Chapter 820 - 818: Ferocity of the Demonic Tiger

Chapter 820: Chapter 818: Ferocity of the Demonic Tiger

Xu Yang neither dodged nor evaded. Situ Ke was his only remaining opponent; the others had lost their combat power and posed no threat.

As for the three who had left, Hong Xiaoxing should be able to hold them off.

Right now, he could only hope that she would.

SWISH!

"Wind Tribulation Tiger Fiend!"

ROAR!

The saber strike burst forth like a demonic tiger released from its cage. The flashing blade light projected the phantom of a demonic tiger, surging with mighty demonic fiend energy and overwhelming slaughtering intent. It blasted forward with the speed of lightning and thunder.

More than half of the seventy-two Lotus Leaf Sword Blades were instantly shattered.

As the residual power of the saber strike closed in, the demonic tiger phantom let out an angry roar, swaying on the verge of collapse.

Xu Yang was secretly shocked. He thought, "What formidable strength."

He swung his saber repeatedly to parry the remaining Lotus Leaf Sword Blades, his body forced back several steps.

Situ Ke and Qingyue were even more astounded.

"Demon Tiger Saber Skill..."

"Could this be what he just comprehended?"

"What kind of monster is he?"

One of them was the number one prodigy of the Ancient Lotus Vajra Sect, and the other was a top-three prodigy of Shanyang Academy. Both were considered breathtakingly talented across the entire Eastern Continent.

Yet this single saber strike contained the momentum of a demonic tiger fiend and the White Tiger Slaughter, channeling the proverb that the fierce wind follows the tiger’s might.

It was truly astonishing.

"The younger generation of the Northern Continent is truly surprising to produce two monsters like you. You have even more potential than Liou Xueyan!

"What a pity that both of you will fall by my hands today!" Situ Ke laughed wildly.

If Liou Xueyan had been in perfect condition, he might not have actually been able to take her down.

And this Xu Yang—if given a little more time, he would become even more terrifying.

To defeat two such prodigies by his own hands...

To sever their path of tempering and contention in the Eastern Continent...

What an absolute honor!

Riding the momentum of defeating these two, both his strength and state of mind would undergo a transformation.

"Xu Yang, you are destined to lose!"

Situ Ke summoned his ancient lotus and charged forward again.

Xu Yang continuously parried.

Relying on his robust Immortal Essence, he engaged Situ Ke in a ceaseless war of attrition.

All he needed to do right now was stall for time until Hong Xiaoxing gained control of the White Tiger Slaughter Map.

Only then would victory be absolutely assured.

RUMBLE!

CLANG!

Deafening explosions rang out as the two fought to a standstill.

Various Divine Techniques and Divine Secret Skills were unleashed all at once.

Qingyue watched, dumbfounded. Faced with such strength, he was absolutely no match. Just the shockwaves of their clash alone made his hair stand on end.

He thought, "He is completely relying on his boundless Immortal Essence to fight Situ Ke... A war of attrition? What grade is his Immortal Foundation? To not show the slightest sign of decline despite such massive consumption!"

On the contrary, Xu Yang fought more courageously as the battle dragged on.

The Immortal Essence he stimulated grew even thicker and more astonishing.

Even though Situ Ke came prepared, he grew increasingly alarmed as time passed.

He thought, "His aura is still climbing? His Immortal Essence attacks are still strengthening? You’ve got to be kidding me."

"Stalling for time?" Situ Ke suddenly realized. He let out a cold laugh and, holding nothing back, drastically intensified his assault.

BOOM!

His entire body expanded, covered in immortal tattoos. Imposing as an enraged Vajra, he threw a punch that shattered the sky.

CRASH!!

The surging Immortal Essence transformed into a raging ocean wave, rolling forward.

BANG!

Situ Ke’s fist pierced through the ethereal ocean, only to be blocked by the Daluo Saber.

The Daluo Saber trembled violently, forcing Xu Yang back several steps.

The immense force left the webbing between his thumb and forefinger numb and his arms shaking.

"Boundless Immortal Essence?

"It’s useless.

"In the face of absolute power, it’s as fragile as paper."

Situ Ke smiled ferociously. His entire body turned dazzlingly golden, and the ancient lotus on his glabella glowed, giving him the solemn and majestic presence of a Vajra deity.

THUMP!

The sound of his beating heart echoed out like a massive, resonant bell, blasting Xu Yang’s mind into a momentary daze.

"Ancient Lotus Vajra Seal!"

Situ Ke roared furiously. He flipped his hand, conjuring a massive seal like a Vajra holding up a mountain. It overturned heaven and earth, crashing down with the terrifying might of the world itself.

The very earth caved in under its pressure.

"Young Master, I can’t hold on anymore."

Yuan Mie’s voice transmission suddenly rang in Xu Yang’s ears.

From behind, Yuan Mie let out a cry of pain. Spitting a spray of blood, he retreated wretchedly until he was standing behind Xu Yang.

The descent of Situ Ke’s seal instantly made his scalp tingle with fear.

Was this a top-tier prodigy of the Eastern Continent?

Yuan Mie’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed hard.

"Leave it to me."

Xu Yang snapped back to attention and shouted coldly.

At this moment, he unsealed his Primordial Spirit without hesitation.

Having been nourished by three strands of Star Flow Divine Silk for over a month, the instant it was completely unsealed, Xu Yang felt his Primordial Spirit swell with power, brimming with unprecedented strength.

"Heaven-Locking Intent!

"Windfall Immortal Expanse!"

Densely packed Heaven-Locking Divine Chains immediately flooded the entire giant crater.

Right after, the Daluo Saber rang out with a loud CLANG. Its brilliant blade light surged like a tide, piercing straight through the rolling demonic fiend energy in the sky as endless saber shadows materialized.

This was the Windfall Immortal Expanse, triggered by the Origin of the Wind.

RUMBLE!!

The cold sneer on Situ Ke’s face froze. The pupils of the attacking Middle Stage of Golden Immortal expert contracted, overcome with creeping terror.

Their lips trembled, though no one could hear what they said.

They were simply seen frozen in place before being engulfed by a heaven-rending, earth-shattering storm of wind and rain.

The instant he finished casting, Xu Yang directly activated two precious elixirs.

His emptied Immortal Foundation recovered thirty percent of its Immortal Essence in the blink of an eye.

"Let’s go," Xu Yang barked at Yuan Mie. Moving like lightning, he arrived in front of Liou Xueyan and grabbed her.

At this moment, Liou Xueyan still had a look of dumbfounded shock plastered across her face.

She never could have imagined that Xu Yang would be this powerful.

SWISH!!

The three of them dashed out of the giant crater.

At the same time, agonizing roars echoed from within the pit.

Situ Ke stumbled out of the storm and fell to one knee. The Vajra immortal tattoos covering his body were riddled with cracks, and he was covered in dense saber gashes. The ancient lotus phantom on his glabella had vanished completely. His aura had plummeted; he was heavily injured.

The other Middle Stage of Golden Immortal expert fared no better.

Locked down by the extreme Heaven-Locking Intent, the two of them had been virtually immobilized at the time.

Even with lightning-fast reflexes, the Windfall Immortal Expanse—empowered by the Origin of the Wind—remained terrifying and overbearing.

"Stop... stop him," Situ Ke gasped, shouting with a trembling voice.

Meeting Xu Yang’s icy gaze, Qingyue was struck with profound terror.

How could he dare to stop him?

Qingyue gulped and subconsciously raised his hands in surrender.

Xu Yang grinned, turned around, and walked away.

"Bastard!

"Xu Yang, Liou Xueyan, I will absolutely not spare you!"

Situ Ke coughed up a mouthful of blood and struggled to his feet. The agonizing pain wracking his body pushed him to the brink of collapse as he roared in absolute fury.

He could not accept this outcome.

To be defeated by a Middle Stage of Celestial Immortal, and one from the Northern Continent at that!

If word of this got out, it would be an unimaginable humiliation!

However, no matter how unwilling or enraged he was at this moment, he simply lacked the strength to stop them.

Suddenly, SWISH! SWISH! Two figures tore through the demonic fiend energy and appeared in front of them.

Xu Yang’s footsteps halted, his expression instantly turning exceptionally ugly.

"Damn it!" Yuan Mie could not help but curse out loud.

These two were impressively two of the three who had left earlier.

One was at the Middle Stage of Golden Immortal, and the other at the Early Stage of Golden Immortal.

The demonic tiger continued to roar, and the fierce battle raged on.

How did two of them make it back?

Hong Xiaoxing...

Xu Yang gritted his teeth.

"W-what’s going on here?" The two returning experts were dumbfounded by the sight before them.

"Quick, stop them!" Situ Ke, on the other hand, was overjoyed. It was a sudden light at the end of the tunnel; he was so thrilled he could practically jump. "Stop these three Northern Continent pieces of trash!"

Unable to ask further questions, the two experts didn’t hesitate to take up their combat stances.

"Young Master, what do we do? I don’t have much strength left," Yuan Mie smiled bitterly, feeling thoroughly demoralized.

In his current state, he could barely handle the Early Stage of Golden Immortal expert, and even then, he wasn’t guaranteed to win.

Biting her lip, Liou Xueyan completely ignored the blood dripping from her body and muttered, "Do you have any more trump cards?"

"Trump cards? Of course I do.

"However..."

Xu Yang revealed a bitter smile.

To be honest, he actually had quite a few trump cards left.

The Star Fury Elixir would instantly skyrocket his combat power by a whole tier upon consumption.

He also had two Celestial Spirit Earth Demon Poison Elixirs, both of which were Rank Three.

"However, given our current condition, the trouble that follows using them won’t be small either."

He wasn’t in good shape right now. The Star Fury Elixir would drastically boost his strength, but he would be extremely weak afterward and unable to recover in the short term.

And Xue Ze was still hiding in the shadows.

As for the two poison elixirs, he only had enough Antidote Pills for himself.

Although the poison elixirs were astounding, their main advantage was their wide area of effect. They posed a significant threat to an Early Stage of Golden Immortal, but against a Middle Stage of Golden Immortal, that wasn’t necessarily the case.

"Attack!" Situ Ke bellowed.

Xu Yang smiled helplessly. "I have no choice but to use them."

Just then, the demonic tiger’s roars came to an abrupt halt.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The entire area within the White Tiger Slaughter Map suddenly began to tremble violently. The space violently distorted, and the demonic fiend energy surged and gathered from the edges. It looked as if it was about to tear the space apart and forcibly merge into the demonic tiger.

In the distance, a sudden, miserable scream rang out.

"Damn it!" The expressions of the two Golden Immortals drastically changed as they came to a sudden halt.

That voice belonged to their companion, the other Middle Stage of Golden Immortal expert.

"Could it be that she’s gained complete control?

"Hong Xiaoxing!!"
