Chapter 1279 Overwhelming Prowess

1279 Overwhelming Prowess

”Despite coming from the upper heavens and knowing my identity, you still dared to assault me? Are you insane? I can have your entire family executed for your crimes.” Bai Xutao sneered.

”What are you talking about? Youʼre the one who assaulted me first.” Yuan said. ”I am only defending myself.”

”Bullshit! If you hadnʼt humiliated me with that lie at the restaurant, we wouldnʼt be here right now!”

”Me? Lie? I have no idea what youʼre talking about.” Yuan acted stupid.

Bai Xutao could feel his anger coming back.

”Enough of this — I donʼt care why you approached me, but youʼll regret it. Iʼll make sure of it.” Bai Xutaoʼs aura increased even further, almost as though he had no limits to his strength.

And without saying anything else, he began attacking Yuan again.

However, he still found himself on the losing end, being punched left and right by Yuan.

ʼFuck! Fuck! Fuck! I donʼt care anymore! Even if I have to deal with a Heavenly Tribulation later, I will not let this bastard humiliate me any longer!ʼ

Having reached this decision, Bai Xutao immediately unsealed his cultivation base, propelling it from peak Spirit King to peak Spirit Emperor in a mere heartbeat.

As he ascended to the rank of Spirit Emperor, his aura underwent a profound transformation, and his spiritual energy surged skyward, exuding a powerful presence that was prohibited in the Third Heaven.

ʼHeʼs still underestimating me, huh?”ʼ Yuan grinned upon witnessing Bai Xutaoʼs transformation. ʼWell, this couldnʼt be more perfect.ʼ

Meanwhile, Bai Xutao became enraged when he noticed that Yuan was still in the Spirit King realm, misunderstanding the situation.

ʼHow dare he look down on me…ʼBai Xutao surmised that Yuanʼs reluctance to unseal his cultivation stemmed from a perception of being underestimated.

After taking a moment to channel his anger into energy, Bai Xutao rushed at Yuan again.

Now that he was an entire realm above Yuan, Bai Xutao expected to waste him without any effort.

”Heavenly Tigerʼs Destruction Wave!” Bai Xutao roared, attacking Yuan with the same technique that destroyed a third of a city, yet it was a hundred times stronger than previously.

In the blink of an eye, the sound waves generated by the technique obliterated the scenery behind Yuan, reducing the trees and even mountains to nothingness.

”What…?” Bai Xutaoʼs eyes widened in astonishment as he observed that Yuan remained unscathed by his assault, even though he was convinced it had not missed its mark.

In response, Yuan cleaned his ears with his pinky and muttered, ”Can you not do that again? That tickled my ears.”

”How did you—”

Right as Bai Xutao opened his mouth, Yuan rushed at him and started beating on him again, almost as though Bai Xutaoʼs increased cultivation never even happened.

”AAAAAAAH!” After snapping out of his daze, Bai Xutao removed some more of his restraints, reaching peak Spirit Sovereign.

”DIEEEE, YOU BASTARD!!!”

Bai Xutaoʼs arms suddenly transformed into tiger arms.

”Heavenly Tigerʼs Severing Fury!”

He unleashed a dozen swings of his claws at Yuan, each stroke giving rise to five formidable wind blades that cleaved through everything in their path, their power and sharpness rivaling that of Sword Aura.

”Hmph.”

Using nothing but his bare hands, Yuan swung them at the wind blades, effortlessly cutting them in half as if he were chopping through mere twigs.

The split wind blades continued to fly into the distance, cleaving through anything that dared to block their paths as easily as cutting tofu.

”N-No way… What are you?!” Bai Xutao was in disbelief.

He simply couldnʼt believe that he was still being overwhelmed by a Spirit King while he was a Spirit Sovereign.

Even though he could increase his cultivation even further— to Spirit Enlightenment, he was hesitant to do so, as his Heavenly Tribulation would grow stronger as he unsealed more of his powers, and using the powers of a Spirit Enlightenment in the Third Heaven would threaten even someone like him as long as he remained in this realm.

With increasing his cultivation ruled out as an option, Bai Xutao resolved to execute the next best course of action.

”I didnʼt think I would bring this out in a place like this…” Bai Xutao muttered as he retrieved a pair of white gloves that resembled a tigerʼs paw.
The pair of gloves emitted a distinct aura that could only be associated with Soul Weapons, a feeling that Yuan was well acquainted with.

The moment he wore the gloves, Bai Xutaoʼs aura skyrocketed even further even though his cultivation remained the same.

Each Soul Weapon possessed its individual set of effects, and the gloves seemed to have substantially increased Bai Xutaoʼs stats, as he was at least three times more powerful compared to just moments ago.

Yuan contemplated summoning his Empyrean Overlord, but he was concerned that such an action might unveil his true identity, so he had to decide between Starry Abyss or Dragonʼs Soul.

ʼSince I have never used Dragonʼs Soul before, itʼll almost be impossible to identify me unless they go to the Ancient Dragon City.ʼ Yuan thought to himself, summoning Dragonʼs Soul a moment later.

”Che. So you also have a Soul Weapon.” Although Bai Xutao wasnʼt surprised that someone as powerful as Yuan had a Soul Weapon, he had hoped that wasnʼt the case.

”Whatever. Even if you have a Soul Weapon, thereʼs no way itʼs more powerful than mine, which belonged to the Heavenly White Tiger God himself!” Bai Xutao exclaimed as he confronted Yuan with confidence.

Even though he summoned his Soul Weapon, Yuan didnʼt immediately use it and still relied on his limbs to fight Bai Xutao— mostly his legs.

Seeing this, Bai Xutao didnʼt even bother to dodge his kicks, allowing them to strike him on purpose.

Yuan immediately realized why Bai Xutao had disposed of all of his defenses, as there seemed to be an invisible armor protecting him that absorbed all of the kicks.

”Itʼs no use! As long as I am wielding my Beastʼs Unyielding Might, none of your attacks will affect me! You wonʼt be able to touch even a single hair on my body now! Ahahaha!”

Bai Xutao laughed out loud as he focused solely on offense, pouncing on Yuan like a mad tiger.
