Chapter 1599: Ancient Mystery, Riding a Tiger (Second Update)

Wang Lin stepped forward. As he approached, the roar of the dao ancient head shook the heavens. The booming sound spread in all directions, causing the earth to collapse once again. As the sky churned, that roar became the loudest sound in the world.

Under this roar, sound waves surged, passing Wang Lin's body and directly approaching the massive White Tiger.

As the sound waves struck, the White Tiger's entire body immediately twisted, showing faint signs of collapse. However, it still persisted, though its retreat became even more hurried.

This fierce tiger, despite possessing supreme majesty, was still inferior to Wang Lin. As Wang Lin moved forward, he raised his right hand and pointed fiercely ahead. With this point, the dao ancient head behind him roared and shot out, passing through Wang Lin's body to viciously devour the White Tiger.

From afar, this scene was enough to stir the Soul. The collapsing sky seemed to be split into two, turning into halves: one side was the heaven-reaching dao ancient head, and the other was the massive, heaven-shocking White Tiger.

These two behemoths, one advancing and one retreating, saw the distance between them shrink rapidly. In almost an instant, the dao ancient head approached the White Tiger, its wide-open mouth roaring as it moved to devour the beast.

Booming sounds erupted. The collision between the dao ancient head and the White Tiger unleashed a shockwave that shook the entire Ancient Immortal Realm. The earth collapsed over a vast area, and even some of the countless Ancient Three Races statues behind the four statues exploded directly.

This shockwave echoed out, as if to destroy the entire Ancient Immortal Realm.

Under this impact, the White Tiger's massive body collapsed, turning into specks of white light that dissipated in all directions. Within its collapsing body, the white-haired old man spat out a mouthful of blood. His body staggered and tumbled backward, crashing with a loud boom into the mountain-like statue where he had been healing.

Cracking sounds emerged as the statue, struck by the old man, developed countless Rifts that spread across its entire body, looking as if it could collapse and shatter at any moment.

Similarly, Wang Lin's body was pushed back by the impact. His face was slightly pale, but the cold light in his eyes grew even more intense amidst his calm demeanor.

This battle was Wang Lin's strongest fight without using the Li Guang Bow! He was not fighting a Cultivator, nor an Outer Realm powerhouse, but one of the Four Great War Generals of the Immortal Venerable that had existed since the ancient times: the White Tiger Battle General!

The White Tiger Battle General had a long Lifespan. He did not belong to the Inner Realm or the Outer Realm, but came from the mysterious Immortal Astral Continent. He was an Immortal, a true Immortal!

His Bloodline contained Immortal power; in terms of level, it far surpassed Wang Lin!

If not for his severe injuries from back then, which had yet to fully recover, it would have been much harder for Wang Lin to fight this person. But in a life-and-death battle, one does not speak of whether the two sides are evenly matched; life is life, and death is death!

As Wang Lin retreated, the dao ancient head and the phantoms of the Ancient Three Races, caught in the collision with the White Tiger, also retreated. The phantoms of the Ancient Three Races collapsed directly, leaving only the dao ancient head remaining at the top of the sky, slightly dispersed.

Wang Lin's cultivation was at the Middle Stage of Void Spirit, but if his dao ancient Physical Body and Divine Ability were added, he was enough to fight an empty profound Early Stage Cultivator. Even if the opponent's cultivation exceeded the empty profound Early Stage, Wang Lin possessed the Li Guang Bow; once this bow was brought out, the power of a single arrow would be heaven-shocking!

The white-haired old man was embedded in the statue where he had been healing. At this moment, his expression was ferocious, and his eyes revealed deep apprehension. However, this apprehension was not enough to make him retreat. He was the White Tiger Battle General, a citizen of the Immortal Astral Continent, one of the Four Great War Generals under the Seven-Colored Immortal Venerable!

He had experienced countless battles, and had even lived through the Immortal Cave change of the past. He had his proud dignity, and he could not allow a Cultivator who was a mere ant from the Lower Realm to defeat him!

Even if this ant-like Cultivator had struck fear deep within his heart, he forcibly suppressed this fear!

"The Dao of the Western White Tiger, the power of the seven mansions of the starry sky, the metal of all things and vegetation. My White Tiger Legacy condenses supreme power into the great technique of my White Tiger race! Seal and destroy this person, the technique of Riding a Tiger!"

As the white-haired old man roared, he pressed his hands against the statue beside him. His body flew out of the depression amidst a boom. As he waved his arms and performed Hand Seals, his white hair scattered. His eyes revealed monstrous ferocity as he suddenly pointed both hands at Wang Lin.

With this point, the endless white light that the White Tiger had turned into, which had dissipated into the world, reappeared in an instant. Centering on Wang Lin, it gathered with an indescribable speed.

In an instant, beneath Wang Lin, this endless white radiance transformed back into that heaven-shocking White Tiger. From afar, it looked as if Wang Lin was standing on the White Tiger.

A thick pressure erupted directly from the White Tiger, causing the sky around Wang Lin to instantly feel as if it were being sealed. This pressure continued to condense, eventually turning into a massive Seal.

This Seal pressed entirely down on Wang Lin. It was invisible, but Wang Lin could feel it clearly. His expression was grave; the pressure of this Seal locked down everything in the world around Wang Lin, making his body feel as if it had sunk into a quagmire, and even his breathing became heavy.

Thumping sounds came from within Wang Lin's body. This power of the Seal spread entirely from the White Tiger beneath him, preventing Wang Lin from leaving its body. As time passed, the pressure of the Seal became even more formidable. Faintly, it seemed as if invisible hands were pressing down on Wang Lin's body, forcing him closer to the White Tiger beneath him, making his body stand completely on the White Tiger, unable to leave even a fraction.

The White Tiger roared, its fur standing on end; from afar, it looked like countless white plants dancing. Its body coiled up in the sky, and bursts of blinding white light spread from its body. Faintly, countless runes flickered within it.

These runes were like marks. After appearing in large numbers, it was as if this massive White Tiger had transformed into a living Seal! As more and more runes appeared within the White Tiger's body, in just an instant, the White Tiger's body suddenly changed, turning into a huge white Vortex.

Inside this Vortex, endless runes circled, and bursts of tiger roars shook the heavens. The Vortex spun with a rumble. Up close, it looked like a Vortex, but if one gazed carefully from afar, one could vaguely see that it was not a Vortex at all; it was the massive White Tiger running in circles beneath Wang Lin. Because its speed was too fast, it had formed this huge Vortex.

The suction of this Vortex was astonishing, and combined with the power of the Seal, it made it impossible for Wang Lin to walk out of there. It was like a Mortal riding a tiger that they could not dismount, unable to break free from the fierce tiger.

This was the Divine Ability of the White Tiger Battle General, Riding a Tiger! This technique was a Divine Ability, and it was also a Seal!

"White Tiger Spirit rise, take this person's Soul and Primordial Spirit, and suppress them beneath the Immortal Cave, suppress them beneath the Seven Dao Heaven Mountain of the Immortal Astral Continent!" The white-haired old man's expression was ferocious, and as he waved his arms, his voice boomed out.

Following his voice, a heaven-shocking tiger roar immediately emerged from the Vortex, and a fierce tiger about several dozen zhang in size flew directly out of the Vortex.

This White Tiger was the White Tiger Spirit, just like a Cultivator's Primordial Spirit!

As its body rushed out of the Vortex, it twisted continuously, becoming long and thin, but its majesty was even more intense. After appearing, the White Tiger Spirit roared and headed straight for Wang Lin. It did not devour him, but instead twisted like a python and coiled around Wang Lin's body. Its tiger mouth opened, moving to swallow Wang Lin's heavenly spirit, intending to take his body back into the Vortex below.

If he were taken away by it, Wang Lin would be suppressed at the very bottom of the Inner Realm and Outer Realm of this Immortal Cave, and would be suppressed to death alive!

This Divine Ability of the white-haired old man was something Wang Lin had never seen in his life. This kind of Divine Ability did not belong to this world, but came from the Immortal Astral Continent. Wang Lin's expression was gloomy. His body was coiled by the White Tiger Spirit, and at the moment the tiger's mouth was about to swallow, he raised his left hand and pressed it directly into the tiger's mouth.

"What a fine 'Riding a Tiger'! Today, I, Wang Lin, will not dismount this tiger. Since you have chosen to suppress me, then let's see whether this White Tiger suppresses me, or is subdued by me!"

A flash of killing intent appeared in Wang Lin's eyes. He did not use any Divine Ability, but closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the Qi of his entire body changed instantly. The Aura of a contemporary great scholar erupted from his body.

At this moment, he was not a Cultivator; he was a great scholar! He was a great scholar who had understood the principles of the heavens and earth, knew that everything was just an Immortal Cave, and knew everything!

Under this Aura of the great scholar, Wang Lin feared nothing. His calm gaze revealed a power of righteousness. He turned his head to look at the tiger spirit that was coiled around his body, its mouth held down by his left hand. With one glance, the righteous Aura of his entire body pressed directly down upon the tiger spirit.

In Wang Lin's eyes at this moment, this tiger spirit was not something transformed by an Immortal Beast Divine Ability, but was simply an ordinary tiger from the Mortal world!

"You dare to swallow me!" Wang Lin spoke slowly. His eyes suddenly widened, staring at the tiger spirit, his expression imposing without anger. The righteous Qi of the great scholar within his body did not even fear heaven and earth; how could it fear this little tiger!

The tiger spirit coiled around his body trembled directly, and its eyes revealed a trace of fear. Within its mind, an indescribable thought arose. This thought seemed to let it see cycles of Reincarnation and Karma again and again, and saw scenes of its White Tiger Spirit race's ancestors kneeling on the ground and worshipping the sky when the Immortal Astral Continent first opened.

It did not know why such thoughts arose, but under these thoughts, it felt a fear that came from its Soul!

Wang Lin's words rang out, and he seemed to have transformed into heaven and earth, pressing down upon the tiger spirit. This power of suppression contained the insights of Wang Lin's entire life, contained his three dao void Origins, and contained his supreme majesty!

The tiger spirit let out a whimper. Amidst the white-haired old man's disbelief, it loosened its grip on Wang Lin's body, retreated a few steps, and lowered its tiger head toward Wang Lin.

—— The second update is delivered. I will continue to write the third update, which might be a bit slower. I just returned from Beijing and am very tired after two consecutive days of outbursts. Please wait patiently; I will write it carefully.
