Chapter 1660: Power of the Tiger Tooth
The Illusory Island was moving? Both Xiang Shaoyun and Little White wondered if they were seeing things. Even the local Gods who had managed to arrive near them wondered the same. None of the local Gods stopped, however, as they continued dashing toward the Illusory Island.
Xiang Shaoyun and Little White wasted no time either. They increased their speed as they chased after the moving island. At the same time, Xiang Shaoyun's eyes flickered with a unique radiance as he attempted to see through all that was fake. He felt that he was probably looking at some sort of illusion.
Yet when his gaze landed on the Illusory Island, he could see that the island looked incomparably real, with the usual mountains, water, and plants. It did not look like an illusion at all.
This is truly quite an illusive island, thought Xiang Shaoyun to himself.
He pushed the Sky Measuring Step to its limits while Little White stretched his white tiger wings even wider. The two streaked through the sky like a pair of meteors. They pierced through layer upon layer of space as they headed toward the Illusory Island.
"Bandits, scram!" Xue Xiong roared when he noticed Xiang Shaoyun and Little White. A furious ice palm was unleashed toward the two.
That was the attack of a fifth-stage God, an attack capable of breaking the sky itself. No ordinary person would be able to withstand such an attack. Xiang Shaoyun's soul clone hurriedly dragged his main body and Little White aside before swinging the Divine Yin Yang Sword in its hand.
Time seemed to stop as yin and yang swept forth, tearing through Xue Xiong's attack before slashing toward Xue Xiong's chest. Xue Xiong only felt the world flicker in front of him before a sword ray arrived right before him. Without any hesitation, he erected the strongest defensive barrier he could and blocked the sword ray.
Boom!
His sturdy body was sent flying, and a bloody gash appeared on his chest.
"Damn it! Something is weird about this kid!" Xue Xiong roared, stomped his foot, and soared toward Xiang Shaoyun and Little White. But before he could reach them, both of them vanished into thin air.
"Where are they? Why are they gone?" Xue Xiong was confused.
He soon realized that even the Illusory Island was nowhere to be seen. He started panicking. In truth, Xiang Shaoyun and Little White had not vanished. The two were still chasing the Illusory Island. Each time that they felt like they were getting near the island, they failed to actually reach the island itself. Suddenly, a terrifying water prison manifested around them.
"With the tiny bit of strength you have, you can be proud to have reached this far. Time for you to die," Lan Shuirou's voice rang out. She formed seal after seal with her hands, joining clump after clump of water energy to form a dreadful whirlpool that threatened to crush both Xiang Shaoyun and Little White into mincemeat.
"Roar! Boss, allow me to kill her!" Little White roared as he spat a tiger tooth out of his mouth. The tooth instantly enlarged, flooding its surroundings with a large amount of vicious tiger energy. Instantly, the whirlpool crumbled away into nothingness.
The tiger tooth was boundlessly powerful. Like a raging horn, it shot toward Lan Shuirou with an unparalleled sharpness. Lan Shuirou was given quite a shock, but as a fifth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator, she had incredible combat strength. She formed more hand signs, gathering numerous waves together before sending one massive wave toward the tooth.
Furious Overturning Ocean!
Lan Shuirou might look like a gentle beauty, but she was able to erupt with incomparably powerful strength. In fact, her strength was already reaching the level of a sixth-stage God. The massive wave swept toward the tooth, threatening not only to smash the tooth aside but also to kill both Xiang Shaoyun and Little White.
Roar!
Thick vicious tiger energy rippled out of Little White's eyes as he gathered more strength in his body. His fur stood on end as his growls rumbled in the air. A connection formed between him and the tiger tooth, pushing the tooth's strength to its limits. Xiang Shaoyun wanted to make a move as well, but he knew that this was Little White's fight. He shouldn't interfere.
Rumble! Rumble!
The tooth and the wave collided, sending water splashing everywhere. The shockwaves of the collision were enough to pulverize the bodies of even Saints. At the exact moment the tooth pierced through the wave, Little White spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backward.
Simultaneously, Lan Shuirou's arms exploded, and her face paled. With a look of indignance, she spun around and fled. She had not imagined that this white tiger that wasn't even a God yet could unleash such a terrifying attack. She did not dare to continue the fight for fear that she would no longer be able to try for the Illusory Island.
"Little White, are you fine?" asked Xiang Shaoyun as he arrived beside Little White with a flicker.
"I'm fine. I'm merely somewhat exhausted," replied Little White.
"Since she has backed away, let me carry you for now," said Xiang Shaoyun as he used his soul clone to drag both his main body and Little White forward.
Before long, they encountered a terrifying tsunami accompanied by a storm. The violent gale howled in the air while the sea turned and turned. Even those Demon God aquatic beasts were instantly torn apart the moment they got near the tsunami. Even the beasts trying to escape the tsunami were struck to death by the rain of lightning dropping from the sky.
Both Xiang Shaoyun and Little White paled. Even they would have a hard time against a force this powerful. Alas, they had to go through the storm if they wanted to reach the Illusory Island. An immensely challenging task lay ahead of them.
Xiang Shaoyun woke up Weili Yana, who had fainted earlier, and asked, "Yana, are we heading in the right direction?"
Weili Yana stretched out her senses before nodding. "Yes, it's right behind this storm. I can feel the seven-colored fantastical spring."
The seven-colored fantastical spring existed, but very few people had actually found it. It was even rumored that only ancient humans had managed to find the spring. No one else had found the spring since then. With her discerning heart, Weili Yana was able to form a bizarre connection with the seven-colored fantastical spring, allowing her to judge the spring's location.
Little White said, "I can also sense the aura of my race. It might be weak, but it is definitely there."
"Well, looks like we need to get through this storm," said Xiang Shaoyun solemnly.
Suddenly, they saw someone in the midst of the storm. That person was using all his strength to withstand the power of nature, and he was none other than Bing Ruogang. His arms emanated a terrifying power that transformed all the water around him into ice. Layer upon layer of ice took form as he attempted to turn the entire tsunami into ice. His body was unleashing a terrifying amount of power.
"Haha, only the threat of death can push me to the sixth stage of the Rebirth Realm. Break!" Bing Ruogang howled with laughter as he tore the frozen sea apart.
