Joining Forces

A large amount of blood-colored baleful qi surged from Blood Firmament's mouth.

As the baleful qi churned, it transformed into a hundred-foot blood tiger that pounced at the Three-Corpse Hound.

The middle head of the Three-Corpse Hound opened its mouth and spat out a bolt of lightning.

In an instant, the baleful qi on the blood tiger rose and dispersed.

The blood tiger's form also blurred, its ferocious might greatly diminished.

"Lead it toward Yinshuo and Blood Brow."

Having said that, Blood
