It was plain that Tigris did not wish to harm Jared but instead wanted to control him and obtain his physical body.
The imprint began to spread rapidly within the latter's mind upon entering his body as if to control his thoughts.
Jared smirked. A burst of golden light flashed across his subconscious and instantaneously subdued the imprint. Tigris' scowl became more pronounced than ever.
"Who the h*ll are you? How is your spiritual sense this powerful?" he asked with astonishment. "This isn't possible in this day and age."
"Who I am is not important. The pertinent question is who you are. Why did you consume the islanders' spiritual sense using those stone statues? What is your purpose for doing so?" Jared interrogated Tigris sternly.
Tigris' eyes widened. "How do you know all of that? Yes, everybody here gave me their powers. I taught them to harness their spiritual energy to prepare them for a journey of cultivation. I also have rid them of disease and added decades to their lives. Why shouldn't I absorb some of their spiritual energy in return? I am a god here. Everything they have belongs to me."
A faint glow began to appear around Tigris following those words.
Terrell and Norm fell to their knees at that sight and pressed their foreheads to the ground in reverence.
Jared, however, scoffed. "There's no way a demon beast like you can have such power. Stop tooting your own horn and tell me who is really behind this."
"How dare you claim that I, an immortal, am a demon beast!" Tigris raged.
"You are a bold one, Jared," Terrell admonished. "It is only by the grace of Tigris that we have all that we do here. He is the deity on Encanta Island, and I can prove it. Things will only end one way for you if you go against him."
Jared snorted. "What a joke to worship a talking tiger."
"Insolence! I will show you the true extent of my power for your blasphemy!"
Tigris unleashed his wrath by waving his hand at Jared, attempting to harm him. His body was glowing faintly like an actual divine being.
