The saber-toothed tiger's strength far exceeded that of the demonic wolves. If it weren't for its injury, it would have directly pounced on the wolf king and bitten its neck. At this moment, to survive, it could only ambush the early-stage second-rank demonic wolves.

The saber-toothed tiger bit the neck of a demonic wolf in one move. However, it was not in good shape either, as the short sword in its mouth pierced deeper, causing it to fling the demonic wolf out of its mouth. At the same time, its movement paused, and it was bitten on the paw by a pouncing demonic wolf.

The saber-toothed tiger roared in anger, and its hind legs kicked forward, flinging the demonic wolf away and crashing into another one coming from the front. The two demonic wolves struggled on the ground but did not get up. In just a few seconds, the saber-toothed tiger had killed three demonic wolves, living up to its reputation as a late-stage second-rank demonic beast.

The deaths of the three demonic wolves thoroughly enraged the remaining four. Under the leadership of the wolf king, the four demonic wolves pounced on the saber-toothed tiger without hesitation. The saber-toothed tiger, already bitten on the paw, could no longer dodge the attacks of the demonic wolves.

Roaring to the sky in anger, the saber-toothed tiger kicked its hind legs, and its body swung to the left, directly kicking away an early-stage second-rank demonic wolf. At the same time, it was bitten on the abdomen by another demonic wolf, causing it to roar in pain.

At this moment, the saber-toothed tiger faced the wolf king. The mid-stage second-rank wolf king was the only threat to the saber-toothed tiger. Because of the broken sword in its mouth, it could not bite the wolf king, so it could only use its head to ram the wolf king.

The wolf king did not expect the saber-toothed tiger to use its head to ram it. It was caught off guard and was flung away, crashing into the ironwood tree where Su Ming was, almost knocking him off. Su Ming was frightened and tightly hugged the tree.

Two late-stage first-rank demonic wolves bit the saber-toothed tiger's abdomen, causing it to howl in pain and unable to move. At this moment, the wolf king, which had just gotten up from the ground, opened its mouth, howled to the sky, and pounced on the saber-toothed tiger in a life-or-death stance.

Unable to move, the saber-toothed tiger's agility was greatly reduced. Faced with the wolf king's attack, it could only open its mouth to meet it.

The wolf king bit the saber-toothed tiger's left eye and bit down with all its strength, not letting go at all, clearly intent on killing the saber-toothed tiger. However, the wolf king underestimated the hardness of the saber-toothed tiger's skull, and its fangs could not break through the skull in a short time.

Bitten in the left eye, the saber-toothed tiger went mad with pain. As it opened its mouth, it fiercely bit the wolf king's neck, breaking it. At the same time, the short sword in its mouth pierced into its brain, taking the saber-toothed tiger's life. The wolf king and the saber-toothed tiger fell together.

"Do you want to stay up there any longer? Don't you want to come down?"

Su Han saw his son use seven demonic wolves to deal with the saber-toothed tiger, allowing him to escape. He felt proud of his son's intelligence and resourcefulness. In his eyes, Su Ming had grown a lot after this near-death experience.

Su Han's powerful voice sounded like music to Su Ming's ears. His heroic father had finally appeared, and his life was saved. He felt a wave of relief, but then he felt weak all over. He had a hard time holding on and fell straight down the next second.

"Ah..."

Su Ming fell from a height of a hundred meters, expecting it to be very painful, but he felt something soft beneath him.

"You good-for-nothing, I finally left these two weakest demonic wolves as mounts, and you just crushed them. Now we have to walk back." Su Han looked at Su Ming, who had crushed the two demonic wolves, with a hint of helplessness.

Damn, my luck is really exploding. Su Ming jumped up from the demonic wolf's body, looking very happy.

He was just an ordinary person, and falling from a height of over two hundred meters would have injured him, if not killed him.

My son can't be that stupid, can he? He's still smiling, and so happily... Su Han looked at Su Ming with confusion, not understanding what Su Ming was so happy about.

When Su Ming saw his father, he immediately returned to his normal self, then lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong: "Father, I broke your battle sword and lost the arm armor."

"Stupid child, as long as you're safe, that's all that matters. In my eyes, you are the most important." Su Han looked at Su Ming with a kind expression.

Seeing that his father was not angry, Su Ming looked up and stuck out his tongue, a smile on his face.

"Father, let's continue hunting beasts." Su Ming said with a smile.

"It's not early anymore. Let's go back. Today's harvest is already quite good. One saber-toothed tiger and seven demonic wolves, that's almost as much as a hunting team would get in a day." Su Han said with a smile, clearly satisfied with the pile of demonic beast corpses on the ground.

After saying this, Su Han looked around and walked to a small tree in the southwest direction. The tree was about five meters tall and thirty centimeters in diameter.

Standing in front of the small tree, Su Han let out a low shout, then formed a fist with his right hand and punched the tree trunk. The punch was full of power, breaking the tree in one go. After the tree fell, Su Han split it in two, took the upper part, and tied the bodies of the saber-toothed tiger and the demonic wolves to it. Then, he and Su Ming carried the tree back.

On the way back, Su Ming deliberately took a detour to the place where he had encountered the saber-toothed tiger. He had not forgotten the conversion task, which was crucial to his future.

Whether it was good luck or a sudden burst of good fortune, the two-tailed fox was actually lying at the entrance of the saber-toothed tiger's den, snoring.

Damn little fox, almost got me killed. Let's see how I deal with you this time.

After quietly putting down the tree, Su Ming borrowed a dagger from Su Han, took a few light steps, and quickly approached the two-tailed fox. The fox was either sleeping too deeply or felt safe in the saber-toothed tiger's den, as it did not sense Su Ming's presence. By the time it noticed, Su Ming's dagger had already pierced its brain.

"Conversion task completed, Slaying Heaven Divine Technique activated successfully."

"Completed 'Extreme Bitterness,' level increased by one."

"Talent skills successfully activated: Force, Control, and Intent."

The little fairy's voice made Su Ming's heart leap with joy. The spiritual energy in the air flowed into Su Ming's body on its own, and he felt a sense of comfort all over. The feeling of being nourished by spiritual energy was very unique, and the spiritual energy absorbed through the Slaying Heaven Divine Technique was far purer than what he had absorbed before in his cultivation.

"Master, congratulations on completing the conversion task and successfully entering the Mortal Heart Realm."

"Is the level of cultivation the same for both Immortal Cultivation and Divine Cultivation?" Su Ming asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Immortal Cultivation and Divine Cultivation are the same in the early stages. However, when a certain realm is reached, the spiritual energy in the body of an Immortal Cultivator will transform into Immortal Spiritual Energy, while the spiritual energy in the body of a Divine Cultivator will transform into Divine Spiritual Energy. When the body transforms into Immortal Energy and Divine Energy, it means entering the Immortal Realm and the Ancient Divine Realm, respectively. This is the internal difference between Immortal Cultivation and Divine Cultivation. The external difference is the gap in strength."
