Dark Demon Evil God Tiger

"So, all we can do now is hope that powerful soul beast pulled through. As long as he is still alive, he surely won't stand by and do nothing if those humans invade."

Ah Rou calmly assessed the situation. "So, we must confirm the condition of that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. If he truly did not make it... we can at least make plans sooner."

"But... that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast clearly drove us away. If we go there rashly, won't we anger him?"

Ah Yin seemed to recall the disdain and loathing in Myriad Demon King's eyes, and her voice became hesitant.

"Even if we anger him, he probably won't kill us. But if we do not find out his condition, we will definitely die when those humans arrive."

Ah Rou took a deep breath and still decided to inspect Myriad Demon King's condition.

Within their small group, Ah Rou was clearly the backbone, so her proposal received unanimous approval.

Soon, the several Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts slowly made their way toward the core region.

"These soul beasts certainly know how to avoid danger. Every last one of them has hidden away; we cannot even see a trace of them now."

Sensing the utter silence in their surroundings, Mighty Lion Douluo could not help sighing.

His words drew a soft laugh from Light Plume Douluo. "These soul beasts are not fools. Seeking advantage and avoiding harm is their instinct. Given the terrifying scene just now, let alone these soul beasts, even we would not dare set foot here lightly."

Azure Luan Douluo nodded and immediately said, "These soul beasts will need to remain hidden for some time before gradually resuming normal activity. Conservatively speaking, we probably will not see any of them within a day."

"No... not necessarily."

Though Qian Daoliu's voice was calm, the other consecrates heard a trace of surprise in his tone.

The consecrates immediately grew serious and followed the Grand Consecrate's gaze.

Several hundred meters ahead of them, within the forest that seemed to have been ravaged by lightning from the heavens, a faint gray-black mist had appeared at some unknown time, shrouding a vast area in darkness.

Then, a massive figure slowly strode out from the gray-black mist.

It was an enormous black tiger, pure black from head to toe without a single strand of other color. Its red eyes were filled with an eerie aura, and its body stretched more than eight meters long, its muscles bulging all over. Most peculiar of all was its tail. Compared to an ordinary tiger soul beast's tail, it was far longer and stood upright, made up of countless bone segments. At its very tip was a massive barb, gleaming with a cold, sinister light.

It slowly raised its head, its scarlet tiger eyes brimming with savagery as they swept across the crowd.

Although the Star Dou Great Forest had just been engulfed by the terror of the Heavenly Tribulation, although that horrifying tribulation had only just ended, this soul beast had not been affected in the slightest. Rather than hiding like the other soul beasts, it had come out to begin its hunt.

And at this moment, it had clearly regarded them as nourishment for the evolution of its cultivation.

Azure Luan Douluo frowned tightly. The aura emanating from this soul beast was not merely powerful, but filled with an ultimate evil and filth, as though it wished to drag all light and holiness in the world into a mire.

"This is..."

"Dark Demon Evil God Tiger." Qian Daoliu calmly spoke its name, a hint of astonishment flashing through his eyes. "A forbidden existence said to have been born when a wisp of the Evil God's divine consciousness descended and forcibly fused with a Hundred-Thousand-Year White Tiger soul beast. It possesses the attributes of evil, wind, lightning, space, time, and strength. It can also continuously devour soul masters and other soul beasts to endlessly increase its cultivation."

"At present, this Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's cultivation is roughly... sixty thousand years."

A trace of surprise flashed through Bibi Dong's eyes as she stood beside Ling Jing.

This soul beast... was highly compatible with her, and Little Jing had mentioned this kind of soul beast before at the Icefire Yin Yang Well.

"This soul beast is quite compatible with Dong'er's Martial Soul. However... compared with the Death Spider Emperor Martial Soul Dong'er is currently cultivating, it is even more compatible with the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor Martial Soul."

As he spoke, Qian Daoliu unconsciously looked toward Bibi Dong.

Cultivating Twin Martial Souls was extremely difficult; before this, no one had ever succeeded. Back then, Qian Xunji had searched through many ancient texts before determining that one Martial Soul should be cultivated first. Only after reaching the rank of Titled Douluo, when one's physical constitution had been raised to its limit, should Soul Rings be added to the second Martial Soul.

Dong'er had not yet reached the rank of Titled Douluo, but she had already reached level eighty...

If this soul beast were used as the first Soul Ring for her second Martial Soul, would Dong'er be able to withstand it?

If she merely added one Soul Ring to her second Martial Soul, the energy contained within it should not be enough to make Bibi Dong's body explode and kill her.

In just an instant, Qian Daoliu made his decision.

"Dong'er, this soul beast is perfectly suited to become the first Soul Ring of your second Martial Soul!"

"Alright."

Bibi Dong stepped forward without the slightest hesitation. Her voice was as calm as still water, but Ling Jing caught the fleeting blaze in her deep eyes.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger lowered its forelimbs, releasing a low growl from deep within its throat. Its segmented scorpion tail also rose high, the barb at its end carving a cold arc through the air.

Bibi Dong intended to kill this soul beast herself?

Ling Jing grabbed Bibi Dong, who was about to rush out and attack, stopping her.

It was not that he doubted Bibi Dong's strength. He simply felt that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's special ability was utterly absurd—the Space Colosseum could rewind time to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's infancy, while its enemy would likewise return to infancy.

Tang San could rely on hidden weapons to win, but the young Bibi Dong would have difficulty resisting a soul beast's innate advantage.

So... it would be safer to let Qian Daoliu make the move.

"Grandpa Qian, please help Senior Sister suppress this soul beast."

At his words, a trace of confusion immediately appeared in Bibi Dong's eyes. Then, she saw Ling Jing rise onto his tiptoes, seemingly wanting to whisper something to her.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong's cheeks reddened slightly. She hurriedly bent down a little and leaned her ear toward Ling Jing.

Feeling Ling Jing's warm breath, Bibi Dong's body involuntarily trembled faintly, and the tips of her ears flushed red.

But after hearing Ling Jing's explanation, Bibi Dong's expression changed slightly.

She did not ask why Ling Jing knew the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger possessed such an innate divine ability. She merely nodded gently, and a strange look appeared in her eyes as she looked at Ling Jing.
