Primordial Cultivator

Chapter 103: Hellflame Tiger

Slash!

“Huff, I finally understand why Elder Jing hated this trial more than anything,” Yang Wei said as he wiped some sweat off of his forehead after killing another magical beast.

They have been here for over 4 hours already and the magical beasts continued to spawn more and more without pausing.

Worse, the magical beasts are getting stronger and tougher. In addition, hitting their weak spot no longer guarantees a one-shot kill.

“Ugh, this is so annoying.” Elder Jing complained as she kicked a magical beast to pull her sword out from its body.

Afterward, she stared at the front with a gloomy expression. “These magical beasts… when will you ever stop spawning.”

“How long did it last when you did the trial previously?” Yang Wei leaped toward Elder Jing and asked.

Elder Jing smiled bitterly as she raised her hand and showed her five fingers at him.

“F-Five hours?” Yang Wei said.

Elder Jing shook her head and said, “Five whole days and no break time at all. It’s even worse than refining a pill all day in a room because this trial is draining our true qi and stamina as we continue to go on.”

Yang Wei twitched his brows slightly when they could be stuck here for five whole days without stopping.

‘J-Just how did Elder Jing manage to pass the trial?’ Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly as he held a disbelief look.

Elder Jing narrowed her eyes when she could feel his suspicions.

“Do you think I’m joking?” Elder Jing asked.

Yang Wei quickly shook his head and hurriedly changed the topic as he raised his finger and pointed at the Eastside.

“Elder Jing, there are more magical beasts coming from there,” Yang Wei shouted as he held the hilt of his sword tightly before running away from Elder Jing to fight the magical beasts.

Elder Jing chuckled softly when she watched his back. ‘Am I really that scary?’

Elder Jing smiles briefly as she chases after Yang Wei to help him clear out the magical beasts.

Sometime later, Yang Wei and Elder Jing managed to kill all of the magical beasts before holding a dumbfounded expression.

“T-The magical beasts… they stopped spawning.” Yang Wei stuttered as he wondered what’s going on.

Meanwhile, Elder Jing knew the trial wasn’t over yet because the environment is still active and should have returned to normal if the trial was truly over.

Hence, Elder Jing tilted her head to look at Yang Wei.

“It’s not over yet Yang Wei, don’t let your guard down.” Elder Jing warned him.

Yang Wei nodded his head as he showed a solemn expression and glanced around to look for an enemy.

Shortly after, the ground started to tremble hard and a loud roar could be heard from afar.

“Not good…” Elder Jing held a solemn expression as she clenched her fist.

“What kind of magical beast is this?” Yang Wei said slowly and continued.

“I can feel my body trembling just from a roar and there’s a dreadful aura in front of us.”

The new magical beast was completely different from the ones that kept spawning. This one has an immense murderous aura that even the atmosphere seemed to be clustered up and the air is compressed, making it hard for Yang Wei to breathe.

Elder Jing wasn’t much better off because of her cultivation being restricted and she knew exactly what kind of magical beast that just spawned.

“The rest of the magical beasts stopped spawning because they will only burn into a crisp with this beast appearing now.” Elder Jing smiled bitterly at this difficult trial where Senior Zhong Guowei was not exaggerating.

Yang Wei felt his heart compressing with Elder Jing’s serious tone at their current situation.

“What is this magical beast, Elder Jing?” Yang Wei asked again.

Elder Jing was too distracted to not hear Yang Wei’s question for the first time but heard it the second time.

Turning her head to stare at him, Elder Jing sighed, “It’s a magical beast in the Nascent Soul realm and is infamous for its flame power that could even burn this entire place down.”

“It’s a Hellflame Tiger and based on the roar we heard, I can deduct its cultivation to be between the 4th and 6th Nascent Soul realm.”

Yang Wei paled when he realized they must fight this kind of magical beast while only being in the 5th Qi Condensation realm.

The Hellflame Tiger was 4 cultivation realm higher than they are and the beast is not a small fry that could be slain easily.

“Isn’t Senior Zhong Guowei going overboard by making us fight this Hellflame Tiger?” Yang Wei shouted in anger.

Although Senior Zhong Guowei was much stronger than them, Yang Wei still felt hateful about his conduct that completely disregarded their safety.

“We could die to the Hellflame Tiger without being able to resist,” Yang Wei complained, causing Elder Jing to raise her eyebrow in surprise.

“What do you mean we could die?” Elder Jing asked him.

Yang Wei held a dumbfounded look at Elder Jing. “We are at a disadvantage in this trial and the chances are high for us to die.”

Yang Wei was confused at what Elder Jing is trying to say since they only have one life.

Elder Jing started laughing when she saw his serious expression. “Hahaha… Yang Wei, did I forget to say that when the trial started, our projection was transmitted here while our original body was still standing on the array.”

“This means that even if we somehow die in this trial, our conscience would return to our original body without any injuries.”

Yang Wei twitched his mouth slightly at this revelation. He has been extremely cautious this entire time to make sure he doesn’t sustain any critical injuries whereas Elder Jing simply went on a rampage without care.

He thought Elder Jing was capable of recovering quickly but never did he expect the reason for her barbaric manner to be this.

‘Truly… being ignorant and having zero knowledge is a sin,’ Yang Wei sighed inwardly when he could feel Elder Jing giggling sneakily.
