My Fierce Tigress Wife-Chapter 194 - Battle, Nothing They Could Do

Chapter 194: Battle, Nothing They Could Do

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Besides, there was nothing else he could do about it at the moment.

He could only give it a go.

With all three Extreme Dao Special Abilities operating at full power, his combat power was exhibited to its fullest among the 150 peak-level Seventh Floor water dragons.

To be honest, while the blow that he had dealt at full force just now might seem powerful and contain great might that went straight to peak-level Divine Body Realm—according to the humans’ strength scale, it could be considered as having reached the Eleventh Floor, which was one floor higher than the Ten Floors itself; that had never been his forte.

With the Extreme Agility Movement of Dao, speed was what he was truly adept at.

As a result, the close combat he was currently engaging in was his forte.

Fighting head-on like what he had done just now instead wasn’t.

Battling over 100 peak-level Seventh Floor water dragons just so happened to suit him the best.

His combat power was fully exhibited without a doubt.

In no time, the sight flabbergasted even Jin Qiong and the other dragons.

The 150 water dragons were being depleted at an alarming rate.

They constantly broke and shattered before coalescing again.

It might seem like the number of water dragons hadn’t decreased at all and that they could wear down the other party even to the point of death, yet they couldn’t see any hope of victory.

It wasn’t as if the water dragons hadn’t managed to strike him at all during all this time.

Yet, it was useless. He seemed absolutely fine even when a water dragon landed a blow on him at full force. On the contrary, he even took the great opportunity to massacre the water dragons en masse.

It was as if he had deliberately taken the hit so that he could get an opportunity to land hits on one and kill even more water dragons.

Jin Qiong and the other dragons felt their blood running cold as they watched on.

They had never ever imagined that the Divine Body Realm could actually be this powerful!

Surely, even legendary existences weren’t this strong when they were still in the Divine Body Realm, right?

His momentum was very much unparalleled, irresistible, and capable of sweeping through everything.

Should they face him one-on-one…

The thought caused a powerless sensation to go through them. They felt like ants that were facing a Ground Limits Realm cultivator who seemed capable of taking their lives with just a single breath.

The Overturn Oceans Formation they were currently in was the only thing that gave them a sense of security.

“Third Prince, how about we kill Di Zun’s subordinates first?” A golden dragon suggested somewhat hesitantly.

Given the number of water dragons and their level of combat power, he was confident that they could kill the other Divine Body Realm cultivators. Even Di Zun himself wouldn’t be able to save them.

Jin Qiong thought for a moment. Then, he shook his head and said solemnly, “Di Zun’s subordinates are nothing. He’s the biggest obstacle standing in the way of our invasion of this world instead.

“Now’s our best chance to kill him while he’s still willing to spend his time on us. We mustn’t give up this chance so easily.

“Just let his subordinates attack instead. If we kill them, Di Zun will probably leave right away.

“Since he wants to spend his time on us right now, with our hordes of marine species troops; it’s not as if we won’t be able to wear him down anyway. I simply don’t believe that we can’t kill him!”

After a moment’s thought, the rest of the golden dragons realized that that was indeed the case. This was exactly their best chance to get rid of that so-called Di Zun.

Otherwise, given his speed, it really would be very difficult for them to kill him.

Hei Fan and the other Divine Body Realm cultivators besieging them were also secretly watching their King while they fought.

After all, none of them had submitted to him by their own volition.

In a dangerous battlefield like this, they naturally kept a constant eye on the Tiger King who had forced them into pledging allegiance, so that they could find an opportunity to leave as soon as possible.

However, the more they watched, the more they despaired.

They had only sensed his powerful might from a distance away just now. Thus, they didn’t have any concrete idea how strong he was exactly and merely knew that they were powerless to resist him.

It was only when they personally witnessed his invincible strength in this instant that they finally formed a vague idea—invincible, unstoppable, and irresistible.

Hei Fan was also one of them. Capable of dominating everything in the world, the Tiger King’s invincible combat power filled even him with disbelief that this level of combat power was something that someone could actually possess at the Divine Body Realm instead of the Ground Limits Realm like his father.

He was so powerful that it filled him with despair.

Hei Fan couldn’t help but feel like he wouldn’t be able to do anything about the Tiger King even if he were to stand right there and do nothing.

Even the little ideas hidden in his mind had mostly soundlessly disappeared.

On the battlefield, even though Wang Hu was constantly depleting his divine power; the more he fought, the more euphoric he felt.

All the blood in him was boiling in excitement as he unleashed all of his battle spirit.

He could genuinely feel his level of combat power improving.

It wasn’t limited to just combat skills and the ability to counter various situations in battle.

His bloodline and body were both also showing signs of improvement.

It might sound very incredible, but that was indeed the case.

It was as though every part of him was cheering in joy and delight.

At the same time, his comprehension and cultivation of the White Tiger Battle Art’s second stage were also improving very quickly.

The Overturn Oceans Formation was practically the most suitable opponent for him.

Not only was it powerful enough to bring out his full strength, but he could also attack it without damaging it because the other party could constantly create new water dragons.

One could say that it was only at this point that he finally got his pre-battle wish of having a good fight.

The more he fought, the happier he was. In fact, he had already lost himself in it somewhat.

For the very first time, he felt that battling was something very fun and enjoyable.

The ones in the past weren’t battles but massacres. It didn’t make him feel the way he was currently feeling at all.

Roar!

Roar!

Tiger growls and dragon roars continuously interlaced with one another, traveling from the bottom of the ocean into the far distance.

Gradually, the roars and growls started to reverberate constantly even in the sky and the entire ocean.

Di Baijun, Dong Pingtao, and the others couldn’t see the battlefield, so all that reached them was just the roars and growls. However, based on these sounds alone, they could already imagine how fierce the battle taking place in the ocean must be.

“A battle between dragons and tigers¹… this is a battle between dragons and tigers indeed.”

In the capital of China, as though he couldn’t hold it in anymore after such a long time, Li Aimin made a comment with fairly complicated emotions in his voice as he stared hard at the video where only the churning ocean was visible.

His tightly-clenched, aged hands gave away how tense he was currently feeling.

No one replied to him. Everyone’s eyes were glued to the video and never once left it for even a moment.

Their similarly tense bodies were the only indication that they were just as nervous as Li Aimin.

The other alliances, especially the Russia Alliance and the Japan Alliance, were also very nervous.

The longer the battle dragged on, the more indicative it was of the marine species troops and the Dragon Clan world’s strength.

As countries near the Dragon Clan world, they were naturally worried.

Even the Tiger King was having such a hard time—let alone them?

In the blink of an eye, another ten minutes or so went by.

Like a flash of lightning, Wang Hu killed another two water dragons at one go. Then, he mentally let out a sigh and separated himself from his state of euphoria.

He was only left with 40% of his divine power.

He couldn’t continue this anymore.

His gaze swept across the shield out of the corner of his eye. Under Hei Fan and the other Divine Body Realm cultivators’ continuous attacks, the ripples going through its surface had intensified significantly as compared to in the beginning.

Evidently, the other party wasn’t having such an easy time either. As more and more energy was consumed, the Overturn Oceans Formation was also gradually weakening.

Half a minute later, he suddenly narrowed his eyes a little… and a sharp, chilly look flashed across them.

Roar!

With another deep roar, an endless aura of murderous balefulness surged out of him.

The golden lightning spear appeared for the third time.

It came without any warning and was so fast that Jin Qiong and the others couldn’t even quite react in time.

By the time they finally realized what was going on and tried furiously to put more power into the shield, the golden lightning spear had already crashed into the shield’s edge once more.

Crack!

A soft yet awfully clear sound of something breaking rang out in all the Divine Body Realm cultivators’ ears.

Jin Qiong and the other dragons’ expressions changed dramatically.

As for Wang Hu, he had already charged into that edge of the Overturn Oceans Formation and was wantonly massacring everyone there.

He left behind no survivors in his wake.

Chaos broke out in the part of the Overturn Oceans Formation where he was, and the marine species troops fled in all directions in fear and panic.

A vicious look appeared on Jin Qiong’s countenance, upon which the Ocean-Suppressing Seal emitted a dazzling glow. The shield, which had broken and formed a hole, shrank right away; shutting out Wang Hu and the chaotic marine species troops.

At the same time, Jin Qiong also led the Overturn Oceans Formation and retreated backward. The 100-odd water dragons that had shrunk in size no longer attempted to kill Di Zun anymore. Instead, they charged toward Hei Fan and the other Divine Body Realm cultivators.

“Hmph. We certainly can’t kill you, Di Zun, but all of your subordinates can forget about getting out alive!” Jin Qiong yelled, his voice full of rage and killing intent.

Wang Hu frowned and cast a glance at the now-restored shield. After sensing the remaining 30% of divine power in his body, he heaved a sigh mentally.

These worms were surprisingly decisive and resolute.

The hard-won opportunity that he had gotten after waiting for so long was gone.

Without any hesitation, he quickly stood in front of Hei Fan and the other Divine Body Realm cultivators. In an imposing manner, he ordered, “Retreat.”

Once the enemy stopped focusing on trying to kill him, the water dragons would very easily kill Hei Fan and the others.

Since he couldn’t destroy the Overturn Oceans Formation anyway, then there wasn’t any need for him to lose that many Divine Body Realm subordinates.

After all, while none of them was loyal to him, they were still of use.

Hei Fan and the others heaved sighs of relief and hastily retreated.

Upon seeing that Wang Hu was standing at the front, the water dragons didn’t attack either. Jin Qiong led the water dragons and the entire marine species troops and quickly retreated into the depths of the ocean.

Wang Hu let out an icy snort. After waiting for Hei Fan and the others to retreat to a certain distance away, he moved toward tens of thousands of marine species troops that had been shut out after he broke the Overturn Oceans Formation shield just now.

These tens of thousands of marine species troops were currently chasing desperately after the troops that Jin Qiong had led away.

At the sight of Wang Hu attacking them, they became even more frightened and horrified.

Jin Qiong tried to use the water dragons to stop Wang Hu.

However, just like how Wang Hu wouldn’t have been able to save Hei Fan and the others if they were to come under the water dragons’ attack, the water dragons couldn’t save all the tens of thousands of marine species troops currently under Wang Hu’s attack either.

The water dragons couldn’t keep up with his fearsome speed at all. All they could do was try their best to protect part of the troops as they retreated.

One party retreated while the other party pursued them.

In the blink of an eye, they were back where they had started.

Wang Hu managed to kill five Divine Body Realm cultivators. As for the 20,000-strong Second Realm marine species troops, the remaining soldiers had all fled to the main forces and were hiding behind the shield.

Upon their return to the depths of the ocean, the water dragons that had shrunk became a little bigger again.

Evidently, they were stronger in the deep ocean.

At this point, as though a tacit agreement, both parties silently stopped attacking.

Poised and ready to go, the 100-odd water dragons stared hard at Wang Hu as if they might dive toward him any moment.

However, the reservations in Jin Qiong and the others’ eyes were unconcealable.

Wang Hu’s imposing aura was as cold, haughty, and domineering as ever—except that he was also frowning inwardly.

There really was nothing he could do about them at the moment.

With the ability to both attack and defend, the Overturn Oceans Formation was mysterious and wondrous indeed.

Had he not made use of their intentions to kill him and lured them to shallow waters just now while Hei Fan and the other made use of the opportunity to attack; coupled with how he had caught them off-guard and even attacked the edge where the defense was the weakest, he wouldn’t have been able to gain any sort of real upper hand.

Were they to really engage in a war of attrition, there was undoubtedly no way that he would ever win.

His only remaining 30% divine power didn’t allow him to do anything more either.

However, there was no way they could make him back off.

If worse came to worst, he would just drag it on like what he was currently doing. Given his speed, as long as he didn’t try to defeat them, he would still be able to strive for enough time to recover some strength.

It was just that the situation wouldn’t reflect well on him when that happened.

In the Overturn Oceans Formation, Jin Qiong and the other dragons—who were also hesitant and of two minds—started to discuss the issue.

Were they going to continue the battle?

Even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to take the other party’s life. In fact, they might even suffer losses if they weren’t careful.

Yet, if they didn’t, then were they going to give up on invading this world?

“Third Prince, Di Zun must be the Tiger King who’s hailed as the strongest in this world. He isn’t human.

“His territory is located behind the South Korea Alliance, so it’s understandable that he would come forward to stop us.

“Why don’t we withdraw for now? At worst, we’ll start invading this world from somewhere else instead of the South Korea Alliance and deal with the Tiger King at the end.” A golden dragon suggested seriously after some discussion.

“But what if Di Zun continues to stop us even when we start the invasion from other alliances’ territories?” Another golden dragon asked with a frown.

“In that case, let’s make our stance clear first. If he insists on stopping us, then we’ll spare no costs and fight him to the death after making fool-proof preparations,” replied the first golden dragon coldly.

“I agree. We don’t have any way of dealing with Di Zun at the moment. Besides, we’ll also be more prepared by then, so our chances of victory will definitely be a lot higher.” Another golden dragon said.

After thinking about it carefully, the dragons nodded in approval of the plan.

Jin Qiong also nodded. After some more discussion, they settled on their plan.

“Di Zun.”

Jin Qiong shouted and took a few steps forward, glaring coldly at the person standing opposite him. With his momentum as imposing as ever, he shouted, “You’re very strong, surprisingly so. Today, we shall give in to you a little.

“However, you won’t be able to stop us from invading this world. Our final showdown will come the next time we meet.

“Retreat!”

Roar!

Several dragon roars rang out. Without dismissing the Overturn Oceans Formation, the marine species troops kept the shield up and went far into the distance under the protection of over 100 water dragons.

Wang Hu watched them coldly. A hint of hesitation flashed across his countenance. However, he didn’t pursue them.

It was pointless to do so anyway. If all went according to expectations, they would definitely return straight to their world and make a comeback after that.

When that happened, would they come and deal with him straightaway? Or would they choose to break through from other alliances’ locations?

There was no way of knowing.

With a flash of golden light, he transformed from his tiger form back into his Dao form.

He didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he watched quietly as he recovered his strength so that he could be sure that the other party had really retreated.

Several seconds later, Hei Fan and the other Divine Body Realm cultivators arrived.

All of them stood reverently behind Wang Hu; none of them daring to say much.

Suddenly, Hei Fan offered up his cell phone with both hands and said respectfully, “Your Majesty, it’s a video call from the Queen.”

Wang Hu took the cell phone from him. He created a sound barrier and looked at the screen.

At the sight of Wang Hu, Silly Girl looked obviously relieved.

Wang Hu’s expression softened a little, and he said warmly, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I’ll talk to you in detail when I return.”

Di Baijun nodded and ended the call without any hesitation.

Another brief period of silence later, when he saw that the marine species troops had fully withdrawn; Wang Hu finally turned around and ordered, “Let’s go.”

Hei Fan and the other 100-odd Divine Body Realm cultivators responded and followed after him.

Light shot out of the sea and toward the Tiger King’s Cave.

The alliances around the world naturally noticed the sight. All of them became even more curious.

How exactly had the battle turned out?

They could guess the victor and the loser, but how many casualties had the marine species troops suffered?

This was what they were the most concerned about instead.
