[I have swallowed almost every pills I can, and now, it has paid off!] Wang Ling's cultivation was rising. From peak middle-energy palace stage, he entered late-energy palace stage without halt.
It was bizarre and scary. Many people had to spend countless of nights before managing to break through a certain stage in cultivation. But Wang Ling just broke through here without any problems.
But what he did wasn't a coincidence. He had ingested dozens of pills before he started the fight with the Black Tiger with this reason in mind. However, that's not all he did as he also used the pressure from the Black Tiger's assault to ensure that he will be able to forcefully refine the pills that was inside him.
The nurous assault of qi that entered his body was enough to refine the cumulative qi that had built-up inside his energy palace. Wang Ling had been focusing on both inside and outside, that he was thrown around like a body bag.
He was unable to focus solely on the fight. For him to survive this long was actually sothing that is comndable. It was sothing that even Wang Ling could not believe and was force to let out a smile.
Not that the Black Tiger was weak, no, it was far from being one. The Black Tiger was strong, terrifyingly so, but it seed like it was holding back or most likely, it was starting to get used to its newly freed body.
Wang Ling was sure that the longer the fights draws, the stronger this Black Tiger would beco. At the mont, the Black Tiger was already a pinnacle-energy palace stage. This beast is not sothing he had seen before and was sothing that should be above this realm.
For it to only be a match to so high-level pinnacle-energy palace stage savage beast that Wang Ling could match at his current strength at middle-energy palace stage cultivation was absurd.
The signs of the Black Tiger getting stronger as it stayed free was getting more apparent. It was starting to use different techniques and was also beginning to use strange shapeshifting abilities.
Wang Ling knew that this Black Tiger had yet to show him its true power. Wang Ling was sure that if this Black Tiger gets use to moving again, he won't able to survive. Was this beast so strong that he won't be able to beat the instant it gets used to moving around.
With that in thought, Wang Ling took out the last five pills that was inside his storage ring and popped it into this mouth. These five pills were the best pills he had pillaged from the Soaring Wind Empire people.
These pills were all peak grade 2 pill. He had wanted to use these pills for his break through the foundational phase and reach the first boundary realm. However, this is not the ti to be choosy as he need to get stronger and match this Black Tiger, if he acts stingy, he will die.
Seeing Wang Ling eat those pills, the Black Tiger seed to have realized what Wang Ling wanted to do and raised a brow. It looked at him full of interest as it understood that the human that it was fighting was attempting to make another breakthrough.
But was a breakthrough so easy to achieve? Not considering the foundation being affected because of multiple forced breakthroughs. Death will also follow if the body is not strong enough.
"Hahaha, do you think you can achieve breakthroughs one after another? You fool, what you're doing is only going to kill you!" Looking at Wang Ling with disdain, the Black Tiger continued, "If breakthroughs are so easily achieved, then ditation and grasping the mysteries of cultivation won't be necessary! Why don't you just let eat you here and now? Eating a corpse isn't as tasty as eating a live human after all."
"Cultivation is mysterious, Black Tiger, don't lump with other humans. Just as you are special, I am too. With that said, are you really a Tiger? Those wings of yours does not belong to you does it?"
"Hmph, what do you know! These wings is mine, no matter what anyone says, these are mine!" roaring, the Black Tiger suddenly dashed forward as if it was angered by his words.
This was a surprise to Wang Ling but he did not have ti to act leisurely and enjoy a pleasant talk with this beast. Wang Ling's Devil's Pupils revolved and reflected a very dangerous light. His Ocean's Lull was spread out to its fullest and he beca alerted by his surroundings.
A split second after the Black Tiger suddenly moved in against him, a giant figure appeared before him that was trying to split him into two parts with its two sharp claws. Wang Ling had no ti to waste and reacted with lightning speed.
Clang!
He perfectly parried the claw!
Clang!
Another one was parried.
Clang!
Cla-Cla-Cla-Cla-Cla-Cla-Cla-Clangg!
Their speed that was already terrifying was beginning increase. Wang Ling's already terrifying physique was, at this mont beginning to change as his cultivation stabilized and the remaining spirit qi he had just ingested from the five peak grade 2 pills started getting assimilated within every fiber of his being.
The Black Tiger was also not losing out in terms of improvent. Its claws that was enlarged with the use of its Phantom Claws were beginning to beco smaller and condensed.
Slowly, the claws were moving more naturally and in a much refined manner. Its hulking body that was over three ters large was also beginning to beco smaller as their exchange continued.
At the mont, its three ter large body was already a small as two and a half ters. Its movents were beginning to beco faster and the fog that was beneath its paws were beginning to beco denser and realistic.
Their improvents were terrifying. One would think that their improvent was inhuman given that the two of them were indeed inhuman as one was a beast from tis of the past and the other was a devil that ca from the previous era.
The two were monster of their own rights.
The wind howled as they continued to clash. Their clashes were so intense that a cyclone was beginning to form around the area where they were fighting.
"AAAHHHH!!"
"ROARRRRR!!"
The two of them was roaring as the wind began to sweep the trees below. One was releasing an aura of slaughter and destruction while the other was releasing an aura of pure ferocity and savageness.
They were equal, no one was above nor was anyone below. They moved at the sa speed and their strength were the sa as well. If one wanted to triumph over the other, a variable must be present to send ripples to the situation.
However, that wanted variable was not coming any ti soon. Their fight was too intense and too balance. Their clashes began to move as they tried to move in different angles of attack.
They tried moving above their opponents while also trying to attack the other party below. Their clashes that was only intensifying was brought upon destruction to the White Dragon Valley.
The land was unearthed and various craters were created. What used to be the habitats of the savage beasts were destroyed. Not that destroying the White Dragon Valley would actually matter anyway.
The beasts of the White Dragon Valley were already almost instinct. What used to be the hunting grounds for various powers was now a lifeless valley. Almost every savage beasts inside the White Dragon Valley was drained by the Black Tiger.
Wang Ling and the Black Tiger would occasionally co upon a few corpses of savage beasts and humans as they fought. Wang Ling's eyes managed to chance upon the storage rings that was on the fingers of the human corpses that was flying all over the place with his Devil's Pupils.
Although he found it a waste not being able to harvest their wealth for himself, Wang Ling did not break his concentration and faced against the monstrosity that was the Black Tiger.
Their fight had now lasted for more than four hours, the two was beginning to feel tired. No matter how strong they were, their spirit qi was still limited. After fighting for hours, they were nearly running out of energy.
They were trying to catch their breath, but no one wanted to take the chance and die because they stopped moving from being too tired. The two of them knew how dangerous one another was, they were both careful on this fight.
But as the fight went on and their strengths grew more and more, Wang Ling felt that his cultivation had finally reached the peak. The two grade 2 pills were doing its job.
Without wasting any ti, he went ahead and clashed once again with the Black Tiger and used the pressure from it to break through another level. He used his sword and t with the Black Tiger's claw and with a bang, Wang Ling sent the Black Tiger flying as his cultivation suddenly had a breakthrough.
Two simultaneous breakthroughs in the span of a single day was not sothing that anyone can do. However, Wang Ling managed to do it with the help of his cosmic foundations and superb cultivation technique.
Wang Ling's power surged and began to fight like a devil. He finally gained the upper hand and was starting to create dozens of slashes in re seconds.
The Black Tiger noticed this and roared at Wang Ling before pouncing forward as it denied what was happening. It was a proud ruler of beasts that once ruled over countless beings.
The pride it had was not sothing a re human can comprehend. For it to lose to soone as weak as Wang Ling, the Black Tiger suddenly felt a burning passion and crazing for destruction.
The Black Tiger's blood essence imdiately turned into a sea of flas. The now two ter large Black Tiger began to emit terrifying aura of slaughter that was even denser than Wang Ling's.
What's more is that the aura of slaughter was not alone as another aura was there. It was the fierce aura of a true Sovereign and Tyrant, the Tiger. Two different beings suddenly erged behind the Black Tiger.
It was the Phoenix it had devoured and a Black Tiger that looked exactly like it. The ignition of its bloodline had started.
A sudden burst of power erged from deep within the Black Tiger. It looked at Wang Ling with ferocity and roared to the heavens.
"ROARRR!!!"
The roar was fierce and the image of the Phoenix and the Black Tiger behind it also did what it did. The illusory image of the Black Tiger Roared and a black fog covered its body and started to emit dark gold light. The Phoenix burst into flas and looked like a ball of flas that was so hot that it made the air pop.
Wang Ling saw this, did the sa as the Black Tiger and ignited his blood essence. His blood churned as his whole being changed.
The black tattoo that only took so little space started to spread. Soon, his back was filled with black patterns. The black patters emitted a devilish light that almost made him stronger by a fold.
But Wang Ling knew, that this was now enough. He even drew power from his Hell Spark and gained the chaotic energy of flas. The Hell Spark was not flas yet, but it still improved his current conditions.
Wang Ling that was emitting devilish might stood against the Black Tiger that had two illusory figure of a Black Tiger and a blazing Phoenix. The two of them stared at one another before letting out another heaven shaking roar to rouse themselves up.
They dashed forth and tried to take the title of victorious for themselves.
"AAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!"
"ROOOOAAAAARRRRR!!!"
Ssssshhhh!!!
Boom!
Two different force clashed and an explosion that made a towering cloud of dust appear in the depths of the White Dragon Valley.
The dust started to settle and no shadow could be seen standing. A crater was now ford that spread over tens of ters in radius, in the middle of the crater were two figures.
One was a bloodied human and the other was an also bloodied beast. The two of them was unconscious and no one seem to have won that fight.
But sothing weird had now co into full view, beside Wang Ling was no Black Tiger nor a Phoenix, beside him was a Snow Fox that had been injured.
