Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

Just as Chu Yunfan finally completed his breakthrough and was preparing to head to the Lin family, some of the cultivators who had come after hearing the news, as well as the second-tier demonic beasts, the closest of whom had arrived near Chu Yunfan, approached him from all directions, giving him a feeling of being ambushed from all sides.

After Chu Yunfan broke through to the Martial Master realm, all of his senses, including sight, hearing, and smell, underwent a significant improvement.

Therefore, he sensed the movement of these cultivators and demonic beasts as soon as they approached within a few hundred meters of him.

Then, Chu Yunfan used his Xuan Ying Eye to scan the surrounding area, taking in all the details.

"Five early-stage Martial Masters, five mid-stage Martial Masters, and a dozen or so second-tier demonic beasts."

It seems like they're coming for me?

Chu Yunfan narrowed his eyes, not quite understanding what was going on.

It's one thing for those cultivators to act together.

However, the second-tier monsters in other directions were clearly not quite right.

Normally, when monsters meet, they will fight each other.

But now, Chu Yunfan clearly saw that the demonic beasts had no intention of fighting each other; instead, they were all moving closer to his location.

However, before Chu Yunfan could react, the dozen or so demonic beasts had already charged towards him.

One of the giant tigers, a late-stage second-tier tiger with piercing eyes and a white forehead, was the fastest. It arrived in front of Chu Yunfan in the blink of an eye, its gaping maw, larger than Chu Yunfan's body, already open, its sharp fangs gleaming with a bloodthirsty light.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan did not hesitate and thrust his sword forward, aiming it at the giant tiger's forehead.

"What? The defense is that strong!"

Chu Yunfan's eyes widened in surprise, then he drew his sword and retreated.

You should know that what he was holding was a genuine low-grade spiritual weapon longsword. Unexpectedly, the sword strike just now only pierced a small bloody gash on the giant tiger's forehead and failed to penetrate it completely.

Of course, this is also why Chu Yunfan has just broken through to the Martial Master realm and is not yet used to attacking with spiritual power.

Just now, he was only subconsciously using the power of his body.

The giant tiger, enraged by the injury, gave Chu Yunfan no time to react. Its forepaws, thicker than Chu Yunfan's thigh, swung their sharp claws at Chu Yunfan's face.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan instinctively swung his sword to block.

Unexpectedly, the giant tiger's claws were even harder than its forehead. When they collided with the magical sword in its hand, a crisp "clang" was heard, and the tiger was not damaged in the slightest.

Moreover, the giant tiger was stronger than Chu Yunfan. With one claw, it knocked Chu Yunfan's sword aside, and then its other front paw came at Chu Yunfan's face.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan stretched out his left hand and used an Eagle Claw technique to block the giant tiger's claw.

However, due to the difference in strength, Chu Yunfan still had to take a step back under the giant tiger's attack.

"As expected of the king of beasts, his strength is formidable!"

As Chu Yunfan retreated, he continued to familiarize himself with the power within his body.

Indeed, Chu Yunfan was fighting the giant tiger while familiarizing himself with the circulation of spiritual energy within his body.

As the giant tiger pounced on him again, spiritual energy began to gather on the longsword in his hand.

With the support of spiritual power, Chu Yunfan's attacks began to be enhanced in all aspects, becoming faster, more powerful, and more agile.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Yunfan had turned the tables and was now pressing the giant tiger's attack.

Before long, the giant tiger had many bloody marks on its body.

Of course, given Chu Yunfan's true strength, he could have killed this giant tiger long ago.

However, he was using this giant tiger as practice to familiarize himself with the power within his body, so he deliberately suppressed his own strength.

Of course, there was another reason for doing this: there were people watching nearby, and he didn't want to reveal his true strength.

Even so, when they saw that Chu Yunfan was able to suppress the giant tiger demon beast at the late stage of the second tier and always had the upper hand, some of the human cultivators who were watching from the sidelines had already begun to have second thoughts.

Even if there were treasures here originally, they have probably already been taken away by Chu Yunfan.

Given Chu Yunfan's current strength, they have no chance of seizing it.

However, a few people still held onto a sliver of hope.

"With the strength of this giant tiger beast, it can deplete a lot of this person's power."

Moreover, there were more than a dozen second-tier demonic beasts behind them, but they were only intimidated by the giant tiger demonic beast and did not make a move.

Once the giant tiger monster is defeated, they will swarm in.

That will be my chance!

The remaining few people exchanged glances, seemingly having reached some kind of tacit understanding, and simultaneously hid in the nearby woods, silently watching the fight unfold.

And the facts were just as they had guessed.

Soon, the giant tiger was covered in wounds and blood under Chu Yunfan's sword.

Seeing that it was no match for the tiger, it turned around and tried to run away.

However, there's no such thing as being able to fight whenever you want and run away when you can't win.

Just as the giant tiger turned to flee, Chu Yunfan slightly moved his toes and swiftly rushed forward. Then, with lightning speed, he drew his sword and pierced the giant tiger's anus.

This is the weakest point in the giant tiger monster's defenses.

In an instant, the chrysanthemums withered, and his buttocks were covered in wounds.

The giant tiger let out a miserable cry.

However, before the giant tiger could react, Chu Yunfan's spiritual power entered the tiger's body through the longsword and then quickly erupted, shredding all of the tiger's internal organs.

Severely injured, the giant tiger beast let out a mournful howl, and its massive body collapsed to the ground, convulsing uncontrollably.

The dozen or so second-tier demonic beasts watching from the sidelines, upon seeing the giant tiger demonic beast die, did not swarm forward as others had predicted.

Instead, fear showed in their eyes, and they began to back away.

However, monsters are not as intelligent as humans.

After a moment, the primal instinct to kill prevailed over that trace of fear.

Instantly, more than a dozen second-tier demonic beasts charged towards Chu Yunfan.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan was not afraid at all; instead, a smile appeared on his face.

"I didn't get enough of a fight earlier, so I'll use you guys as practice targets!"

Chu Yunfan muttered to himself. He had just broken through to the Martial Master realm, and his strength had greatly increased. He was in high spirits and naturally needed to vent his frustrations.

As soon as he finished speaking, he charged towards the dozen or so demonic beasts.

The agility of his serpentine steps, combined with the boost to his speed from spiritual energy, allowed Chu Yunfan to move like a phantom among the dozen or so demonic beasts, launching attacks continuously.

These demonic beasts were not as fast as Chu Yunfan, and before they could react, they had already been struck by Chu Yunfan's sword.

At this moment, it appears that Chu Yunfan is surrounded by demonic beasts.

But in reality, Chu Yunfan had already surrounded these dozen or so demonic beasts all by himself.

This scene startled the dozen or so people watching from the shadows. They stared in disbelief, then rubbed their eyes hard, wondering if there was something wrong with their vision.

However, by the time they rubbed their eyes and could see clearly...

The demonic beasts opposite were dying one after another under Chu Yunfan's sword.

Then, Chu Yunfan turned around, his murderous eyes meeting theirs.
