Shao Xuan immediately jumped away from the tree the moment his opponent appeared.
This opponent was not suited for close combat. If he got too close, Shao Xuan would only be at a disadvantage. His opponent was agile and had a natural advantage.
It was a strange-looking animal. It looked like a brown monkey, but it was not. Its limbs were long and agile, and its feet and toes were long. Its claws were as sharp as sickles and could be retracted into its toes like a cat. When it waved its arms, it looked like a whip with a blade attached to its front end. When it moved stealthily, it would retract its claws and move stealthily.
When it waved its claws at Shao Xuan, the ferocity in its eyes and the fangs in its mouth showed that this ferocious animal was in a state of resentment. It did not look like it was facing its prey, but more like it was facing its enemy.
This made Shao Xuan very puzzled.
This animal was very smart. It was not big, but it was a real Direbeast. The emotion in its eyes was too strong. Shao Xuan could not ignore it even if he wanted to. It was his first time in this place, and he did not know how he had offended it.
As he came down from the tree, the sharp edges behind him closed in.
Amidst the threatening murderous aura, the cold gleam of the sharp claws was like an angry slaughterer waving the scythe of the Grim Reaper, eager to reap all life.
The dense intertwining of claws made Shao Xuan unable to find a good opportunity to counterattack.
Shao Xuan stomped his feet on the ground and left his original position, leaving a pit in the ground. The surrounding soft soil and leaves splashed up, turning into debris as the claws approached.
Shao Xuan quickly ran through the dense forest. The pursuer behind him was still in a strong mood, and it could not wait to pounce on him.
Shao Xuan was already very fast, but this time, his opponent had no intention of hiding. It also gave chase, and Shao Xuan did not leave it far behind!
It was agile, fast, and every strike carried a strong murderous aura. Its claws were many, long, and sharp. It was also very clever. It seemed to be familiar with humans. What was the best way to deal with such a ferocious beast?
There seemed to be a tense atmosphere in the dense forest because of this chase. The other beasts did not intend to intervene, and they could not keep up with the speed of the two.
The sound of tree trunks being cut rang out again. The ferocious beast was using the tree trunks to increase its speed. The louder the sound of tree trunks being cut, the greater the force used by the other party. It was still accelerating. He was probably annoyed by Shao Xuan running around and couldn't wait any longer.
With the way the other party cut it, if it was a slightly thinner tree trunk, it would probably have been cut in half.
Hmm, cut the tree trunk?
Shao Xuan slightly slowed down his speed, and with a quick turn, the totemic power in his body instantly increased. The flame-like totemic patterns almost covered his entire body, and the totemic power in his body rushed to his legs like a flood, causing the muscles in his legs to swell up.
After making a sharp turn, Shao Xuan circled around, aimed at a tree, raised his leg, and kicked!
Crack!
The tree trunk, which was as thick as three people hugging it, was directly broken.
The broken tree trunk crashed directly into the brown ferocious beast that was chasing after him.
The ferocious beast that was chasing closely did not expect Shao Xuan to do this. Originally, when Shao Xuan slowed down, it had almost caught up. Its claws were already itching for blood, as if it could drink it in the next moment. However, it was greeted with such a ferocious attack.
Bang!
The brown figure was sent flying by the broken tree trunk, and smashed into the trunk of another tree, letting out a sharp cry.
However, although this ferocious beast looked thin, it was still a ferocious beast. Its body was strong, and although it was painful to be hit like this, it was not fatal. It was still a long way from being seriously injured.
Shao Xuan wanted to follow up with another attack, but the ferocious beast's reaction was very fast. When it fell from the tree trunk, its front limbs were like soft whips, and it swayed its body to avoid a direct collision with Shao Xuan.
The ferocious beast that fell into the grass and retreated a few steps landed on all fours. Its body was tense, and its eyes that were staring at Shao Xuan flashed with a dark light. It seemed to be thinking of something, or perhaps it was weighing the current situation.
Just when Shao Xuan thought that it would attack again, he found that the ferocious beast gave up on colliding with him, and turned to leave. This was the decision it made after weighing the pros and cons. Perhaps it realized that Shao Xuan was not an easy person to deal with.
However, it was too late to leave now. Shao Xuan would not let go of the ferocious beast that attacked him.
This time, the roles of the pursuer were reversed. The party that was originally chasing was now eager to escape. And the party that was being chased became the hunter.
Crack!
Crack!
Crack!
From time to time, the sound of tree trunks being kicked could be heard in the forest. Some of the birds resting in the trees were startled and flew away. The originally quiet forest became restless. The ferocious beasts that were walking in that direction twitched their ears, turned around, and left. They did not want to encounter such a barbaric and violent method. Anyway, they were not the unlucky ones, so they would not get involved.
The tree trunks that were constantly being kicked off did not directly hit the target every time, but even if they did not hit the target, they still brought some obstruction to the brown ferocious beast.
At this time, the ferocious beast was very regretful of provoking this person. It originally only wanted to vent its anger on this person, but it did not expect to hit an iron plate. It had never been afraid of close combat with humans, and it thought that it could still deal with them. Especially when the other party was young and alone, it would be easier to deal with. However, when it encountered a person who directly used a tree trunk as a weapon, no matter how sharp its claws were, it could not cut through such a thick trunk in one go. It was certain that it would be smashed if it could not dodge.
Its mind was in a mess, and it could not make the most correct response in the first place. The more chaotic it was, the more it would be smashed.
In the forest, Shao Xuan had caught up with the ferocious beast at some point, and he was even a bit ahead of it.
Crack!
Another tree trunk was kicked off, and the timing was very accurate. It directly hit the ferocious beast from the side.
The thick tree trunk with the smell of moss brought a strong wind, as if it was going to blow away everything in its path.
The ferocious beast that was hit let out a painful cry again and fell to the ground.
The ferocious beast that was hit by the tree trunks did not immediately get up this time. It was hit a little hard.
Seeing that the ferocious beast wanted to escape, Shao Xuan picked up the fallen tree trunk next to him and used it as a club to sweep it over.
Bang!
The ferocious beast that had just stood up was hit again.
The ferocious beast that fell to the ground let out a scream. It was no longer the ferocious roar from before, but a series of short cries. Coupled with the pitiful emotion in its eyes, it seemed to be begging for mercy. It even retracted its claws, hugged its head, and curled up there, screaming at Shao Xuan.
Seeing this, Shao Xuan threw away the thick tree trunk, pulled a long vine from a tree, and tied it up. Before the ferocious beast could react, the vine knot had already wrapped around its body. Its whiplike limbs were tied up, and even if it reached out with its claws, it could not immediately cut off all the vines.
After tying it up, Shao Xuan grabbed it by the neck and lifted it up.
Feeling the five fingers around its throat tighten, the ferocious beast with brown fur found it more and more difficult to breathe. It was injured, and with its neck strangled, it was already somewhat powerless. It struggled to move its bound limbs, but it was useless.
Lifting the ferocious beast, Shao Xuan wanted to figure out why this ferocious beast was so hostile towards him. Suddenly, his ears twitched. He heard a few rapid footsteps approaching. It was probably the commotion just now that had attracted them. Were they from the nearby tribes? Or was it someone else?
These people came quickly. Every one of them was burly, and their steps were hurried.
Obviously, they did not expect to see other tribesmen here. The five of them stopped when they got close. When they saw the ferocious beast in Shao Xuan's hands, one of them wanted to say something, but was stopped by his companion. Shao Xuan's back was facing them, so the five of them could not see Shao Xuan's face clearly. Moreover, Shao Xuan was wearing a cotton garment. To prevent poisonous insects from the forest, Shao Xuan had added some animal skin. Although the cloth and animal skin were somewhat worn out, they blocked most of the totemic tattoos on his arms and legs, so the five of them could not see clearly.
The five of them looked at each other, and the most stable of them stepped forward. Just as he was about to say something, Shao Xuan had already turned around.
Seeing the totemic tattoos on Shao Xuan's face that had not yet disappeared, the person who was about to speak was stunned. The corners of his eyes twitched, and the others' eyes almost popped out of their sockets. They were roaring in their hearts.
Holy shit, how could there be Yanjiao people here?!
