Chapter 529: Replaced

The White Tiger Emperor’s body was involuntarily being pulled towards Zhang Mu.

He looked extremely angry, completely lacking his usual calmness, and shouted at Zhang Mu, “What did you do to me? Stop this damn power!”

He seemed to guess what this irresistible summoning force was, but accepting the possibility that Zhang Mu was part of his mother’s body was difficult for him.

But Zhang Mu was also puzzled, feeling the power from his body.

The only explanation is the Blood Lotus.

Seeing the White Tiger Emperor’s appearance, Zhang Mu suddenly remembered the crystalline body in his own body, and the memory of seeing that body being swallowed by the White Tiger Emperor became very clear.

Is the Blood Lotus calling out a part of him?

Luo Wanxun and Qing Ling next to them slowly woke up. Their bodies seemed special, just slightly slower than the strong fourth-rank experts.

Especially Qing Ling, she could actually break free from Temporal Confinement with the strength of a peak third-rank, which was incredible.

It’s worth noting that the early fourth-rank experts who had not yet touched on the field were still suppressed within that moment of time and unable to break free, but Qing Ling and Luo Wanxun managed to do so.

Everyone present realized something was off between Zhang Mu and the White Tiger Emperor, constantly looking between the two, especially since the White Tiger Emperor’s identity had not been revealed yet, making everything very strange.

“White Tiger, what are you up to?”

Unable to hold back anymore, the Azure Dragon Emperor, the attacks of the ghost warriors stopped because of their unusual behavior, while the White Tiger Emperor’s body continued to struggle towards Zhang Mu’s position but was powerless to resist.

The White Tiger Emperor couldn’t reveal this secret, so with a flash of green in his eyes, he quickly said, “I don’t know what dark magic this kid used! This power seems to be trying to consume me, and the air still carries the scent of that woman, Vaidehi. It’s hard to tell if they both set this up!”

The White Tiger Emperor looked extremely anxious, realizing the suction force was getting stronger, and if it continued, he might end up completely absorbed by Zhang Mu, as he suspected.

Seeing the Azure Dragon Emperor still not moving, the White Tiger Emperor, in desperation, said, “What are you standing there for? Control my body, save me!”

The Azure Dragon Emperor now fully understood how miserable the White Tiger Emperor’s situation was. He quickly used his demon tail to tie up the constantly being dragged White Tiger Emperor.

Under the call of the Blood Lotus, this self-generated consciousness of its sub-body had no strength to resist at all, but at least it had stopped its movement.

What made the White Tiger Emperor uncomfortable was the pressure coming from a higher rank.

His fourth-rank domain power was completely ineffective, and a ridiculous thought arose in his mind as time passed.

He wanted to go back!

How is this possible! How could I have such thoughts?

This was the moment his will instantly resisted when he had the thought of returning.

The current thoughts of the White Tiger Emperor were entangled with the Blood Lotus Seed and the memories of the White Tiger Emperor. It craved freedom and absolute power, otherwise, it wouldn’t have taken over like this. It found even the White Tiger Emperor’s suppression uncomfortable and didn’t even give him a chance to coexist, just forcefully devouring him.

What it wanted was freedom. Even if it was the mother’s call, there was absolutely no way it would go back!

The White Tiger Emperor looked at Zhang Mu with hatred in his eyes. He knew that once in power, his own will would be completely erased, and he also knew what the mother body had left inside him.

He was not willing to accept this!

He finally broke free from the White Tiger Emperor’s restraint. Pretending to be scorched by his flames, he had secretly been storing his strength. When the White Tiger Emperor let his guard down, he gave the Beastman, who was trying to absorb his power, a painful lesson.

First control the body, then entangle the soul!

The Azure Dragon Emperor’s demonic body was incredibly strong. Despite Zhang Mu’s Blood Lotus inside him calling out continuously, the Azure Dragon Emperor firmly held him back, not allowing a single step in that direction.

Zhang Mu felt the Blood Lotus’s anxiety for the first time. At this moment, the Blood Lotus began to indiscriminately plunder the surrounding energy like an endless black hole.

The power brought by the ghost general from the Netherworld, the residual spatial power of Queen Vaidehi in the air, various miscellaneous energies, it absorbed all of them without discrimination.

This time, the Blood Lotus sprouted from Zhang Mu’s limbs and body. He was completely surrounded by the Blood Lotus, turning into a humanoid monster covered in vines.

On the vines, various colors of light flickered, all energies devoured by the hungry Blood Lotus. Zhang Mu was now almost losing control of his body.

He felt the will of the Blood Lotus, it wanted to come back to life!

With full force, the energy that was swallowed just now started to get absorbed. The long silent Blood Lotus couldn’t wait any longer, it found its offspring and must take this chance to come back to life.

The scattered power turned into pure energy, boosting the strength of the Blood Lotus. The attraction to the White Tiger Emperor was growing stronger. Everything the Blood Lotus did was to prepare for summoning back its offspring.

The eyes of the White Tiger Emperor were trembling, he couldn’t even think of escaping now. When the Azure Dragon Emperor asked for his opinion earlier, he remained silent.

He realized that if he completely escaped the attraction of that person, it would cause him great damage.

Can’t leave!

Does that mean being completely swallowed alive?

Absolutely impossible!

Suddenly, a hint of madness flashed in the eyes of the White Tiger Emperor as he saw Zhang Mu’s covered face.

Since you want my power so much, you must be very weak.

In the White Tiger Emperor’s mind, Zhang Mu is seen as just a shell for him to inhabit temporarily, both depending on others’ bodies to survive.

If you can’t escape, then let’s fight. Who says offspring can’t replace the parent!

The White Tiger Emperor’s heart burned with excitement, as his original body was absorbed in gathering surrounding energy without any care, making it the perfect time for him to strike!

If he could successfully take over the body, then… the White Tiger Emperor’s eyes gleamed at the thought, turning to the Azure Dragon Emperor and saying, “Old Snake, help me severely injure that boy. In this state, I can naturally recover and consume the powers in his body that pose a threat to me.”

The Azure Dragon Emperor had been observing the movements of the Ghost General, but he noticed that since Zhang Mu revealed that power, the Ghost General had not made any moves. Hearing the White Tiger Emperor’s words, a hint of a warlike glint appeared in his eyes.

“I’ve been waiting for you to say that for a long time. This boy made me deplete my original dragon energy, I will not let him go!”

“Roar!”

A completely transformed beastly roar resounded, as the Azure Dragon Emperor entwined the White Tiger Emperor with his dragon tail, even his head restored to its original fierce dragon appearance. The enormous monstrous body charged directly at Zhang Mu!
