Long Chen released the skull of the White Tiger King. However, his body still remained floating in the air. His arms were spread wide as if someone was pulling his body apart.
The White Tiger King's face kept turning paler and paler. All his nerves became visible, turning black. His claws came out on their own. The old man was in the worst pain of his life.
The life essence of the White Tiger King kept leaving his body, being sucked by Long Chen. Not only did the White Tiger King lose his life essence like this, but that essence made Long Chen's body stronger instead.
It was similar to Long Chen absorbing the Origin Energy through his sword. The only difference was that the energy was being sucked directly. Moreover, since the Spirit that occupied Long Chen's body knew all the knowledge that a Cultivator did, he used the energy he absorbed to strengthen Long Chen's core.
