To ensure his safety, he would beat the guy up every now and then on the way back, making sure it didn't even have the strength to run away!
Chapter 218 We are all living with all our might
" The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is extremely intelligent. It must have sensed something because you didn't kill it, so it's been disguising itself the whole way." Bi Ji bit her lower lip, her voice trembling slightly, clearly still shaken.
"Just now, I should have been the one sucked in."
Zi JI frowned, filled with doubt. "But what kind of move is this?"
Even Di Tian's attacks failed to penetrate its defenses; surely this Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, even with a cultivation level of 100,000 years, shouldn't be this powerful?
"I don't know." Di Tian's expression was extremely grim. This was also his first time fighting against the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. In the past, this kind of Soul Beast would never dare to appear in front of him, let alone get this close!
"Then... what do we do now?" The Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked bewildered, clearly still reeling from the unexpected turn of events.
"Aunt Bing, my lord, do you know what this is?" Di Tian stopped wasting words with Xiong Jun and turned to the bottom of the Lake of Life for help.
"It should be the Life and Death Arena," the Silver Dragon King said in a deep voice.
"That's a special skill powered by the Evil God's Power. Once caught in it, you'll be teleported to a separate space. The battle won't end until one side dies."
"And... this is an unfair battle."
"Unfair?" Di Tian was taken aback.
"What's the meaning?"
" The Evil God's Power contains the ability to manipulate time. Once activated, it will turn the opponent into a child, while the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger itself, after being absorbed into it, will be immune to the effects of this skill due to its protective defense," the Silver Dragon King said.
"Fortunately, Xiong Jun broke through the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's defense in time. They should both be turned into their juvenile state by this skill now."
"But Xuan Ming is just a human. Once he returns to his childhood state, his Martial Soul might not even be awakened yet. How could he possibly defeat the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?" Di Tian said worriedly.
Even in its juvenile form, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is still a top-tier Soul Beast!
How can humans fight against such a being?
"If they were both in their infancy... he wouldn't lose," the Ice Dragon King said.
The Silver Dragon King was slightly taken aback. "Why?"
"Human Martial Soul exist from birth. Apart from being guided out through an awakening ceremony, Beast Martial Soul can also awaken prematurely if they encounter sufficient stimulation," said the Ice Dragon King.
"His previous Martial Soul Awakening wasn't smooth sailing to begin with, and now... I believe he won't die so easily."
Meanwhile, in the Life and Death Arena, both Xuan Ming and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger reverted to their juvenile forms.
The Black Dragon behind Xuan Ming vanished without a trace, and his body became extremely thin, as if he had returned to the state before his Martial Soul Awakening.
Although the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had shrunk in size, it still exuded a chilling aura. Its eyes flashed with a cold red light as it stared intently at Xuan Ming, letting out a low roar.
Its original target was the Emerald Swan with a cultivation level of over 500,000 years. If it could devour that creature, it could even immediately reach a cultivation level of over 100,000 years!
Escaping this place will be a piece of cake!
But because of this guy, it almost died outside!
"Rejuvenation?" Xuan Ming felt his empty and weak body. Not only was his Martial Soul gone, but he could also not feel the Dragon King's dragon bones. His body was also suppressed by an invisible force, making him unable to move.
"Welcome to the Life and Death Arena. Only when one side dies can this life-or-death battle end and the player leave this space. Countdown: five, four, three, two, one, begin."
As the strange sound subsided, the stagnation vanished completely, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger transformed into a black shadow, pouncing fiercely.
Despite his physical limitations, Xuan Ming, honed through long-term combat, allowed him to roll to the side with all his might the moment the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger pounced.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's claws grazed his shoulder, drawing a trail of blood, and a sharp pain shot through him instantly.
Looking at the bloody wound on his shoulder, Xuan Ming frowned deeply.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger grew even more excited by the smell of blood. With a deep roar, wisps of gray energy began to rise from its body and slowly condense in front of it.
"You seem to really enjoy playing dirty tricks?" Xuan Ming suddenly asked.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was slightly taken aback, somewhat puzzled as to why this human, despite being injured, showed no fear whatsoever.
"Actually, I have many ways to kill you now." Xuan Ming took out a small metal ball from his Soul Tool.
"For example, this is filled with a high concentration of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Poison. Once it's released, you can't escape it, but I have the antidote."
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger narrowed its eyes and stopped gathering Dark Demon Evil Thunder. It could sense a deadly threat from that small metal sphere!
"And these too." Xuan Ming took out two more special Soul Tool that Bibi Dong had prepared for him from his Soul Tool.
Offensive Soul Tool are extremely rare in this era, but they do exist!
The Spirit Hall possesses offensive Soul Tool, but lacks the talent in this area, and their manufacturing is extremely difficult. Only the children of Titled Douluo elders can obtain such items, making them as precious as Soul Bone.
When he returned to Heaven Dou City from Spirit City, Bibi Dong gave him two gifts: a single-shot special crossbow Soul Tool and a rapid-fire highly poisonous needle Soul Tool, which were meant to be his life-saving weapons for critical moments.
He had tried it before; killing ordinary Thousand-Year Soul Beast head-on was effortless!
At this moment, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was not even Ten-Year Soul Beast, and it would surely die in the face of these two items in his hands.
"Even if you were still in your 60,000-year-old state, I could still kill you." Xuan Ming took out the Snow-Colored Swan Kiss.
"This stuff can amplify the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Poison a thousandfold. I believe there are very few people in the world who could withstand a thousandfold increase in the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Poison."
"As for me," Xuan Ming said, taking out a large, pale pink flower, which was the Aromatic Silk Beauty that could neutralize all toxins.
"I have my own ways of protecting myself."
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's eyes flickered slightly, and it instinctively took a few steps back.
"What, scared?" Xuan Ming's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a low roar, clearly enraged by Xuan Ming's words.
However, it was still wary of the treasures in Xuan Ming's possession and did not launch an attack immediately.
"But don't worry, I won't use these things." Xuan Ming put everything back into his Soul Tool.
"Let's try another way!"
Xuan Ming's eyes narrowed, his heart pounded, and his Soul Power surged rapidly. In the next instant, two angry roars rang out, and two newly born Black Dragon suddenly grew out from behind Xuan Ming, their eyes flashing with terrifying red light as they stared intently at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
A cold white light exploded from Xuan Ming's body, but the range was not large, only covering two or three meters around Xuan Ming.
Under the white light, the bloody wound on Xuan Ming's shoulder began to heal, and disappeared completely in just a few breaths.
Xuan Ming stared intently at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, his heart pounding faster and faster. His blood surged, and his thin body swelled at a visible speed, becoming stronger. Black scales slowly appeared on his body, and his limbs underwent a certain degree of Dragon Transformation.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger looked at Xuan Ming, who had undergone a tremendous change, and a hint of fear flashed in its eyes.
Although it was a top-tier Soul Beast, possessing innate arrogance and ferocity, it couldn't help but feel a chill in its heart when faced with this sudden change.
The oppressive aura emanating from Xuan Ming made it instinctively realize that the human before it was stronger than it!
"You really enjoy playing dirty tricks, don't you?" Xuan Ming's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cruel smile.
The next instant, before the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger could react, Xuan Ming suddenly pushed off the ground, shooting out and rushing to the front of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
A cold white light exploded, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger felt a suffocating sense of oppression. Immediately afterward, a heavy fist as hard as steel landed on its head.
Bang!
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger felt a sharp pain in its head, and saw stars before its eyes. Its body was sent flying backward by the punch, but it had only flown halfway when another sharp pain came from its side. Looking closely, it saw a Black Dragon behind Xuan Ming biting its left foreleg.
Before it could think any further, Xuan Ming's fist came crashing down again.
"Roar!" The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger roared, and gray aura swirled around its body, enveloping it.
Xuan Ming's fist landed on the aura of the evil god, as if it had struck steel, producing a crisp sound, and the force of the impact cracked his bones.
"Oh?" Xuan Ming withdrew his right fist, felt the cracked bone in his hand and the excruciating pain, and his smile became even more unrestrained.
"Great, it seems I can continue without worry."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Black Dragon, which had been biting the left foreleg of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, suddenly swung its head and flung the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger violently to the ground.
"Bang!" The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger slammed heavily to the ground, letting out a shrill scream, and a crack appeared on the gray shield on its body.
"Keep going, little kitty, we have plenty of time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Ming's fists rained down like raindrops, relentlessly striking the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger could only defend passively, and its gray shield gradually dimmed under Xuan Ming's attacks.
"Good luck! Don't die too quickly, that would be too boring."
Live life to the fullest!
Chapter 219 Evil Attribute
The waters of the Lake of Life remain calm and deep, with the surrounding flowers, grasses, and trees swaying gently in the breeze.
Everyone waited quietly for the result. Di Tian and Xiong Jun suppressed their anger. If the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was the one who came out alive, they would make that guy regret being born!
Time passed second by second, and finally, a black light emerged from nothingness, which then transformed into a huge black hole.
Under the tense gaze of everyone, Xuan Ming, covered in blood, fell to the ground from the black hole, followed closely by the enormous corpse of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
" Xuan Ming!"
When they saw Xuan Ming appear before them unharmed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"You dare to mess with me!" Xiong Jun walked towards the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, about to make a move, but found that half of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's body had been smashed, its limbs torn off, and its head completely smashed, making it look somewhat gruesome.
Based on his experience of fighting in the Star Dou Great Forest for hundreds of thousands of years, this Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was beaten to death with a fist!
Moreover, both the corpse and the Soul Ring exuded a strong sense of fear and collapse!
This only happens when Soul Beast collapses after experiencing immense psychological pressure and extreme pain before its death!
Xiong Jun Di Tian exchanged a glance, their gazes then falling on Xuan Ming.
This kid doesn't seem as polite as he appears!
"How... did you do that?"
Looking at the corpse of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, Zi JI recalled the explanation the Ice Dragon King had given them about the Life and Death Arena.
How could a human possibly defeat the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger when both are still in their infancy?
But judging from the current situation, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was beaten to death by Xuan Ming!
Moreover, how could emotions like fear and collapse possibly exist for Soul Beast like the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?
"We're just treating it while fighting it; I didn't expect it to be so psychologically fragile," Xuan Ming said.
"Psychologically fragile?" Zi JI's eyes twitched slightly.
She's increasingly convinced of what the Ice Dragon King said: Xuan Ming's heart is somewhat twisted!
You drove someone to the brink of collapse, and then you say they're too fragile?
"Are you... really alright?" Bi Ji asked worriedly as she treated Xuan Ming.
Xuan Ming stretched his arms, which had been badly shattered. "They're almost fully healed."
"What did you mean by 'fighting and treating simultaneously'?" the Three-Eyed Golden Lion asked, puzzled.
"My domain has healing and restorative effects. I was afraid it wouldn't be able to hold on, so I was healing it while fighting. But I don't have that much Soul Power. If I heal it, I won't be able to heal myself," Xuan Ming said.
"However, after leaving the Life and Death Arena, my injuries began to heal rapidly, and there are no problems."
"..."
If you cure it, then you can't cure yourself?
No, is that even human language?
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was a little confused, and Bi Ji and the others were also somewhat bewildered.
Only the Ice Dragon King, who had always been by Xuan Ming's side, was not surprised by this.
Xuan Ming doesn't mind others using underhanded tactics against him; after all, even underhanded tactics are still tactics, and if they can get him to use them, that's a skill in itself.
but!
