The tiger's speed was at the peak of its rank, surpassing that of most other peak rank 5 beasts as well, as it managed to cross the distance between itself and Shun Long in the blink of an eye.

As soon as it arrived in front of him, Shun Long saw the 'Winged white tiger' raising its right paw, before it sent out a claw attack towards him.

Shun Long narrowed his eyes when he saw the white tiger's astonishing speed that had already reached its peak after spreading its wings. He could clearly sense that this claw attack was strong enough to heavily wound him, even if it couldn't outright kill him.

It was obvious that this Qiu Yun wasn't holding back at all.

Clenching his right fist, Shun Long sent a powerful punch in response, as his fist met the white tiger's paw head-on.

Qiu Yun smirked coldly when he saw that Shun Long was intending to meet his 'Winged white tiger's' claws with his bare fist.

Even he, a peak fifth stage body refiner wouldn't dare to take the white tiger's attack with his bare hands like that.

And yet, the grin on his face suddenly froze in the next moment, as Qiu Yun saw the scene that followed.

Shun Long only felt a small sting in his hand when his fist met the white tiger's sharp claws, before both he and the peak rank 5 'Winged white tiger' stumbled back a few steps.

Qiu Yun couldn't believe what he was seeing.

He knew better than anyone else how sharp his 'Winged white tiger's' claws were. 

If he was the one to take on its attack, even if he hadn't lost his entire arm, Qiu Yun knew that his fist would be severely hurt at the very least.

And yet, Shun Long was actually fine after taking the tiger's attack head-on like that.

Not only was his own fist that had punched the tiger not crippled, but the tiger's sharp claws had barely managed to get past Shun Long's defenses as they sliced his skin open, creating nothing more but a small wound.

Blood had started to drip from Shun Long's hand, but it was obvious that the attack hadn't even reached his bones, before Shun Long used the energy of his 'Monarch's Eternal body' to quickly heal this small 'wound' on his fist.

Shun Long only took a single look at his fist that was already restored back in perfect condition barely a moment later, before he turned his attention towards the white tiger in front of him.

He actually knew that the 'Winged white tiger's' claws were only the second strongest part of its body. The strongest part was without a doubt its sharp fangs that could effortlessly tear through the bodies of other peak rank 5 magic beasts without any issue.

In his heart, Shun Long was also surprised that the 'Winged white tiger' had managed to get past the defenses of his body with just its claw attack. After all, he already knew that the strength of his body was already strong enough to match the defenses of an average peak rank 5 magic beast.

''This 'Winged white tiger' is probably close to reaching adulthood already.''

Shun Long only needed a moment to come to this conclusion before the invisible figure of an hourglass suddenly expanded from his body, covering the entire platform in the blink of an eye.

His second 'Monarch's Domain' had already suppressed the 'Winged white tiger's' speed by nearly 30 percent.

At the same time that Shun Long activated his 'Monarch's Domain', a new scene appeared in his golden eyes, before the 'Winged white tiger' abruptly shot towards him once again barely a moment later.

The 'Winged white tiger' appeared in front of Shun Long almost instantly, but this time, it didn't attack with its claws, and instead, it opened its mouth as it tried to bite Shun Long directly.

This was the command it had received from Qiu Yun after all.

Qiu Yun knew that even if Shun Long could resist the tiger's claws head-on, resisting its fangs was entirely impossible.

Even an early rank 6 magic beast would suffer a bit if it was bit by the 'Winged white tiger' directly, let alone Shun Long.

Shun Long understood this even better than Qiu Yun himself.

If his 'Monarch's Eternal body' had reached the peak of the fifth stage, he wouldn't be afraid of letting the 'Winged white tiger' bite him, but now, he wasn't going to let it do something like that.

As soon as the tiger opened its mouth and bit down violently, Shun Long's body suddenly disappeared, appearing right behind the white tiger barely a moment later.

An illusionary purple-colored blade appeared on his right hand, as Shun Long slashed the blade towards the defenseless tiger's back.

Shun Long knew that the tiger wouldn't have enough time to dodge this from such a close distance, especially now that its speed was lowered by nearly a third of its usual speed.

And yet, Qiu Yun's eyes lit up when he saw this scene, as he smirked coldly and said

''You really dare to ignore me?''

At the same time that his voice rang out, sharp rocks suddenly emerged from the ground beneath Shun Long at an astonishing speed, all shooting towards him at the same time.

The rocks came from every direction and although they were affected by Shun Long's 'Monarch's Domain', causing their speed to be less than half of their original, they still blocked Shun Long's path towards the white tiger, as well as his path of retreat.

Qiu Yun had been waiting precisely for this moment.

He knew that Shun Long had that 'blink' ability of his that he had comprehended thanks to his Dao of Space, and he would most likely use it to dodge the 'Winged white tiger's' most lethal attack.

In case that Shun Long didn't do anything to dodge the tiger's attack, Qiu Yun wouldn't mind it, since he would be more than happy to see the tiger's most powerful attack deal with his opponent. Qiu Yun was confident that the tiger would definitely maim Shun Long if it managed to land its fangs on him.

But if Shun Long really tried to dodge, then this was the best chance for Qiu Yun to use his own attack as well.

Qiu Yun was truly prepared for every scenario.
