Dai Ernai, Are Your Hands Blessed?!
This was more than it could tolerate. It lunged straight at Dai Zhirou and Taishi Ming.
Dai Zhirou watched the Unicorn Tiger charge toward her without the slightest intention of backing down.
Her Fourth Soul Ring lit up. "Fourth Soul Ring Skill—Thousand Blade Slash!"
The moment the soul skill activated, the eight spider legs on her body became like blades, slashing out continuously and forming a curtain of blades before her.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
It had to be said that the Unicorn Tiger's horn was incredibly hard. Dai Zhirou's blade-like spider legs struck against it—
yet failed to harm it in the slightest.
Instead, they rang out with sounds like metal striking metal.
However, the Unicorn Tiger's charge was slowed and eventually brought to a halt.
Roar!
After its attack was thwarted, the Horned Tiger roared again and bit at Dai Zhirou.
Dai Zhirou swiftly grabbed Taishi Ming beside her and flashed back seven or eight meters, evading the Unicorn Tiger's attack.
At the same time, her Fifth Soul Ring lit up. "Fifth Soul Ring Skill—Parasitic Web!"
Countless spider webs shot forth.
In an instant, they sealed off every direction around the Unicorn Tiger, leaving it nowhere to evade.
The horn on the Unicorn Tiger's head glowed blood-red. It shook its head violently, using its horn to pierce through the webs one by one.
Then it leaped into the air and pounced directly at Dai Zhirou and Taishi Ming.
Taishi Ming instinctively wanted to retreat, but Dai Zhirou held him back.
Taishi Ming was somewhat confused, but the next moment, he understood.
The Horned Tiger, which had leaped into the air, suddenly let out a miserable scream and crashed down from the sky.
It then began rolling around wildly on the ground!
Taishi Ming saw countless lumps swelling across the Horned Tiger's body. More terrifyingly, the lumps continued to grow and wriggle.
It was as though something was inside them.
Pop! Pop! Pop!
The swollen lumps burst one after another, and spiders crawled out.
In less than a moment, the Unicorn Tiger that had been so imposing just moments ago was riddled with holes.
Then, as if they had completed their mission, the spiders exploded as well, spraying green liquid everywhere!
Sizzle!
Wherever the green liquid landed, it was violently corroded.
The Unicorn Tiger had merely been riddled with holes before, but now, covered in green liquid, it had been corroded beyond recognition.
Probably no one would be able to tell that it had once been a Unicorn Tiger.
Gulp.
Taishi Ming could not help swallowing. This soul skill was far too vicious!
He understood now. Although the Unicorn Tiger had pierced through the webs one by one and avoided being bound by the Spider Web Restraint—
some of the shattered webs had inevitably come into contact with its body.
That was the key!
It had been parasitized!
Seeing Taishi Ming's expression, Dai Zhirou smiled faintly. "Did you think the name Five Poisons was for nothing? It's because each of the five of us has a poisonous soul skill that strikes fear into others. Whenever the academy's teams hear they have to practice against us, their faces turn as dark as if someone owed them millions upon millions of Gold Soul Coins."
Taishi Ming wiped away a cold sweat. With a soul skill this vicious, if it were me, my face would be even darker than theirs!
Damn it, if someone got hit by that move, even if they could fully recover afterward under a Healing Soul Master's care, who could endure the pain of being riddled with holes and corroded?
It truly lived up to the word "poison"!
The Unicorn Tiger tried to struggle to its feet, but after struggling twice or thrice, it collapsed to the ground and never moved again.
A black Soul Ring floated up!
Fuck, it was literally tortured to death by pain!
"What a pity!"
Dai Zhirou looked regretful. This Unicorn Tiger was highly suitable for all kinds of weapon Martial Souls.
She did not have a weapon-type Martial Soul, and even if Taishi Ming did, his Soul Power was still far too lacking!
Such an outstanding Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring had gone to waste just like that.
"Let's go."
Dai Zhirou had already planned to leave, but something caught her attention.
"This—"
An expression of extreme shock appeared on her face. After the shock passed, she flashed forward and directly tucked the item into her sleeve.
Just then, two men and a woman rushed out.
When they saw the Unicorn Tiger lying on the ground, mangled beyond recognition, as well as the black Soul Ring floating above it, all three showed anger on their faces.
Even if they could no longer recognize it as the Unicorn Tiger, at the outermost edge of the Heavenly Spirit Mountain Range, the only ten-thousand-year Soul Beast they had chased from the middle region all the way here was the Unicorn Tiger.
They had spent an entire week on this!
And now, it was all gone.
How could they not be furious?
At the same time, wariness appeared in their eyes.
The three of them had joined forces and still failed to keep the Unicorn Tiger, yet the other side had reduced it to such a state with just two people—or perhaps even one.
After all, Taishi Ming was too young to even count!
Moreover, the tiger's body was riddled with wounds and corroded by venom. The sight of it was enough to make one shudder.
Dai Zhirou said nothing. Her eyes had turned icy, and an almost suffocating aura radiated from her body.
The three understood that it was a warning.
They exchanged glances, then finally smiled helplessly.
They were not fools. How old was Dai Zhirou? She was probably only half their age!
Yet she could single-handedly kill a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast. She was either an absolute genius, or a powerful expert was secretly protecting her.
But regardless of which it was, it was not worth offending her over something that had already happened.
Thus, all three took a step back in concession.
Only then did Dai Zhirou turn and leave with Taishi Ming. They departed with complete composure, making the three even more wary.
It meant the other side simply did not regard them as a threat.
That made the three grit their teeth.
But what could they do? In this world where strength reigned supreme, the strong held absolute power.
The weak could only endure.
After Dai Zhirou and Taishi Ming left, the three turned their eyes to the Unicorn Tiger's black Soul Ring.
Their expressions were extremely complicated. The other party had not even spared the Soul Ring a glance, which meant the Unicorn Tiger had never been their target.
Most likely, the Unicorn Tiger had simply sought its own death by running into them. In that case, they really could not blame the other party. They could hardly demand that someone not fight back when attacked by a Soul Beast!
Still, what a pity. A Soul Ring produced by a Soul Beast killed by someone else could not be absorbed.
The three also left. With the Unicorn Tiger gone, they still needed to continue hunting Soul Beasts to obtain Soul Rings!
However, afterward, the purple-haired middle-aged man could not shake the feeling that something was wrong.
He could not help asking, "Zhang Dong, Nancheng, did either of you see whether the Unicorn Tiger's horn was still on its corpse?"
Zhang Dong said, "Its horn? Who would want that thing? Of course it was still there. Why are you suddenly asking?"
Nancheng thought for a moment before saying, "It was."
The purple-haired middle-aged man said, "Are you sure?"
Nancheng said, "Xifeng, I examined it carefully to confirm whether it was the Unicorn Tiger we had been chasing. So I'm certain that the horn on its head was still there. But is whether its horn was there really that important?"
