Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 492: A Bloody Fight

In the natural world, there was little interference between elephants on one side and lions and tigers on the other. The issue of bloodline suppression wasn’t a thing, but either way, they hardly ever fought against each other. However, lions and tigers were the true kings of beasts—one ruled the grasslands, the other the forest.

On the other hand, when clans of the lion and tiger races faced the Golden Mammoth clan, not being suppressed by their bloodline could be considered quite the achievement. After all, their golden lineage was only a second-tier bloodline, while the Golden Mammoths’ was first tier.

Yet now, given that the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint suppressed the Golden Mammoth with his bloodline power, it meant his bloodline tier was not only not inferior to his opponent's, but actually surpassed it! No Lion Demon or Tiger Demon had ever possessed such a strong bloodline besides the White Tiger Demon Emperor! How could the lion and tiger races’ noble members not be astonished?

As the roar erupted in mid-air, Big Cat gripped his sword with both hands, and the Lion-Tiger Golden Force surged. His eyes turned utterly white-hot, with platinum white light seeping from the corners. In this instant, his physique, bloodline power, and spiritual power all peaked, and he unleashed his full power with intense battle intent.

The Golden Mammoth swung its twin hammers upward, aiming at the diving Big Cat. This was a pure test of strength, leaving no room for trickery.

Clang!

The deafening crash momentarily paused the battles in the other two arenas. Many spectators in the stands covered their ears, yet their heads still buzzed.

Platinum and gold intermingled. The instantaneous clash was genuinely breathtaking.

The white-hot figure bounced back, flying out. But the golden-glowing figure didn't fare well either. It was simply driven into the stage up to its knees!

Big Cat flipped in mid-air and landed, staggering back five steps before steadying himself. A flush rose on his face.

His opponent, the Golden Mammoth contestant, had slightly bulging eyes, and the golden glow it radiated dimmed noticeably. The twin hammers it wielded bore obvious cuts.

Big Cat didn’t even give himself time to catch his breath. As soon as he steadied himself, he began another charge, leaping into the air with his heavy sword once more igniting in white-hot light. The fierce Lion-Tiger Golden Force burned anew.

ROOOAAARRR!

Another thunderous roar erupted as he struck at his opponent

At this moment, the Golden Mammoth hadn't yet pulled its legs from the ground, and the ferocious roar forced it to halt.

This guy...

As the blazing white light descended again, the golden aura rose once more to meet it.

Clang!

The second collision between hammers and sword erupted mere seconds after the first, and it was in no way quieter. The fierce clamor and explosive energy waves caused countless demon and nymph spectators to rise from their seats.

This was the battle they wanted to see—a powerful clash that made their blood surge. It was simply exhilarating!

Big Cat was again sent flying, but the Golden Mammoth was also driven further into the stage—it now buried halfway up the thighs.

As Big Cat landed, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His physical strength was not on par with his opponent’s; naturally, these intense, head-on physical collisions caused him more injury.

But even as he spat blood, he leaped high again, his heavy sword slashing toward his opponent for the third time. There was no hesitation, no sign of rest.

Fight till death. Just keep fighting!

BOOM!

The white and golden energies exploded. This time, it was clear that Big Cat's heavy sword was bending. Even under the reinforcement of Lion-Tiger Golden Force, it was barely holding up against such a ferocious clash.

Before Big Cat landed this time, he was already spewing blood mid-air. His opponent, the Golden Mammoth contestant, was also bleeding from both nose and mouth. For a Golden Mammoth to be injured like this, it was clear how brutal their collision had been. Moreover, the Golden Mammoth's legs had already sunk into the stage almost up to his waist.

He didn't get the chance to pull himself out, either—as soon as Big Cat landed, he ignored his injuries and crazily leaped up again. The heavy sword in his hand still emitted a blazing platinum light as he struck down once more.

This time, the look in the eyes of the Golden Mammoth contestant began to change. Is this guy fucking crazy?! He’s more injured than me, and he can’t possibly have my defense. Why? Why is he attacking so wildly without even giving himself a chance to catch his breath?

Although the Golden Mammoth's defense was strong, it had its limits! What terrified the demon was that even though the opponent was injured, each sword strike was more potent than the last, and its power more violent. As for the Golden Mammot’s twin hammers, though they were exceptional weapons, they were now covered in cuts. It couldn't dodge at all and had to take the hits head-on, unable to use its bloodline abilities properly.

But he had no more time to think as the heavy sword descended from the sky, fiercely slashing down. Even though the sword had bent a bit, its majestic momentum hadn't diminished in the slightest.

Boom!

This time, Big Cat wasn't flung far away but shot straight up into the air. The Golden Mammoth was now properly waist-deep in the ground, and it spat out a mouthful of blood. One of its war hammers had half of its head chopped off, which went to show the ferocity of that strike.

While in midair, Big Cat took a deep breath. He once more pumped bloodline energy into his Lion-Tiger Golden Force, and it burst out with even more dazzling brilliance. Descending from the sky, he struck down again, after an even shorter time.

Even though this was the fifth strike already and he was tired and injured, it was so majestic and overwhelming that the spectators were awed. No fancy moves—just pure power and relentless attacks.

"Ahhhh!"

The Golden Mammoth let out a roar, and the golden light it radiated suddenly surged as if it had ignited its energy. A golden halo even appeared behind its head. The ground around its embedded lower body began to crack, clearly showing that he was about to use a powerful move.

But then, the platinum light in mid-air flickered.

The platinum light from around the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint suddenly converged inward, completely merging into his heavy sword. Under the enhancement of the platinum light, the sword became almost transparent.

The golden blaze was directly split in half by the platinum light, and it continued unimpeded to clash once more with the mammoth demon’s hammers.

BOOM!!!

Both figures spewed blood simultaneously. Big Cat flew backward again, while the Golden Mammoth was now buried in the ground up to its chest.

Big Cat's heavy sword had been shattered, and so had the Golden Mammoth's twin hammers.

Both of their hands were split open, and blood was flowing like rivers.

Big Cat landed far away, staggering continuously and spitting blood before finally falling on his butt.

Even so, he still struggled to get up and walk toward the Golden Mammoth, step by step. And with each step, the platinum light ignited again, still blazing fiercely.
