Chapter 1434: White Tiger Crisis

As those black dots approached, the ground beneath everyone's feet trembled violently!

A thundering sound rolled in from the horizon's edge. Five gray shadows the size of hills rapidly enlarged in everyone's vision. A terrifying god-level might descended upon the earth, instantly pressing down on their shoulders like countless massive stones.

Under the pressure of five Divine Beast-level beings, the expressions of the Night Watch present turned grim. They knew that this time the enemy they faced was almost invincible for them, but only when they personally felt that terrifying pressure coming at them did they truly sense their own insignificance...

A few new recruits who had just graduated from the training camp couldn't stop their legs from trembling. Their eyes were filled with terror.

But there was one exception in the crowd.

Fang Mo's eyes had already taken on a bloodthirsty red hue. His body trembled slightly, and tiger stripes faintly appeared on his skin surface, like a provoked fierce beast letting out low growls.

At the same time, the beast tide originally rushing toward Jiangcheng City suddenly changed direction, rapidly heading toward where Fang Mo was. The earthquake grew more intense!

"They're coming our way?" Su Zhe's face turned somewhat pale.

"Just in time!" Li Zhenzhen gritted her teeth, her right hand gripping the longbow. "Everyone spread out later, try to delay them..."

"No."

Fang Mo suddenly spoke, interrupting Li Zhenzhen's words. The Night Watch squad members originally stationed in Jiangcheng City also looked at him in confusion.

"They sensed my White Tiger bloodline... Their target is me." Fang Mo's reddened eyes gradually transformed into vertical tiger pupils. His body rapidly expanded. "I can lead them away, draw them toward the uninhabited direction."

"...But they're so fast. Can you outrun them?" Li Zhenzhen hesitated, worried.

Fang Mo didn't answer. His body rapidly transformed into a heterochromatic white tiger within a faint white glow. Powerful tiger paws slammed against the ground as his massive form streaked away toward another direction!

The five gray giant silhouettes approaching from afar also changed course. Only then did everyone finally see their true forms clearly...

They were five gray-skinned rats the size of mountains!

"Rats? These are the Divine Beasts of the Heavenly Temple?" Seeing these enormous rats, Su Yuan's expression changed.

"Different cultural foundations. Creatures that symbolize filth and disaster in our eyes are sacred species that cannot be profaned in theirs." Su Zhe said solemnly. "These rats can burrow underground. Fang Mo is likely done for..."

Li Zhenzhen watched that white tiger racing across the earth, her eyes filled with worry.

...

Sky above.

"Why did they change direction and go directly for Fang Mo?" Cao Yuan saw this and asked in confusion.

"The White Tiger is the supreme Divine Beast of Great Xia. Its existence would naturally make these foreign Divine Beasts feel threatened. This is hostility written into their bloodline." An Qingyu pushed up her glasses. "They won't stop until the White Tiger is killed."

"...But if they don't head toward the area we prepared, our setup becomes useless."

Fang Mo's appearance caused the beast tide to deviate from its original trajectory and disrupted Lin Qiye's arrangements, though no one expected such a violent reaction toward the White Tiger.

Lin Qiye contemplated briefly. "It doesn't matter. If they can't find the forbidden incantation... then let the forbidden incantation go to them."

"Has the 【Boundaryless Domain】 around Jiangcheng City opened?"

"It was already open before we arrived, completely covering the entire city's perimeter. Even if an asteroid struck here, the city wouldn't notice anything unusual."

"Good."

Lin Qiye's figure flickered and rushed toward the earth below!

On the barren land, White Tiger Fang Mo's four limbs moved powerfully. His massive body, like a white bolt of lightning, sprinted toward the distant uninhabited mountains. Those vertical tiger pupils remained resolute.

The scorching blood flowed through Fang Mo's body. The fighting spirit and defiance ingrained in his instincts constantly urged him to turn back and fight these foreign Divine Beasts to the death, but his reason held him back, forcing him to flee into the distance.

Although the White Tiger within him was Great Xia's supreme Divine Beast, it was merely a soul form merged with his body. The power it could currently exert was at most one realm above Fang Mo's own—"Unmeasurable" level. Against those god-level giants, it would be certain death.

As Fang Mo ran desperately, the five gray rat shadows instantly dove into the earth.

Though they had vanished from the surface, Fang Mo could clearly sense several terrifying auras rapidly approaching him underground.

Even though Fang Mo had pushed his speed to the limit, the distance between them continued shrinking rapidly.

Just as those watching from afar felt their hearts rise to their throats, a deep crimson shadow dove down from the clouds!

Wind howled past Lin Qiye's ears. Within those calm eyes, a violet hue burst into bloom!

The Tyrant's presence descended upon the earth. The distant Night Watch felt as if an invisible hand was pressing down on their shoulders, their legs involuntarily wanting to kneel. Unprecedented fear and panic surged through them!

Not only them—even the five giant rats rapidly traversing underground and the Yaksha clinging to their bodies simultaneously froze. Then, a formless domain swept through the underground. Their abilities instantly failed, forcing them to be expelled from the depths of the earth!

Boom boom boom—!

Five giant shadows burst from the ground and crashed heavily onto the surface. Dust filled the sky as ear-piercing roars echoed across the heavens.

White Tiger Fang Mo abruptly stopped, looking back. That familiar aura entered his nose, and his eyes filled with joy!

"Lord Qiye!"

Lin Qiye stood within the dust, watching the beast horde before him. His eyes narrowed slightly.

"Fang Mo, step back a bit."

Fang Mo was stunned for a moment, then quickly retreated, leaving a large open space for Lin Qiye.

Lin Qiye took a deep breath, both hands slamming onto the ground. A strand of absolute darkness rapidly extended across the surface.

This darkness dyed the earth. Then the distant ground trembled violently. A patch of earth several kilometers in radius actually tore free from the ground, slowly rising toward the sky!

This heavy patch of earth was like a flat mountain peak. In mid-air, it flipped over and steadily hovered above Lin Qiye. With a light flick of his fingertips, countless patterns rapidly extended across the earth's surface!

The giant rats seemed to sense the danger, growling uneasily. Then the dozen or so Klein-realm peak Yaksha attached to their bodies went mad, flying furiously toward the nearby Lin Qiye!

Lin Qiye's lips parted slightly. A cryptic, low chant emerged from his throat...
