Then his figure flashed, a bloody wind surged, and in an instant, he pounced in front of Sword Bone.
A Tiger Demon and a Sword Demon engaged in a fierce battle.
Monster Qi and Demonic Qi intertwined.
Tiger claws clashed with Sword Bones.
Monster wind howled and Demonic Qi wailed, both Demon Monsters incited their ferocity, fighting evenly matched in a tense battle.
Mo Hua silently watched from the side.
At the same time, he also silently calculated in his mind.
While Sword Bone, as the "Sword Demon," and Jin Gui, after "Demonization," were engaged in a balanced battle, Mo Hua silently inferred the Four Symbols Tiger Pattern on Jin Gui’s back.
He had long set his eyes on this Tiger Pattern.
The tiger is the king of all beasts, and among the diverse Monster Beasts, it ranks as the top tier in strength.
Demon cultivators with "Tiger Patterns" in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons are also extremely rare.
Up until now, Mo Hua had only seen one on Jin Gui.
This is a rare Monster Pattern.
To obtain it, either kill Jin Gui, strip him, and copy it from his corpse.
Or let him exert himself fully, activate the Monster Pattern, and in engaging others, spend some time inferring and recording these "Monster Patterns."
Both methods are quite troublesome, and there hasn’t been much opportunity before.
Now that Sword Bone is present as well, and it and Jin Gui, these two Evil Spirits are equally matched, "weaklings pecking at each other," conveniently giving Mo Hua the chance to "calculate."
Mo Hua’s gaze slightly deepened, calmly inferring.
Jin Gutou and Jin Gui, one transformed into a Sword Demon, the other into a Tiger Demon, their aura mighty, waging a fierce battle as if in a life-and-death duel.
As Mo Hua calculated, they continued fighting.
When Mo Hua finished calculating, they were still fighting.
Mo Hua silently memorized the complete "Four Symbols Mysterious Tiger Demon Patterns," then looked up at these two Evil Spirits’ battle again, inevitably feeling somewhat bored, even a bit sleepy.
And the parties in the fierce battle were obviously not feeling well either.
Sword Bone, having been "tormented" by Mo Hua before, had its Vital Energy injured, making short-term engagement manageable but long-term combat often led to insufficient Evil Power.
Jin Gui realized that within a short time, he simply couldn’t defeat this "powerful" Sword Demon.
He must fight swiftly and decisively!
Jin Gui swung a tiger claw, opening up Sword Bone’s One Sword, and shouted loudly:
"Taoist Friend, with such dao practice, why lower yourself to protect this little ghost completely?"
Sword Bone was taken aback, speechless.
What foolishness is this fool saying?
Whence came his dao practice to completely protect this little ancestor?
Just hearing this made it feel embarrassed.
But despite many inner emotions, its skeletal visage remained grim and cold, none of it showing outwardly.
Jin Gui further advised: "Taoist Friend, why not abandon darkness for light, forsake this little ghost, and join my Valley of Ten Thousand Demons? You might even become a dominant Demon Head someday!"
Sword Bone sneered inwardly.
Ignorance knows no fear, becoming a dominant Demon Head?
What nonsense!
Jin Gui frowned, internally sighing:
What a loyal Old Demon!
Despite my verbal provocations, it doesn’t budge an inch? Insisting on protecting this little ghost completely?
What origin does this little ghost have to make a Sword Demon so fiercely loyal?
"Since so, I’ll have to think of another way..." Jin Gui silently mused.
Then he clenched his fangs, suddenly roared, voice like a fierce tiger.
The Tiger Pattern spread across his body, shining blindingly, demonic power surged, underneath the Blood Skin it churned, even rupturing his flesh to ooze blood.
Sword Bone felt a shiver.
This beast wants to fight desperately?
"Damn, truly a year of bad luck, encountering such a reckless fool, without grievance or hostility, you could pretend, but why fight desperately?"
"Demon Cultivators truly have poor brains!"
Sword Bone internally cursed, but did not dare relax at all.
As a surge of Demonic Qi rose, Sword Bone’s skeletal form transformed into the final "Sword Demon" form.
