He looked toward the cave behind him.
Powerful Exotic Beasts all possessed a sense of territory.
Since there was a Level 3 Exotic Beast nest here, there should not be a Tier 4 Exotic Beast nest nearby.
Azure flames ignited as he flew into the sky.
His gaze remained fixed on the forest below, hoping to find a Tier 4 Exotic Beast.
Unfortunately, two hours passed, and he still found nothing.
The sun at the horizon had begun to set, and night was about to fall.
"Ah... Tier 4 Exotic Beasts really aren't so easy to find."
Just as he flew over the small river from before,
he suddenly spotted a tiger-like Exotic Beast drinking by the river.
It was somewhat larger than the Scaled Lion Tiger, and its mane was entirely black.
Su Luo hovered in the air, carefully observing the Exotic Beast.
To his surprise, he discovered that it actually had an eye growing from its forehead.
"This is... a Tier 4 Exotic Beast, the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger!"
Three-Eyed Nether Tiger.
It possessed three eyes, and the eye on its forehead could unleash attacks that shook the mind.
It could make an enemy's head feel as if it were splitting apart, disrupting their judgment and perception.
If its opponent's mind was especially frail, they would turn directly into an idiot.
At the same time,
because the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's third eye could be made into an item capable of unleashing mental attacks, it was extremely valuable.
Seeing that the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger had not noticed him and was still drinking with its head lowered,
Su Luo quietly flew behind it.
He slightly raised his hand and gathered Vibration Power.
Then he suddenly dived down.
Boom!
Su Luo's punch landed directly on the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's spine, smashing it straight into the river.
The Three-Eyed Nether Tiger tumbled into the water, rolled several times, and steadied itself.
It turned its head, bared its fangs, and stared fixedly at Su Luo, who had ambushed it. The third eye on its forehead opened at that moment as well.
Su Luo was somewhat shocked to see that the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger was completely fine.
Any animal that suffered damage to its spine would be crippled, if not at least hindered in its movements.
Yet his punch, imbued with Vibration Power, had struck its spine, and it was actually completely unharmed.
A Tier 4 Exotic Beast's physical constitution truly was no joke.
Suddenly, the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's third eye shot out an invisible stream of energy.
Su Luo was caught off guard and struck by the energy.
He only felt a sudden boom inside his head.
The pain that followed made him involuntarily clutch his head.
Grinding his teeth, he endured the wave of torment.
"Mental attacks really are disgusting." Su Luo clenched his fists.
"But fine. When I dig out your eye later, I won't feel so guilty."
Using the Paw Ability that could repel all things,
he set up a protective barrier around himself that could deflect mental attacks.
Seeing that its mental attack had affected Su Luo,
the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger tried to repeat the same trick and unleash another mental attack.
But this time, the mental attack could not pass through the protective barrier Su Luo had set up at all and was merely deflected aside.
Seeing this, the corners of Su Luo's lips rose slightly.
"Three-Eyed Nether Tiger, I'm taking your eye!"
Upon hearing those words,
the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger immediately let out an enraged roar, as though it had been thoroughly provoked.
Relying on its superb physical constitution, it leaped out of the rushing river.
It opened its blood-filled maw and lunged fiercely at Su Luo's head.
It did not forget to keep releasing mental attacks along the way, but every one of them was deflected.
With a thought from Su Luo, immense gravity instantly pressed down upon the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger.
Bang!!
The Three-Eyed Nether Tiger was forcibly crushed from midair onto the ground, pressing a huge crater into the riverbank below.
Yet the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger quickly adapted to the gravity and stood back up.
Seeing this,
Su Luo could not help drawing in a sharp breath.
The difference between Level 3 and Tier 4 Exotic Beasts was far too great.
A Level 3 Exotic Beast struck by the gravity he released could not even crawl back up.
Yet a Tier 4 Exotic Beast could adapt so quickly and stand again.
It seemed Tier 4 Exotic Beasts were comparable to human Mortal Transcenders.
Their level of life would undergo a Life Leap.
Their abilities in every aspect increased by far more than just a little.
"Three-Eyed Nether Tiger, come fight!"
Bearing the ever-increasing gravity upon its body, the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger bared its fangs and charged forward with all its might.
Azure flames ignited around Su Luo.
He leaped into the air and landed atop the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's head.
The Three-Eyed Nether Tiger raised a paw, wanting to swipe this insolent fellow off.
But Su Luo would not give it that chance.
Vibration Power surged over both his hands. He swung his fists down and smashed apart both of the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's eyeballs.
The agonizing pain from its eyes made the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger roar uncontrollably.
The tiger's roar shook the mountain forest.
That roar awakened the true overlord hidden deep within the Tiger Roar Mountain Range.
It raised its head toward the direction from which the tiger's roar had come.
It rose to its feet and swung its enormous tail, its massive body crushing many of the surrounding trees.
With a thought, it instantly turned into a streak of black light and rushed toward the source of the roar.
The Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's left and right eyes had burst, and it could no longer see anything.
Fortunately, it still had one eye left.
Su Luo rode atop its head, punching without pause.
He struck repeatedly at the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's brain, trying to make it lose its ability to move.
Even though its head was in excruciating pain, the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger was exceptionally tenacious and refused to yield.
It leaped repeatedly, slamming its head into trees in an attempt to force Su Luo off its head.
Su Luo clamped down on the tiger's head tightly and refused to get off no matter what.
Even when he struck sharp branches and his body was torn with wounds,
azure flames emerged from the wounds, and in the blink of an eye, the injuries healed completely.
Now it was a contest of who would tire first. Whoever could not hold on and fell first would die.
But Su Luo possessed the Phoenix Body, and his recovery ability was astonishing.
In a contest of endurance, the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger did not have the slightest chance of winning.
After battling fiercely for more than ten minutes,
the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger finally could not hold on any longer due to excessive blood loss from its burst eyeballs.
Its massive body collapsed with a boom.
Su Luo remained cautious.
Still seated atop the tiger's head, he quietly waited for the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's heartbeat to stop.
Once the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's final heartbeat ceased,
Su Luo let out a deep breath.
He lay atop the tiger's head, took out a knife, and carefully dug out the third eye on its forehead intact.
This one eye alone could sell for tens of millions.
Not to mention that there was also a Tier 4 Crystal Core.
A single Three-Eyed Nether Tiger had provided Su Luo with such abundant gains.
But it had truly been exhausting. He could only compete with it in endurance and had no way to kill it by force.
After undergoing a Life Leap, its life level had risen far too much.
Still, it could not compare to him and his cheat.
Just as he finished collecting everything and prepared to leave,
his entire body suddenly turned cold, as though some deadly danger was about to descend.
He froze for an instant.
Azure flames suddenly erupted from his body. He flapped his flame wings and shot into the sky, speeding toward the city.
Just as Su Luo left,
a mass of black light appeared at the horizon.
With a boom, it crashed down beside the Three-Eyed Nether Tiger's corpse.
As the dust settled, it was revealed to be the true overlord of the Tiger Roar Mountain Range.
A Level 7 Exotic Beast, the Ghost Controlling Dark Tiger.
