Jiang Siming turned around and wielded both swords at once.
"One Sword Separates the World."
The sharp sword energy of the Immortal Extinction Sword carved a long gash across the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's belly. The Immortal Slaying Sword also wounded one of its paws, and the attached killing force constantly ate away at its body.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a pained roar, its eyes fixed on Jiang Siming. It charged at him without hesitation.
"You're trying that trick on me?" The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was certainly furious. But the faint glimmer buried in its eyes told Jiang Siming that such an intelligent Soul Beast wouldn't lose its cool so easily. It surely had another move up its sleeve. Sure enough, the Evil God Hook on its back glowed faintly, transforming into a long Evil God Thorn.
"Aura of Hegemony." Jiang Siming instantly activated the Donghuang Bell's innate skill.
Aura of Hegemony couldn't increase Jiang Siming's strength, but its effect of boosting his presence by 100% was enough to slow the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger down for a second.
Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Siming kicked off hard with both feet. He flipped once in midair and landed behind the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. The Immortal Extinction Sword slashed down on the Evil God Thorn that had transformed from the Evil God Hook, then he leaped backward.
Jiang Siming hadn't managed to cut through the Evil God Thorn. He had only left a deep sword mark.
"As expected of something with the Evil God's power. I couldn't cut it in half with one strike."
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger flew into a rage. A black hole, seemingly without end, appeared around it. Its powerful suction pulled both man and tiger inside.
Jiang Siming found himself in a strange space. It resembled a gigantic, circular arena. The sky seemed endless, but there were no clouds, sun, or stars. Dark light shimmered across it, and the place was filled with an evil aura. Jiang Siming suddenly realized that his body had shrunk.
"Just like in the original story," Jiang Siming muttered.
He slowly raised his head and looked ahead at a black tiger cub. Calling it a cub wasn't quite accurate, though. Compared to Jiang Siming now, it was enormous.
In the original story, Tang San had killed the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in its juvenile form with Hidden Weapons. Jiang Siming suddenly remembered that he seemed to have an M4A1.
But Jiang Siming was feeling playful. If he hadn't entered this strange space, he wouldn't necessarily have been confident about killing this evil tiger. After all, if it wanted to run, he couldn't stop it.
"Would you say you brought this on yourself?" Jiang Siming asked with a laugh.
The young Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a low growl, as if to say, "You're dead."
Jiang Siming put away both swords and summoned the Donghuang Bell. That night, ten people had used the Donghuang Bell to beat him up! Now he wanted to experience what it felt like to smash someone with it.
"Come on, open wide. I'll treat you to some Donghuang Bell." Jiang Siming raised the bell and activated his Aura of Hegemony.
Combined with the Donghuang Bell's Aura of the Emperor, it drew a trace of fear into the young Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's eyes. After all, the Donghuang Bell was an ancient divine artifact and a treasure belonging to the emperor of the demon race. An adult tiger might not have been so afraid, but the young Dark Demon Evil God Tiger could clearly feel the pressure of the demon race's emperor.
On the enormous arena, Jiang Siming's tiny figure swung the Donghuang Bell as he fought the young Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
The tiger's paw collided with the Donghuang Bell, ringing with the solemn notes of an emperor. The sound wore down the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's will.
Jiang Siming struck again, knocking the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger back.
"I'm done playing with you. Time to finish this," Jiang Siming said confidently.
"System, retrieve the M4A1."
"Ding! Retrieval successful."
Jiang Siming raised the M4A1. "Goodbye." Then he pulled the trigger.
"Click, click, click."
"Hm?" Jiang Siming sounded puzzled.
"Damn it, system, you didn't give me any bullets. You're really something—giving me an M4A1 without a single bullet." Jiang Siming wore a bitter smile.
Jiang Siming Heads Toward a Happy Life
"System, get out here. I promise I won't beat you to death. You gave me a gun but no bullets—what's that supposed to mean?"
"Ding! In response to the host's strong request, ten bullets have been awarded. To maintain the fairness of the system, the Mirror System's base quantity has been increased to three."
"That's more like it—wait. What does it mean that the Mirror System's base quantity has been increased to three? Does that mean I have to fire at least three shots every time? You're the one who forgot the bullets, so why am I being penalized for it?" Jiang Siming said, completely baffled.
"System, you've changed. You never used to treat me like this. You don't love me anymore," Jiang Siming said, pretending to be aggrieved.
As he spoke with the system, Jiang Siming loaded the bullets.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh." Three shots finished off the young Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
As the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger died, the dim space began to slowly shatter. Sunset Forest's twilight spilled through the cracks.
A deep-colored Soul Ring slowly rose from the corpse.
Jiang Siming dragged the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's corpse toward the Poison Barrier surrounding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
After passing through the Poison Barrier, Jiang Siming looked up. Faintly, the sky above the mountaintop reflected two auroras, one red and one blue.
"After I absorb this Soul Ring, should I go rob them—or should I go loot the place?" Jiang Siming wondered shamelessly.
"Better take care of business first." Jiang Siming immediately sat down cross-legged and began absorbing the Soul Ring.
The deep-colored Soul Ring slowly drew close to the top of Jiang Siming's head.
Pain showed on Jiang Siming's face.
"This Dark Demon Evil God Tiger has too much evil energy. It's starting to erode my meridians. Immortal Slaying Sword, come out!" Jiang Siming summoned the Immortal Slaying Sword. At once, two forces surged through his meridians, clashing with each other. The Immortal Slaying Sword's killing force could also erode things, and it began gradually eating away at the evil energy.
Half an hour later, Jiang Siming finally finished absorbing it.
"Ding! Congratulations, host. First Martial Soul unlocked: 34%. The Immortal Trapping Sword has been unsealed. You have obtained the fourth Rusty Sword."
