Ye Yu had already consumed a great deal of Spirit Power summoning his Blue Silver Spirit Jade Tree Martial Soul, unleashing a sequence of powerful Spirit Abilities, and casting his self-created technique: Blue Silver Wood Dragon, to strike at the Dark Devilgod Tiger.
Yet the moment the tiger launched a barrage of black blades—
His Blue Silver Wood Dragons were shredded into fragments, their remnants scattering to the ground like shattered crystal.
But in the next instant—
Those scattered fragments took root, sprouting into a vast Blue Silver Forest made of towering Spiritjade Trees.
Under the combined effects of his:
1st Spirit Ability: Undying Root,
2nd Spirit Ability: Starlight Absorption,
4th Spirit Ability: Earth Pulse Connection, and
6th Spirit Ability: Parasitic Devour,
the entire forest became self-sustaining.
Rather than drain Ye Yu's energy, it began feeding Spirit Power and life force back into him—restoring him to full condition, and even overcharging his reserves!
Meanwhile, the black blades unleashed by the Dark Devilgod Tiger may have torn apart his previous wave of Wood Dragons, but—
Even more Spirit Jade Trees had already sprouted from the ground, climbing skyward with unstoppable momentum.
In the sky above, they twisted and merged again into fresh Blue Silver Wood Dragons—roaring as they spiraled toward the tiger, crashing, constricting, and gnashing madly.
"ROAR!"
The Dark Devilgod Tiger let out a panicked and furious bellow. For once, the god-tier beast was overwhelmed.
A pulse of black light erupted from its massive form, sweeping across the sky.
As it washed over the incoming Blue Silver Wood Dragons—
Their vitality began to wither, as if drained by some unseen force.
But it wasn't enough.
Though Ye Yu's rank was only that of a Spirit Emperor, the quality of his Spirit Power had already reached the level of a Title Douluo.
His Spirit Rings, too, were no weaker than those of a Title Douluo—he simply lacked a seventh ring to unlock Martial Soul True Body.
Yet thanks to his path of Limit Lifeforce, and the passive effects of his 3rd Spirit Ability: Tribulation Ascension, his Martial Soul had evolved similarly to a post-tribulation Thunder Prison Hell Vine.
Whenever his Spiritjade Trees were damaged but not destroyed—
They would regenerate stronger, faster, and more resilient than before.
And his sixth ring? Absorbed from a 90,000-year-old Demon Willow, a plant-type Spirit Beast possessing both darkness and evil attributes.
Although it didn't match the level of the Dark Devilgod Tiger in darkness and corruption, in the world of plant beasts, it was akin to the Titan Giant Ape or Sky Blue Bull Python.
As a result, Ye Yu's Blue Silver Spirit Jade Tree gained significant resistance to darkness and evil attributes.
The Dark Devilgod Tiger's black-light attack—charged with evil, wind, and lightning elements—was no longer enough to overwhelm him.
Instead, bolstered by Tribulation Ascension, Ye Yu's tree Martial Soul only grew stronger.
Sure, it cost more Spirit Power.
But the vast Blue Silver Forest on the ground was pumping that energy right back into him.
The tide had turned.
The tiger's attacks were losing effectiveness. Ye Yu's Wood Dragons grew in number, ferocity, and resilience—completely sealing off the sky.
Then, he triggered the active effect of his third ability: Tribulation Ascension.
Dark clouds rolled in from every direction, oppressive and turbulent.
Black thunderclouds gathered overhead like a doomsday curtain, swirling with arcs of lightning slithering across the sky.
And still—
Hundreds, then thousands of Blue Silver Wood Dragons soared upward, surrounding and striking the Dark Devilgod Tiger from every direction.
Despite its claws, fangs, wings, and scorpion tail—
It couldn't keep up.
Struck repeatedly, its massive body showed signs of fatigue and injury.
It was lucky that Ye Yu's 6th Ability: Parasitic Devour had no effect on god-level beasts like the Dark Devilgod Tiger. Otherwise, one successful bind from the Wood Dragons might have spelled its end.
Even without that, the pressure was relentless.
The sky sealed, the ground hostile, the thunderclouds looming...
The Dark Devilgod Tiger began to falter.
Its rage turned to fear, its ambition to flee.
It had given up on devouring Ye Yu.
All it wanted now was to escape and regroup.
But how?
In reaction time, awareness, and precision—Ye Yu held every advantage.
As a practitioner of Limit Lifeforce, a body-refining Spirit Master who had consumed the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, and one who had mastered the Purple Demon Eye—
He outclassed the tiger in every way.
Every attempt to flee was cut off by waves of Blue Silver Wood Dragons.
Every escape route was sealed.
And so—
The Dark Devilgod Tiger was forced downward in despair, crashing into the ground of the Star Dou Forest.
But the forest was no longer its domain.
It was now a Blue Silver Forest.
Spiritjade Trees covered the land in every direction, all rooted deep in the earth, enhanced by Undying Root and Earth Pulse Connection, growing stronger by the second.
On the ground, the injured Dark Devilgod Tiger was battered again and again by lashing vines and tree limbs. Exhausted, bleeding, overwhelmed—
It had no way out.
From high above, thousands of meters in the air—
Ye Yu activated his Purple Demon Eye, locking onto his prey.
Then, he prepared his self-created finishing move:
Spirit Ability: Super Electromagnetic Cannon
He shifted his Martial Soul to his back.
Blue Silver Spiritjade Trees coiled along both his arms, forming long barrels of crystalline blue that extended a dozen meters—railgun barrels made of living wood and lightning.
Next, from his Storage-Type Soul Tool: Jade Dragon Bracelet, he withdrew heavy black iron spike shells.
Suspended in midair via the electromagnetic field of his Magnetic Thunder Body, they floated silently—deadly.
His Spirit Core surged to maximum output, converting Spirit Power into violent electric force that surged into the railgun barrels.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
The first black iron shell launched—velocity exceeding 2,000 meters per second—hurtling toward the Dark Devilgod Tiger.
Though the tiger's Domain of Darkness gave it premonition...
It had no time to react.
KRAKABOOM!
A scream of agony tore through the air.
A hole the size of a human head appeared in its chest—flesh and bone blown apart, black blood spraying like a fountain.
The first shell had pierced clean through its spine and embedded into the earth below.
And that was just one shot.
Ye Yu wasn't done.
He had locked on. Five shells in total. A full burst.
Five glowing iron projectiles exploded from his railgun barrels in quick succession, striking the massive beast like meteorites.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The Dark Devilgod Tiger never even had the chance to activate its innate ability: Deathmatch Arena.
Its monstrous body was reduced to a bloody ragdoll, limbs flailing as it was flung through the air, then crashed violently to the ground.
Twisted.
Broken.
Utterly defeated.
