Chapter 1231: Intercepting Hades

In the skies to the west, a burst of light flashed. The blaze was bright and blinding, like a comet streaking across the sky.

However, even in broad daylight, this streak of light was incredibly bright, even drowning out the sun. However, it did not give any semblance of warmth to observers; instead, there was a chilly feeling, like cold, hard metal.

The light paused slightly above Xiling City. Fearsome demonic powers radiated outwards, as if about to slaughter all life and annihilate the world.

The light dissipated, revealing the form of a white tiger. Within its pupils, cold, strange light flashed, completely emotionless. A pure-blooded white tiger Great Demon of Cardinal Tribulations Beginning Stage, and only one step away from Vipralopa stage. Its Abhijnas and demonic powers were extraordinarily strong.

The appearance of the white tiger caused the nerves of the Great Qin Empire cultivators to become strained once again.

Most knew that the pure-blooded white tiger was captured by Lin Feng, and after that, rarely appeared in the eyes of others any more. However, at this moment, the abrupt arrival of the White Tiger Grand Sage at Xiling City still strung up the nerves of every single man of the Great Qin.

The time was the middle of the War of the Two Worlds. Even though the White Tiger Grand Sage has submitted to the Celestial Sect of Wonders, its sudden appearance at this juncture was enough to make many human cultivators quake with terror, unsure of its intentions.

Even the Lu Yuan Grand Sage was rather nervous upon seeing the White Tiger Grand Sage. The White Tiger Grand Sage’s strength was simply so much greater than his.

Shi Tianhao’s expression, however, was relatively calm as he raised his head and looked at the White Tiger Grand Sage, chuckling. “Sir, you have completed your study?”

Stationary in the Void, the White Tiger Grand Sage nodded. “That’s right. At least it’s not too late; I could still get a piece.”

His voice was completely cold, like metal clanging against metal. He continued, “After knowing that I have completed, the Sect Leader ordered me here to reinforce the Sect Leader of the Great Void Sect, Yan Nanlai.”

Hearing the words “Great Void Sect”, Shi Tianhao curled his lips and did not say anything further.

He has never had any good things to say about the Great Void Sect – always the First Holy Land of Humans – since they accepted Shi Tianyi as a disciple despite full knowledge of the events that happened.

When the Great Void Sect attempted to use his parents as the bait and send him, Zhu Yi, and the others into the Black Sea – therefore forcing his Master, Lin Feng, to enter the Black Sea and engage the Dragon Tribe as well – his opinion of it, already in the negative, took the slide into the abyss.

However, Shi Tianhao was well aware of the situation now and the crucial parts. He knew what should be done at what time; even if Lin Feng ordered he himself to rush to their aid, he would not protest in the slightest, let alone ordering the White Tiger Grand Sage.

Of course, this did not prevent him from laughing at the predicament of the Great Void Sect either.

“Just as Master said, the Emperor of the Dead is indeed good at being patient.” Previously, he was helping Xiling City avert disaster, and then immersed in cultivation all the way. Right now, it was only after hearing Lin Feng’s words as relayed by the White Tiger Grand Sage that Shi Tianhao became aware of Yan Nanlai’s bloody sortie over at Mount Baiyun, as well as the events and reasons.

The mocking smile on Shi Tianhao’s face lessened somewhat. “So…the Emperor of the Dead struck at the root and used Yan Xinghe’s Evil Soul to shake the Supreme Heavenly Mirror. Yan Nanlai’s plan, meanwhile, is to use the Blood Soul Pacification Spell and strike at the root as well, cursing and killing his own ancestor, Yan Xinghe?”

With the mention of the Blood Soul Pacification Spell, and reminded of its precursor, the Blood Soul Grand Curse, the White Tiger Grand Sage and the Lu Yuan Grand Sage still looked normal, although their expressions were certainly not joyful.

Although the Demons have neutralized the threat of the Blood Soul Grand Curse many years ago, but the threat and damage this Curse did to the Demons back in the old days were real as it gets. By the time the White Tiger Grand Sage and the Lu Yuan Grand Sage were born, the Blood Soul Grand Curse was already unable to take effect; however, they naturally knew about the events of yesteryear from the inheritances of their Clan.

“There is also the possibility that he is using that opportunity to escape with his life, from Mount Baiyun. The so-called plan of mutual destruction was merely a ruse.” The White Tiger Grand Sage spoke emotionlessly. “However, the Sect Leader feels that this person is still trustworthy. Also, no eggs can stay intact when the nest is overturned; if the Supreme Heavenly Mirror is seized, it is very likely that the Great Void Sect will meet with destruction.”

“According to Mr. Miao, this Leader Yan is an ultraconservative within the Great Void Sect. This act of his is most likely not an attempt to preserve his own life through deception, and thus trustworthy. If he is indeed determined to carry this out, although his previous actions may be despicable, his deed today definitely inspires respect.” Shi Tianhao said.

The White Tiger Grand Sage said coldly, “I am not interested in that man. What I am interested in is these few Hades pursuing him.”

Shi Tianhao smiled. The father of the White Tiger in front of him – the previous White Tiger Grand Sage – was slain by the Hades Tribe many years ago. Shi Tianhao naturally knew about his hate for the Hades Tribe.

The strength of the White Tiger Grand Sage way exceeded that of Demons like the Lu Yuan Grand Sage, and his character was also more unyielding and intractable.

Although many years have passed since he submitted to Lin Feng, but right now, when Lin Feng was engaged in fervent battle with Illusory Sun Hades, the White Tiger Grand Sage doubtlessly enjoy a much higher degree of autonomy. It was indeed questionable how much effect the restraints Lin Feng placed on him still has.

However, at this juncture of the appearance of the Hades Tribe, Lin Feng was not at all worried that the White Tiger Grand Sage will rebel. Compared to Humans, the greatest target, the one the White Tiger Grand Sage viewed with the greatest hostility, was actually the Hades.

The White Tiger Grand Sage, who has previously isolated himself for cultivation, appeared at this moment, and can be used to deal with the Hades. The White Tiger Grand Sage himself, meanwhile, could not be happier about this either.

“For Yan Nanlai to use the Blood Soul Pacification Spell, there are many restrictive conditions. First, the range is limited; he has to approach close to the Emperor of the Dead and Yan Xinghe, and he needs time to cast the spell as well. If he is pursued by the Hades, even if he could avoid death, he would not be able to cast the spell,” Shi Tianhao said. “Apart from him, it would be hard for anyone else to pinpoint the location of the Emperor of the Dead and the others. So, let’s give him a little help. However, right now, I have not finished this cultivation; I still need some time, and before that, Sir, it looks like you have to go first.”

The White Tiger Grand Sage did not say anything else. Transforming into a brilliant comet, he streaked into the distance.

Turning his head, Shi Tianhao looked at the Lu Yuan Grand Sage. “You should go with the White Tiger Grand Sage. According to Master, there are at least three Hades Beasts in pursuit. The Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes is already rushing over with the Eternal Heavenly Spear, and I will catch up quickly as well.”

The Lu Yuan Grand Sage opened his mouth a little, reluctant. In the previous War of the Two Worlds, although he did not have the cultivation level he has today, he saw clearly how terrifying the Hades was.

However, after a shake of his head, he still strode forward, following in the direction of the White Tiger Grand Sage.

Yan Nanlai, flying through the Void, couldn’t help but feel slightly surprised when he sensed that Xiling City was still standing. However, quickly, he sensed that powerful signatures were closing in towards him.

His brows raised slightly, but after an instant, he received the Mana voice projection from the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes.

After listening to the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes’s brief of the situation, Yan Nanlai replied, “Sorry for the trouble.”

Right now, he could not spare even a second. Without the time to exchange pleasantries, he simply flew towards the distance at top speed.

Meanwhile, the White Tiger Grand Sage, along with the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes and the Lu Yuan Grand Sage – who arrived soon after – stopped after Yan Nanlai, intercepting the Hades masters who pursued him all the way from Mount Baiyun.

At this moment, the Void opened up. As purple light flashed, three tall Hades Beasts, standing erect on two legs, strode out from within.

At their head, Zhanming’s gaze swept past the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes and the Lu Yuan Grand Sage without pausing, finally halting on the White Tiger Grand Sage.

The gaze of the White Tiger Grand Sage, freezing cold without the slightest hint of warmth, landed on the three Hades Beasts in front of him as well.

Beside Zhanming, one of the Hades Beasts, whose features resembled a human teenager, grinned, showing his fangs. “So, pure-blooded White Tigers can be domesticated like a dog as well?”

The Hades Tribe has heard of the events of yesteryear – when Lin Feng traveled to the Barren Expanses and captured a White Tiger alive – as well, from Prince Jingfang of the Great Qin, Shi Lin, and the Lightning Swordmaster’s Ben Leizi.

“Ningfeng, although he is intercepting us on the orders of the Leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, without the Leader, he would be hostile to our Tribe as well and strike if the opportunity presents itself,” Zhanming said emotionlessly. “After all, his father fell to the Master of our Tribe.”

Ningfeng grinned, showing his fangs. “Ah, I’ve heard of that. When the Master has just attained Vipralopa, he slew that Vipralopa-stage White Tiger.”

The White Tiger Grand Sage stared at the three Hades Beasts in front of him coldly. Without any more empty words, he materialized his true form right away. With a long howl, he caused the constellations to shake; the brilliant stars started to fall downwards like a meteor shower, smashing towards Zhanming and the other Hades.

Zhanming said coldly, “Leave this White Tiger to me, and you deal with the other two yourselves. Try your best to give chase; although we don’t know what that Great Void Sect cultivator wants to do, but just don’t let him succeed.”

As he finished his sentence, he let out a long howl towards the sky as well. The three horns on top of his head flashed as large amounts of silver fur grew out of his body. Purple light flashed rapidly, and his body grew in size significantly.

Facing the White Tiger Grand Sage’s Comet of the White Tiger Abhijna, halos flew out of the three long horns atop Zhanming’s head one after another, sliding themselves onto the falling stars.

Although the splendor of the stars was still bright after being bound by the halos, they instantly became calm, no longer as destructive and savage as previously.

The glare within the White Tiger Grand Sage’s eyes was cold and still. The starlight from the multitude of stars, bound by the halos, suddenly started to darken rapidly. All energy began to collapse towards the center, betraying an air of finality, of annihilation.

None other than another of the White Tiger Tribe’s Unique Gifts, Destruction Death Star.

As the demonic powers exploded, the stars annihilated rapidly, and along with them, the halos bounding them shattered as well.

However, with a flash, Zhanming was already in the Void. Immediately, his claw hurtled at the White Tiger Grand Sage, leaving streaks of light that ripped open the Heavens!

Looking at Zhanming battle the White Tiger Grand Sage, the Lu Yuan Grand Sage and the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes both felt heaviness in their hearts. Although they have long known about the strength of the Hades Tribe, at this moment, the shock still surfaced in their hearts.

The White Tiger Grand Sage was only one last tribulation away from completing the Cardinal Tribulations and attaining Vipralopa stage. As a pure-blooded White Tiger, his Abhijnas and demonic powers were strong, and he was incredibly adept at combat as well. Even among all Cardinal Tribulations Beginning Stage Demons, he was among the top tier; in battles of life and death, he exceeded even the Azure Sky Dragon King, as well as the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage and the Yellow Plains Dragon King before they completed their Tribulations.

Meanwhile, his opponent, Zhanming, still has quite a bit to go before completing the Cardinal Tribulations. However, in battle with the White Tiger Grand Sage now, he did not fear him the slightest.

“Lu Yuan…I have not tried it before. Grand-uncle Qingluan said that the brain of the Lu Yuan tastes rather good…I had not thought that today, I will be able to taste something new.” At this moment, Ningfeng suddenly laughed lazily. The next instant, transforming into a streak of purple light, he was already right in front of the Lu Yuan Grand Sage and the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes!
