Chapter 752: 752 - Worthy battle
"DON’T YOU DARE DISAPPOINT ME!" Bai Hu Lie’s roar tore through the skies as he charged forward, his savage aura ripping through the air like an unbridled storm.
The arena beneath his feet turned to dust in a single instant. Shards of white stone were flung high into the air as the tiger’s mighty body became an indistinct blur, leaving behind only the howl of his passage.
Qingyi didn’t hesitate either, lunging toward Bai Hu Lie with a sharp smile playing on his lips. His fist tore through the air at a terrifying speed, leaving behind a trail of pressure that warped space itself.
The arena was colossal, literally kilometers long, yet the two figures traversed it in the blink of an eye, transforming that vast expanse into a corridor of impending devastation.
The tiger and the young dragon in human form met right at the center of the arena, fists clenched.
The mere displacement of air around their bodies was enough to generate a thunderous explosion, shockwaves sweeping over everything within a radius of hundreds of meters.
When their fists finally collided, the peacock patriarch had to act in a flash, reinforcing the arrays protecting the arena by two hundred percent to keep it from being completely shattered.
Despite all this precaution, the clash of fists still caused considerable destruction.
Beneath their feet, everything turned to dust.
The pressure and heat released by the impact melted the stone like wax, carving open a crater that swallowed ten percent of the arena, its edges still bubbling with molten rock.
"Ah... very good, brother-in-law!" Bai Hu Lie declared through clenched teeth, his arms shaking violently as a searing pain spread through every one of his muscles.
This was a truly worthy opponent, someone who wouldn’t back down a single centimeter in his presence!
Qingyi laughed, spinning his body with fluid elegance. "You’re not half bad yourself, Brother Bai!"
The very moment his voice fell silent, his foot shot forward, burying itself in Bai Hu Lie’s stomach with a brutal thud.
The tiger felt the air violently ripped from his lungs, his jaw snapping open in a harsh growl as his body flew backward like a shot arrow.
He hit the arena floor with a dull thud, his feet sinking into the white stone and tearing through it for another five hundred meters before he finally came to a stop.
"Ah..." The tiger gasped, spitting a trickle of blood from between his sharp teeth, scarlet drops splattering onto his chest.
Indeed, Qingyi was in no way falling behind, and that fact only excited him even more.
He looked up at his brother-in-law, who hovered a few meters above the ground, his eyes filling with pure determination.
It didn’t matter who won in the end; what mattered was the honorable fight they were waging!
With a terrifying roar that made the very sky tremble, Bai Hu Lie spread his arms wide, his muscles swelling with absurd power as a white, divine aura engulfed his entire body.
His eyes shone with a fierce light, and his body grew until it reached three and a half meters in height. The ground cracked into intricate webs merely from the pressure of his aura.
On his back, two shapes began to manifest, resembling ethereal scarves coiled into the form of wings. They glided down his body until they reached his fists, wrapping themselves around them in an embrace of ancient power.
"Is that... the form of the divine tiger? Very well, my boy!" The leader of the Myriad Cosmic Beasts Sect roared with thunderous laughter, realizing that Bai Hu Lie had truly awakened one of the most legendary forms of his ancestral lineage.
If Bai Hu Lie’s father had known that the tiger awakened that form only thanks to the pill Qingyi had given him, he would have been even more shocked.
Qingyi smiled slightly as he observed the form Bai Hu Lie had taken.
That tiger’s lineage was far deeper than he had imagined.
Yes... that would more than make up for the difference in cultivation between them.
Once again, the two charged at each other, but this time they wouldn’t be satisfied with a single strike.
The moment their fists collided in the space between their bodies, both simply vanished from the eyes of most.
Those below the Celestial Ascension Realm, completely bewildered, could only grasp what was happening a full second later.
As if they had exchanged dozens of blows in the blink of an eye, more than seventy explosions erupted all around at once, engulfing everything in a sea of endless devastation.
The air around the arena shook violently, the white rock glowing a fiery red as the two reappeared, panting, on opposite sides of the arena, steam rising from their battered bodies.
Qingyi didn’t hold back for even a single second as he advanced this time.
His fist collided with Bai Hu Lie’s face, and the tiger returned the favor with a straight punch to his stomach.
The thunderous force of the impact made the robes of the many spectators flutter like flags caught in a storm, while the lips of the two fighters parted in roars filled with pure intent to battle.
Both were pushed backward, spitting gushes of blood before charging at each other again, without a moment’s respite.
Was this their glorious battle? Was this their glorious victory?
For the first time in a long while, Qingyi felt he was in a fight in which he could truly die, even if only because he was at a disadvantage for not using the power of his lineage.
This excited him greatly, even though he knew Bai Hu Lie would never actually have the power to kill him.
Qingyi charged forward again, dodging a punch from Bai Hu Lie with fluid grace before grabbing him by the head and slamming him down with all his strength.
Without giving the tiger time to recover, Qingyi dove straight into the crater carved out by Bai Hu Lie’s body, his fist tearing through the air with a sonic boom before slamming with full force into the tiger’s body.
"Very well, brother-in-law, truly worthy of my sister!" Bai Hu Lie roared through clenched teeth as he defended himself with his arms crossed, the impact driving his body even deeper into the arena.
