Because of it's smell, it wasn't a good idea to do close combat with it and keeping a distance would also keep it from injuring her. Though Undead Gluttonous Boars had plenty of potential in terms of power growth, it couldn't overcome it's natural weaknesses so eaily. Because it was what it is, they don't have any ranged combat techniques or anything except for their smell, if that can be called a technique. And, it was only called "Undead" because they were still moving despite clearly rotting. They weren't actually unkillable. As long as one could destroy it's "heart", the Boar will collapse and turn into dust in the blink of an eye. This didn't mean a live beating heart of the animal, but a stone that more or less kept the body alive. This "stone" was made of condensed demonic energy and resentment, residing within it's never deteriorating body, their skeleton. However, each Undead gluttonous Boar had their demonic "heart" in different places so one couldn't estimate where it was. And even if someone could guess it, they'd have ot get through the defenses of the bones first.
The Undead Gluttonous Boar charged at her where she was standing and before it could ram into her, she flipped into the air. Making a mask out of the air to filter out the rotting smell of the boar, she landed behind it and flung out her whip. The whip danced as if alive, striking any weak spots it saw. The lashing made the Undead Gluttonous Boar roar in pain. It turned around to try to charge at her again but Shen Tianyu's whip struck it across the eyes. Though it technically doesn't use the eyes anymore, it was still painful to have them be struck by a whip. It roared into the sky and charged forward regardless, blood flowing from it's eye sockets. Unperturbed, Shen Tianyu dodged to the right and unleashed a flurry of attacks on it's right flank. The Undead Gluttonous Boar tumbled into the pile of corpses making up the ring. It flung the corpses that laid on top of it away and roared, chasing after her. The Undead Gluttonous Boars don't use their senses, as in they don't see, hear nor smell. The only way for them to "sense" a living thing was by following it's special instincts granted to them by their demonic "heart", allowing them to sense any living thing. This ability doesn't differentiate between human or animal, and demonic beasts were also considered "living" by the demonic "heart". This was why Shen Tianyu was surprsied that the hoarde of demonic beasts were so orderly and that the Undead Gluttonous Boar hasn't attacked any other demonic beast aside from the Dead Soul Beast. They didn't have any limits and would eat whatever was deemed "living" no matter how big or how many. It was unprecedented to see it in a group much less, living in a group.
Shen Tianyu dodged to the left this time and did the same, the Undead Gluttonous Boar was too slow to turn around and crashed into the ring again. 'Not in the hind side, not in the right side nor the left side. So the "heart" can only be in it's front. Perhaps in it's head?' She thought where to hit it next as she waited for the Undead Gluttonous Boar to regain it's footing.
It only had one pattern and that was to charge at it's target. It's really a miracle that it could beat the Dead Soul Beast. Maybe it just meant it's skeleton was just that hard. Shen Tianyu struck the Boar's face, ripping the already rotting flesh to create an even more ghastly face but she didn't manage to find any weird spots that told her that was where it's demonic "Heart" resided. She managed to dodge last minute by jumping into the air again with a straight face, as if the grotesque boar face didn't shake her one bit. 'Not the face... then below the skull? Unless it's in the underbelly, I should be able to reach it from a distance. I'd rather not go under the source of that stench. My mask probably won't be able to filter the stink out.' She somersaulted and landed on her feet, facing the Undead Gluttonous Boar again as it dug itself out of the pile it had caused to collapse on itself. It pawed at the ground and let out a misty breathe in it's furious agitation before it charged at her while releasing a roar encompassed with it's stinky odor. Shen Tianyu stood her ground and unleashed her whip again, this time in a harder to reach spot, below the skull but above the legs. A certain spot reflected the whip harder than the other spots, which clued in Shen Tianyu. The Undead Gluttonous Boar was nearing so she dodged aside first. Luckily, the "heart" in Undead Gluttonous Boars didn't move, unlike some rarer demonic beasts so as long as she found it, she didn't need to rush. Though the stench still bothered her very much.
This next charge, Shen Tianyu focused her attacks on the spot that she found was the hardest part out of the Boar's whole skeletal body. However, the duration of one it's charges wasn't long enough for her to reach the demonic "heart", even as it howled in pain as it ran wildly towards her. To an Undead Gluttonous Boar, perhaps the pain was comparable to having it's heart forcibly scooped out. Unfortunately, it wasn't intelligent enough to counter these kind of attacks and only knew to assault again with it's body lowered to try to cover up the spot. But it was no use. As long as the opponent knew where the demonic "heart" was on the Undead Gluttonous Boar, they didn't need to deal with it's other body parts or attacks. Shen Tianyu wrapped her whip around it's skeletal neck and flung it upwards, exposing the spot where it's demonic heart resided, the place it was trying to hide. With the Undead Gluttonous Boars weak spot on full display, Shen Tianyu drew her sword and jumped straight at the flailing creature in the air. She stabbed her sword straight through it's strong skeleton and it's demonic heart. The Undead Gluttonous Boar let out a last, loud squeal before the light disappeared from it's eyes. Shen Tianyu landed on the ground first, and as she watched the Undead Gluttonous Boar, it quickly disintegrated as it fell. By the time it was supposed to touch the ground, there were only a few dust specks left to prove it had existed before.
"Well done, young one." A voice seemed to resound within the whole desert, or rather the pocket space. However, it didn't seem hostile, but rather a bit warm. Shen Tianyu looked around to try to find the voice but couldn't lcoate it. She then had a thought and looked straight at the Soul-Snatching Rabbit that had been standing there and watching the entire time.
"Are you the one talking?" She asked it as she stared straight into it's eyes.
The Rabbit opened it's mouth and a laugh sounded throughout the pocket space. "You are a perceptive lad."
Shen Tianyu sheathed her sword and put her hand behind her head to nonchalantly scratch it. "Well, I've never heard of a Soul-Snatching Rabbit being able to control other demonic beasts with any kind of sound. And they'll never be able to do such a thing no matter how powerful they become. The species has their own limits so no matter how powerful they become there are just some techniques that they can't have and just some species that they can't beat." She furled her whip back onto her belt and folded her arms with a frown on her face. "Well? Are you going to show yourelf?"
The Soul-Snatching Rabbit opened it's mouth again and a large amount of smoky mist flowed out from it. There seemed to be more mist than the small body of the Rabbit could contain. The smoky mist took it's time to form into the shape of another animal.
"A fox, huh? No wonder I couldn't sense anything unusual. And to think it's a Demon Moon Silver Fox to beat. Hah." She sighed in amused defeat. Demonic foxes were always known to be exceptionally good at illusions and hiding their prescences. Of course, that wasn't the only thing they could do, but it was their most recognized ability and their most proficient one. It was more or less an ability they were all born with, no matter the actual clan or species the fox belonged to. Most of the fighting style of fox demonic beasts focused around their abiity to disguise and hide their prescence. Some could control their prescence to the point that even a cultivator would not be able to sense their prescence despite the demonic beast standing right in front of their line of sight. No wonder she couldn't sense anything no matter how much she searched before. Even with her two lifetimes, she definitely couldn't beat a demonic fox in terms of prescence sensing and concealment, the natural born geniuses who could do it even in their sleep.
