Dark Demon Evil God Tiger (Part 2)

A cold, overbearing aura, carrying the vicissitudes and majesty of two hundred thousand years of cultivation, erupted with a roar.

In that instant, it actually overwhelmed the malevolent, baleful aura of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

Behind Zhu Zhuqing, the phantom of a colossal demon spider slowly emerged.

The spider's eyes flickered with a frigid light, and eerie black runes flowed across its web.

Primordial Demon Spider Emperor, Martial Soul Possession!

Eight spider legs, gleaming with a cold, dark-gold luster, burst forth from her back, lifting her half a foot off the ground with a gentle push.

Black spider patterns crawled up her cheeks, and her once slender figure now radiated a heart-stopping sense of oppression.

It seemed that the moment her Martial Soul Possession activated, she could no longer even feel the pain of her injuries.

Most terrifying of all, however, had to be her first soul ring—it was an unprecedented dark-gold soul ring!

Not far away, the rapidly approaching Dark Demon Evil God Tiger suddenly came to a halt.

Its blood-red eyes stared fixedly at the Primordial Demon Spider Emperor phantom behind Zhu Zhuqing, and a low, surprised growl rumbled in its throat.

Its massive body arched slightly, yet it did not take another step forward.

A strange luster flickered in its eyes.

Was it afraid?

No, it had simply sensed a hint of familiarity.

But it was precisely this moment of hesitation that gave Zhu Zhuqing her only chance.

She knew very well that even with the power of the Primordial Demon Spider Emperor, she was no match for this evil tiger; she could hold out for a few moves at most.

Yet she did not hesitate for a second; with a thought, her skull soul skill activated instantly.

Primordial Demon Spider Emperor Skull Soul Skill: Demon Emperor Suppression Domain!

"Hum!"

A dark-gold halo expanded from her center, instantly covering a ten-meter radius.

The air within the domain solidified like iron, and black demonic patterns spread rapidly across the ground, as if a giant spider web had shrouded the entire space.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger shuddered, wisps of black mist rising from its body as its previously tense muscles visibly slackened.

Its pride—its speed, strength, and baleful aura—had actually been suppressed by this domain!

Meanwhile, Zhu Zhuqing felt her body brimming with power; her speed, strength, and the circulation speed of her soul power all surged explosively.

But the price for this strength was a terrifying consumption of soul power.

She only had five seconds of domain time.

Without wasting a fraction of a second, the Eight Spider Lances on Zhu Zhuqing's back exerted force, and she shot toward the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger like a cannonball.

If she couldn't escape, then she would fight to the death!

"First Soul Skill: Sin-Severing Demon Scythe!"

Dark-gold soul power condensed rapidly in her hands, transforming into a giant, three-meter-long scythe.

Black spider patterns flowed along the blade, emitting a cutting force so sharp it sliced tiny fissures into the very air.

Zhu Zhuqing gripped the handle with both hands, pouring all her soul power into it, and swung with all her might at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's front leg!

"Shhh!"

The blade tore through the air with a shrill whistle, slamming heavily into the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's front leg.

A shallow bloodstain appeared instantly, and black spider venom spread rapidly along the wound, corroding its flesh.

This was the first time the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had been injured today.

It let out a deafening roar and lashed out with its front leg.

The immense force sent Zhu Zhuqing flying.

Zhu Zhuqing stumbled a few steps upon landing, her face turning as pale as paper.

The sonic impact from that single roar alone made her internal organs churn violently, and she nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

She dared not pause for even a moment.

As she looked up, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's giant claw was already descending, bringing with it a gale that tore through the air!

If this strike landed true, she would be reduced to a pulp in an instant.

"First Soul Skill: Undying Demon Body!"

A dark-gold, translucent protective shield instantly covered her entire body.

"Bang!"

The tiger claw slammed heavily against the shield with a dull, thunderous boom.

The shield shook violently, yet it actually withstood the lethal blow.

However, the overwhelming force still caused the ground beneath Zhu Zhuqing's feet to collapse instantly.

She spat out a mouthful of blood, her entire body sent flying back over a dozen meters by the impact.

Before she could even land, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's barbed tail whipped across like a venomous snake.

"Crack!"

Deprived of soul power support, her Undying Demon Body shattered completely.

The barbs on the tail grazed her shoulder, tearing away a spray of blood and carving a wound deep enough to expose bone.

Zhu Zhuqing slammed into the ground, two of her Eight Spider Lances snapping off, the agony causing her vision to black out.

She propped herself up against the ground, trying to stand, but her bones felt as if they had fallen apart, and her soul power was all but exhausted.

At the same time, the five-second duration of the domain expired.

The dark golden halo dissipated, and Zhu Zhuqing's aura withered away.

She coughed violently, spitting mouthfuls of blood onto the ground, staining the fallen leaves beneath her crimson.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger shook its head, completely shaking off the effects of the spider venom.

Its blood-red eyes were filled with tyrannical killing intent as it stalked toward Zhu Zhuqing step by step.

It had been thoroughly enraged.

Zhu Zhuqing gritted her teeth, using the last of her strength to pour every remaining drop of soul power into her Head Bone.

This was her final trump card!

Primordial Demon Spider Emperor Head Bone Skill: Myriad Calamity Demon Flash!

A beam of light, condensed from all her soul and spirit power, erupted outward.

The beam was pure black, its edges rimmed with a dark golden glow.

It made no sound, yet it carried an aura of absolute destruction, ignoring physical defenses to strike straight at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's head!

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's pupils constricted as it sensed a profound threat.

At such close range, it could not dodge completely and could only jerk its head to the side.

The beam grazed its shoulder, leaving behind a charred, scorched mark.

A terrifying soul shockwave instantly swept through its mind, forcing a pained roar from its throat as its massive body was knocked back half a step.

But this was the absolute limit of what Zhu Zhuqing could achieve.

She collapsed onto the ground, lacking even the strength to lift a finger.

The dark golden soul ring beneath her feet gradually dimmed, and the phantom of the Demon Spider behind her began to turn transparent, finally dissipating into the air.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger shook its head, and before long, it shook off the effects of the soul shock.

It let out a roar filled with murderous intent, leaped high into the air, and brought its massive tiger paw down toward Zhu Zhuqing's head with the force of a world-ending blow!

Zhu Zhuqing closed her eyes.

I'm sorry, Teacher.

I still couldn't survive.

Everything is going to end here...

"It isn't over yet."

That low, magnetic voice, which had been absent for many days, finally echoed in her mind once more.

Zhu Zhuqing's heart trembled.

Is it a hallucination?

A hallucination before death?

Warm liquid slid from the corners of her eyes.

But the next second, she felt a cool hand gently wipe the tears from her cheeks.

The sensation was impossibly real.

The anticipated agony and death did not arrive.

She summoned her courage and slowly opened her eyes.

What came into view was a hand with clearly defined knuckles.
