After getting hit by his Tiger Worshipped by All Beasts, the Saber-toothed Tiger fell down and its vital signs showed that it was dead.
Although Lin Yun felt much relieved inside, one could tell he was a little confused now through his face.
He also practiced Tiger Worshipped by All Beasts in daily cultivation.
But today it made him a little confused. It was a set of fierce fist skill. But when he used it, he felt like he was not throwing a punch, but a sword, a very sharp sword.
Fist? Sword?
Was it because of that mysterious scroll painting with the words “My heart shelters a fierce tiger which, however, enjoys sniffing roses”?
Lin Yun had a feeling that the Tiger Fist he practiced was already quite different from the original one known as a basic fist skill.
He had to study the scroll painting more after he went back if he wanted to find the secret behind it.
The more he thought of the tiger in the painting, the more mysterious it became.
Facing the demonized Saber-toothed Tiger, he had no chance to win if he hadn’t recalled the tiger in the painting.
That helped neutralize the evil spirit of the Saber-toothed Tiger, otherwise it was really hard to say who could win.
Suddenly a light flashed across the air.
Lin Yun noticed it subtly. He turned around and saw a weak light glowing in the chest of the Saber-toothed Tiger.
“Internal Elixir?”
Internal Elixir could only be borne inside the body of evil beasts, but not all evil beasts.
After an Internal Elixir was borne, the evil beast could break its own limits and advance like a martial practitioner.
Take the Saber-toothed Tiger as an example. However powerful it was, it could only reach the fifth level at most.
But if an Internal Elixir was borne inside its body, that’d be different. It could advance to the fifth level, sixth level, or even ten, the highest level.
Lin Yun took a deep breath, and murmured, “If I hadn’t killed the Saber-toothed Tiger today, it would probably become the Evil King here in Hengyun Mountains.”
Maybe that Saber-toothed Tiger bore the rare Internal Elixir because it ate the psychic fruit by accident.
Pit-pat!
Lin Yun’s heart began to beat fast, nearly out of his control.
Even though it was the Internal Elixir of a half-demonized beast, its value was inestimable.
Compared with it, all those beast body parts he collected before were nothing.
Without too much thinking, Lin Yun took out his knife, opened the tiger’s chest and took the Internal Elixir out.
After it left the tiger’s body, it lost the light immediately, looking just ordinary.
But Lin Yun could clearly feel its strong spiritual power.
After he put away the Internal Elixir, Lin Yun did not bury the Saber-toothed Tiger right away.
He walked to a tree about 100 meters away, and had a look at the old sword in the tree, feeling a little ashamed.
As a sword practitioner, he failed to hold his sword, which was the biggest shame in his life ever.
Not long after he put away his sword, Lin heard some hasty steps.
Judging from the steps, there must be many people.
On thinking of the Internal Elixir in his breast pocket, Lin Yun murmured to himself, “Damn! It’ll be bad if they find this.”
Whoosh!
Before Lin Yun took any action, those people already arrived, all wearing robes of Qingyun Sect.
After taking a close look, Lin Yun found that he met their head before.
Right! It was Chen Xiao, an outer disciple who had ever asked Lin to maintain his sword.
“It is indeed an evil beast. Look at its cut. Its Internal Elixir has been taken away.”
Chen Xiao really had sharp eyes. Judging from the cut Lin made, he could tell there was an Internal Elixir.
But what made Lin Yun surprised was that they just ignored him since they came.
Looking around, Chen Xiao said, “It seems that guy got badly injured, otherwise he wouldn’t have left such a precious evil beast’s body behind.”
“Senior Chen, should we chase him?”
“Not a chance. Let’s ask him first.”
Chen Xiao set his eyes on Lin Yun, as if he just found Lin there. He asked, “You were here earlier. Did you see someone?”
Lin Yun got all blank in his head for a sec and then understood what was happening.
So Chen Xiao had never expected that it was Lin who killed the evil beast.
It was understandable. He was just a sword slave in Chen Xiao’s eyes. How could he defeat the Saber-toothed Tiger?
Before their fight, Lin Yun himself also had never expected that he was able to kill the Saber-toothed Tiger.
“No.”
Lin Yun replied, wearing no expression on his face.
“You good-for-thing! Get lost!” shouted Chen Xiao, with a hint of contempt in his eyes, after finding out that Lin Yun was useless for him.
That was what Lin Yun wished for. Chen Xiao had reached the fifth level of Martial Practice, while others were at least on the fourth level.
He didn’t have a chance against so many people by himself.
“Wait!”
After Lin Yun took a few steps, Chen Xiao stopped Lin, and threw his sword to Lin.
Whoosh!
The scabbard was inserted into the ground, with its body slightly shaking.
Chen Xiao said with kind of arrogance, “You are here right in time. My sword needs maintenance. You just do it here, so I don’t have to go to the Sword-washing Chamber. ”
“Sorry. I’m not a sword slave anymore. Excuse me.”
“Just cut the crap. I won’t let you do it for nothing. I can give you part of the tiger’s body.”
Lin Yun was a little angry. It was he who killed the Saber-toothed Tiger. It should belong to him. Chen Xiao really crossed the line.
“Hehe, that sword slave really got a nerve refusing Senior’s demand. Senior, shall we give him a good beating?”
“He was like an asshole when he was a sword slave. Now he really thinks he is equal to us?”
“Haha, I bet if it were Su Ziyao’s sword, that asshole would have maintained it already like a lackey without saying a word.”
“Hahaha!”
It was already not a secret in the whole sect that Lin Yun secretly crushed on Su Ziyao, and now they brought it up again.
This had been the biggest joke in their sect ever.
Everyone there burst into laughter on hearing Su Ziyao’s name.
Chen Xiao said, “Lin Yun, be good. I’m not a bully. If I beat you, I will ruin my reputation. You do the maintenance of my sword, and I will say some nice words before Su Ziyao when I see her.
“Hahaha!”
They all burst into laughter again. Looking at those mocking faces, Lin Yun just kept a poker face.
Suddenly he thought of something.
Lin Yun took a few steps forward and pulled out Chen Xiao’s sword.
Shh! Shh!
A smell of blood came out along with the shaking of the sword. The sword was two-finger wide, with wave-like cloud patterns. It must be a thoroughly tempered sword with superb quality.
The gap on the edge should be left by someone who used it to fight these days. But still it was sharp.
With cold lights shining now and then, it made people tremble with fear.
A nice sword!
Compared with those cyan steel swords allocated by the sect, it was quite a few levels higher. It was not inferior to the Magical Weapons.
“Be careful! My sword is expensive. It really cost me a lot, nearly half a year’s savings of me...”
When talking about his sword, Chen Xiao looked a little cocky, with even pride in his eyes.
Crack!
Before Chen finished his words, his sword in Lin Yun’s hand now broke into pieces.
The smile on Chen Xiao’s face froze. He felt like his heart got pricked. So painful that he even couldn’t speak.
Meanwhile, all the other outer disciples also got stunned and couldn’t even say a word.
So it wasn’t a coincidence that three swords broke in a row in the Weapon Chamber.
“Senior, it looks like you bought a fake sword with your half a year’s savings,” said Lin Yun in a sympathetic tone, with the hilt left in his hand.
“My Cloud…Sword!”
Chen Xiao shouted with all the strength he had, with his eyes bloodshot and lips trembling. It looked like he was gonna swallow Lin Yun.
This sword was as important as his own life.
He spent nearly half a year to save money for this Cloud Sword.
Exactly speaking, he just bought this sword less than half a month ago.
But now it broke into pieces in Lin Yun’s hands. Just imagine how painful he would feel now.
“You sword slave! I will kill you!”
Chen Xiao was outraged. He walked towards Lin Yun, with the strong momentum of the fifth level of Martial Practice.
Lin Yun was a little startled in his heart. Chen Xiao’s power was really overwhelming.
Judged from his momentum, he might have reached the summit of the fifth level, only one step close to the sixth level.
But Lin didn’t panic. He counted in his heart.
Roar!
When he counted to three, a deep roaring sound came from afar. With the roaring sound approaching, there was also obvious evil spirit that could be felt. The strong wind derived from the evil spirit was blowing the trees around.
“It’s an evil beast!”
Chen Xiao and all the other outer disciples’ faces all got distorted with fear. With such thick evil spirit, it must be an evil beast.
Damn it!
It must be the Saber-toothed Tiger’s body that brought another evil beast here. Its body was a wonderful tonic for other evil beasts.
That goddamn sword slave damaged Chen Xiao’s sword, and now made him have no time to take away the Saber Tiger’s body.
“You son of a bitch, this isn’t over,” said Chen Xiao, and then hurried away. He dare not risk his life to fight against the evil beast.
“Senior brother, your sword.”
Lin Yun threw the sword hilt at Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao caught it subconsciously. Then he nearly fell down due his extreme anger after he looked at it.
Chen Xiao was so angry that he wanted to turn back, but his sense stopped him.
