Chapter 154: Lamp Light Ligers?

Shirong looked towards the sounds that were coming from the eastern direction. He extended his spirit sense and detected the beasts. At first he was calm as the Oliy beasts he had detected were those in the early stage  core condensation realm and mid stage core condensation realm.

But a couple of seconds later his expression changed as he also sensed the late stage core condensation realm  beasts.

"Looks like I'm in for a good fight…" Shirong muttered to himself and got ready.

Soon he also detected the peak stage core condensation realm beasts that were behind them. His expression turned serious for a moment before a smile appeared.

"HAHAHA! THIS IS IT! THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD BE! A FIGHT WORTHY OF A BREAKTHROUGH!" Shirong laughed out loud like a mad person.

"Annnnnd he's gone loco…" Lin Wu muttered to himself seeing Shirong's change.

~Sigh~

"Seems like I'm gonna have to take some extra efforts too…" Lin Wu said before planning a strategy in his mind.

He instructed the system to do a few things and to analyze the area. He needed to be fully aware of what was where so that he could take advantage of it all. Though one thing was for sure, if they were able to kill all of the beasts and absorb their spirit qi and vital energy; both Lin Wu and Shirong would have enough to break through to the nascent soul realm.

The only problem now was to survive. If these beasts had come in intervals, Shirong would have had no problem. But with these many beasts together it was going to be quite difficult, especially because of the type of beasts that were attacking them.

"System show me the data on the beasts!" Lin Wu ordered.

~Ding~

SCAN COMPLETE: Targets identified

TARGET NAME: Lamp Light Liger

CULTIVATION BASE: Early to peak stage of core condensation realm.

INFO: The Lamp light Liger beasts are the descendants of the Twin Light Liger. They have two eyes that glow with a flicking yellow light similar to a lamp. The Lamp Light Ligers that can advance their bloodline to the Twin Light Liger can reach the Nascent soul realm and beyond. 

The Lamp Light Ligers have the ability to temperately blind their victims using a flash of light from their eyes. Their physical strength is also great along with their vital energy. They prefer attacking in a group Whig can be anywhere from five to fifty beasts in size and is often led by a Peak Stage Core condensation realm Lamp Light Liger.

"So these are the subordinates of the strongest ruler of the millennium forest, the Twin Light Liger. Seems like this is going to be even more difficult…" Lin Wu said before the plan appeared in his mind.

Because the Lamp Light Ligers were beasts that were used to attacking in groups their team work was much better than other beasts. Shirong would have had an easier time if these beasts were unorganized, but with their coordination like this, he would have to stake his life to survive.

Shirong looked at the Lamp Light Ligers with a malevolent grin on his face as he withdrew a few pills from the spatial storage bracelet and stuffed them in his mouth. These were all supportive pills that included a few Earthen Qi pills that could form an armor made out of Earth attribute qi on his body, and Qi furnace Pill which could increase the potency of his attacks.

There were also some healing pills that would continually heal him as the battle went on. They would slowly release their medicinal properties, enhancing his regeneration rate.

With everything ready, Shirong gripped the green crystal spear tightly as he poured spirit qi into it and readied his own qi skills.

"GRRRR!"

"ROAR!"

The Lamp Light Ligers abroad their fangs and showed their hostility to Shirong. While he could only perceive them as animistic noises, Lin Wu on the other hand was able to understand exactly what they were speaking due to the translation that the System had set up.

"Look it is a human!" one of the Lamp Light Liger s's spoke.

"Oh yes… its been a long time since I tasted a human." Another one said.

"Oh brothers, you are in for a treat, humans are quite delicious. Especially the ones that are cultivators, they refine their bones and marrows, which only makes them that much tempting." An older Lamp Light Liger spoke.

"I remember my first human, it was a female one. She had such soft skin, and barely any fat."

"Bah! What do you know about quality humans, the best ones are the fatties. Their fat is rich with spirit qi and vital energy."

"No, no, the best part is the brains I say. If you ate some, maybe you'll get smart enough to learn to appreciate its taste." A bigger Lamp Light Liger beast joked.

Lin Wu: "…"

"Enough! Focus on the task that the king ordered us to do! Kill the human quickly, we have to capture more territories." The Lamp Light Liger beast that seemed to be the leader spoke.

Shirong scanned all of the beasts with his spirit sense and got an idea of their cultivation bases.

"HAAHAH! TAKE THIS!" Shirong shouted before jumping up high, the spear flickering with a green light.

"Immortal Sky Shaker Art: Cloud Splitting Gale!" 

Wind attribute spirit qi wrapped around the Green Crystal spear as it started to extend. Green light flickered on the length of the spear along with two crimson lights that looked like malevolent eyes staring into one's soul.

~KACHA~

The sound of a sonic boom was heard as the spear broke the sound barrier and whipped towards the two Lamp Light Ligers that were at the front. A deep green wave of energy spread along with the spear and struck the Lamp Light Ligers.

~Splatter~

Before the Lamp Light Ligers could even reach the two that were in the front, were split in half. Their front ends separating from their back.
