At that time, although Innate Qi was also a rare commodity, there were strong figures who dominated their territories, yet never saw even a trace of Innate Qi in their entire lives.

But for those possessing the Innate Saint’s Sacred Body, Innate Qi was readily obtainable. It was precisely this advantage that enabled them to emerge triumphant in the formidable era of ancient times, causing all beings to tremble in fear, even...

Comparing the ancient times to now, countless years have passed. Even though I’ve resurrected through special means, my memories remain incredibly vague.

Yet it’s crystal clear to me; compared to ancient times, the Origin Realm now has scarce Spiritual Qi, slow cultivation progress, and perhaps even less Innate Qi.

In such circumstances, for a mere infant to cultivate the Innate Saint’s Sacred Body to its current level...

It must be said, even in ancient times, this would be the domain of emperors.

"This bastard..."

By now, the coldness in the White Tiger’s eyes had long dissipated, replaced with admiration for the young one; these four words carried even more satisfaction.

The White Tiger was very pleased with the power Xu Ran displayed now.

"Only such potential can possess the Innate Saint’s Sacred Body; perhaps this young one might even surpass him..."

Xu Ran looked at the sudden change on the White Tiger’s face, a bit puzzled.

Wasn’t the White Tiger just considering him an enemy? Why the change in expression and attitude now?

The change was faster than a face transformation!

Even though Xu Ran felt a bit confused, he remained highly vigilant, cautiously watching the White Tiger against any unexpected moves.

Indeed.

As Xu Ran watched, the immense tiger paw suddenly relaxed, and the White Tiger Giant Blade abruptly fell towards the ground. Right before hitting the ground, strands of blood-red Evil Qi drifted out from the White Tiger Giant Blade, connecting the white tiger paw and the black-and-white stripes on the body, making the White Tiger Giant Blade continuously bigger. In merely a breath, it expanded to cover hundreds of meters, completely blocking out any light from entering the valley.

Suddenly, a long-lasting aura exclusive to the ancient times started dispersing from the White Tiger’s body.

However, as the White Tiger Giant Blade grew larger, conversely, the White Tiger’s body shrunk from thirty meters to just three meters, although still large compared to Xu Ran, it drastically shrank from what it was.

Its body kept shrinking, and the black-and-white stripes on its body continuously melted away.

Soft feathers, sturdy fur, flesh and blood...

Everything about the White Tiger slowly dissipated until only a skeleton remained in front of Xu Ran.

This skeleton, with its spine connecting every inch of bone throughout the body, was entirely snow-white, identical to the initial White Jade Giant Bone.

Xu Ran stared at the sudden scene with puzzlement, having no clue what happened.

The White Tiger that was so mighty moments ago, why did it transform into bones so suddenly?

Although the occurrence was extremely bizarre, the aura from the White Tiger Giant Blade suspended overhead relentlessly strengthened, for a moment surpassing the aura of the White Tiger during its life, as if inheriting all the intent of the White Tiger before its dispersion, warranting no neglect.

He thought nothing else.

Xu Ran’s eyes turned fierce, fingers gestured fast, and the flying sword above moved with his finger, then decisively pointed towards the White Tiger Giant Blade overhead.

During rapid flight, the sword body kept trembling, seemingly resonating with the air in the valley. Through the nonstop vibrations of the sword body, a lone Immortal Sword instantly multiplied into tens of thousands, shooting towards the White Tiger Giant Blade overhead, producing continuous humming sounds.

"Boom!"

The tens of thousands of Immortal Swords fiercely collided with the White Tiger Giant Blade overhead. Chaotic energy dispersed, making the surrounding air seem cut, two powerful forces created a space collapse, twisting continuously in the valley sky, producing an irresistible suction attempting to devour everything around.

The already shattered mountaintop completely collapsed, countless pieces falling from above, but near the collapsing space, all were pulled in, leaving no trace. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

In merely ten breaths, that mountaintop, enough to reach the clouds, was entirely absorbed.

Upon seeing this, Xu Ran’s Innate Qi automatically surrounded him, forming a barrier that could resist any attack, also ensuring the safety of the Peregrine Falcon nearby.

With the mountaintop fully absorbed, only after consuming an entire mountain did the collapsing space’s appetite get satiated, slowly healing, and the suction vanished instantly.

At this moment.

The tens of thousands of Immortal Swords simultaneously returned to a single sword to break through.

"Buzz!"

The pocket-sized flying sword trembled continuously, its tip exuding surging Innate Qi sword radiance ejecting from the interior like an erupting volcano, all whistling out, like a Milky Way across the starry sky, charging fiercely toward the White Tiger Giant Blade.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Where the white Milky Way passes, space warps again, fearsome ripples causing the world to change color. If any demon beast in the mountains witnessed such terrifying powers colliding, let alone confronting head-on, even the residual waves would be unbearable, leaving no trace of ashes behind.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Like a Milky Way, the sword radiance fiercely attacked a singular point, eventually penetrating an extremely sturdy crack in the White Tiger Giant Blade.

Then, the torrential Innate Qi shot fiercely into the White Tiger Giant Blade through the crack, while the dispersed Innate Qi quickly wrapped around the blade’s exterior, leaving no chance untouched.

"Crack!"

Witnessing such a scene, Xu Ran’s glass-like little hand pointed abruptly forward, and within the White Tiger Giant Blade, the entering Innate Qi swiftly coursed through, visible even from outside as the ever-flowing white light corroded every part inside the White Tiger Giant Blade.

In an instant.

The once canyon-covering White Tiger Giant Blade, resembling its master, contracted quickly, transforming into ordinary size within a blink and fell to the ground, turning into a strand of blood-red Evil Qi dispersing into the valley.

"We won!"

Witnessing this, the Peregrine Falcon in the safe zone immediately let out a cry filled with jubilation, wings excitedly fluttering nonstop, heart celebrating wildly, eyes unable to hide the delight.

Just a moment ago, the clash between blade and sword in the sky was replaying in the Peregrine Falcon’s mind, the residual waves capable of overwhelming it remain echoed in its heart.

Such terrifying aura, in its lifetime, it wouldn’t wish to experience it again.

It should be known.

Watching the battle just now, its mood roller-coastered, violently fluctuating, each plot twist far beyond its expectations.

The White Tiger from ancient times, with countless tactics, if the opponent wasn’t its master Xu Ran, many others would have stumbled countless times.

Yet.

This time, the Peregrine Falcon learned its lesson, not rushing immediately to its master’s side; instead, awaiting instructions from master Xu Ran, despite its excitement.

Currently, Xu Ran had already approached the White Jade Giant Bone, eyes full of countless questions, observing it intently as though searching for the answers he sought.

A strand of Innate Qi drifted from Xu Ran’s body, attaching to the White Jade Giant Bone, but nothing happened.

"It seems, this White Tiger has truly perished this time!"

Xu Ran remarked somewhat regretfully.

After the battle ended, the White Tiger’s words lingered incessantly in his mind, unable to dissipate for a long time.
