The most powerful part of a Saint Beast was its teeth and claws. If these two things were taken away, the remaining parts would be of little value.
However, knowing the young man's strength, none of them dared to say anything. Thus, they nodded in agreement.
Not long after, the huge wolf corpse was completely dissected.
Zhang Xuan had plenty of treasures on him, and even though the Goldface Skywolf wasn't weak, it wasn't enough to catch his eye. Besides, the other party had gone through a lot of trouble to kill it, so it had little to do with him. As a master teacher, he couldn't possibly steal another's treasure.
After looking at the distribution of the wolf corpses, he figured out something.
Initially, he had thought that these people were acquaintances, and had not separated after entering the ancient domain. However, from the looks of it, that was not the case.
They were obviously on guard against each other. In terms of distribution, they were trying their best to fight for more benefits for themselves. They looked like a team, but in reality, they were divided.
"This friend over there, seeing that you are alone, why don't you join us? The ancient domain is vast, and we don't know how many experts and saint beasts there are around. Not only will it be dangerous for you to travel alone, even if you manage to find something good, I'm afraid that you won't be able to obtain it!"
After distributing the items, the young man turned to Zhang Xuan and asked.
"Let's stick together and take care of each other!"
"Putting everything aside, a saint beast of the Goldface Skywolf's caliber is nearly extinct on the Master Teacher Continent. If one were to encounter one, one might not even be a match for it. Putting aside its pelt and carcass, one might not even be able to obtain a single strand of its hair!"
The others nodded in agreement.
Even though they would only be able to obtain a small portion of the loot, there were still many treasures to be had!
If he was alone, not only would he not be able to obtain her, but if he was robbed, he wouldn't even know how he died.
Outside, with the Mingshi Tang guarding the area, the cultivators did not dare to violate the rules. However, this was the ancient domain, and there were countless saint beasts. If they were to kill a few people and dispose of their corpses, who would know what was going on?
There were no rules here, only bottom lines and human nature.
Master teachers might be able to uphold their bottom line, but what about the Otherworldly Demons? What about the other rogue cultivators?
After a short pause, Zhang Xuan nodded. "Alright!"
Since he had no idea where to go, he might as well travel with this group of people. This way, he would be able to conceal his identity and avoid suspicion.
"I am Mu Xiao, a cultivator of the Mu Clan!" Seeing that Zhang Xuan had agreed, the young man stood up and announced haughtily, "I am Mu Xiao, a cultivator from the Mu Clan!"
Zhang Xuan suddenly understood.
So it was an expert from the Mu Clan.
This kind of strength was probably their trump card. He had never heard of it before.
Zhang Xuan cupped his fists. "I am Xuan Zhang, a wandering cultivator!"
"So it's Brother Xuan, I've heard so much about you!"
Mu Xiao spoke politely.
The remaining people also introduced themselves.
Out of the seven people, six were disciples from the major forces, and only one was a rogue cultivator.
"Let's go!"
After the alliance was formed, Mu Xiao gestured for everyone to advance forward.
Seeing that they were heading in the same direction as him, Zhang Xuan couldn't be bothered to say anything more, so he quickly followed behind them.
They walked continuously for four hours.
During this period of time, they had encountered three Holy Beasts that were comparable to the Goldface Skywolf. Not wanting to expose his ability to challenge those of a higher level, Zhang Xuan had not put in any effort at all.
Initially, when they saw how Zhang Xuan was able to walk around unscathed, they thought that he would possess innumerable treasures and means. However, upon seeing that his strength was only so-so, they lost all interest in him, and their attitude was no longer as cordial as before.
"You didn't put in much effort, so you don't have a share in this Holy Beast. We'll talk about it when we meet a suitable one next time!"
Mu Xiao said as he cut the third Saint Beast into two halves.
"I thought that he would have some formidable means, but as expected of a rogue cultivator!"
"He didn't even contribute to killing that Holy Beast. What does he want from us?"
…
The crowd discussed fervently among themselves.
Zhang Xuan couldn't be bothered to respond to those words. Instead, he turned his gaze toward the direction where the Holy Beast had appeared from, and his eyes glowed brighter and brighter.
The three Holy Beasts that he had encountered so far had all come from the same direction. Since that was the case, could the Temple of Confucius be right up ahead?
With such a thought in mind, Zhang Xuan was just about to leave the group and advance forward when he suddenly heard a rustling sound from the forest.
Raising his head, he saw a Crimsonfrons White Tiger standing before him.
This Crimsonfrons White Tiger possessed the strength of an Intuitive Impulse realm consummation cultivator. As soon as it appeared, it immediately exerted a powerful pressure that left one's heart palpitating in fear.
"Everyone, get ready!"
Mu Xiao bellowed anxiously.
Huala!
The crowd had plenty of battle experience, so they quickly heeded Mu Xiao's command and got into position. They gripped their weapons tightly in their hands, and a grim expression appeared on their faces.
Roar!
Seeing that someone was trying to stop it, the Crimsonfrons White Tiger immediately flew into a rage. With a furious roar, it charged forward.
As soon as the Crimsonfrons White Tiger made a move, it immediately exerted an astounding might. With a swipe of its claws, the air around it shrieked, and before it could even get close to Mu Xiao, a powerful shockwave reminiscent of sharp swords slashed toward him.
"Greenwood Shield!"
Mu Xiao narrowed his eyes in alarm. Knowing that he couldn't afford to wait for reinforcements, he hurriedly whipped out a circular wooden shield.
It was the treasure of the Mu Clan.
Kacha!
As valuable as the Greenwood Shield was, the Crimsonfrons White Tiger was simply too powerful. With a swipe of its claws, cracks began to appear on the wooden shield.
Pu!
Unable to withstand the might of the Crimsonfrons White Tiger, Mu Xiao spurted a mouthful of blood and was sent flying.
"Let's make a move together!"
Knowing that they could very well lose their lives if they didn't make a move, Mu Xiao immediately shouted.
Hearing Mu Xiao's command, the others swiftly made their move.
All kinds of weapons danced in the air, but they were unable to even pierce through the Crimsonfrons White Tiger's fur.
Roar!
With a furious roar, the Crimsonfrons White Tiger abruptly turned its massive body around.
The weapons of the group was knocked to the ground, and they were sent flying with severe injuries..
Even with all of them working together, they still couldn't stop it.
As expected of a Saint Beast at the pinnacle of the Intuitive Impulse realm, how terrifying!
"Am I going to die here?"
Seeing that they were unable to even pierce through the other party's fur despite using all of their strength, Mu Xiao and the others could only smile bitterly. They knew that they were really going to die here.
If he had known, he wouldn't have gone so deep.
Just when everyone thought that they were going to die, they saw the young man who had been minding his own business walk out from the back of the crowd.
"I can't fly here, and walking is too slow. You just happened to appear here … Since fate has brought us together, I'll give you a chance. Become my tamed beast!"
The person called Xuan Zhang said calmly as he walked up to the Crimsonfrons White Tiger.
"Roar???"
The Crimsonfrons White Tiger was stunned.
Is there something wrong with this guy's brain?
You even gave me a chance to be your pet …
Everyone else was also dumbfounded.
He hadn't even done much to deal with the Aureate Body realm Saint Beast earlier, so how could he possibly accept an Intuitive Impulse realm Saint Beast as his tamed beast?
Usually, a beast tamer would have to nurture a relationship with a tamed beast for several years before they could sign a contract with the tamed beast. It was hard to say how long the Temple of Confucius would remain open, but it was certain that it wouldn't last for several years.
Putting aside the other party's strength, time was already an impossibility!
Because of this, they would immediately surround and kill them whenever they saw one. They had never thought that they would have the opportunity to tame one and bring it back.
That fellow was only at Aureate Body realm, so how could he dare to say such words? Was he really not afraid of being smacked to death?
But before everyone could finish their doubts, the Crimsonfrons White Tiger roared furiously as it raised its claws to strike Xuan Zhang's head.
