401 Xie Yan Tyrant_1

The Soul-guiding Cannon on the Golden Battleship was already extremely powerful; empowered by Bai Xiuxiu, a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, the force it unleashed was now comparable to the full strike of a level-96 Hyper Douluo!

In a flash, the Soul-guiding Cannon exploded at the center of the forest. After a violent burst of Xuan Guang, swathes of the forest were utterly destroyed, leaving behind a huge black pit!

"Xiuxiu sister is so amazing, I can't fall behind either!"

Wang Qiu'er followed with excitement.

"Qiu'er, this is the heart of the Evil Eye Forest; we can't make too much of a spectacle!" Lan Jing'er cautioned.

"It's okay, Jing'er," Chu Qin interjected, "Let them make a fuss, the bigger the better!"

"Ah!" exclaimed both Longhuang and Lan Jing'er, slightly surprised.

Chu Qin smiled without a word. His purpose was twofold: firstly, to draw the attention of the powerful soul beasts throughout the Evil Eye Forest so he could capture them all at once—thus greatly reducing the danger level for Princess Yi Chen.

Secondly, his greatest aim was to lure out the ruler of the Evil Eye Forest!

With Chu Qin's permission, Wang Qiu'er became even more unrestrained!

However, just as Wang Qiu'er was about to unleash the Soul-guiding Cannon, a beam of red light burst forth from within the Evil Eye Forest ahead of her!

"Hmph, perfect timing!" Seeing the laser, Wang Qiu'er was not frightened but thrilled and aimed the Soul-guiding Cannon directly at it!

"Boom!"

The next second, Wang Qiu'er's soul-guided laser and the mysterious red light fiercely collided!

But in an instant, Wang Qiu'er's soul-guided laser was completely shattered by the red light!

The red light, undiminished in momentum, charged towards the Golden Battleship!

Seeing this, the Deepsea Devil Whale King was the first to take action. He knew that on the entire battleship, his status was the lowest—if he didn't make a move, then who would?

The Deepsea Devil Whale King unleashed a black hole, which instantly devoured the red beam that was originally aimed at the Golden Battleship.

Immediately afterward, the black hole—with immense power—charged into the depths of the forest!

The creatures within the forest, sensing the intimidation of the black hole, dared not confront it head-on and instead dodged the attack by leaping up, coming to the forest's canopy.

Now, everyone could finally see its true form: it was a giant eyeball over a hundred meters in size, exuding a terrifyingly crimson hue, and surrounded by tendrils much like those of an octopus—its appearance was rather unsightly.

With a glance, Chu Qin quickly determined its identity as an Xie Yan Tyrant, though not the ruler.

"A hundred-thousand-year Xie Yan Tyrant!" both Longhuang and Lan Jing'er exclaimed in surprise.

"Wow, are we that lucky? We encountered a hundred-thousand-year soul beast right off the bat!" Wang Qiu'er exclaimed joyfully.

"Qiu'er, Xiuxiu, Xiaowu, Xue'er, does any of you need a Soul Ring?" Chu Qin asked.

The girls shook their heads; most of them already had Divine Granted Soul Rings and did not need a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring.

"Forget it, then let's take the soul bone," Chu Qin sighed softly.

"Actually, Chu Qin, we could capture it!" Lan Jing'er said with a smile.

"Hmm? How do we capture it?" Chu Qin asked curiously.

"With this!" Lan Jing'er said, taking out a square metal box from the Soul Guidance Container.

"What's this?" both Chu Qin and the girls asked in confusion.

"It's called the God-Sealing Platform!" Lan Jing'er replied, "It is the first ninth-grade soul tool I have developed, capable of sealing powerful soul beasts. I believe sealing a hundred-thousand-year soul beast should not be a problem!"

"Good!" Chu Qin nodded.

The Xie Yan Tyrant didn't hear Chu Qin's conversation. He spoke coldly, "Who are you people, daring to trespass on the Evil Emperor's territory!"

"What Evil Emperor, nothing but a turtle hiding in its cave underground, afraid to come out!" Chu Qin intentionally mocked.

"How dare you, to disrespect the Evil Emperor!" The Xie Yan Tyrant sneered, "I see you are seeking death!"

"Seeking death!" Chu Qin scoffed disdainfully, "Jing'er, seize the opportunity, don't let it escape!"

"Okay!" Lan Jing'er replied, brimming with confidence.

"What, you dare to make a move!" Hearing Chu Qin's dismissive words, the Xie Yan Tyrant inexplicably felt some fear.

"Destruction Death Ray!"

Once the Xie Yan Tyrant used this move, its pupils changed from crimson red to a pitch-black color, and immediately, a strong beam of light shot out from within its eyeball!

"Chu Qin, let me take this one, take the hit!" Zi Ji, who had been unable to act earlier because Bai Xiuxiu had killed the Black Dragon, was not happy. Now that another one was courting death, she naturally could not let it go.

"Okay!" Chu Qin smiled and nodded.

With Chu Qin's permission, Zi Ji's delicate arm transformed into the icy-cold claw of a dragon.

Zi Ji made two swipes in the air, and a giant 'X' made of flame met the Xie Yan Tyrant's Destruction Death Ray head-on.

Despite the Xie Yan Tyrant's strength, its cultivation was barely at the level of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast. Zi Ji, not only had a cultivation of two hundred thousand years, but also possessed the most proud Dragon King blood, and with the secret techniques Gu Yuena had taught her over the years, Zi Ji was now capable of single-handedly challenging a three-hundred-thousand-year ferocious beast.

Thus, after a mere few breaths of standoff, Zi Ji's claw shadow shattered the Xie Yan Tyrant's Destruction Death Ray.

"You, you're also a soul beast!" Feeling the strong soul beast aura emanating from Zi Ji, and facing the incoming 'X' claw marks, the Xie Yan Tyrant's massive eyeball tensed.

"Now you realize, but it's too late!" Zi Ji's mouth quirked.

However, unexpectedly, when Zi Ji's 'X' claw mark hit the Xie Yan Tyrant, it didn't injure it but seemed to strike a mass of air, passing directly through.

This turned out to be a clone of the Xie Yan Tyrant!

"What!" Zi Ji's eyebrows furrowed. It wasn't just Zi Ji; You Ji, Bi Ji, Bai Yingying, and Lan Jing'er all had a similar expression of shock. They had not realized that this was just a clone of the Xie Yan Tyrant!

"Ah Zi, be careful above!"

The only ones who saw through it were Chu Qin, who possessed the Eyes of the Illusion God, and Longhuang (Dragon Phoenix), though the latter hadn't used the Eyes of the Illusion God. Instead, the former simply smiled lightly and reminded her.

As expected, when Zi Ji and the others looked up, they saw the Xie Yan Tyrant had already appeared in the high sky!

"Daring to deceive me!" Zi Ji sneered, "Die!"

As Zi Ji finished speaking, a mystical dragon's face appeared on her own, and immediately a purple flame burst forth from the dragon's mouth – that is, from Zi Ji's own mouth!

"Humph, you don't really think a mere Black Dragon has the audacity to run wild in the Evil Emperor's domain!" The Xie Yan Tyrant scoffed, and from its eyeball body, waves of purple light spread out in concentric ripples.

Soon, countless waves of the same purple light appeared within the forest, seemingly in response to the Xie Yan Tyrant's summoning!

"This is bad, so many Xie Yan Tyrants!"

Seeing the thousands of Xie Yan Tyrants, Lan Jing'er's brows furrowed, and Zi Ji's pupils also shrank.

Only Chu Qin remained calm, as he had never considered these Xie Yan Tyrants a worthy opponent.
