Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 49 The Cicada Awaits

"There's even a pack of tigers." Lin Chen hid in a tree, activating his invisibility veil and life domain simultaneously. He had planned to ambush them from behind, but he hadn't expected the mantis catching the cicada to be so powerful.

Seeing this, the saber-toothed tiger neither dodged nor avoided the attack, and continued to fight the oncoming tiger pack.

It can only be said that the saber-toothed tiger, which is over 70,000 years old, is indeed powerful. Even after using its innate skills, its combat strength is still online, and it doesn't flinch when fighting against so many tiger-type soul beasts.

One after another, saber-toothed tigers appeared before them, their sharp teeth ensuring no one would survive. Compared to these saber-toothed tigers, tiger spirit beasts that were thirty or forty thousand years old seemed insignificant.

"There should be a leader of a tiger pack on the other side," Qian Renxue analyzed.

Lin Chen nodded; that was what he thought too.

After the second round of attacks, Lin Chen could clearly see that the saber-toothed tiger's condition had declined significantly, and its aura had also dropped.

At this moment, two tiger-type spirit beasts, each 50,000 years old and one 60,000 years old, appeared from three different directions, staring intently at the saber-toothed tiger.

"There are actually two 50,000-year-old soul beasts and one 60,000-year-old soul beast. What kind of spiritual power do the soul beasts controlling them possess?!" Lin Chen couldn't help but wonder. Logically speaking, only a 100,000-year-old soul beast could easily control two 50,000-year-old and one 60,000-year-old soul beasts, but this is not the living area of ​​a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

"Sister Renxue, can you sense the presence of a 100,000-year-old soul beast nearby?" Lin Chen asked Qian Renxue.

"I'm absolutely certain there are no 100,000-year-old soul beasts around here, and..."

Just then, the appearance of a soul beast interrupted Qian Renxue's words and also attracted Lin Chen's attention.

A tiger-like spirit beast with blue eyes and white fur slowly emerged from the middle of the other three tiger spirit beasts, looking extremely noble.

"This is... the Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger!" Qian Renxue exclaimed in surprise.

"Blue-eyed Divine Tiger? What kind of soul beast is that?" Lin Chen asked in confusion.

"This kind of soul beast was already on the verge of extinction ten thousand years ago, so it's normal that you haven't heard of it. Back then, I was hiding in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, and I encountered one by chance when I went out once. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a spirit-type soul beast, and its spiritual power has reached the level of 100,000 years," Qian Renxue explained.

"So strong? No wonder he can control so many tiger soul beasts." Lin Chen understood.

"The Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger itself is not very powerful, which is why it needs to use its mental power to control the other tigers to fight for it," Qian Renxue added.

Tiger-type spirit beasts are irreconcilable enemies, and the battle has now reached a fever pitch. These three high-level, ten-thousand-year-old spirit beasts are the Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger's last trump card.

The Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger hadn't expected this saber-toothed tiger to be so powerful. Generally speaking, very few soul beasts could withstand the tiger pack he controlled, but this saber-toothed tiger had withstood it all. This was absolute strength.

The Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger didn't waste any words, nor did it have anything to say. It let out a roar, and the three high-level, ten-thousand-year-old tiger-type soul beasts seemed to receive some information and pounced on the saber-toothed tiger at the same time.

The latter, equally fearless, met the formidable enemy with a roar.

Momentum is very important! Both sides are competing to see who can shout the loudest.

Seeing that they had started fighting, Lin Chen also began to think about how to control the situation and take the initiative.

If he possessed absolute strength, Lin Chen could go out now and kill them all with a single sword strike. However, the problem is that he is currently just a minor Quasi-Soul Emperor. Even with the support of a 100,000-year soul ring, it would be impossible for him to defeat four high-level 10,000-year soul beasts by himself, right? Any one of these four is equivalent to a high-level human Soul Saint.

The saber-toothed tiger was covered in wounds, but it did not give up and continued to use its saber teeth to inflict damage on its enemies.

The three high-level, ten-thousand-year-old tiger-type soul beasts also suffered injuries of varying degrees, but since it was three against one, their injuries were much lighter than those of the saber-toothed tiger.

Even ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts possess considerable intelligence, let alone a seventy-thousand-year-old saber-toothed tiger. During this time, he pounced on the blue-eyed divine tiger several times to eliminate it, but was stopped by the three tiger soul beasts each time.

"Roar!" With another roar, the saber-toothed tiger used its innate skill once again, and countless saber teeth appeared in the sky, shooting towards the four soul beasts opposite it.

The four tiger spirit beasts each defended themselves, since they were not of the same kind and did not have any combined attack skills.

The blue-eyed tiger was also injured in several places, and the bright red blood stood out even more against its white fur.

The saber-toothed tiger's aura also weakened once again.

Seeing this, the Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger ordered its three Tiger Soul Beasts to attack the Saber-Toothed Tiger together.

Under the attack of the three tiger spirit beasts, the saber-toothed tiger was soon on the verge of death.

The blue-eyed tiger slowly stepped forward, looking down at the saber-toothed tiger, seemingly to display its nobility.

Seeing that the saber-toothed tiger was about to be killed, Lin Chen knew that he had to take action.

Just as the Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger's paw was about to strike, a massive Seven Kill Sword appeared out of thin air above the Saber-Toothed Tiger. Faced with this sudden sword attack, the four soul beasts quickly retreated.

Lin Chen leaped into the air and stepped into the Seven Kill Sword.

The Seven Kill Sword fell fiercely, accompanied by powerful lightning, and the saber-toothed tiger's life was extinguished in the lightning.

A jet-black spirit ring suddenly floated in the air.

This is the second soul skill of the fifth soul ring that Thunder Kirin bestowed upon Lin Chen: Seven Kill Thunder Rise, One Sword Pierces the Sky!

This soul skill is Lin Chen's strongest single-target attack soul skill to date, and no one of the same level can withstand it.

Its name comes from Sword Douluo's eighth soul skill, but its effect is much stronger, and it also carries powerful lightning power.

After dealing with the saber-toothed tiger, Lin Chen quickly put its corpse into his storage bag and fled the place on the Seven Kill Sword.

How could the Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger let Lin Chen leave unscathed? It immediately gave the order, and the four tiger soul beasts chased after Lin Chen together.

Lin Chen's actions just now were undoubtedly a provocation to the Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger. Not only did he kill the saber-toothed tiger first, but he also took the corpse with him. You should know that at their level, they would usually keep a part of the killed soul beast as their spoils.

Seeing the four soul beasts chasing after him, Lin Chen immediately used his Thunder Body technique to increase his speed and distance himself from the four soul beasts.

But the four tiger spirit beasts still relentlessly pursued him, closely following behind Lin Chen.

The Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul's speed is not as good as that of an agility-type Soul Master, let alone when facing an opponent with a higher cultivation level. Looking at the four Soul Beasts chasing after him, Lin Chen's heart sank, knowing that this battle was inevitable.

"It seems we have no choice but to fight."

With a leap, Lin Chen landed steadily on the ground, staring at the four tiger-spirit beasts that had stopped.
