Chapter 351: Fierce Battle Against White Tiger

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

White Tiger is a tall and brawny man.

Going by visuals, he must have been a meter and a half tall, with a giant-like threatening stature.

What surprised Zhou Bao most was his outfit, he was in modern dress with broad-sleeved robes and sported a buzz cut. He gave the impression of being very rigid and powerful.

“After hearing what Mock Moon Immortal said, White Tiger’s expression grew colder. “As long as you heed the warning. You’re not welcome here. Leave now!”

As the leader of the Immortal Palace of Penglai, his relationship with the Divine Wind Palace was not harmonious. Looking at the angry faces of the four people, he ordered the visitor to leave.

Zhou Bao squinted his eyes, he had never felt easy in his company. In any case, this was his territory, yet this scoundrel had arrived with an air of proprietary, as if he owned the place.

“You’re Zhou Bao?”

White Tiger did not wait for Zhou Bao’s, and appeared in front of him in a flash.

“That’s right, I am indeed Zhou Bao!” He snarled, feeling the pressure of White Tiger’s energy pressing against his body.

Ordinary Individual Immortals may have turned pale in response, however, Zhou Bao was unfazed. The fringes of his garment remain unruffled.

“His lip curled as he said with a snicker, “Ah, the mighty White Tiger! I was not aware that you had come all the way from Panglai to the Central Mainland. Are you here on official business?”

“Don’t act coy, Zhou Bao. There must be some reason for my coming to see you. Send those four away first!”

“They are my guests. You will have to await your turn. I will not send them away just because you are here. If you have any business with me, White Tiger, I must ask you to wait until my discussions with them are done.”

Zhou Bao stated leisurely.

“Is that so?” Seeing Zhou Bao’s nonchalance when facing extreme pressure, White Tiger scoffed. “Little scamp, don’t think that because you are young and lucky, you can be so disrespectful. If I want them to leave, nothing you say will make any difference.”

“But this is my territory. If I want them to stay, it is also not Your Excellency’s place to say anything.” Zhou Bao remained adamant and his face was inscrutable.

This White Tiger must be very strong to have been sent to the domain of the Divine Wind Palace and having earned such a reputation. Zhou Bao admired that and had heard of some of his accomplishments in Penglai. He reflected on his total inability to achieve such a thing himself.

Admiration was one thing, but so what if he didn’t have Bai Hu’s abilities, so what if he had done great things for the Immortal Palace?

Why should I give a damn!

If you want to be arrogant, go to Penglai and do it, no need to come here and show it, you damn fraud!

Mock Moon Immortal and his company had wanted to leave when they saw White Tiger. But upon hearing Zhou Bao’s words, they exchanged glances and stayed where they were.

“What an opportunity!”

If Zhou Bao were to have a confrontation with White Tiger, then he might be estranged from the Immortal Palace and so would naturally gravitate towards Divine Wind Palace. The Immortal Palace has sent him here to create trouble in Penglai, so we will do the same in the Central Mainland and give you a taste of your own medicine. If the four of us were to leave there’s no telling if the confrontation will take place.

Thinking through the situation, they didn’t leave.

“It looks like you are intent on making life difficult for me, little man!” White Tiger was a straightforward person and seeing the situation, he didn’t want to waste his time. He reached out and grabbed Zhou Bao.

“I will see today just where you get the courage to be so reckless in front of me.”

“If you engage in a fight with me, you will be violating the Law of Heaven. The Individual Immortals of Divine Wind Palace are watching!” Zhou Bao laughed, as he patiently awaited for the attack.

Then White Tiger’s look changed.

It was true, Zhou Bao had not yet reached the Mysterious Realm. He was considered a mortal still and was not ranked with the sages like White Tiger, thus, he could not engage him in battle without violating the Law of Heaven.

White Tiger paused briefly, snapped his fingers and grabbed Zhou Bao.

“I’m afraid the Law of Heaven is a just a joke. If I kill you today, let’s see if Divine Wind Palace will give me any problems with it!” White Tiger snickered, unleashed the power from his hand which immediately enclosed Zhou Bao in a frozen circle, wrapping around his body and trapping him, as if he were in a cage.

“Damn, this bastard is even more arrogant than I am!” Zhou Bao muttered. A beam of golden light emerged from the back of his head and formed a circle that shattered the frozen space. His form then disappeared.

His fist intent instantly enveloped the room.

Boom!

Zhou Bao threw a punch, but missed, and the terrible fist intent immediately made the four Individual Immortals turn pale.

“What a strong fist intent!”

“What an amazing fist intent!”

“Yes. It was amazingly strong!”

That was how the four Immortals and White Tiger assessed Zhou Bao’s fist intent.

Although it had not occurred to them to get involved in the conflict, the four Immortals were now without a doubt completely embroiled in the immensity of Zhou Bao’s fist intent.

The fist intent was immense and in the blink of an eye, the world had changed.

“This…” Being the first target of Zhou Bao’s fist, White Tiger’s reaction was naturally the most revealing.

His thoughts switched between listening to his warning intuition, escape or get involved in the terrible combat.

Great changes had occurred so rapidly.

He seemed to be enclosed within an endless vaccuum, being a mere speck of dust. Zhou Bao had disappeared, and taking his place, a black sun was rising in the sky.

A black sun rising!

What fist intent is this? White Tiger let out a low grunt and knew he had to keep his senses on full alert. White Gang Qi came flowing out and suddenly a gigantic shadow of a white tiger lunged toward the black sun.

He knew that Zhou Bao’s body must be there!

“White Tiger Gang Qi!” Zhou Bao smiled when he saw the Gang Qi appear. Its simple name belied it power. Once he took on his form, he emerged with a fury, and even shook Zhou Bao’s fist intent space.

Yes, fist intent space!

Zhou Bao had already completely fused his own fist intent with his space division skills into a unique powerhouse. When unleashed, he could send his opponent into a different space era. This merely transported them into another dimension, but did not increase the strength of his punches, but the combination nevertheless greatly enhanced the power of his fist intent.

Seeing the boundless strength of the huge white tiger as he came charging, Zhou Bao merely smiled. It did not even seem to be of much concern to him.

“What? No!”

White Tiger attacked, using his fists furiously, with his boundless Gang spread towards the black sun. Before reaching it, it was sucked away by a giant force.

In front of the black sun there was an invisible black hole.

Yes, black holes are always invisible.

Before the poor white tiger could reach its intended destination, it was swallowed up by the black hole.

Afterwards, a huge engulfing force began to permeate through the entire fist intent space.

White Tiger was astounded. He had never thought he would encounter such a thing!

He was familiar with Zhou Bao’s abilities, so he knew that Zhou Bao’s greatest skill was in his punches and that he had a strong fist intent.

But all along his impression was that Zhao Bao was at best an upstart. He had suddenly inherited the teachings of an ancient master, came by a bit of good fortune and grown quite strong, but there were limitations to how far one can perfect one’ skills. Especially for the fist intent skill, which required decades or even centuries of constant training in order to attain perfection. He was an excellent example of this cultivation.

Because, it seemed to him, Zhou Bao’s Pure Yang Celestial Device and some inexplicable Divine Sense were all he had that made him seem invulnerable.

These things may appear as such in the Mysterious Realm, but if they were to face him, the strongest of the Mysterious Realm, it would be different.

He had not expected that Zhou Bao could an even match for him without the help of any magical powers.

And all the powers he unleashed were so unexpected and came as a total surprise.

Bang, bang, bang!

White Tiger attacked five times and was repelled equally by Zhou Bao. All of his attacks were sucked up by the black hole, all the while being repulsed by Zhou Bao’s counter attack.

Strong. Very strong!

This is clearly a case of pitting strength against strength.

The third attack came and Zhou Bao’s space of segmented realms had been shattered by the two men.

The four Individual Immortals were driven back step by step during the battle and could only get a firm footing after some time.

White Tiger took five paces back. His face was pale. “Good skills, good punches!”

“You can’t take it!” Zhou Bao smiled, his pulse racing. That damn White Tiger is stronger than I realized. I’ve used Heavenly Jade Technique and Snake-like Breath Holding, and the third punch was a crucial hit, the separate realm space was even shattered, but he hadn’t even seriously injured him. No wonder he was able to gain a foothold in Panglai.

“White Tiger is indeed a white tiger and so very strong. However, one simply cannot have fake skills here!” Zhou Bao laughed aloud, and with a wave of his hands, he issued forth an invisible force using only the least effort, yet it had a invincible gravity that enveloped everyone.

“Come back, boy!” White Tiger had exchanged five fists punches with Zhou Bao, and although it had not yielded any results, he had exposed his wild nature, all the while, snarling and leaping and his white Gang Qi had roared forth like a river in full flood.

“I don’t have time to play games with you!” Zhou Bao sneered, threw a punch and vanished from the sight of the five people.

His space had been ruined but his skills were still excellent!

When White Tiger leapt up, he felt that something was not right. Even though the gravity around him was not very strong, it permeated the air, and a force from nowhere seemed to be restraining his fists.

In the martial arts world, the loss of an inch equates to the loss of a mile.

Since he was restrained, he was unable to unleash all his powers, which White Tiger understood. He gave a shout and his white Gang merged into a powerful river. Gushing on with a whistling sound, it broke apart Zhou Bao’s force field.

And returned to the dazzling black sun.

Boom!

The white river came in ultra layers and was filled with boundless energy. Even though the black hole was swallowing things up, it was only an illusion. It was only a virtual product of Zhou Bao’s creation, and it broke apart as Zhou Bao had exceeded the limit of its powers already. The river resembled a maelstrom, surging towards the black sun.

“It’s good!” Zhou Bao said. Suddenly a dark shadow on the river.

This time, it was not a black hole but a whole planet.

Boom! The power of the two forces collided with such a terrible impact that the earth shook.

Zhou Bao’s fist intent was shattered in the collision and dispersed. His face was pale as his form retreated.

The area around the two was razed to the ground within a ten thousand foot radius. Zhou Bao realized he should be more wary and shifted his separate space to the foot of Jilei Mountain. Otherwise, the battle between them would destroy the greater part of Wuyang. Probably no survivors would be left at the newly completed Lord Mansion.

“You fool, how dare you cause such an upheaval in my territory!” Surveying the scene before him, Zhou Bao let loose the total force of his actual powers, without regard for anything. Raising both hands, his light golden Gang flowed in a circle and combining together with nine beams of light gathered into one solid beam of golden light that turned into an egg-shaped hood that came down straight over White Tiger’s head.

Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield!

Since Zhou Bao had soaked in the Pure Yang Water, the power of his Nine Dragon Heavenly Fire Shield had increased tens of times over in power, but its appearance was rather strange.

On the other hand, White Tiger was not doing well. However, since he had come so far, there was no point in giving up now. As soon as he saw Zhou Bao’s fire shield coming over him, he refused to yield. His Gang began vibrating fiercely and he issued forth a blood-curdling, shrill roar. Zhou Bao’s fire shield was blocked by his shrieks just as it was about to come down on his head. The intensity of the sound waves had defeated the Nine Dragon Heavenly Fire Shield.

“What was all that roaring about?”

Zhou Bao’s face fell, and he lifted his hand. A ball of light golden fire shot out towards White Tiger’s Gang.

Great Fusion Technic!

“What! The look on White Tiger’s face changed and he grunted with the effort. The Great Fusion Technic came as a sudden move and was so powerful that it had even blasted away his Gang. The shrieking stopped abruptly and White Tiger lost his ability to hold off the fire around his head and it came down over him.

BOOM!

The fire shield was translucent and as it covered his head, the demonic fire inside smouldered as its flames were directed at him.

White Tiger had been too careless and Zhou Bao’s fire had engulfed him. But he did not panic. A white mist of light appeared and shielded his body from the blazing flames.

The four Individual Immortals from the Divine Wind Palace were all looking on.

Is this for real? Am I dreaming?

Someone had actually sparred with White Tiger and had not been totally defeated. Besides that, he had also revealed the power of his Gang and Divine Sense, and kept White Tiger on the defensive with no chance to counter. Was this scoundrel’s skills really at level nine only?

Even though he had considerable skills, everyone already knew that he was also a trouble maker, his reputation had already preceded him.

“Roar!”

Zhou Bao had engulfed White Tiger with Nine Dragons Heavenly Shield, but it was only an instant later that his swirling white light mist resurfaced as he gave a mighty roar. He turned into a beam of white light and aimed himself at Zhou Bao.

“Not bad!” Zhou Bao muttered, loosening his muscles and carried on.

Bang, bang, bang!

Boom, boom, boom!

The two were in close combat, but hearing the blows resounding like thunder, the enormous explosions of Qi, the four Immortals who were in the vicinity, recoiled. None were willing to expose themselves to all the flying qi. As for Jiang Xiao and the others, they were already unconscious, knocked out from the impact. Mock Moon Immortal fearfully dragged them away as he retreated from the battle scene.

The forms of the two fighters could no longer be distinguished, all the Immortals could see were beams of white and golden lights and a beam of light golden light colliding into each other. They were also unclear as to who was having the upper hand.

“This is great little boy, how lovely to be able to do battle with you! Haha!”

A burst of fanatical laughter came from within the battle grounds. It was White Tiger yelling loudly in the heat of battle. “Little boy, I have yet to meet a foe who could be my rival in these past few decades. You really are something, boy, haha!”

Zhou Bao laughed to himself. His skills were not bad, actually, they were excellent. But, in such close combat, whether in terms of the will to fight or grasp of strategy, or adapting to the unexpected, he must admit that he paled in comparison to White Tiger.

This scoundrel’s has skill but no fighting plans at all. He fights likely invincible, his strategy of attacking is not to have any specific moves.

Zhou Bao had merged his most powerful techniques, the Thirteen Punches of Desolation and Tai Chi Fist into one consolidated fighting style. There were laws for the use of techniques, much like the rotation of the stars in the sky are driven by the great ways. But he seemed unable to keep White Tiger’s attacks at bay. Ultimately he could only defend his home turf. Using Tai Chi’s soft motions and entanglement to the best of his ability was the only way to avoid a huge defeat.

“You have good skills, boy. It’s a shame you don’t have much experience in engaging in battles. You must have only ever used your cultivation and celestial devices to bully others!” White Tiger was fighting as fervently as ever, and had already experienced all of Zhou Bao’s techniques. He began to relax.

“What if I did!” Zhou Bao felt his chest constricting. He felt extremely uncomfortable and his voice revealed his discomfort. “I have so many magic weapons, such powerful skills, what do you care? Hmph!”

He grunted!

While he was talking, White Tiger saw his opportunity. He threw a fist and grazed his shoulder, breaking his Protective Gang Qi with a solid steel thrust and struck his body.

Recoiling in intense pain, Zhou Bao activated the Three Realms Division. Within moments, he was transported from the battle scene. He raised his hands and let forth two Great Fusion Technics and one Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword.

“Too many complicated tricks is not necessarily a good thing!” After suffering the Great Fusion Technique, White Tiger was prepared. After a few flashes , his form became charged like lightning. “If you had concentrated on the method of the fist power, maybe you would not be humiliated today.”

“How I proceed is no concern of yours!” Zhou Bao laughed coldly, his body glistening in the light, and he moved forward to challenge him. “I want to see if your fists are stronger than my magic weapon!” Bang!

White Tiger’s fists swept through the air. Zhou Bao dodged and hit out. His energy was not totally spent yet. He hit the ground with a huge bang and left a large crater. At the same time a thin cyan mist suddenly appeared and spread around Zhou Bao’s body.

“What? What is this?” White Tiger said, feeling confused. The mist was all around him, its soft layers fell around him like a veil, and gave him a very uneasy feeling.

Without thinking, he drew back as his Gang Qi emerged and formed into a white tiger phantom, charging at Zhou Bao, and disappeared into the mist.

The mist gave out ripples which enveloped White Tiger in soft layers. The phantom had yet to charge a few steps in the mist, when he suddenly disappeared, leaving just a trace of dim pink light.

“Peach Blossom Miasma!”

White Tiger’s eyeballs were about to pop out of his face. How did this scoundrel happen to have such a sinister weapon? You should know, the Peach Blossom Miasma does not just dissolve a person’s Gang Qi, it causes harm to the actual essence as well.

White Tiger’s Gang, although powerful, was swept away by the miasma and disappeared in a few breaths.

“This miasma is really amazing. If I suck it up with my black hole, the black hole will be able to swallow things and gain even greater power!”

Fist intent has an air of mystery about it, but is actually an instantiation the ways of combat. For example, Zhou Bao’s black hole represents the ability to absorb and transform the opponent’s energy. The fist intent is just to push Zhou Bao’s powers of absorption to the limit.

Another example is the planets within Zhou Bao’s fist intent. They were just his fists, but within his fist intent, they were at their strongest, having the power to overturn and destroy anything.

If the Peach Blossom Miasma was merged into his black hole, it would not only be able to absorb regular powers but it can also absorb real essence. Its threat would be much greater.

Zhou Bao wondered how he could use the black hole against the miasma. On the other hand, the look on White Tiger’s face was uncertain. Zhou Bao was too strong, this simply could not be the cultivation level of a twenty year old kid.

The bystanders were thoroughly impressed by Zhou Bao .

But he was not a bystander, he was White Tiger. One of the figures of the Immortal Palace. His thoughts were different from normal people.

It was not normal for someone who was not even twenty yet to possess this kind of power, in fact it was extremely abnormal.

Even if he had the reputation of that of a legendary trouble maker, it was still not normal.

White Tiger was also a trouble maker in his day, but he had his limits. When he was cultivating level nine, however, his combat ability was equal to an Individual Immortal in the blood-changing phase. But, now his cultivation was at the peak of the Marrow Cleansing Realm. His true strength would have been like that of a Genuine Immortal for quite some time if he hadn’t been suppressing the accumulation, and preparing for a one-time try at the sixth Thunder Tribulation. If he had achieved a golden body, he would have passed long ago.

That being so, his own combat ability was still like that of a first Thunder Tribulation Genuine Immortal like Taihai Sage and was more like a level two Venerable One.

This kind of power had been on the same level with that of a Level Nine Expert.

He still hadn’t played his last card, but neither had Zhou Bao!

So, this was definitely not normal!
