The Dark Devilgod Tiger was smart.
As soon as it let out its roar, it realized something was terribly wrong.
It activated a soul skill that concealed its presence, vanishing completely from Tang Lan's perception.
Even the Blue Silver Life Domain couldn't lock onto its existence.
However—
Although the Blue Silver Grass covering the forest couldn't "see" it,
They could still feel something stepping on them and getting crushed.
Normally, Tang Lan wouldn't have paid much attention to this kind of feedback.
After all, there were too many stealth-type soul beasts.
But right now—
Tang Lan summoned his Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor, lighting up his sixth soul ring.
A blood-red glow flashed.
A hundred-meter-tallLife Soul Blue Silver Emperor erupted from the ground a thousand meters away!
Sixth Soul Skill—Ancient Tree of Life!
At its peak—
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was struggling among the thick branches and leaves, its razor-sharp claws coated in black light, slowly tearing apart the restraints.
Ordinary 60,000-year soul beasts couldn't have broken free so easily.
This alone showed how powerful it was.
But unfortunately—
It was still too slow.
Tang Lan, Tang Hao, Da Ming, and Er Ming closed in from four directions.
Even though the Dark Devilgod Tiger had wings, there was nowhere left to run.
"Rustle—"
The Ancient Tree of Life shook, releasing a massive cloud of pollen.
It covered a 600-meter radius,
draining soul power, life force, and spiritual energy from everything within.
Sixth Soul Skill—Life Forbidden Zone!
Then—
Blue Silver Life Domain!Soul Spirit Domain!Slaughter God Domain!Slowing Domain!Gravity Domain!
Two humans and two beasts, five domains in total—
Draining, suppressing, slowing, increasing gravity.
The Dark Devilgod Tiger unleashed its own domain, waves of distorted gray energy spiraling around it.
But it could barely extend half a meter out.
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was numb with shock!
What the hell was this monster lineup?!
It was just a small 60,000-year-old soul beast, did it really deserve this?!
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was extremely intelligent.
It knew that the moment it made a move, it would get instantly obliterated.
So, it crouched down, its eyes scanning warily, looking for a chance to break free.
It locked onto Tang Lan, the one with the lowest soul power level.
"ROAR—"
Dozens of black-and-red energy blades shot out!
They carried the sharp cutting force of wind and the corrosive evil power of darkness.
The attack was incredibly powerful.
Unfortunately—
"You picked the wrong target."
"In the Life Forbidden Zone, no one can defeat me."
Tang Lan willed it.
His first soul skill instantly activated—
Countless Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor vinesrose up, weaving into a massive wall.
The blades cut several meters deep,
their corrosive force eating away another few meters—
But they still didn't reach halfway through the wall.
The charging Dark Devilgod Tigerfroze in shock!
How was this six-ring Soul Emperor's soul skill so ridiculously powerful?!
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
The wall exploded, sending out a barrage of sharp spikes.
Forced to retreat, the Dark Devilgod Tiger immediately gave up on Tang Lan.
It turned toward Tang Hao.
Hmm…
This human's aura—
was the same one that unleashed that sky-shattering attack earlier?
—What it didn't know was that Tang Hao couldn't even use soul skills right now, let alone detonate his rings.
So, the Dark Devilgod Tiger turned again—
And charged straight at Er Ming!
This made Er Ming furious.
Did this damn tiger just underestimate him?!
On the spot, Er Ming lost it!
He manipulated gravity, compressing the air into a concentrated energy force.
A massive beam of light condensed around his right fist—
And he punched forward at full power!
Titan Sky Cannon!!!
Starting with a big move—now what?!
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was definitely scared.
It had to activate its strongest defense—Evil God's Protection!
Using the shockwave from Titan Sky Cannon, it rebounded and crashed toward Da Ming.
Da Ming smirked.
As the older brother, how could he be weaker than his younger brother?
A green lightning sphere formed at the tip of his horns—
Transforming into a soaring Azure Dragon of thunder and lightning,
Shooting straight toward the Dark Devilgod Tiger!
Azure Sky Annihilation Divine Thunder!
The Titan Sky Cannon from Er Ming clashed with the Azure Sky Annihilation Divine Thunder from Da Ming,
Trapping the Dark Devilgod Tiger in between—grinding it down mercilessly!
The gray barrier of Evil God's Protection began to crack—
Until finally…
"CRACK—"
It shattered.
But the combined energy of both powerful attacks was also exhausted.
The Dark Devilgod Tiger only took some of the residual shockwaves, but it was still blasted down, crashing into the ground and leaving a crater more than ten meters deep.
Tang Lan, Tang Hao, Da Ming, and Er Ming stood at the four edges of the pit, towering over the Dark Devilgod Tiger.
It felt a wave of despair.
What the hell?!
It had just been feeling suppressed and let out a roar to vent its frustration.
How did that attract these four monsters?!
Then, a cold glint flickered in its eyes.
If it couldn't escape—
Then even in death, it would drag someone down with it!
Its Evil God Hook twitched behind it, its eyes scanning for the first target.
Tang Lan immediately saw through its intentions.
He smiled.
"You're planning to use your Evil God Hook to activate the Life-and-Death Arena, right?"
Dark Devilgod Tiger: "…"
What the hell?! How does he know everything?!
Faced with an opponent that knew its abilities inside and out, the Dark Devilgod Tiger made a desperate pounce, aiming to take Tang Lan down with it!
Tang Lan's Sea God's Pupilsflashed.
A phantom appeared behind him, raising a golden trident.
A vast surge of blue-purple waves erupted like a tsunami, slamming the Dark Devilgod Tiger back into the crater.
Oceanic Roar!
Both its body and soul were heavily impacted.
It struggled for a few moments before finally managing to stand up, panting heavily.
Its gaze locked onto Tang Lan—with a trace of fear.
That phantom just now…
It carried the aura of a god!
Who the hell is this guy?!
A Tempting Offer
Tang Lan saw that the timing was just right.
As always—
He revealed his Life Mark.
"I am the inheritor of the God of Destiny. Once I reach Level 99, I will become a First-Class God."
"That tiny bit of corrupted Evil God power in you? It won't work on me."
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was highly intelligent.
But it knew nothing about the God of Destiny or the Evil God.
All it understood was—
This human is a god's successor!
And anyone connected to gods… was never easy to deal with!
Da Ming and Er Ming were already long-time rulers of the Star Dou Forest.
It definitely couldn't win against them.
As for Tang Hao…
Just thinking about that terrifying hammer strike earlier made its liver tremble.
If time could rewind,
It would slap itself in the face for being so arrogant and roaring out loud.
Now look—cornered and trapped.
A Second Chance?
The Dark Devilgod Tigerfocused on Tang Lan again.
The other human was a Titled Douluo—he didn't need any more soul rings.
Which meant…
This little bastard is the one trying to hunt me?!
"Don't look at me like that." Tang Lan spread his hands. "I don't want to kill you either—as long as you cooperate."
He tossed out a spiritual energy sphere.
The Dark Devilgod Tiger hesitated for a moment, then raised a paw and absorbed it—
It had no other choice.
Inside the sphere were two key pieces of information:
The Soul Spirit Equal Contract—a necessary condition for peace between humans and soul beasts.The Slaughter City—!!!
A lawless paradise of slaughter, devouring, and chaos, where no one would stop it.
A gleam of excitement flickered in the Dark Devilgod Tiger's eyes.
This place was perfect for it!
At the same time—
It finally understood what Tang Lan wanted.
He was saying—
"I can take you to the Slaughter City."
Tang Lan tempted it further:
"You can devour to your heart's content there."
"Once you evolve into a 100,000-year soul beast, you can become my Soul Spirit."
"And when I ascend to godhood, you will follow me into the Divine Realm… and gain eternal life."
"What do you say?"
