Chapter 325: Chapter 324: Summoning the Dark Tiger?
He raised his right hand, striking the void with a slap, and in an instant, arrows of ice coalesced from thin air and shot towards the Demon Tigers like lightning.
The ice arrows were silent but incredibly fast.
The five Demon Tiger Monsters naturally saw the strange changes on the Shrek squad\'s side as well, and their Domain Power suddenly sank, merging with their bodies.
As the ice arrows entered the range of the Dark Domain, they started to show signs of corrosion, slowing down with a decrease in ice element power.
But at that moment, the ice arrows exploded with a bang, scattering ice shards everywhere, and the powerful explosion caused the black fog within the Dark Domain to surge. The shockwave also drastically slowed the charge of the five Demon Tiger Monsters.
Wu Bingji\'s hands moved swiftly, condensing the ice element rapidly before him, and a azure ice spear formed in an instant. The ice spear was etched with strange patterns, and its extreme cold aura swiftly drew inwards.
Witnessing this scene, the audience in the stands held their breath. They had seen the ice spear-like weapon during the last fight of the Shrek squad! It was the same weapon that Wu Bingji had formed when he burned his own bloodline. This time, he hadn\'t burned his bloodline, but the formation of the ice spear was almost instant. To think that last time, even the sturdy defensive power of the Earth Devil Bull, enhanced by the Blue Fox, couldn\'t withstand it.
Under the effect of the Merging Spirit Formation, this powerful ice spear was instantly conjured.
Wu Bingji looked up, his eyes locking onto the Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster opposite him in an instant, with a glimmer of purplish-gold light flickering quietly in his blue pupils.
The Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster instantly felt a shiver down its spine and let out a deep roar. Opening its mouth, a dark purple orb of light was spat out, shooting straight at Wu Bingji. Four other dark purple orbs were also spat out from the mouths of the other four Demon Tiger Monsters. With the boost of their Domains, the orbs grew larger as they flew, heading straight for Wu Bingji.
Wu Bingji grasped the ice spear he had just conjured in his right hand, with the ice-blue light around him and the golden Array Plate beneath him violently surging. In that instant, despite facing the overwhelming dark assault from the opposite side, he stood proud like a God of War.
The five orbs were almost upon him in an instant, and at that moment, Wu Bingji finally made his move, throwing the ice spear in his hand like lightning, cleaving through the sky.
The foremost dark orb of the Ninth Stage was pierced instantly by the ice spear, which then twisted eerily a few times, successively piercing the five orbs before they all froze in place. They exploded only after a moment, following the flight of the ice spear.
The spiraling trajectory of the ice spear was nothing short of miraculous, and when the final dark orb was penetrated, the ice spear also exploded thunderously.
The Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster was now less than thirty meters from Wu Bingji and was preparing to pounce with accelerated speed when suddenly, an intense chill reached in front of it.
It was an odd ice needle, about a foot long, with a body clear and ice-blue. If one did not look closely, it was almost imperceptible. Even more terrifying was that up until it got close, its presence was completely concealed. Only upon proximity did the terrifying aura become suddenly perceptible.
It was too fast, so fast that even the Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster couldn\'t react in time.
In the critical moment, the Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster\'s body surface surged with a layer of purplish-black light. At the same time, it tried to twist its body and use its right claw to strike at the Large Ice Needle.
However, the ice needle\'s speed still exceeded its expectations. "Puff!" The ice needle pierced through its body.
The shot hit the Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster\'s right shoulder blade. Although it avoided a vital area, in that instant, the Demon Tiger Monster felt both its body and heart turn cold.
The next moment, it was already channeling its bloodline power to its shoulder, trying to counteract the impact. However, it couldn\'t avoid the Ice Blast technique.
Despite the ice needle being partially melted by the protective power of darkness within its domain, and despite the darkness power doing its best to preserve its body, under the powerful explosion, the Demon Tiger Monster\'s right shoulder still violently burst open. At the same time, half of its body was sealed in ice, and its forward-charging figure fell to the ground.
The might of this spear was incredible. Even though it hadn\'t taken the Demon Tiger Monster\'s life, with the second acceleration and its own formidable piercing ability, it had already inflicted serious damage on it.
The Fifth Stage Demon Tiger Monster\'s injuries caused the entire Dark Domain to collapse significantly, and the other four Eighth Stage Demon Tiger Monsters also decelerated instantly, closing in towards the Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster.
Wu Bingji\'s face remained expressionless as he grasped at the air with his right hand, and another ice spear had already materialized in his grip. In that moment, with the purification of Ninth Stage peak elemental power, it rapidly turned into the same ice-blue color as the previous one.
Cold ice under command! That was what Wu Bingji felt at the moment.
As the Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster\'s body was frozen, the spectators were already in an uproar.
No one had expected the battle to turn out like this. Even those spectators who had seen the Shrek squad\'s matches before couldn\'t imagine that after just over ten days apart, the Shrek squad had undergone such a qualitative change.
This transformation was shockingly profound. The Merging Spirit Array Disk, which hadn\'t appeared before, had now directly altered the Shrek squad\'s approach.
You see, for the Monsters, there is a big difference between Ninth Stage and peak Ninth Stage. Peak Ninth Stage is just one step away from God Rank. It\'s almost impossible for existences at this level to participate in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena because they are usually preparing for Tribulation to become gods. Who would have the inclination to earn money here?
Yet, Wu Bingji\'s current state had been elevated to the peak of Ninth Stage with the assistance of the Array Plate. And although the Demon Tiger Monster had strong bloodline powers, it had only entered the Ninth Stage not long ago. Moreover, Wu Bingji\'s control over the ice spear and ice needle was learned from the First-Generation God King Tang San, which led to the instant collapse of the adversary at the first strike.
As Bingji readied the ice spear once more, he seemed to disregard the other four Eighth Stage Demon Tiger Monsters, his Spiritual Power remaining locked on the Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster. He knew very well that as long as he could kill the Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster, victory would be assured. With the Purple Demon Eyes\' lock-on, his ice spear could not possibly be dodged—at least, not by the Demon Tiger Monster.
"Roar!" The Ninth Stage Demon Tiger Monster let out an almost insane roar, its sudden injury awakening its ferocity. The Dark Domain surged violently, and a halo like a black flame rippled over the bodies of the five Demon Tiger Monsters. A huge black tiger shadow was born within the domain.
This shadow was a full fifteen meters long, with a shoulder height of over seven meters— an immensely large black tiger that frantically absorbed the power of darkness in the air to grow stronger.
This was the Demon Tiger Monster\'s trump card and the peak manifestation of its domain\'s power—summoning the Dark Tiger.
