"Hmph!" Both of them snorted coldly, neither yielding to the other.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Morton, being the stronger one, took the lead and charged ahead. In an instant,
Morton had reached the thousand-year-old Lingzhi. Seeing the Lingzhi right in front of him, his facenovelbin
beamed with joy. Noticing that Morton was faster than herself, Grace Field's face turned extremely
unpleasant. Just as Morton's hand was about to touch the Lingzhi, an accident suddenly occurred.
"Watch out!" Chris suddenly exclaimed. Before Morton could react, a roar sounded. A white giant tiger,
five meters long, charged out from behind a large rock next to the Lingzhi! It opened its huge blood-
filled mouth and rushed directly towards Morton, attempting to swallow him whole.
Morton's face changed drastically. He managed to come to his senses and quickly pulled the long
sword from his waist, stabbing it towards the white giant tiger. Faced with Morton's sword, the white
giant tiger didn't show any weakness and fiercely met the blade with its sharp claw.
Bang! A loud noise echoed as the sword and the tiger's claw collided, creating a shower of sparks.
Morton's face was filled with horror. The strength of this white giant tiger was incredibly powerful.
Seeing that a single strike didn't work, Morton immediately turned and fled! Roar! Although Morton's
sword hadn't pierced the tiger, it had enraged the ferocious beast. The white giant tiger roared and its
sharp claws brutally slashed at Morton's back.
With a tearing sound, Morton's back was instantly clawed open, leaving several bloody gashes. Blood
poured out! Ah! Morton cried out in pain, but he took advantage of this opportunity to escape the tiger's
jaws.
All of this seemed to take a long time, but it had only happened in the blink of an eye. Morton gasped
for breath, his face full of caution as he looked at the white giant tiger. His eyes were filled with lingering
fear. The strength of the white giant tiger was just too formidable. If it weren't for Chris's timely warning,
he would likely already be in its jaws.
Seeing that Morton hadn't picked the thousand-year-old Lingzhi and had instead almost lost his life, a
hint of schadenfreude appeared on Grace Field's face. "How are you?" At this moment, Chris walked
over and asked. With a terrified expression, Morton replied, "I am incompetent, please forgive me,
Master!" Chris said, "I don't blame you. It's my own oversight. Such a treasure is supposedly guarded
by a beast!"
In the past, Chris often carried out missions in the wilderness and occasionally encountered treasures
like the thousand-year-old Lingzhi. These treasures were often guarded by extremely fierce beasts that
had already gained spiritual awareness. They knew that these treasures were greatly beneficial to them
and would thus guard them with their lives. The white giant tiger in front of them was such a beast.
The beasts had begun to wait before the genius treasure had matured. Once it matured, they would eat
them! The white giant tiger had been waiting for such a long time. Of course, it wouldn't allow Chris and
his companions to take away the thousand-year-old Lingzhi.
"Thank you, Master!" Morton sighed in relief when he saw that Chris didn't blame him. Chris said
indifferently, "You all step back. I'll deal with this beast." "Yes!" Morton and Grace Field didn't try to be
heroes but stepped back.
Through the previous strike, Morton could roughly judge that the strength of the white giant tiger might
be at the early stage of a great grandmaster. He was only at the late stage of the grandmaster. If he
fought hard, it would only mean death!
After the two retreated, Chris turned his head and looked at the white giant tiger. Seemingly sensing
the formidable aura from Chris, the white giant tiger did not dare to act rashly. It only kept growling
lowly, warning Chris.
