"Ha ha ha! The Beast God Di Tian was nothing special!"

Noticing the subtle expression of pain on his opponent's face, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff immediately burst into wild laughter.

Then, he bent his hind legs and assumed a stance as though he were about to continue attacking.

This thoroughly enraged the Beast God Di Tian opposite him.

"You damned lion mutt, I..."

"Roar!"

It seemed Di Tian had truly been enraged.

Red-and-black Soul Power radiated from his body, instantly forming a vast haze that enveloped him completely.

Vaguely.

This humanoid figure seemed to be transforming, as a massive black shadow slowly emerged.

This was Di Tian's true form.

It had not appeared for many years!

"Heh, you couldn't hold back already?"

After glancing at the situation around him and his own position.

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff immediately came up with a response.

He was not afraid of facing them head-on.

But Myriad Demon King and several other high-level Soul Beasts were harassing him from the side.

And Gu Yuena in the rear was no easy opponent either.

At present, trying to wipe them all out was unrealistic.

What was more, after Di Tian transformed, many Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts appeared behind him.

They were all Di Tian's underlings.

Though their combat power was weak, they were numerous.

Once he was entangled by them, it would be difficult to break free.

So at a time like this, the best tactic.

Was to roam, like in Honor of Kings!

And compared to the Soul Beasts before him, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's speed was also an advantage.

"Come on, chase me if you can!"

Having made up his mind, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff twisted his waist.

He swiftly shifted from charging forward to turning around.

Then he began weaving constantly through the enemy encirclement!

"You damned lion mutt!"

"Attack together! Surround him!"

Di Tian saw through the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's scheme at a glance.

But faced with this fellow darting about like a golden bolt of lightning.

Even Di Tian found his vision swimming.

So he could only order his underlings behind him to swarm forward.

These Soul Beasts around the Hundred-Thousand-Year level were far weaker than Fierce Beasts.

But as long as they made contact with him, they could quickly slow the lion mutt's advance.

Then Myriad Demon King and the others could fill the gaps and surely capture him alive!

"Come on, come on! You run like snails—you can't catch me, can you?"

"Ha ha ha! Di Tian, your little underlings look quite plump and tasty!"

This was truly an extreme tug-of-war.

He knew perfectly well that they wanted to surround him.

But the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff was thinking about how to kill them instead.

If he could not kill Di Tian, could he not at least kill a few of his underlings?

"Roar!"

"Awooo!"

Very soon, the first target appeared.

It was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Six-Winged Dark Gold Tiger.

Driven by greed for merit, it had rushed ahead of its companions.

On the surface, this behavior seemed valiant.

But in reality, it was exceedingly foolish.

Though it was less than five hundred meters from its nearest companion, it had given the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff a chance to hunt it down!

"You're the one!"

"I've been running for so long that I'm hungry!"

"Black tiger blood should be quite nourishing, right?"

"Whoosh!"

The golden lightning charging forward abruptly doubled back without warning!

He kicked fiercely off a towering ancient tree.

"Boom!"

The giant tree exploded into fragments.

Using the recoil, he transformed into a golden reaper and pounced straight at the isolated Dark Gold Tiger.

The Six-Winged Dark Gold Tiger had its blood-filled maw wide open.

Then, golden light suddenly blazed before its eyes.

An overwhelming sense of fatal danger instantly enveloped it!

"Too slow, big kitty!"

A mocking, wild laugh exploded beside its ear.

It was not given any time to react.

There was no flashy clash of Soul Skills.

Only the purest speed and violence!

Dark gold flashed faintly!

It was the incomparably sharp Heaven-Rending Claw.

Golden afterimages crossed past one another.

The defense the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast had been so proud of was like paper!

"Squelch!"

The sharp blade pierced flesh.

The Six-Winged Dark Gold Tiger did not even manage to scream.

Its massive body suddenly stiffened before crashing heavily to the ground!

"Thanks for the meal!"

"Di Tian, your underling isn't very bright, is he?"

"Gulp!"

"Riiip!"

After a fierce bout of biting and tearing.

A huge chunk of flesh was ripped alive from the tiger's body, and it instantly lost its life.

As its body fell, a red Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring emerged.

And the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff did not hesitate, opening his mouth and biting down on it!

"You damned brat! Let him go!"

Seeing his subordinate hunted right before his eyes.

Di Tian was instantly consumed by rage.

He no longer cared about appearances.

The Black Dragon flapped his wings and charged over at top speed.

But the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff was faster.

This time, he did not linger over the Six-Winged Dark Gold Tiger's flesh.

Instead, he swallowed that Soul Ring whole, made another wide turning maneuver.

And rapidly dashed into the bushes in the opposite direction!

He once again evaded Di Tian's dragon claws without injury!

"Roar!"

"You damned brat, if you've got the guts, stop hiding!"

Seeing his empty claws.

And the fierce tiger lying in a pool of blood nearby.

Di Tian let out a thunderous roar.

His heart was filled with indescribable frustration!

If Gu Yuena had not ordered him to capture the target alive.

Di Tian would never have endured such humiliation.

He would have already unleashed his ultimate move!

And just as the giant dragon wailed.

An electronic notification that had not appeared for some time rang out in the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's mind once more.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, on your first hunt of a Soul Beast over one hundred thousand years old. Your cultivation has increased to 250,000 years, and a 200,000-year Heavenly Tribulation may be triggered at any time.] [Please make sure you are prepared to undergo the tribulation!] [Ding! The system has detected that the Six-Winged Dark Gold Tiger's bloodline has undergone a fusion mutation with your Lion Mastiff Bloodline.] [Congratulations, you have obtained a new skill, Tiger's Minion...]

Interesting!

Wasn't that an idiom?

It came from the mysterious Eastern world of that blue planet.

Legend had it that prey eaten by tigers had a certain chance of becoming something like a wandering spirit.

They retained some of the skills and memories from life, yet were utterly loyal to the tiger that killed them.

Those tigers with some cultivation would release their wandering spirit underlings to help lure prey.

Thus came the saying, Tiger's Minion.

"Interesting!"

"Isn't this the Spirit Soul System Huo Yuhao established in Douluo Continent Two?"

Upon hearing the system prompt.

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff suddenly had an idea.

Vaguely, he felt as though he had grasped something!

Something that could change the entire Douluo system!

Huo Yuhao's Spirit Soul System originated from a gift bestowed by the Undead Holy Mage Electrolux.

It could turn a Soul Beast's energy and soul into a Spirit Soul with independent consciousness and place it within one's spiritual sea.

In the original work, Huo Yuhao obtained seven great Spirit Souls through this.

Then he had the seven Spirit Souls master seven emotions and inherit the God of Emotions' divine position.

Though Tiger's Minion might not necessarily allow him to become a god.

It could still achieve a similar effect!

"I like it!"

"If I could turn Di Tian into my servant, that would be wonderful!"

"And Gu Yuena wouldn't be bad either!"

But just as the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff was indulging in wild fantasies.

His Heavenly Tribulation descended once more!

"Rumble!"

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

"What?"

"Where did this Lightning Tribulation come from?"

"Did we see a ghost? Is another Soul Beast undergoing tribulation?"

The high-level Soul Beasts present were all terrified by the abnormal phenomenon in the sky.

After all, every Hundred-Thousand-Year Heavenly Tribulation brought horrifying death.

Especially for those whose strength had not yet reached one hundred thousand years.

At this moment, they were already scared stiff.

"Not good, it's that lion mutt! How did this brat's blood vitality break through two hundred thousand years?"

Very quickly, the high-level Fierce Beasts present discovered in astonishment...

This was the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's Heavenly Tribulation?

"Didn't this brat just pass his Hundred-Thousand-Year Tribulation? Why was a 200,000-year one coming so soon?"

"Even a woman's period doesn't come as fast as this!"
