Chapter 160: Descendant of a Divine Beast!

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the little white tiger?" Nanfeng Zhirou's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly asked.

Ye Yuan didn't answer her. Instead, he turned the little white tiger over and over, examining it several times, and probed it with his spiritual sense. His expression grew increasingly grave.

Nanfeng Zhirou was an impatient person. Seeing Ye Yuan fiddling for a long time without saying anything, and his expression worsening, she couldn't help but urge, "What exactly is wrong? Just say it! You're driving me crazy! Is he going to die?"

Only then did Ye Yuan look at Nanfeng Zhirou as if she were an idiot: "Die? He couldn't be better!"

Nanfeng Zhirou finally breathed a sigh of relief, then said angrily, "If he's fine, why are you making such a sour face? Trying to scare me? Can't you just finish what you have to say in one go? What's wrong with him?"

"We've hit the jackpot. This little thing has an extraordinary background!" Ye Yuan put away his serious expression and said with some excitement.

"Extraordinary background? It's just a little tiger. What background could it have? If it had a background, how could it be cornered by such a big black python?" Nanfeng Zhirou asked doubtfully.

She looked left and right but couldn't see anything special about this little white tiger.

Ye Yuan sighed and said, "How many times have I told you? Knowledge is power! Why haven't you improved at all? Without knowledge, even if you enter a mountain of treasures, you'll return empty-handed!"

Nanfeng Zhirou glared at him: "Are you going to say it or not? Why so much nonsense?"

"Fine, I'll tell you so you can learn something! That white tiger is just an ordinary white tiger, but this little white tiger is completely different! Have you heard of the Four Symbols Divine Beasts?"

"Of course I have. The Azure Dragon of the East, the White..." Nanfeng Zhirou stopped mid-sentence, suddenly remembering something, and said in surprise, "You... you... you're not going to tell me this little white tiger is the divine beast White Tiger, are you?"

Nanfeng Zhirou was startled by Ye Yuan and even stammered.

What did a divine beast mean? It was the absolute ruler of heaven and earth!

A being with the name of a divine beast, as long as it didn't die in the future, would surely step into the divine realm!

Ye Yuan casually picked up a little white tiger, and it was the White Tiger divine beast, the ruler of the West?

Who was he kidding!

Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "Of course, he's not a divine beast. But... he does have the bloodline of the White Tiger divine beast! However, his bloodline is too thin. To become a divine beast... it's far too difficult."

There were some things Ye Yuan naturally couldn't say. In the Divine Realm, there were many demonic beasts with divine beast bloodlines, but true purebred divine beast bloodlines could no longer be found.

Because there were no divine realm beings in this world, and naturally no divine beasts!

Having a thin divine beast bloodline would still lead to extraordinary achievements in the future.

As long as the bloodline was strong enough, reaching the Demon Emperor realm was almost certain!

The Demon Emperor realm was equivalent to the human Divine King realm.

Moreover, most descendants of divine beasts possessed innate divine abilities. Once they reached the Demon Emperor realm, their strength would be formidable.

In terms of top-tier combat power in the Divine Realm, humans and demonic beasts were roughly evenly matched.

"But if he really has divine beast bloodline, even if he can't become a divine beast, he'll still be very powerful in the future, right?" Nanfeng Zhirou said.

"That's right! This little one also has a name of his own—Flowing Light White Tiger! A branch of the White Tiger divine beast's descendants! I never thought an ordinary white tiger could give birth to a Flowing Light White Tiger. It seems this little guy's ancestors have a deep background!" Ye Yuan exclaimed.

"Flowing Light White Tiger? No wonder when he killed that big black python earlier, he was so fast, really like a streak of flowing light."

"Mm, the Flowing Light White Tiger is famous for its speed. An adult Flowing Light White Tiger is at least at the fifth-rank transformation level! At that time, its speed is comparable to a flying profound artifact!" Ye Yuan explained.

"So powerful? Then haven't we hit the jackpot?" Nanfeng Zhirou said in surprise.

Above spirit artifacts were profound artifacts, and flying profound artifacts were incredibly fast. That the Flowing Light White Tiger's speed could match a flying profound artifact showed how fast it was!

Ye Yuan chuckled and said, "You're overthinking it. For a Flowing Light White Tiger to go from cub to adult takes at least a thousand years. By the time it grows up, I'll already be at the Divine King realm!"

Nanfeng Zhirou curled her lips and said disdainfully, "Bragging! Divine King realm! I've never even heard of a Divine King realm. You're just making things up!"

It wasn't that Nanfeng Zhirou was ignorant, but the state of Qin was too small a place.

One's starting point determined one's horizons. How could someone without boundaries know the realm divisions of the Divine Realm?

If they could rise to a certain level, their horizons would naturally broaden.

In response to Nanfeng Zhirou's contempt, Ye Yuan just smiled and didn't explain. He and Nanfeng Zhirou were simply on different levels, so communication was naturally difficult.

"But with me here, his realm might catch up to or even surpass Yuan Fei within ten years!" Ye Yuan said with a smile.

"So fast? You're not bragging again, are you?" Nanfeng Zhirou didn't believe him.

"When have you ever seen me brag? This little guy's foundation is much better than Yuan Fei's. As long as he's supplemented with pills, his future achievements will be considerable. Besides, this little guy just awakened his bloodline, so his future cultivation speed will be very fast!" Ye Yuan explained.

On this point, Nanfeng Zhirou didn't doubt Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan's attainments in the Dao of alchemy had completely surpassed her understanding, and he often produced pills she had never heard of.

Moreover, he dared to promise Yuan Fei that he would help him break through to the fourth rank, which didn't seem like empty talk.

So helping a little white tiger would be a piece of cake, right?

"Alright, I know you're amazing! The little white tiger is so cute. Let's give him a name, shall we? Look at him, all white and fluffy. How about calling him Little White?" Nanfeng Zhirou decided directly.

"Roar!"

The little white tiger let out a low roar like a cat's meow, protesting, clearly not liking the name.

Nanfeng Zhirou said angrily, "Hmph! It doesn't matter if you don't like it. You'll be called Little White!"

"Hmm, when he runs, he's like a flash of white light. How about... Bai Guang (White Light)? What do you think?" Ye Yuan was asking the little white tiger.

The little white tiger nuzzled into Ye Yuan's arms, apparently accepting the name.

"Haha, then from now on, you'll be called Bai Guang!" Ye Yuan laughed.

"Hmph! You ungrateful tiger! Who was it that fought hard to keep you? This guy was going to abandon you; he's not a good person!" Nanfeng Zhirou said irritably.

"Roar!" In response came a roar from Bai Guang.

"Alright, let's not waste time here. We should search this Blackwater Ravine; there might be good things! This Seven-Colored Flowing Cloud Python refused to leave for no reason; it must have found something." Ye Yuan interrupted Nanfeng Zhirou's provocation and said.

The two buried the white tiger somewhere, took the inner core of the Seven-Colored Flowing Cloud Python, and headed deeper into the Blackwater Ravine with Bai Guang.
