Chapter 253: Dark Evil Tiger_1
On the other hand, Chu Qin, accompanied by Hulena, arrived at Bi Ji’s cave.
Gu Yuena had once told Chu Qin that Bi Ji was the all-knowing guardian of the Aquipeia Forest, responsible for its alarm system. Therefore, there was hardly anything that occurred within the Aquipeia Forest that she would not be aware of.
"Lord Chu Qin, what do you want with me?" Upon seeing Chu Qin, Bi Ji said with a charming smile.
"Bi Ji, my friend Hulena, she wishes to find a Dark Demon Vanguard to serve as her Soul Ring. Do you know where one might be?" Chu Qin asked.
"A Dark Demon Vanguard?" Bi Ji’s delicate brows furrowed, "Such a soul beast is naturally ferocious, with both strength and spirit. Like another kind of soul beast, the Dark Evil Tiger, wherever they appear, they will inevitably be attacked by a swarm of soul beasts, which means very few survive!"
"You don’t know either?" Chu Qin asked.
"A while ago, there was a soul beast shrouded in black clouds that appeared not far from the core area, but I’m not sure if it’s a Dark Demon Vanguard or a Dark Evil Tiger," Bi Ji replied, "It can be certain that it’s a twenty to thirty-thousand-year level soul beast!"
"That’s what we need, a ten-thousand-year level! Is there a difference between the two?" Chu Qin’s eyebrows raised in question.
"Not much really. Both are soul beasts that possess both strength and psychic powers. However, the Dark Evil Tiger is stronger in terms of physical strength, whereas the Dark Demon Vanguard has an advantage in spirit," Bi Ji responded, "Of course, the threat of the Dark Evil Tiger is much greater than that of the Vanguard! But with Lord Chu Qin taking action, there shouldn’t be a problem!"
"Then point the way for me!" Chu Qin said with a slight smile.
"Since it is Lord Chu Qin himself asking for my assistance, let Bi Ji guide you there. That place is complicated and maze-like; one misstep can lead you astray!" Bi Ji said with a radiant smile.
"Good!" Chu Qin nodded his head.
As soon as the words were spoken, Bi Ji’s true form disappeared from its place, replaced by a stunningly beautiful beastly silhouette. It took the form of a swan, its wings spanning over ten meters when spread, with its whole body appearing the color of jade, as if made of emerald. This was indeed Bi Ji’s true form, the Emerald Swan!
"My lord, please come aboard!" Bi Ji’s gentle voice beckoned.
Chu Qin, without hesitation, wrapped his arm around Hulena’s waist, and with a brief act of teleporting, he was on the back of the Emerald Swan.
Chu Qin’s sudden move caused Hulena’s pretty face to blush.
"What’s the matter, Hulena?" Chu Qin, obviously taking advantage, yet feigning innocence, asked.
"Nothing!" Hulena, with her head lowered, replied with a smile, "Thank you, Elder Chu Qin!"
"No need for such formality with me!" Chu Qin said with a light smile.
"Hmm!" Upon hearing his words, Hulena’s smile seemed to brighten even more.
Mounted on Bi Ji, Chu Qin and Hulena flew an unknown number of miles until at last they arrived above an abyss!
Such abysses were numerous in the Aquipeia Forest; looking down from the sky, one couldn’t even see the bottom. Inside these, there usually dwelled some powerful ferocious beasts!
Of course, there were few, if any, ferocious beasts at the hundred-thousand-year level. Di Tian had previously conducted several sweeping clearances through the Aquipeia Forest, causing the hundred-thousand-year level beasts to either become extinct or to follow him.
Still, one could hear from below the abyss the roars of beasts echoing now and then!
"This sound, it’s more like that of a Dark Demon Vanguard!" the Emerald Swan spoke up.
Upon hearing this, Chu Qin’s pupils turned a pale white. His Skydream Ice Silkworm’s x-ray vision skill was not only for peeping. His formidable psychic power was enough to cover the entire abyss.
Of course, the main purpose was to spy on beauties!
Soon, Chu Qin locked onto his target, beneath the abyss, there were two figures shrouded in black clouds, one resembled a tiger, while the other looked more like a leopard!
"One tiger and one leopard, Bi Ji, which one is the Dark Demon Vanguard?" Chu Qin asked.
"The tiger is the Evil God, and the leopard is the Vanguard. I didn’t expect both rare soul beasts to appear!" Bi Ji replied, "Lord, shall we take action?"
"Mm!" Chu Qin nodded and then the black, black, black, black, black, red, rose gold, gold, gold, nine Soul Rings shining with what could be deemed extreme configurations lit up beneath his feet!
Immediately, Chu Qin’s spiritual force locked onto the two ferocious beasts, and he made use of his Soul Power to dive straight into the abyss!
Seeing this scene, Hulena was stunned in place! She hadn’t witnessed the fight between Chu Qin and Qian Daoliu, so she didn’t know Chu Qin’s true strength.
But now she realized that Chu Qin was a Titled Douluo, and his Soul Rings setup was something she had never seen before!
She finally understood why so many outstanding women and soul beasts were drawn to Chu Qin; it wasn’t just his looks, but more so his strength!
Under the pull of Chu Qin’s Soul Power, the two soul beasts finally revealed their true forms, which was exactly as Chu Qin had seen: one tiger and one leopard, their bodies displaying a kind of pure black color without any impurities. The tails of both, whether leopard or tiger, resembled those of scorpions, segmented in sections!
"These two have body lengths of around four meters, their cultivation isn’t much different, they are just suitable for Soul Emperor’s Soul Rings!" Bi Ji said. She was very kind towards soul beasts, but had no sympathy for such naturally vicious ones.
"Today you’re in luck!" Chu Qin said with a faint smile, releasing the power that bound the Dark Evil Tiger and then drawing the Dark Demon Vanguard close to him!
However, the Dark Evil Tiger erupted with black Thunder over its body, like lightning, and charged directly at Chu Qin!
"It seems these two soul beasts are mates," Chu Qin hadn’t made a move, but from Bi Ji’s mouth, a stream of green light spewed forth!
In an instant, the Dark Evil Tiger was hit by Bi Ji’s light wave, the light wave resembling a bubble, trapping the Dark Evil Tiger within, rendering it motionless!
Bi Ji, after all, didn’t have the heart to kill.
She was too kind, almost as if she wasn’t a soul beast at all.
"Hulena, I’ll leave it to you!" Chu Qin slightly clenched his hand, and with that, the Dark Demon Vanguard was heavily slammed onto the ground!
Soon, the Dark Demon Vanguard got up, starting to roar brazenly at Chu Qin and Bi Ji.
"Elder Chu Qin, let me do it!" Hulena quickly said, seeing Chu Qin was about to continue, as she believed Chu Qin had already helped her enough. If she could obtain such a powerful sixth soul ring so easily, she’d still feel unaccustomed!
"Alright!" Chu Qin, of course, did not refuse Hulena’s request.
Immediately after, Hulena’s Killing God Field activated, summoning her Martial Soul Soul Rings, wielding her short blade, and beginning a fierce battle with the Dark Demon Vanguard.
The Dark Demon Vanguard, with its Extreme Evil attributes, was far stronger than soul beasts of the same cultivation, but don’t forget that Hulena wasn’t just anyone, else she wouldn’t have been able to claim the title of champion in Slaughter City with just the strength of a Soul King!
Moreover, she had learned the Dragon Clan’s Secret Technique, taking her strength to a new level!
Seeing the Dark Demon Vanguard being perfectly overwhelmed by Hulena, Chu Qin smiled contentedly.
"Lord Chu Qin, how should we deal with this Dark Evil Tiger?" Bi Ji asked, "It’s also a rare soul beast, and if the ladies around you need it, it could make for a fine Soul Ring!"
