#13 - Ten thousand year soul beast: Roaring Sky Tiger
Lin Qiuyang nodded in relief upon hearing this, then took the lead to explore the path ahead. Davis, Zhu Zhuyun, and Zhu Zhuqing stayed in the middle, while Li Hu guarded the rear.
They walked through the Star Dou Great Forest for the better part of the day but didn't encounter any suitable soul beasts.
"Roar!"
In an instant, a deafening tiger roar suddenly erupted, followed by the sounds of clashing weapons.
"A tiger's roar!"
Davis was overjoyed. His martial soul was the Evil Eye White Tiger, so he was very familiar with tiger roars.
"Since there's a tiger's roar, perhaps that tiger-type soul beast is just right for me!"
"Your Highness is right!" Lin Qiuyang's eyes also lit up. "Judging by the sound, that tiger-type soul beast must be fighting other soul beasts. Maybe we can get a bargain!"
"That's right, let's go."
The group all activated their martial souls and sprinted towards the direction of the tiger's roar. After about five minutes, they saw a heavily injured Howling Sky Tiger!
It was a brownish-yellow tiger with black stripes all over its body. It was more than three meters tall, even bigger than the ones Davis had seen in the zoo in his previous life.
Sharp tiger claws, ferocious fangs, and a strong body all declared its authority as the king of beasts.
However, this king of beasts was now somewhat weak, with wounds all over its body, and black blood constantly flowing from the wounds, indicating that it was seriously injured.
"Swish swish swish!"
In front of the Howling Sky Tiger was a Human-Faced Demon Spider with a body exceeding two meters, a terrifying devourer of life!
The Human-Faced Demon Spider had black carapace all over, shiny and bright. Its eight spider legs, each over three meters long, were like eight spears. The front ends of the long legs were slender, and each step silently pierced into the ground, showing how sharp they were.
On the lower abdomen of the Human-Faced Demon Spider, there were some white patterns, forming a sharp contrast with its black body.
These white patterns formed a hideous human face. A total of eight small eyes, flickering with faint purple light, were closely attached to its lower abdomen, which was why it was called the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
The Human-Faced Demon Spider slowly approached the Howling Sky Tiger, drooling disgusting mucus from its mouth, as if it had already regarded the Howling Sky Tiger in front of it as its lunch!
"It's the Howling Sky Tiger and the Human-Faced Demon Spider!"
Lin Qiuyang exclaimed in surprise, then frowned slightly and said, "Your Highness, that Howling Sky Tiger's cultivation has exceeded ten thousand years. Although it's only a little over ten thousand years, it's still a veritable ten-thousand-year soul beast. Let's leave first, in case we get caught up in it."
Not only was the Howling Sky Tiger a ten-thousand-year soul beast, but the Human-Faced Demon Spider's cultivation also exceeded seventeen thousand years, and its strength was no less than that of a twenty-thousand-year soul beast.
The Human-Faced Demon Spider slowly moved forward, opened its bloody mouth, and spat out a tough, poisonous spider web!
Unlike other spider-type soul beasts, the Human-Faced Demon Spider's spider web was directly ejected. It was not only extremely sticky but also extremely tough, and it was attached with terrifying neurotoxins.
Davis could even see the purple venom dripping from the spider web, which looked extremely poisonous.
"Roar roar roar!"
Although the Howling Sky Tiger was seriously injured, the dignity of the king of beasts would not allow it to sit still and wait for death. It used all its strength, raised its head, and roared angrily!
The terrifying roar was deafening, like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, causing the air to vibrate violently. It shattered the extremely tough spider web!
This was also the Howling Sky Tiger's ultimate move: Terror Roar, a type of sonic attack. The strong roar was enough to destroy a person's hearing, causing them to feel terrified and heartbroken!
At the same time, within a short distance, the vibration of the sound waves was enough to shatter rocks and cause real damage to the enemy, and it could ignore defense.
After hearing the roar, the Human-Faced Demon Spider immediately felt its blood churning and its internal organs aching violently. It had no choice but to quickly retreat and keep its distance from the Howling Sky Tiger.
It knew very well that the Howling Sky Tiger had been poisoned by its venom and would soon die. There was no need to fight it head-on.
The direction in which the Human-Faced Demon Spider retreated was precisely where Davis and the others were. At the same time, it also noticed Davis and the others and immediately spat out a huge spider web, intending to obliterate them!
"Fifth Soul Skill: Sword Draws Like a Dragon!"
At the critical moment, Lin Qiuyang took action, grabbing a cyan Mysterious Iron Sword in his hand.
Eight soul rings, yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, and black, surrounded him in the air. At the same time, the black Fifth Soul Ring suddenly flickered, emitting light!
The Mysterious Iron Sword danced wildly in his hand, waving out sharp sword energy. The surrounding trees shook constantly, and the leaves fell continuously, rotating with the wind brought by the sword.
The spider web spat out by the Human-Faced Demon Spider was also cut into pieces by the sharp sword energy. After a successful strike, Lin Qiuyang slashed at the Human-Faced Demon Spider again!
"Sixth Soul Skill: Sword Shadows!"
Lin Qiuyang constantly waved the Mysterious Iron Sword. His swordsmanship was exquisite, and his sword energy was fierce and unparalleled. For a time, countless sword energy pierced through the air towards the Human-Faced Demon Spider!
Lin Qiuyang was extremely experienced in combat and knew that the best way to deal with this kind of poisonous enemy was to keep his distance and launch ranged attacks.
"Rest in peace. We will help you deal with that Human-Faced Demon Spider." After saying that, Davis took out a sharp dagger and stabbed it out, ending the Howling Sky Tiger's life.

Black soul power permeated out, forming a black soul ring!
Zhu Zhuyun said, "It's a pity that this is a ten-thousand-year soul beast, otherwise, this Howling Sky Tiger would have been perfect for you."
"I want to try to absorb this soul ring, Zhuyun, please protect me."
"Huh? Are you crazy!" Zhu Zhuyun was stunned. "Don't you know that absorbing soul rings beyond your level is a dead end?"
"That's not necessarily true. Others can't do it, but that doesn't mean I can't. I've eaten so much ten-thousand-year whale jelly, my physique is not much worse than a Soul King's, I should be able to absorb soul rings beyond my level."
"No! I absolutely disagree! Davis, don't joke with me, okay?" Zhu Zhuyun grabbed Davis's arm tightly, not letting him absorb it.
Davis gently stroked his wife's head and comforted her, "Honey, just let me try. If something goes wrong, you can interrupt me, and I definitely won't blame you. I will definitely absorb this soul ring, believe me!"
"This..." Looking at Davis's resolute eyes, Zhu Zhuyun finally agreed helplessly. She knew she couldn't stop Davis.
"But we've agreed, as long as you have the slightest discomfort, I will immediately interrupt you!"
"No problem, you're really my good wife!"
After kissing Zhu Zhuyun, Davis sat down cross-legged, released his Evil Eye White Tiger Martial Soul, and released his soul power to guide the soul ring to attach to himself.
As he moved the soul ring, a figure of a Howling Sky Tiger instantly appeared in his spiritual sea, launching an impact towards Davis!
"Here it comes! I must conquer you!"
With that said, Davis's spiritual power also transformed into an Evil Eye White Tiger and clashed fiercely with the Howling Sky Tiger! Tiger Roar in the Mountains!
The soul shock of a ten-thousand-year soul beast was very strong, but this Howling Sky Tiger had only just broken through ten thousand years.
Its cultivation was at most around ten thousand and eight hundred years, and at most it shouldn't exceed eleven thousand years.
Therefore, its soul shock was not particularly strong. At least for now, Davis's spiritual power and will could still contend with it.
