Ling Yun, brimming with confidence, sensed five auras of Soul Beasts, all quite powerful, closing in on him with hostile intent.
As the saying goes, those who come aren't good, and those who are good don't come. These five Soul Beasts were clearly targeting him.
Ling Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, a dangerous glint flashing in his cold, tiger-like gaze.
Instead of properly dealing with the three Title Douluos, these fellows were coming to cause him trouble.
It seemed he wouldn't be able to eliminate Golden Crocodile Douluo for the time being.
Since these Soul Beasts, relying on their numbers, wanted to make trouble for him, he couldn't be blamed for not playing fair.
It just so happened that he also needed to devour enough Soul Beasts right now.
This would allow his strength to increase to the point where, even without the aid of the Life and Death Arena, he could contend with, and even kill, Golden Crocodile Douluo.
To protect Xiao Wu and the safety of Da Ming and his brother, as well as to allow the Beast Alliance to flourish, Ling Yun intended to do more than just kill Golden Crocodile Douluo in the most brutal way possible this time.
He also planned to raise his strength to a level that even Qian Daoliu would fear.
From then on, he wanted everyone, including the Martial Soul Hall, the Star Luo Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire, and the upper three sects, to know this:
With the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's protection, the entire Star Dou Great Forest was a forbidden zone for humans.
He might not care about other forests, but at least when it came to the Star Dou Great Forest…
…it would definitely not be a place where humans could come and go as they pleased anymore!
Only when Xiao Wu, Da Ming and his brother, and the Beast Alliance were safe, would he be able to venture into the human world with peace of mind.
The Soul Beast world, while fascinating, wasn't the path for a true Douluo fan.
The real adventure lay in the exciting human world.
Checking out Shrek Academy, brawling in the Soto City Arena, and flirting with the ladies at Skywater Academy – these were the ideals.
Of course, transforming into a harmless Heavenly Snow Weasel and staying by Qian Renxue's side was the ultimate dream.
To achieve this "noble ideal," Ling Yun wouldn't show any mercy to those who stood in his way.
He sensed five auras getting closer.
Quickly, Ling Yun concealed his own aura and slipped into the dense forest.
In the abundant primal forest, Ling Yun held his breath, watching as the five Soul Beasts arrived at his previous location.
Now, even though it was midnight, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's excellent night vision allowed Ling Yun to easily see the identities of his opponents.
There were five Soul Beasts present, with the weakest at a seventy-thousand-year level and the strongest reaching a ninety-four-thousand-year level.
Ling Yun had dealt with three of them before.
But by "dealt with," he really meant that he had led Ghost and Chrysanthemum Douluo to thoroughly beat them up.
If it weren't for their good fortune, and if Ghost and Chrysanthemum Douluo hadn't realized they were being used... they probably would have already met the King of Hell.
He hadn't heard of the other two in the original story, nor had he seen them in the Star Dou Great Forest.
However, this wasn't surprising. The Star Dou Great Forest was vast and had a long history.
No matter what Soul Beast appeared, Ling Yun thought it was normal.
From the strongest unfamiliar Soul Beast, Ling Yun simultaneously sensed the aura of both the dragon and tiger bloodlines.
This made Ling Yun suspect whether this Soul Beast was the product of a mixed bloodline from both races.
And its Dragon-headed Tiger-bodied appearance also confirmed this point.
Whether it was the dragon or tiger race, both were considered to be not weak existences in the Soul Beast world.
Combining the advantages of both, the product that was born shouldn't be weak in strength.
So, considering the principle of "picking the soft persimmons to pinch," Ling Yun definitely wouldn't choose it as his first target.
Otherwise, if he failed in the first strike, he would most likely be held back by it.
At that point, the other four Soul Beasts would surround him, putting him in a passive position.
Just as Ling Yun was planning how to deal with these five Soul Beasts...
That Dragon-headed Tiger-bodied Soul Beast lowered its head to the ground, sniffing the earth.
After a moment, its eyes fixed on where Ling Yun was hiding, and it roared at the other four Soul Beasts.
The four Soul Beasts immediately scattered and charged towards Ling Yun.
He'd been discovered!
Ling Yun's heart skipped a beat. He seemed to have forgotten something very important.
The targets he was facing now were five Soul Beasts with a sense of smell just as keen as his.
Trying to use the same tactics against Soul Beasts as against humans clearly wouldn't work.
Ling Yun didn't hesitate for a moment, immediately taking to the air. With lightning speed, he instantly soared a thousand meters into the sky.
All five Soul Beasts, including the Dragon-headed Tiger-bodied one, were land-bound creatures, inherently unable to fly.
By seizing the advantage of aerial dominance, he didn't need to fear being surrounded.
As for other flying Soul Beasts, Ling Yun had yet to encounter any stronger than himself.
The five Soul Beasts watched as Ling Yun spread his wings and took flight.
But they were utterly helpless against him, only able to bare their fangs below.
Occasionally, they would unleash some ranged Soul Skills, but the attack range of these was limited.
For example, Ling Yun's Multiple Netherwave was a ranged soul skill with a range exceeding 500 meters.
He'd even used it to toy with Qian Jun, Demon Subduing, and Pan Long, the three Title Douluos, from a distance of six or seven hundred meters.
However, when the target distance reached around a kilometer, even Ling Yun's Multiple Netherwave would lose its effectiveness.
If the skills granted by the golden list were like this, could these Soul Beasts' innate skills surpass those of the golden list?
Ling Yun looked down at them from above, as if gazing at a group of fools.
These guys wanted to kill him?
He felt this was perhaps the most accurate portrayal of a toad wanting to eat swan meat.
But could a toad actually eat swan meat? It wasn't that Ling Yun looked down on them.
Unless he delivered himself to them, these guys wouldn't even get close to him.
In modern warfare from his previous life, it was abundantly clear that whoever controlled the airspace held the decisive advantage.
Ling Yun turned his gaze towards the three Title Douluo, who were surrounded by Soul Beasts.
He observed them desperately trying to break through the Soul Beasts' defenses.
They had already expended a significant amount of Soul Power dealing with the earlier waves of lower-level Soul Beasts, while the higher-level ones had been resting and waiting.
This put the three Title Douluo at a disadvantage in the fight, especially Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo, who were already injured.
Golden Crocodile Douluo, as expected of a terrifying level 98 powerhouse, was holding his own.
He alone was managing to withstand the Soul Beasts' furious attacks.
Thanks to him, the other two were able to survive for the time being.
But human strength is limited. As long as they couldn't escape the Soul Beasts' siege, Ling Yun didn't think this old guy was a god of war.
Seeing they couldn't get away for the moment, Ling Yun could focus on dealing with the Soul Beasts below.
Once he devoured the five Soul Beasts below, his strength should break through to the 100,000-year level.
By then, that annoying Golden Crocodile Douluo would be going home.
A cold glint flashed in Ling Yun's eyes, his killing intent fierce…
