After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 65

In the middle of the Hengduan Mountain Range, a White Tiger was crouching in front of Lin Feng’s “grave”, staring intently at the grave without moving.

It had been several days since Qingning had left, and he had almost always been in this position.

Although he was a powerful demon, his tiger eyes had begun to show visible bloodshot veins after days of mental tension.

“This Lin Feng should be dead by now, right?” Xiaobai suddenly spoke in human language.

Lin Feng was just a Core Formation Initial Stage cultivator. With his vital energy depleted and being pressed by the heavy Zijun Blood Soil for over ten days, it was very unlikely that he could have survived.

But he was still uneasy. After all, Lin Feng was the Son of Destiny, and it shouldn’t be so easy to kill him.

The problem was…

In the first few days after Qingning left, there were indeed cultivators and powerful demons attacking, heavy rains falling, and other occurrences that seemed to be trying to help Lin Feng escape.

But in the last ten days, ever since he had brought a huge stone, carved it into a stele, and erected a grave marker for Lin Feng, such events had completely disappeared.

After frowning and pondering for a moment, he muttered to himself, “Should I dig it up and check?”

No sooner had this thought crossed his mind than his tiger eyes widened in shock as if struck by lightning!

Heaven was too cunning!

Heaven had actually made him have such a thought!

What if Lin Feng wasn’t completely dead yet?

Wouldn’t it be the same as releasing him?

Lifting its paw, Xiaobai patted his chest, still in shock.

It seemed that Heaven could control his thoughts! Terrifying!

He kept reminding himself that he was a tiger meant to defy the heavens!

From now on, he had to be extremely careful in his actions and must not fall for Heaven’s schemes!

“Qingning, I wonder when you’ll come back. Oh, this is tough,” Xiaobai sighed again.

As soon as the words left his mouth, his gaze hardened again.

Qingning had gone to defy the heavens on its behalf, and he had no idea what kind of hardships she was facing now!

How could he just sit here and sigh?

With a determined expression, Xiaobai continued to stare at the grave in front of him and declared resolutely,

“Hmph! Want to eat me? I’ll wear you out!”

Suddenly, its tiger ears twitched.

“Rustle—”

There was a sound like sand flowing from the grave!

What was happening?

Xiaobai was startled! He wanted to leave the grave to investigate but was worried that this was another one of Heaven’s tricks! He was torn.

But soon, he couldn’t sit still any longer. Because as the “rustle” sound became clearer, the grave in front of him seemed to be getting smaller!

Even so, Xiaobai still dared not dig up the grave.

He first circled around the grave, then let out a mighty tiger roar towards the sky!

“Roar—!”

The roar echoed around, shaking the ground, the force of the wind causing the trees to sway, and when it passed through the mountain ravines, it brought back echoes.

After the roar, Xiaobai’s body instantly grew several times larger.

The tiger stripes on his body, like black lightning, spread along his limbs.

His growing fangs protruded from his mouth, forming huge tusks.

“Sizzle—”

A sound akin to electricity crackled into the air as if the black tiger stripes had come to life, slithering across his body and trailing streaks of black lightning that flashed through the air, all in the blink of an eye.

The once seemingly adorable White Tiger had now transformed. Its fluffy ears sharpened, its round eyes narrowed and became tinged with blood, devoid of pupils.

The ferocious aura he emitted sent the lesser demons within a hundred li of the mountain range fleeing in panic while the great demons hurriedly concealed their presence.

In this state, he resembled a primordial beast, ready to choose its prey and devour anything at any moment!

“This is my strongest form! I’ll fight you to the death if you dare to come out!” White mist billowed from his mouth as Xiaobai spoke fiercely.

Regardless, he would never consider desecrating the grave!

However, after maintaining this appearance for a short while, not only did the “rustling” noise cease, but the grave mound that had been slowly shrinking also eerily stopped.

Xiaobai was somewhat bewildered.

He lifted his right paw, extended its sharp claws, and prodded the grave mound, shouting, “Lin Feng, if you have the guts, come out and fight me!”

Silence was the only response.

Xiaobai let out a sigh of relief, thinking to himself that if Lin Feng really did pop out, he would surely be scared to death.

Suddenly.

“Boom!”

A muffled sound erupted from the grave mound.

This startled Xiaobai into jumping up, and it quickly said, “Lin Feng! If you have any guts, just keep lying in there!”

As soon as the words fell, the grave mound in front of it seemed to be sucked in by a powerful force, collapsing inward at a visible rate.

Then, another “boom” sounded.

The grave… actually collapsed!

It turned into a deep pit!

Xiaobai was dumbfounded.

He lowered his massive head to inspect after regaining his senses.

Inside the deep pit, there appeared to be a small hole into which Zijun Blood Soil was continuously falling.

From the traces left beside the hole, it seemed someone had dug with their nails and a sharp tool.

This made Xiaobai’s whiskers on both sides twitch.

He didn’t understand.

When Lin Feng was buried alive, his vital energy was completely depleted. Even if it could slowly recover, he would still need vital energy to resist the weight of the Zijun Blood Soil.

Under such circumstances, how did he manage to dig a hole and escape?

Unable to figure it out, Xiaobai could only shout incredulously towards the hole,

“Lin Feng, are you a rat?!!”

……

The voice traveled through the deep hole, echoing into a natural cavern filled with dense spiritual energy and a greenish glow.

Occasionally, droplets of water would fall from the stalactites above, blossoming into ripples on the ground.

“Lin Feng, are you a rat?!!”

The echo reverberated within the cavern.

Hearing this, a dark-skinned youth sitting cross-legged on a piece of jade stone deep in the cavern slowly opened his eyes.

“Hmph, ignorant fool of a tiger!” Lin Feng sneered.

A rat?

Did a rat ever have as much luck as him?

Zijun Blood Soil often contained treasures of the same caliber.

When Lin Feng was buried alive, he thought his time was up, but to his surprise, he found a sixth-grade Obsidian Essence Stone beneath him!

The greatest use of this stone was to rapidly restore the vital energy of a Core Formation cultivator!

Although his vital energy was restored, the Zijun Blood Soil was too heavy for Lin Feng to break through the surface, so he had no choice but to try digging downwards.

He started by scraping little by little with his nails, and once he could move, he used his black blade to dig.

Fortunately, there wasn’t much Zijun Blood Soil below him, and after a few days, he had dug out an escape tunnel leading directly to the cavern he was now in!

Inside the cavern, he found a fifth-grade Enlightenment Jade Stone!

Sitting on the jade stone to cultivate, he made progress in just a few days, breaking through from the early stage to the mid-stage!

“Want to kill me? First, ask if Heaven agrees.” Lin Feng said with a cold smile.

After speaking, seeing that the jade stone had lost its luster, he jumped down, picked up the black blade beside him, and prepared to head to Lingshan Town.

In addition to his breakthrough, he had also obtained some Zijun Blood Soil and needed to find a craftsman in Lingshan Town to refine his black blade into a superior spiritual weapon.

As for Qingning and that White Tiger?

He wasn’t planning on seeking revenge just yet.

He wasn’t afraid of Qingning, but the foolish tiger was a great demon with ancient bloodlines.

Unless Old Man Tianji possessed him, he would stand no chance if he were to confront him head-on now.

After all, he was the Son of Destiny. He would find a way to get even eventually, so there was no need to rush.

“I don’t know about the heavens, but that silly tiger was right. You did look like a rat while digging,” the voice of Old Man Tianji mocked in his mind.

“Appearances can be deceiving. It’s the results that matter! Not only did I escape death, but I also gained an opportunity!” Lin Feng retorted.

“Son of Destiny, are you proud to be digging holes like a rat? Are you proud of yourself?”

“Can we change the subject? I don’t want to hear the word ‘rat’ right now!”

“Fine, you were buried alive by a sixteen-year-old girl.”

“She tricked me!”

“Before being buried, you even asked that girl ‘did you see any bad guys?’ saying you’d protect her!”

“I was deceived by her appearance!”

“Before that, you confidently told me that the girl was already conquered by you!”

“Who knew she was such a good actress?”

“I warned you that the heart of a woman is the most poisonous, and you told me that even a venomous woman would become a virtuous wife and good mother in your presence!”

“…Let’s go back to talking about rat.”
