Originally, the moonlight was already very weak. In the canyon, it was almost pitch black.
Teng Qingshan stood at the bottom of the canyon, motionless.
He was listening with his ears!
"Where did this demonic beast go?" Teng Qingshan listened for a long time. Other than the sound of the wind and the leaves being blown by the wind, he could not hear the demonic beast running.
"This demonic beast should be living in the Blazing Mountain. It has been here for a long time, so it must be very familiar. To find it, I'm afraid it will be difficult. " Teng Qingshan calmed his heart and walked into the canyon. He carefully observed the surroundings, wanting to find some traces. However, in this canyon, after searching for a long time, Teng Qingshan did not find any traces of the demonic beast.
"I didn't expect that this demonic beast would escape!" Teng Qingshan was very helpless.
Without a choice, Teng Qingshan chose to go back!
…
However, just as Teng Qingshan jumped off the cliff and landed at the bottom of the canyon, there was a depression on the cliff wall about twenty feet away. The four claws of the demonic beast easily pierced into the rock, and its huge body curled up in this depression.
From the outside, it was impossible to discover that this demonic beast was hiding here.
This demonic beast's cold eyes, with a faint dark red glow, occasionally swept a glance at the canyon below.
This hiding lasted for more than four hours. It was only at the darkest moment of the next day when the canyon was pitch black that the Demonic Beast jumped down like lightning and landed in the canyon. Then, it flew a few times and left the canyon.
*****
In the martial arts field of Jin Jia Village, torches were lit one after another. The warriors were all gathered here.
"What is that monster? It is even stronger than a bison. When I slashed at those dense scales, it hurt my palm instead. "
"That is a demonic beast! Those scales are absolutely invulnerable. I think, even the armor made of materials like Darksteel is far from being comparable to the scales of this demonic beast! "The warriors exclaimed in admiration.
"If we kill that demonic beast, peel off its skin and make a set of scales, haha … that is definitely a treasure."
"Stop dreaming. You want to kill that demonic beast with that little ability of yours?"
The group of Martial Artists seemed to be very excited. For them, being able to see a Monstrous Beast was enough. As for whether or not they could kill the Monstrous Beasts, most ordinary martial artists did not even dare to think about it.
While the martial artists were excited, the people of Jin Jia Village were anxious and helpless.
The patriarch of the Jin clan had an anxious expression on his face. Looking at the group of warriors who were chatting wantonly, he couldn't help but shout, "My lords! I wonder if there is any Lord who has killed that black monster? "He shouted. But the martial artists chatted excitedly with each other, completely ignoring the patriarch.
A man beside the patriarch became anxious and shouted, "You bunch of martial artists! My Jin Jia Village is facing a great disaster! I asked for everyone's help, but all of you can't kill the demonic beasts, yet you're still chatting and laughing here. You still have … "
"Shut up!" The clan leader of the Jin clan hastily shouted.
"Patriarch." The man was so anxious that his eyes turned red.
The entire Jin Jia Village had been tormented by this demonic beast to the point of insanity. Now that the martial artists were still feeling proud of themselves, they naturally felt uncomfortable in their hearts.
"Hey, kid!" A burly man with a red birthmark on his face, carrying a long saber on his back, sneered at the angry man. "What's wrong? Did our brothers' words make you unhappy?" Immediately, the other warriors in his group also looked at the man from Jin Jia Village with a smile that was not a smile.
The man from Jin Jia Village clenched his fists tightly, his expression ugly.
"Motherf * cker, have you all forgotten my fists?" A frivolous voice sounded. "You don't have the ability to kill the demonic beast, yet you dare to bully the ordinary mountain people? What kind of martial artists are you? I think you should just buy a piece of tofu and knock yourself to death! "Duan Hou walked over with a smile.
The few martial artists' faces instantly flushed red. They looked at each other and didn't dare to speak again.
They had personally experienced Duan Hou's strength when they had just arrived at Jin Jia Village.
"Brother Qin Lang!" Duan Hou was suddenly overjoyed and shouted towards the distance.
In the distance, Teng Qingshan had indeed just landed on the training field. Seeing Duan Hou running over, he walked over and said, "Brother Duan!"
"Seeing that Brother Qin Lang has arrived so late, you must have gone to chase after that demonic beast. I wonder if Brother Qin Lang managed to catch it?" Duan Hou asked. As soon as these words came out, a large number of Jin Jia Village clansmen gathered on the training field looked expectantly and nervously at Teng Qingshan.
Being stared at by thousands of people, Teng Qingshan's heart palpitated. From those pairs of eyes that were filled with anticipation, Teng Qingshan could understand how much these Jin Jia Village clansmen wished for the demonic beast to be killed.
"That demonic beast is too cunning! I wasn't able to kill it, "Teng Qingshan shook his head and said.
The thousands of Jin Jia Village clansmen's eyes darkened. They were almost in despair.
"However, that demonic beast was injured by me. With this demonic beast's intelligence, I reckon that it won't dare to come to Jin Jia Village in the near future," Teng Qingshan said again. These words caused the surrounding Jin Jia Village clansmen to reveal expressions of joy.
"My Lord, you said that the demonic beast won't dare to come for the near future?" The Jin Clan Leader ran over.
Duan Hou, who was at the side, said, "Uncle, that demonic beast is as intelligent as a human! This time, it was injured and suffered a loss. It won't dare to come again in the near future! "Duan Hou had seen with his own eyes that the monster had silently cut open the door latch of the residence and sneaked into the house. Such an intelligent monster wouldn't dare to come again the next day after suffering a loss.
"Big Brother, Big Brother!" Suddenly, a figure rushed to Teng Qingshan's side and grabbed onto Teng Qingshan's trousers.
Teng Qingshan looked down and saw that it was a child that looked to be only six or seven years old.
This child raised his head and looked at Teng Qingshan, his eyes filled with tears, "Big Brother, I beg you. You must kill that monster and avenge my parents! I beg you! "
"Second Baby, quickly let go." The Jin Clan Leader hurriedly said. He dragged the child to the side because he was afraid that Teng Qingshan would kill the child out of dissatisfaction. After all … there were inhumane people among the warriors.
"I'm begging you, big brother." The child cried.
The Jin Clan Leader hastily said, "Sir, many of our Jin Jia Village's clansmen have died in the past month. Second Baby's parents were eaten by that monster in one night. Luckily, Second Baby didn't live in the same house with his parents. Otherwise, he would have been eaten that day. "
Teng Qingshan looked at the child and his heart trembled slightly.
In his previous life, he was an orphan!
He lost his parents at such a young age!
"Don't worry!" Duan Hou patted his chest towards the Jin Jia Village clansmen, "We have the advantage in numbers. Today, we didn't have enough people. In the future, there will definitely be more and stronger warriors coming. That demonic beast will definitely die one day." When the Jin Jia Village clansmen heard this, they only felt slightly better.
"Brother Qin Lang, do you know what kind of demonic beast it is?" Duan Hou asked. "I know many demonic beasts, but I don't know this demonic beast."
"I don't know either." Teng Qingshan shook his head and said.
Teng Qingshan had only been in the Gui Yuan Sect for a short period of time, so he hadn't looked for books related to demonic beasts to read.
"Brother Qin Lang, did you discover anything special when you chased after that demonic beast? Maybe you can determine what kind of demonic beast it is. "Duan Hou said.
Teng Qingshan didn't hide anything, "That demonic beast can suddenly turn red all over its body and increase its speed, shaking me off in an instant."
"Turn red all over its body?" Duan Hou was startled, and his eyes immediately lit up.
… …
On the training field, the Tie Yi Hall expert 'Jin Tao' also heard the conversation between Teng Qingshan and Duan Hou. When he heard 'turn red all over its body', Jin Tao's face revealed a hint of ecstasy, "Turn red all over its body? This … could this be the Red Scaled Beast? Yes! According to the records regarding the Red Scaled Beast, when it was young, it was already black in color! When the Red Scaled Beast reaches adulthood and swallows the 'Black Fire Spirit Fruit', its scales will turn red all over its body, and it will grow to a height of three Zhang! "
"Juvenile Red Scaled Beast." Jin Tao thought to himself, "This matter can't be spread, or else it will be difficult to obtain the Black Fire Spirit Fruit."
At this moment — —
"Haha, it's the Red Scaled Beast, it's the Red Scaled Beast!" A loud laugh rang out, and Jin Tao's expression changed drastically. The one laughing was Duan Hou.
"Duan Hou." Jin Tao rushed over and glared at him.
"Why are you glaring at me?" Duan Hou immediately laughed, "Haha, I understand. You want your Tie Yi Hall to monopolize that treasure?"
"Don't say anymore." Jin Tao lowered his voice.
Standing at the side, Teng Qingshan was puzzled and asked, "Brother Duan, what is the Red Scaled Beast that you mentioned?"
Jin Tao immediately glared at Teng Qingshan, but Teng Qingshan ignored him.
Duan Hou smiled and said, "Someone doesn't want me to say, but I will! Brother Qin Lang, this Red Scaled Beast is an extremely powerful demonic beast. It is said that it is over three Zhang tall and five to six Zhang long, looking like a small mountain. Moreover, its entire body is red. Even an Innate Master would find it hard to break through its scales! Furthermore, it can spit out flames that can melt gold and iron! "
Teng Qingshan was shocked when he heard this.
Over three Zhang tall? That was a colossus that was two to three stories tall, and even an Innate Master would find it hard to break through its scales. Spitting out flames that could melt gold and iron? This was indeed a terrifying demonic beast.
Standing at the side, Jin Tao secretly cursed.
However, he was well aware of Duan Hou's strength. He had already been injured while chasing after the Red Scaled Beast, and was definitely not Duan Hou's match. Furthermore, there was a mysterious expert, 'Qin Lang', who could injure the Red Scaled Beast.
"However, that is an adult Red Scaled Beast. In the books, it was recorded that the scales of the Red Scaled Beast were black, but in an emergency, its entire body can turn red. These two sentences were too brief. I didn't think that this was a Red Scaled Beast. Now I know that this is an infant Red Scaled Beast, a Red Scaled Beast that hasn't grown up yet! "Duan Hou explained in detail.
Teng Qingshan didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this.
A demonic beast with such an abnormal defense was actually an infant Red Scaled Beast.
"However, no matter how powerful the Red Scaled Beast is, we still have no way of taming it. What really excites warriors is the spiritual treasure 'Black Fire Spirit Fruit' that is born with the Red Scaled Beast. " Duan Hou's eyes lit up as he continued, "Brother Qin Lang, when the Red Scaled Beast grows up, it can only undergo its final transformation after eating the 'Black Fire Spirit Fruit', shedding its black scales and growing out its scarlet scales! It will become a terrifying demonic beast! We warriors can snatch the Black Fire Spirit Fruit before it does! "
Teng Qingshan's heart skipped a beat.
The Red Scaled Beast had to eat the Black Fire Spirit Fruit to become a demonic beast that even an Innate Master would be afraid of.
What if a person ate it?
