Below the spiritual vein.

The white tiger slowly lowered its head, baring its teeth and approaching Ji Jiuying with a fierce expression. It was this human who dared to mock it just now!

It was determined to show her what it was capable of.

Ji Jiuying remained unmoved, quietly watching its performance.

The white tiger was taken aback, thinking: Why isn't this mortal afraid of it? Is it not powerful or fierce enough? Thinking this, the white tiger looked at her fiercely, its mouth revealing sharp fangs, and moved closer to her again.

Seeing that she still looked calm, Baihu felt a chill in his heart.

Damn it, this doesn't make sense!

This mortal should both fear and worship it! She must be feigning composure; this time, it will definitely show her its power.

A white power gathered in his palm and fiercely struck Ji Jiuying.

The white tiger's lips curled slightly upwards, but as the power reached Ji Jiuying, a golden light shone from Ji Jiuying's eyes, and the fierce power vanished instantly. Before the white tiger could react, it was blasted away by the golden light.

As it was being knocked away, its size gradually decreased until it was about the size of a bowl, and it fell to the ground upside down.

The white tiger stood frozen in place, staring blankly at the sky.

Who am I? Where am I? What happened?

Until a stunningly beautiful smiling face appeared in its sight, a large hand reached out to grab it. Before the white tiger could react, Ji Jiuying grabbed it.

"Divine Beast White Tiger, take it!"

White Tiger: ? ? ?

Ji Jiuying looked at the bewildered white tiger and smiled slightly. Fortunately, she had made preparations in advance and formed a contract with it before it hatched.

"Little guy, you wouldn't be able to get out if it weren't for me. Instead of thanking me, you repay kindness with enmity. So, I'll punish you by making you use this body size now."

Upon hearing this, Baihu was dumbfounded.

Looking down at its own body, it realized that its once tall and mighty white tiger form had been reduced to such a small size. How could it possibly face the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise? Enraged by this thought, it began to wildly wave its four claws in mid-air.

Little did it know that its appearance had already been clearly seen by the people inside the space.

"How dare you! How could I, the mighty White Tiger, become so ridiculous?"

When it heard its own pronunciation, it was dumbfounded again!

How come a fierce tone sounds so childish?

Ji Jiuying twisted it, moved a little closer, and laughed, "It's not like I can't do without this body shape..."

What do you want to do?

The white tiger felt a chill run down its spine as it watched her gaze fixed on it, as if she were looking at a rare and precious treasure.

"Since you're unwilling, then forget it."

As she spoke, her hand loosened, and before the white tiger could react, it fell to the ground with a thud. The white tiger cursed Ji Jiuying countless times in its heart. It was just like the old saying, "A tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs." It rubbed its face and quickly stood up.

Turning around, I saw Ji Jiuying walking away quickly. My heart skipped a beat. Oh no, it shouldn't show itself in this form!

"Wait, wait a minute."

The little white tiger ran up quickly on its short legs, stumbling and falling a few times along the way, rolling on the ground like a ball of flesh. This scene made Xiao Huang'er and Xuanwu in the space burst into laughter. Dongfang Yao closed his eyes, unable to bear watching.

Ji Jiuying continued walking forward, but the actions behind her did not escape her keen eyes, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

"Master... Master, wait for me."

"Master, I am willing..."

The footsteps in front stopped, and the white tiger couldn't brake in time. It crashed straight into her foot, rolling backward several times before coming to a stop.

White Tiger: ·····

It hates it!

Ji Jiuying reached out and grabbed it, looking at it with a half-smile: "If you dare to try anything clever with the master-servant contract between us, I will definitely show you why flowers are red."

Upon hearing this, the white tiger's face darkened, realizing something was wrong. It knew there was a contract, but it never expected it to be a master-servant contract. What a disgrace! Did it even want to live anymore?

But a true man can bend and stretch, so it decided to humble itself for now, since its life was in the hands of this mortal.

"Master, what are you doing? Who is your status? Why bother arguing with a lowly person like me? Just tell me what you want."

······

Ji Jiuying watched its performance with a smile, and the white tiger felt as if she had seen through it.

"Okay, okay, I admit defeat."

After the white tiger finished speaking, a golden mark appeared on its forehead. Ji Jiuying then looked at it with satisfaction and gently tapped the white tiger's forehead with her finger.

Suddenly, a blinding golden light spread out from the underground spiritual veins, and countless golden lights formed tiny runes, all of which surged into Ji Jiuying's body. At this moment, her body was like a bottomless pit.

Within the dantian, the five spiritual roots were surrounded by golden light. The five spiritual roots, which had already grown exponentially, were gradually absorbing the golden light, and their appearance slowly began to change.

Ji Jiuying focused her mind and calmed herself, gradually transforming the golden light into her own power.

The white tiger absorbed the inheritance of the dead white tiger, and as its master, she naturally benefited as well. However, since the white tiger was still an egg when the contract was made, the contract was only half completed. Only when the contract was completed could she truly benefit.

The White Tiger is domineering and reckless by nature. After inheriting the legacy, it will seal these powers away, which is why the scene at the beginning happened.

······

From the underground spiritual vein, a snoring sound occasionally rang out. Three days passed, and seeing that Ji Jiuying still showed no signs of waking up, the White Tiger's burly body lay on the ground and fell fast asleep.
