Chapter 68: Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger
The tiger's roar struck the soul directly, and the surrounding soul beasts seemed to sense the terrifying presence, fleeing one after another.
Su Yun Tian and Wang Qiuer exchanged a glance, a weighty seriousness flashing in their eyes.
In barely a few breaths, a Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger over five meters tall, its body covered in black fur, leapt out.
Unlike tiger-type soul beasts, its back is covered with sharp spines, each like a blade, flashing with a cold gleam.
Above its forepaws protrude two black long swords pointing backward, with a concave center.
"Sabre-toothed tiger?" Su Yun Tian blinked.
The Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger gave the two no time to linger; like a gust of wind, a black shadow flashed and appeared before Su Yun Tian, raising its massive forepaw to strike.
Its speed was indeed swift; Su Yun Tian could only hurriedly retreat, barely evading.
The attack missed; the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger snapped its head irritably, roared again, and charged at Su Yun Tian.
Seeing this, Su Yun Tian instantly activated his martial soul; four pairs of violet‑black wings sprouted on his back, accompanied by three circles of ink‑black ten‑thousand‑year soul rings.
After absorbing the primordial power, his first three soul rings successfully reached the ten‑thousand‑year level.
Unlike the Six-winged Angel, the Eight-wing Fallen Angel carries a purple‑black long sword called the Dark Holy Sword; when it strikes, it adds a devouring effect at the wound, continuously absorbing the enemy's soul power to feed itself and the Dark Holy Sword.
Sensing a breath like its own, the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger seemed to pause briefly, but only for an instant.
"Bang!"
The tiger's claw clashed with the Dark Holy Sword, and Su Yun Tian felt a massive force, unintentionally stepping back.
As a ten‑thousand‑year super soul beast, the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger's power is immense.
Fortunately, Wang Qiuer was not idle; seeing Su Yun Tian suppressed, she unhesitatingly released her Golden Dragon martial soul.
She exerted force violently, even the ground cracked with countless fissures.
Immediately, she vaulted again, her right fist quickly cloaked in a layer of radiant golden hexagonal dragon scales.
"Aaa—!" Accompanied by a dragon's roar, Wang Qiuer's punch slammed into the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger's waist, sending it flying, crashing into several large trees before it finally halted.
Speaking of strength, what soul beast can match the ancestral power of the Golden Dragon?
"We go!" Wang Qiuer shouted sweetly, brandishing a Golden Dragon Spear and charging forward again.
Su Yun Tian nodded, using his martial soul advantage to ascend into the air, while his first soul ring lit up.
"First soul skill, dark particles!"
With that, Su Yun Tian extended his right hand forward, countless dark particles surged from his palm, rushing toward the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger to restrain it.
The Eight-wing Fallen Angel's first soul skill can summon dark particles, which he controls for containment, defense, or even attack.
When used properly, it is truly a divine technique.
As the dark particles neared the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger, they quickly coalesced in the air, forming a chain that tightly bound its limbs.
Whether wolf or tiger, they are said to have copper heads, iron bones, and tofu waists.
The waist is the weak point of such soul beasts.
But the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger is swift, so it can only be restrained through a soul skill.
As a million‑year‑level soul skill, even though its actual age is only ten thousand years now, its power is certainly not to be underestimated.
As the chain contracted, the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger's struggle was futile, and it fell to the ground.
Nevertheless, the two did not let their guard down; no one knew whether the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger might suddenly go berserk.
Just as they expected, upon approaching, the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger's muscles bulged instantly, and the chain burst apart, scattering on the ground.
At that moment the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger roared again, indicating the battle was far from over.
Immediately after, its body became ethereal, its form gradually dissipating like an energy sphere, barreling forward recklessly.
As a super soul beast, each possesses its own soul skill, differing only in number.
Su Yun Tian raised an eyebrow; the Eight-wing Fallen Angel vanished instantly, transforming into a Sea God martial soul.
When the trident was unleashed, the Sea God's light spread across the forest like a tide.
Any evil attribute would be suppressed by the Sea God's light.
The energy sphere formed by the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger slowed noticeably, yet kept moving toward Su Yun Tian.
Su Yun Tian flicked his right hand; the trident spun in the air, gradually forming a golden halo.
The evil energy vanished the instant it made contact.
Simultaneously, the Sea God domain activated.
At the moment of activation, everything around seemed tinted with a blue‑golden aura.
The energy sphere of the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger collided with the trident; as Su Yun Tian poured even greater Sea God light into it, it could no longer hold, the energy burst instantly, and the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger was flung backward.
Glancing at Wang Qiuer beside him, Su Yun Tian said, "Qiuer, finish it in one breath!"
"Mm!" Wang Qiuer nodded, hoisting her Golden Dragon Spear and charging again.
Su Yun Tian released the trident from his hand, and immediately, a flash of silver, the Heavenly Saint Rift Abyss Halberd appeared in his grasp.
Just like the first use, as soon as it was summoned, a terrifying suction emanated from within the Heavenly Saint Rift Abyss Halberd, and his soul power drained rapidly.
Originally, based on his Soul Ancestor‑level soul power, he could have used it for a little over twenty seconds, but after prior consumption, it was estimated to be only a few dozen seconds left.
Yet, given the Heavenly Saint Rift Abyss Halberd's defense‑ignoring trait, those few dozen seconds were sufficient.
Wang Qiuer led the charge, her Golden Dragon Spear sweeping across, a golden dragon soul striking the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger directly.
She then vaulted again, aiming straight at its head.
Su Yun Tian kept searching for an opening; seeing the moment, he darted to its side with a swift step, and while the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger's attention was on Wang Qiuer, he thrust directly at its waist.
"Roar!"
Sensing the searing pain in its waist, the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger let out a roar, but at this point it was at the end of its strength, utterly powerless before a divine artifact and a super artifact.
Especially the terrifying lethality of the Heavenly Saint Rift Abyss Halberd; any strike would surely leave a fresh wound.
Just ten seconds later, accompanied by the Dark Night Evil Sword Tiger's resentful roar, the super soul beast finally collapsed completely.
Su Yun Tian put away the Heavenly Saint Rift Abyss Halberd, then he leaned against a tree, panting heavily.
"Qiu Er, you keep watch for me first; I'll recover some soul power before absorbing." Su Yun Tian said.
"Mm." Wang Qiu Er nodded, also sitting down beside him.
Seeing this, Su Yun Tian gently closed his eyes, recovering the soul power that had been completely exhausted within his body.
To absorb the soul ring of this super soul beast, only by maintaining peak condition can one ensure successful absorption.
If, according to his current condition, he forcibly absorbs it, it's tantamount to seeking death.
