“An Evil Spirit Master among Spirit Beasts?”
Hearing this, Long Aoyu instantly had a name pop up in his mind.
Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger!
Ordinary Soul Beasts absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth through bitter cultivation, but the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger was different.
It was an extremely rare and terrifying variant that possessed the bloodline of the Evil God, and its cultivation method was fundamentally different from that of ordinary Soul Beasts.
It was difficult for it to rely solely on its own cultivation.
Instead, it could devour the energy and power of other Soul Beasts or human Spirit Masters to continuously strengthen itself.
This was very similar to Evil Spirit Masters, with the only difference being that Evil Spirit Masters willingly chose the evil path, while the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger possessed this terrifying bloodline talent innately.
It was not a choice made later in life.
Du Busi narrowed his eyes slightly.
“About three li ahead, that aura…
Its hostility is heavy, extremely evil, and repulsive.”
He turned his head to look at Long Aoyu.
“Wait here.
I’ll go take a look.”
“Master, I’ll go too.”
Du Busi glanced at him, did not refuse, and said in a low voice, “Stay close and don’t make a sound.”
The master and disciple quietly crept forward, carefully concealing their auras as they passed through the dense vegetation.
After crossing a thick patch of bushes, a relatively open clearing appeared ahead in the forest.
Standing in the center of the clearing was a Soul Beast with a peculiar appearance.
Its body was about eight meters long, and the tip of its tail was about three meters long.
Its entire body was covered in black and white tiger stripes, while the tip of its tail was shaped like a scorpion hook.
Black wings grew from both sides of its body, its eyes were as red as blood, and its entire body was wreathed in a layer of sinister black mist.
Even from a distance, the terrifying aura radiating from its body made the surrounding vegetation seem to wither.
Du Busi stared at the Soul Beast for a few breaths, his pupils contracting slightly as he blurted out in a low voice, “Scorpion Tiger?
No…
This isn’t Zhang Peng’s Scorpion Tiger Martial Soul.
There is a difference.”
“It really is it!”
Long Aoyu stared closely at the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger, his eyes flashing with excitement.
Du Busi narrowed his eyes, sweeping his gaze back and forth over the Soul Beast several times, a hint of rare solemnity appearing in his tone.
“The Holy Ghost Cult has a powerhouse named Zhang Peng whose Martial Soul is a Scorpion Tiger, and its appearance is seven to eight tenths similar to this beast.
But Zhang Peng’s Scorpion Tiger is a subspecies whose bloodline has already degenerated.
This one…”
Du Busi paused before continuing, “This one is likely the bloodline source of the Scorpion Tiger, the true Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger!”
Having crossed hands with Zhang Peng in the future era before, Du Busi had specifically checked ancient texts because of the strange characteristics of the Scorpion Tiger Martial Soul.
Therefore, he knew of the existence of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger, and now that he had encountered the real thing, he recognized it almost immediately.
Du Busi turned back to look at Long Aoyu.
“The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger is rumored to possess the bloodline of an Evil God and simultaneously command several extremely powerful attributes, including Evil, Darkness, Space, Time, Strength, Lightning, and Wind.
It belongs to the absolute top tier among Soul Beasts.”
“Even powerful Soul Beasts such as the Titan Giant Ape and the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear would be inferior to it in terms of the terrifying potential of its bloodline!”
“Roar!!”
Its crimson eyes suddenly turned toward the direction of the bushes, and it lowered its body while letting out a low and threatening roar.
Du Busi looked at it, his gaze gradually brightening.
“Around 60,000 years old…
Xiaoyu, if you can absorb this beast’s Spirit Ring, it will be much stronger than absorbing an ordinary 60,000-year Soul Beast.”
“How about it?”
“Let’s go with it, Master!”
Long Aoyu’s full-body Body Martial Soul had extremely strong compatibility, allowing him to absorb Spirit Rings with almost any attribute.
The stronger the bloodline and quality of the Soul Beast, the greater the benefits he could obtain from its Spirit Ring.
For a monster like the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger, a 60,000-year cultivation level was not an accurate reflection of its actual combat power.
“Good, then it’s settled.”
Du Busi nodded and walked out from behind the bushes.
“Stay back.
I’ll make a move personally!”
The next moment, nine Spirit Rings instantly released around Du Busi.
Yellow, Yellow, Purple, Purple, Black, Black, Red, Red, Red!
The blood-colored light of three 100,000-year Spirit Rings spread out, causing the air in the entire forest to stagnate.
The terrifying pressure belonging to a level 98 Super Douluo erupted without reservation.
Body Martial Soul, Golden-grade Awakening!
Lines of green patterns appeared on Du Busi’s body, and his aura continuously climbed.
The terrifying poisonous power contained within his Body Martial Soul caused the surrounding vegetation to tremble slightly, while the oppressive force belonging to a Super Douluo spread in all directions.
“Roar!”
The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s crimson pupils shrank abruptly.
Its wings spread open, and black lightning and cyan whirlwinds erupted from the tips of its wings.
With its four claws kicking against the ground, it turned into an afterimage and lunged directly at Du Busi.
The attributes of wind and lightning fused together, causing its speed to become so terrifying that it was difficult for the naked eye to capture its movements.
But Du Busi was even faster!
He did not even move his feet.
He merely turned his body slightly and pushed a palm horizontally forward.
Dark green poisonous mist instantly condensed within his palm, and that hand blocked directly in the path of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s charge without the slightest deviation.
Palm and claw collided, and lightning burst forth.
Du Busi did not move an inch, but the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger was blasted backward.
Its right claw turned pitch-black, and the poisonous mist began corroding its fur and flesh at an alarming speed.
The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger landed heavily and let out a sharp howl, a silvery-white light flashing within its crimson eyes.
The air within a radius of ten zhang centered around it suddenly became viscous, and the falling leaves hanging in the air seemed to stagnate for a fraction of a moment.
The power of Time!
Du Busi’s movements instantly became sluggish.
“As expected of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger.
Although it only has 60,000 years of cultivation, its actual combat power is even stronger than that of the vast majority of 100,000-year Soul Beasts.”
Du Busi’s eyes flashed with surprise, but there was no fear in his expression.
“Pity, the gap in hard strength between you and me is simply too large!”
Du Busi let out a cold snort and stomped heavily on the ground with one foot.
Violent Spirit Power fluctuations instantly exploded from the soles of his feet, forcefully shattering the suppression created by the Time attribute.
A level 98 Super Douluo possessed combat strength comparable to the most terrifying 100,000-year Soul Beasts, and Du Busi’s own Body Martial Soul and poison abilities made him even more dangerous in close combat.
This kind of absolute difference in cultivation could not be completely made up for by attributes, bloodline, or special abilities.
“Rrip!”
The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger flapped its wings, sending out dense black lightning and green wind blades, while the scorpion hook at the tip of its tail quietly curved around from the side, aiming to pierce Du Busi’s lower back. This chapter was copied from novelping.com without permission.
The four attributes of Evil, Lightning, Wind, and Strength erupted simultaneously, while the strange power of Time continued interfering with Du Busi’s movements.
Coupled with the spatial fluctuations surrounding its body, the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s attack could be described as extremely strange and difficult to defend against.
But this set of combination attacks was completely meaningless in front of Du Busi.
“Eighth Spirit Ability, Hand of Heavenly Poison!”
Du Busi raised his right hand, spreading his five fingers as his 100,000-year eighth Spirit Ring bloomed with dazzling blood-colored light.
A dark green giant palm projection descended from the sky, carrying an overwhelming poisonous aura.
The dozens of lightning bolts and wind blades were instantly annihilated into nothingness upon colliding with the giant palm, unable to cause even the slightest obstruction.
“Bang!”
The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger only had time to swerve half of its body before the Hand of Heavenly Poison heavily slammed into its hind legs and waist-abdomen area.
Its enormous body was instantly sent flying dozens of zhang, heavily smashing through an ancient tree before rolling across the ground.
The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger struggled to stand up.
Its hind leg bones were fractured, and half of its body had already been corroded by the terrifying poisonous mist.
Its breathing became rough, and the evil aura around its body fluctuated violently.
“Roar!!”
It raised its head and let out a piercing roar.
A strange black sphere of light suddenly burst forth from within its body, rapidly expanding in all directions.
The surrounding space began to distort, and an ominous aura that made even Long Aoyu’s expression change spread outward.
Life-and-Death Arena!
Long Aoyu had long been waiting for this move.
His expression changed immediately as he reminded, “Master, be careful!”
Du Busi was originally about to blast forward with another palm, but upon hearing Long Aoyu’s warning, his figure abruptly stopped.
He instantly retreated violently, and the 100,000-year Spirit Bone on his left arm suddenly blazed brightly.
“Grip of Annihilation!”
A golden giant hand reached out across the air, its five fingers clutching toward the expanding black light sphere.
The moment the golden light and black sphere collided, the surrounding space distorted violently, and the terrifying force of annihilation erupted between them.
The black light sphere was forcefully crushed!
The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s strongest skill was forcibly interrupted.
It let out a miserable screech as black and red blood overflowed from its mouth, while its already weakened aura rapidly withered.
“What a bizarre Spirit Ability.
This Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger truly lives up to its reputation as an Evil God variant!”
Du Busi’s tone carried a hint of amazement.
If Long Aoyu had not reminded him just now, he really might have fallen for the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s trick.
Although Du Busi did not know the exact effects of the Life-and-Death Arena, he could clearly sense the terrifying Time and Space attributes contained within it.
Time and Space, these two major attributes fused into a single Spirit Ability.
Goodness knew what would have happened if he had been trapped inside!
“Master, add a few more moves and beat it to death.”
“Good.”
Du Busi nodded and flashed to the vicinity of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger.
He raised his hand, gathering his Spirit Power and potent poison into his palm before heavily slamming it down toward the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s head.
This strike contained his natal potent poison.
The already heavily injured Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger did not even have a trace of resistance left at this moment.
Faced with the overwhelming strength of a level 98 Super Douluo, its terrifying bloodline and strange abilities could no longer reverse the situation.
