Alchemy & Martial Supreme

Qin Ming's fist landed on the vicious beast's neck, but instead of hitting flesh, it felt like he had hit metal.    

It turned out that there was a thick layer of scales on its neck, protecting its vitals.    

Logically speaking, Qin Ming's fist should not have been able to cause much damage to the vicious beast, just like how he had hit its head previously.    

However, the truth was that the vicious beast's body couldn't help but retreat after receiving Qin Ming's solid punch. It did not howl, but its eyes were already red.    

Seeing the vicious beast's appearance, Qin Ming smiled, "It seems like this time, I really hurt you!"    

Although the vicious beast was screaming miserably just now, it did not suffer much damage.    

Now, the vicious beast did not howl, but it was actually injured.    

The more heavily injured a vicious beast was, the more vicious it would be.    

Qin Ming could feel the vicious aura on the vicious beast's body. Its claws were pointing downward, and its body was slightly bent. It was about to launch an attack.    

That's right, up until now, the vicious beast had yet to use its full strength.    

The atmosphere in the air was very heavy. The aura on the vicious beast's body became more and more intense, and the vicious light in its eyes became more and more intense.    

Just as Qin Ming thought that he and the vicious beast were going to fight to the death, he did not expect the vicious beast to howl and slowly retreat.    

After that, it glanced at Qin Ming and flew away.    

Qin Xixuan was still standing on the side nervously. She was worried that Qin Ming would be injured in the battle, and might even be killed by the Vicious Beast. She was already prepared to save Qin Ming at any time.    

But she didn't expect that the Vicious Beast would escape just like that...    

It seemed that it really did escape.    

The two of them didn't move, but focused on their surroundings.    

After waiting for a while, when the Vicious Beast completely disappeared in front of them, the two of them were sure that the Vicious Beast had really escaped, not some kind of strategy.    

"It escaped?" Qin Ming was surprised.    

Qin Xixuan walked up and looked at the back of the Vicious Beast as it left. "It seems that it really escaped."    

Qin Ming asked, "Will the Vicious Beasts at the periphery of the Supreme Realm escape?"    

"Yes... Half-Step Supreme Realm Vicious Beasts, will they escape?"    

Qin Ming still couldn't believe that a Vicious Beast that had reached the late stage of the Half-Step Supreme Realm would actually turn around and escape.    

Most importantly, they had fought for so long, and he had only injured it once.    

And seeing how angry it was, Qin Ming thought that the Vicious Beast was going to go crazy. He was already prepared to fight to the death.    

But in the end, the Vicious Beast actually ran away. This made him very surprised.    

"It should really have escaped!" Qin Xixuan nodded. "Vicious Beasts also know how to escape. Even if their martial arts have reached the Half-Step Supreme Realm, although the Vicious Beasts at the periphery are not very intelligent, when they feel that the enemy is not easy to deal with and their lives are in danger, they will also escape."    

"For example, ordinary Vicious Beasts will attack human Martial Cultivators, but very few Vicious Beasts will actively attack Half-Zhizun Vicious Beasts."    

"They will only emit the aura of Half-Zhizun, and the other Vicious Beasts will flee in panic."    

"However, that is only under the premise that the enemy is stronger than the Vicious Beasts. Otherwise, the Vicious Beasts will continue to fight until they die."    

Qin Xixuan also did not quite understand. The Vicious Beasts were clearly stronger than Qin Ming.    

At least, Qin Ming's injuries were much more serious than the Vicious Beasts.    

Although the Vicious Beasts had received a punch from Qin Ming, it was only a punch, and it was blocked by the scales. The injuries they suffered were negligible.
