Dark Demon, Sandbag, Evil God Tiger

In the Star Dou Great Forest, in a region where the mixed zone neared the outer perimeter.

Di Tian led the way, with Gu Yuena and Huo Yuhao walking side by side, followed by a group of fierce beasts with varying expressions.

Xiong Jun kept his head lowered; the previous ferocity in his golden eyes had vanished, replaced only by deep trepidation.

He was confident he could easily crush that human to death, yet this suppression of bloodline made it impossible for Xiong Jun to even harbor a thought of resistance.

For soul beasts, lineage and strength were everything.

"Sovereign, the territory of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is just ahead."

Di Tian stopped and pointed forward.

Compared to the area they were currently in, the space ahead seemed plunged into night, filled with an aura of darkness.

The air surrounding the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's territory was unnervingly clean; all the soul beasts that had once lived here had been devoured by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, converted into its own cultivation.

"ROAR!!"

A massive tiger's roar erupted from the area ahead. Clearly, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had already sensed the arrival of Huo Yuhao and his group.

Deep in the forest, a giant, pitch-black tiger was frantically slamming against a transparent barrier.

This was a seal Gu Yuena had set up before the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger could detect them, specifically to prevent it from fleeing once it realized they were there.

The spatial attributes possessed by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger were utterly insignificant before Gu Yuena.

No matter how it manipulated the power of space, it could not escape the barrier.

In its rage and desperation, it let out an unmasked, maddened roar.

It naturally knew what the consequences would be if it were discovered.

Even if it had to die, it would make the soul beasts that came to hunt it pay a heavy price!

Since it could not escape, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger stopped struggling, instead concealing its form, hoping to use the advantage of its domain to ambush and kill as many as it could.

Why are they all humans?

No, wait, those are soul beasts!

Sensing a strong sense of crisis from Xiong Jun, Di Tian, and the others, the fur on the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's body stood on end.

Damn it, in the Star Dou Great Forest, weren't the only ones capable of threatening it that Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape?

Where did these soul beasts come from!

Upon entering the territory of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, Huo Yuhao had activated Spirit Detection and Spirit Sharing.

Every soul beast, including Gu Yuena, saw everything that Huo Yuhao's spiritual power "saw."

This included the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which thought it was well-hidden but was actually being watched with perfect clarity.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was over eight meters long, its fur pitch-black without a single stray color.

Its muscles bulged, filled with explosive power.

Most peculiar was its tail, composed of countless bony segments, ending in a massive, scorpion-like barb.

Though its cultivation was only sixty thousand years, its strength was slightly superior to the average hundred-thousand-year soul beast. It lay in wait, silent and still, its bloodthirsty red eyes fixed on the intruders, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.

"Damn it!"

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger cursed through gritted teeth; it could not take down any of the soul beasts in that group.

The only reason it hadn't been easily killed by them was that it had eaten well and grown strong over the past few years.

"Hm?"

Just as the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger thought it was doomed, it noticed Huo Yuhao, who seemed to be protected in the center by the soul beasts.

They seemed to hold him in high regard!

Just as the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was contemplating how to strike at Huo Yuhao, Xiong Jun stepped forward.

"Sovereign, a member of my clan died at the hands of this evil tiger. My Lord only needs its soul ring; leave the process of subduing it to me!"

Xiong Jun was already filled with killing intent toward the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger due to the death of his clansman.

Having been stifled by Huo Yuhao earlier, he needed a battle to vent the negative emotions in his heart.

In any case, to obtain a soul ring, the soul master only needed to deliver the final blow.

As for the process before that final strike, it was the perfect opportunity for him to have some fun!

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's expression shifted instantly, its red eyes filled with terror.

The only soul beast it had eaten recently whose clan was protective enough to seek revenge was a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

The absurdity of that race was only slightly less than that of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger itself.

Now, a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear with cultivation clearly superior to its own wanted to have an intimate encounter with it—it had no way to resist!

Huo Yuhao looked at Xiong Jun, then at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which was clearly preparing for a desperate struggle, and smiled at Xiong Jun. "Then I leave it to you."

With a cruel, hideous grin, Xiong Jun walked toward the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's hiding spot.

As he took his first step, the two-meter-tall burly man vanished, replaced by a giant bear standing fifteen meters high.

Xiong Jun swung his right arm, his three-meter-long giant claw whistling through the air as he struck down fiercely at the spot where the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was hiding.

This strike was both fast and ferocious; even though the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger reacted with incredible speed, it was still wounded by Xiong Jun's claws.

A massive gash appeared in its pitch-black fur, and bright red blood gushed out, dripping onto the ground.

Once struck by this blow, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger realized it had no power to resist this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, who was at least four hundred thousand years old.

Yet, it was unwilling to simply wait for death!

A beam of black light shot out in a straight line, hugging the ground as it raced toward Xiong Jun. The moment the black light was released, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger condensed layers of gray light around itself into a sphere, which also shot rapidly toward Xiong Jun.

Its massive body—which appeared petite in front of Xiong Jun—erupted with evil power, accelerating its sprint as it charged straight at him.

During the charge, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's long tail arched high, its sharp Evil God Hook aimed at Xiong Jun, seemingly prepared to seize any opportunity to pierce his vitals and trade its life for his before it died.

The black light blade and Dark Demon Evil Thunder unleashed by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger caused all the vegetation in their path to corrode and wither.

If an ordinary soul master were to be hit by even one of these, they would surely lose their life at its hands.

Xiong Jun did not dodge the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's attacks; he met them with his right claw, and those two attacks were instantly shredded into nothingness by the claw force that tore through space.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw's momentum remained undiminished as it slapped the charging Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, sending it flying.

The eyes of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger became clear in that moment.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger slammed into the ground with a thunderous crash, kicking up a massive cloud of dust.

"Daring to eat my kin, today you shall pay with your life!"

Xiong Jun's claws landed repeatedly on the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's body. Without using any skills and relying solely on the strength of his physical form, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger didn't last more than a few blows before it was left on the verge of death.
