Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm

Huo Yuhao cultivated as he traveled. When thirsty, he found spring water to drink. When hungry, he ate some of the coarse cakes he carried with him. Other than traveling, he sat in meditation.

"Mother, I will definitely become a soul master. My martial soul is not bad. If my talent is lacking, then I'll spend more time cultivating than others. I swear I'll seek justice for you."

After finishing his cultivation and setting out again, the look in his eyes became incomparably resolute.

It was precisely this unwavering conviction that allowed him to miraculously maintain a travel speed of nearly a hundred li per day.

"It's already been six days. I should be almost there, right?" Huo Yuhao carefully studied the crude map in his hands. He had secretly drawn it himself during his years at the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

Looking again at the directions indicated by the tree shadows on either side of the road, he concluded that he was already very close to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Meanwhile, Xu Zihuang had already been wandering through the Star Dou Great Forest for five days.

Although he had not ventured deep into the Star Dou Great Forest, even in the Outer Court region, he had encountered five Soul Beasts with thousand-year Cultivation. There were even more hundred-year and Ten-Year Level Soul Beasts.

Even with his strength, he still looked somewhat bedraggled after five days.

His close-fitting black clothes were stained with mud, and his medium-length black hair had gone untended, leaving it a complete mess.

Over these five days, his mind had remained constantly tense, and a trace of weariness showed in his brilliant golden eyes.

Today was already the sixth day. By his estimation, given Huo Yuhao's traveling speed, he should arrive at the Star Dou Great Forest sometime today.

Yet Xu Zihuang was now hesitating over his plan to leave the Star Dou Great Forest, wait by Huo Yuhao's side, and steal the opportunity from him.

Because that inexplicable feeling in his heart had grown especially intense today.

The silver hexagonal pattern between his brows flickered in and out of sight. Ever since the life aura of Life Gold had cleansed him and enhanced his Spiritual Power, he had always felt as though something was gestating within his Sea of Consciousness. That inexplicable urge to come to the Star Dou Great Forest had also arisen from it.

It seemed that everything was connected to the Silver Scale White Whale that had voluntarily become his First Soul Ring.

"Even if that Silver Scale White Whale was an auspicious beast, it shouldn't be this extraordinary, should it?"

"Hoo—" Xu Zihuang took a deep breath, casting aside his chaotic thoughts. He gripped the short blade Whale Tooth tightly in his right hand and continued searching through the Outer Court region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Yet after he had advanced only around ten kilometers, the silver hexagonal pattern between his brows suddenly erupted with light, nearly solidifying into a tangible form. At the same time, an intense sense of dread rose within him.

The surrounding light dimmed considerably. With his body tense, Xu Zihuang hurriedly poured Soul Power into his eyes and looked toward the source.

"Roar—"

The instant Xu Zihuang shifted his gaze, a low roar rang out. Relying on the Golden Eye's ability to see through darkness, he saw a massive Soul Beast in the nearby woods suddenly raise its head from its crouched position and glare viciously in his direction.

It was a massive black tiger, its entire body pitch-black without a trace of any other color. Its red eyes were filled with a sinister aura, and its body was a full four meters long. The muscles all over its body bulged, and it probably weighed at least a thousand jin. The king character on its forehead was black as well, but unlike the black of its fur, it was a gloomy black like mist. Its most unusual feature was its tail. Compared to ordinary Tiger-type Soul Beasts, its tail was much longer and stood upright. It was composed of countless bones, with a massive backward hook at the tip that gleamed with a cold, eerie light.

At the sight of this Soul Beast, every hair on Xu Zihuang's body stood on end, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead.

The bloodline of the Soul Beast before him was no less noble than that of the Imperial Auspicious Beast.

This was a Soul Beast that had nearly vanished, one that existed only in legends—the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger!

Legend had it that an Evil God descended upon a white tiger, causing it to mutate. The white tiger's original Light Attribute became a Darkness Attribute, and it grew black wings that symbolized corruption, along with an Evil God Hook like a scorpion's tail.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was extraordinarily powerful. If judged by martial soul grades, it was even slightly superior to an Ultimate Martial Soul. This was because, so long as a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger cultivated normally, it was almost certain to reach the demigod level. The only reason it could not attain godhood was that the God Realm did not permit Soul Beasts to become gods.

In the tens of thousands of years of soul master history, only one person had been clearly recorded as having fused with a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Soul Ring. That person was Sea God Tang San, who had crushed Spirit Hall's ambitions Ten Thousand Years Ago.

Logically speaking, with its exceedingly tyrannical nature of devouring other Soul Beasts to cultivate, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger would immediately draw the joint assault of other Soul Beasts wherever it appeared. It had to be completely exterminated before it could grow powerful. Even thousand-year Dark Demon Evil God Tigers were rarely seen, yet the one before Xu Zihuang had already come very close to ten thousand years of Cultivation.

Run! Run now! This was the only thought in Xu Zihuang's mind. Even though he had noticed that this Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was in poor condition.

The wings on its back were incomplete. At the point where its wings joined its back was a wound so deep that bone was visible. Its left wing was nearly torn off, while its right wing was badly damaged as though it had been sliced by a sharp blade.

But its most serious injury was on its abdomen. Blood flowed continuously from the huge wound, and its beating heart could even be clearly seen within.

Xu Zihuang had no time to consider what powerful Soul Beast could have injured a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger close to ten thousand years of Cultivation so badly.

Mobilizing all the Soul Power in his body, he shot nearly a thousand meters away within a few breaths.

Yet at that moment, an unexpected change occurred.

"Don't go! Don't go! Save me! Save me!"

A powerful Spiritual Power swept over him without warning, and an anxious voice rang out in his mind.

"My life is too miserable! I just escaped the wolf's den, only to enter a tiger's mouth. What sin did I commit?!"

Xu Zihuang was startled. To directly enter his Sea of Consciousness and communicate with him, even an ordinary Title Douluo would probably find that difficult.

But he quickly reacted and abruptly looked beneath the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

There was a round, plump head, fleshy-looking and over a meter in diameter. Its body was more than seven meters long. It was entirely jade-white, crystal-clear and smooth, with not a speck of filth on its skin. It looked like a silkworm larva. Halos flowed beneath its skin, and there was actually a pair of tiny, glittering golden eyes on its head. Beginning half a meter from its head, a golden ring appeared at every interval. From head to tail, there were a total of ten golden rings.

As the voice rang out, the golden patterns on the silkworm larva's body also lit up, dispersing much of the black mist that shrouded the surroundings.

But its body was firmly pinned beneath the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's paws, wriggling like a maggot.

A large section of its tail had also been severed, leaking a fragrant-smelling fluid.

"Sky Dream Ice Silkworm?!" Xu Zihuang's pupils contracted sharply, but he ignored Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's cries for help and continued fleeing without looking back.

The risk of facing that Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was simply too great.
