The Crimson Flame Tiger was approaching menacingly. Nie Tian didn't dare to face it head-on. Using the Great Steps of the Wakabayashi Butterfly, his body moved a few meters away in a strange manner.
"Bang!" The Scarlet Flame Tiger was like a small mountain as its steel claws descended. The boulder that Nie Tian was originally standing on was sliced into four to five pieces. Even the ground was left with terrifying cracks.
Nie Tian retreated a few meters to increase the distance between him and the Scarlet Flame Tiger.
The Scarlet Flame Tiger was indeed a rank two spirit beast. The strength of its claw was at least ten thousand jin!
And Nie Tian only had a few thousand jin of strength. Even with the addition of the tenth meridian's star energy, it was impossible for his strength to reach ten thousand jin. Facing the Scarlet Flame Tiger head-on was no different from courting death.
"Roar!" The Scarlet Flame Tiger let out an angry roar after its attack missed. It turned its huge body and lashed out with its tail that was like a steel whip.
"What a cunning beast!" Nie Tian didn't expect the Scarlet Flame Tiger to have such a move. He couldn't react in time and it was already too late for him to dodge.
At this critical moment, he raised his arms to protect his chest.
"Pa!" The tiger's tail lashed out and hit Nie Tian's arms, sending him flying into the air.
Nie Tian somersaulted in the air and elegantly landed on the ground.
However, there was a scarlet wound on his arms. It was a terrifying sight.
"Fortunately, I have the star energy. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to protect my arms." Nie Tian thought that the star energy had greatly improved his body. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to withstand this attack with his ninth level Origin Meridian cultivation.
After its attack succeeded, the Scarlet Flame Tiger became even more berserk. It turned around and charged at Nie Tian.
"Red-furred beast, do you think I'm a stinky loach just because a flood dragon doesn't show its might?" Nie Tian sneered. The origin energy in his body surged and his battle intent soared.
"Eastern Emperor Finger! Kill! " Nie Tian pointed his finger out. An air-piercing force gushed out from the tip of his finger and attacked the Scarlet Flame Tiger with an inconceivable trajectory.
The Scarlet Flame Tiger sensed danger and its fiery red head shook in the air.
"Pu!" The Donghuang Finger deviated slightly and hit one of the Scarlet Flame Tiger's eyes. The sharp force directly exploded the eyeball!
This was the first time that Nie Tian had used the power of the stars in this Eastern Emperor's Finger, and its immense power was enough to pose a fatal threat to an Essence Spirit practitioner.
"Howl!" One of its eyeballs was destroyed, and blood dyed half of the Scarlet Flame Tiger's head red. The sudden sharp pain made it howl in pain.
The Scarlet Flame Tiger landed on the ground and glared at Nie Tian with its remaining eye, as if it wanted to crush the young master in front of it.
Nie Tian became slightly nervous. At this moment, the Scarlet Flame Tiger was already in a berserk state. If he was not careful, he might die on the spot.
The scarlet fur on the Scarlet Flame Tiger's body stood on end, emitting a tyrannical aura.
"Whoosh!" Just when the Scarlet Flame Tiger was about to attack again, a huge figure suddenly flew over.
It was the Ice Snake King!
The Ice Snake King's sudden appearance caught the Scarlet Flame Tiger off guard. It wrapped itself around the Scarlet Flame Tiger's body, causing it to lose its ability to move.
"Howl!" The Scarlet Flame Tiger fell to the ground and let out a roar. Its huge head twisted with all its might, wanting to bite off the Ice Snake King's head.
However, the Ice Snake King's wrapping strength was very strong. It slowly tightened its body, squeezing the Scarlet Flame Tiger until it could not breathe.
In an instant, Nie Tian was also stunned by the sudden scene.
He did not expect that the Ice Snake King, which had just finished laying its eggs, could suddenly explode with such great power.
In order to protect its child in the cave, the Ice Snake King did not hesitate to fight to the death with the Scarlet Flame Tiger!
The Scarlet Flame Tiger's resistance became even more violent. Its huge body tumbled, smashing the surrounding boulders into pieces. A horrifying hole appeared on the Ice Snake King's body, and it bled non-stop.
"I need to seize the opportunity. If this continues, the Ice Snake King will definitely be killed by the Scarlet Flame Tiger!" Nie Tian observed from the side, ready to give the Scarlet Flame Tiger a fatal blow at any moment.
After all, the Ice Snake King was not a rank two spirit beast, and it had just finished laying its eggs. Its body was very weak, so it was impossible for it to kill the Scarlet Flame Tiger.
"Now is the time!" Seizing the opportunity, Nie Tian stepped out with the Great Swan Steps, and approached the two huge beasts that were engaged in a fierce battle in a strange manner.
When he was close to the Scarlet Flame Tiger, Nie Tian bent his body and stepped out with both feet, riding on the Scarlet Flame Tiger's neck.
He grabbed one of the Scarlet Flame Tiger's ears with one hand and took out Absolute Heaven Cutter with the other. He aimed at the back of the Scarlet Flame Tiger's head and stabbed it.
"Pu!" The sword stabbed in. Nie Tian grabbed the hilt of the sword and twisted it. Immediately, blood gushed out like a fountain.
"Roar!" The Scarlet Flame Tiger howled in pain. It used all of its strength for the last time, and its huge body leaped into the air, smashing its head into a boulder.
"Not good!" Nie Tian cried out in alarm. He kicked out fiercely, sending himself flying backward.
"Bang!" With a loud sound, the Scarlet Flame Tiger and the Ice Snake King smashed into the boulder. The boulder, which was five to six meters tall, was smashed into pieces with a loud bang.
At the same time, Nie Tian fell from the sky and landed steadily. It was a daunting experience, but not a dangerous one.
He took a step forward to check on the Scarlet Flame Tiger and the Ice Snake King.
Half of the Scarlet Flame Tiger's head was smashed in, and blood flowed everywhere. It was completely dead.
The Ice Snake King was covered in blood, and it was on its last breath. Its two eyes looked in the direction of the cave, where its child was.
Mo Ruxi only dared to walk over after seeing the two giant beasts fall. She looked at Nie Tian with her terrified eyes, "Nie Tian, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Nie Tian smiled faintly. He did not look like he had just experienced a moment of life and death.
Nie Tian looked at the unwilling Ice Snake King, took a step forward, and said, "Go in peace. I will take care of your child for you."
The Ice Snake King seemed to understand Nie Tian's words. Its blue eyes slowly closed, and it lost its last bit of life.
Nie Tian no longer hesitated. He took a step forward, cut open the Ice Snake King's head, and took out the crystal Spirit Core.
Then, he reached into the bloody hole at the back of the Scarlet Flame Tiger's head and took out a red Spirit Core.
Two Spirit Cores, one red and one white, one fire and one ice. They were very precious.
Nie Tian handed the Scarlet Flame Tiger's Spirit Core to Mo Ruxi and said, "Take it. The Scarlet Flame Tiger's Spirit Core will be of great help to your future cultivation."
"This, this Spirit Core, you're giving it to me?" Mo Ruxi was stunned. Nie Tian had risked his life to get two Spirit Cores, and he was giving one to her directly. It made her feel a little touched.
Nie Tian, however, gave a heartless smile and said, "Everyone who sees it has a share."
"..." Mo Ruxi was speechless.
Nie Tian put away the Ice Snake King's Spirit Core and looked at the cave in the valley. He could not help but frown and said, "Is there another Ice Snake King in the cave? Why is this cold aura so strong?"
In the cave that the Ice Snake King swore to protect, a very strong cold aura came out.
This aura seemed to be even stronger than the Ice Snake King's!
Nie Tian was very curious. Could there be a second Ice Snake King in the cave?
"Ruxi, wait here. I'll go in and take a look." Nie Tian was not sure what was in the cave, so he asked Mo Ruxi to wait outside.
Mo Ruxi glanced at the corpses in the valley and could not help but gulp. She whispered, "Then come out quickly."
