Chapter 286: Chapter 279: One Person, One Spear, One Bird, One Tiger
This battle lasted for nearly a full hour.
Just then, a one-star demonic beast—a yellow weasel demon—leapt out.
It launched a swift sneak attack on Lin Yi.
But Lin Yi had already detected it. Just as the yellow weasel demon crept near, ready to strike...
...his spear shot out like a hidden flood dragon.
PSHH—
With a single thrust, he ran the yellow weasel demon straight through.
As he withdrew his spear, Lin Yi’s eyes were already crimson, bloodshot from the slaughter.
He whipped his head around to glare at the surrounding demonic beasts.
Then, he charged back into the fray...
「An hour and a half later.」
Back in the inner chamber, Lin Yi and Xiaoqi were once again ejected.
Lin Yi opened his eyes. He was back.
There was no bitter smile, no fear, and no self-deprecation.
After two battles against the beast tides, Lin Yi found that his mind had been significantly strengthened.
Even Xiaoqi had become an adept fighter, its unyielding posture showing it was eager to go back in.
[Current Realm: Tier Four, Star Five]
[Qi and Blood: 88.19%]
"I’m about to break through to the Six-Star Realm?"
Lin Yi stared at his realm in astonishment.
He hadn’t expected that inside the Blood Prison Map, he could not only strengthen his mind but also significantly increase his Qi and Blood.
Before he came to Dragon Tiger Mountain, his realm had just reached Tier Three, Star Five.
His Qi and Blood was only at 22%. He never imagined that after just two trips into the Blood Prison Map, his realm would advance by leaps and bounds. He had jumped an entire tier and was now on the verge of breaking through to the Six-Star Realm.
This terrifying rate of cultivation was enough to frighten even Lin Yi himself.
By the time he returned to school, he would have already reached the Six-Star Realm.
If Wei Nan and Zhou Qi found out, what kind of expressions would they have? Lin Yi couldn’t even begin to imagine.
"I have to keep going!"
Lin Yi raised his head and gazed at the Blood Prison Map.
Far from making him timid, the horde of demonic beasts had instead ignited his desire to conquer.
He had to slaughter all those demonic beasts, or subjugate them.
It was just as Senior Brother Zhong Yan had said: if once wasn’t enough, then try twice. Or three times, five, ten, even a hundred times. Even if he could never kill all the demonic beasts in the end...
...the repeated battles would still allow Lin Yi to strengthen his mind and raise his realm.
He would just treat it as a form of training.
’We could call the White Tiger here...’
Suddenly, a thought from Xiaoqi entered his mind.
Lin Yi glanced back at it.
’That’s right! If I can bring the White Tiger here with my mind, I’ll have another helper. Maybe it can get stronger, too.’
At this thought, Lin Yi nodded.
Activating the Visualization Heart Returning Technique once more, the scene around him changed, and he arrived once more in that blood-red prison.
Simultaneously, he quickly used his mind to try and contact the White Tiger.
A moment later, a smile spread across Lin Yi’s face.
Then, a rift seemed to tear open in the void.
Starlight twinkled from within, and the White Tiger charged out through the opening.
The moment it arrived, it glanced around, its gaze still somewhat dazed.
That is, until it saw Lin Yi and Xiaoqi.
Like a pet that hadn’t seen its master in a long time, it lunged for Lin Yi.
The White Tiger was no longer a cute little cub.
It had long since grown into a magnificent, striped beast.
It was over two meters long, with a massive maw that could swallow Lin Yi’s head whole.
If a behemoth like that truly pounced on Lin Yi, the weight alone would crush him to death.
Lin Yi quickly dodged to the side, evading the White Tiger’s pounce.
Just as the White Tiger was looking a little crestfallen, Lin Yi walked up and hugged its head.
"I brought you here for an all-you-can-eat buffet. You can eat your fill in a moment, as much as you want!"
Hearing this, the White Tiger gave Lin Yi a confused look.
It didn’t seem to understand what Lin Yi meant.
But in the next moment, the ground began to tremble again.
The White Tiger stared warily into the distance.
Black dots began to appear on the horizon, one after another.
Lin Yi grinned. "The buffet is here!"
With a single leap, he mounted the White Tiger’s back.
Wielding the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear, he pointed forward.
"Kill..."
AWOO—
SCREE—
The White Tiger and Xiaoqi let out a fierce roar and a sharp cry, respectively.
They took the initiative, charging toward the distant demonic beasts.
Soon, the two sides clashed.
Before them, the enormous White Tiger was like a primordial behemoth.
It leaped directly into the horde of demonic beasts.
A single swipe of its massive paws sent more than a dozen demonic beasts flying to their deaths.
A sweep of its tail took out dozens more.
With just a few swipes of its claws, nearly a hundred demonic beasts had met a violent end.
Meanwhile, Lin Yi, perched atop the White Tiger’s head, was far from idle.
With the White Tiger as his mount, the long spear in his hands became even more effective.
The tip of his spear became a blur of countless afterimages.
He stabbed down at the demonic beasts below.
Every thrust found its mark, reaping the lives of countless demonic beasts.
With a single sweeping motion, he cut down swathes of demonic beasts.
The White Tiger leaped, breaking out of the encirclement.
It opened its massive maw and snatched up several demonic beasts, its powerful jaws instantly tearing them in half.
The White Tiger chewed a few times, and a blood-red glint flashed in its eyes, as if it had tasted a rare delicacy.
Previously, it had been confined to the Star River domain.
There was no food there, so it could only wait to get a taste of the minds Lin Yi dragged inside.
Now, here, ’food’ was everywhere. It was truly like an all-you-can-eat buffet.
