Forty Thousand Year Riftgold Demon Tiger, White Tiger Gold-Splitting Slash
After a slow and careful search lasting more than half a month, they finally found a Soul Beast that was a perfect match.
It was a Riftgold Demon Tiger, nearly seven meters long and three meters tall at the shoulder, with dark gold fur that gleamed with a cold, hard metallic luster.
This is a very rare mutated subspecies among tiger-type Soul Beast. It is born with extremely strong Metal Attribute, and its tiger claws are incredibly sharp, capable of tearing rocks. It is a perfect match for Dai Mubai's Gengjin White Tiger Martial Soul.
Dai Mubai quickly deployed. "Little Ao, everyone prepare two Flight Sausage in advance. Fatty, Rongrong, once the battle begins, Rongrong, immediately buff Teacher Zhao and me, then the three of you immediately stay far away, and whatever you do, do not get close."
"Teacher Zhao, I'll leave the direct attrition to you. Zhu Qing and I will wait for our opportunity and deliver the fatal blow with our Martial Soul Fusion Skill."
"Alright!" everyone responded in unison.
The battle begins.
Zhao Wuji's Vajra Vajra Bear Martial Soul Possession, and his level 79 Soul Power erupted without reservation, transforming into a five-meter-tall Vajra Bear.
After being strengthened by the Vajra Strength Fruit, Zhao Wuji's strength and defense were at least 50% stronger than before, making him perfectly capable of directly confronting a 40,000-year-old Soul Beast.
Ning Rongrong shouted, "The Seven Treasures Famous: First: Strength; Second: Speed; Three-Day Soul!"
Three dazzling streams of light precisely entered Zhao Wuji and Dai Mubai's bodies.
With the boost, Zhao Wuji's momentum grew even stronger. He took the initiative and roared as he pounced on the Riftgold Demon Tiger.
The two colossal beasts collided with a deafening roar, their bear paws and the Riftgold Demon Tiger's claws tearing at each other in a frenzied battle, the thunderous sound like metal clashing sending chills down one's spine.
After a quarter of an hour of evenly matched attrition, the Riftgold Demon Tiger was no longer in good condition.
Dai Mubai seized the opportunity, clasped Zhu Zhuqing's hands, and unleashed his Martial Soul Fusion Skill, "Hell White Tiger"!
The giant White Tiger with wings on its back descended once more.
With a flap of its wings, the Hell White Tiger transformed into a streak of light that Rift, rushing straight towards the Riftgold Demon Tiger at incredible speed!
Just as the Riftgold Demon Tiger was staggered by Zhao Wuji's palm strike, it looked up to see the giant tiger already above its head.
It roared, and its dark golden tiger claws met the attack.
"Boom!"
The Hell White Tiger's giant claws slammed down, the two claws colliding violently, terrifying energy surging outwards and stirring up a storm.
The already extremely weak Riftgold Demon Tiger let out a mournful cry as its massive body was slammed into the ground, its fur splitting open with several deep, bone-revealing wounds from which blood gushed forth.
Dai Mubai gave it no further chances, and the tiger's claws slammed down again, completely extinguishing its life force.
A deep black Soul Ring slowly rose from the corpse of the Riftgold Demon Tiger.
The battle ended, and the dust in the forest slowly dissipated.
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing dispelled their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong quickly surrounded them from a distance.
Only Zhao Wuji was somewhat out of breath due to the significant exertion he had undergone.
He immediately ate Oscar's Recovery Sausage, then sat cross-legged and began to regulate his breathing.
Dai Mubai did not rush to absorb the Soul Ring. Instead, he walked to the corpse of the Riftgold Demon Tiger, squatted down, and examined it carefully.
Such powerful Soul Beast have an extremely high chance of producing Soul Bone.
Sure enough, there was a faint fluctuation of Soul Power on the demonic tiger's left forelimb.
With a slash of his tiger claw, Dai Mubai tore open the flesh and took out a piece of bone that was entirely dark gold.
The surface of the bone was covered with fine lines, exuding a sharp aura.
"The Riftgold Demon Tiger Left Arm Bone, in excellent condition..."
Everyone was secretly delighted.
Dai Mubai glanced around and realized that only he and Zhu Zhuqing used claw attacks, making this Soul Bone a suitable candidate.
However, this Soul Bone was "only" 40,000 years old. Dai Mubai thought it best not to rush to absorb it, so he put the Soul Bone into his Storage Ring and decided to make a plan for later.
After doing all this, Dai Mubai took a deep breath, sat cross-legged, and guided the black Soul Ring, slowly letting it sink into his body.
In an instant, the violent Soul Power surged into his meridians like a flood bursting its banks.
The impact of Forty Thousand Year Soul Ring was indeed terrifying, with violent Soul Power rampaging through the meridians.
Dai Mubai groaned, veins bulging on his forehead, and large beads of sweat rolling down his face.
Even more dangerously, a savage mental shock pierced straight into the sea of consciousness, and a giant tiger phantom wreaked havoc within it.
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, his immense spiritual power transforming into a solid barrier, desperately guarding the last vestige of clarity in his mind.
At the same time, a Gengjin White Tiger materialized in his spiritual sea, engaging in a fierce battle with the Riftgold Demon Tiger!
After a quarter of an hour of fierce fighting, the phantom of the Riftgold Demon Tiger was shattered by the Gengjin White Tiger's claw, turning into specks of starlight that nourished Dai Mubai's spiritual sea.
All that's left is to absorb the energy from the Soul Ring step by step!
Three hours later.
Dai Mubai opened his eyes, slowly stood up, and five Soul Ring rose up from his feet in succession: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, and black!
That black fifth Soul Ring was deep and intense, radiating a suffocating sense of oppression.
Dai Mubai clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within him, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.
Zhu Zhuqing and the others sensed that Dai Mubai had finished and gathered around.
Ma Hongjun asked, "Boss Dai, how was the 40,000-year-old Soul Ring? How strong is your Soul Skill?"
Dai Mubai nodded and said, "My Soul Power has reached the peak of level 52, just one step away from level 53."
Immediately, a thought flashed through his mind, and his fifth Soul Ring lit up.
"Fifth Soul Skill, White Tiger Gold-Splitting Slash!"
Dai Mubai raised his right palm, his Soul Power frantically gathering towards the tiger claw. Dai Mubai then swung it to the side, unleashing a crescent-shaped golden slash.
The strike gleamed with a chilling, eerie light, and a boulder several meters high in front of it snapped in two as easily as tofu, the cut as smooth as a mirror.
Zhao Wuji stared at the broken boulder, his pupils shrinking slightly.
He could sense that if this attack landed on him, even if he activated his Martial Soul Avatar, he would likely be severely injured.
Dai Mubai smiled faintly, "The attack power of this strike is comparable to the full-force strike of High-Rank Soul Sage. Moreover, it ignores 30% of the target's physical defense, making it extremely effective against Metal Attribute Martial Soul and Defense System Soul Master."
He secretly estimated that with the Armor Break amplification from the Darkgolden Terrorclaw and the White Tiger Darkgold Transformation, even physical defenses at the level of Soul Douluo could be effectively threatened.
A fifth Soul Ring that's 40,000 years old—truly extraordinary!
It's important to know that Soul Sage's Seventh Soul Ring typically takes only 30,000 to 40,000 years to form!
The group exchanged bewildered glances, each seeing a deep sense of shock in the other's eyes.
Dai Mubai withdrew his Martial Soul and glanced at everyone.
At this moment, the strength of the six people is as follows: Zhao Wuji is level 79, Dai Mubai is at the peak of level 52, Oscar is level 39, Zhu Zhuqing is level 38, Ma Hongjun is level 38, Ning Rongrong is level 36.
Dai Mubai laughed and said, "Let's go. This place is not safe to stay in for long. Let's leave the Star Dou Great Forest first."
Everyone nodded, and without further delay, quickly packed their belongings and sped towards the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Three days later, on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, the six figures finally emerged from the forest and breathed a sigh of relief.
After more than a month of Soul Hunting, everyone's face was etched with dust and exhaustion.
Dai Mubai said, "Let's go to the town ahead, find a decent place, and rest for a day."
