The Heavenly King Covers the Earth Tiger, the Pagoda Shines Upon the Tiger Demon!

"Third Soul Skill: White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"

In an instant, Dai Mubai's muscles swelled, black stripes appeared across his skin, and his resistance to abnormal conditions, along with his attack power, defense, and strength, greatly increased.

Yet there was not the slightest trace of fear in Ning Rongrong's eyes.

For the past month, she had risen to train at the first light of dawn and was still meditating and tempering her body beneath the hanging moon.

Nourished by the body-tempering medicinal herbs her teacher had provided and paired with intense physical training, her physique had improved by the day and had already undergone its initial transformation.

According to Immortal Mountain's training standards, this initial transformation alone meant that an ordinary soul master had become vastly different from before, with a tremendous rise in strength.

If it had been over a month ago, Ning Rongrong would probably have been frightened to tears when faced with an assault-type soul master like Dai Mubai using a thousand-year soul skill to attack her.

But now, the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda Martial Soul appeared before Ning Rongrong, granting her buffs to strength and speed. She then assumed a Tai Chi Fist stance to meet her enemy.

Tai Chi: Commencing Posture.

Tai Chi: White Crane Spreads Its Wings.

"Want to fight? Come on."

"We of Immortal Mountain don't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of it either. Hmph."

Ning Rongrong gave a delicate snort.

Her training beneath that raging waterfall had been to comprehend the Tai Chi Fist techniques of using four ounces to move a thousand pounds, redirecting force, and gathering force.

The weight-bearing training of recent days had left her exhausted. She had been scorched by the blazing sun, battered by the waterfall, and lectured by her teacher. If she hadn't been able to look at her teacher's handsome, otherworldly face every day, she probably would have given up long ago.

She had been worrying over not having anywhere to vent!

"Seeking death!"

Under the effects of White Tiger Vajra Transformation, Dai Mubai became even more overbearing. Clenching his fist, he pounced at Ning Rongrong like a ferocious tiger.

At this critical moment, Chen Xin, who was observing from the shadows, instinctively triggered his protective instinct.

He sensed the killing intent on Dai Mubai and his gaze turned incomparably cold.

It was Ning Fengzhi who stopped him.

"Uncle Sword, wait a little longer. I want to see how strong Rongrong has become. Only then would she have the confidence to apply the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda's buffs to herself and fearlessly fight an assault-type soul master with the White Tiger Martial Soul."

"Fine, Fengzhi. But let me make this clear first: if Rongrong's life is ever in danger, then no matter who this brat is, this old man will personally intervene and kill him."

If it were anyone else, he might have considered maintaining the bearing of an expert.

But bullying Rongrong was unacceptable!

He regarded Ning Rongrong as his own granddaughter.

Ning Fengzhi nodded. Rongrong was the most talented soul master of this generation in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. If that Evil-Eyed White Tiger truly tried to kill her, then no matter who he was, he would pay a terrible price!

Meanwhile, facing Dai Mubai's furious assault, scenes of her teacher personally guiding her flashed through Ning Rongrong's mind. Her steps were steady as she used Parting the Wild Horse's Mane, moving slowly yet swiftly to evade his fist.

She immediately changed forms, taking a step back, lifting her knee, and bringing her fist past her forehead. With the bearing of Wu Song, she viciously punched Dai Mubai in the head.

Dai Mubai staggered back two steps from the blow, and a small bump rose on his forehead.

Ning Rongrong smiled. "This move is called Golden Rooster Stands on One Leg Strikes Tiger. And the tiger it strikes is a sickly tiger like you."

"Your mother's the sick one!"

Having suffered a setback, Dai Mubai flew into a rage.

Especially when Ma Hongjun added fuel to the fire from behind him.

"Damn, Boss Dai, at least I got beaten by that Immortal teacher from Immortal Mountain. Don't tell me you can't even beat an auxiliary-type soul master?"

"Shut the hell up! Watch closely how she dies! I'm going to fuck you first, then—"

"No manners. Slap yourself!"

Dai Mubai was still spouting threats.

Ning Rongrong used Left and Right Bow Stance. Her figure seemed to drift slowly, but she was actually incredibly fast. In an instant, she arrived before Dai Mubai and slapped him across the face, then sent him flying with an elbow strike.

Her teacher had said that Tai Chi Fist could cultivate one's body and temperament in peaceful times, but in actual combat, it could become a killing art.

Dai Mubai was stunned by Ning Rongrong's slap.

He had never expected anyone to dare slap him across the face.

It was something he could not endure. He felt that his dignity had been trampled beneath her feet.

"White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"

"White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"

"White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"

There was no doubt about it.

Dai Mubai had completely snapped.

What Ning Rongrong faced next was his frenzied, all-out assault.

Ignoring the expenditure of Soul Power, he continuously spat out clusters of White Tiger Fierce Light Waves.

Though Ning Rongrong had grasped some of the Tai Chi principles of using four ounces to move a thousand pounds, she had yet to master them.

Faced with the successive White Tiger Fierce Light Waves, she struggled to keep up and was forced back again and again.

But Ning Rongrong soon steadied herself.

"Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda, emerge!"

"Seven Treasures Have Names, first is strength!"

"Grow, grow, grow!"

Ning Rongrong quickly added another strength-enhancing buff to herself. Then, holding the Glazed Pagoda in her palm, she actually absorbed every ray of the White Tiger Fierce Light Waves into it.

The sight made Ning Fengzhi's eyes widen in shock.

Dai Mubai was equally dumbfounded. His mouth, which had been firing light waves, was already smoking, and he could hardly believe it.

"How is this possible? Does the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda have that kind of durability? Are you sure this is the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda and not the Seven Treasure Vajra Pagoda?!"

Ning Rongrong slowly emerged from the smoke of the Blazing Light Waves and snorted.

"Ignorant."

"You don't understand, do you?"

"My teacher told me that the strength of a Martial Soul depends on the strength of its soul master. As long as the soul master's physique is strong enough and their Soul Power pure enough, even a single drop of water can unleash tremendous energy."

"And my Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda has been strengthened!"

Her teacher had told her that the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda was originally an exceptional elemental vessel, but if it wanted to bear elements, the Martial Soul itself had to be strengthened.

Yet the glazed material of the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda was too brittle. That was why Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda soul masters had always been limited to being auxiliary-type soul masters.

The first step in modifying the Martial Soul was strengthening the Glazed Pagoda.

That was why Ning Rongrong's precious medicinal baths twice a day were not just for her; her Martial Soul had to soak with her as well.

Now, the glaze of her Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda was tempered glazed glass—extremely sturdy.

Moreover, glazed glass could absorb and reflect light, making it the bane of light-based skills!

"Take this!"

"Rongrong fights tigers, bold and skilled."

"The Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger, the pagoda shines upon the river demon!"

"Glazed Light Wave!"

Following Ning Rongrong's delicate shout.

The White Tiger Fierce Light Waves absorbed by the Glazed Pagoda were refracted at that moment. All the light waves condensed into an even stronger and larger wave of light, blasting fiercely toward Dai Mubai.

"Ahhh—"

A miserable scream rang out.

Dai Mubai's entire body was swallowed by the light of the Blazing Light Wave, and no one knew how far he was blasted away.

"Boss Dai! Boss Dai!"

"Damn, Boss Dai, how did you get charred?!"

When Ma Hongjun found Dai Mubai, he discovered that Dai Mubai's body had been scorched black by the light.
