Evil God Hook? It's Not as Strong as My Fishhook

Inside the dark abyss lair.

Faced with Yan Buhui's arrogant, presumptuous, and unrestrained words,

the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger refused to show weakness.

He had never heard the legend of a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix, either.

But the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was certain of one thing: Yan Buhui, that great phoenix, clearly had a death wish!

Immediately afterward,

the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger shouted furiously, "Do you know who I am?"

"I am the chosen son among Soul Beasts, personally selected by the Evil God!"

"How could you possibly withstand my Evil God Hook?"

Seeing the furious Dark Demon Evil God Tiger,

Yan Buhui almost laughed.

Then he asked in return, "And do you know who I am?!"

"Who cares who you are? You trespassed on your Lord Tiger's territory, so you must die! You even dared to protect those two beasts, the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape. That makes you my enemy. Die!!"

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had no intention of reasoning with Yan Buhui, unless Yan Buhui beat him into submission.

Otherwise,

the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger would never willingly become anyone's subordinate,

much less serve

an opponent who protected his enemies.

Yan Buhui had to pay the price for it. That was what the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was thinking at the moment.

"Tsk."

"Little tiger, you really are arrogant."

"You're the first to call yourself lord in front of me, Yan Buhui."

Yan Buhui raised a hand and gathered a wisp of gentle Green Lotus Core Flame. He said to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, "Today, I'll teach you, a thousand-year-old arrogant rebel, a proper lesson on Wu Song's behalf!!!"

Suddenly!

A green lotus-colored flame gathered around them.

Like green lotus petals, it lit the dark abyss lair like a lamp.

Even the three Ant Emperor Qian Jun brothers watching the battle outside could not help remarking,

"Lord Flame Emperor is getting serious. This Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is in for a terrible time. What a pity."

Then the third Ant Emperor Qian Jun said,

"Hey, big brother, Lord Flame Emperor won't lose to this tiger, will he?"

"What are you saying, third brother? Lord Flame Emperor won't be defeated."

At this moment, the eldest Ant Emperor Qian Jun hoped for Yan Buhui's victory more than anyone.

"I hope so."

The third Ant Emperor Qian Jun nodded. All his life, he had never dared defy or resist his eldest brother's words.

It had been that way since the three of them were little Qian Jun Ants.

Only after they devoured the Ant Queen Qian Jun did the three Ant Emperor Qian Jun brothers truly rise to prominence.

Meanwhile,

the battle between Yan Buhui and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger continued in a frenzy.

Looking at the green lotus flames, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had never seen anything like it.

The instant the Evil God Hook touched the green lotus flame, it caught fire and began to burn.

A moment later,

the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger used his spatial jumping ability again,

attempting to sound the horn for one final counterattack against Yan Buhui.

With a sudden shudder, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger spat out an energy sphere imbued with wind, lightning, and evil elements, sending it blasting straight toward Yan Buhui's forehead.

"Lord Flame Emperor, watch out!"

The Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape's hearts leaped into their throats. This was the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's strongest move, Dark Demon Evil Thunder!

Dark Demon Evil Thunder consisted of layers of gray light that gathered into a sphere around its body. It was also an extremely powerful skill of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, capable of fusing its own demonic power and evil power into one.

Then, in an instant, it unleashed terrifying power: an area attack combining the three elemental attributes of wind, lightning, and evil!!

It could not be called anything but powerful!

Yan Buhui casually waved a hand,

signaling for the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape not to worry.

He naturally had a way to deal with the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's Dark Demon Evil Thunder!

Just as the Dark Demon Evil Thunder gathered into a massive sphere and hurtled toward Yan Buhui again,

ghastly white flames began to rise from Yan Buhui's body. Though they looked like ordinary flames, they were in fact cold enough to pierce the bones, and no one dared approach!

That was right. This was the Bone Chilling Flame, which Venerable Yao had risked his life to obtain.

He later bestowed it upon his precious disciple, Lucky Brother Xiao Yan.

Later still, the Bone Chilling Flame became a tool flame for upgrading the Emperor Flame.

But at this moment, it was Yan Buhui who possessed the Bone Chilling Flame.

Over the past few days, Yan Buhui had mastered the Heavenly Flames he had absorbed, as well as his other flames, until he could wield them to perfection and knew them by heart.

As ghastly white flames rose from Yan Buhui's body,

the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger panicked.

He had never imagined that the temperature of these flames... could be so cold!!

Just as the Sky Azure Bull Python, the Titan Giant Ape, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger hesitated,

a blast of Yan Buhui's Bone Chilling Flame instantly shattered the incoming Dark Demon Evil Thunder. Then a breath of cold air escaped Yan Buhui's mouth!

"Phew... so weak..."

Yan Buhui chuckled and slowly emerged from the smoke and dust left by the explosion, muttering to himself.

Then he brushed the dust from his shoulders and called out to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, "Well? Little tiger, do you submit?!"

"You won't lose out by becoming my subordinate!"

"As for your grudge with the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python, let's write it off for my sake."

Following the principle of urging reconciliation rather than division,

Yan Buhui still hoped the three of them would turn their spears and shields into jade and silk. After all, they would all be working under him in the future.

"This..."

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger said, his face full of disbelief, "Your strength is truly terrifying."

"You flatter me."

Yan Buhui spoke with a heart as still as water.

He had seen far too many minor spectacles like this.

"Well?"

"Are you willing to become my subordinate?"

Yan Buhui continued to coax him. "You really are talented, but only someone like me can bring your talents to their fullest potential."

"Not only can I help you break through to the hundred-thousand-year cultivation realm, I can also help you become a god!"

"Really?!" The greatest pain in the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's life was his inability to overcome the hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation and the possibility that he might never become a god in this lifetime. Although he had received the Evil God's blessing, he might also walk the path of an evil Soul Beast in the future.

As an evil Soul Beast, he could only improve his cultivation by devouring other Soul Beasts. This greatly strengthened his dark presence and demonic power, but it also damaged some of his meridians.

He could never return to the proper path.

"Of course! It's true!"

Yan Buhui promised.

"I, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, am willing to acknowledge you as my commander!"

Upon hearing this, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger immediately dropped to his knees and bowed!

Yan Buhui promptly responded, "Dispense with the formalities."

"I haven't yet asked your name, Commander, or where you come from. By the look of you, you don't seem to be a Soul Beast from the Star Dou Great Forest."

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger then voiced the question on his mind.

"My name is Yan Buhui."

"My title is Flame Emperor!"

"I come from the Land of Extreme Flame!"

"My true form is a two-hundred-thousand-year-old Evil Fire Phoenix!"

Yan Buhui continued, "From now on, stop harming other Soul Beasts to improve your cultivation. I naturally have other ways to adjust the way your body cultivates!"

"Tenth update!"
