The Azure Sword God
The Forest of Death

City of Texas

In the time when Jian Chen and Xiao Yu were looking for lodging to settle in the City of Texas, many of the group were numerical in that day as well. They were all top-tier cultivators that most of them there were certain specialists through the Birth Form. They are stronger at night.

The next day, in the morning when the sun had yet to rise, there were already many cultivators moving as well towards the Deathly Forest.

Jian Chen and Xiao Yu looked out of the inn that looked dilapidated. However, such is the best lodging in the City of Texas.

Without wasting any time, the two of them instantly moved in a certain direction that was the direction where the Deathly Forest was located. Jian Chen and Xiao Yu had obtained the information on the overall location of the Deathly Forest.

Even though it was just a rough map, it was still better to have a map than nothing. However, it was only a layout map of a few places in the Deathly Forest. No one had a complete map of reaching the center of the Deathly Forest.

When the sun had risen, Jian Chen and Xiao Yu had already closed in on the Deathly Forest.

“Jian Chen, do you think the Yan Zhong group will be waiting for us?” Ask Xiao Yu.

“Cannot be. He won't be willing to spend time waiting for a cultivator of our level. He must have thought that we'd been killed in Texas City for not returning. I've been speculating that he thought about this from the beginning.”

“According to him, for someone of our age, when we see many strong cultivators in Killed City, we will return soon, but in fact not. So, he must have directly moved along with his subordinates to the Deathly Forest without waiting for us even after what he said if we did not return, then we would meet in the Deathly Forest.” Jian Chen said.

Xiao Yu did not feel at a loss that Jian Chen had already taken that into account as well. He was already used to Jian Chen's unreasonable mindset.

Not long after, the two stopped at a tree branch while looking towards the strange-looking forest border.

Some cultivators were also seen around the place as if they were thinking whether or not they would enter into the forest.

The reason why some cultivators thought, it was because the atmosphere of the Deathly Forest was very different from the forest in general.

The edge of the Deathly Forest was seen to be filled by dry trees that had no leaves and had a height of about forty meters more.

Even for Jian Chen and Xiao Yu who had already trained in the Spirit Forest, it was extremely rare for there to be such a tall tree which meant that it was extremely rare for one to enter the forest. As well, it was certain that the trees were also extremely strong, otherwise, it would definitely be destroyed by the high-tier spirit beasts.

“Why does it look like the atmosphere when afternoon arrives?” Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows slightly as he gazed towards the Deathly Forest.

Hearing Xiao Yu's question, Jian Chen narrowed his eyes. Using the Eternal Purple Crystal, his eyesight was slightly different than that of a normal person as if he had the Birth Form that was a power located in his eyes.

“Weaouu..” Hui-Ying who was inside Jian Chen's clothes roared in a slightly small voice.

“Hm? Did you notice that Hui-Ying too? Yes, the qi in the forest is different from the outside.” Jian Chen said.

Xiao Yu stared blankly at Jian Chen for a while as he was puzzled how Jian Chen could understand what Hui-Ying was saying. This irritated him for some time as the two of them seemed to be chatting but he only understood what Jian Chen was saying.

Of course Jian Chen would understand what Hui-Ying said because they had made the contract.

“Ayo.” Jian Chen immediately jumped down then darted towards the Deathly Forest and Xiao Yu just followed silently.

Therefore, many cultivators who were initially hesitant were directly moving into the Deathly Forest.

After five minutes of entering the Deathly Forest, Jian Chen and Xiao Yu who were moving above the tree suddenly narrowed their eyes.

Taps! Taps!

Both of them stopped and stared slightly towards the right as there was someone shouting. The shout was a desperate cry which meant that someone was in trouble at the moment.

“Weaouu.. weaouu.” Hui-Ying said in a slightly agitated tone to Jian Chen.

“What did Hui-Ying say?” Xiao Yu asked a little annoyed.

“There are strong spirit animals there. And that's the tiger type. Hui-Ying was eager to eat the tiger-type spirit beast core.” Jian Chen said a little strangely as he did not expect Hui-Ying to be a type of cannibalism.

But, to spirit beasts, Jian Chen felt it was a natural thing. Perhaps the Hui-Ying species did specialize in increasing strength faster if it devoured spirit beast cores of the same Type. Or maybe it is because tiger spirit animals are considered different when the color or there are other body parts that are not the same as other tigers.

“Then, what will we do? Are we going to look towards that spirit animal?” Ask Xiao Yu.

“Yes, if the spirit animal is too strong, we will immediately dodge. I can track his strength from a certain distance.” Jian Chen nodded slightly as he had made up his mind. He felt that if Hui-Ying got stronger, then when there was an enemy stronger than him, by cooperating with Xiao Yu and Hui-Ying, they would have no trouble at all.

Jian Chen and Xiao Yu finally moved towards the source of the previous voice which was none other than the human cry as it was definitely finished off by the spirit beast.

When it comes closer, Jian Chen narrowed his eyes when he sensed with his tracking at a distance of nearly thirty meters that a four meter tall tiger was eating its prey which was none other than a cultivator who had misfortune from meeting with the spirit animal.

“Xiao Yu, that tiger has the weakest fifth stage Martial Master power and the most sixth stage. And its kind, it is a rare tiger.” Jian Chen said seriously.

“Oh? Pretty strong. It was unexpected that even on the outskirts of the Deathly Forest, there were already such a powerful spirit animal roaming around.” Reply Xiao Yu and looked towards Jian Chen then continued with the question, “What kind of tiger is that?”

“Tiger Death. Outside, this type is very rarely seen because it likes a slightly dark place. It cannot be denied that a place like this is the main home of the Tiger of Death.” Reply Jian Chen.

“Wait, you said it was the Tiger of Death? Isn't that a stronger species than the Raptor recorded in your book?” Xiao Yu asked in astonishment.

“Yes. If we want to fight it, we can't relax.” Reply Jian Chen.

“Let's try. After all, I am hungry right now.” Xiao Yu said slightly embarrassedly.

Jian Chen did not care at all and continued to move, not long after, he looked at the Death Tiger that wanted to devour its prey but immediately came to a halt when it sensed the presence of Jian Chen and Xiao Yu.

“Weaouu!” Hui-Ying seemed to want to jump out when she saw the Death Tiger a sign that she was eager to defeat the Death Tiger and showed that she was in a higher grade.

But Jian Chen instantly caught up to him and stopped at one of the tree branches along with Xiao Yu.

“Grrrr..” The Tiger of Death growled a little more as he heard the voice of the little Tiger meowing like a cat and he certainly knew what Hui-Ying's voice meant.
