Although he felt that this little white tiger was not to be trifled with, Jiang Wei had no intention of retreating. In the brief exchange just now, Jiang Wei had already determined that this little white tiger had definitely not reached the Insight Realm—had it reached the Insight Realm, it would not have been so狼狈 when dodging Jiang Wei’s flying knife.
Not reaching the Insight Realm means one cannot comprehend the subtleties and power of the Insight Realm!
Like Jiang Wei, who could easily spot numerous flaws in his opponent; while every move Jiang Wei made appeared flawless to his opponent—so to speak, if the strength difference was not too absurd, relying solely on the Insight Realm, Jiang Wei would already be invincible.
However, at this moment, Jiang Wei did not dare to be complacent at all; because he discovered that after witnessing his attack, the little white tiger did not retreat but advanced instead.
"Is it coming to die because its brain isn't working, or does it truly have the confidence to fight me?" Jiang Wei chose to believe the latter.
"Roar!!!" After a roar, the little white tiger's body faintly turned red, as if its soul was boiling.
Jiang Wei very clearly felt that the little white tiger's soul strength had suddenly surged.
"Boom!"
The little white tiger exerted its legs and charged at Jiang Wei like a cannonball; its hidden, sharp claws were ready to deliver a fatal blow.
"Too fast!" Jiang Wei was secretly alarmed.
Although the little white tiger's movements still had numerous flaws in Jiang Wei's eyes, its speed was too fast, so fast that even though Jiang Wei saw the flaws, he felt unprepared.
If the speed doesn't match, seeing more flaws with the eyes is useless!
"Whoosh!"
Jiang Wei wielded his spear in a circle, using the strongest defensive spear technique to defend as much as possible.
"Whoosh!"
The little white tiger's claws brought a hissing wind; Jiang Wei saw that this claw was aimed at his head.
Although ghosts are soul entities and have no significant differences in their bodies, the head is still a vital point for ghosts—because the two ghost horns are on the head; if the ghost horns are knocked off, they cannot reincarnate and have no next life!
"Whoosh!"
Jiang Wei's spear danced, directly targeting the weakest point of the claw. Striking a snake at its vital point, attacking the enemy, of course, one must choose the weakest spot.
However, just as Jiang Wei's spear stabbed out, a strange phenomenon occurred; the little white tiger's claws suddenly transformed into swords.
"Clang clang clang clang clang!"
The five swords on the little white tiger's left hoof forcefully blocked Jiang Wei's spear and tried to force it out of his hand; while the swords on the right hoof, which had been prepared, directly attacked Jiang Wei.
The swords gleamed with a cold light, as if they were real; Jiang Wei had no doubt that if he were hit by the five swords, he would be cut into several pieces.
Retreat!
Jiang Wei did not hesitate at all, directly abandoning his spear and retreating, barely avoiding the claws that had turned into swords.
"This... this..." Jiang Wei was new to the Ghost Realm and had not yet heard of many things. He couldn't understand how the white tiger's claws suddenly turned into swords; of course, in the face of life and death, there was no extra time for Jiang Wei to ponder.
"Roar!"
The little white tiger fully demonstrated its excellent combat qualities of "taking advantage of your weakness to finish you off," giving Jiang Wei no time to catch his breath and immediately charging again.
Fortunately, Jiang Wei was quick-eyed and nimble-handed. Seeing the little white tiger leap up, he rolled under it and narrowly avoided the fatal blow while picking up the dropped spear.
"Too close! If I hadn't reached the Insight Realm, I would probably have died in that exchange, and might not even have the chance to reincarnate!" The two were briefly at a stalemate, and Jiang Wei repeatedly called it dangerous, "Even a little white tiger is so strong. If I encounter a big tiger, what would happen!? Can ordinary ghosts really complete the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion's assessment tasks?"
In fact, the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion never intended for ordinary ghosts to pass the assessment; the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion only recruits the absolute elite among ghosts!
However, Jiang Wei also overestimated the tigers—this little white tiger was so strong because it was a core disciple of "Heavenly Tiger Mountain"; if it were an ordinary tiger, it would not be as powerful.
After a brief stalemate, the dominant little white tiger launched another attack; still an attack full of flaws, but just as Jiang Wei was about to block with his spear, the little white tiger's two front legs suddenly became as flexible as ropes!
Not only flexible, but they instantly extended three to five times their length!
Two precisely controlled, unpredictable "ropes" wielded ten swords, attacking Jiang Wei from both sides. In other words, Jiang Wei had to face ten swords from both sides simultaneously; in such a situation, Jiang Wei even thought about abandoning his spear and fleeing.
"Is this even a tiger!?" Jiang Wei felt that his worldview was instantly overturned—this was not an action a tiger could make!
Tigers in the human world, of course, cannot make such movements, but this is the Ghost Realm, and Jiang Wei faced a "tiger soul"; souls are inherently in a gaseous form and can naturally transform into various shapes.
Of course, such transformations are not something any ghost can do; they must have a master and secret techniques to learn; like the rabbits Jiang Wei encountered earlier, none of them could change their form.
"Clang clang clang clang clang!"
While retreating, Jiang Wei desperately blocked the little white tiger's ten swords. Fortunately, each of Jiang Wei's movements was perfect, allowing him to hold out for a short time; but even so, Jiang Wei's situation was becoming increasingly difficult.
"Run?" The thought flashed through Jiang Wei's mind, but he immediately rejected it—running a race with a tiger in the mountains is a foolish act; Jiang Wei would probably be caught and torn apart by the little white tiger before he could take a few steps!
"Ha ha ha ha!" The little white tiger grew more excited in battle, "I thought you were something, but you're just an ordinary little ghost who doesn't know any secret techniques!"
"Secret techniques?" Jiang Wei understood that the little white tiger was probably relying on some secret technique to perform these moves! Jiang Wei felt bitter: "Such secret techniques are probably only in the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion; I'm not a disciple of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion, how could I learn secret techniques!?"
"No, this defense won't work!" As the saying goes, prolonged defense will inevitably lead to a mistake; facing ten swords, Jiang Wei could hold out for a short time, but over time, he would definitely make a mistake; just one mistake, being hit by one of the swords, would disrupt Jiang Wei's defensive rhythm, and he would be cut into pieces by the ten swords.
"Must take the initiative!" Jiang Wei gritted his teeth.
