Douluo Continent: The Evil Tiger Subdues the Eight Desolations, and Marries Zhu Zhuqing

Morning light filters through the canopy of the sunset forest, casting dappled shadows on the ground.

Lin Ye stepped on the fallen leaves, his pace neither hurried nor slow.

At this moment, his mental energy was fully deployed, and he had complete control over all movements within a 500-meter radius.

"Level 30, two thousand-year soul rings, and mental strength comparable to a Soul King."

Lin Ye walked along, making plans in his mind.

"With my current physical strength and mental power, ordinary thousand-year-old soul beasts can no longer satisfy me."

"The third spirit ring will take at least eight thousand years."

"If you're lucky enough to encounter one that's ten thousand years old..."

He clenched his fist.

"That would be even better."

It's important to know that absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring from a higher level carries two risks: physical limitations and soul shock!

Normally, a Soul Master needs to reach at least level 50, the Soul King stage, before they can absorb a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring.

Because their physical and mental abilities had already reached the required level, the risk of absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring had been greatly reduced.

However, if an ordinary Soul Master wants to absorb a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring beyond their level...

This is a complete fantasy in the entire Douluo Continent.

But Lin Ye is not an ordinary Soul Master.

The Qirong Tongtianju reshaped the foundation of his physical body.

Longing for the autumn dew has elevated his spiritual power to the Soul King level.

In addition, the Dark Demon God Tiger itself possesses a powerful physique.

What's more, it also has two thousand-year soul rings!

So it is said that,

Level 30 soul power, plus a Soul King-level body and mental strength.

With this trump card laid out, the two fatal risks of absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring are both within a controllable range.

"A ten-thousand-year spirit ring? That's a piece of cake."

Lin Ye's lips curled up slightly.

at this time,

Suddenly, Lin Ye's mental energy detected a surge of soul energy rapidly approaching from eighty meters to his left.

boom!

A large tree, as thick as a person's embrace, was snapped in two by the impact, sending pieces of wood flying everywhere.

A giant bear, its entire body covered in grayish-white rock armor, burst out of the bushes. Its eyes were bloodshot, and its limbs were as thick as iron pillars.

Each step caused the ground to tremble slightly.

It was indeed a stone-armored bear.

Lin Ye glanced at it and instantly assessed it with his mental strength.

"His cultivation level... is only a little over three thousand years."

His brows furrowed slightly.

Three thousand years?

That's it?

Lin Ye turned around and wanted to leave.

"The time limit is too short; there's no need to waste time."

However, when Lin Ye turned around, the stone-armored bear not only did not back down, but instead let out a furious roar.

With a powerful kick of its limbs, its massive body slammed into Lin Ye like an out-of-control chariot.

boom!

Lin Ye dodged to the side, and the stone-armored bear's charge grazed past his clothes, smashing two trees behind him to pieces.

"I don't even want to talk to you anymore, yet you keep chasing after me and biting me?"

The stone-armored bear turned around, its eyes bloodshot, and charged again.

Lin Ye leaped to the left, and the bear chased after him to the left.

Lin Ye ran to the right, and it chased after him to the right.

three times.

I chased him three times in total.

Lin Ye's face turned completely dark.

"You have a path to heaven but choose not to take it, and you insist on barging into hell when there's no way out, huh?"

He stopped and turned to face the stone-armored bear that was charging at him.

"OK."

"Since you're in such a hurry to die, then I, Lin Ye, will send you on your way!"

"Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, possess me!"

hum!

A surge of black, malevolent energy, accompanied by purple lightning, erupted from Lin Ye's body, accompanied by howling and exploding winds around him.

Two purple millennium soul rings lit up from beneath his feet, and an evil aura swept across the sky.

The stone-armored bear's charge came to an abrupt halt.

My limbs suddenly felt stiff.

A hint of fear appeared in those crimson eyes.

The stone-armored bear gradually began to regret its actions.

But it was too late.

"First Soul Skill, Thirteen Slashes of the Evil God!"

Lin Ye's right hand swiftly slashed out in a claw-like motion.

This was the first time he had used this soul skill in actual combat after his first soul ring evolved into a thousand-year quality.

The first strike landed.

Bang!

Suddenly, a spiderweb-like crack appeared on the stone-armored bear's prized gray-white rock armor.

The second one.

Click!

The rock armor shattered, and stone fragments flew everywhere.

The third way.

The stone bear's chest armor shattered completely, revealing the flesh beneath.

"The Thirteen Slashes of the Evil God, which had a hundred-year soul ring, took a lot of effort to break through the rock armor of the Xuan Rock Giant Rhinoceros."

"Now, a thousand years of quality..."

Before the fourth strike could land, the stone-armored bear was already blasted away by the residual force of the first three blows, crashing through four trees and tumbling into a boulder.

It struggled to get up, but its limbs were trembling.

"The first soul skill is now more than twice as strong as it used to be!"

Lin Ye then withdrew his tiger claws, his gaze indifferent.

"What a pity, big bear, you were just a tool to test my first soul skill."

"Devour".

hum.

A fist-sized black vortex formed in Lin Ye's palm, its suction precisely locking onto the dying stone-armored bear.

It only took three seconds.

The stone-armored bear's body turned into wisps of grayish-white light and was completely swallowed up by the black hole.

at the same time,

A surge of heat coursed through Lin Ye's body before being absorbed.

Lin Ye took a look.

"My body has become a bit stronger, but the improvement isn't as great as it was with those wolf bandits before."

"As expected, a three-thousand-year-old soul beast is no longer enough for me."

He then raised his head and looked into the depths of the Sunset Forest.

at this time,

Boom!

A deep, muffled thud came from the northeast, and the ground trembled slightly.

Immediately afterwards, a second and a third sound followed.

Along with the resounding boom, there were two distinctly different roars.

A deep, resonant sound, like thunder rolling across the earth.

Another sharp, piercing sound, accompanied by a metallic scraping noise.

Lin Ye's mental energy instantly spread out in that direction.

500 meters.

At the edge of his perception range, two enormous auras were colliding violently.

"These are... two ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts?"

Lin Ye's pupils suddenly contracted.

"And...it seems like they're sparring?"

Without hesitation, he immediately lowered his breath and moved in that direction.

Three minutes later.

Lin Ye crouched on a thick horizontal branch of a giant tree, using the dense foliage to conceal his figure, and looked down at the battlefield below.

The scene before him made him gasp.

A woodland area with a radius of 100 meters has been reduced to ruins.

The trees were all fallen, and the ground was covered with deep trenches and claw marks.

On the left side of the battlefield, a giant tiger covered in dark gold scales was opening its blood-red maw.

Its size was more than three times that of an ordinary tiger-type spirit beast, and its limbs were as thick as pillars.

With each step, the rocks beneath your feet crack under the pressure.

It turned out to be a Black-Armored Tiger with a split-earth design.

As his mental energy swept over the area, Lin Ye was startled.

"It's still a 15,000-year-old Earth-Splitting Black-Armored Tiger!"

On the right side of the battlefield, a slightly smaller but strangely shaped soul beast is retreating.

It has eight segmented limbs, a deep purple body, and its head is the most terrifying part.

That face was strikingly similar to a human face, with distorted features and an indescribable eeriness.

It was indeed the Human-Faced Demon Spider.

"His cultivation level has reached twelve thousand years."

Both of the ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts were now covered in wounds.

The Earth-Splitting Black-Armored Tiger had a deep wound on its left foreleg, exposing the bone. Its dark golden scales were torn apart, and blood was constantly seeping out.

Its abdomen also had several bloody holes pierced by spider limbs.

But the situation of the human-faced spider is even worse.

Three of its eight limbs were broken, its purple carapace was shattered in large areas, one eye had been blinded, and bodily fluids mixed with some kind of dark green viscous liquid were constantly dripping down.

Lin Ye leaned against the tree trunk, arms crossed over his chest.
