Heaven-Surpassing Divine Emperor

Bing Hu was covered in a layer of white battle armor.

The battle armor enveloped him, making Bing Hu look like a ferocious, upright tiger.

”White Tiger Heaven-Slaying Claw!”

Bing Hu roared, his voice like thunder shaking the heavens, and swiped a claw through the air.

His arm was covered in sharp, white metallic claws.

SHIING! SHIING!

With the sound of grinding metal, five scythe-like talons shot out from the tips of the metallic claws.

The talons slashed through the air.

A white glow of the Martial Dao spread across the sky, tracing five graceful arcs. Cracks in space appeared wherever the talons passed.

They shot straight for Jiang Chen’s chest.

’I can’t block this head-on!’

Jiang Chen’s heart sank.

The sheer sharpness emanating from the talons made Jiang Chen’s heart pound with fear.

’I have a bad feeling about this!’

’If I try to block that with my body, even if it’s as tough as a High-level Celestial Tier Profound Weapon, I’m afraid it’ll tear off a few chunks of my flesh.’

He threw two fierce punches into the air.

BOOM! BOOM!

Two heavy fist phantoms whistled out, forming a barrier before him like two dark mountain peaks.

At the same time, Jiang Chen shot backward.

The instant he retreated, the talons arrived and tore the two True Essence fist phantoms apart. A terrifying power erupted, whipping up a world-ending Energy Storm. The storm was powerful enough to shred an ordinary Union Palace Realm expert, but Bing Hu strolled casually out from its center.

He emitted a faint white light, sacred and powerful. The storm couldn’t harm him in the slightest.

’Such a strong body... Is this the Green-eyed White Tiger’s Martial Soul Talent, the Tiger Demon Transformation? To think it can transform into such powerful battle armor. A Celestial Tier Ninth Grade Martial Soul is truly worthy of its reputation!’ Jiang Chen’s heart sank; the power Bing Hu displayed after using the Tiger Demon Transformation was simply too immense.

Even with his current strength, facing Bing Hu made his heart pound with fear!

’My chances of winning are only fifty-fifty!’

’So this is the power of someone ranked in the fifteen-hundreds on the Eastern Continent’s Human Venerable List? How strong must the top one hundred, the top ten, or even the number one person on the list be? This world is too vast, filled with countless experts. My strength is still far from enough!’ Jiang Chen stood in the distant sky, his gaze like lightning.

The Eastern Continent’s Human Venerable List.

The Earth Venerable List!

The Celestial Venerable List!

’Above these, there’s still the Emperor Realm, the legendary Demigods...’

’I haven’t even reached the top of the Human Venerable List, yet Xiang Tianwen’s strength is probably already at the level of the experts on the Celestial Venerable List.’

’Perhaps even...’

’He might even be an Emperor Realm Powerhouse!’

’I was planning on heading to Zhongzhou after forging the Profound Celestial Ice Coffin, but it looks like I’ll have to postpone that. I should wait until I’ve reached the top of the Eastern Continent’s Human Venerable List before going to Zhongzhou!’ Zhongzhou was the heart of the entire Qiankun Continent, the true gathering place for geniuses.

’If I can’t even become number one among my peers in the Eastern Continent, I’m afraid I won’t even have the strength to protect myself when I get to Zhongzhou.’

Of course...

These were all matters for the future.

The most urgent task at hand was to resolve the battle with Bing Hu.

”Human boy, now you know how powerful I am, don’t you?” Bing Hu said smugly.

Jiang Chen gave him a cold look. With a flick of his wrist, the Spirit-Slaying Sword landed in his palm.

The hilt was ice-cold to the touch.

Under Jiang Chen’s refinement, it had recovered to the level of a High-level Celestial Tier Profound Weapon, more than enough to handle a fight at the Union Palace Realm!

”Tsk, tsk. You still plan to resist?”

Seeing Jiang Chen draw his Profound Weapon, Bing Hu was stunned for a moment before smiling wryly. ”What a pity. Even if you draw a stronger Profound Weapon, you still can’t escape death.”

As he spoke, Bing Hu charged forward once more.

He lunged at Jiang Chen like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.

He crossed his claws before his chest and then ripped his arms apart, sending two white claw slashes tearing outward.

The void trembled, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi fell into chaos.

Jiang Chen swung his longsword through the air. ”Fish Dragon Nine Swords—First Sword!”

”Second Sword!”

”Third Sword...”

Sword phantoms filled the sky as a brilliant golden light shot upward.

Amidst the swaths of Sword Aura, Bing Hu showed no fear, pressing forward fearlessly with his White Tiger Armor.

His White Tiger Armor was simply too powerful!

Peerless streams of Sword Aura bombarded his body, yet they didn’t even leave a single white mark.

He swatted continuously with his claws.

Stream after stream of Sword Aura was shattered by his claws.

Jiang Chen retreated wildly, landing on a hill. But Bing Hu was already upon him, letting out a long roar, ”Heaven-Tearing Claw!”

SWOOSH!

Behind Bing Hu, a colossal white tiger, hundreds of feet tall, seemed to materialize.

This white tiger looked like the king of beasts!

It slammed a claw down.

BOOM—

The entire hill was smashed to pieces. It was a scene of Mountain Collapse and Earth Split. Amid the billowing smoke, Jiang Chen continuously flashed to new positions.

”Hahaha, let’s see you run now!” Bing Hu roared in triumph.

He was also incredibly fast and gave chase.

”Boy, got the guts to stop running?!”

Bing Hu roared.

Inside the White Tiger Armor, he was practically invincible.

He had a tyrannical defense that was impervious to the Spirit-Slaying Sword’s attacks. His ferocious speed was even faster than Jiang Chen’s *Shadow Body Technique*. He possessed a sharp offense—his claws alone could tear apart a Celestial-tier Profound Weapon...

An opponent who was flawless in every aspect.

He was a real headache!

’I can’t let him keep suppressing me like this. If I wait for his momentum to reach its peak, it’ll be difficult to counterattack!’ Even in such a crisis, Jiang Chen managed to remain calm.

It was just like a clash between two armies; once one side gained overwhelming momentum, they would often become the final victor.

The same was true in a battle between experts!

Clad in the White Tiger Armor, Bing Hu rampaged wildly, relentlessly chasing and bearing down on Jiang Chen.

”Human boy, where do you think you’re going!”

”Eat this claw!”

”Hahaha, is running all you can do?”

Bing Hu smashed his way forward, crashing straight through any mountains in his path. When faced with Jiang Chen’s counterattacks, he was fearless, relying on the White Tiger Armor’s powerful defense to tank the blows.

Then he would seize any opportunity to pounce.

Jiang Chen grew exhausted fending him off. He had tried many techniques, but none had any effect, which gave him a headache. ’This guy is simply flawless!’

The experts under Bing Hu’s command watched from a distance, their faces alight with excitement. ”As expected of the Fourth Prince, the Undying Battle Tiger! That human boy can’t break through his defense at all. The Prince has this battle won!”

”This is a completely one-sided beatdown!”

”I thought this human boy would give us an exciting fight, but I didn’t expect him to be so useless. What a letdown!”

”Hehe, this human boy is already doing pretty well. After all, our Fourth Prince is the Undying Battle Tiger, a peerless prodigy ranked 1,521 on the Human Venerable List. If it were an ordinary Human Race expert, the Prince would have torn him to shreds long ago!”

”That’s true!”

The faces of Bing Hu’s subordinates were relaxed and carefree.

They were completely confident in Bing Hu!

’Is he really invincible?’

As Jiang Chen fended off Bing Hu’s relentless pursuit, he pondered, ’Invincible defense, invincible strength, invincible offense... does this Bing Hu really not have any weaknesses?’

’Wait...’

A flash of insight suddenly struck Jiang Chen’s mind, and a smile appeared on his face. ’I get it, hahaha... How could someone so perfect truly exist in this world? Bing Hu, I’ve finally found your weakness!’

Jiang Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks. He turned to face the charging Bing Hu, a cold smile gracing his lips.

He suddenly thrust the Spirit-Slaying Sword forward...
