No matter what, this Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had to die today.
He could not keep raising him any longer, or he might very well turn on him.
"Do I have any other choice?"
"If you had come a year or two later, I might have broken free, but coming at this time clearly leaves me no way out."
"I choose to cooperate, but you have to promise to resurrect me once you reach the Divine Realm."
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's words this time were truly sincere.
From the day he was imprisoned, he had begun trying to escape.
But this fellow's means of imprisoning him were extremely strange, containing a power he could neither break free of nor devour.
Although his age was increasing, the source of his power remained suppressed.
These years of imprisonment had gradually tempered some of his brutality and brought him a little clarity. Already intelligent, he understood very well the situation he now faced.
"You've made the right decision."
"If the opportunity arises in the future, you may even get to taste the source power of a deity in the Divine Realm."
Dai Mubai looked at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger with a smile.
Then he used his spiritual power to send a message to Zhu Zhuqing outside, telling her to come in.
This act was also a show of force to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
It warned him not to try any clever tricks.
His current spiritual power was enough to see through all the tiger's little schemes.
Feeling the spiritual power Dai Mubai released, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger abandoned his final scheme as well.
Deep down, he truly did not want to submit to this fellow.
The problem was that this fellow was far too savage.
Although he brought him plenty of food every time he came, he would also beat him senseless.
He beat him until he truly had no temper left.
Soon, Zhu Zhuqing appeared beside Dai Mubai.
"This is..."
Seeing the powerful soul beast before her, Zhu Zhuqing felt a crushing pressure.
How could she describe that feeling? It was like a mouse encountering a cat. The crushing pressure and suppression of a natural predator could suffocate a person.
"An eighty-thousand-year soul beast, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. An exceptionally powerful kind of soul beast."
Dai Mubai briefly introduced the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger to Zhu Zhuqing.
"You want to make him your soul ring? Isn't his age a little too high...?"
After hearing Dai Mubai's introduction, Zhu Zhuqing immediately grew nervous.
At this moment, she still thought Dai Mubai intended to use the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger as his soul ring.
Even now, she still did not know Dai Mubai's true cultivation, but she knew very well that only a Titled Douluo could absorb an eighty-thousand-year soul ring.
"He isn't going to be my soul ring. He's going to be yours."
"Don't worry. I've already prepared everything for you."
Seeing the worry all over Zhu Zhuqing's face, Dai Mubai smiled gently, then turned to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
"Remember what you promised me!"
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger hesitated no longer and immediately began his sacrifice.
Since he had already decided to submit, he would not waver any further.
As the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger began his sacrifice, Dai Mubai split his spiritual attention between two tasks.
On one hand, he monitored Zhu Zhuqing's soul, guarding against any tricks from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. On the other, he kept constant watch over the tiger himself, waiting for the Evil God Pearl to appear.
He knew very well that, in the original story, even Tang San had missed out on this Evil God Pearl.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger behaved himself fairly well. Knowing he could do nothing under Dai Mubai's watchful eyes, he obediently sacrificed himself, after which part of his soul merged into the soul ring.
Just then, a pearl flew out of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's body.
"Trying to run? Freeze!"
Unleashing his powerful spiritual power, Dai Mubai immediately immobilized the pearl. At the same time, he activated the Inverted Gravity Domain and Indestructible Vajra, darted forward, and seized the Evil God Pearl, holding it firmly in place.
It was ultimately an inanimate object. Even with the ability to tear through space, it lacked support of its own, Dai Mubai had come prepared, and most of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's power had already been sacrificed to Zhu Zhuqing. Under these circumstances, the Evil God Pearl failed to break free of Dai Mubai's grip.
Unable to leave, it changed its approach and burrowed into Dai Mubai's body.
"Just what I wanted!"
Dai Mubai showed no fear at this.
This was precisely the moment he had been waiting for.
The Mysterious Heaven Skill circulated furiously, while Indestructible Vajra crushed down layer after layer, continuously drawing out and absorbing the Evil God Pearl's power.
His current physique and body were enough to withstand this ravaging.
Normally, he should have absorbed the Evil God Pearl's power with his physical body, just as Zhou Weiqing had, but this was the Douluo Continent, and the laws of the plane were different.
As the Evil God Pearl's power merged into him, another part of the bloodline within him was also activated.
Once the Hell Spirit Cat bloodline was activated, it was immediately devoured and replaced by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's bloodline power.
His second martial soul, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, gradually took shape.
He was not using the method he had learned by seeking guidance from the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. Instead, he used the Evil God Pearl's power to activate the other half of his bloodline, then devoured and fused it to form a second martial soul.
Not only that, but the Evil God Pearl's source power also remained within his body.
Now, he possessed not only an Indestructible Vajra body, but also heaven-defying regenerative abilities and an undying body.
This gain far exceeded his imagination.
By the time Dai Mubai opened his eyes again, three days had passed.
His soul power level was still 70, but his underlying foundation had undergone a fundamental improvement and transformation.
With a thought, the phantom of his second martial soul, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, appeared behind him.
My second martial soul is complete!
Wild joy surged in Dai Mubai's heart.
It had gone even more smoothly than he had expected.
According to his initial estimates and the procedure he had discussed with the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, the Evil God Pearl would merely provide an opening. He would still need enough energy to support the creation of a second martial soul.
He had never expected the Evil God Pearl to activate and improve his bloodline, then devour, fuse, and replace it, directly giving birth to a second martial soul.
Not only that, but he could also sense a connection between his two martial souls.
In other words, one day in the future, he could unleash a Self Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
Although the Darkgolden Tiger King had been born through immortal herbs and Xiong Jun's source power, at its core, its underlying nature was still the White Tiger Martial Soul.
The White Tiger was a very powerful martial soul.
Not only did it possess considerable strength, but it also had mental and light attributes.
The Nether Civet Martial Soul itself had the nether attribute, leaning toward darkness and the mind. Even after merging with the Evil God Pearl's source and transforming into the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, its underlying nature still stemmed from the Hell Spirit Cat's transformation.
Thus, that possibility existed.
However, it would still require his own cultivation and control.
Both of his martial souls were of super martial soul quality.
Whether the Darkgolden Tiger King or the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, both were top-tier beast martial souls. Their grades even surpassed super martial souls, standing second only to god-level martial souls.
Dai Mubai was truly thrilled.
With this, his final weakness had been remedied.
