Lin Luoluo, standing before them, actually made both Second Tier Contract Spirit Masters feel tremendous pressure!
The burly man's fleshy face twisted into a knot. He knew he couldn't wait any longer.
This young girl was strange in every way. He had to end the fight quickly!
He drew a deep breath, and the Star Energy within him surged wildly toward the Contract Spirit at his side.
The Contract Spirit known as the Black Fiend Tiger also sensed its master's resolve and threw back its head with a roar.
The burly man's eyes widened as he shouted at Lin Luoluo.
"Take my B-Rank Life Skill, Black Tiger Roar!"
The burly man's Contract Spirit was only C-Rank, yet it had managed to comprehend a B-Rank Life Skill.
Clearly, the burly man had some talent for comprehension, or some luck.
He had used Black Tiger Roar in many battles to the death, stunning opponents stronger than himself and leaving them dazed, laying the foundation for his victories.
Now, though, he was using it against a young slip of a girl whose level was lower than his own, leaving him full of mixed feelings.
Still, to be safe, he had to win in a single blow!
"Roar!"
With the earth-shaking roar, invisible sound waves erupted, mingled with a mental shock.
The surrounding trees swayed violently under the impact, and leaves rustled as they fell.
A smug smile had already spread across the burly man's face.
Against this move, a First Tier Contract Spirit Master stood no chance. Even a fellow Second Tier would be left dazed and in agonizing pain for at least several seconds!
And those few seconds were enough for him and the Black Fiend Tiger to tear their opponent to pieces!
But just as the burly man was gloating, he suddenly noticed that the dozen or so black tentacles flailing before him had only paused for a moment. Then, as though enraged, they began writhing even more wildly.
The tentacles slowly parted to either side, revealing the petite figure on the throne.
The young girl was still sitting securely on the throne. Far from being dazed, she hadn't even shown the slightest change in expression, and she looked completely unharmed!
"Th-this is impossible?!"
The burly man's eyes widened, and the smug look on his face froze in an instant. His face was full of disbelief.
His Black Tiger Roar was a mental attack, specifically aimed at an opponent's soul and will.
But why... why hadn't it worked on this young girl at all?!
Little did he know that Bai Chen was a demon god, and the essence of his soul was far beyond anything a mortal being could compare to.
To him, a mental attack of this caliber was no different from a tickle.
Lin Luoluo's own mental strength, meanwhile, had reached a terrifying S-Rank, giving her a naturally high resistance to attacks of this kind.
The burly man's B-Rank Life Skill would have posed a tremendous threat to any Second Tier Contract Spirit Master,
but against the combination of Lin Luoluo and Bai Chen, it was powerless.
The next second, he was met by several thick black tentacles that tore through the air with piercing shrieks.
"Damn it!"
The burly man hurriedly sent his Contract Spirit forward to meet them.
The Black Fiend Tiger roared and pounced, tearing at the incoming tentacles with its claws and fangs. But more tentacles surged in from every direction, leaving it unable to keep up.
As the burly man directed his Contract Spirit to defend, he shouted urgently at the pink-haired man beside him:
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and do something!"
The two made a well-coordinated team. Under normal circumstances, his Black Tiger Roar would first stun their opponent and leave them dazed.
Then the Pink-Haired Man's Contract Spirit would beat its wings and scatter powder, allowing its dust, with its various hypnotic and paralyzing effects, to have the greatest effect.
But now, the pink-haired man's expression was grim. He clenched his teeth, his voice trembling slightly:
"M-my Contract Spirit can't move! This girl is just too freaky!"
He pointed at the butterfly Contract Spirit trembling at his feet and cried out in terror:
"My Illusion Dream Butterfly can't stand the cold! Look! Look, its wings are covered in frost!
A normal First Tier Contract Spirit could never lower the temperature around it this much!"
The Illusion Dream Butterfly, which should have been fluttering gracefully through the air, now had stiff wings coated in white frost. Even a single flap had become extremely difficult.
The dust it scattered, imbued with special abilities, froze in the low temperature as soon as it left its body. It lost its potency and fluttered to the ground, unable to drift anywhere near Lin Luoluo!
"I suspect this girl's Contract Spirit has an S-Rank ability!" the Pink-Haired Man said, voicing a guess that frightened even him.
The burly man was dumbfounded. "Th-this is impossible!"
An S-Rank Slime?
And an ice-type one at that?
That was absurd!
"There's plenty more you think is impossible."
On the throne, Lin Luoluo parted her small lips and gave an order in a cold voice.
"Xiao Bai, take care of that butterfly first!"
Got it! Bai Chen chuckled to himself.
The next second, Bai Chen sent two more tentacles shooting out from the flank like bolts of black lightning.
They swept past the cluster of tentacles locked in combat with the Black Fiend Tiger and went straight for the Illusion Dream Butterfly behind the pink-haired man.
The advantage of having so many tentacles was that, while it looked like they were fighting two against one,
it was still uncertain which side was actually at a disadvantage!
The Pink-Haired Man turned pale with horror and tried to order the Illusion Dream Butterfly to dodge, but the poor butterfly was sluggish in the cold and couldn't react in time!
Squelch!
Two tentacles wrapped around the small Illusion Dream Butterfly in midair and squeezed hard!
With a faint pop, the butterfly's fragile body was instantly crushed to powder.
[Successfully killed C-Rank Contract Spirit: Illusion Dream Butterfly]
[Current experience has reached its limit. Please advance as soon as possible!]
Almost at the same time, the Pink-Haired Man's body shook violently.
"Pfft—!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
His Contract Spirit had been killed, and the excruciating pain of their mental link being forcibly severed made his vision go black. He nearly fainted.
"Ah! My Illusion Dream Butterfly?!"
The Pink-Haired Man let out a shrill scream, his eyes bloodshot and his anger on the verge of exploding:
"Damn it, Brother Meng, you have to avenge my Illusion Dream Butterfly! Kill her! Kill that little bitch!"
But the burly man called Brother Meng was already struggling to look after himself.
Without the Illusion Dream Butterfly's support, he now had to face the terrifying Shadow Throne alone.
The Black Fiend Tiger roared incessantly as it met Bai Chen's tentacle attacks.
With Triple Strength empowering him, each of Bai Chen's tentacles was roughly equal to the Black Fiend Tiger in sheer strength, but its attacks came several times faster than the tiger's!
For every two it slapped aside with a claw, another three or four immediately lashed out from even trickier angles!
And now that Bai Chen had activated Profound Ice Burst, every attack left a layer of ice on the Black Fiend Tiger, formed by the extreme cold energy carried by the tentacles.
"Crack! Crack, crack!"
The Black Fiend Tiger's movements grew slower and slower, and the frost on its fur grew thicker and thicker. The sound of ice cracking even came from its joints.
Every swipe of its claws felt like it was dragging a thousand-pound weight, and the wounds the tentacles had whipped across its body continued to multiply!
At last, after fending off another barrage of thrusts from three tentacles, the Black Fiend Tiger exposed a huge opening.
A tentacle that had been lying in wait struck like a black whip, carrying tremendous force as it slammed into the tiger's waist!
"Awooo—!"
The Black Fiend Tiger let out a mournful cry. Its massive body was sent flying and rolled several times across the ground before coming to a stop. It struggled a few times, but failed to get back up immediately.
