《Master of Jade Cauldron》Book 2 Chapter 79 - Prosperity Realm - Day 1 Sun 3 (Lower Part)

"Wooooooo!" the Gigantic Wood Tiger Beast howls as it getting close to the Habitat's defensive perimeter. The next moment, from the belly of the Tiger beast, the unaccountable number of hand look-alike limbs spread out like tentacles, as it brings down the defensive wall that separated the habitat from the woods. With the wall is brought down, those smaller Wooden Beast, such as the Scarlet Wood Fruit Insect, the Scarlet Wood Praying Insect, and the Scarlet Wood Beetle Insect.
This three type of insect is their frontline vanguards, with each of the insect possessing typical speciality on their birth. Although their strength is in between Human Adept Realm to Earth Adept Realm, their innate speciality managed to help them become more dangerous, even if they are counted not as deadly as their other kinds. The Fruit Insect possess a strong [Scarlet Carapace] that could dissipates the Essence Energy within each attack, the Praying Insect with its strong [Torment Scythe] that could slice through anything protected with Essence Energy, and lastly, the Beetle Insect with its [Unstoppable Fortress] that could ram through anything with Essence Energy.
Facing such situation, even Long Feng is forced to fight alone if he wished to escape, never forget to mention that the main threat, the Gigantic Wood Tiger Beast is still standing before them, with an unknown special trait within that yet to be explored. Without requiring any notice to start the battle, both side instantly charges towards their opponent like it is a prearranged battle.
Long Feng required only five seconds, as he uses all his Essence Energy to summon his [Limbs of Xuan Wu] to aid him in his fight! From the words of Tuluwo, Long Feng assign himself to handle all the Praying Insect while the others face the slightly weaker counterparts, the Fruit Insect and the Beetle Insect. Since the Praying Insect possesses no special defensive speciality, Long Feng's pair of claws easily smashed them into a pile of compost as he charges forward.
In the same time, to aid him in his battle, Long Feng reveals one of his trump cards! The two young Corpse Refining Tiger's Cub, Zhen Xi and Gan Xi and their respective four Essence Fabricator Ants siblings! The moment this six young Cultivation Beast is released into the wild, they are more or less being slightly too active in their fights!
Zhen Xi and Gan Xi is quite cooperative with each other, added with the amazing rate of growth, their current body size is already comparable with a ten years old children. One offensive, another defensive, both of the cubs could handle a single Scarlet Wood Praying Insect at a time, allowing Long Feng to focus on his initial targets. Meanwhile, in a similar situation, the four smaller Essence Fabricator Young Ants are no pushover as well. With their combination of tactical advantage added with their numbers, the bullets came from their Abdomen, slowly exhaust their targets before the gluttonous jaw buried into their targets and being swallowed into pieces. (Ants ate compost, it's literally a cycle of life)
With such a strong helpers by his side, Long Feng's team quickly dispose of a large amount of Scarlet Wood Praying Insect as he fought closer to the side of the Gigantic Wood Tiger Beast. The Tiger Beast quickly noticed the reduction of numbers in its rank, as it howls softly once again, calling for more Praying Insect to come over to its aid. "I have to quickly handle this Tiger Beast before it kept summoning more and more Wooden Beast over to this battlefield." Long Feng quickly found out the role of this Tiger Beast within this battlefield.

"Fire Lizard Pill, Go!" Long Feng wrapped a stack of Fire Lizard Pills with his Red Fire Stage Elemental Essence as he fires them under the assistance of the Triple Impact Jade Bow's first striking form. The scattered shot effect quickly turned the surrounding area into a fire area, causing the Tiger Beast to move frantically in order to protect itself from making contact with the dangerous fire.
Seeing the Tiger Beast is temporarily disturbed, Long Feng aim his bow towards the other two kinds of Wooden Beast the other tribesmen is facing in a tough battle and gave a range assistance. "Tik, Tik, Tik!" the arrow hits its target without fail as those Wooden Beast's attention is aim towards the target before them, not the sneak attacker Long Feng. But because the arrow is made from converting the Essence Energy into a materialized shape, the arrow failed to do any formidable damage. But in exchange, this creates the opportunity for the tribesmen to pierce their weak point, and dispose of those opponents disturbed by Long Feng.
[Friends of the tribe, thank you for helping us!] a few tribesmen quickly bow in thanks before they continue to charge forward, but in a similar way, they are not approaching the area where the Fire Lizard Pill is still burning, because of the similar disadvantage they shared with the Wooden Beast. Barely an hour, the fight finally almost come into conclusion as the attacking Wooden Beast pack is almost completely disposed of. In the same time, through refining the Brown Crystal Bead dropped from those Wooden Beast, the strength of those tribesmen quickly catch up with the opposing force, allowing them to be able to fight against two to three opponent in each single approach.
"Woooooooooooooo..." a very long and soft howl could be heard from the Tiger Beast, as it slowly changes its form from four limbs walker into a two limbs walker. Its body proportion quickly changed and turned in a shape like a standing bear, only stronger and more massive in term of size. "WOWO!" this time, a strong howl came out instantly as the pair of upper Hinds quickly slam on the ground and distinguished all the burning flames around the Tiger Beast!
"WOWOWOW!" the tiger beast strikes! In an instant, one tribesman failed to notice the sudden changes in the flow of the battlefield as it got caught within the enormous jaw of the Tiger Beast. Just in a simple biting action, the tribesman is refined into the Tiger Beast' belly and converted into its own strength. That instant, this Tiger Beast immediately release the strength equivalent to a Peak Adept Realm cultivator! Long Feng couldn't help but felt a slight worry toward this kind of opponent.
[Tuluwo, call your men to get away from the Tiger Beast's attacking range! They will help to strengthen the Tiger Beast if they failed to run!] Long Feng had Tuluwo to quickly order his men to disperse and allows Long Feng to fight against the Tiger Beast. The moment he tried to get close to that figure three times taller than himself, Long Feng felt slightly intimidated. "Damn Wooden Beast, how dare you make me look at you in such way!" Long Feng twisted his Qian Kun Sword to form a spiralling action and pierce through the Tiger Beast's elbow parts.

But with its advantages of entirely formed from plants and vines, the Tiger Beast felt no pain at all, as it turned around in an unimaginable position and gave Long Feng a strike with its left. "Bam!" Long Feng is pressed down to the ground, feeling painful on both of his knees from such a heavy impact. [Limbs of Xuan Wu!] Long Feng tossed his sword upwards as he furiously strikes his pair of claws towards the Tiger Beast's body, and like how a cat tear its target apart, Long Feng attack quickly cause the chest part of the Tiger Beast began to flow a kind of greenish liquid.
The Qian Kun Sword that was tossed earlier stabbed directly on the nape of the Tiger Beast. Under this sudden disturbance, the Tiger Beast suddenly failed to move its body as before, as if its action is slightly disrupted by this insignificant attack. Seeing the movement of the Tiger Beast become slower out of sudden, Long Feng's claw quickly destroyed the head of the Tiger Beast, and within his claw, a bigger size Brown Crystal Bead is held firmly in his hand.
[Friends! I successfully defeated the Tiger Be...] Long Feng happily tells the others he had defeated the Tiger Beast, but before he finished his words, "Bam!" a right claw strikes in a point blank position, directly injuring Long Feng immediately from being unprepared. "What the Hell! I had destroyed if damn head and taken the Bead away!" Long Feng cursed the Tiger Beast's tenacity in surviving, as it still could move without problem, in exchange for his over confidence, Long Feng is injured, with blood could be seen flowing out from his nose, mouth and ears.
"Double Sealing Pill!" Long Feng knows that he will have difficulties in defending the next upcoming attack, and quickly activate two Sealing Pill consecutively to defend himself. And in a single strike, the double layer of Sealing Sphere is immediately broken, revealing the injured Long Feng within the sphere. "Damn Beast, you want to have a piece of this man?" Long Feng bloody eyes quickly became furious as it fuelled with anger because of his lack of cautious, and in that moment, Long Feng channel all his Essence Energy into his both leg as he uses the Xuan Wu Divination Art in its strongest mode.
"Xuan Wu Divination Art, Carapace of Xuan Wu!"
Long Feng push his body to its limit as the Carapace of Xuan Wu appears like a layer of Tortoise Shell surrounding his body. Additionally, his body overall performance rate increased into five times stronger. By popping in three Tiger Stripes Soul Pill into his mouth, Long Feng quickly have three burst of recovery effect, as he channels all the miraculous healing properties to recover his injuries. The next three burst, Long Feng used it to recover a large part of his used Essence Energy, and on its third three burst, he used it to strengthen his body as he swings his pair of claws like an angered beast.
"You F**king Tiger Beast lets see who is the tiger and who is the little lamb here!" Long Feng furiously attack the Tiger Beast that still moving without its head. "Swoosh! Swoosh!" two strikes could be heard along with the extremely loud wind flows, and that gigantic Tiger Beast lose its body from that two attack. But is Long Feng satisfied with such feat?
The answer is, of course, no, because as he throws the two bigger Brown Crystal Beads on the ground, Long Feng slammed his claw directly from the top to the ground, and continue for another three to four strikes, until that lower part of the body, finally lost its will to continue to move. All that remains, is another two more Bigger Beads on the ground where the Tiger Beast met its end. Long Feng allows the final three burst of healing properties to come into his body, as he recovers most of his strength in case of any changes within the battlefield.
But after waiting for about ten minutes, the quietness of the woods finally allows the tribesmen and Long Feng to relax, as there is no longer any Wooden Beast is coming towards to join the fight. "Huh..." Long Feng exhausted himself quite extreme this time, as he almost falls into an unconscious state as he relaxed from the fighting stance. Supported by two of the Prosperity Tribesmen, Long Feng could hear some cheers from them calling his name. [Friend Feng, Friend Feng, Friend Feng!] as he falls unconscious.
Noticing their Master had finally relaxed, the Corpse Refining Tiger Cubs finally started to run around having fun, while the four Essence Fabricator Young Ants starts to eat those compost scattered around the battlefield. some of the tribesmen start to clean the area as well, and some began to move over to the destroyed wall as they start to recreate another wall all over again.
just like this, the Third Sun is finally over as the fourth Sun finally came in. while in the same time, unknown to all the other five habitats currently, is the Northern Habitat that was under siege from the Wooden Beast as well, is totally destroyed without a single form of life could be seen within.
