Chapter 257 - Escape
The way the tigress defended was truly quite shocking, but it was still not enough to stop Qin Tian and his Immortal Lightning Dragon.
The lightning dragon easily shattered the ice blocking it, it was as fragile as paper when the lightning dragon hit it with its head.
The ice grew harder as the lightning dragon got closer to the tigress, but it was still far from enough to stop the lightning dragon.
Every now and then, the lightning dragon directly pierced through space, crossing hundreds of kilometers in an instant.
Boom... Boom... Boom...
The sound of explosions caused by the shattering of ice chunk continuously echoed, making the tigress start to panic a little.
The spiritual body that was fighting it smiled mockingly and said, "You won't be able to run away from it."
He continued to send attacks at the tigress with his spear.
It wasn't that easy to attack the tigress, it kept on resisting his attacks in various ways.
If it didn't do that, his attacks would only land on its body.
Being stabbed directly by the imperial weapon, not many in the sixteen heavens could survive unscathed.
Boom...
The final explosion was because the entire iceberg had exploded, now apart from its wings that had grown enormously large, the tigress had no more defense.
The lightning dragon then smashed into the tigress's wings before exploding, releasing countless bolts of lightning. They drowned the tigress in a sea of lightning.
Qin Tian's spiritual body that released the lightning dragon then infiltrated the tigress's wings. Wherever he passed, he would leave a trail of his space power so that he could teleport there.
He might have a chance of stealing the tiger cub now, but if he did that openly under their eyes, they might continue to chase him.
Before doing that, he needed to prepare an escape route so the two tigers couldn't catch up to him.
Roar...
The male tiger became very angry to see the tigress drowned in the sea of lightning.
After it roared, white colored flames suddenly surged from its body.
The fire would be weak in the water, but the flames released by the male tiger continued to grow stronger even in the water.
Whosss...
The flames swept towards the two Qin Tians like ocean waves, even in the water, Qin Tian could feel the smoldering heat. His body couldn't stand being hit by the flames, he had no other choice but to retreat. The white flames were clearly the male tiger's secret technique. It probably couldn't be released just like that because the male tiger's aura weakened very quickly after that.
But even so, after he and his spiritual body retreated, the male tiger immediately rushed towards the tigress.
The sea of lightning still drowned its body, every now and then, the sound of its roar echoed from within the sea of lightning.
As the male tiger approached that sea of lightning, its body suddenly became transparent.
Qin Tian wasn't sure what had happened to it, but quickly, its transparent body began to melt, looking like it had become water.
It then entered that sea of lightning.
Surprisingly, the sea of lightning seemed unable to touch it.
"What kind of strange thing is that?" Qin Tian couldn't help but wonder.
Things that looked like the thing did exist in the sixteen heavens, but they were definitely not as strange as the thing.
Qin Tian observed with his primordial eyes.
The thing moved closer to the tigress's body, after arriving in front of it, it then covered its body. After that, it started to take a shape.
As Qin Tian continued to look at it, he finally realized that it had turned into an armor covering the tigress's body.
"Are they doing fusion?"
Right after Qin Tian said that, the tigress's aura suddenly surged drastically until it became three times stronger.
The pressure it released made Qin Tian completely horrified.
Shua...
The wings on its back flapped, sending Qin Tian who was infiltrating its wings thrown far away.
Roar...
It then roared, making the entire abyss tremble, even Qin Tian felt an earache just because he heard the sound of its roar.
"Shit, it's going to go berserk..."
Qin Tian knew that it was time for him to leave.
Without a second thought, he and his three spiritual bodies then flew into the depths of the ravine at their fastest speed.
Beneath the ravine, there was a very wide path, Qin Tian wasn't sure where it would take him, but now he could only leave from there first.
In order to steal the tiger cub, he can do so after the two tigers have calmed down.
On the other hand, he also left one primordial shadow to watch over them from behind.
It might not have any power, but its existence could barely be felt.
In order to trick the two tigers from chasing after him, Qin Tian's four bodies flew in different directions.
Fortunately the path was very wide. The path itself consists of many paths.
The sound of the tigress's roar continued to echo as Qin Tian left.
It chased after one of his spiritual bodies, and occasionally attacked him when the opportunity arose so that the body started to get seriously injured.
"Perhaps now is also a good opportunity," Qin Tian thought through his primordial shadow.
The tigress was too focused on his spiritual body, now might be the best chance to once again infiltrate its wings.
"I'll do it now," he said.
He didn't think too long, his spiritual body that was elsewhere then teleported to the side of the primordial shadow.
With the many traces of space power he left behind, he was now able to teleport more freely.
The concept of the laws of space was very complicated, one could penetrate space to reduce the distance, but in order to teleport, one had to make a trace of the power of space first.
The stronger the trace, the safer the teleportation would be. If it was weak, a stronger expert might be able to destroy the teleportation path.
Of course, to ensure his success in kidnapping the tiger cub, Qin Tian did his best on the space traces he created, he even added an imperial aura to them.
Doing all that is also not something easy. In fact, the current Qin Tian had almost run out of spiritual energy.
After appearing beside the primordial shadow, he first inserted the shadow into his body. After that, he disappeared once again. This time his actions were carried out very discreetly.
He then appeared within the tigress's wings.
The tiger cub hiding there often ran around, it kept moving from place to place.
But with his primordial eyes and divine perception, he was able to immediately find the tiger cub.
After finding the tiger cub, he immediately moved towards it at his fastest speed. It only took him an instant before he arrived beside the tiger cub.
Without thinking, he then reached out to catch it.
