Eternal vanity
Chapter 35
Roar!
The white tiger roared into the sky. A gust of wind swept over, toppling the trees and creating a mess.
Qiao Li stopped acting like an idiot, and a trace of seriousness finally appeared on his face.
Flaming wings, snow-white fur, a high-level exotic beast — Flaming White Tiger!
The white tiger stared at Qiao Qiao, who was retreating step by step cautiously. It roared again, baring its long fangs, glowing with a bloodthirsty luster. It pounced on Qiao Qiao like a flash of lightning.
Qiao Qiao's body trembled. A bluish purple light suddenly covered his body. A sudden clap of thunder and lightning left dozens of bloody marks on the white tiger's smooth fur.
The white tiger roared in pain. It didn't slow down at all. Its sharp claws brushed past Qiao Qiao's shoulder, but it mercilessly left three bloody wounds. It opened its mouth wide and pounced on Qiao Qiao.
"Bastard!" Qiao Qiao cursed. He was in extreme pain.
This beast!
"Let's go!" Bai Chen roared. He pulled Wang Yuan up from the ground and turned to run.
A high-level exotic beast could even fight against a Divine Emperor expert, let alone a first-grade God Master like him!
Qiao Qiao kicked the white tiger's claws. He flew out and landed beside Bai Chen. He covered the wound on his shoulder and ran.
The wings on the white tiger's back suddenly shone brightly. The blazing fire covered the sky. The poisonous centipedes in the distance also screamed and ran away from the blazing fire.
The road ahead was blocked by the fire. Bai Chen gritted his teeth and turned around. His eyes were fierce.
Damn it. It seemed that he could only fight it head-on. But his cultivation was too low. He might not even be able to get close to the white tiger, let alone kill it!
It was impossible to escape. Qiao Qiao was injured, and Wang Yuan's cultivation was even lower. Damn it!
Bai Chen released his Origin Energy to block the flames that filled the sky, but there were already quite a few burn wounds on his body. The heart-wrenching pain caused Bai Chen to become even calmer. His mind spun rapidly, and thousands or even tens of thousands of plans flashed through his mind, but they were immediately rejected.
Wang Yuan, who was standing at the side, resisted the fire bitterly. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but a hint of joy appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Finally … it's finally here!
My acting for so long was worth it.
Bai Chen and Qiao didn't notice.
At this moment, the white tiger stopped accumulating power. It was mixed with the fire....
"Boss, be careful!"
Qiao Li's body was covered in dazzling blue-purple lightning. He flew forward and clashed with the White Tiger's sharp claws. A shocking thunderbolt came crashing down!
Sand and stones flew everywhere. The beech trees were knocked down. The Dark Pine Forest, which was shrouded in black fog all year round, was illuminated by this lightning!
The wind was fierce, and they couldn't open their eyes. The scattered fire was also scattered by the blue-purple lightning!
Among the flying sand and stones, the white tiger wasn't defeated by this killing blow. Its snow-white fur was charred black by the lightning. It was dripping with blood. In pain, it wandered not far from Bai Chen and the others. It didn't dare to get close to the terrifying blue-purple lightning.
Qiao Li flew backwards. Bai Chen took a step forward and caught Qiao Li. At this moment, Qiao Li's entire body was covered in a dim bluish-purple glow. It seemed that the sure-kill attack had consumed all of his Origin Energy.
"Boss … the three of us are done for … It's not bad to die with you guys!"
Qiao Qiao gritted his teeth and sat up. The pain on his shoulder made his eyes teary. He sniffled and sniffled as he spoke to Bai Chen.
Even though they were in a life-and-death situation, Bai Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes in annoyance. He said disdainfully, "You're still talking nonsense at a time like this!"
He tore off his sleeve and bandaged Qiao Qiao's shoulder.
"I won't have the chance to talk nonsense in the future …" Qiao Qiao whispered as he looked at the roaming white tiger from afar.
He was probably going to lose his life here today.
Bai Chen's brows were tightly knitted. He didn't say anything.
They were in a life-and-death situation now. There was no need to hide anything. The lives of the three of them were at stake in this battle!
Looking at Qiao Qiao's miserable state, Bai Chen made up his mind.
'I'll fight!'
The moment he thought of this, his heart was instantly filled with joy.
His Essence, Qi, and Spirit were condensed to the extreme in an instant. His sea of consciousness churned. Nine Pathless Coins shone brightly and suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes. They danced and hovered above Bai Chen's slender right hand, exuding an unparalleled sense of vicissitudes and majesty.
Bai Chen's aura was like a rainbow. Under the illumination of the Pathless Coins, he was like a sovereign who had descended upon the world. He was the master whose words were the law!
He looked down on everything!
It was as if everything in the world was worshipping him!
Bai Chen walked calmly toward the white tiger. He walked through the purple lightning and flames. Every step he took made a sound. His slender body exuded a majestic aura. The Pathless Coins danced and hovered faster and faster. They shone brightly.
"Boss, that's …" Qiao Qiao watched in astonishment as Bai Chen walked over step by step. His gaze was unconsciously attracted by the light emitted by the Pathless Coins, but he didn't dare to look at them. It was as if he was a subject who was afraid of his king!
Wang Yuan, who was hidden in the shadows, was already standing beside Qiao Qiao. He rested his chin on his hand and revealed a faint smile. It was completely different from his personality these days!
Wang Yuan narrowed his eyes. However, there was a playful feeling in his eyes. He looked at Bai Chen's back and muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear, "This is really strange.
He's only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy. How can he have such a vicissitude aura?
That thing in his hand is really a good treasure … "
Wang Yuan chuckled softly.
It seemed that he didn't need to do anything. He just needed to reap the benefits.
Seeing Bai Chen approaching step by step, the white tiger didn't hesitate. It bared its sharp fangs and its bell-like eyes shone with a fierce light. It flapped its flaming wings and scattered flames. It waved its wings and roared as it charged toward Bai Chen.
Bai Chen's eyes focused. He released his Source Power without reservation. A dark aura radiated from his body. He spread his Divine Sense and could even clearly observe the white tiger's every move.
Its muscles were taut and its sword was already on the string. It could pounce on Bai Chen at any time and tear him to pieces!
Bai Chen's right eye suddenly turned into a dazzling gold. His left eye became as dark as an abyss, just like when he comprehended the truth of heaven and earth in the small courtyard that day.
Bai Chen felt that it was strange. Why did his Divine Sense immediately increase to such a terrifying level when he activated the Nine Arts of the Fallen Immortal? His right eye could see everything extremely clearly. With a sweep of his gaze, he could even see the rustling of the grass more than a hundred feet away.
Bai Chen's strange eyes revealed a hint of doubt. He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He focused on fighting the white tiger.
Qiao Qiao was stunned when Bai Chen released his Source Power. He exclaimed, "Evil path!
Boss is cultivating the Evil path!
How can this be … "
Qiao Qiao couldn't believe that the boss he had always admired was cultivating the Evil path!
Wang Yuan's mouth was also agape. His face was full of shock.
The Evil path!
The Nine Gods Continent's upper and lower realms, and even the higher planes, were all existences that were despised by the masses. Their actions were infuriating!
The so-called Evil path was also known as being possessed by the devil. After killing countless people, their Source Power would be tainted with black resentment. Wherever they went, corpses would be strewn everywhere and blood would flow for thousands of miles!
They were the number one target of everyone's crusade!
Bai Chen naturally heard Qiao Qiao's words. He felt wronged in his heart.
'I have a dark-type constitution!
'Not some Evil path my ass!'
'It's over, it's over. I haven't dealt with the white tiger yet, and I'm already in trouble.'
The white tiger roared and charged. Its speed was as fast as an arrow leaving the bow. Bai Chen's powerful Divine Sense keenly captured all of its movements. He pushed off with the tip of his foot, and his body soared into the air. He landed on a huge tree with a calm expression.
"Roar —"
The white tiger roared angrily and flapped its wings. The huge tree instantly burned. Bai Chen hurriedly jumped away from the tree. He had just left when the tree turned into ashes. The ashes that fell to the ground were still burning.
Bai Chen was stunned. These flames were comparable to the phoenix flames. Could it be …
"Whoosh —"
The white tiger seemed to be enraged when it failed to tear Bai Chen to shreds. It roared and suddenly flapped its wings of fire fiercely at Bai Chen.
Suddenly, a blade of fire shot out from its middle wing and flew straight at Bai Chen. Bai Chen cursed inwardly. The Daoless Coin spun rapidly and fell to the ground. He quickly rolled to the left, bounced up, and stumbled a few steps back.
Innate Skill!
Bai Chen panted. His Origin Power erupted. The eight copper coins were stimulated and instantly activated their devouring ability. The Netherworld Copper Coin instantly released a thick black fog that protected Bai Chen, Qiao Qiao, and the others.
Qiao Qiao and Wang Yuan were instantly enveloped by the black fog. Qiao Qiao was instantly choked by the extremely thick dark aura. He couldn't help but circulate his Origin Power to expel it from his body.
"It's … it's really …" Qiao Qiao's eyes were blank. He looked at the black fog and couldn't help but mutter.
The Evil Path was an existence that no one could tolerate. But why was his boss standing on the opposite side of him?
Although Wang Yuan was slightly uncomfortable with this dark aura, he could still tolerate it. When he saw the expression on Qiao Qiao's face, he said seriously, "Brother Qiao, this dark fog doesn't have a trace of blood. You know what this means."
"That's not important. What's important is that you've already recognized Brother Yun as your boss. If he's a member of the Evil Path, are you going to kill him?"
Qiao Qiao's body trembled. He suddenly came to a realization. He looked at the bandaged wound on his shoulder, and his eyes immediately became determined.
Since I've recognized you as my brother, even if there's a bottomless abyss in front of me, I, Qiao Qiao, will follow you to the end!
The powerful devouring ability instantly annihilated the blade of fire. It continued to devour the vitality and Origin Power within a few miles.
The white tiger howled at the sky in extreme pain. It rolled on the ground. The Origin Power in its body was being absorbed by the Pathless Coin. The pain was unimaginable to ordinary people.
Bai Chen sensed that something was wrong. He hurriedly controlled the Pathless Coin to return to his sea of consciousness. But he couldn't control the out-of-control Pathless Coin at all!
Bai Chen gritted his teeth. He used what little Origin Power he had left. He wanted to break through the black fog protecting him.
'Bastard!
If this continues, the Pathless Coin will definitely devour this area clean! '
"Boom —"
The Pathless Coin's devouring ability finally stopped. The Netherworld Coin also retracted the black fog and reunited with the other eight copper coins.
The eight copper coins were white and lustrous. They shimmered with vibrant colors. They wobbled and emitted white gas. It was as if they were burping after eating too much. Satisfied, they flashed back into Bai Chen's sea of consciousness and stopped moving.
Wang Yuan shot forward and pressed the white tiger who was rolling on the ground in pain. He carefully avoided the white tiger's wings. He took out a jade pendant from somewhere and used his Origin Power to press it against the white tiger's body.
"Whoosh —"
A gust of wind blew. The white tiger's body suddenly emitted a blinding white light. Wang Yuan quickly cut his finger and dripped a drop of blood into the jade pendant. The white tiger whimpered. Wang Yuan's white tiger figure disappeared in the white light.
When the white light dissipated, a tired Wang Yuan was lying on the ground like a pile of mud. A snow-white fluffy kitten was lying on top of him. Its pink little nose kept sniffing Wang Yuan's scent. Its face was full of disbelief.
Bai Chen still hadn't recovered from what had just happened. He panted heavily. His taut nerves finally relaxed. He sat down on the ground, sweating profusely.
"Big ~ ~ Big ~ ~ Ah ~ ~ ~" Qiao Qiao wiped his tears and snot. He rushed over and hugged Bai Chen's leg tightly and cried loudly.
"I'm not dead!
We're not dead. Wuwuwuwuwu … "
When he saw Qiao Qiao wiping his tears and snot on his clothes, Bai Chen almost couldn't help but throw Qiao Qiao away. If it weren't for the fact that he was exhausted.
'That's right!
We survived! '
