Isn't That the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger? How Did It Get So Lame?

Jun Yan had Twin Martial Souls: Wood Release and the Rinnegan. However, he had cultivated Wood Release first.

Over the past twenty years, every one of his Soul Rings had come from a plant-type Soul Beast. It could be said that he had maxed out his talent in vitality. At the same time, that was also an important reason he had recovered from his injuries in just one day.

This time, I still need to find a plant-type Soul Beast, Jun Yan decided.

The Star Dou Great Forest was vast, and finding a suitable Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast within it was no simple matter.

Jun Yan walked through the forest for quite a while without finding a suitable Soul Beast, until he heard a tiger's roar from up ahead.

The familiar sound startled Jun Yan. It was the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's roar, but compared to before, it sounded somewhat weak.

Could it be injured? Jun Yan immediately came to a conclusion. It must have been wounded by Bibi Dong's guardian.

As it turned out, after the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had been gravely wounded by the Spirit Hall elder, it had fled in a panic and ended up on the path Jun Yan was taking.

The possibility suddenly occurred to Jun Yan. Perhaps I won't have to wait ten years to take my revenge!

He headed in the direction of the roar.

He had not gone far when he heard two more tiger roars, along with several shrill barks.

After a few more steps, Jun Yan could finally see what was happening to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in the distance: three Azure Spirit Hounds were trying to gang up on it.

Perhaps because they saw that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was gravely injured, even mid-level Soul Beasts like the Azure Spirit Hounds dared to provoke it.

But although the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was in a sorry state, dealing with three dogs was still no difficult task.

Just as the Azure Spirit Hounds closed in, the enormous Evil God Hook behind it suddenly shot out, trailing a string of strange, distorted halos through the air before plunging into one hound's body. Then it flicked its tail, tossing the corpse to the ground.

Having lost a companion as soon as they attacked, the two Azure Spirit Hounds grew wary and dared not approach rashly.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger slowly rose to its feet, gray, evil energy radiating from its black body. Then it raised its head to the sky, opened its jaws wide and inhaled deeply. A ball of grayish-white light gathered in its mouth.

"Roar..." The Evil God Tiger lowered its head and spat. The grayish-white ball of light shot out at tremendous speed, striking an Azure Spirit Hound directly.

The breath carried an utterly vile and wicked energy. As soon as it struck the hound, it corroded a large hole in its body, yet not a single drop of blood flowed from the wound.

"Roar..." The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a roar of boundless might at the last Azure Spirit Hound.

Overwhelmed by its presence, the Azure Spirit Hound dared not attack again and could only slink away with its tail between its legs.

Seeing this, Jun Yan finally felt completely reassured.

It's nothing but a spent arrow at the end of its flight!

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had an exceedingly overbearing nature: it did not grow stronger by cultivating on its own. Cultivation was extremely difficult for it, and only by devouring the Soul Power of other Soul Beasts or human Soul Masters could it rapidly increase its strength. Correspondingly, devouring Soul Beasts could also help it quickly recover from its injuries.

No matter how feeble the Azure Spirit Hounds were, they were still Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. If the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had any strength to spare, it should have wiped them all out and devoured them to recover from its injuries.

What happened next was indeed just as Jun Yan had expected. After seeing the last Azure Spirit Hound flee, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's four legs finally gave way, and it fell onto its haunches.

Just as it turned its head to devour the Azure Spirit Hound's corpse beside it, a thick tree root suddenly burst from the ground. It extended and grew like a giant python, binding the corpse tightly. Then the root continued to grow, dragging the hound's corpse away from the tiger's jaws.

"Isn't this the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger? We haven't seen each other for a day, and you've gotten this lame?"

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man in white leaning against a large tree in the distance.

A look of confusion immediately appeared in its tiger eyes. If it remembered correctly, it should have killed this man yesterday. How was he standing perfectly well in front of it now?

Jun Yan straightened up and slowly walked toward the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. As he stepped forward, five Soul Rings slowly rose around him from bottom to top, in the perfect combination of yellow, yellow, purple, purple, and black.

The third, purple Soul Ring suddenly lit up. Four thorn-covered tree roots abruptly sprang from the ground beside the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and moved to bind it.

Third Soul Skill, Thornwood Wild Dance.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had fought a Titled Douluo earlier. Although it had escaped, it had also been gravely injured. Then it had used the last of its strength to kill two Azure Spirit Hounds. Now its oil was nearly spent and its lamp almost out; it could not even dodge Jun Yan's third Soul Skill.

The roots slowly tightened. One Wood Spike after another pierced the tiger's hide with some difficulty, and drops of blood seeped out continuously, staining the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's fur red.

Jun Yan knew that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had a trump-card divine skill. It could release a black hole through the Evil God Hook on its tail, sucking its opponent into another dimension for a duel to the death. It could also turn its opponent back into a child, while protecting itself from the skill's effects with a defensive ability.

Wary of the skill's power, he stood twenty meters away and released his Soul Skill from a distance.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a pitiful roar, but Jun Yan would not let his heart or his hand soften. Only after a long time did the tiger's roars finally stop abruptly.

"Is it dead?" Jun Yan muttered to himself as he walked forward.

Just as Jun Yan approached, the tiger's corpse on the ground suddenly opened its eyes.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger swung violently, and the shape of the hook at the tip of its tail immediately changed. Its originally curved body straightened in an instant, becoming like a long spike.

As the tail swung, a flash of black light appeared. Intense black light erupted immediately afterward, transforming into an enormous black hole three meters across.

As the black hole expanded, it also emitted an immensely powerful suction force, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was sucked in, unable to resist.

Seeing that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had not used a protective Soul Skill, Jun Yan did not resist either, allowing the suction to pull him in.

In the darkness, Jun Yan felt his entire body become unable to move. His Soul Power kept dropping, and his body was growing smaller. Suddenly, the surroundings brightened, and solid ground appeared beneath his feet.

Jun Yan arrived on an enormous arena. It appeared to be circular, yet stretched as far as the eye could see. There were no clouds, sun, or stars in the sky, only boundless darkness, and the light came from the arena itself.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was thirty meters in front of Jun Yan, also looking at him. Its tiger eyes were now filled with the light of anger and resentment.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger no longer had its former mighty appearance. Its body was only a little over a meter long, and not only were the wings on its back gone, but its tail had also become an ordinary tiger's tail. The Evil God Hook at its tip was pitifully small, with no energy fluctuations at all.

A strange voice rang out from all directions.

"Welcome to the Life and Death Arena. Only when one side dies can this battle to the death end and the survivor leave this space. Countdown: five, four, three, two, one, begin."
