Reborn as a lotus, she initially refuses to hand it over to the state.

As soon as he finished speaking, the White Tiger King moved.

It took a step, and the ground exploded with a deafening roar. A white afterimage tore through the air, and no one even saw its movement clearly.

The three-eyed rat monster was swatted away by a claw, its massive body crashing into two abandoned houses, gushing black blood.

Upon seeing this, the ordinary rat king let out a sharp screech and led the remaining rats to attack the white tiger king.

The White Tiger King did not turn around; its tail swept across.

With a series of loud bangs, dozens of contaminated rats exploded into a bloody mist on the spot, while the ordinary rat king was sent flying more than ten meters away, with half of its body collapsing.

The students were horrified. Was this the power of the Demon King?

The polluted rat swarm that had just cornered them turned out to be as fragile as paper in front of the Tiger King.

Lu Cang's expression turned grave, because he discovered that although the three-eyed rat monster had been swatted away, it had not suffered a fatal injury. Within the torn flesh, countless black buds were writhing wildly.

In the blink of an eye, the wound had healed most of its length.

The White Tiger King clearly noticed this as well, and its golden tiger eyes narrowed.

"Is it restored by the cracks?"

The next moment, the third eye on the three-eyed rat monster's forehead suddenly lit up, and a beam of pitch-black light shot out.

The White Tiger King did not dodge, but opened its mouth and let out a tiger roar, its white-gold tiger aura colliding with the pitch-black beam of light.

Boom!

The entire abandoned village shook violently.

The terrifying shockwave spread in all directions, and Su Wan quickly led the students to retreat. Several armored vehicles were shaken by the shockwave.

Lu Cang stood at a distance, his expression complex.

He had once hunted down the White Tiger King and had also witnessed the White Tiger devouring awakened humans.

In his eyes, the White Tiger King was a ferocious beast that had to be eliminated.

But now, this ferocious beast is standing in front of humans, blocking the polluted rift. This feeling makes him feel extremely frustrated and absurd.

Ignoring Lu Cang's gaze, the White Tiger King suddenly pounced, its sharp claws tearing through the three-eyed rat monster's chest, spraying black blood everywhere.

The three-eyed rat monster struggled frantically, its claws tearing a wound on the White Tiger King's shoulder.

As soon as the wound appeared, the black energy began to seep into the white fur.

The White Tiger King let out a deep, angry roar, and the Azure Lotus Mark within his body lit up.

A wisp of blue light flowed, temporarily suppressing the pollution.

Lin Qingxue stood at a distance and trembled when she saw that wisp of blue light.

The lotus energy within her body resonated with it.

"That is..."

Lin Qingxue stared blankly at the White Tiger King. She could feel that the blue light emanating from the White Tiger King was extremely similar to the power within her own body.

Su Wan also noticed this scene, and her eyes instantly became complicated.

Indeed, the White Tiger King possessed the power of the Azure Lotus Lord, meaning it had truly submitted to Black Dragon Mountain.

The battle continued as the White Tiger King bit the three-eyed rat monster's shoulder and tore it apart violently.

Large chunks of black flesh were forcibly torn off.

But the three-eyed rat monster felt no pain at all, and its third eye was aimed at the White Tiger King.

A sharp mental shriek blasted directly into the White Tiger King's mind.

The White Tiger King froze, and in that instant, the Ordinary Rat King pounced again, biting its hind leg hard.

The White Tiger King's eyes turned cold: "You're courting death."

The tiger's claws slammed down, instantly crushing the ordinary rat king's head.

The black crystal core rolled out, but it did not devour it.

Because the crystal core was already tainted with the aura of pollution, it looked at the three-eyed rat monster again.

At that moment, an even deeper sound suddenly came from below the abandoned well.

It was as if something was impacting the seal deep within the crack.

Immediately afterwards, a huge, bloodshot eyeball opened from the depths of the crack.

The eyeball wasn't fully protruding; it was just looking out through the crack.

But with just that one glance, everyone felt as if their hearts were being gripped by an invisible hand.

Many students knelt down on the spot and vomited blood.

Su Wan's face also turned pale.

Lu Cang let out a muffled groan and almost knelt down again.

The White Tiger King stopped moving for the first time.

A serious look appeared in his tiger-like eyes.

Because it could sense that what was deep inside the rift was far more dangerous than the three-eyed rat monster.

It's not even something that it can deal with now.

The three-eyed rat monster took the opportunity to retreat, its body gradually shrinking towards the crack.

It wanted to escape back.

The White Tiger King's eyes were cold. It did not rashly chase into the crevice, because its master's order was to stop the pollution from spreading, not to go to its death.

Just then, an angry roar came from the depths of the rift: "Qinglian, it's that damned aura of Qinglian again! You all deserve to die!"

The blue lotus mark on the White Tiger King's body suddenly lit up.

It let out a low growl, unleashing its white-gold tiger aura. Instead of continuing its attack on the three-eyed rat monster, it slammed its claws down on the edge of the abandoned well.

A large amount of rubble collapsed.

The entrance to the abandoned well was blasted in half, and then it opened its mouth and spewed out a beam of white-gold light, directly sealing the black gas leaking out of the crack.

The three-eyed rat monster let out a resentful hiss, but was ultimately forced back into the depths of the rift.

The polluting aura emanating from the giant eyeball began to weaken, and finally the giant eye closed, its phantom disappearing into the depths of the crack, and the entire abandoned village finally returned to its deathly silence.

Baishanjun stood in front of the abandoned well, its chest heaving, blood still flowing from the wound on its shoulder.

The black energy kept trying to erode flesh and blood, but was directly purified by the Azure Lotus Mark.

Lu Cang stared at it, his heart trembling with shock.

The fact that the White Tiger King was injured shows that what lies deep within the rift is far more terrifying than they imagined.

The White Tiger King turned to look at Su Wan and Lu Cang, and said in an icy voice, "The master has ordered that this area within thirty miles be designated as a contamination isolation zone, and no one is allowed to approach the rift."

"Those who disobey the order will die."

Lu Cang's face turned ashen: "This is human territory."

The White Tiger King looked down at him and said sneer, "Then can you humans defend this place?"

Lu Cang fell silent instantly. The facts just now proved that even the Ninth Branch of the Linjiang City Public Security Bureau could not hold this place.

If it weren't for the appearance of the White Tiger King, all the students and members of the Ninth Bureau would probably be dead here today.

The White Tiger King ignored them and turned around, walking to the abandoned well where it lay down.

Clearly, it intends to personally guard this place.

Lin Qingxue was also deeply shocked when she saw the White Tiger King.

Her eyes were filled with complex emotions. This wasn't the first time she had seen the White Tiger King; on the contrary, this white tiger was almost the source of her nightmares.

That day, she followed Professor Zhao and Zhou Hao into the outskirts of Heilong Mountain, thinking it was just an ordinary field trip.

But no one expected that they would encounter this White Tiger King.

Professor Zhao died, and died a horrific death. She still can't forget the gruesome sight of Professor Zhao being cleaved in two by the White Tiger King's claw.

She also couldn't forget how Zhou Hao pushed her towards the White Tiger King in order to escape.

At that moment, she clearly felt what despair meant for the first time.

If we hadn't fled all the way to the depths of Black Dragon Mountain, if it weren't for the mysterious entity in the heart of Black Dragon Lake releasing its oppressive power...

The White Tiger King dared not step into the Black Dragon Lake area; she had long since died, which is why she saw the White Tiger King again at this moment.

Even if it had just suppressed the contaminated cracks, even if it had just indirectly saved everyone.

Lin Qingxue felt no gratitude whatsoever; all she felt was fear, hatred, and a profound sense of powerlessness.

Her fingers trembled, and a bluish light uncontrollably flared in her palm. Su Wan noticed something was wrong and asked in a low voice, "Qingxue, what's wrong?"

Lin Qingxue remained silent for a long time before finally saying in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Professor Zhao, it was this that killed him."
