Mortal Bones

"Moo!..."

As Xu Taiping began to concentrate, the roar of the Iron-Slicing Bull, the whistling of the mountain wind, and the "crackling" sound of the bull gnawing on the ore all appeared clearly in his mind.

"Roar!..."

Just at this moment, a wild lion more than ten feet tall suddenly roared and pounced on the herd of Iron-Slicing Bulls from the forest.

Faced with this sudden change, Xu Taiping was shocked at first, but after recognizing that the strange beast was a wild lion, he inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity in his heart.

Because the first body forged by his Flame Emperor Body Forging Technique was this wild lion body.

And now, he can directly transform into the true body of a wild lion.

At this time, accompanied by the sound of a beast biting, the wild lion, which was a circle larger than the Iron-snapping Bull, bit the back of the Iron-snapping Bull's neck and threw it to the ground.

Although he is now a warrior in the Great Saint Realm, the strong physique and blood power displayed by the wild lion between the pounce and the bite still made him feel palpitations.

Although he was confident that his physique and blood power were far superior to that of the wild lion, this wild lion would definitely beat it in the use of physique and blood power.

"Under the condition of consuming the same amount of physical energy and blood, this wild lion can at least convert 90% of its physical energy and blood into killing power."

"And I, unless I can perform the Ancestral Saint Fist at the extreme state, can at most convert 60% of my physical energy and blood into killing power."

"But for the Ancestral Saint Fist at the extreme state, under normal circumstances, being able to throw one punch in a battle is already the limit."

"So this is equivalent to wasting 30% of the blood in vain."

However, just this brief glance made him realize his inadequacy in the use of blood and physical energy, which undoubtedly made him more eager to enter this small cave to train.

I just felt that even if it was not for other reasons, being able to fight with these spiritual birds and beasts from the ancient times would be of great benefit to his martial arts practice.

"Bang!"

Just as Xu Taiping was thinking this, a dull collision sound suddenly came from the bottom of the hillside.

Xu Taiping took a closer look, and then his heart trembled as he said:

"This wild lion couldn't withstand the collision of the iron-biting wild bull?"

On the lower slope, the wild lion that was about to bite off the neck of the iron-biting wild bull was hit by another iron-biting wild bull and thrown high.

What's more terrifying is that before the wild lion's body landed on the ground, another iron-biting wild bull rushed over as if it had calculated the position where the wild lion would land.

"Bang!..."

As another silent collision sounded, the wild lion that had not yet fallen to the ground was directly hit by the iron-biting wild bull and its body was broken in half.

Even at such a long distance, the sound of the wild lion's spine breaking was still clearly audible.

Xu Taiping, who saw this scene, felt a little scalp-numbing and said:

"Is the impact force of this barbaric bull so terrifying?"

Xu Taiping, who has the physique of a wild lion, knows very well how powerful a barbaric lion is. That is why he was so surprised when he saw that the barbaric bull could break its spine and bend its body in half with one hit.

Immediately, Xu Taiping continued to observe the situation over there, and muttered in his heart with some fear:

"Fortunately, I didn't use that knife just now, otherwise, with my spirit and blood greatly damaged, I might not be able to kill a barbaric bull even if I were given an incense stick, let alone a cup of tea."

And the experience of the barbaric lion just now finally made him understand why Brother Xiang specifically told him to wait until a barbaric bull was alone before taking action.

With this in mind, Xu Taiping immediately began to re-play the process of hunting the barbarian bull.

Just as Xu Taiping was thinking this, he saw a group of barbarian bulls suddenly surrounded the lion and began to bite its body.

Xu Taiping was surprised to see this:

"These barbarian bulls are actually carnivorous beasts?"

Although Xiang Nantian could not see the situation outside, he immediately understood after hearing what Xu Taiping said.

He just laughed and said:

"Taiping, you saw the wild lion attacking the iron-biting bull but was killed instead? When these wild lions are hungry, they will attack the iron-biting bull without knowing whether they will live or die."

Xu Taiping closed his eyes and nodded:

"That's right, Brother Xiang. Just now, a wild lion attacked an iron-biting bull, but was killed by another iron-biting bull nearby. Now they are gnawing on the body of the wild lion."

Before Xiang Nantian could speak, Qi Haitang on the side said with a smile:

"Taiping, these iron-biting bulls are not gnawing on the wild lion's flesh and blood, but his bones."

After hearing what Qi Haitang said, Xu Taiping immediately mobilized the power of soul sensing to take a closer look, and found that it was indeed as Qi Haitang said, the group of iron-biting bulls were not gnawing on the wild lion's flesh and blood, but its bones.

Xiang Nantian then said:

"However, this group of barbaric bulls will not actively attack other beasts. They will only eat their bones when their own kind are attacked."

Xu Taiping nodded.

Although he knew that this group of barbaric bulls were not carnivorous beasts, the brutal sight of them eating the bones of the royal family still made Xu Taiping feel a palpitation in his heart.

Qi Haitang sensed Xu Taiping's uneasiness and immediately confirmed with him again:

"Taiping, if you are not sure, you can give up this test."

Xiang Nantian frowned when he heard this, but he said nothing in the end, just looked at Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping shook his head without any hesitation and said:

"No need."

He then added without looking back:

"It was easy to say just now, but if you retreat now, it would be like cutting off your own path."

When he said this, Xu Taiping's fighting spirit suddenly rose.

Immediately, in the stunning eyes of Qi Haitang and his wife, Xu Taiping pressed the hilt of the knife and continued in a low voice:

"The wild lion had the courage to face a group of iron-biting bulls in order to fill its stomach. If I, a seeker of the truth, retreat at this time, wouldn't I be worse than the beasts who only seek survival?"

Just as Xu Taiping said this, because most of the bulls in the herd were attracted by the corpse of the wild lion, a barbarian bull that was still working hard to gnaw on the iron ore was finally left alone.

"Sister Haitang, Brother Xiang, I'm going!"

Xu Taiping calculated the distance, and then without any hesitation, he stepped out of the dragon-slaying monument.

"Boom!..."

Almost at the moment when his feet touched the ground of the small cave, the sky and earth of the small cave suddenly changed color, and the group of bulls that were still gnawing on the corpse of the wild lion suddenly looked at Xu Taiping with their blood-red eyes.

Although Xu Taiping was very surprised, he did not panic. Instead, he used the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi Bu the moment his feet landed on the ground.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a deafening sound of breaking through the air, in just a breath, Xu Taiping came to the back of the lone iron-sharp bull.

"Swish!"

Without hesitation, Xu Taiping drew his sword and prepared to cut the neck of the iron-sharp bull in front of him.
