Beast World: The Ferocious God Xiang Liu is So Gentle

Chapter 356 The White Tiger Returns

Ling Guang moved with lightning speed, his movements astonishing. In just a few days, he led Bai Ze and Jin Bao, speeding through the air until they finally arrived at the mysterious cave where the guards were hiding.

As the soldiers stepped into the cave, a gigantic tiger appeared before them. This giant tiger radiated a dazzling white light, as if it itself were formed from condensed light.

Seeing this, Ling Guang hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Brother, what happened to you? How did you end up like this?"

However, the white tiger remained unresponsive as if it had lost consciousness; on the contrary, the white light emanating from its body grew even stronger.

Just then, Bai Ze was captivated by the soft and strange white light and couldn't help but reach out and gently touch the white tiger's body.

In an instant, a powerful energy surged forth from the White Tiger's body like a burst dam, rushing wildly towards Bai Ze.

Bai Ze felt a flood of unfamiliar memory fragments suddenly rush into his mind. These memories crashed against his nerves like waves, giving him a splitting headache.

He clutched his head tightly with both hands, let out a painful scream, and then rolled on the ground. After only one rotation, Bai Ze could no longer bear the intense pain, closed his eyes, and collapsed unconscious.

At the same time, the white tiger's body also turned into starlight in an instant and quietly disappeared into the air, as if it had never existed.

Seeing that Bai Ze wouldn't wake up anytime soon, Ling Guang didn't dare to take him on the journey rashly.

So he instructed Jinbao, "You stay here and watch over him. I'll go out and find some food. We'll stay here for a while and return to Chaoyang Valley after Bai Ze wakes up."

The three of them stayed there until the cold season was approaching, when Bai Ze woke up again.

When Bai Ze slowly awoke from his deep sleep, something astonishing happened—the Bai Ze before him was completely different from before!

His originally petite figure grew rapidly like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and in the blink of an eye, he became tall and imposing.

Not only that, even his originally clear and innocent eyes have subtly changed, replaced by a deep and resolute gaze, as if he could see through everything in the world.

What's even more surprising is that upon closer inspection, one can find that Bai Ze's appearance now bears a striking resemblance to Jian Bing.

This strange coincidence led many to speculate whether there was some unknown connection between them.

Just then, Bai Ze suddenly transformed into a majestic giant beast.

Immediately afterwards, he strode out of the dark and damp cave with his strong and agile limbs.

With a sudden flap of his broad, enormous wings, an incredibly powerful airflow was instantly stirred up, forming a magnificent tornado.

All that could be heard was Bai Ze raising its head to the sky and letting out a deafening roar.

In an instant, all the beasts within a hundred miles were startled by this long roar, and they all rushed towards the direction where Bai Ze was. For a moment, the earth trembled, the mountains and forests howled, and the magnificent scene was truly rarely seen in the world!

Ling Guang: "Are you Bai Ze, or Jian Bing?"

The white tiger transformed into human form: "I have merged with the memories and abilities of the guard. I am Bai Ze, but I am different from before. We've lingered outside for too long, let's go back to Chaoyang Valley!"

Bai Ze and Ling Guang, like two streaks of red and white lightning, sped off towards Chaoyang Valley.

Back in Chaoyang Valley, the cold season had already arrived. Looking at the drastically changed Bai Ze, Lu Yao asked, "Are you still Bai Ze?"

Bai Ze: "In Chaoyang Valley, I am still Bai Ze, the master. But outside, I must appear as the supervisor, because I have inherited his mantle."

Xiang Liu: "So, you've now become the Metal God among the Four Symbols?"

Tianwu: "Tell me quickly, what supernatural powers have you acquired?"

Bai Ze: "My special ability is the power of tornadoes and the ability to summon all kinds of beasts. In the Five Elements, I belong to Metal and am the guardian deity of the West."

The Golden God originates from the *Hun Yuan Ba ​​Jing Zhen Jing* (True Scripture of the Eight Primordial Scenes): "The North, associated with Ren and Gui water, corresponds to the Kan trigram, its image being the Black Tortoise, the Water God. The South, associated with Bing and Ding fire, corresponds to the Li trigram, its image being the Vermilion Bird, the Fire God. The East, associated with Jia and Yi wood, corresponds to the Zhen trigram, its image being the Azure Dragon, the Wood God. The West, associated with Geng and Xin metal, corresponds to the Dui trigram, its image being the White Tiger, the Metal God. These four symbols generate the world, stand firmly in the universe, and are the masters of heaven and earth; they are called the Four Symbols."
