After adjusting her state, Dugu Yan began to absorb by harnessing her soul power to guide her soul rings.
An hour later, Dugu Yan woke up, her pale green fur turning back to black, giving her a refreshed and spirited appearance.
"My fourth soul skill is indeed an auxiliary cultivation technique. It can condense the toxins of my martial soul into a dan bead, stored about three inches below my navel. It also establishes a soul power circulation route similar to that of the parasitic snakes of Pearl Snake Grass. During meditation, it greatly enhances my ability to refine the energy of heaven and earth."
However, what surprised Duguyan even more was that this Pearl Snake Grass soul ring actually cured the ancestral martial soul poison of her family and turned the poison into her aid.
Unfortunately, Grandpa...
Perhaps Tang San also has a way to cure her grandfather. After all, Tang San has extensive research on martial souls.
"Yanyan, congratulations."
Yu tianheng didn't know about Dugu Yan's family's hereditary poison, but he was pleased to hear that her cultivation speed had increased due to this soul ring.
For someone like him, born into a prestigious family, one or two attack soul skills meant little. Strengthening the attributes of the martial soul itself and quickly breaking through to higher realms were the true paths to power.
"I'm also at level forty-one now, and with the accelerated cultivation, I might even reach Soul King before you in the future." Dugu Yan realized that the pill beads created by her fourth soul skill, combined with the synergy between her martial soul toxin and soul power, also strengthened her martial soul. Over time, her Serpent Empress might even evolve into the Serpent Emperor.
"I won't admit defeat." Yu Tianheng laughed heartily, but inwardly, he resolved to train even harder. Otherwise, if his girlfriend surpassed him, others might say that he, Yu Tianheng, was living off her.
Next was helping Zhu Zhuqing find a suitable soul beast.
Half an hour later, they discovered traces of the Dark Night Spirit.
"Lucky find, this is a Dark Night Spirit of about four thousand years... Zhuqing, can you handle it?" Tang San estimated the age of the firefly-like Dark Night Star Spirit and asked Zhu Zhuqing.
"I can. I've taken whale glue before, and my second soul ring is around nine hundred years. With my third soul ring, I estimate I can handle five thousand years." Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat disdainful of the relatively short lifespan of this Dark Night Star Spirit, but she didn't intend to be picky.
Four thousand years wasn't bad either.
However, just as Qin Ming was about to capture the Dark Night Star Spirit with black luminous organs underneath it, a three-meter-long black giant tiger pounced on the Dark Night Star Spirit, biting it and devouring it in one gulp, as if it didn't even regard Qin Ming, a Soul Emperor, as a threat.
With a black body, purple markings, black wings on its back, and a scorpion-like tail.
This is—
"The Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger!"
Tang San exclaimed, catching the attention of the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger, which was busy devouring the Dark Night Star Spirit. However, it didn't move immediately, still leisurely consuming its prey, but there was a hint of mockery in its eyes as it looked at Tang San and the others.
"The Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger? What kind of soul beast is that? Is it also a dark attribute soul beast?" Zhu Zhuqing's focus was different from the others. "It's a tiger, so wouldn't it be more suitable for my Shadow Panther?"
"Indeed, in terms of suitability, this Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger is even more suitable than the soul beasts I mentioned before." Tang San's eyes flickered. "But, we might not be able to hunt it."
Qin Ming was puzzled. "Why can't we hunt it? This tiger only seems to have a cultivation of about three thousand years, right?"
"Yes, judging by its size, it probably only has about three thousand years of cultivation, but I suspect its age may be less than three years." Tang San explained to everyone, "The Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger, according to legend, is a super soul beast descended by evil gods, with attributes of evil, darkness, thunder, wind, space, and even time. It's a kind of super soul beast."
"There's little related records, but one thing is certain: this kind of soul beast is even more powerful than the Titan Giant Ape."
"A hundred-year-old Titan Giant Ape can contend with ordinary millennium soul beasts, but a hundred-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger can crush a hundred-year-old Titan Giant Ape!"
"Let alone, with its cultivation of three thousand years, I estimate it can escape from the pursuit of hundred-thousand-year soul beasts."
A hundred years can rival a thousand years, and a thousand years can escape from under hundred-thousand-year soul beasts.
What kind of super soul beast is this?
Now, Qin Ming realized the seriousness of the problem, cold sweat oozing from his forehead. "No wonder it dares to eat prey in front of us. It doesn't care about me, a Soul Emperor."
"We should retreat." Tang San said.
However, just as everyone was about to retreat, the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger stopped devouring, emitting a powerful aura, roaring as if it regarded them all as prey.
"It seems it's already treating us as prey." Tang San released his martial soul and soul rings— one yellow, two purple, and one black. This shocked Zhu Zhuqing, who saw Tang San's soul rings combined for the first time, but now wasn't the time to admire his excellence.
If they didn't deal with the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger in front of them, they would all die.
"Does this soul beast have any weaknesses?" Qin Ming asked.
"Tigers have weaknesses, and so does it." Tang San was extremely nervous. "But I suggest, if possible, to cut off its tail, that scorpion-like tail."
Although it's unknown if a three-thousand-year-level Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger has the ability to open the life and death arena, caution has always been passed down for thousands of years. If there's a chance, they must destroy its key to opening the life and death arena.
"Its tail?" Qin Ming nodded and rushed forward, wanting to see how strong this Dark Devil Evil Spirit Tiger really was.
Tang San immediately used his Endless Growth Field. Countless Blue Silver Emperors emerged, providing cover for everyone present while entangling the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger.
Then, he displayed his second soul skill, Positive and Negative Buffs, putting golden sun positive buffs on his teammates and silver moon negative buffs on the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger.
Sensing that all attributes were amplified by more than forty percent, everyone was shocked but also understood why Tang San called himself a support type.
In terms of the effect of soul skills, Tang San really was a support type!
Lan Yinzi also released his Blue Silver Emperor, cooperating with Tang San's Endless Growth Field, and used his first soul skill: Blue Silver Seeds, as well as his second soul skill: Blue Silver Net.
The entanglement ability of the Blue Silver Net was stronger than when Tang San directly controlled the Blue Silver Emperor to entangle. With both working together, the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger, caught off guard, found itself momentarily unable to break free.
"Fifth Soul Skill: Roaring Flame Rupture!"
With the Blazing Wolf's possession, Qin Ming used his fifth soul skill, appearing in front of the temporarily restrained Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger. His right claw wrapped in black flames struck toward its head.
Boom!
Instantly, a deafening roar erupted, and the Blue Silver Emperors at the explosion point shattered one after another. Qin Ming's figure flew backward, his right hand trembling slightly, incredulously staring at the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger.
His fifth soul skill had only left five shallow wounds on the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger's face?
It should be noted that a hit like that on an ordinary ten-thousand-year-old soul beast would either kill it or leave it severely wounded, unable to get up again.
Yet, this Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger only suffered surface wounds?
"Roar!"
The Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger roared angrily, pouncing toward Qin Ming. Its speed was so fast that even he, a Soul Emperor, could barely react in time.
"Blue Silver cutting Formation!"
With Tang San's command, the Blue Silver Emperors formed a killing formation. Each Blue Silver Emperor emitted sharp blades of light, slashing toward the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger's body.
Although the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger was powerful, it couldn't withstand the combined assault of so many Blue Silver Emperors. It roared in pain as it was struck by numerous sharp blades, but it still charged forward, seemingly unaffected by the injuries.
"Ninefold Asura Shadow!"
Zhu Zhuqing, seizing the opportunity, activated her soul skill, turning into multiple illusory shadows that flitted around the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger, launching attacks from different angles.
"Blue Silver Sharpness!"
Lai Yinzi's Blue Silver Emperor released countless thin, sharp threads that shot toward the Spirit Tiger like arrows, aiming to pierce its defenses.
Despite the relentless barrage of attacks, the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger continued its onslaught, seemingly unstoppable.
"It's useless! We can't defeat it head-on!" Tang San shouted, realizing that their attacks were ineffective against the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger's tough defenses.
"What should we do?" Qin Ming asked urgently, his face pale with apprehension.
"We need to find its weakness! Keep attacking and observe carefully!" Tang San commanded, his mind racing as he tried to devise a plan to defeat the formidable opponent.
With determination in their hearts, they continued to battle against the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger, searching for any sign of weakness that could give them an edge in the fight.
Blue Silver Emperor immediately used his third soul skill, and countless Blue Silver Emperors sprouted out like sharp swords, continuously stabbing towards the Dark Devil Evil Spirit Tiger.
Tang San raised his hand and waved it. The destroyed Blue Silver Emperors grew back again, grabbing onto the Dark Devil Evil Spirit Tiger's hind legs. "Attack its rear."
"No problem!" Blue Silver Emperor's eyes lit up, manipulating the Blue Silver Slicing Formation to stab at the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger's anus and reproductive organs.
"Roar~"
A miserable roar resounded.
Although it was a super-level soul beast, certain parts were not indestructible.
However, its tail, the Devil's Hook, was indeed extremely tough. Blue Silver Emperor's third soul skill, the Blue Silver Slicing Formation, couldn't even cut through it.
"Huo Wu!" Tang San took this opportunity to shout at Huo Wu.
"I'm ready!" Huo Wu, in her Fire Goddess Armor, had already integrated with the Sun Goddess, gathering the third soul skill: Fiery Sunburst in her hands.
Within that golden-red halo, a burst of light and flame erupted towards the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger, its formidable destructive power causing all the Blue Silver Emperors along the way to be obliterated.
Faced with this attack, the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger's pupils contracted.
It sensed the threat.
So, it raised its Devil's Hook, gathering a clump of black thunder on it, and clashed it against the pillar of light emitted by Huo Wu.
Boom!
Instantly, light clashed with darkness, flames clashed with thunder, and a huge energy formed a ball with a diameter exceeding twenty meters, continuously destroying everything around it.
"Scatter!" Tang San shouted loudly, using Blue Silver Emperors to pull everyone, including Huo Wu who had just used her third soul skill, quickly away.
Hum—
Those two colliding energy masses finally exploded, destroying the surrounding fifty-meter radius forest area, with a huge mushroom cloud rising into the sky, displaying the power of the explosion just now.
If they had stayed at the center, none of them would have survived.
"Shouldn't that Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger be dead?" Yu Tianheng shouted towards Tang San. "I've never seen such an outrageous soul beast before. Just a thousand years, and it can unleash such powerful energy attacks."
"This is my first time seeing it too," Tang San replied.
"Roar!"
In a flash, a strong wind rose, and the high mushroom cloud dispersed, revealing the figure of the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger again in everyone's sight.
Compared to before, the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger looked much more miserable now. Apart from its wings and the Devil's Hook, its fur had been charred, emitting strands of hot air.
However, everyone present dared not underestimate this battered tiger.
Sizzle!
Black lightning flickered around the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger's body, striking towards Tang San and the others.
"Defend!" Tang San raised both hands, and countless Blue Silver Emperors rose, turning into shields to protect everyone. Blue Silver Emperor also used his second soul skill, forming the Blue Silver Web, covering Tang San's shield, jointly resisting the power of the black lightning.
However, those thunders seemed to be just for show. When they struck the Blue Silver Emperors, they only caused slight scorch marks.
"Could it be that the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger has no more strength?" Huo Wu speculated.
"It feels a bit off..." Tang San's voice had just fallen when he suddenly felt a strong suction force, breaking through the Blue Silver Emperor's blockade and pulling everyone towards a black hole.
"What's that?" Qin Ming looked at the black hole in the sky, shivering with fear.
Arena of Death!
Tang San's heart sank, noticing the gray light flashing on the Devil's Hook of the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger, and its body was covered with a gray light film.
In the original work, both the protagonist and the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger entered the Arena of Death together, reverting to their childhood, but that was because the gray aura on the Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger's body was shattered by the Purple God Light.
Otherwise, the protagonist would have to face the ten-thousand-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger at the age of six! That arena was inherently unfair!
And now, Tang San didn't have any Purple God Light. Even if everyone entered together this time, they would all revert to the strength of a six-year-old, without the power of soul rings. How could they, in this state, be a match for the three-thousand-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger, even if it was heavily injured?
Just as Tang San was thinking of a solution, the suction force from the black hole in the sky suddenly increased, tearing apart the Blue Silver Emperors pulling everyone and pulling them in. The Dark Demon Evil God Spirit Tiger also leaped into it voluntarily...
