Chapter 493: Chapter 493: Youming Feitian Ghost King Tiger_1

“`

Qian Zongsheng and the others dared not be careless, and immediately retreated with Xu Yixue, withdrawing another hundred meters before the dread gripping their hearts diminished slightly.

Xu Fan watched the movements within the cloud formation with an impassive expression, his face betraying nothing, but a sharp light flickered in his eyes as if eager to try something.

He felt the increasingly strong fluctuations within the storage ring and felt reassured, “My guess was indeed correct.”

With that thought, his expression became even more indifferent, as if he had a card up his sleeve.

Heh heh… creating such a scare, but in the end, you two are just here to bring benefits.

...

“Roar!”

Suddenly, a roar that shook the earth and mountains erupted from within the clouds, vibrating the very fabric of this realm.

One could faintly feel the void shivering as if the overwhelming might was about to break it apart.

Everyone looked up intently at the dense clouds.

A gigantic tiger head emerged from the clouds, terrifyingly fierce with sharp fangs and a golden “King” character on its forehead. Its eyes were filled with an awe-inspiring presence, as if it were the ruler of all, looking down upon the world with contempt.

As it roared, visible sound waves propelled through the air like rolling waves.

The four Grandmasters stood on the ground and, upon seeing this, their complexions quickly paled. They hastily used their True Qi to seal their ears, to avoid their minds and hearts from being attacked.

Qian Zongsheng also released his True Qi, forming an energy wall in front of Xu Yixue, protecting her.

This was not an ordinary sound wave but one that embodied the battle spirit, capable of directly impacting the mind.

Xu Yixue, being a commoner with a fragile mind, was easily vulnerable to damage from these sound waves.

Qiankun Twin Swords’ faces were lit with joy as they received the Ghost King Tiger like protectors flanking a VIP, leaning forward to greet it with due respects, and loudly welcoming, “We welcome the mighty Ghost King Tiger.”

Inside the clouds, thunder boomed and lightning flashed tumultuously, with sounds that thundered through the sky.

“Boom!”

The Ghost King Tiger stepped out of the clouds, the dark clouds parting forcefully to reveal its massive body.

It was over ten meters long, about as tall as a two-story building, with two wings sprouting from its dark back, each as wide as it was long. Below its limbs rumbled thunder, with arcs of electricity dancing around.

What was more astonishing was the tail end of the tiger, which burned with a cluster of cyan flames.

Standing in mid-air, the Ghost King Tiger like a devil king in all its domineering grandeur, lifted its head to let out a ground-shaking roar, the sound waves filled with a formidable pressure, causing the great clouds to scatter in every direction, just like a tree falling and crushing all in its path.

Heavy murderous aura occupied the vicinity, and although Qian Zongsheng and his group had retreated far, they were still overwhelmed, the tremendous pressure affecting them so much that their True Qi became disordered and their breaths grew labored, nearly suffocating.

Their gazes were filled with shock and disbelief, not doubting for a moment the creature’s power to destroy heaven and earth.

As the clouds dispersed and moonlight poured down, the vast shadow of the Ghost King Tiger became a sight of terror.

Normally, a soul is formless and intangible, elusive to grasp, but with overpowering strength, the battle spirit’s soul body seemed as tangible as reality and naturally cast a shadow.

However, the battle spirit suffered damage in its lifetime, with an incomplete Three Souls and Seven Spirits, hence it lacked intelligence. At most, it was a tool with only the instinct for battle, acting on simple commands from its summoner.

Yet, Qiankun Twin Swords still showed it the utmost respect, for even they particularly felt chills in their presence of the Ghost King Tiger, and the close proximity only heightened their fear.

There was no helping it, the power discrepancy was too vast, a mere gesture from the Ghost King Tiger could erase them in an instant.

“Mighty Ghost King Tiger, those few ahead, please eradicate them all,” directed Qian Sword, pointing out Xu Fan and the others one by one with a sinister voice.

The Ghost King Tiger was extremely bloodthirsty in its lifetime, relishing bloodshed, and becoming a battle spirit only intensified this nature rather than diminishing it.

“Roar!”

The Ghost King Tiger looked down towards Xu Fan and Nan Bowan, uttering a low growl to acknowledge the command, its aura swiftly locking onto both of their figures.

“`

Nan Bowan suddenly felt the space around him solidify, as if he were a goat stuck in the muck, his face turning deathly pale.

He realized that he had still underestimated the strength of the Ghost King Tiger.

However, Xu Fan wore a different expression, showing no fear and maintaining a calm demeanor with a faint smile, as if he had seen something he liked.

“Clang…”

Just at that moment, the Ghost King Tiger suddenly opened its massive jaws and spat out a bolt of lightning, shooting it towards Nan Bowan.

Xu Fan was slightly startled. Why didn’t the Ghost King Tiger attack him first?

Immediately, Xu Fan wielded the Heavenly Fiend Great Demon and slashed a trail of black Demonic Qi across the void, intercepting the lightning in mid-air.

Even before they touched, they had begun an intense clash of momentum, brightening the night sky.

Xu Fan’s control over his energy was just right, perfectly neutralizing the bolt of lightning.

Nan Bowan let out a sigh of relief. Being locked in place, it was rather difficult to handle this lightning strike, and even if he could manage, it would certainly give him a hard time.

Therefore, his look towards Xu Fan was one of surprise and a touch of gratitude.

Xu Fan then used this collision to vaguely analyze the Ghost King Tiger’s approximate strength.

The realm of the Ghost King Tiger was that of a complete Martial King, but its combat power was off the charts, clearly beyond the category of a Martial King, and with its ability to shift between tangible and intangible, it was theoretically immune to physical damage.

Even if a Heavenly Venerable Ancient Martial Artist faced it, they would feel a splitting headache, feeling somewhat at a loss on how to proceed.

However, Xu Fan had already prepared another strategy.

As he stored the Heavenly Fiend Great Demon in his storage ring, Xu Fan produced a small flag in his hand, only the size of a palm, pitch black as ink with subtle patterns of the Four Holy Beasts.

Fluttering in the night breeze, the small flag rustled.

This flag was none other than the Four Symbols Creation Flag obtained from the mini-world of the Ancient Martial Artist Luo Wutong.

The Ghost King Tiger, however, let out another low growl, as if provoked by Xu Fan’s interception, immediately falling into a fury.

The tiger is known as one of the kings of beasts.

The Youming Feitian Ghost King Tiger was even more extraordinary. Although it had become a battle spirit, it had not lost the instinct of a king.

Therefore, it was easily enraged.

“Heh… you’re quite temperamental for such a little thing,” Xu Fan chuckled teasingly.

Hearing such a description from him, everyone looked at him with an odd expression.@@novelbin@@

The ferocious and fierce Ghost King Tiger was being referred to as “little thing”—it was simply… hard for people to accept.

“You despicable junior, you’ve got nothing but lip service left. In the face of absolute power, all your arrogance is worthless. Just wait, you’ll be crushed by a single swipe of Lord Ghost King Tiger’s claw soon enough,” Kun Sword sneered, his eyes filled with mockery and pity.

“Hahaha, how pitiful. It’s nothing more than an ignorant wisp of a remnant soul but dares to claim to be a lord? Humph, if I wanted to kill it, it would be reduced to ashes in less than a second,” Xu Fan scoffed coldly.

His words were not merely bluster.

Though the Ghost King Tiger seemed powerful, it was like a Martial Artist who had mastered the Golden Bell Guard Iron Shirt—once you knew its Life Gate, you could easily break through its defenses.

Xu Fan happened to know the Ghost King Tiger’s Life Gate: it feared attacks on the spiritual level, as battle spirits were very vulnerable to them.

And coincidentally, Xu Fan had cultivated many soul-attacking spells and even divine powers in his past life…
