Walking and stopping along the way, leaving behind a few messy spots;
Ahead, a crossroads finally appeared, and the man and the tiger were about to part ways;
In front of the canyon, they split into two paths, with Ye Qiu climbing the wall and the tiger entering.
As they neared the canyon entrance, Ye Qiu jumped off his mount and, using the small trees and bushes on the canyon's rock walls, climbed higher.
Meanwhile, the tiger acted as bait, continuing deeper into the canyon to lure the Giant Anaconda into the trap!
Reading Sun Tzu's Art of War, experiencing Gao Qiqiang's life!
The plan was simple, but effective.
Standing high above, Ye Qiu watched the Giant Anaconda, which had fully entered the canyon below, a look of joy already on his face.
He immediately lit the fuse next to him with the tinder in his hand.
Boom! A loud bang startled the Giant Anaconda, which was in pursuit. It stopped, turned its head, and saw that its path was buried by falling rubble from both sides.
"Hiss hiss~" Its instincts told it that something was wrong! It immediately tried to slip out through the other exit of the canyon.
Unfortunately, it was fast, but Ye Qiu was faster, and the fuse burned even quicker!
Boom!
Another loud bang, and the other side was also blown up.
The Giant Anaconda's movements stopped where it was, a pile of high rubble separating it from the little tiger.
Now this Giant Anaconda had become a trapped beast!
"It seems the plan is going smoothly. Now, only the final blow is needed! Please don't die!"
Ye Qiu held the tinder in his hand; his goal was not to blow it to death, but to put it into a dying state!
Noticing that the Giant Anaconda was actually trying to climb over the rubble, he no longer hesitated.
He immediately lit all the fuses of the explosives buried underground.
"Hiss~" The Giant Anaconda smelled death, and its writhing body became somewhat chaotic.
"Boom!" A loud bang, even with the rock walls on both sides as a barrier, the sound still traveled far, startling a flock of birds, and the surrounding Spirit Beasts scattered and fled.
Even the tiger was trembling, if it hadn't been controlled by Ye Qiu's illusion, it would have run away long ago!
Ye Qiu's ears were ringing, but he dared not delay, fearing that the Thousand Year Giant Anaconda would die. As long as it had a few breaths left, it would be fine. Ye Qiu did not want to work in vain; all the explosives had been used!
Arriving at the bottom of the canyon, the Giant Anaconda was already buried in the rubble, out of sight. The red in Ye Qiu's eyes flashed with purple, and only then did he see its exact location.
He called out to the tiger, and together they used their claws to dig it out.
"Holy crap!" Ye Qiu, still digging, was suddenly startled as a bloody snake head appeared before him.
One eye had been pierced by the flying rubble, and its scales were scattered, a truly miserable sight!
Fortunately, it was still breathing!
The Giant Anaconda stared fiercely at Ye Qiu with its sole remaining eye, trying to lift its mouth with all its might, but it was already powerless.
"Hiss~" Its blood-stained tongue was its last flick.
Ye Qiu also had compassion, but this World was just like this, the rules were so. Spirit Beasts cultivate for thousands of years, only to be surpassed by humans in a few years. This was the tragedy of Spirit Beasts!
"Next, I hope it works!" The Sharingan and the Giant Anaconda stared at each other. Ye Qiu wanted to control it to sacrifice itself to him!
The dying Giant Anaconda was already mentally disoriented, making it easy to control. Its only eye transformed into Ye Qiu's shape.
After giving the command to sacrifice, there was no movement on the Giant Anaconda's body. Just as Ye Qiu showed a disappointed expression,
A faint purple light suddenly emanated from its body, then spread to Ye Qiu's body.
"Haha… This is great, it really works! A purple First spirit ring!"
First, he shouted with excitement, then he suppressed his joy.
After giving the tiger next to him the will to guard, he directly sat cross-legged on the Giant Anaconda's head.
He circulated the Mysterious Heaven Skill, rapidly absorbing the energy transmitted by the Giant Anaconda's sacrifice. The purple light continuously flowed into Ye Qiu's body.
The tiger surveyed its surroundings, wary of the appearance of other humans or Spirit Beasts.
A sturdy figure slowly climbed up the canyon, its bell-like eyes filled with brutality, hatred, and a hint of fear.
...
Nuoding City, carving workshop.
Xiao Wu had already arrived here, barging in recklessly.
Bang! The shop door slammed loudly, nearly causing the carving knife in Jerry's hand to slip.
"I say, why are you such a rude wild girl?"
Before Jerry could speak, Grandma Tom, who was sitting next to him fanning him, started scolding Xiao Wu first.
This time, Xiao Wu did not argue with the old woman. She just had a mournful face, "Have you seen Xiao Qiu? I… I can't find him!"
Her eyes were red and swollen, and her voice was choked with tears.
Grandma Tom was also startled by the words. Having experienced much, she roughly knew what was going on. It was probably that boy Ye Qiu doing something without telling the little girl.
"He said he was going hunting for Spirit Beasts a few days ago, but he hasn't returned after all these days," Xiao Wu said, starting to wipe away tears.
"Sigh~" Grandma Tom sighed. Being a Spirit Master was not that easy.
"We old folks did see him two days ago. He even slept here for one night," Jerry told Xiao Wu truthfully, not hiding anything.
"Really!? Then where is he now? Please tell me."
Facing her hopeful gaze, Jerry shook his head and turned his gaze to his old wife.
"He left a letter, saying that if he didn't return within three days, I should give the letter to you!" Grandma Tom said.
"Where's the letter? Let me see it quickly," Xiao Wu reached out her hands and tugged at her sleeve.
But Grandma Tom just shook her head, "Now, the letter cannot be shown to you! It's best to wait for him to come back and tell you in person~ You have to believe him!"
...
After pleading in vain, Xiao Wu left alone, praying in her heart that Ye Qiu would return to her side tomorrow.
Grandma Tom was right. She didn't need that kind of letter!
She wanted Ye Qiu to come back and tell her in person. Hmm… and he would have to hold her then.
As she thought, her face was already covered in tears.
Far away in the Hunting Soul Forest, the Giant Anaconda's sacrifice was nearing its end. Its corpse had lost its luster, and the purple light on Ye Qiu's body gradually disappeared.
A purple spirit ring condensed and slowly rose beneath Ye Qiu.
His spirit power also slowly rose: eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth… until it slowly stopped at seventeenth level, thanks to the accumulation of spirit power in the past and the Giant Anaconda's sacrifice, he advanced seven levels!
Ye Qiu slowly curled his lips, savoring the pleasure of his body being filled with spirit power.
Click. A slight sound appeared above the canyon.
Swish! A sturdy dark shadow enveloped him, overlapping Ye Qiu's position.
Yet, the smile on Ye Qiu's face remained.
Because of the loud bang just now, the Brutal Ape King, who had already left, had not forgotten the pain of the front and back attacks on his lower body, which led to this sneak attack from the sky.
Ye Qiu quickly raised his head, his eyes slowly opening, a line of blood tracing from the corner of his eye.
He stared directly at the falling Ape King, the three tomoe in his eyes gathered together, and when they spread out again, they had become a beautiful six-pointed star shape.
Boom! A loud explosion.
Its attack, which should have landed squarely on Ye Qiu…
Actually passed through him, hitting the ground beside him, and the air current it stirred up even knocked over the tiger next to him.
