Chapter 497: Fierce Battle with the White Tiger

The ground was collapsing, and the Small World trembled.

Lu Ye unleashed his most terrifying power, relentlessly striking and shattering the White Tiger’s strength, crashing it into the tiger’s claws bit by bit.

In a flash, dozens of seconds passed.

The White Tiger’s claws were brutally smashed apart, and its powerful forelimbs were breaking too.

Lu Ye’s fists were like the most merciless and unyielding force, annihilating everything before him with a devastating flair.

The White Tiger was genuinely shocked.

So strong!

So terrifying!

Mind you, this was the same state it had showcased back in the Void Realm, its strongest form.

Yet here it was, and it couldn’t hold the line.

Even though it was one of the Four Spirits of Heaven, and born with a mighty physique and True Essence of the Four Spirits…

But in front of the current Lu Ye, it simply wasn’t enough!

Not nearly enough!

The White Tiger was mercilessly smashed, turned into a mist of blood.

Lu Ye could finally feel a hint of satisfaction.

This White Tiger was really something!

A new White Tiger appeared, its gaze towards Lu Ye now serious.

“You’ve actually become this strong?” the White Tiger growled.

The White Tiger could hardly accept it, that someone, despite being a whole realm lower, could force it into a meat paste with just fists while it was fully resisting.

“Is this a pass?”

Lu Ye asked.

The White Tiger nodded, “Yes, but also no. I want to see your limits!”

Then, the White Tiger’s aura began to surge wildly, jumping straight from the Void Realm to the Shattering Realm.

Its fur stood on end like steel needles.

The Shattering Realm—a realm where destructive power skyrockets—the White Tiger already represented destruction, and having reached this realm, its strength became even more terrifying!

However, this action raised the attention of the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens.

The imposing figure of the Great Sage appeared in the Eighth Heaven, fixing its gaze directly on the White Tiger’s true form.

At that moment, an intense sense of crisis surged within the White Tiger.

Under the impassive stare of the Great Sage, even the White Tiger felt a chill, its sense of danger peaking.

Yet at this time, the power of the Four Spirits of Heaven erupted, seemingly trying to curry favor with the Great Sage, merging into its laws and supplementing them with energy.

The Great Sage’s detached expression finally softened slightly, but it continued to eye the White Tiger.

The White Tiger could unleash its Shattering Realm strength amidst the Four Spirits’ power, but stepping out of it? That would be a whole different ballgame.

Seeing that the Great Sage didn’t take further action, the White Tiger’s tense mood relaxed a tad, though it still felt a bit uneasy.

“White Tiger, what are you doing?” Xuanwu asked.

“Ran into a tough nut; couldn’t beat him back in the Void Realm, couldn’t help but ascend to the Shattering Realm,” the White Tiger replied.

“Is it the reincarnation of the Nine Lives Celestial Lord?”

“Yep, that’s her! She’s only in the Xumi Realm and can still smash the Void-realm me into bits. So terrifying!”

Xuanwu couldn’t help but marvel.

“So strong…”

“I don’t believe that my Shattering Realm self can’t beat him!”

“Let’s not make enemies; we might have to fight side by side in the future,” Xuanwu advised.

“It’s just a scrap!”

In the Small World, the White Tiger moved.

Lu Ye was bubbling with excitement.

His right hand exploded with brilliant light, which rapidly spread across his whole body.

Shattering Realm, huh?

Come on!

Boom!

A massive booming noise echoed. Lu Ye distinctly felt a domineering destructive force rapidly dissipating his Primordial Force, akin to a terrifying tsunami rushing toward him.

But Lu Ye’s Primordial Force was at the Quasi-Emperor level—what if the White Tiger’s destructive power was strong? Even if there was an overwhelming amount of destructive power, so what?

The Primordial Force surged wildly, crashing head-on against the destruction.

Both man and tiger were sent flying backward.

The White Tiger felt a tingling in its paws, with what seemed like flames beginning to emerge in its chest.

No way?

The moment both of them came to a halt, they both gathered their strength and charged at each other again, colliding violently.

This was a pure and perilous clash of strength, containing terrifying power; should either side falter, that force would gush in like a wave, utterly obliterating the opponent.

They exchanged no nonsense, no flashy moves.

They both understood there was no need for theatrics; one was an Emperor of the Age, while the other was a reincarnated Celestial Lord, both had long since perfected their combat techniques.

This was the most primal clash, the most effective assessment of strength.

Of course, there was another way of determining victory or defeat—by unleashing divine techniques.

The White Tiger’s divine abilities facing the Celestial Lord’s laws would be a whole different kind of battle, and both sides were quite fond of this mode of combat.

Boom boom boom!

The entire Small World was turned upside down; other White Tigers from the adjacent realms hardly paid attention, pouring all their battle focus onto Lu Ye.

In the blink of an eye, countless punches seemed to fly by.

The White Tiger’s paws could no longer withstand it and exploded again.

Lu Ye’s expression didn’t even change.

This was exhilarating!

This kind of visceral fighting was absolutely thrilling.

Now at this level, fighting a Shattering Realm White Tiger was no problem at all—who’s next?

The White Tiger’s eyes were wild with madness.

It was being torn apart by the terrifying Primordial Force, its destructive power failing to break through Lu Ye’s arms and flow into him.

The White Tiger couldn’t fathom how Lu Ye managed to train his arms to this level back in the Xumi Realm.

So strong.

Once again, the White Tiger was sent flying, spewing blood, staining its fur even more ferociously.

It let out a roaring scream, opening its massive maw, a stunningly brilliant white light gathering within.

Seeing this, Lu Ye instinctively clenched his fists.

His arms rapidly turned crimson.

Wait, no need for the Celestial Lord Fist!

A Stone Sword appeared in Lu Ye’s hand.

All this time cultivating the Sword Technique, it was finally time to give it a spin!

The Stone Sword hummed with power, exuding an overwhelming aura.

Supreme sword intent surged forth, manifesting countless sharp rays across the heavens, even the wind seemed razor-sharp.

The White Tiger’s fur rippled, as countless energies surged into its mouth, converging upon that orb of light.

“Boom!”

Blinding white light lit up the entire Small World, rampaging toward Lu Ye.

Lu Ye’s eyes flashed brightly; taking a step forward.

His Stone Sword swung down diagonally.

An ear-splitting boom erupted as the terrifying sword light hacked straight through the beam of light.

“Boom!”

Everything was in ruin, everything was exploding.
