CHAPTER 655 THE BLOOD POWER OF THE WHITE TIGER

Ricky had to burst out all of his physical strength in order to pack the powerful punch. The punch was

filled with such pure and formidable strength that it was enough to smash several huge mountains to

smithereens.

Jackson was caught off-guard. Ricky's sudden punch that fell from the sky was certainly unexpected.

He frowned and involuntarily narrowed his eyes due to the shock. He never thought that Ricky was

capable of launching such a forceful and fast attack.

He had planned to burst forth a series of attacks against Ricky before. Yet, he did not expect that Ricky

could resist his second punch strongly, and even broke the kind of momentum he needed to continue

the explosion of power. The most unexpected part was that besides resisting his punch, Ricky even

instantly launched such a powerful punch.

Of course, the reason why Ricky was able to launch such a power-packed attack at such lightning

speed was because of the strength of his second level of Ultimate Golden Body. Driven by an immense

amount of power, Ricky was fearless enough to have gained the momentum and energy to fight against

any mighty warrior.

Despite his initial surprise, he was not entirely demotivated by Ricky's punch. Jackson crossed his

arms as he prepared to resist Ricky's punch by using the combined resistance of his white gold gloves

and the power residing within his body.

Bang! Ricky's golden giant punch left a low yet loud roar after it hit Jackson squarely and fiercely.

In a split second, Jackson was falling at a monster speed, as though he were a meteorite. He went

straight to the ground with a deafening thud. The desolate valleys and hills were crushed by his small

body.

Even after Jackson's fall, things were still yet to settle down. Jackson smashed a deep crater in the

yellow sandy ground. Soon, the crater where Jackson lay was filled with an abundance of yellow sand.

Ricky was unfazed. He carried on with more attacks. Ten clouds of fierce golden light instantly surged

from his golden body's chest. As the golden light gradually rose, its shape was shifted into ten huge

golden fingers. Boosted by Ricky's endless killing power, the ten enormous golden fingers dashed their

way towards the deep crater in the sandy ground.

The old saying goes, "Strike while the iron is hot." Thus, Ricky had to take advantage of the current

situation and ensure he left a fatal blow on his enemy. Ricky always kept in mind the said adage each

time he was up against a formidable enemy.

Thus, at that very moment, he released his invincible skill, the Impregnable Killing Finger and aimed it

directly at Jackson. He wanted his enemy to receive a sure and serious blow, so as to win the battle as Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

soon as possible.

A rumbling sound echoed throughout the place.

As the ten gold fingers smashed downward, the entire sandy ground appeared to have entered such a

horrible state that the ground shook violently, as if the world was going to be destroyed at any minute.

Ricky had calculated things beforehand. He was sure that, with the level of his attack, Jackson would

not be able to resist it, no matter how strong Jackson's physical strength was.

"Would Jackson, the young master of the White King Tiger tribe, really die so easily?" Several warriors

doubted that if Jackson would be killed off that easily.

They knew that the collision between Ricky and Jackson was bound to result in the demise of one of

them. They just couldn't predict which of the two would suffer the most injuries and die.

"He probably wouldn't! He hasn't revealed his beast body yet," some other warriors argued, countering

the possibility of Jackson's demise.

They were interrupted by a sudden and rambunctious roar coming from underneath the ground.

It was an angry howl and it sounded distinctly like a tiger's. Massive waves of golden killing aura

emanated from the frenzied shock wave below.

What happened next was too quick for the warriors to be able to absorb. A white figure with a

staggering height of over thirty feet bolted wildly towards the sky.

It was a tiger bearing a pure white color. It had fierce pupils that exuded boundless murderous intent.

The while golden lines on its forehead were filled with an undeniably domineering aura. Moreover, the

golden killing aura that it exuded had already filled the entire area in such a short span of time.

The tiger was Jackson's beast form.

From where they stood, the warriors could visibly see large, bloody bruises and scars all over

Jackson's beast form. It was, without a doubt, caused by Ricky's Impregnable Killing Finger.

Fortunately, the bruises and scars did not leave any significant damages in Jackson's massive beast

form.

Jackson exemplified the physical strength and tenacity that the beast bodies of the White King Tiger

tribe possessed.

"You are such a commanding and mighty White King Tiger. Unfortunately, I have no interest in taking

you as my mount. If I had, then that means your life would be spared today," Ricky said with a sigh. He,

too, had witnessed the abrupt and notable changes in Jackson's physical form.

Meanwhile, the way Ricky sighed had an undeniable hint of sarcasm.

"You are really mean and annoying. I will definitely tear you apart this time!" Jackson snarled furiously

at Ricky's shameless taunting.

Jackson had, in fact, never felt so embarrassed before until today.

Worse, this was also the first time that he was forced to reveal his beast form in public and in the

presence of several outsiders. Truly, he couldn't be even more furious about Ricky.

Another massive wave of a deep, thunderous roar filled the entire place.

With deep-seated anger, Jackson howled towards the sky, and his cry echoed and permeated

throughout the entire Sand Region.

In the midst of the impact left by Jackson's roar, the whole Sand Region was filled with overwhelming

and powerful pressure. It was a simple yet terrifying demonstration of the formidable power that ran

through the blood of the White King Tiger tribe.

"Ricky, he is summoning the blood power. It seems to be the blood power of the White Tiger, despite it

only being a trace of the said technique," Tina communicated with Ricky telepathically.

"Unexpectedly, only a little part of its blood power could produce such a mighty power. The White Tiger

really lives up to its reputation as the legendary beast!" Ricky said to Tina telepathically as well. He

then activated the four kinds of runic powers he had in his hands in order to resist the overwhelming

pressure.

Quickly, Jackson was done summoning his blood power. From within the void emerged the phantom of

a White Tiger which then merged with Jackson. Soon after, Jackson's power and strength were

multiplied by a hundredfold.

"I have to admit, Jackson is a very strong opponent," Ricky exclaimed. "Right now, I just want to

express my appreciation to Henry. If it weren't for him, I would not be able to set foot on the Sand

Region.

I also have underestimated the power of Pearl and all the other warriors."

"Ricky, now that you've acknowledged it, it is not yet too late," Tina reassured him calmly.

Ricky said nothing in reply. He reverted his attention to his current battle against Jackson.

"Your blood power originates from the White Tiger?" Ricky asked Jackson while his eyes reflected a

deep and heavy expression.

"You should feel proud for yourself for you have been given the opportunity to be killed by the blood

power of the White Tiger," Jackson said sharply.

"I think you completely misunderstood what I meant by my words. I asked you that simply because I

wanted to confirm whether what you have summoned just now is truly the blood power of a White Tiger

or not. Because, you know, once I kill you, I can refine the blood power in your body and then use it to

increase my current strength." Ricky had a nonchalant tone in his manner of speaking.

Roar!

Jackson couldn't help but respond with an enraged roar, after hearing how ridiculous Ricky's words

were. He swooped his huge claws quickly and ravenously towards Ricky's golden body. It didn't matter

that it stood at a height of about twenty feet.

Jackson's enlightening power surged rapidly like a colossal tide.

Ricky snarled, "Now that you have been strengthened by the blood power of the White Tiger, let me try

and test your new power!" He then dashed towards Jackson.

The following moment, an intense, hand-to-hand combat between the golden fist and the white-golden

claw commenced in midair. Two huge figures wrestled and hit each other relentlessly. Each time their

fists and strengths collided, the space around them would collapse.

"Is this still a battle between the middle spiritual kings? I wouldn't be surprised if someone were to

mistake this for a battle between the upper spiritual kings!" the warriors who watched from a distance

exclaimed. The fierceness of the ongoing fight left them with their mouths ajar and their eyes big and

hollow.

"Huh, it is exciting to see which of the two will prevail in the end. But, if it so happens that both are

badly hurt and it turns out that there is no winner, then we shall take this as a chance to join forces to

kill them both. Only then can we seize all the treasures in their hands." While some of the warriors

watched the fight in awe, there were also those who harbored malicious intents. In order to conceal

their nasty plan, the ill-willing warriors had to convey their strategy through telepathy.

That was a cruel reality in the world of warriors. As long as a warrior showed any sign of weakness, it

was inevitable that he might be hunted by other warriors with vicious intentions.

Clang!

After several rounds of exchanging punches and counterattacks, Ricky and Jackson finally kept their

distance and paused.

Even after they took a breather, the expression in their eyes still couldn't be heavier and more serious.

"White Tiger's Blood Power—White Golden Claw!"

Jackson released the strongest offensive attack of the White Tiger's blood power. He was fully aware

now of how difficult it was to engage the ace genius in a serious and all-out battle.

"Ricky, once you get hit by the claw, you will be completely obliterated. Your reputation and your talent

will be etched in history, while I, Jackson, will step on your corpse and triumphantly add your body

count into my long list of wins and honors in the world of martial arts," Jackson declared with full

assurance. He was calm and collected after launching his most powerful attack.

"Is this pure coincidence? Those words are the exact same words that I have been planning to use as

my parting words for you." Ricky grinned with the kind of confidence that irked his foe to the core.

Then, without any warning, Ricky's momentum reached its full limit.
