That was the first point.

The second was that after the tiger failed to obtain elixir pills from Lu Ye, it lowered its demands to Spirit Stones; failing that, it then asked for healing pills, giving off the impression of a thief who wasn\'t willing to leave empty-handed.

Therefore, Lu Ye deduced that although the big tiger seemed formidable, it was likely just a paper tiger.

Lu Ye took out a healing pill and placed it at his feet, as a final test.

Just as expected, the big tiger was unwilling to come close to Lu Ye and simply asked him to throw the healing pill over.

Having confirmed the big tiger\'s strength was not as immense as imagined, Lu Ye let down his guard. His task was now simple: kill the tiger, eat its meat!

It was undeniable that this was a demon beast with cultivation. If he could kill and eat it, it would surely be more beneficial than eating many ordinary wild beasts; perhaps his success in opening the 9th orifice would be thanks to this big tiger.

Lu Ye had never been one to just follow the rules; otherwise, he wouldn\'t have lured Manager Yang into the mine filled with the origin magnetic field.

He would prepare for potential dangers and also strive to seize possible opportunities.

He activated the Fire Serpent Talisman, which sent flames swirling towards the big tiger, and at the same time, Lu Ye charged forward with his sword.

However, as soon as he made a move, he felt a heaviness on his shoulder, as if something had weighed down on his body, causing him to stoop almost to the point of kneeling on the ground.

At the same time, a piercing shriek echoed in his ears, and in an instant, he felt as though someone had struck his head hard with a hammer, leaving him dazed, with stars flashing before his eyes.

He propped himself up with his sword in one hand, forcing himself to stay upright. Simultaneously, he drove the spirit force within the 8 Major Spiritual Orifices to protect his body, and in an instant, it seemed as if there was a layer of fire burning on the surface of his body, the flames tinged faintly with gold.

His element sign was primarily fire with a secondary of metal; therefore, the spirit force within his body would exhibit the luster of these two attributes of the Five Elements.

A miserable and wretched scream rang out, and the heavy feeling on his shoulder instantly disappeared. His head was still dizzy, but he had recovered significantly.

What he found inconceivable was that he had just been sneak-attacked!

The attacker was not the big tiger, but someone else!

Lu Ye had been at the bottom of the cave the whole time, with the big tiger blocking the cave entrance. From beginning to end, he had only been communicating with the big tiger, and no one else was in sight.

Therefore, it never crossed his mind that someone would launch a sneak attack from behind. Fortunately, it seemed the attacker was not very powerful; he had merely activated his protective spirit force, and the assailant had been repelled.

As the shrill scream was heard, Lu Ye abruptly turned around, catching sight of a vague form merging into the rock wall and disappearing from the corner of his eye.

Without time to investigate the identity of the assailant, he was caught by a pungent wind; the big tiger had already pounced towards him.

The Fire Serpent Talisman had not killed the opponent; it had merely scorched its fur, which just goes to show that the big tiger indeed had cultivation.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

At this moment, using another Spirit Talisman was clearly too late, and Lu Ye had missed the best opportunity to strike. He could only slash fiercely with his sword, powering it with spirit force and enhancing it with Sharpness spirit runes!

During this time, using Manager Yang\'s longsword, he had killed quite a few ferocious beasts. Alas, since he never learned any proper sword techniques, his attacks mostly consisted of simple chopping and slashing.

The longsword, enhanced with Sharpness, was incredibly sharp. When he fought Zhou Cheng, the latter\'s similarly-made sword was cleaved in two by a single strike from Lu Ye.

However, the bones of this big tiger seemed even tougher than Zhou Cheng\'s sword. Lu Ye\'s strike landed on the beast\'s shoulder blade, and to his surprise, he did not completely sever the creature\'s body. Instead, he was thrown off balance by a strong force.

Lu Ye took the opportunity to retreat a few steps and withdrew his longsword as tiger blood splattered.

Before he could make another move, he felt a numbness in his chest. He had been hit by a swipe of the tiger\'s claw, stripping away a layer of his flesh.

The pain did not affect Lu Ye; it actually sharpened his awareness. In the confined space, the struggle between man and tiger was incredibly dangerous, with death potentially just a breath away.

However, after this exchange, Lu Ye was significantly reassured because his judgment was correct.

The cultivation of the big tiger was not as profound as he had imagined. This was not an insurmountable enemy. With the right tactics, the day when he would defeat the tiger and feast on its flesh was close at hand!

The big tiger roared and pounced on Lu Ye again. At the same time, a series of ghostly wails and wolf howls suddenly echoed in the cave, disturbing Lu Ye\'s mind.

It was a trick played by an enemy lurking in the shadows.

Lu Ye ignored this hidden foe, focusing only on the big tiger\'s movements. As the beast leaped forward, he swiftly crouched down, stamped his foot, and slid under the tiger\'s belly.

As their figures crossed, Lu Ye\'s longsword thrust upward sharply, striking the tiger\'s soft underbelly. He had thought this strike would gut the tiger, but unexpectedly, a pale golden light appeared around the creature\'s belly, providing protection. Even the longsword, bolstered with Sharpness, only managed to penetrate the light barrier slightly, failing to seriously wound the beast.

When they both rose again, their positions had swapped.

Originally, Lu Ye was deep inside the cave, with the big tiger blocking the entrance, but now the situation had reversed.

Moreover, after this exchange, Lu Ye realized that while the tiger\'s strength was not great, it was not weak either, probably slightly stronger than himself.

It was only because he possessed a sharp weapon, a weapon still capable of being augmented with spirit runes, that he had a slight advantage.

Yet continuing the fight like this would surely lead to mutual destruction.

With this in mind, Lu Ye reached into his storage sack and pulled out a Spirit Talisman.

If his own strength was insufficient, Spirit Talismans could make up the difference. The thirty talismans given to him by the sect master were not just for show. Lu Ye had no intention of being frugal; if not now, then when?

But before he could activate the talisman, a crisp voice urgently cried out, "Surrender, and spare my life!"

With downcast eyes and brows, Lu Ye found his will to fight waning at hearing such words at a critical moment. With spirit force surging in the hand clutching the talisman, he shouted lowly, "Come out!"

From the depths of the cave, beside the big tiger, there emerged a figure from the rock wall. The figure wasn\'t substantial but seemed to be a convergence of spirit force.

After stepping out, the figure slowly became solid, gradually indistinguishable from a normal person.

Turned out to be a slender and beautiful girl with waist-length black hair, wearing a white dress, with a mole beneath the corner of her eye that added a touch of charm. She looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old.

Once the girl appeared, she stood beside the big tiger and looked at Lu Ye timidly, showing an expression as if she had done something wrong.

Lu Ye furrowed his brow, "What exactly are you?"
