Chapter 574: Golden-striped Tiger

Chapter 574: Chapter 574: Golden-striped Tiger

On the back of the youth, a blackened area could be seen, seemingly indicative of a poison-inflicted bite mark.

“This is the poison of the Heart Demon Spider!” Zhou Zhishui exclaimed.

The youth’s face was deathly pale, devoid of all color. His eyes wide in shock, he opened his mouth to speak, but no sound emerged from his throat.

Fang Lin sighed. Even though he had a way to neutralize the venom of the Heart Demon Spider, at this point the poison had seeped into the youth’s heart and lungs. His death was inevitable.

After a while, the youth stopped breathing, his eyes wide open. His body quickly stiffened and darkened.

“When did he get poisoned?” Everyone was chilled to the bone. It was horrifying how he had died so suddenly, without a clue.

Fang Lin guesses, “I suppose while we were running, he was bitten by the Heart Demon Spider. If we had found out at that time, perhaps we could have saved him.”

A hush fell over the group. They had started off with nine members, but within less than a day, three had already died.

“What can we do?” One of the remaining youths asked, despair written all over his face, “Are we all going to die here?”

Nobody answered. They were in a dangerous place where death could come at any moment. Even Fang Lin wasn’t sure that he could survive.

They did not stay but moved on. After walking for nearly half an hour, it gradually began to darken.

Luckily, Fang Lin had sprinkled medicated powder on everyone. The ordinary Demon Beasts wouldn’t trouble them once they caught the scent.

“Eh? There’s a field of medicinal herbs here.” At this moment, Zhou Zhishui exclaimed with delight, pointing at a spot not far ahead.

Everyone looked in the direction Zhou Zhishui was pointing, and sure enough, they saw a variety of medicinal herbs growing there.

“Don’t act rashly, a Demon Beast might be guarding nearby,” the steward who had activated his Spirit Eye warned. He then advanced carefully towards the field.

The field was quite large, and at first glance, they could already see many rare herbs growing there, which brought smiles to their faces.

Fang Lin wasn’t looking at the field though, but at the surrounding area. Logically, big uncultivated lands like this would attract Demon Beasts, hence there should definitely be some hiding nearby. Or else, the herbs would have been trampled and ruined long ago.

The steward with the Spirit Eye suddenly stopped, the Spirit Eye on his forehead radiating white light. He stared fixedly at the dark place opposite to the field of herbs.

“Here it comes!” Suddenly, a nauseating smell hit them, and a golden tiger sprang out from the darkness, its roars echoing as it charged at the steward of the Pill Alliance who was at the front.

The appearance of the tiger changed everyone’s expressions.

The tiger was covered in golden fur, with golden patterns on its forehead, and it was of a size similar to a yak.

The three stewards immediately attacked, but the backlash sent all three of them retreating. The tiger, however, let out a threatening growl, its body emitting a chilling Demon Qi.

“This is a three-transformed Golden-striped Tiger, not easy to deal with,” said the steward with the Spirit Eye who was by far the strongest one among them.

A Beast of the same realm would be stronger than a martial artist. This Golden-striped Tiger, possessing the talented bloodline like the Fire Ape, would become even more horrifying once it tapped into its bloodline power. Even the three of them combined might not be able to stop it.

“We have to attack too! Let’s take out this Golden-striped Tiger together!” Fang Lin roared, pulling out a large bone club and charging at the tiger.

Zhou Zhishui and another youth hesitated for a moment before taking out their weapons and rushing to Fang Lin’s side to help.

But the tiger didn’t seem afraid at all, it was especially belligerent at the sight of someone of the Earth Element realm daring to challenge it.

Roar!

Its growl was so loud it hurt everyone’s eardrums. Everyone attacked together with various means. The tiger suffered some damages this time and retreated. Blood flowed down from its back.

“Freeze!” Fang Lin activated his Spirit Eye, a blue light emerged and enveloped the Golden-striped Tiger, intending to restrict its movements.

But the next moment, the tiger leaped up and a golden light shone on its body.

Boom!

A golden whip lashed out at everyone, like a raging and surging river.

The three stewards stood in front, made a full-powered attack, and successfully blocked the golden whip.

Fang Lin’s Spirit Eye shimmered, and suddenly, he disappeared. The next moment, he had appeared behind the tiger.

“Danger!” Seeing Fang Lin appearing behind the tiger, Zhou Zhishui shouted in alarm, her face filled with horror.

The Golden-striped Tiger, sensitive as it was, immediately noticed someone behind it. It swung its tail, which was as sturdy as a steel whip.

If it hit, it would cause broken bones and torn muscles. For a martial artist with a weaker physique, the tail could split their body into two.

Fang Lin reacted quickly and deftly launched the Nine Heavens Step Skill to dodge the tail. At the same time, he relentlessly slammed the large bone club onto the tiger’s waist.

With a thud, Fang Lin was thrown into the air, the club in his hand barely managed to stay gripped.

However, the strike had taken effect. The Golden-striped Tiger was wailing, barely able to stay on its feet.

Fang Lin understood well that the tigers had pretty much no weak spots, the only place you could consider a weak spot was its waist.

If a sufficiently strong attack was dealt there, tiger-like Demon Beasts would find it difficult to move.

“Good opportunity!” Seeing this, the three stewards were overjoyed and immediately launched an attack.

The Golden-striped Tiger, enraged, activated the inherited bloodline in its body which greatly increased its power. A swipe of its paw sent all three stewards flying.

When Fang Lin saw this, he quickly retreated. The tiger had gone berserk at this point. If he was too close, he would surely be torn to pieces.

However, he had achieved his goal. He had sprinkled some medicated powder on the Golden-striped Tiger.

“Restrict its movements. I have poisoned it,” Fang Lin said. He activated the power of the Spirit Eye, blue light emerging, hindering the Golden-striped Tiger’s movements.

The steward of the Pill Alliance also used the power of the Spirit Eyes to restrict the movement of the Golden-striped Tiger. Despite its intimidating stature, under the coercion of the two Spirit Eyes, the Golden-striped Tiger struggled to move.

After a while, the tiger fell to the ground, twitching, its once aggressive aura now faded.

Seeing this, Fang Lin breathed a sigh of relief. The poison had finally taken effect.

The steward from the Pill Alliance stepped forward, and with a single stroke, beheaded the Golden-striped Tiger. Blood gushed out.

“You took the kill from us, but that too sounds good. You helped us take care of this Golden-striped Tiger. You’ve done us a favor, so we’ll spare your lives,” an arrogant voice suddenly echoed through the area at this moment.
