Qingfeng Li stood outside of the cave. His eyebrows locked together in worry.
Even though Qingfeng Li knew that there were many black demonic rats and their spiritual attacks were strong, Yitian Shou had the h.e.l.l Flower in his hand.
The h.e.l.l Flower was the most powerful flower in the first layer of h.e.l.l. It was capable of absorbing the spiritual energy of self-cultivators and beasts, so any spiritual attack would be useless against the h.e.l.l Flower.
"Doggy, what do you say about us going inside and s.n.a.t.c.hing the h.e.l.l Flower? Or else, Yitian Shou might be able to escape," Qingfeng Li asked the Black Puppy beside him.
Black Puppy shook its head and said, "No need. If we go in now, Yitian Shou and the black demonic rats will attack us right away. Let them keep fighting. When they are both worn out, that's when we step in."
Qingfeng Li frowned and asked, "Doggy, Yitian Shou possesses the h.e.l.l Flower, and I'm afraid that the h.e.l.l Flower will get damaged. The black demonic rats will find out that their spiritual attacks don't work, and they will attack physically instead. Even simply piling up will tire Yitian Shou to death."
Black Puppy shook its head and said affirmatively, "You don't need to worry about that. The h.e.l.l Flower isn't that fragile. Even if their claws. .h.i.t it, it won't break. The flower is an nonent.i.ty as it is composed of spirit energy. It's not a real flower."
Hearing Black Puppy's explanation, Qingfeng Li nodded in satisfaction. All of his worries completely disappeared.
Qingfeng Li looked inside the cave to observe the condition.
Inside the cave, the black demonic rats and Yitian Shou kept on fighting against each other.
The Black Demonic Rat King waved its hand to stop the black demonic rats' spiritual attacks because it found out that the h.e.l.l Flower in Yitian Shou's hand had made him invulnerable to them.
"Kiddos, don't use spirit energy to attack Yitian Shou. Use your claws and teeth to scratch and bite him to death." The Black Demonic Rat King waved his hand and said to the more than ten thousand black demonic rats beside him.
Sou sou sou sou sou…
The ten thousand black demonic rats soared up and swung their claws, cutting through the air with a loud wobbling sound and aimed at Yitian Shou with the intention of killing him.
Yitian Shou was reluctant to show any weakness. He channeled the spirit energy inside him, punched out with his right fist, which turned into a huge energy fist.
The fist contained invincible power, clas.h.i.+ng with those black demonic rats and making an exploding sound.
The rocks broke into pieces and the air separated. The clash even created a hole at the top of the cave. On the ground, there were numerous fissures.
Even more black demonic rats rushed out of the cavern, the amount endless and seemingly still increasing.
Those ten thousand of black demonic rats were like locust, filling up the whole cave and attacking Yitian Shou.
Yitian Shou was full of anger and regrets. He totally didn't expect the cave that he chose would be the lair of the black demonic rats. It was too unfortunate.
At the same time, a group of black demonic rats attacked the Flame Tiger. They wouldn't let go of this tiger either.
Qingfeng Li's face paled even though he was only watching from the outside. Seeing more than ten thousand black demonic rats at the same time, he was scared to death.
"Fortunately, I didn't go in, or I would have died." Qingfeng Li patted his chest and rejoiced.
The Flame Tiger wasn't as strong as Yitian Shou. In a short time, there were numerous scratches on its skin and it had bled everywhere.
The surrounding black demonic rats were all pumped up by their approaching victory and kept on attacking.
There were too many black demonic rats. They separated Yitian Shou and the Flame Tiger and attacked them individually.
The Flame Tiger roared and released a sonic attack, but it didn't work against those black demonic rats. It tried using physical attack and lashed out with its huge tiger paw. Although it could kill some black demonic rats by hitting them, there were endless amounts of them that surrounded its body.
These black demonic rats opened their mouths, revealing their sharp teeth, and biting the Flame Tiger's skin.
In a moment, the Flame Tiger was severely injured, and its stamina completely ran out. It fell onto the ground, causing the dust and pebbles to fly up.
All the black demonic rats rushed up when they saw the Flame Tiger was defeated. It was just like they saw a delicious meal. Their sharp teeth kept on biting and swallowing the skin and meat of the Flame Tiger.
In a short time, the powerful Flame Tiger died, leaving behind only a pile of bones.
Its skin, body, and internal organs were all eaten by the black demonic rats.
The Black Demonic Rat King waved its right hand and conjured a suctioning force which drew in the Demonic Pill on top of the bones of Flame Tiger.
The Flame Tiger was a ninth level king tier beast. It was extremely powerful and so was its demonic pill, which contained immense vital essence.
The king of black demonic rat opened its mouth and putthe Flame Tiger's Demonic Pill inside its mouth. In a short time, it refined the Demonic Pill into its own vital essence.
An immensely oppressive aura rushed out of the Black Demonic Rat King's body and covered up the entire sky.
The strength of the Black Demonic Rat King broke through to the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm.
The strength of demonic beasts at this level would be much stronger than Yitian Shou's.
The Black Demonic Rat King swung out its right palm abruptly into a palm that was as big as the sky.
The giant palm contained invincible power like a mountain and smashed onto Yitian Shou's body. Yitian Shou was sent flying backwards due to the attack, and landed heavily on the stone wall of the cave. Two of his ribs were broken, blood splashed out from his mouth, and he fell onto the ground.
Puuchi!
Yitian Shou opened his mouth and spat out another gulp of blood. His face was pale because his body was severely injured. He felt that his internal organs even had some ruptures.
"d.a.m.n this Black Demonic Rat King! After it consumed Flame Tiger's Demonic Pill, it became so strong that I am no match for it anymore," Yitian Shou cursed and stood up with difficulty. His whole body seemed to be breaking apart.
Yitian Shou knew that he couldn't stay here anymore. Staying here would be his death. Escape! He must escape and get away from this cave in order to survive!
"Ignite Essence Blood, Air Escape Technique," Yitian Shou chanted a spell. It was a spell from the Beast-Emperor Sect.
This was Yitian Shou's essence blood. The blood flew up to the sky and formed a bizarre talisman scripture. It wrapped Yitian Shou within an enormous ma.s.s of energy and rushed him out the cave like a black lightning bolt.
Qingfeng Li stood at the entrance of the cave and panicked when he saw Yitian Shou run towards him.
d.a.m.n this Yitian Shou! Why aren't you fighting inside the cave with the Black Demonic Rat King, instead running towards me? d.a.m.n it!
Qingfeng Li already prepared to kill Yitian Shou if he came out, so that he could take the h.e.l.l Flower from him.
