Absolute Strengthening Technique 40 Blood Jade Giant Tiger

The famous landmarks such as Skysword Mountain was occupied by the Skysword Sect, the Star Moon Lake had the Star Moon Sect, the Incense Valley had the Incense Valley Sect, the Joyous Forest had the Joyous Forest Sect…

There weren't any other cultivation sects in the Thousand Buddha Cave but it was considered a holy land in Cang Lang Country. There were many that ventured into the cave, hoping for a bit of the Buddha Qi to rub off on them. It was rumored that the Buddha Qi was able to ward off evil and illness, strengthen one's body, and even lengthen one's lifespan!

Shen naturally didn't believe the rumors. Then again, there would be no smoke without fire, so perhaps the people were under the placebo effect.

The Black Dragon Horse ran as fast as the wind and was light-footed. The streets in Cang Lang City were made up of precious "bronze rocks", making the gaiting sounds of the Black Dragon Horses galloping on it very clear.

The Thousand Buddha Cave was located on the Cang Lang Mountain. Cang Lang Mountain was the longest mountain range in the entire Cang Lang Country. Its shape could be compared to a serpent, twisting and turning, and it separated Cang Lang Country into two. It only took about two and half-day's worth of travel from Skysword Sect and could be traversed by horses. However, he had to cut across a huge canyon before he would reach there.

The journey so far was rather uneventful. During the whole time, Kitty sat on top of his head refusing to enter inside the realm. Neither, occupying any other s.p.a.ce.

Shen defeatedly let her sit there, on top of his head. If she is not outside the realm, she could hardly detect any presence of treasure. He might walk by a treasure without even knowing it.

His main plan to visit Thousand Buddha Grottoes was the Big Dipper Sword and the cave of 'divine deities'.

Noon had already arrived, and the streets were full of horse and beast carriages. There were some that carried luxurious goods, and others that moved extremely slowly. Shen gazed at the busy crowd while checking for anything that Kitty took fancy off.

After taking the mountain path, Shen kept watch on his surroundings. It was a shortcut to the Thousand Buddha Cave, at the same time most dangerous path.

As expected, a terrified neighing sound from the horse rang out, taking Shen's focus in front of him. It was a Blood Jade Giant Tiger.

This tiger's body was blood-red, with a length of seven meters and a height of about four meters. Its limbs were stout and muscular and had a sweeping five-meter-long tail as tough as steel.

Shen contemplated about the gigantic beast before him. Its blood-red fur looked extremely beautiful, but the powerful aura he knew it was a peak Xiantian grade demonic beast.

For the current him, it was too easy to fight. But he remembered about Kawa's slow growth. One of the possible reason for her slow growth can be lack of fight.

While he immersed himself in his thought, the tiger didn't stay still and ferociously plunged on him.

"Tsk, you are seeking death." Shen sounded annoyed as the horse started going berserk.

Holding the rein in his left hand, he took a sword in his right one. Without delay, he swung it toward the approaching tiger's neck.

Shiiik

The horse flailed causing Shen to miss but the sword successfully connected to the tiger's leg joint, causing a gaping wound to appear. Blood started rushing out of the tiger's right leg.

"Kawa, take care of the tiger," Shen ordered as summoned Kawa with a wave of his hand. He noticed the little hesitance in Kawa, "Just take care of it. It's already injured."

What's the main weapon of tigers? It's their front leg/paw and sharp fangs. It can't attack with its right paw and it won't be able to muster enough strength on his left paw.

Now the only method remained to the tiger is its fangs. But to utilize fangs, the tiger needs speed which it doesn't have. Because of its injured legs.

It didn't mean the tiger was harmless. In the end, it was still a peak Xiantian grade Demonic Beast.

"Kitty, go and help Kawa," Shen said to the cat on top of his head. Seemingly unaffected by the surroundings.

"Eh, I don't have enough power to fight with that guy." Kitty expressed unwavering laziness in her voice.

Shen grabbed the cat by its neck and threw it toward the tiger, "Just distract it. If you can't move faster than that big cat, you will shame the Treasure Race!"

As if throwing her was completely natural, she gracefully landed in front of the tiger.

The tiger was surprised by the sudden appearance of the seemingly tiny creature.

Did this creature not know that he is the king of this forest? First, he will kill that weak wolf. And then make a hundred pieces of that hateable human! How dare this insignificant creature blocks his path!

The tiger swatted the tiny creature with its sharp claws. The tiger didn't feel anything on his palm, it must be because the creature was really small.

Just after the tiger took a step toward the wolf, it felt something on top of his head.

An insignificant creature actually stood on top of its head.

Just as the tiger as about to teach this tiny creature a lesson, a sharp pain a.s.saulted its throat.

Kawa took advantage of his distractions to attack the tiger. Directly plunging its fangs on the tiger's neck.

Kawa attacked from the tiger's left side. While the right paw of the tiger was rendered useless. The tiger roared in pain, as it tried its best to get away from that d.a.m.nable wolf. But Kawa didn't give it any chance to counter-attack.

Desperate, the tiger used its brute strength to sank its fang on the wolf's back.

The sharp pain caused Kawa to loosen its fangs, letting the tiger escape.

The tiger didn't spare any single moment to run back. It lived for more than a thousand years, it was rather intelligent. And knew, it has no chance of winning right now.

"You are intelligent but it's useless."

That was the thing the Blood Jade Giant Tiger, King of the Cang Lang Mountain heard before falling.

"Maybe, I should make some Tiger Bone Liquor?" Shen took out the sword from the tiger's head as he murmured. Kitty already on top of his head, without minding the dust on her paws.

"Kawa, it was a nice move. You lacked in strength or else you could achieve a perfect victory. Here take this pill."

Kawa matched with Kitty's distraction perfectly, as its also the best move from Shen's perspective. He gave her a healing pill. It was something he received from Huan Jing's interspatial Sachet.

"And Kitty, you could have poked out the tiger's eyes."

"Eh, that's disgusting. Why would you even say something like that?" as always Kawa lazily replied through their connection.

"..."
