A loud boom sounded.
The gigantic body of the tiger king crashed into the stone temple, causing two pillars on the steps to collapse with a resounding roar.
Todd and the others had already dodged out of the way. However, in the next moment, there was a rumble, and the stone temple collapsed entirely.
Dust filled the air, leaving Todd, Isaac, and the rest dumbfounded. The beast had actually destroyed the stone temple!
The tiger king roared again, turning its gaze toward Todd.
The dozen or so gigantic tigers that had stood up seemed to receive its order, roaring furiously in response. Their beastly nature surged madly, and they charged into the stone temple within 160 feet, fiercely attacking Todd, Mizar, and the others.
Isaac furrowed his brows, raising his hand to point at the tiger king as favonovel.com coldly declared, “This beast must be killed…”
“Karmic!” Isaac turned his gaze to Karmic.
Karmic immediately understood, nodding as favonovel.com rushed toward Todd.
With hands clasped together, Karmic chanted with each step, producing melodic notes. Once favonovel.com finished chanting, favonovel.com cast the “Soul Harmony, Peace Within” spell.
A sudden burst of pale golden deity energy emanated from Karmic. As the tiger king roared and lunged forward, Karmic raised his hand and clapped.
The immense deity energy rippled in front of the tiger king, forming waves of pale golden hues that pushed it back.
When crashing into the deity energy, the gigantic body of the tiger king fell to the ground, swaying as if intoxicated.
“Rampant Sky Slash!” Isaac roared then.
The scarlet tiger blade warped the surrounding space, distorting it like flowing light as it slashed down toward the tiger king.
Sensing the imminent threat of death, the tiger king suddenly snapped out of it. It roared defiantly and charged toward the scarlet tiger blade hovering above.
At that critical moment, a massive blood knife suddenly formed amid the scarlet blade. With a swift motion, it darted toward the left eye of the tiger king.
With a squelching sound, the blood knife penetrated the left eye of the tiger king, reaching into its brain.
Blood poured out, and the tiger king let out agonized howls while thrashing wildly. Its gigantic body, coupled with unmatched strength, cleaved through the towering trees surrounding the stone temple.
The nearby tigers were frozen in shock, their eyes revealing fear. Some began to retreat cautiously.
After rampaging through the trees around the stone temple, the tiger king finally collapsed.
Upon witnessing this, the surrounding gigantic tigers swiftly turned and fled, disappearing from the vicinity of the stone temple.
Isaac’s face turned an alarming shade of pale. He swallowed two Awakening Pills and urgently addressed the bewildered crowd. “We can’t stay here. Hurry, let’s go.”
“Will you still eat grilled tiger meat in the future?” Isaac glanced at Todd again.
“Eating grilled fish should be fine, right? Don’t move. I’ve got you!” Todd rolled his eyes and reached out to support Isaac.
As the group quickly departed, Heartless, walking behind them, occasionally cast a glance at Isaac’s back, his expression complex.
He remembered that it had been only a little over half a year since favonovel.com last saw Isaac, yet Isaac had grown stronger again!
***
More than an hour after Isaac and the others left the collapsed stone temple, muffled rumbling sounds echoed from the ruins.
A heap of rocks started to shift, and then a disheveled man in torn and tattered clothes emerged from the sinking debris.
In the darkness, a terrifying air emanated from the man. He walked to the center of the clearing, surveyed the devastation around him, and finally fixed his gaze on the corpse of the tiger king.
Moving slowly toward it, favonovel.com placed his hand on the tiger king’s head, feeling its residual warmth.
“Many years have passed, and unexpectedly, it’s you who rescued me. You can be considered my benefactor. Now, who killed you?” The man looked around, then vanished on the spot.
