Yu Xiaogang's Luo Sanpao is a mutated beast spirit. Although it lacks the ability to possess a body, a beast spirit is still a beast spirit, different from a weapon spirit.
When Yu Xiaogang hunted the Mandragora Snake for Tang San, Luo Sanpao was bitten and poisoned. Now, he even had the audacity to add a poison attribute to Luo Sanpao.
Luo Ling smiled, somewhat anticipating what changes Luo Sanpao with the poison attribute would bring to Yu Xiaogang.
Watching Yu Xiaogang and Flander leave their residence through the crow's eyes, Luo Ling also called Ghost Douluo to head to the Star Dou Great Forest.
He was also there to hunt spirit rings, and seeing that Yu Xiaogang was just an accessory, leaving a crow would suffice.
"Your Highness, I'm going to search for nearby dark-type spirit beasts. Please be careful." Ghost Douluo nodded slightly to Luo Ling, then vanished in a flash.
Luo Ling wasn't idle either; he extended his spiritual power, releasing a large number of crows to search the surroundings.
He had now arrived at the mixed zone, home to numerous soul beasts over ten thousand years old. Not far ahead lay the core zone,
a gathering place for soul beasts over fifty thousand years old, where Xiao Wu's Da Ming and Er Ming were.
Luo Ling didn't dare to overestimate his abilities and venture into the core zone; it was too dangerous and unnecessary.
As he walked, a tiger's roar suddenly echoed ahead.
Instantly, the surrounding birds and beasts scattered. Luo Ling looked in the direction of the roar and sensed an incredibly dark and evil power there.
Under this power, he could feel a yearning within his soul power.
What was that?
Just as Luo Ling was about to investigate, Ghost Douluo appeared beside him.
"Your Highness, there's a nearly 100,000-year-old human-faced demon spider and a tiger-type soul beast that's less than 50,000 years old fighting ahead."
Hearing Ghost Douluo's description, Luo Ling's eyes suddenly lit up. "What exactly does that tiger-type soul beast look like?"
Ghost Douluo paused for a moment, then thought for a second and said, "It's completely black, with red eyes, and its body is probably seven or eight meters long. Its tail is different from ordinary tiger-type soul beasts; it's composed of countless joints, and there's a barb at the end."
Listening to Ghost Douluo's description, the light in Luo Ling's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
Dark Demon Evil God Tiger!
The name of that tiger-type soul beast flashed through his mind!
This was one of the top-tier soul beasts in the soul beast world, probably the one Tang San encountered later in the original story.
However, it was only less than 50,000 years old.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was a species created when an evil god descended upon a white tiger. It possessed immense combat power and could rapidly increase its strength by devouring other soul beasts.
A Dark Demon Evil God Tiger less than 50,000 years old was comparable in combat power to a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
"Your Highness, do you intend to hunt that tiger-type spirit beast?" Ghost Douluo asked tentatively.
"Is there a problem?" Luo Ling asked.
"No problem. That tiger-type spirit beast is of the dark attribute, which is quite suitable as Your Highness's fifth spirit ring. However, if Your Highness intends to hunt it, we must act quickly."
"That tiger-type spirit beast is fighting a nearly 100,000-year-old human-faced demon spider. If we're too late, it might be killed by the human-faced demon spider,"
Ghost Douluo said solemnly.
"Haha, Uncle Ghost, there's no need to worry." Luo Ling laughed upon hearing this. "That Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is no ordinary beast. Fighting the Human-Faced Demon Spider, the outcome is uncertain."
Ghost Douluo was taken aback, and upon hearing Luo Ling call out the name of the tiger-like soul beast, asked, "Your Highness, do you recognize that soul beast?"
"Of course, it's the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, one of the top-tier soul beasts, and it's even related to the legendary evil god. Its combat power is immense; a ten-thousand-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is qualified to challenge a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast."
Luo Ling said slowly. The darkness around Ghost Douluo noticeably fluctuated.
The idea of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast contending with a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast seemed like a complete fantasy to him. "If Uncle Ghost doesn't believe me, let's go take a look together." Luo Ling shook his head and rushed directly towards the battle ahead.
The two arrived at the battlefield of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
Both possessing dark-type martial souls, their exceptional concealment prevented them from attracting the attention of the two powerful soul beasts.
At this moment, Ghost Douluo was utterly shocked by the scene before him.
Trees were broken in large numbers, covered in white spiderwebs, and the ground was riddled with massive craters, a charred wasteland.
Amidst these ruins, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and the Human-Faced Demon Spider faced off.
One of the Human-Faced Demon Spider's legs was broken, but the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger showed no obvious wounds.
Ghost Douluo recalled Luo Ling's words and now had to believe them.
This Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, less than 50,000 years old, possessed combat power far exceeding his own age.
The battle continued, and Luo Ling had entered a state of martial soul fusion.
Judging from the current situation, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had a high chance of winning; he had to take advantage of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's power while it fought the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
Luo Ling knew that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger possessed the ability to pull its target into another dimension.
Both will revert to their juvenile forms, only escaping the spatial void upon the death of one.
Therefore, Luo Ling's task is to force out this ability of the Dark Demon God Tiger, ideally resulting in a mutually destructive defeat for both sides.
With an eerie red glow in his eyes, Luo Ling looked at the Dark Demon God Tiger amidst the ruins.
His spiritual threads were rapidly wrapping around the Dark Demon God Tiger.
At this moment, the Dark Demon God Tiger and the Human-Faced Demon Spider were locked in fierce combat. Facing the spiderweb and terrifying spider legs attacking from the Human-Faced Demon Spider, it tried to dodge quickly but suddenly found its body incredibly slow, even its thoughts slowing down.
A flicker of panic crossed the Dark Demon God Tiger's eyes, and it froze in place. Seeing this, the Human-Faced Demon Spider's eyes blazed with ferocity.
It had been so badly beaten by a soul beast less than 50,000 years old; the Human-Faced Demon Spider was already burning with rage.
Its ferocious spider legs mercilessly pierced one of the Dark Demon God Tiger's eyes.
"Roar!" A deafening roar resounded.
The Dark Demon God Tiger opened its mouth wide and roared.
The stiffness in its body vanished, as if everything before had been an illusion, but the fact remained that it had been injured by the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
And injured in the eye.
The Dark Demon God Tiger's last remaining eye flashed with an incomparably violent red light.
Feeling the poison spreading from the pierced wound throughout its body, the Dark Demon God Tiger finally couldn't hold back any longer.
Layers of gray light condensed around it into a sphere, which it hurled directly at the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of thunderous roars echoed, destroying everything around it and sending debris flying.
But this wasn't the end!
The Dark Demon God Tiger stared coldly at the blasted fragments of the Human-Faced Demon Spider, its evil hook at the end of its tail swinging, creating a massive black hole three meters in diameter in the air.
Luo Ling and Ghost Douluo stood not far away, watching this scene, a smile playing on Luo Ling's lips.
