gust of wind rushed in from afar, and then Yang Fan saw a male cultivator flying over from a distance.

More cultivators approached, and Yang Fan quickly lowered his body, not daring to get too close.

At the same time, the male cultivator quickly flew to a place only a few feet away from the female cultivator.

The female cultivator gripped her long sword tightly, staring at her opponent warily, but at this moment she was powerless and could hardly even protect herself.

"I never expected to see such a delicate and beautiful woman in this remote and impoverished place."

Unexpectedly, after the male cultivator arrived, his gaze did not immediately fall on the two spirit beasts, but instead fell on the female cultivator who was lying on the ground, and a wicked smile appeared on his lips.

Seeing this, the female cultivator's heart sank; she realized she had encountered the most troublesome situation.

She wouldn't say anything if the male cultivator had designs on the two spirit beast bodies, but if he turned his attention to her, then things would be troublesome.

In desperation, the female cultivator immediately began to circulate her qi in secret, but at this moment her injuries were too severe.

It was extremely difficult for her to gather spiritual energy. More importantly, her meridians were damaged, and she felt excruciating pain all over her body every time she circulated her spiritual energy.

Seeing the male cultivator staring at her expectantly, the female cultivator couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Sir, I advise you not to make any moves against me, or I will make you wish you were dead."

"Make me wish I were dead?"

After carefully examining the female cultivator, the male cultivator couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be a Nascent Soul cultivator, right? But your injuries are so severe now, you probably can't even release your Nascent Soul, right? In that case, you can do whatever you want with me, can't you?"

As he spoke, the male cultivator licked his lips and walked toward the female cultivator with a somewhat greedy expression.

Seeing this, the female cultivator gripped her longsword tightly in extreme anger.

"Don't come any closer, or I'll really kill you."

"Oh? Then I'd like to see how you kill me."

Seeing that the female cultivator only dared to threaten him, the male cultivator felt much more at ease.

He understood that if a Nascent Soul cultivator truly had the strength to retaliate, they would definitely not sit still and remain motionless; they would certainly make a move, which meant his opportunity had arrived.

This male cultivator was only at the late Foundation Establishment stage; he was not qualified to lay a finger on a Nascent Soul female cultivator under normal circumstances. He only had a chance when the Nascent Soul female cultivator was weak.

Seeing the rare opportunity, he immediately pounced on the Nascent Soul female cultivator, instantly closing the distance to her by only a few feet.

But at that moment, the Nascent Soul female cultivator immediately concentrated the spiritual energy she had painstakingly gathered and unleashed a powerful sword strike.

With a "hissing" sound.

In an instant, the sword was drawn and thrust directly towards the male cultivator's heart.

Oh no! In a moment of panic, the male cultivator hastily shifted his body to the side, and the sword barely managed to pierce the other side of his body.

With a "hissing" sound.

The sword pierced through the male cultivator's body.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the male cultivator grabbed the sword with his backhand and pulled it backward with force. He then took several steps back, carrying the long sword with him.

The female cultivator was already seriously injured, and with such a forceful tug, her longsword naturally slipped from her hand.

Seeing that she had lost her longsword, the female cultivator was almost in despair.

Although she still had a few weapons in her storage bag, she had no spiritual energy left, making it extremely difficult to open the bag. For a moment, she didn't know what to do.

"You bitch, how dare you hurt me!"

The male cultivator glanced at the wound on his chest and gritted his teeth in anger.

The sword almost struck his heart. If he hadn't reacted quickly enough to dodge most of the blade, he would probably be dead by now.
