“If they’re not ruthless, they won’t be called demons,” Jiang Hao sneered and said coldly. “But they came at the right time. Hurry up and get rid of this group of beasts so that we can wrap up early!”

Jiang Hao had been holding his frustration for the past few days and had no way to vent. He was so aggrieved.

Now that the Tiger Tribe had led an army to attack, it was a good opportunity for him to vent his anger!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The powerful white wind kept hitting the paG.o.da!

However, the paG.o.da’s restrictions were exquisite and almost indestructible. Even if cultivator masters came, they wouldn’t be able to break through the restrictions in a short time, let alone a few Enlightening Stage beasts.

Therefore, after attacking for a while, the beasts who had launched a sneak attack seemed to understand that they couldn’t do anything to the paG.o.da. They simply dispersed the wind and revealed themselves.

In an instant, five ferocious tiger demons standing upright like humans with wings on their backs appeared in the sky.

With the paG.o.da as the center, countless spiritual beasts appeared in the surrounding mountains. They covered the entire mountain, and there were no less than a thousand of them.

Even though they knew that they were safe in the paG.o.da, many disciples still turned slightly pale when they saw the shocking number of spiritual beasts in front of them. They looked scared.

“Human cultivators, what’s the point of hiding? Do you dare to come out and fight me?”

A deep voice resounded in the sky like rolling thunder.

The one who spoke was the tallest of the five tiger demons.

He was nearly four meters tall, with golden eyes and protruding lips. There were stripes on his head, and his chest and abdomen were broad. He held a huge battle-ax in both hands. His body was extremely majestic and mighty, and his expression carried a look of superiority.

The arrogant words of the tiger demon made many disciples rather angry.

Jiang Hao suddenly stood up and said to Xie Jingsheng in a deep voice,

“Senior Brother Xie, the demons are so arrogant. If we don’t teach them a lesson, won’t the Nine Suns Sect’s reputation be tarnished? Since they want to fight, we might as well fulfill their wish!”

Without waiting for Xie Jingsheng to respond, he rushed out of the tower impatiently.

Xie Jingsheng shook his head slightly but didn’t stop him.

Although the paG.o.da was impregnable, it didn’t have the ability to attack.

If they stayed in the paG.o.da, they wouldn’t be afraid of the Tiger Tribe, but at the same time, they wouldn’t be able to complete the mission of clearing the obstacles for the sect.

Therefore, a battle with the Tiger Tribe was inevitable.

If they could kill one or two Enlightening Stage spirit tigers before the battle, they would suffer fewer losses later.

This was also why Xie Jingsheng didn’t stop Jiang Hao.

After jumping out of the paG.o.da, Jiang Hao suddenly lit up with a faint green light. He instantly became as light as a feather as he floated in the sky without any support.

Clang!

Jiang Hao drew the sword at his waist and looked around with his head held high. A trace of arrogance and contempt appeared on his face as he said coldly, “Bloodthirsty b.a.s.t.a.r.d, who wants to fight me?”

Upon hearing this, the four tiger demons in the air were instantly enraged as they cursed.

One of them was a burly tiger demon. His fur was bright yellow with pitch-black stripes, but his forehead was snow-white. He jumped out and shouted evilly, “Arrogant human brat, I’ll take you on!”

Without waiting for Jiang Hao to respond, he swung his axes murderously.

Jiang Hao wasn’t intimidated. He sneered and raised his sword to meet the attack.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle in the air.

On the paG.o.da’s martial arts arena, a group of disciples from the lower house held their breaths and stared fixedly at the battle in the sky.

This was the first time most of them had seen a Bright Aperture Stage cultivator fight against an Enlightening Stage beast. Naturally, they couldn’t bear to miss any scene.

Lin Shen was no exception. He watched the battle outside the paG.o.da with rapt attention.

The black-striped tiger demon was extremely strong. As he brandished his axes, they whistled in the wind. Thunderous roars rang out endlessly. Just looking at him made one shudder from the bottom of their hearts!

If he were to fight a Long Breath Stage cultivator, the latter’s flesh would probably be sc.r.a.ped off!

However, such a fierce wind had no effect on Jiang Hao. Before it could touch him, it would be destroyed by the sharp sword light and dissipate into nothingness.

After several exchanges, not only didn’t the black-spotted tiger demon gain the upper hand, but he was also stabbed by the sword beams that were as fast as lightning several times. A few b.l.o.o.d.y wounds immediately appeared on its body.

This minor injury was nothing to the thick-skinned black-spotted tiger demon, but it completely aroused his ferocity.

“ROAR!”

The black-spotted tiger demon roared angrily at the sky. Suddenly, the two axes clashed fiercely. Accompanied by the deafening sound of metal clashing, a sinister green wind suddenly appeared between the two axes. It wrapped around the surface of the axes like a poisonous snake!

The next moment, the black-spotted tiger demon pounced at Jiang Hao and struck down at him with the axes.

The wind howled again, but this time, it was accompanied by a miserable wail.

The disciple on the paG.o.da felt their heads spinning when they heard that. They were almost in a trance-like state, and they paled in unison.

However, Jiang Hao, who was facing this attack head-on, didn’t panic at all. Instead, he laughed and swung his sword forward.

It was just an ordinary strike, but when it was thrust out, a red light suddenly blazed. It was as if three suns had appeared out of thin air. Carrying extremely scorching flames, they swept toward the black-spotted tiger demon.

Xie Jingsheng and Mu Chuanhua’s eyes lit up when they saw this.

“Three suns at once!” Mu Chuanhua exclaimed. “Junior Brother Jiang’s Nine Divine Sun Sword has reached another level!”

As soon as he said this, some disciples from the lower house couldn’t help but ask in confusion,

“Senior Brother Mu, is Senior Brother Jiang using the Nine Divine Sun Sword? I’ve also cultivated this sword technique, and I’ve already attained Mastery, but it’s far from being as impressive as this!”

Many Heaven-rank disciples nodded.

Nine Divine Sun Sword could be exchanged in the Merit Hall.

Many disciples who cultivated the Supreme Yang Swordplay would switch to the more powerful Nine Divine Sun Sword after their cultivation level increased.

There were 50 Heaven-rank disciples in the Nine Yang Academy’s lower house, and at least ten of them cultivated the Nine Divine Sun Sword. However, no matter what stage they were in, they would definitely not be able to display the same shocking might as Jiang Hao!

Mu Chuanhua laughed when he heard this. He didn’t mind his Junior Brothers’ doubts and explained patiently,

“There’s no harm in telling you. This involves the difference between the Bright Aperture Stage and the Long Breath Stage.

“After a cultivator advances to the Bright Aperture Stage, their physical strength and spiritual essence won’t exceed the Long Breath Stage by much. The key is that their soul will be nourished by spiritual essence and grow rapidly, gradually producing spirit resonance. This spirit resonance is the most important difference between the two stages.

“With spirit resonance, Bright Aperture Stage cultivators can use spirit supplement like cinnabar and peach wood to create effects such as summoning wind and rain. In other words, they can cast spells!

“Other than that, after gaining spirit resonance, cultivators will undergo earth-shattering changes in martial techniques. Their understanding and comprehension of martial techniques will become easier. On the surface, it’ll look like the cultivation speed of martial techniques will increase greatly. As long as there’s enough time, they can reach Perfection in any martial technique!”

This was the first time many disciples of the lower house had heard of such a secret. They couldn’t help but feel surprised, and yearning looks appeared on their faces.

They all knew how difficult it was to cultivate martial techniques.

It wasn’t easy to cultivate a martial technique to Mastery, let alone Perfection.

Reaching Perfection was something that could only be chanced upon by luck. Talent and opportunities were indispensable either.

Without that most crucial epiphany, they would never be able to reach Perfection!

According to Mu Chuanhua, this problem didn’t exist with Bright Aperture Stage cultivators. As long as they were willing to put in the effort, it was only a matter of time before they cultivated their martial techniques to Perfection. How could they not be envious?

However, Mu Chuanhua’s subsequent words shocked them again.

“However, Perfection isn’t the end. Bright Aperture Stage cultivators with outstanding talent can reach beyond Perfection and let the martial techniques reach a new level. Martial techniques of that stage are no less powerful than spells!”

The disciples were dumbfounded. They didn’t expect there to be a higher stage after Perfection.

A disciple swallowed and couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Senior Brother Mu, what stage is that?”

Mu Chuanhua smiled and said,

“It’s called Path!”
